were thus caught in the wreck , but not in
jured.

An Unrounded Humor.
A great deal of excitement was occosiouci
'
on the streets yesterday morning by th'o re
port that a double drowning had occurred nl
Lake Mamuva Sunday night during tin
storm. A trip to the lake failed to verify tin
report. As nearly as could bo ascertained
the report was started through the finding o
an empty boat which washed ashore. 1
seems that n man nnd u woman pulled awnj
from the north shore In that boat shortly before
fore the storm burst and have not been sect
since.
It Is believed that they had not gone fai
nnd that they returned to the shore , landiiu
ns best they could nnd turning the bon' '
adrift. In their haste to reach a spot sheltcrci
from the driving rain. It was regarded as
] Kssllilo that they might have reached UK
south shore und remained there all night , bill
no 0110 had appeared from * that , side up U
yesterday afternoon , nnd It was not knowr
what had occurred thero. This theory 1 ;
regarded as Improbable , as they would * nol
have drifted back across the lake against tlu
heavy wind. The names of the parties an
unknown , but Is not believed that they were
drowned.

afternoon Smith , government leader , nn
nonnccd that the government had decided t
wltiidruw the license clause of the -local tnxn
tlon bill. Smith said the government hai
arrived nt the conclusion that It would bo Im
possible to pass the license olalis
In Its entirety. [ Prolonged opposltloi

proposals : 1. A certain portion o
the new taxation of Intoxicants was to be np
preprinted for the purpose of oxtlngulshliu
licenses. ! i. Power wns to conferred 01
county councils to purchase nnd extlngulsl
licenses. ! l. That the issue of new license :
was to bo suspended. The first proposal hue
received the assent of the house , so far a ;
England was concerned. The government
would proceed with the proposal as to Scot
land and Ireland. With the second proposal
the government would not proceed
but would ask the house to allow
the money for the extinction of license.1
to nccumulato until parliament should direct
otherwise. [ Opposition cheers. ] The third
proposal would stand.
Gladstone expressed partial satisfaction nl
Smith's amendment , but said the proposed
amendment threatened difficulty. Its cntlic
withdrawal would simplify debate.
Smith said ho appreciated the spirit In
which Gladstone siiolce , but the government
could not disregard the fact that the principle
of the purchase had received the approval ol
n largo majority of the house. [ Cries ol

NuinlicrB ol' Them In Chicago
DlKoiiHHliiK the Project.
CHICAGO , June 23. A largo number of
world's fair commissioners , representing
various states , have arrived in Chicago and
tonight In all the hotels world's fair matters
are being very generally discussed. Among
the most interesting conferences was that
between Joseph Hirst of Tampa , Fla. ,
and A. S. Mercer of Cheyenne , Wyo.
Hirst had much to do with the allotment ol
space at the centennial and almost entire
charge of the recent Piedmont exposition at
Atlanta. In talking of the matter of a site
Mr. Hirst said : "If we can be convinced
that the lake front can bo obtained legally
and will revert to Chicago as a park after the
fair Is over I don't think there will be a dis
senting voice. This , however , providing
there is room enough. "
"There's the trouble , " said Mercer. "I don't
think wo ought to open the doors with less
than ono thousand acres. Just look at the
number of states demanding ten acres each.
Some of them propose to do wonderful things
with that space. Utah proposes to reproduce
Salt Lake and the country before and after
irrigation , und with an exhibition of the irri
gation process. Colorado will reproduce her
mines and build a mineral palace. California
will make woudcrlul exhibits. "
"Well , If they really mean to occupy all
the space they ask for the lake front will certainly ,
tainly not be sufficient , " said Mr. Hirst ,
"and I am utterly opposed to dividing the ex
hibit. "
The gentleman also discussed the recent
sensational charges regarding the lake front.
Mr. Hirst said : "You may rest assured that if
there is any danger of that spot being ruined
for any purpose for which the city may dc-
sire it the commissioners will not aid any
such schemes. "

much injured and thousands of acres of
small grain are entirely ruined.
Corn will nrobubly average about half n
crop. Some cattle and many hogs were
[ frowned. A brickyard belonging to
John Sherbahm was totally ruined.
Several houses were blown down in the
country and some were burned by lightning.
So far no lives nro reported lost. It is iin-
liossiblo at this time to state the amount of
[ lamago done.
The small crooks nro out of their banks
nnd in many places over a milo wide and
many farms nro inundated. This loss will bo
i heavy blow to many , as this county wns

made arrangements for its disposal.

Comparatively Little Damage Done by Sunday Night's Storm,
SOME EXCEEDINGLY NARROW ESCAPES
An Odyssean Memorial
Communication Department at H.E.
An Unfounded Storm Notice.
The result of Sunday night's storm was apparent on every hand yesterday morning, although the damage done was not heavy. Trees in all parts of the city were broken, twisted, and shattered. The napaved streets in the upper portion of the city were quite badly washed and gullied, and the dirt from them was deposited on the granulated and block paving in the central part of the city. The washed-out paving on North Second and Harrison streets and Park avenue was found scattered along Washington avenue and along the bank of Indian creek in the lower part of the city. Comparatively little of the paving was washed away, but the streets were considerably damaged by the water underlying that which remained, making it difficult to drive over it. It will be found necessary to relay a great deal of it on this account. The washed-out places were repaired yesterday morning, new block was begun, dropped in, and covered with sand. This method of repairing caused a general howl. The property owners claim that the paving is now in such condition that another heavy rain would carry out the paving on the whole street. They say that in many places the blocks were raised up by the water but were not carried out, and that gravel lodged under many of the blocks when they fell back, which leaves an inviting passage way for the next heavy rain.
The street supervisor had a large force of men at work yesterday cleaning away the mud and putting the streets and sidewalks in passable condition. The damage from the wood collars was very slight.
The fire and police alarm circuits were broken, but were all repaired by yesterday noon.
A large limb was torn from a cottonwood tree on South Ninth Street between Second and Third Avenues, which broke the wires and split one of the crossarms. It was a noticeable fact that the cottonwoods suffered heavily, and caused nearly all the damage that was done to the wires. A fireman expressed a wish that the council would pass an ordinance condemning all cottonwood trees along public streets, for this reason.
The lightning struck the north Main Street marble works, stunning the foreman of the works and knocking him down. He was not severely injured, and was feeling nearly as well as usual yesterday. The building was not damaged with the exception of the chimney. Waterman's carriage factory was uninjured with the exception of a prostrated lightning rod.
Miss Lillie Gilson, residing with her mother at 926 West Lincoln Avenue, was severely shocked by the lightning while returning home from the Methodist church, and was precipitated into the gutter which was full of water. She would undoubtedly have drowned had not help arrived. She soon recovered, and was able to be about yesterday.

It Was a Narrow Escape.
The family of Robert G. Kirkwood, Jr., in Crescent Township, had a narrow escape from death during the storm. A large cottonwood tree standing near the house fell with a crash upon the building, demolishing it. It was a one-and-a-half story frame house, in the house at the time were Mr. and Mrs. Kirkwood and six children. The upper floor fell in such a peculiar manner as to form an arch, preventing the great tree from crushing through to the lower door. The family were thus caught in the wreck, but not injured.
St. Francis Academy.
The nineteenth annual commencement of St. Francis academy takes place in the commencement hall Thursday evening. The art exhibition will be open all of Thursday, also after the exercises are over. These annual showings of paintings, needlework, etc., are growing more and more in merit and interest. Every admirer of the fine arts will find a treat at the academy and the display should not be forgotten. The musical and literary entertainment in the evening will doubtless draw the usual crowd.

Deplored Oddfellowship,
The Oddfellows of this city joined Sunday afternoon in paying more tribute to their deceased brothers, the occasion being the annual conformance to the provision made by the grand lodge. Dr. James McXuuthohton presided, C.H. Warren occupied the chair of vice grand. Miss Katie White served as organist, L.O. Huff as chaplain, Mr. J.J. Watt as musical director and Miss Barbara Anderson at the piano.
After the ritualistic services Hon. D.C. Bloomer spoke feelingly in memory of the deceased members of Council Bluffs lodge No. 4, among those being James D. Test, George Doughty and F.A. Burke. Mr. Bloomer is one of the oldest and most honored of the members of the order and his long active association with the brethren rendered it most fitting that he should speak of their merits. His address was full of his thorough interest.
Mr. O.L. Jacobs took in eulogy of the departed members of Hawkeye lodge No. 181, it was a tender tribute.
Mr. John Schlickmann named on behalf of Humboldt Ledge No. 174. Mrs. J.M. Matthews gave an address in behalf of Council Bluffs Hookah Degree Lodge No. Only ten of its members had died in twenty-two years. The exercises closed with the ritualistic service provided for such occasions and a general lecture by L.C. Huff. Music interspersed the program. Dr. H.S. West, the grand steward and bridge work, No. 13 Pearl. An Unrounded Humor. A great deal of excitement was occasioned on the streets yesterday morning by the report that a double drowning had occurred at Lake Manawa Sunday night during the storm. A trip to the lake failed to verify the report. As nearly as could be ascertained, the report was started through the finding of an empty boat which washed ashore. It seems that a man and a woman pulled away from the north shore in that boat shortly before the storm burst and have not been seen since. It is believed that they had not gone far and that they returned to the shore, landing as best they could and turning the boat adrift. In their haste to reach a spot sheltered from the driving rain, it was regarded as possible that they might have reached the south shore and remained there all night, but no one had appeared from that side up until yesterday afternoon, and it was not known what had occurred there. This theory was regarded as improbable, as they would not have drifted back across the lake against the heavy wind. The names of the parties are unknown, but it is not believed that they were drowned. The Manhattan sporting headquarters, 418 B-Minstrels June 1, "Black Friday" fun local hits, Ha, 1st Hughes hall. Fritz GOON Gree. The trial of the Sunday shaving cases was had before Justice Schurz yesterday afternoon, and the defendant secured a jury trial. The twelve men summoned as jurors were Bert Evans, W.H. Dooley, Oscar Kelley, J.A. Murphy, Max Molina, J. Neumayer, Ed Hayes, J.F. Kimball, H. Friedman, George H. Champ, Thomas Bowman, and A.T. Elwell, and the latter six gentlemen were finally selected. The only witness examined was Mr. Bernhard himself, and the case was submitted to the jury after a short argument by Mr. West, who appeared for the defendant. The jury was out just four minutes and returned a verdict for Sunday shaving. Will Supp lost a bet of cigars for the crowd, as he firmly believed that it would take live minutes in which to arrive at a verdict. This settles all of the cases in that court on this question, but another one against the same defendant will be tried Thursday before Judge McGee.

LONG TERM, June 31. In the commons this afternoon, Smith, government leader, announced that the government had decided to withdraw the license clause of the local tax reform bill. Smith said the government had arrived at the conclusion that it would be impossible to pass the license clauses in their entirety. [Prolonged opposition cheers.] The clause contained three proposals: 1. A certain portion of the new taxation of intoxicants was to be preprinted for the purpose of distinguishing licenses. 2. Power was to be conferred on county councils to purchase and extinguish licenses. 3. That the issue of new licenses was to be suspended. The first proposal has received the assent of the house, so far as England was concerned. The government will proceed with the proposal as to Scotland and Ireland. With the second proposal, the government will not proceed but will ask the house to allow the money for the extinction of licenses to accumulate until parliament should direct otherwise. [Opposition cheers.] The third proposal will stand.
Gladstone expressed partial satisfaction with Smith's amendment, but said the proposed amendment threatened difficulty. Its earlier withdrawal would simplify debate.
Smith said he appreciated the spirit in which Gladstone spoke, but the government could not disregard the fact that the principle of purchase had received the approval of a large majority of the house. [Cries of "only four."] At all events, the money accumulated would be at the disposal of parliament. Smith moved the appointment of a select committee to inquire into the subject of the continuance of bills from session to session. Agreed to.
Replying to a delegation of publicans in the lobby tonight, Hitchcock, president of the local government board, said the principle of compensation for the extinction of licenses had been accepted by the house and the money accumulated would be devoted to that purpose.
AMERICAN COMMISSIONERS.
Numerous of Them in Chicago
Discussing the Project.
CHICAGO, June 23. A large number of world's fair commissioners, representing various states, have arrived in Chicago and tonight in all the hotels world's fair matters are being very generally discussed. Among the most interesting conferences was that between Joseph Hirst of Tampa, Fla., and A. S. Mercer of Cheyenne, Wyo. Hirst had much to do with the allotment of space at the centennial and almost entire charge of the recent Piedmont exposition at Atlanta. In talking of the matter of a site, Mr. Hirst said: "If we can be convinced that the lake front can be obtained legally and will revert to Chicago as a park after the fair is over I don't think there will be a dissenting voice. This, however, providing there is room enough."
"There's the trouble," said Mercer. "I don't think we ought to open the doors with less than one thousand acres. Just look at the number of states demanding ten acres each. Some of them propose to do wonderful things with that space. Utah proposes to reproduce Salt Lake and the country before and after irrigation, and with an exhibition of the irrigation process. Colorado will reproduce her mines and build a mineral palace. California will make wonderful exhibits."
"Well," said Mr. Hirst, "if they really mean to occupy all the space they ask for the lake front will certainly not be sufficient, and I am utterly opposed to dividing the exhibit."
The gentleman also discussed the recent sensational charges regarding the lake front. Mr. Hirst said: "You may rest assured that if there is any danger of that spot being ruined for any purpose for which the city may desire it the commissioners will not aid any such schemes."

NEW YORK, June 31. The tug boat Atlantic E Cruse, owned by Thomas O'Brien of this city, was blown to pieces at her dock in Brooklyn by the explosion of the boiler early this morning.

The fireman, supposed to be killed also, is missing. A ballast scow which was lying alongside the tug had her side torn out and went to the bottom. It is supposed that the watchman on board, whose name is not known, went down with her.

Jeffrey Will Not Accept.
CHICAGO, June 23. [Special Telegram to THE BKI:] Said ex-Goncnil Manager E.T. Jeffrey of the Illinois Central to THE BRI: correspondent today in answer to a question: "Whether or not I shall accept the vice presidency of the Lake Shore is not determined. In any event, I shall under no circumstances accept the office of director general of the world's fair. I could not do so in justice to my own business interests. Of course, I have the interests of the exposition deeply at heart and will help all I can, short of accepting an office which will occupy the major part of my time.
The Grant locomotives works will mostly be removed to Chicago and occupy the pretty green tract of land as contemplated." Mr. Jeffrey declared he had not decided to accept any present offer. His most intimate friends say he would accept the vice presidency of the Lake Shore if he were allowed to keep his office in Chicago. As President Newell insists he must go to Cleveland, however, he will accept the office of general manager of the Grant locomotive works instead.
The world's fair directors are almost unanimous in choosing him for director general, and are in hopes the Grant offer will be held open for him until the close of the world's fair.
They Meet the Grand Trunk Rates.
CHICAGO, June 23. [Special Telegram to THE BRI: Tho:] central traffic lines today met the Grain Trunk rate of 1 3 cents on dressed beef, Chicago to Boston, at the same time the cattle rates were reduced to 11.1 cents. It is not thought the dressed beef rate will fall below 1 1 cents, as contracts with shippers have been made at that figure. If rates go below 1 cents it will be for the purpose of making competitors take the business, as a 30 cent rate even will be a losing rate.
Moody Was Discharged.
CHICAGO, June 23. The case of the Michigan Central railroad officials, who have been on trial in the United States court for an alleged violation of the interstate commerce law, closed this afternoon. Judge Blodgett discharged General Freight Agent McKay, there being no evidence to show that he had any guilty knowledge of the violation of the law in the case. The cases of Messrs. Nichols and Summers were taken under advisement.
THE
Hon. George W. McCrary Dies Away at St. Louis, Mo.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 23. Hon. George W. McCrary of Kansas City died in this city this afternoon. Mr. McCrary has been afflicted for some time with a tumor in his stomach. Mr. McCrary was sixty-four years old. He was born at Evansville, Ind. In 1831 (he went with his parents to that part of Wisconsin territory which afterwards became the state of Iowa and began the practice of law at Keokuk in 1850. He soon took high rank. In 1857 he was a member of the state legislature and from 1861 to 1865 state senator from Keokuk and chairman of the committee on military affairs. In 1865 he was elected to congress and served until March, 1877. In 1877 Judge McCrary introduced in congress the noted electoral commission bill. When President Hayes formed his cabinet McCrary was given the war portfolio, which he held for two years. He resigned to accept the judgeship of the United States court, to which he was appointed in December, 1879. In March, 1881, he resigned the judgeship and removed from Keokuk to Kansas City, where he became general consulting attorney of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad company, which position he occupied at the time of his death.
Interment will be at Keokuk Wednesday.
Hoosier Y., June 23. ) Patrick Barry died today, aged seventy-four. Barry has written a number of books on tree raising, the most valuable being the catalogue of the American Pomological society, which was accepted as a guide by American fruit growers and is regarded as a standard authority throughout the world.
MACADAMER'S GRAND FEAT.
He Swims the East River Bound Hand and Foot.
NEW YORK, June 23. [Special Telegram to The BRI:] "Geno" Macadear, the champion long distance swimmer of St. Louis, swam across the East river yesterday for the second time. This time he was bound with a rope from his ankles to his shoulders. His feet were tied together and his hands were fastened tightly at his sides. In each hand he carried a two-pound dumbbell, either of which would have sunk an ordinary swimmer.
The distance covered was canal to aboard twice the width of the river at Grand street
He left the navy yard and landed at Pier No. 7, East river, three-quarters of an hour later.
He was accompanied by Steve Brodie. The party rowed out to a point opposite Cole dock, followed by a multitude of small craft. When the desired point had been reached Brodie dropped over the bow of the boat and Macadear tumbled over the side. He landed on his face, but turned over and struck out for the other side, swimming by drawing his feet and knees up to his waist and then kicking mightily with straightened legs out backwards. The stroke was a powerful one and at times the swimmer threw his shoulders out of the water. The swimmer was completely surrounded by boats and some boys in an old skiff, in their attempt to get near, ran over and nearly succeeded in drowning him. Macadear was not injured however, and swam sturdily on. The tide was ebbing and he was carried down the river. In trying the rope no allowance had been made for shrinkage by the water, and when Macadear was taken out it was found that his limbs and arms were badly cut. The mail over the distance, about a mile, in forty-six minutes.

GIVE THE WOMAN IN TRUG A HAND.
A Train Robber Dies and His Wife is Con conversion.
TEXARKANA, Ark., June 23. Friday night Hatchett, the wounded train robber, died.
His wife then made a full statement to the authorities that Williams, Brownley, and Mel-Daniel, assisted by her husband, committed the robbery and Katella was accidentally shot in the darkness, being mistaken for one of the train men. All this has created tremendous excitement owing to the speed standing of the robbers in the community hereto-fore. When they were brought in for preliminary trial today they withdrew their plea of not guilty and waived examination. They have been taken to Bonham, Tex., for safe keeping, as lynching was feared here.

The Storm at Wiima. WAYNE, Neb., June 3. [Special telegram to The Brand.] The most destructive storm that has ever visited this section struck here last night. The track is washed out west and under water east of town. Corn is very much injured and thousands of acres of small grain are entirely ruined.
Corn will probably average about half a crop. Some cattle and many hogs were drowned. A brickyard belonging to John Sherburn was totally ruined.
Several houses were blown down in the country and some were burned by lightning. So far no lives are reported lost. It is impossible at this time to state the amount of damage done.
The small creeks are out of their banks and in many places over a mile wide and many farms are inundated. This loss will be a heavy blow to many, as this county was figuring on an immense crop and many had made arrangements for its disposal.

Previous to tlm ceremony tlm 'Jord cham

MEXICAN JtKl'OItV'fioKlS'fS.
Great Kxclteinent In Moxicmi States
lUmleriiif ; the lUo Grande.
ST. Louis , Mo. , Juno ! & . A special from
San Antonio , Tex. , says : Koports which arc
absolutely reliable have reached San Antonio
of seditious and revolutionary movements
going on in the states of Mexico bordering ou
tlm Hlo Grande , and itseems the utmost folly
for tlm papers , however friendly to Mexico
and the Diaz administration , to longer
suppress tlm news. This movement Is not
confined to any locality , but is undoubtedly
widespread as far as tlm border states are
concerned. Constable Mntincz of tlm state of
Mucvo Leon describes a threatening condition
of government affairs observed all along his
voute up the Hio Grande to Saltillo. Ho says
that at nearly every station and side track
along the Mexican 'National railroad ho
siw crowds of men congregated and excitedly
discussing the advisability of Joining a ro-
bollinn nirninst the federal trovcinmcnt.
When ho left Laredo this morning a courier
had Just arrived bearing information of a
band of flfty men , well organized and armed ,
who had crossed tlm Hio Grande from tlm
Texas side en route to some point In the
interior of Nuovo Leon , where the revolu
tionary forces nro massing iu largo numbers
to ilrit march on to Saltillo , the capital of
that state , and rout a contingent of the
DhM army stationed there to suppress mu
tinies.
All the telegraph lines in Mexico nro under-
the rigid control of tlm federal government
and it is practically impossible to got any
direct information.
Tlm cause of tlm trouble is the strong ecu- ,
trallzlng tendencies of the DIuz government.

BRADSIIAW'S ' PLEA FOR AID.
It Will Bo Libanlly Responded" to B/
Omaha's Generous Oitizons.
ACTION AT LAST NIGHT'S ' MASS MEETING ,
An Organized KfCort to Ho tMntlo t
Hellovo tlio HufTerliiKs ( if tlm
Victims oi'thn llccent
Cyclone.
The meeting called for lust night nt tha
bonnl of trade room tiki not roull/o the ex
pectations of those who issued the call , us tlm
nttondnnrovns very slight.
Mr. II. T. Clttrko was made chairman , and
the meeting resolved tt.sclf Into an Informal
body nnd discussed the situation. Messrs.
Clarke , Huchaiiun , 1'errlno , Savldge , Diet * ,
Nnson and Hloomer , of those \v ! > o wont to
Bradshnw , were present and related such Ue-
talls of the situation as had couio under .their
personal observation.
The prevailing Idea was that Immediate
netlou In affording- relief was necessary and
the best way to make tlm relief enicaelOus
was freely discussed ,
Mr. NIISOII suggested that It would bo n
peed Idea to have a list prepared of these
who were destitute and also of ttm article *
most neeiled , so that an Idea might be formed
of what was needed.
Mr. Clarke said he had observed that thcro
was tui entire lack of system In the dlstrllm-
button of supplies which had already twen
sent to Uradslmw , and suggested that HOIIUI
system should be adopted so that these \Vho
wow In the greatest need should receive at
tention first.
Other citizens having come in , the mccliiiR
was called to order and Mr. liuclmnmt ad
dressed the meeting , stating what the
committee had seen at Diiul-
shaw. In the residence portion
of the town thorn were no buildings loft
standing , and In the entire town not a single
building was in such shape as to bo lit for oc
cupancy. The people were entirely destitute
and had very little money. Their goods were
scattered far and near , and what , little money
the people had was being used very econom
ically to assist these who most needed It. Tlm
town itself would have to bo entirely rebuilt.
The Congregational church had been lifted
from Us place and scattered all about , nothing
being left except the lloor. The Methodist
church was In the same shape.
Tlm school house , which had Just been com
pleted , was blown entirely down. This had
just biou erected , and the school district
bonded to the full limit of the law , so tlm't it
would bo impossible to creel another without
outside help.
A very careful estimate , Mr. Buclmmm
said , placed the amount of destruction nt
about 75 or W percent ol the possessions ot
the people.
The lumber nf which the buildings had been
constructed hud been splintered and twisted
so that It was Impossible to use It again.
What the people needed , ho said , wan
household goods of all de ; > cripttons , tinware ,
clothing , and so on indefinitely
Kev. Charles Bavldgo related several Inci
dents which showed tlm loreo of the storm.
Horses had their legs twisted olT. earriagu
wheels had the hubs nnd spokes twisted out ,
etc. Mr. Savutgo said the people needed
boots and shoes , crockery and food. The
railroads , lie said , had agreed to transport all
goods free of charge.
Mr. Diet. ! said that lumber was very cheap
now and several carloads might bo sent out
with some cnrponters , who could erect n f nv
houses to relieve the immediate needs of the
people.
On motion of Mr. Buchanan an oxecutlvo
committee , consisting of II. T. Clarke , Her
man Kountzc , A. P. Hopkins , II. Dolln and
T. II. McCii uo , w.us appointed to have
charge of money which might bo raised and
til.so have authority to secure , by purchase or
otherwise , suehs aiticlo and in such quanti
ties as the needs of the Uraduhaw people de
manded , and to piocure lumber for building.
A soliciting committee , consisting ot the
representatives of the various trades , was ap
pointed to solicit contributions and turn
them over to the executive committee. The
chair appointed on this committee M. A. Up-
ton , . ] . B. Kvans , C. N. DieU , Charles \V.

E. H. Sothcrn played "Lord Chumloy" at
Boyd's ' opera house last night to a very Him
audience , and his performance was greatly
enjoyed by every ono. On taking Into con
sideration the fact that this Is a most unsea
sonable time of year for indoor amusements ,
Mr. Sothern should feel complimented to
know that tlm fashionable theater-Keel's
willingly endured a disagreeable atmosphere
for the enjoyment of such line entertain
ment as ho aflords them. Tlm audience last
night was strong proof of tlm favorable 1m-
lie iniiilu In Onmlm imnn lita fliHif
visit , about one year ago. Inasmuch as Mr.
Sotlmrn's exceedingly clever and delicately
artistic impersonation of n very peculiar ,
strangely constructed character was somewhat -
what elaborated on at that time , no more
need bo said now further than that his re
ception was an enthusiastic and hearty ono.
Ho is supported by a well organized com
pany , consequently every part of tlm play
moved along in a smooth and satisfactory
manner. Mr. Sothorn had written to friends
hero that they were badly worn out from
heat and travel , and therefore could not
promise tlm ix-oplo of Omaha much of a treat ,
but it was the generally expressed opinion
that ho played more earnestly ami was
stronger In some of his scenes than before.
Will Not Shorten tlio Hussion.
LONDON , Juno lilt. There Is a consensus of
opinion that tlm government's now Jlcenso
scheme will not shorten the session of parlia
ment. It is undeniable that the entire bill
would have been dropped but for Oosclmn
and Hichle , both of whom threatened to re
sign If the bill was withdrawn. Cairn1 , mem
ber for Barrow-m-Purness , with u view to
te.stlng tlm feeling of his electorate on the
subject , resigned his seat tonight and will
seek re-election on tlm untl-gompuusatlou
programme.
At u meeting of temperance lenders tonight
n manifesto was adopted declaring that the
ovornment's scheme Is worse than worth
less. The party will continue Us all caucus
opposition to tlm measure.

Previous to the ceremony, the lord chamberlain brought a message from the queen saying that the duke of Clarence should take precedence after the duke of Connought, but before the duke of Albany in the house. The lord high "excellence" bowed in acknowledgment of the message. Then there entered a procession headed by the usher of the black rod, followed by the duke of Norfolk as the hereditary earl marshal, Baron Aveland as the hereditary lord great chamberlain and Sir Albert W. Woods.
Then came the Duke of Clarence with his sponsor, the Prince of Wales, and the Duke of Richmond attired in ducal robes. Advancing to the woolsack, the Duke of Clarence and his sponsors bowed to the Lord High Chancellor and the Duke handed to his lordship the patent granting him a peerage. The clerk of the house read the patent aloud, also the writ commanding Clarence's presence among the peers. The Duke then took the oath of office and signed the rolls of the house, after which ceremony he was conducted to the bar, where he bowed three times to the throne, the Lord High Chancellor acknowledging the salute. He was next conducted to the chair of state and shook hands with the Chancellor. Then he withdrew, accompanied by his sponsors. The Princess of Wales and her daughters and a number of peeresses witnessed the ceremony.
MEXICAN REVOLUTION.
Great Excitement in Mexican States
Under the Rio Grande.
ST. Louis, Mo., June 5. A special from San Antonio, Tex., says: Reports which are absolutely reliable have reached San Antonio of seditious and revolutionary movements going on in the states of Mexico bordering on the Rio Grande, and it seems the utmost folly for the papers, however friendly to Mexico and the Diaz administration, to longer suppress the news. This movement is not confined to any locality, but is undoubtedly widespread as far as the border states are concerned. Constable Mutineer of the state of Nuevo Leon describes a threatening condition of government affairs observed all along his route up the Rio Grande to Saltillo. He says that at nearly every station and side track along the Mexican National railroad he saw crowds of men congregated and excitedly discussing the advisability of joining a rebellion against the federal government. When he left Laredo this morning a courier had just arrived bearing information of a band of fifty men, well organized and armed, who had crossed the Rio Grande from the Texas side en route to some point in the interior of Nuevo Leon, where the revolutionary forces are massing in large numbers to brit march on to Saltillo, the capital of that state, and rout a contingent of the Diaz army stationed there to suppress mutinies.
All the telegraph lines in Mexico are under the rigid control of the federal government and it is practically impossible to get any direct information.
The cause of the trouble is the strong centralizing tendencies of the Diaz government.
North American Turnerbund.
New York, June 5. The North American Turnerbund held three sessions today. The Milwaukee Turner Zeitung was chosen as the official organ. The Turners' Mutual Benefit association of the northwest proposed the support of the turnerbund. He offered to the committee on organization, There was a long discussion on the proposition to establish a teachers' seminary in Milwaukee and consolidate with it the German-American Institute of Indianapolis. The latter has been heretofore a perambulating institution from city to city. Milwaukee, however, was finally chosen as the seat of the national institute.

HAMBURG, June 30. Twenty-five Hamburg riflemen met the Americans at Wilhelmsdorf on their arrival from New York today. There was an elaborate reception.
Of Pittsburgh Blazon, at Milwaukee, Wis., July, 1900.
For this great occasion excursion tickets will be sold from all principal points in the United States and Canada to Milwaukee and return via the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway at half rate.
All have Indications the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is the direct route to Milwaukee, and as the camp ground for the Uniformed Knights to which point coaches and trains will be sent through without transfer) In such a way that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has great advantage over other railroads which are unable to furnish such accommodations, and visiting Knights, their families and friends should bear this in mind when purchasing excursion tickets.

BRADSHAW'S PLEA FOR AID.
It Will Be Libally Responded to by Omaha's Generous Citizens.
ACTION AT LAST NIGHT'S MASS MEETING,
An Organized Effort to Help the Sufferers (of the Recent
Cyclone.
The meeting called for last night at the board of trade room took no rollo of the expectations of those who issued the call, as the attendance was very slight.
Mr. H. T. Clarke was made chairman, and the meeting resolved itself into an informal body and discussed the situation. Messrs. Clarke, Buchanan, Pernell, Savage, Dietz, Nelson and Bloomer, of those who went to Bradshaw, were present and related such facts of the situation as had come under their personal observation.
The prevailing idea was that immediate action in affording relief was necessary and the best way to make the relief beneficial was freely discussed.
Mr. Nelson suggested that it would be a good idea to have a list prepared of those who were destitute and also of the articles most needed, so that an idea might be formed of what was needed.
Mr. Clarke said he had observed that there was an entire lack of system in the distribution of supplies which had already been sent to Bradshaw, and suggested that some system should be adopted so that those who were in the greatest need should receive attention first.
Other citizens having come in, the meeting was called to order and Mr. Buchanan addressed the meeting, stating what the committee had seen at Bradshaw. In the residence portion of the town there were no buildings left standing, and in the entire town not a single building was in such shape as to be fit for occupancy. The people were entirely destitute and had very little money. Their goods were scattered far and near, and what little money the people had was being used very economically to assist those who most needed it. The town itself would have to be entirely rebuilt.
The Congregational church had been lifted from its place and scattered all about, nothing being left except the floor. The Methodist church was in the same shape.
The schoolhouse, which had just been completed, was blown entirely down. This had just been erected, and the school district had bonded to the full limit of the law, so it would be impossible to build another without outside help.
A very careful estimate, Mr. Buchanan said, placed the amount of destruction at about 75 or 80 percent of the possessions of the people.
The lumber of which the buildings had been constructed had been splintered and twisted so that it was impossible to use it again.
What the people needed, he said, was household goods of all descriptions, tinware, clothing, and so on indefinitely.
Rev. Charles Savage related several incidents which showed the force of the storm. Horses had their legs twisted off, carriage wheels had the hubs and spokes twisted out, etc. Mr. Savage said the people needed boots and shoes, crockery and food. The railroads, he said, had agreed to transport all goods free of charge.
Mr. Dietz said that lumber was very cheap now and several carloads might be sent out with some carpenters, who could erect a few houses to relieve the immediate needs of the people.
On motion of Mr. Buchanan, an executive committee, consisting of H. T. Clarke, Herman Kountze, A. P. Hopkins, H. Doll, and T. H. McCulloch, was appointed to have charge of money which might be raised and to have authority to secure, by purchase or otherwise, such article and in such quantities as the needs of the Grandview people demanded, and to procure lumber for building. A soliciting committee, consisting of the representatives of the various trades, was appointed to solicit contributions and turn them over to the executive committee. The chair appointed on this committee M. A. Upson, J. B. Evans, C. N. Dille, Charles W. Morton, Richard Smith, Charles Savidge, J. O. Phillippi, J. A. Wakelfield, M. L, Goodell, C. Paulson, John Bloomer, S. P. Morse, J. A. Fuller, Charles Hayward, and C. H. Woodman. This committee will meet at the board of trade room at 12 o'clock today.
E. H. Sothern played "Lord Chumley" at Boyd's opera house last night to a very full audience, and his performance was greatly enjoyed by everyone. On taking into consideration the fact that this is a most unreasonable time of year for indoor amusements, Mr. Sothern should feel complimented to know that the fashionable theater, Keel's, willingly endured a disagreeable atmosphere for the enjoyment of such fine entertainment as he affords them. The audience last night was strong proof of the favorable impression Mr. Sothern made during his visit, about one year ago. Inasmuch as Mr. Sothern's exceedingly clever and delicately artistic impersonation of a very peculiar, strangely constructed character was somewhat elaborated on at that time, no more need be said now further than that his reception was an enthusiastic and hearty one. He is supported by a well-organized company, consequently every part of the play moved along in a smooth and satisfactory manner. Mr. Sothern had written to friends here that they were badly worn out from heat and travel, and therefore could not promise the people of Omaha much of a treat, but it was the generally expressed opinion that he played more earnestly and was stronger in some of his scenes than before.
Will Not Shorten the Session.
LONDON, June 31. There is a consensus of opinion that the government's new License scheme will not shorten the session of parliament. It is undeniable that the entire bill would have been dropped but for Goschen and Richcll, both of whom threatened to resign if the bill was withdrawn. Cairns, member for Barrow-in-Furness, with a view to testing the feeling of his electorate on the subject, resigned his seat tonight and will seek re-election on the anti-government programme.
At a meeting of temperance leaders tonight a manifesto was adopted declaring that the government's scheme is worse than worthless. The party will continue its caucus opposition to the measure.
Knocked Down With a Billy.
John Matthews came down from Lu Mount, intending to go to work for Walker & Co., but before he had been in the city an hour, he got into trouble. At 12:30 last night he was drinking in Fred Hanckel's saloon on fourteenth street, when the bartender knocked him down with a billy, after which, he was taken to the station and placed in the hospital ward. The saloonkeeper was arrested on the charge of assaulting with intent to wound.
The Apollo Club Banquet.
The Apollo Club tendered H. P. Young, the director, a banquet at the Millard last night. About twenty-five of the club men were present and the dinner was passed in merriment and discussing the pleasant supply of good things with which the banquet table was provided.
Jumped the Track.
READING, Pa., June 33. The locomotive, baggage car, and passenger car of a southbound passenger train on the Philadelphia & Reading railroad jumped the track this morning about five miles from this city. Louis Vckley, engineer, was killed, and his brother, the conductor, probably fatally injured. Several other trainmen were injured, but no passengers were hurt.
British Opinion on Silver.
LONDON, June 31. M. de Lavelle, a distinguished economist, writes that either of the American silver bills will injure the cause of international bimetallism, but neither can possibly injure America. Of the two, he considers the free coinage bill the least harmful.
Rio, June 31. Sobrado, minister of finance, has resigned. He will be succeeded by Miguel, mayor of Granada and leader of the national labor movement. | 1 |

A BOHEMIAN O Ah A DAY.
It Is I2iijocd by Twelve Hundred I'lo-
nlocrH nt Wilder.
Eight caw nt the B. fe , M. depot were filled
with excursionists when the train pulled out
nt 8:30 : Sundny morning. The occasion was
the annual excursion of the Tclocvlcna Jed-
nota Sokol or Bohemian Turners , and n red
letter day In the calendar of the sons nnd
daughters of Bohemia. The Turners are
noted for knowing hoito 'enjoy themselves
nnd on this oec.isiou they surpassed all pre
vious occasions.
The uncomfortable heat of the day was to
some extent overcome by the pleasant breeze
excited as the train tore along between green
fields , over bridges nnd through the valley
under the guidance of Conductor E. S. Kaney
with Engineer Oleason nt the throttle. The
scats of the coaches were all lllloJ with Turn
ers In uniform and their sweethearts nnd
wives In white dresses.
At SoutU Omaha n halt was made to add
two more coaches to the train and again it
sped along to Ashland where another coach
Illlcd with excursionists from Schuylcr ,
Wuttoo and Pragun was waiting on a side
track and the incoming train was greeted
with the strains of n band of music and n
rousing cheer from the crowd on the plat
form. At Lincoln and again at Crflto addi
tions were made till when the train pulled up
on the side track opposite the beautiful grove
in n bend of the Blue river about n mile
above Wllbcr there were upwards of twelve
hundred people who stepped out eager for a
day in the woods.
The engine Jiad been gaily decorated with
the national Bohemian colors , inter
twined with the stars and stripes
and bore in front n gigantic
reproduction of the emblem of the order , the
Intertwined letters of the word sokol , in mo-
plo leaves nnd pink , white nnd yellow roses.
At every way station nnd crossing n curious
crowd gave 'the party a cheer as the train
roared past.
At the grove the party scattered first to
lunch in the many shady nooks of the place
and afterwards to such amusements as suited
them best. There was n line dancing plat
form wherd 'music was furnished to dancers
by the Bohemian bands of Omaha and Schuy
lcr. There were hammocks , swings nnd mcr-
ry-go-roumls for others. There were base
balls for others and what was of the greatest
Interest to the majority , there was such an
Immensity of grccn-carpotcd , green-domed
space no particular pair of lovers need fear
the Interference of a third party in their con
fidences.
Everything went off in the happiest man
ner , thanks to the energetic and careful man
agement of the committee John Kosicky ,
John Hoffman , Pcclval , Prelhlcr , Meckosky ,
Frank Swoboda , Hudlcck , and Charles
Burtos.
There were no disturbances nor disagree
able incidents of any sort to leave in the
minds of the picuiccrs any unpleasant memo
ries.
During the afternoon the Omaha boys had
a friendly Jumplngeontest with the following
result :
Running high Jump : First , F. .Tclen , 5 feet
1 Inches ; second , H. Havelka , 5 feet ; t inches.
Hunning long Jump : First , F. Jelen , 20

What It Costs
must bo care fully considered by the great ma
jority of people m buying even necessities of
life. Hood's Sarsaparilla commends itself
with special force to the pi-eat middle classes ;
because it combines positive economy with
great medicinal power. It is the only medi
cine of which can truly be said " 100 doses
one dollar , " and a bottle taken according to
directions will average to last a month.
WJIEKE IIAS HI2 GONE ?
AV. S. Kelly Apparently Has Deserted
Wife mill Children.
Thcro is a llttlo black-liaircil woman at 703
North Twenth-oigtith street who is in need of
help and should receive it.
Up until Juno 5 AV. S. Kelly was a foreman
at the smelting works , receiving a salary of
75 n month. He had n pleasant homo on
North Twenty-cigTitli street , was blessed
with a good wife and six obedient children ,
and everything seemed to be working pros
perously with him.
On Juno 4 bo asked his wife to show
him his accident insurance policy , which
she kept , and she did so. Ho looked
at it nnd then watched her
as she returned it to the place where it was
kept. On Juno 5 ho drew a month's pay nt
quitting time , walked away from the works.
and since that day neither his wife nor any of
his former associates have seen him. The wife
lay awake all that night awaiting him , and
the next morning visised the shops and In
quired for him , only to learn that ho hud quit
work the night before with $75 in his pocket
and had not been seen since. On returning
homo Mrs. Kelly found that her husband had
ordered and paid for at n down-town grocerv
a sack of Hour , some tea and coffee and hail
them delivered that morning , though
they had been paid for the
night before. From this and the fact
that her husband's ' accident policy had dis
appeared. Mrs. Kelly concluded that her
husb md had wilfully deserted her without
cause and has made no effort to find him.
Some Inquiry has developed the fact that
Kelly kept very fast company and spent more
than ho made , anu consequently had borrowed
more or less from his associates. The family
moved hero three years ago from Yankton , S.

John Dillon of Dubuque , In. , arrived In the

search for his wife , whom ho claims deserted

Three weeks ago a woman who gave the
name of Hanson arrived in Omaha , penniless

but us he did not arrive , the children
were taken to Couni.ll Bluffs , where they
were placed in the Orphan's home , after

Our great sale of thin coats and vests has commenced. For customers -
ers who remember our former summer sales the mere announcement
of this sale is sufficient. They know that it means an opportunity to get
their goods at about ONE-HALF THE PRICE THEY HAVE TO PAY
ELSEWHERE FOR THEM. We have this season an enormous stock ,
and it consists mostly of the better grades of goods , but these will "be
slaughtered at prices which others will charge you for inferior and low
grade goods.
Fine plain Mohair Coats and Vests in several shades at $1.75 worth
$3.BO.
Fine striped Mohair Coats and Vests in several shades at $2.28.
Very fine Drap D'Ete Coats and Vests , elegantly made up with
French facing at $3.2S ; you have to pay for similar goods fully $6.
The finest Black Serge Coats and Vests at $3.SO , worth about $7.
Very fine FrenchFlannel Coats andVests in beautiful stripes at $2.9O.
A large variety of black Alpaca Coats at $1 , $1.6O , $2 and $2.25 ; also
extra long Alpaca Coats.
To get a correct idea of the values we are offering in these goods
you must see them.
IM SUMMRJR SUITS
We will , not take any chances this time. The season promises to l e the shortest we ever had ; and we
commence an early clearance sale , We offer today two lots of suits at such reductions that buyers can
readily see the superior values we offer.
One lot , of all wool plain grey cheviot sack suits at $6.50 , This is a suit that has been made up
to retail for $12.50 to $15 ; the quality of the goods is excellent. It is lined with double warp Italian ,
made up stylish , with patched pockets , and makes a splendid business suit.
The second is a large lot of sack and frock suits of black cheviot , the most fashionable material
this season. These are made up in fine style with worsted binding and fit elegant ; the suit is worth
over $15 , and we offer them at $8.90.
Ask our salesmen to show you these suits. .
FLANNEL. SQUIRTS
It is astonishing what a quantity of flannel shirts we are selling this season. The enormous sales
induced us to buy very heavy. We have recently closed out a manufacturer's entire stock and place
them on sale today at about one half their former prices. Among the lot we offer :
70 dozen Oxford Cloth Shirts , excellent patterns , woven colors , made up with yoke and in good
style at 50c ; a few weeks ago these shirts would be considered cheap at $1.
40 dozen silk striped French Flannel Shirts at 90c ; worth $175.
Never were such bargains offered in flannel shirts as we have this week.

It has been found that the plans, as originally drawn, call for a building somewhat larger than will fit the place selected so they will be reduced, the building being 10x20 feet instead of 30x40 as first contemplated. Stockholders. Section, article 11, of the state constitution of Nebraska, reads: "In all cases of claims against corporations and joint stock associations, the exact amount justly due shall first be ascertained, and after the corporate property shall have been exhausted, the original subscribers thereof shall be individually liable to the extent of their unpaid subscriptions, and the liability for the unpaid subscriptions shall follow the stock." Dr. Birney's practice limited to catarrh and diseases of nose and throat. Book binding. The Part About the Gentleman. Mr. George W. Hopper, concerning whom an article appeared in Thursday's Biut relative to a visit of his to a Mrs. Hico, living on Sixteenth Street, and improper conduct on his part at that time, called at the Biut office and denied in toto that he had used any improper lingo with Mrs. Hico. He was looking for a client and quietly knocked at the door to ascertain about them. He referred to the client who instructed him to procure the rooms. The New Sidewalk Ordinance. The new ordinance prohibiting wooden sidewalks in the fire limits is attracting probably just a little more attention than any local law which has gone into effect for months. It provides that no sidewalks shall be constructed or reconstructed within the fire limits either in whole or in part of wood, in case of the extension of the fire limits this ordinance covers all territory included in such extension. Temporary repairs may, however, be made with wood when ordered by the sidewalk inspector. The chief of police is directed to see that the ordinance is enforced. For a violation of the ordinance, the penalty is a fine not exceeding $5 and imprisonment until the fine is paid, not exceeding thirty days. A Costly Brewery. One of Metz Brewery's brewery teams attached to a heavy malt wagon dashed up Seventh Street from Pierce about 10 o'clock yesterday, having become frightened by a noise on the street. They steered clear of obstructions, crossing a dozen of the trucks of the Union Pacific on the bottom till they reached a train of cars at Seventh and Leavenworth. The corner of the wagon struck one of the cars smashing the former and the team, dragging the hind wheels and poles, went on till they reached the Nebraska Fuel company's yards where they stumbled and fell. The wagon was wrecked. One of the horses, a fine bay, was severely injured in the head and hind leg, while the other was but slightly scratched. The damage will amount to almost $50. The team and wagon had been borrowed by a man named Jameson who was engaged in handling cordwood.
At South Omaha, a halt was made to add two more coaches to the train and again it sped along to Ashland where another coach filled with excursionists from Schulyer, Waterto and Pragun was waiting on a side track and the incoming train was greeted with the strains of a band of music and a rousing cheer from the crowd on the platform. At Lincoln and again at Creston, additions were made till when the train pulled up on the side track opposite the beautiful grove in a bend of the Blue river about a mile above Wilber, there were upwards of twelve hundred people who stepped out eager for a day in the woods.
The engine had been gaily decorated with the national Bohemian colors, intertwined with the stars and stripes and bore in front a gigantic reproduction of the emblem of the order, the intertwined letters of the word Sokol, in maple leaves and pink, white and yellow roses. At every way station and crossing, a curious crowd gave the party a cheer as the train roared past.
At the grove, the party scattered first to lunch in the many shady nooks of the place and afterwards to such amusements as suited them best. There was a dance platform where music was furnished to dancers by the Bohemian bands of Omaha and Schulyer. There were hammocks, swings and merry-go-rounds for others. There were baseballs for others and what was of the greatest interest to the majority, there was such an immensity of green-carpeted, green-domed space no particular pair of lovers need fear the interference of a third party in their confidences.
Everything went off in the happiest manner, thanks to the energetic and careful management of the committee John Kosicky, John Hoffman, Peetrval, Prelher, Meckosky, Frank Swoboda, Huckle, and Charles Burtos.
There were no disturbances nor disagreeable incidents of any sort to leave in the minds of the picnickers any unpleasant memories.
During the afternoon the Omaha boys had a friendly jumping contest with the following result:
Running high jump: First, F. Jelen, 5 feet 1 inch; second, H. Havelka, 5 feet 3 inches.
Hurdling long jump: First, F. Jelen, 20 feet 4 inches; second, R. Havelka, 19 feet 7 inches.

What It Costs must be carefully considered by the great majority of people in buying even necessities of life. Hood's Sarsaparilla commends itself with special force to the great middle classes; because it combines positive economy with great medicinal power. It is the only medicine of which can truly be said "100 doses one dollar," and a bottle taken according to directions will average to last a month.
WHERE HAS HE GONE?
AV. S. Kelly Apparently Has Deserted Wife and Children.
There is a little black-haired woman at 703 North Twenty-fourth street who is in need of help and should receive it.
Up until June 5, AV. S. Kelly was a foreman at the smelting works, receiving a salary of $75 a month. He had a pleasant home on North Twenty-fourth street, was blessed with a good wife and six obedient children, and everything seemed to be working prosperously with him.
On June 4, he asked his wife to show him his accident insurance policy, which she kept, and she did so. He looked at it and then watched her as she returned it to the place where it was kept. On June 5, he drew a month's pay at quitting time, walked away from the works, and since that day neither his wife nor any of his former associates have seen him. The wife lay awake all that night awaiting him, and the next morning visited the shops and inquired for him, only to learn that he had quit work the night before with $75 in his pocket and had not been seen since. On returning home, Mrs. Kelly found that her husband had ordered and paid for at a down-town grocery a sack of flour, some tea and coffee and had them delivered that morning, though they had been paid for the night before. From this and the fact that her husband's accident policy had disappeared, Mrs. Kelly concluded that her husband had wilfully deserted her without cause and has made no effort to find him.
Some inquiry has developed the fact that Kelly kept very fast company and spent more than he made, and consequently had borrowed more or less from his associates. The family moved here three years ago from Yankton, S.D. Kelly served a number of years in the United States army and married his wife in 1870.
1870. Mrs. Kelly is left destitute with six children on her hands.

STANDING ON HIS DIGNITY.
Holsley Will Not Allow His Work to be Made a Farce.
Mayor Holsley has sent a letter to Judge Helsley authorizing him to release P. McCoves, imprisoned for 30 days for assaulting and beating his wife.
McCoves got crazy drunk and, with a revolver, chased his wife over the prairie. When held for examination, he asked the amount of bail required and was told that $50 would do. The wife then objected that he be not admitted to bail as she feared for her life.
Two days afterwards, McCoves was examined and the wife refused to testify. He was sent to the jail for thirty days and the wife immediately petitioned for his release. She received a peremptory refusal from Judge Helsley and applied to the mayor.
Judge Helsley says he will not issue an order for the man's release and that, though he may get into trouble, he proposes to see that the work of the police court does not become a farce.

COMING UP.
Three Union Pacific officials Ascend Ladder of Promotion.
John W. Griffith, for a long time auditor of disbursements, has been appointed general purchasing agent of the Union Pacific road; Fred. B. Whitney is appointed general freight agent and J.S. Tebbets superintendent of the coal department.
These changes take effect July 1. Others are to follow, but the officials have as yet made no selections. There will be successors to Griffith as auditor of disbursements and to Whitney as assistant general freight agent at Kansas City.
The Strike of Shop Men.
The strike of Union Pacific shop men out west is confined to the shops at Laramie, Wyo.
Vice President Holcomb received a telegram yesterday informing him that twenty-three machinists and boiler makers had walked out Sunday morning on a demand for more wages. They asked 85 cents an hour, the amount paid being 60 cents.
Mr. Holcomb says that the order of reduction in hours and force has nothing to do with it. So far as he had been able to learn, the men here were satisfied, and all those who did not receive time checks Saturday night returned to work this morning.
A Union Depot Force.
The matter of joint agents, baggage men and other employees necessary to a union depot force has, it is reported, been decided upon between the Union Pacific and Burlington roads, but the officials decline to admit it. There seems to be a general understanding, however, that Jim Chambers, ticket agent, Ed. Haney, depot master of the Union Pacific, and Charles Holton, baggage master of the J. & M., will be retained. The force will not be organized for several weeks.
Edward Dickinson has been offered and has accepted a position with the Baltimore & Ohio road. A circular was issued yesterday appointing him general superintendent of all lines west of the Ohio river, with headquarters at Chicago. The appointment takes effect July 1, and on that date Mr. Dickinson will take possession of the office.
It is understood that William Anderson, traveling auditor, has been selected by the Union Pacific officials to succeed J. W. Griffith as auditor of disbursements. He is a good man and his promotion is said to be one of the most deserving of the many recently made.
For Nervous Exhaustion Use Hereford's Acid Phosphate. Dr. H. C. McCoy, Algonguin, Ia., says: "I have used it in cases of dyspepsia, nervous exhaustion and weakness with pleasant results. Also think it of great service in depressed condition of the system resulting from biliary derangement."
John Dillon of Dubuque, Ia., arrived in the city yesterday and at once commenced a search for his wife, whom he claims deserted him some time ago.
Three weeks ago a woman who gave the name of Hanson arrived in Omaha, penniless and with three small children, looking to her for support. To the authorities she stated that she was waiting for her husband, but as he did not arrive, the children were taken to Council Bluffs, where they were placed in the Orphan's home, after which the woman returned to this city and soon found employment in a Fourteenth Street chop house.
The husband tells a different story, and says that his wife employed a man by the name of Young to get him drunk, after which he was sentenced to thirty days in jail. During the time he was serving out his sentence she eloped with one of Young's friends and came to Omaha, where he deserted her.
Last night Dillon found his wife, and after a short consultation, they concluded to let the past bury the past and begin life anew.

Had washouts reported. Yesterday afternoon Superintendent Jones of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad received information that the whole country between Washington and Windside was still under water. Several bad washouts are reported, and in one place 1,200 feet of track has been carried out into a neighboring corn field. All trains were abandoned, and as the roadbed cannot be repaired until the water subsides, it will be several days before trains are again running on time.

The figure "0" in our dates will make a long stay. No man or woman now living will ever date a document without using the figure "0." It stands in the third place in 1600, where it will remain for ten years and then move up to the second place in 1900, where it will rest for one hundred years.
There is another "0" which also comes to stay. It is unlike the figure "0" in our dates in the respect that it has already moved up to the first place, where it will permanently remain. It is called the "No. 9" High Art Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine. The "No. 9" was endorsed for first place by the experts of Europe at the Paris Exposition of 1889, where, after a severe contest with the leading machines of the world, it was awarded the only Grand Prize given to family sewing machines, all other on exhibit having received lower awards of gold medals, etc. The French Government also recognized its superiority by decorating Mr. Nathaniel Wheeler, President of the company, with the Cross of the Legion of Honor.
The "No. 9" is not an old machine improved upon, but is an entirely new machine, and the Grand Prize at Paris was awarded it as the greatest advance in sewing machine mechanism of the age. Those who buy it can rest assured, that they have the very latest and best.

Kidney and bladder trouble, being due to the presence of uric acid in the blood, is most effectively cured by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Be sure you get Ayer's and no other, and take it till the poisonous acid is thoroughly expelled from the system. We challenge attention to this testimony: "About two years ago, after suffering for nearly two years from chronic kidney and bladder trouble, being able to walk only with great discomfort, and having tried various remedies, including mineral waters, without relief, I saw by an advertisement in a Chicago paper that a man had been relieved of this distressing complaint, after long suffering, by taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I then decided to make a trial of this medicine, and took it regularly for eight months, and am pleased to state that it has effected a complete cure. I have since had no return of the disease." Mrs. H. Irving Dodge, 110 West 17th St., New York.
"One year ago I was taken ill with inflammatory rheumatism, being confined to my house for six months. I came out of the sickness very much debilitated, with no appetite, and my system disordered in every way. I commenced using Ayer's Sarsaparilla and began to improve at once, gaining in strength and soon recovering my usual health. I cannot say too much in praise of this well-known medicine." Mrs. R. A. Stark, Nashua, N.H.

Habitual constipation causes derangement of the entire system, and becomes a very dangerous illness to be guarded against.
For those contending the influence of climate on health, both mental and physical, Tutt's Liver Pills are said to regulate the bowels and provide a sense of calm. "This is an age of Apollinaris Water," declares Walter Brent, emphasizing the importance of this tonic for a well-functioning body. When ordering Apollinaris, beware of imitations, as the yellow labels of the Apollinaris Company, Limited, are protected by perpetual injunctions of the Supreme Court. Look at the cork, which, if genuine, is branded with the name of the Apollinaris Company, Limited, and the words "Apollinaris Brutto" around an anchor. No ribbon on the cork indicates a spurious article.
Dr. Simons, located at 801 S. 16th St., Omaha, is a specialist in female complaints and nervous debility, crediting his success to his scientific approach and regular education as a physician.

His experience has led him to endorse the use of Tutt's Liver Pills for various symptoms, including drowsiness, irregular temper, and general malaise, emphasizing their ability to correct irregularities in the body and bring about a feeling of revitalization.

B BE. ] The exact figures on the population of
the th'rco leading cities in this census dis
trict , namely , Fremont , Grand Island and
Kearney , can not yet bo given , but TUB Bun's
correspondent learned today approximately
what they will bo. Fremont's figures will
not vary ono hundred from 0,500. Informa
tion received in different ways from Grand
Island and Kearney is to the effect that those
two cities will show about the same popula-
tlon ns Fremont , and It will probably require
the ofllclal returns from the census bureau to
determine which of the three is the largest.
It is understood from n man who has just
liccii at Kearney that the enumerators there
have been notilicd by local parties interested
In n big showing that they will bo expected to
find at least 8,000 people in that town.
The citizens of Fremont are generally dls-
nppointed at the result. Thov had good rea
son to believe that there would bo a hotter
showing. But Just now islhomoit unpro-
pltlous ttmo for counting the people In tills
city there has been In the past year. Hun
dreds of men have left the clty'tcmporr.rilv
on summer sheep drives nnd railroad work in
the Black Hills and Wyoming , where local
contractors have contracts. These liillucnces ,
together with the numbers unavoidably
missed by the enumerators , make an impor
tant difference in Fremont's showing.

There was great surprise around the house
at noon today when it was announced that the
coinage committee had held a special meeting
and agreed to report Iho silver bill with n
recommendation of non-concurrcnco in the
senate amendments and ask for a conference
committee. This action was expected , but
not so. soon.
Chairman Conger told your correspondent
yesterday that n meeting of the committee
Would not be held before the latter part of
this week and u report could not bo expected
before next week. Late last night ho was
told by the committee oti rules that it would
bo best , since there was a majority of the
house from the republican sldo in the city
mid a number wanted to leave , to get his
committee together this morning in special
meeting and report the mcasuro back for im
mediate consideration. This was done and
the bill was taken up before 2 o'clock. After
the adoption of a resolution providing that
the previous question shall bo called and a
final vote taken at 2 o'clock tomorrow after
noon , the democrats know they were in the
minority , and , us they are not together on the
subject of frco coinage any moro than the re
publicans , they made no effort to defeat the
resolution. As stated In these dispatches last
night , there is no doubt that a § 1,500,000 or
4,500,000 ounce , with u full legal tcndcrclauso
can bo easily passed in the senate now.
Senator Teller , the leading frco coinage ad
vocate in the upper branch of congress , said
this afternoon that no resistance would bo of
fered to a 4.500,000 ounce or $4,500,000 bill if
it had a full legal tender clause.
This is , however , an era of congressional
surprises and ono cannot always foretell the
changes a night or day may make.
SUllbTlTUTi : FOlt THE OUI01XAI , 1'ACKAOB HII.L.
Those who hnvo been preparing speeches to
bo delivered in the house when the bills re
sultant from the origiual package decision
should como up for action will now have to
revise them. The judiciary committee of the
house , which has been considering the Wil
son bill for the past ten days , has agreed
upon a substitute , which will upset much of
the elaborate preparation which has been
going on. In the modified form it is made
applicable not merely to liquor , as in the sen
ate bill , but to every article forming the sub
ject of interstate commerce. This is a de
cided advantage , as it relieves the measure
of any objection on the ground of being in
vidious class legislation , and it is equally applicable -
plicablo to liquor or lumber , oleomargarine or
oil , providing merely that when it has reached
its termination of transportation and is held
or exposed for sale in any state it shall bo
subject to the local laws. By a provision
more lengthy than the rest of the act the con
stitutional'principle is nfllrmed that there
shall bo no discrimination in favor of the citi
zens or product of like character of the state
where anv given article is held or offered for
sale and the rcafllnnanco of the right of police
regulation for the sake of the public health.
The bill is skillfully aud artfully drawn. It
recognizes the state's right doctrine in mat
ters of public health , a proposition that no
one would question. It leaves the opponents
of tlio measure but little ground to stand on ,
and that upon the theory that state legisla
tures , from ono cause or ( mother , might bo
induced to pass a mcasuro under the guUe of
being for the public health when such was
not the case. The ditllculties of this position
nro two-fold : First , it assumes that mem
bers of state legislatures will bo actuated by
improper motives or will bo false to their
oatlis , an assumption not tenable in law and
which no member who wants to stand solid
with his constituents can afford to put for
ward ; and , second , the proviso in the act in
regard to products of like character. Under
thi limitation the courts would undoubtedly
hold as invalid the discriminations recently
sought to1 bo placed on the statute
books of , several states against Chicago
dressed beef until it could bo
ntllrmatively shown that given shipments
whoso sale was sought to bo objected to were
in such condition us to bo injurious to health.
The vote In the committee showed that in
this new form the bill Is likely to encounter
but little opposition , Mr. Adams alone having
voted in opposition to the proposed substi
tute.

INTERSTATE COMMEUCB QUESTIONS.
Tlio commerce committee of the house devoted -
voted its entire session today to tlio consider
ation of interstate coimncrco questions in
executive session. The bill by which it is
made lawful to take evidence of railroad cases
before Justices of the peace or other properly
authorized state officers was very warmly
discussed by the friends of the bill , ns ft
would save the expense and great iucon-
vcniciico of the present system by which the
Interstate commerce commissioners are com

evidence which could bo taken" just ns well
before state authorities , while thu opponents
of thu bill are adverse to n mlugllng of state
officers In u federal tribunal. Tno Dill was
discussed for over an hour. No final vote
was reached , but the prospects are favorable.
The bill providing that there shall be no
higher charge for carrying oil In barrels than
for transporting in tanks was nlso carefully
discussed. The practical elTcet of the bill
would of course ue to nmko the railroads
carry the oil barrels free of charge. No vote

Both of the Nebraska senators look with
favor upon Mr ; Elaine's proposition to oi > en
commercial relations with our South and
Central American neighbors and to begin
the trade with sugar , not removing the duty
without n corresponding equivalent.
Senator Paddock said today : "I nm with
Mr. Blaiue on the main proposition. I nm in
favor of any plan which will extend our for
eign markets without assailing our homo in
dustries. I believe that Mr. Blnino's propo
sition to use the rcqioval of the duty on tlko
sugar for the purpose of securing concessions
In South America , which will give Nebraska
farmers a larger marKct for their crops , is
wise and far seeing. In response to the cry
for a free breakfast tdblo we arbitrarily re
moved the duty from coffee when wo might
huvo securbd the satno result together with
largo concessions in the way of the re
moval of duties from American products in
Brazil. As consequence Brazil put
a corresponding export duty on our coffee
and the cost to our people was not dimin
ished. While I believe in the policy of pro
tection to homo industries and believe that
through the stimulation of manufacturers our
farmers receive a larger homo market for our
products and nt the sumo ttmo nro preserved
from the ruinous competition on the farms
which the throwing into agriculture of thous
ands or operatives now engaged in manu
facture would cntttll'tho proposition to re
ciprocate with countries like the South
American countries , having no manufactures ,
seems to me ono which will commend itself
to the people of the west. A scheme of con
tinental reciprocity on this basis would , I be
lieve , bo a good one. In the future I look to
see a largo portion of bur western products
seek the gulf by rail and by river and if wo
can find a market from7 the gulf southward
by water it will bo a much better ono for our
western farmers than the ono by rail aud
ocean by way of New York to Liverpool. "
Senator Maiidcrson says : "I have liot
given the matter any special thought , but I
tun favorable to it. I am a protectionist , but
not a prohibitionist. Our western people
believe in protective , but not in prohibitory
duties. Wo believe In revising the tariff
where wo can safely do so , for , after all , "
continued the speaker , laughingly , "tho tar
iff is a local Issue. Mr. Bhilno's proposition
is ono that will no doubt ( commend itself to
the people of the west. Our farmers want u
market for their produce , our great rivers
flow to the south and it is in that direction
that wo look for an outlet. Wo ought to do
what wo can to develop friendly and com
mercial relations with 'our southern neigh
bors , and Mr. Blalno's suggestion , if acted
upon , will doubtless benefit us greatly. "

Lumber Company , tlio Victim ol * a
i'ul Plot The Murderers
Arrested.
OTTAWA , HI. , O'uno 24. [ Special Telegram
to Tun linn. ] Ono of thomostdtabollcal mur
ders ever committed In Ln Sallo county was
perpetrated In Ottawa at n late hour last
night. The discovery was made at 0 o'clock
this morning , when Mattlo Brown , the ten-
year-old son of the tenant nt Allen park , was
ecnt out to look for the cow. Some twenty
yards from the house , in the midst of Allen
park , the boy came upon the lifeless , gory
body of a well-dressed man.
The lad shrieked for assistance and' the no-
lice were soon on the scene. The body was
that of n stranger , but was soon recognized
by people from the Clifton hotel as that of
David Moore , a traveling man from Omaha ,
Neb. , employed by the J. B. Scott lumber
company of Merrill , WIs.
A terrible gash , nearly two inches long , on
the right temple , a broken jaw and five fear
ful gushes upon the back of the head told the
tale of murder most foul. Beside the dead
man lay a coupling pin of th' ) kind used by
the Burlington railroad company. It was
covered with blood and matted hair.
The pei-son of the murdered man showed
that ho had been struck from behind , as ho
had evidently fallen backward and had no
Warning of his doom. Near him were found
a woman's pin-so containing $2.05 , and near
this a woman's hat pin. The murdered man
was minus watch , stud , collar button and
cuff buttons. lie had carried a fine gold
watch and his stud and collar button were
first water diamonds. Nearly $150 pinned to
the inside pocket of tlio blood soaked vest
hud been overlooked by the murderers.
Shortly after the discovery of the murder
a woman was seen nt the corner of Main and
Laramie streets by Charles Bowermastcr , u
painter. She was busily engaged in tearing
up u paper. When she had walked away
Bowermastcr , who hud heard of the
murder , picked up the scraps of paper and
putting them together found that the paper
find originally been the route map of the
murdci-cd man.
He notified States Attorney Blake of his
find and the woman was promptly arrested.
Under severe pressure she confessed thatsho
was with Moore but refused to say who her
accomplices wero.
Moore bad been about the city all day yes
terday. Ho is known to have visited a well
known resort on the west side yesterday a f-
ternoon. Ho was seen at about 10 o'clock
lastiilght making his way over the Illinois
river bridge toward Allen park.
When the above facts had been communi
cated to the woman , and when
shov'ns also informed that she was
known to have taken dinner with
Moore on Monday , she broke down utterly
and made u confession.
She said that her name was Knto Weimar
and that she was married to Charles Ford of
Spring Valley about two weeks ago. She
mot Moore yesterday afternoon and ho agreed
to meet her at Allen park at 10 o'clock. She
noted his diamonds and told her husband ,
who had been boarding with her at the St.
Nicholas hotel , that she believed the man had
money and.that they coutd work him.
Her husband and a man named Barry , liv
ing on the north side , followed when she
went to keep the appointment. They went
around the south side of Allen park and got a
coupling pin from the railroad track. She led
Moore to a secluded spot near n house in the
park and a Half hour later succeeded In get
ting him into a quarrel with her.
This was the signal for the murderers.
Moore and the woman , arguing in a low tone ,
had stopped some five puces apart ,
when ono of the woman's aides
Just which she refuses to say stopped
from behind a tree and dealt Moore
u terrible blow on the back of the head.
Ho staggered , and to complete the work
the assassin dealt him a dozen additional
blows , any one of which would have felled
an ox. When the man was perfectly still
they turned his pockets inside out and robbed
him of his stud , collar button and watch.
Both men wore immediately placed under
arrest and lodged in the county Jail. An
abandoned female named Minnie Winter-
ling was arrested and placed in jail. She is
suspected ot having taken part in the affair
as the companion of Barry. The Ford
woman Implicates her In the plot. The mur
der was ono of the most foul ever committed
In the county of La Sallo. The police are
looking for H. T. Baum , a traveling man
who was seen with Moore before the murder
was committed. Ho loft on an early train ,
but the stiles attorney does not attach much
importance to his arrest other than for use
as n witness.
At tlio Murdered MUII'H Homo.
Fred W. Gray of this city received
a telegram about 11 o'clock' yester
day requesting him to Inform the dead
man's family of the crlmo. Mr. Moore
had resided inOmaha about twelve months ,
but previous to locating hero ho had made
frequent visits to tlio city for several years.
Ho was , as a consequence , well known among
business men. Ho made the Millard hotel
his headquarters and there the announcement
that ho had been killed occasioned n shock to
those who know him. Ills family , wlfo and
ono son , reside at the corner of Thirty-second
and Cuinlng streets.
Mrs. Moore , the wlfo of the murdered man ,
was scon at the family residence , 8111 North
Thirty-third street , last night. She said : "I
can't imagine why any ono should have mur
dered my husband. Ho was the best man In
the world and I cannot understand how it
happened. "
David Moore was born in Now York fifty
ycnra ago and after growing to manhood ho
embarked in the lumber trade. Twelve vears
ago ho sold out and engaged with the L. B.
Scott lumber company of Merrill , WIs. , and
at the time of his death was in the employ of
the company as salesman and general agent.
Last Juno Mr. Moore moved his family to
this city , furnished his house In nn elegant
manner and to every appearance ho Imd a
happy home. The wlfo Is nearly crazed with
grief and one thing that makes her sorrow
greater is the fact that just at the time she
received the telegram announcing the death
of her husband she was reading ono of his letters -
tors , written in Ottawa , III. , in which ho
stated that ho had turned his face homeward
and that trains could not carry him too rap
idly on his journey to his loved ones ,
Charles Moore , the only son , a young man
of twenty veers , departed for Ottawa last
night to brlug back with him the remains of
his father.

The men insist on the dismissal of SuperliU

men did not wish to bo held responsible foff
interfering with the United States mail on

New Orleans mall train today. The general
superintendent , however , refused to start thflf
train until passenger coaenes were attached
and the .strikers warned htm that ho dotulncoj
the mall and express at the company's risk.
General Manager Heck and General Su

the strikers this afternoon. The men stated
their determination not to return to worl <

The only conclusion arrived at was that tha

They now await overtures , and It is said that
unless the men return to work tomorrow the
company will proceed to hire new hands. .
The tie up will cause serious trouble , not
only locally , but throughout u largo

All thcso people , many of whom llvo beyond

their own resources for transportation.
13ut it is not this that will trouble the com
mercial world. To stop freight traflle on the
Illinois Central means to prevent thousands
of people in northern Iowa , southern Illinois ,
Kentucky , Tennessee , Mississippi and Loulsl-

TWENTIETH YEAR. OMAHA, WEDNESDAY MORNING. JUNE 25, 1890. NUMBER 7.
LICKED UP BY THE FLAMES,
An Incendiary Wreaks His Vengeance on Blue Hill, Nebraska.
NEARLY TWENTY STORES BLOTTED OUT,
The Amount of Damage Done Is Estimated at Over Fifty Thousand Dollars, With Comparatively Little Insurance.
BLUE HILL, Neb., June 24. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] At 2:30 this morning a fire broke out simultaneously in two places on the north side of Main street in Blue Hill. The one at the opera house, at almost the extreme east end of the street, was extinguished by the efforts of O. C. J. Longman, Mrs. B. H. Munson and the girl help at the Munson House. It was beyond question of Incendiary origin, the whole side of the building being saturated with coal oil.
The fire which caused the destruction of the city originated in the rear of the I. X. L. paint store, and in spite of every effort spread until it had wiped out between of the leading business houses of the place and destroyed the merchandise and office furniture of twenty firms, to say nothing of the city jail, which was also destroyed. The sufferers are as follows:
I. F. Grimes, two buildings and a drug store and stock of paints and window paper. Value of buildings, $5,000; Insurance, $1,500. Value of stock, $7,000; Insurance, $800. Insured in German, Springfield, Home of New York and Northern.
Little was saved of the Alliance store of S. Maudlebaum. Value of building $900; loss, total. Value of stock, $7,000; Insurance, $1,000 in the German, $1,000 in the British American. Goods saved, $600.
A. Koptsch's two buildings, Alliance hardware store and vacant building adjoining. Value, $1,200, Insured for $900 in German-American. Value of stock, $3,500, insured for $1,000 in the Hartford.
Nothing was saved of Higgins & Price's stock of general merchandise. Value, $5,000, Insured for $1,500 in the Niagara and $1,000 in the Hartford. Part of the stock saved.
Building belonging to Tobin & Klesson. Loss $1,000, insured for $900 in the Orient and the Home of New York.
Hicks Bros' drugstore. Loss $1,500, insured for $1,000. One-fourth of the stock was saved.
Building belonging to K. O. Pisch & Kletson. Loss $7,000, insured in the German for $600.

Fremont, Grand Island, Kearney.
FREMONT, Neb., June 21. [Special to THE BEE.] The exact figures on the population of the three leading cities in this census district, namely, Fremont, Grand Island and Kearney, cannot yet be given, but THE BEE's correspondent learned today approximately what they will be. Fremont's figures will not vary one hundred from 5,500. Information received in different ways from Grand Island and Kearney is to the effect that those two cities will show about the same population as Fremont, and it will probably require the official returns from the census bureau to determine which of the three is the largest.
It is understood from a man who has just left Kearney that the enumerators there have been notified by local parties interested in a big showing that they will be expected to find at least 8,000 people in that town.
The citizens of Fremont are generally disappointed at the result. They had good reason to believe that there would be a better showing. But just now is not a propitious time for counting the people in this city there has been in the past year. Hundreds of men have left the city temporarily on summer sheep drives and railroad work in the Black Hills and Wyoming, where local contractors have contracts. These absences, together with the numbers unavoidably missed by the enumerators, make an important difference in Fremont's showing.
Two Crooks Caught.
FREMONT, Neb., June 31. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] Sheriff Mallory returned last night from Covington with two crooks whom he captured there and brought back here for the purpose of meeting the charge of burglarizing the residence of Jay Reynolds, Friday afternoon, and stealing some valuable jewelry in the shape of a gold watch and diamond finger and ear rings.
They were traced to that place through the purchase at Missouri Valley of a railroad ticket with a gold dollar which was part of the booty they secured at the Reynolds' residence. They still had in their possession some of the valuables when captured. It appears to be a plain case of penitentiary.
He Climbed for His Life.
BRATTON, Neb., June 31. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] Charles Cunningham was seriously injured by the caving in of a well in this city today. He had been sent down to clean it out and when near the bottom he discovered caving in and climbed up the rope hand over hand.
He was about exhausted when he reached the top and a neighbor happened at this juncture to see him and pulled him out. A moment later the wall went in with a crash.
He was badly bruised about the head and body by the falling debris and stone as he was making his perilous ascent, and will be laid up several days in consequence.
A Peculiar Accident.
CRETE, Neb., June 21. [Special to THE BEE.] "Jud" Hawk, a young son of John Hawk, met with a somewhat serious accident last evening. The velocipede, upon which he was riding, parted in the center, the boy receiving a severe cut in the back from the backbone of the machine. Doctors were called in, and the patient follows as we could be expected.
A Surprising Decision.
OMAHA CITY, Neb., June 21. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The city council last evening, by a vote of four to three, rejected the proposition of the Burlington road to convert their bridge at this point into a combination railroad and wagon bridge. As the railroad's offer was considered a clear gift, the council's action created some surprise.
The Deadly Combination.
Nebraska, June 21, Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] Jerry Higgins, aged seven, of this place, stole his father's .38-caliber revolver, and with his brother, aged four years, started for the pasture half a mile away to shoot a jaybird. Instead, the boy shot himself in the left breast. The ball passed between the eighth and ninth ribs, coming out of his back. Afterward, he walked back to the house, lingered in terrible agony, and died this morning at 5 o'clock.
First Day of the Tournament,
PLATTSMOUTH, Neb., June 21. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The tournament opened today and the weather was perfect. Trains brought in large numbers of firemen, who were met at the depot with a band and escorted up Main street, which was gaily decorated, there being two arches of welcome, one at Second street and another at Sixth street. They were erected by Hon. William Neill, after whom our running team was named.
All business houses and many residences were appropriately decorated. The state hose cart, which has been won by the Kearney team twice, arrived this morning. It bears the inscriptions of all the teams who have won it in the last eight years.
At the races this afternoon there was a very poor attendance owing to the counter attraction. The races were very good. The first was the Green hose and ladder with two teams entered, the Otocs of Nebraska City and the Plattsmouth teams which was won by the former. Time, 8 seconds. The chiefs' race came next, with eleven entries. A. Bothman of York won the first prize. Time, 11 seconds. George Melvin of Wahoo brought up in the rear, getting the second prize. The class race, with five entries, ended the programme. G. F. Corcoran of York winning the first prize. Time, 10 seconds. Nevilles of Plattsmouth second. Time, 41½.

No Hope for Entombed Miners.
Duncans, Pa., June 24-The reports that the rescuers had broken into the Hill Farm mine this morning was false. The report arose from the fact that the rescuing party broke through the heavy "glop" into a small opening. The workmen under whose direction the coal in this mine was mined says the working party will probably get into the mine during the early morning hours. All hope of finding the men alive has been abandoned.

This action was expected, but not so soon.
Chairman Conger told your correspondent yesterday that a meeting of the committee would not be held before the latter part of this week and a report could not be expected before next week. Late last night, he was told by the committee of rules that it would be best, since there was a majority of the house from the Republican side in the city and many wanted to leave, to get his committee together this morning in a special meeting and report the measure back for immediate consideration. This was done and the bill was taken up before 2 o'clock. After the adoption of a resolution providing that the previous question shall be called and a final vote taken at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, the democrats knew they were in the minority, and, as they are not together on the subject of free coinage any more than the Republicans, they made no effort to defeat the resolution. As stated in these dispatches last night, there is no doubt that a $1,500,000 or $4,500,000 ounce, with a full legal tender clause, can be easily passed in the senate now.
Senator Teller, the leading free coinage advocate in the upper branch of congress, said this afternoon that no resistance would be offered to a 4,500,000 ounce or $4,500,000 bill if it had a full legal tender clause.
This is, however, an era of congressional surprises and one cannot always foretell the changes a night or day may make.
SUFFRAGE FOR THE ORIGINAL PACKING BILL.
Those who have been preparing speeches to be delivered in the house when the bills resulting from the original package decision should come up for action will now have to revise them. The judiciary committee of the house, which has been considering the Wilson bill for the past ten days, has agreed upon a substitute, which will upset much of the elaborate preparation which has been going on. In the modified form, it is made applicable not merely to liquor, as in the senate bill, but to every article forming the subject of interstate commerce. This is a decided advantage, as it relieves the measure of any objection on the ground of being invidious class legislation, and it is equally applicable to liquor or lumber, oleomargarine or oil, providing merely that when it has reached its termination of transportation and is held or exposed for sale in any state it shall be subject to the local laws. By a provision more lengthy than the rest of the act, the constitutional principle is affirmed that there shall be no discrimination in favor of the citizens or product of like character of the state where any given article is held or offered for sale and the safeguarding of the right of police regulation for the sake of the public health.
The bill is skillfully and artfully drawn. It recognizes the state's right doctrine in matters of public health, a proposition that no one would question. It leaves the opponents of the measure but little ground to stand on, and that upon the theory that state legislatures, from one cause or another, might be induced to pass a measure under the guise of being for the public health when such was not the case. The difficulties of this position are two-fold: First, it assumes that members of state legislatures will be actuated by improper motives or will be false to their oaths, an assumption not tenable in law and which no member who wants to stand solid with his constituents can afford to put forward; and, second, the proviso in the act in regard to products of like character. Under this limitation, the courts would undoubtedly hold as invalid the discriminations recently sought to be placed on the statutes of several states against Chicago dressed beef until it could be affirmatively shown that given shipments whose sale was sought to be objected to were in such condition as to be injurious to health.
The vote in the committee showed that in this new form the bill is likely to encounter but little opposition, Mr. Adams alone having voted in opposition to the proposed substitute.
FOR IMPROVING THE MISSOURI.
The river and harbor bill, as reported from the senate committee on commerce, has this amendment: "Improving the Missouri river from its mouth to Sioux City inclusive, embracing office, clerical, traveling and other expenses of the Missouri river commission, surveys, marks and gauges, $900,000, to be expended by the secretary of war, in the systematic improvement of the river from its mouth up to Sioux City inclusive, according to the plans and specifications of the Missouri river commission; provided, that in the discretion of the commission such portion of said sum as they may deem proper shall be expended in the protection of harbors and localities on any part of the river within said limits; improving Missouri river between Great Falls and Sioux City, $350,000, to be expended in the discretion of the secretary of war, and he is authorized to use so much thereof as may be necessary for the providing of two ice harbors, to be located by him."
ALLOTMENTS FOR STATE MILITIA.
The president has approved the following allotments for the distribution of the $400,000 annually appropriated by congress for "arming and equipping the militia" for the coming fiscal year: Nebraska, $1,005; Iowa, $12,211; South Dakota, $7,851. It is not likely that the bill of Colonel Henderson of Iowa, giving an increase of the annual appropriation for the militia, will get a hearing at this session.
INTERSTATE COMMERCE QUESTIONS.
The commerce committee of the house devoted its entire session today to the consideration of interstate commerce questions in executive session. The bill by which it is made lawful to take evidence of railroad cases before Justices of the peace or other properly authorized state officers was very warmly discussed by the friends of the bill, as it would save the expense and great inconvenience of the present system by which the Interstate commerce commissioners are compelled to be present in person at every hearing, no matter how far distant from Washington, merely to take evidence which could be taken just as well before state authorities, while the opponents of the bill are adverse to mingling of state officers in a federal tribunal. The bill was discussed for over an hour. No final vote was reached, but the prospects are favorable.
The bill providing that there shall be no higher charge for carrying oil in barrels than for transporting in tanks was also carefully discussed. The practical effect of the bill would of course be to make the railroads carry the oil barrels free of charge. No vote was reached, but the outlook is for an adverse report. The committee will hold similar meetings until all its most important interstate commerce bills have been considered and reports received thereon.
A CIVIL SERVICE EXCHANGE.
The post office department has, through its special agents, just unearthed a nest of deception and fraud in the use of the mails to further the interests of the pure lard bill, which has attracted so much attention during the present session of congress. It has been discovered that the requests made of farmers for a petition to congress in favor of the Conger bill came from an establishment run under the title of Farm and Fireside by a man named Waddell, at Orange Camp, Tenn. The post office at Orange Camp was established for the purpose of conducting the campaign for the Conger lard bill with the assistance of a Boston work packing establishment, and it was ascertained by an investigation that the paper, Farm and Fireside, had few if any legitimate subscribers, but was published in the interest of this bill to invoke money in the way of postage by circulating a class of matter that should have paid at a rate many times higher than was paid. The post office department has not only stopped the circulation of the paper, but abolished the post office, which had but two patrons and was at a place where there was not even a railroad station.
MIXING SUGARCANE AND SYRUP: ENDED.
Both of the Nebraska senators look with favor upon Mr. Blaine's proposition to open commercial relations with our South and Central American neighbors and to begin the trade with sugar, not removing the duty without a corresponding equivalent. Senator Paddock said today: "I am with Mr. Blaine on the main proposition. I am in favor of any plan which will extend our foreign markets without assailing our home industries. I believe that Mr. Blaine's proposition to use the removal of the duty on sugar for the purpose of securing concessions in South America, which will give Nebraska farmers a larger market for their crops, is wise and far-sighted. In response to the cry for a free breakfast table, we arbitrarily removed the duty from coffee when we might have secured the same result together with large concessions in the way of the removal of duties from American products in Brazil. As a consequence, Brazil put a corresponding export duty on our coffee and the cost to our people was not diminished. While I believe in the policy of protection to home industries and believe that through the stimulation of manufacturers our farmers receive a larger home market for their products and at the same time are preserved from the ruinous competition on the farms which the throwing into agriculture of thousands of operatives now engaged in manufacture would entail, the proposition to reciprocate with countries like the South American countries, having no manufactures, seems to me one which will commend itself to the people of the west. A scheme of continental reciprocity on this basis would, I believe, be a good one. In the future I look to see a large portion of our western products seek the gulf by rail and by river and if we can find a market from the gulf southward by water it will be a much better one for our western farmers than the one by rail and ocean by way of New York to Liverpool."
Senator Manderson says: "I have not given the matter any special thought, but I am favorable to it. I am a protectionist, but not a prohibitionist. Our western people believe in protective, but not in prohibitory duties. We believe in revising the tariff where we can safely do so, for, after all, the tariff is a local issue. Mr. Blaine's proposition is one that will no doubt commend itself to the people of the west. Our farmers want a market for their produce, our great rivers flow to the south and it is in that direction that we look for an outlet. We ought to do what we can to develop friendly and commercial relations with our southern neighbors, and Mr. Blaine's suggestion, if acted upon, will doubtless benefit us greatly."

The tariff bill as reported from the committee, does not make any provision of this character, but it is to be offered in the senate as an amendment to the measure. The idea has ample precedent to support it and it is no small item to the beet sugar manufacturers and will be hailed with delight by Nebraska farmers.

This bill was recommended by the secretary of the interior and Land Commissioner Bron and there is no doubt that it will be adopted at this session of congress.
SUPREME COURT HEATED BY EX-PRESIDENT BASCOM.
MADISON, WISCONSIN, June 21. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The rustic that ex-President Bascom gave the supreme court last night in his lecture before the graduates of the law class, for its decision in the Edgerton bible case, is likely to create a good deal of excitement in this case.
Judge Cassiday, whom the ex-president particularly assailed, is one of the lecturers before the law school and very highly thought of by the "boys." They promise to hold an indignation meeting to protest against the language of the ex-president and to show their esteem for the judge.

A FIEND IN WOMAN'S SHAPE,
An Omaha Traveling Man Lured to His Death by a Female Outcast.
ROBBERY THE MOTIVE FOR THE CRIME.
J. N. Scott, Hopkins Lumber Company, the Victim of a Plot The Murderers Arrested.
OTTAWA, HI., June 24. [Special Telegram to The Times.] One of the most spectacular murders ever committed in La Sallo county was perpetrated in Ottawa at a late hour last night. The discovery was made at 5 o'clock this morning, when Mattie Brown, the ten-year-old son of the tenant at Allen park, was sent out to look for the cow. Some twenty yards from the house, in the midst of Allen park, the boy came upon the lifeless, gory body of a well-dressed man.
The lad shrieked for assistance and the police were soon on the scene. The body was that of a stranger, but was soon recognized by people from the Clifton hotel as that of David Moore, a traveling man from Omaha, Neb., employed by the J. B. Scott lumber company of Merrill, Wis.
A terrible gash, nearly two inches long, on the right temple, a broken jaw and five fearful gashes upon the back of the head told the tale of murder most foul. Beside the dead man lay a coupling pin of the kind used by the Burlington railroad company. It was covered with blood and matted hair.
The person of the murdered man showed that he had been struck from behind, as he had evidently fallen backward and had no warning of his doom. Near him were found a woman's pin-case containing $2.05, and near this a woman's hat pin. The murdered man was minus watch, stud, collar button and cuff buttons. He had carried a fine gold watch and his stud and collar button were first water diamonds. Nearly $150 pinned to the inside pocket of the blood-soaked vest had been overlooked by the murderers.
Shortly after the discovery of the murder a woman was seen at the corner of Main and Laramie streets by Charles Bowermaster, a painter. She was busily engaged in tearing up a paper. When she had walked away Bowermaster, who had heard of the murder, picked up the scraps of paper and putting them together found that the paper had originally been the route map of the murdered man.
He notified States Attorney Blake of his find and the woman was promptly arrested. Under severe pressure she confessed that she was with Moore but refused to say who her accomplices were.
Moore had been about the city all day yesterday. He is known to have visited a well-known resort on the west side yesterday afternoon. He was seen at about 10 o'clock last night making his way over the Illinois river bridge toward Allen park.
When the above facts had been communicated to the woman, and when she was shown also informed that she was known to have taken dinner with Moore on Monday, she broke down utterly and made a confession.
She said that her name was Kato Weimar and that she was married to Charles Ford of Spring Valley about two weeks ago. She met Moore yesterday afternoon and he agreed to meet her at Allen park at 10 o'clock. She noted his diamonds and told her husband, who had been boarding with her at the St. Nicholas hotel, that she believed the man had money and that they could work him.
Her husband and a man named Barry, living on the north side, followed when she went to keep the appointment. They went around the south side of Allen park and got a coupling pin from the railroad track. She led Moore to a secluded spot near a house in the park and a half hour later succeeded in getting him into a quarrel with her.
This was the signal for the murderers. Moore and the woman, arguing in a low tone, had stopped some five paces apart, when one of the woman's aides, which she refuses to say, stopped from behind a tree and dealt Moore a terrible blow on the back of the head.
He staggered, and to complete the work the assassin dealt him a dozen additional blows, any one of which would have felled an ox. When the man was perfectly still they turned his pockets inside out and robbed him of his stud, collar button and watch. Both men were immediately placed under arrest and lodged in the county jail. An abandoned female named Minnie Winters was arrested and placed in jail. She is suspected of having taken part in the affair as the companion of Barry. The Ford woman implicates her in the plot. The murder was one of the most foul ever committed in the county of La Sallo. The police are looking for H. T. Baum, a traveling man who was seen with Moore before the murder was committed. He left on an early train, but the states attorney does not attach much importance to his arrest other than for use as a witness.
At the Murdered Man's Home.
Fred W. Gray of this city received a telegram about 11 o'clock yesterday requesting him to inform the dead man's family of the crime. Mr. Moore had resided in Omaha about twelve months, but previous to locating here he had made frequent visits to the city for several years. He was, as a consequence, well known among business men. He made the Millard hotel his headquarters and there the announcement that he had been killed occasioned a shock to those who knew him. His family, wife and one son, reside at the corner of Thirty-second and Cuming streets.
Mrs. Moore, the wife of the murdered man, was seen at the family residence, 8111 North Thirty-third street, last night. She said: "I can't imagine why anyone should have murdered my husband. He was the best man in the world and I cannot understand how it happened."
David Moore was born in New York fifty years ago and after growing to manhood he embarked in the lumber trade. Twelve years ago he sold out and engaged with the L. B. Scott lumber company of Merrill, Wis., and at the time of his death was in the employ of the company as salesman and general agent. Last June Mr. Moore moved his family to this city, furnished his house in an elegant manner and to every appearance he had a happy home. The wife is nearly crazed with grief and one thing that makes her sorrow greater is the fact that just at the time she received the telegram announcing the death of her husband she was reading one of his letters, written in Ottawa, III., in which he stated that he had turned his face homeward and that trains could not carry him too rapidly on his journey to his loved ones.
Charles Moore, the only son, a young man of twenty years, departed for Ottawa last night to bring back with him the remains of his father.
A Cowboy's Ghastly Wound.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 21. [Special Telegram to The Times.] A cowboy named Augustus Van Burkan was brought to this city on the Cheyenne & Northern today and taken to the county hospital for treatment for concussion of the brain. Van Burkan and another cowboy who is known as "Scrapping Johnny," got into a dispute while riding about a herd of cattle today and came to blows. In the encounter Van Burkan was knocked from his horse and picked up in a senseless condition.
"Scrapping Johnny" started to Cheyenne on a stock train to give himself up, but changed his mind about forty miles north of here and jumped from the train. The sheriff is now in pursuit of him. Van Burkan is not yet dead, but the physician in attendance thinks his chances of recovery very slim.

The Br.n.J Ex-Governor; German of Iowa
was in the city today on his return from a
trip to Georgia. Speak, Cl Mho coming congressional elections, he > - "Our delegation in the next house of "technologies will
be greatly changed. The * - final package
decision and the question of silver coinage
are the main issues upon which the people
will select their next representatives. I
think the Republicans in Iowa hold their
own in the fall elections, but will have
to fight. The only members whose nominations I regard as certain are congressman
Gear in the First district, Judge Ivis in the
Second and Congressman Flick in the
Eighth. Congressman Kerr of the Fifth, Congressman Iger of the Seventh and Reed of the Ninth will not
be candidates for re-election. Colonel Henderson of the Third may be renominated, but
he will have a warm fight in the general
election. The Democrats will nominate Judge
Couch in the Fourth district. Colonel
Sweeny, the present member, is having his
claims for re-election disputed by ex-Governor Larrabee, and the natural result of
such a contest would be a heated fray. The
warmest contest in the state will be in the
Seventh district over the successor of Major
Conger. The candidates are Senator Caulwell of Dallas county, ex-Congressman Cummings of Madison and Mr. Hull of Polk.
Colonel John Scott of Story county may enter
the contest and would make a good race.
Congressman Shubel of the Tenth district
has several opponents for the nomination and
the fight promises to be very animated. The
Democrats are watching the Republican fight
with great interest and will eagerly take advantage of any opportunity to advance their
own party interests. "

A Murderer's Efforts to Keep Her in
Ignorance of His Crime.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 21. [Special Telegram to The Br.n.J.] B.M. Chambers, who
was acquitted of the murder of Frank J.
Bowman of Chicago, has just returned to his
home at Ferguson, Mo., where he was welcomed back by his mother, now nearly ninety-two years old.
Nine months ago Bowman attempted to enter Chambers' house to make a levy on the
old lady's property. Chambers met him at
the door, ordered him to leave the place, and
mistaking a movement made by Bowman's
hand, fired with his shotgun, killing the latter instantly.
Mrs. Chambers was told that it was a hunter's shot, and though the body lay on the
lawn for two hours, she was not aware that
a homicide had been committed. When her
son was taken to Clayton, he wrote letters, re-
mailed from New York, where it was pretended
that he was on business.
He was tried for his life, was acquitted,
has returned to his home, and his old mother
is still in utter ignorance of the terrible
tragedy of her son's life.
For the Inspection of Cattle.

A post
mortem examination of carcasses intended to
be further prepared for consumption at a cannning establishment or elsewhere may also be
ordered by the secretary of agriculture. In
case of the discovery of any diseased animal
or carcass it shall be destroyed, also any
product of such carcass found to be unfit for
human consumption.

ILLINOIS CENTRAL STRIKE,
Business Completely Paralyzed by the
Going Out of Trainmen,
AN OBNOXIOUS OFFICIAL THE CAUSE
They Demand the Disbursing of Superintendent Ushioi, Whom They
Claim He Consistently Presented Them.
CHICAGO, June 24. The strike of freight conductors, switchmen and brakemen on the Illinois Central has reached a critical point, threatening to block the entire business of the railroad. The suburban trainmen struck this morning, after the early trains had come in, and there are now about thirteen hundred men idle, paralyzing the business of the railroad. An order was issued by the strikers at a meeting held today, extending the strike over the whole of the Illinois Central in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Iowa.
The men insist on the dismissal of Superintendent Russell, whose jurisdiction extends over the lines in Illinois, Iowa, and Wisconsin. They claim that he persecuted many of the men and have numerous grievances against him. The troubles culminated yesterday afternoon, when trainsmasters were discharged by him, as mentioned in these dispatches last night. The men did not wish to be held responsible for interfering with the United States mail or express matter and consequently attached mail and express cars to the engine of the New Orleans mail train today. The general superintendent, however, refused to start the train until passenger coaches were attached and the strikers warned him that he would carry the mail and express at the company's risk.
General Manager Heck and General Superintendent Sullivan had a conference with the strikers this afternoon. The men stated their determination not to return to work until Superintendent Russell was dismissed. The only conclusion arrived at was that the company would resist the men's demand. They now await overtures, and it is said that unless the men return to work tomorrow, the company will proceed to hire new hands.
The tie-up will cause serious trouble, not only locally but throughout a large section of country, both west and south. The suburban traffic of the road is enormous, the largest in the United States. Trains run in and out of the city every few minutes from 5 o'clock in the morning until midnight and are crowded. All these people, many of whom live beyond the cable car limits, are now thrown upon their own resources for transportation.
But it is not this that will trouble the commercial world. To stop freight traffic on the Illinois Central means to prevent thousands of people in northern Iowa, southern Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Louisville from getting products to market. The yards in this city are already filled with freight cars, and the stalling of trains now in transit will jam every transfer track touched by the road.
CAIRO, Ill., June 21. The strike on the Illinois Central has not extended this far south, but only passenger trains left today, and perishable fruit trains have been sent north by the Chicago, St. Louis & Southern Railroad. It is expected that all the yardmen will go out here and at Mounds Junction tomorrow.
TIRE OMAHA FINEST CARGO.
Charles Fairfax and Ida Bruce Find a Watery Grave.
ELKHORN, Neb., June 24. [Special Telegram to The Bee.] Charles Fairfax and Ida Bruce of Omaha, who were attending the picnic of colored Masons at Waterloo today, were drowned by the overturning of a boat in the Elkhorn last night.
The recent rains had changed the usually tranquil Elkhorn into a raging torrent. It had overflowed its banks until in many places it was a quarter of a mile wide.
Opposite the Waterloo picnic grounds a rope had been placed across the river to aid in operating the ferry, and above this the excursionists had been boating, when suddenly the boat containing Charles Fairfax, Ida Bruce, and two other parties was swept down the stream, and, striking the rope, overturned.
A number of boats were sent out from the shore, but before they had reached the spot, Fairfax and Miss Bruce sank, never to rise again.
Fairfax was a porter on one of the B. & M. sleepers, and with his family resided at Twenty-first and Nicholas streets.
Miss Bruce was a graduate of the class of 1889 of the Omaha high school, and stood very high in the estimation of her classmates. She resided at 311 North Twenty-fifth street, with her parents, and was twenty years of age.
The river was dragged during the afternoon, but at 8 o'clock last night when the train left for Omaha, neither of the bodies had been recovered.
Particulars of the Loss of That Vessel Off Queen Charlotte Island.
VICTORIA, B.C., June 21. [Special Telegram to The Bee.] A letter has been received from Captain Smith of the steamer Sardonyx giving particulars of the loss of that vessel off Queen Charlotte Island June 11. Captain Smith says the steamer was proceeding southward at full speed with a smooth sea when she struck a rocky shoal not down on the chart. The vessel could not be gotten off and soon commenced to fill. Boats were launched and passengers and mail conveyed to Skagway.
The steamer hangs on a rock under the engine room and the captain states she will go to pieces at the first high wind. The vessel was valued at $7,100.
The rocks on which the Sardonyx struck were unknown to navigators and are believed to have been thrown up recently by volcanic action.

the Sloux-Clty-Omahn game today , ns there
vim yesterday. Both teams were full of
ginger nnd played with nn energy that would
have made n highly exciting game but for
DadClarke's weakness in thu box. The
champidns experienced embarrassment In
front of Burdlck , who pitched nn elfectlvo
game until the eighth Inning , when ho cased
up. Hut the Corn Huskers pounded Pad
Clarke almost from the start , nnd liut for the
unusual cniciency of the outlleld the score
would have been much moro dis
astrous to the visitors. In the sixth
Inning the veteran was knocked
out of the box" . Willis took his place and
thereafter the Com Hunkers achieved only
ono base hit. IJut their lead was too great to
bo overcome , especially as the champions
were fulling to hit the ball nt critical mo-
inratfl. In the sixth inning Cannvnn led oft
with a base hit. Walsh followed with nn-
other b.iso hit , advancing Catmvnn to third ,
and he scored on ICoarns' sacrifice. In the
eight Inning Walsh hit for a base , and
Kunnis advanced him to third by
n clean hit. WuLsh scored on Hluc-s'
bit , nnd Kcarns got to third.

g of tlio Slvtli International
Convention at PlttHbnrg.
PiTTsnujto , Pa. , Juno 34. The sixth inter
national Sunday school convention was called
to order this morning by William Reynolds
of Pcoria , 111. The session opened with de
votional exercises and was followed by rou
tine business. There are l TOO delegates pres
ent from all parts of North America , repre
senting llii.SOT Sunday .schools , with 1,17S)01 : )
tcachei 9 and ! ) ,14,1K7 ! ) ! scholars. Every evan
gelical protestant denomination in North
America is represented. The objects of the
convention are the promotion and increase of
Sunday .school work , the devising of now and
better methods of teaching children and uni
formity of lessons.
At the afternoon session President Rey
nolds spoke at length of the work In the Held
nnd New England , Instead of being the
Hold from which the great West draws Its
missionary supplies , is now a missionary Held
itself. The vast numberof foreigners coming
in has created a demand that never existed
before for missionaries right in the heart of
New England. In the t-outh both the white
and colored people are Interested and n grc.it
woik is being done. Mr. Reynolds
has just returned from a four
months' tour over the west and
nor.hwo.st , and said that so far us Sunday
schools uio concerned , no states in the union
aio better supplied than the far western
states. Although the organizations nro
weak , thny are improving anil tlio outlook in
the west is glorious. Summing up ho said :
'And all over this great country Sunday-
school work is in a moro prosperous condi
tion than ever. The people nro dropping
denominational prejudices and realizing
more niut moro that if this country is
ever to bo saved the Sunday School
must bo the moans. And not only Christians
but thinking men of all classes are looking to
this inscltution as the mainstay of our nation.
Reports by htntos were then taken up.
They uniformly showed iu nil parts of tno
country nnd Canada increased interest In
Sunday school affairs aud largo additions to
the membership.
Major Jarris of Alabama was then elected
president aud other officer. * chosen. Ad

WHV SO3II3 BOOKS FAIIj.
Chiefly IJounusc They Contain Noth
ing Worth Ilcmliii .
The reason why f-o many books full is
bocauio the poopio who wrote thorn have
nothing original to say , or what tlioy
any It. s'lid badly , buys a writer in Mur
ray's Magazine. Another reason is tluit
few of those who can write know any
thing1. They have no invention. They
do not see with their own eyes , but with
other people's oyos. They write books
about other people's books and have
little of their own to toll us. Clmmfort
gives another idea of authorship :
"What makes the success of numerous
works,1' ho says , "is the alllnity between
the mediocrity of the ideas of the author
and the mediocrity of the ideas of the
public. "
When an author has composed a work
ho ncccsbtxrily takes an interest in it.
Every writer of books , says Shelley ,
likes to breech his bantlings. Ho may
have spent many years upon it nnd prob
ably forms an excessive estimate of its
value. Ho is under the impression that
most readers of books will desire to pos
sess it. Lackington , the bookseller , tells
the story of a gentleman who , not being
able to llnd a , purehi'&or for his manu
script , resolved to publish it at his
own expense. The publisher desired
to know how many copies should b
printed. The gentleman began to
compute how many families there
were in Great Britain , and assured the
publisher that every family would at
least purchase ono copy. IIo was of his
opinion that at the lo'west ( iO.OOO copies
only might bo printed of the llrst edi
tion. The publisher prevailed upon him ,
much to his disgust , to print 1,250 in
stead of (50,000 , The result was that only
100 copies wore sold , not oven enough to
pay for the ndvortihomonts , and the
author departed railing at the stupidity
of publisher , bookseller and public.
Bookwrlting is quite as much a specu
lation on the one hand as bookselling is
on the other. Only a small number of
the books published pay their expenses ,
and very Jew of them reach a second edi
tion. "Every year , " says Do Quincy ,
'buries its own literature. " When an
author writes for money , ho goes to the
publisher and endeavors to sell him tlio
mnuuBcrlpt for as much as ho can get.
IIo may gQt too little , or ho
may got too much. The pub
lisher takes the risk , nnd incurs
the expense of printing , binding and ad
vertising. If the book hells and thu
author thtnkd ho has got too little , ho
proclaims that ho has boon outwitted
and defrauded. But if the book does
not sell , it never enters the author's
head to refund the copy money or re
turn the amount of loa to the pub
lisher. Both have run the risks of the
speculation , and both mllat bo content to
abide the Issue.
' The ilrltlsli Census.
The British Census will bo taken In
1801. The cost of the census of Great
Britain in 18S1 was 172,000 for a popu
lation of 20,000,000. For England and
Wales the cost jier 1,000 of the popula
tion was 4 15s Od In 1801 , rising to 5
5s 7d In 1871 | and 0 12s Od in 1881. The
number of enumerators was nearly U5- ,
000 , and in 1801 the number will not bo
far short of 40,000. ,

WASHINGTON , Juno 24. In the house today ,
after the journal had been read , Mr. Springer
of Illinois called attention to the fact that the
legislative appropriation bills , as amended by
the senate , had been referred to the appro
priations committee without i-efereuco to tlio
house.
TUo speaker said the usual custom had been
followed , that the Record had duly informed
the house of the reference and therefore ho
declared the journal approved.
Mr. Buttcrworth presented the report of
the appropriations committed upon the senate
amendment to the legislative bill.
The ronort of the committee was agreed to
and n conference ordered.
, A conference was ordered on the bill to in-
creoso the numberof managers of the national
homo for volunteer soldiers.
The senate amendment to the house bill to
extend the time for the payment of the pur
chase money for lands of the Omaha Indians
in Nebraska was agreed to.
Mr. McKinley , from the committee on rules ,
reported the following :
Kosolved , That Immediately after the pas
sage of this icsolutlnu the house proceed to
consider house bill 5 , : 1 ( sllvor 1)1111 wltb tlio
s emit n amundmunts and at L' o'clock Woilnes-
dny , JuiiuSA , tlio. previous question bliall bo
conslduiud as onlnrml.
IIo demanded the previous question on the
adoption of the resolution , which was ordered ,
and twenty minutes' debate was allowed on
either side. There was considerable opposi
tion shown by the democrats.
Mr. McKinley sniu the purpose of the reso
lution was to secure , definite and speedy ac
tion upon the subject of silver. It was results
the republican side was after , said Mr. Me-
Kinloy , and politics the democratic side was
after. The house had passed the period of
silver manipulation. It was face to face with
n practical question whether wo wore to
have free nnd unlimited coinage of the world's
silver product , or whether wo would legislate
to aljsoib every ounce of silver produced In
the United States and nmko it part of our
monetary system. On motion of Mr.McKin-
loy the bpccinl rate was adopted without divi
sion.
sion.Mr.
Mr. Conger , chairman of the coinage com
mittee , presented the ronort of the commit
tee. It simply recommended that the house
lion-concur in each and all of the senate
amendments to the silver bill and request a
conference.
Mr. Hlandof Missouri moved that the house
concur in the senate amendments.
With those motions pending the debate
began.
Mr. Conger defended the action of his com
mittee. saying It had reported n wise and con
servative , measure. If the bullion redemp
tion feature was stricken out then the gov
ernment was placed in the position of buying
gold nnd silver bullion and paying for It in
silver coin , for that was the only money pro
vided for the purpose now. Free coinage
meant a profit of $1:1,000,000 : a year to the
bullion owners of this country. It meant
that wo should say to the world ! "Bring us
your silver and wo will give you ! ! 0 per rent
more for It than you can got nnywhuro clso. "
Mr. Conger held that under the terms of the
house bill silver and gold would bo equally
Within the reach of nil , whilo.if the senate
bill was passed the country would bo driven
to a silver basis. IIo held that under the
terms of the house bill sllvor wonld appre
ciate ; under tlio terms of the sonata bill , ho
believed , it would not. Ho wished his col
leagues could understand the pressure that
had been brought to boar by men interested
In silver speculation to secure silver legisla
tion. Not only have paid lobbyists bcou plyIng -
Ing their vocation here , but various other
means have been rosorUsd to by silver specu
lators to procure legislation , Pool after pool
had been organised in this city to speculate
iu silver. Money bad been deposited in banks
In this country by hundreds and Hundreds of
thousands ready to purchase bullion as soon
as this legislation should pass. Those people
were opposed to the house bill.Vhyl Simply
because If that bill passed they would buvn to
trust to tlio market value of their product.
If the free coinage bill pusscd the
congress of the United States it would
11 x the value of It CO . per emit
above what silver was worth. IIo had been
Invited time nnd again to join silver pools ,
but as long as he had a spat hero UIs voice
should bo raised In behalf of the people of
this country , for the laboring man , for the
savings bank depositor , for the crippled and
starved soldiers of the country , In conclu
sion , Mr. Conger said that if there was no sil
ver legislation the responsibility would rest
upon the advocates of free coinage because
the delay 1111 to this time rested largely upon
their shoulders.
Mr. Bland knew n * thuifr about any lobby.
IIu hud not seen it and had never heard of it.
If speculative pools had been organized tlioy
might have bcou founded upon a belief In
the passage of the house bill , because It

Mr. Uownsjjiyj Of Colorado said free coinage
was the only . .way to secure a stable financial
system , but If/ho could not got free coinage

The quos'tMt was further debated by
Messrs. KorA d > est , Hill , Kelly , Strublo ,

ho felt it his duty to vote for any measure
that pointed iu the direction of free silver.

CHICAGO , Juno 21. [ Special Telegram to
Tim UKK.I The first legal contest to any
proposed action of the interstate commerce
commission took definite shape this nfteriioou
in Chicago. This result wivs obtained at a
well attended meeting of western lines , each
being represented both by high ofUclals and
their best attorneys.
The quaslio'n'under consideration was the
proposerf'reductlqns by the Interstate com-
jiiurcp commission In food product rates from
western states to Chicago. The whole sub
ject was thoroughly canvassed In nn all day's '
session , and late in the afternoon it was de
cided U ) sciro the bull by the horns aiul con
test the right of the commission to make the
proposed reductions.
Chairman Walker was appointed leading
counsel for the roads , with such assistants as
each road may select. Tlio commission np-
pointed July 8 as the date of the hearing ,
supposing that arguments alone would be
presented. The body of attorneys which will
then appear to do battle for tire railroads , is
authorized to challenge the commission from
the start nnd adopt any kind of legal proced
ure deemed necessary.
Any agreement against reductions In rates
will take a secondary position at the hearing ,
as the attorneysuro authorized to light tlio
matter out on the broad ground of denying
the right of the commission to make any re
ductions , which the roads can show will
force a losing rate on them. Tlioy will base
their action oil the decision of the United
States supreme court In the celebrated Min
nesota "granger" cases , which laid down the
above proposition.
Chairman Mldgcloy Talk * .
CniOAOo , Juno 21. [ Special Telegram to
Tun Bin.j : Chairman Midgelcy returned
this morning from the Buffalo meeting on
uniform classification. Said ho : "When
our plan of uniform classification is adopted
by all roads iu the United States , as 1 cer
tainly believe it will be , it will bo the greatest
advance In transportation interests over ac
complished in this country. Our committee
is composed of members from lines all over
the United States nnd each one approved the
finding as It will bo amended. There is still
much to bo done in the way of revising and
printing , but I think it will be ready for dis
tribution to all the lines by August 1. "
Chairman Midgcloy Is enthusiastically
praised for the success which scorn's
certain to secure his etTonts to
bring about uniform classification. From
Universal condemnation , even such an
authority as Chairman Fink opposing it us
Iwing chimerical , the sentiment has changed
to one of almost complete commendation.
Chairman tioddurd has sent out a circular
letter asking each general passenger agent In
the Western Passenger association to inform
him before Juno 27 , of any contract or agree
ment which may affect rates in the future.
This course , and the complaint with it Dy
every line , is absolutely necessary to pre
serve peace in the west.
There is nothing now to prevent any pas-
scngerraan contracting for n party nnd dat
ing the contract back to sucli time as ho sees
Jit. This has been done in several cases and
three general passenger agents declared to
day that the rate situation cannot bo entirely
settled until every line declares it has no
outstanding contracts.

the platform , the main point
being the temperance declaration. There

make a ringing and radical prohibition plank.

No oilier Baking Powder is "just as good as the 'Royal' " either in strength ,
purity or wholesomeness. The "Royal" is superior to all others in all ways.
Most housekeepers know this from their practical experience , and the reports
of the U. S. Government investigations show it officially. The Government
chemist says the "Royal" is "undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking
powder offered to the public. "
If some grocers try to sell another baking powder in place of the " Royal"
they do so because they can make a greater profit upon the other ; good evi
dence of the superiority of the "Royal. " To give greater profit the other must
be a lower-cost powder , and to cost less it must be made with alum or cheaper
and inferior materials.
Because the "Royal" uses more highly refined and expensive materials it
costs more to manufacture than any other baking powder , but it is correspond
ingly purer and higher in leavening strength , and accordingly of greater money
value to consumers , although the retail' price to them is generally the same.
Consumers are entitled to full value for their money , and therefore will not , ifv
wise , accept any substitute for the " Royal. "
Unfortunately , not only are many of these would-be substitute powders made
from inferior and unwholesome materials , but they are placed before the public
with advertisements intended to mislead as to their true character. A powder
advertised by its manufacturers to have printed upon its label all the ingredients
used in it , proves upon analysis to have in its composition four substances no
named upon its label , two of which are lime and sulphuric acid. Most of the s.
alum powders are fraudulently sold as pure cream of tartar goods.
The danger incurred , should such powders be substituted for the "Royal , "
will be apparent to every consumer. | 25, June 25, 1890.

St. Louis City H, Omaha!
Sioux CITY, IA, June 5. [Special Telegram to THE BIE.] There was no listlessness in the Sioux-City-Omaha game today, as there was yesterday. Both teams were full of ginger and played with an energy that would have made a highly exciting game but for Dad Clarke's weakness in the box. The champions experienced embarrassment in front of Burdick, who pitched an effective game until the eighth inning, when he ceased up. But the Corn Huskers pounded Dad Clarke almost from the start, and but for the unusual efficiency of the outfield the score would have been much more disastrous to the visitors. In the sixth inning the veteran was knocked "out of the box." Willis took his place and thereafter the Corn Huskers achieved only one base hit. But their lead was too great to be overcome, especially as the champions were falling to hit the ball at critical moments. In the sixth inning Canavan led off with a base hit. Walsh followed with another base hit, advancing Canavan to third, and he scored on Kearns' sacrifice. In the eighth inning Walsh hit for a base, and Kearns advanced him to third by a clean hit. Walsh scored on Blakes' hit, and Kearns got to third.
After Collins' sacrifice Kearns scored on a passed ball, and Hines advanced to third. Urquhart lined out a base hit, scoring Blakes, but Cleveland's out recorded the inning.
The features of the game were Canavan's work in middle field and Walsh at short. Out of four times at bat Urquhart made three out of four hits.

Sixth International Sunday School Convention at Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pa., June 24. The sixth international Sunday school convention was called to order this morning by William Reynolds of Peoria, Ill. The session opened with devotional exercises and was followed by routine business. There are 1,200 delegates present from all parts of North America, representing 1,500 Sunday schools, with 1,187,014 scholars. Every evangelical Protestant denomination in North America is represented. The objects of the convention are the promotion and increase of Sunday school work, the devising of new and better methods of teaching children, and uniformity of lessons.
At the afternoon session, President Reynolds spoke at length of the work in the field and New England. Instead of being the field from which the great West draws its missionary supplies, is now a missionary field itself. The vast number of foreigners coming in has created a demand that never existed before for missionaries right in the heart of New England. In the south, both the white and colored people are interested and a great work is being done. Mr. Reynolds has just returned from a four-months' tour over the West and northwest, and said that so far as Sunday schools are concerned, no states in the union are better supplied than the far western states. Although the organizations are weak, they are improving and the outlook in the West is glorious. Summing up, he said: "And all over this great country Sunday school work is in a more prosperous condition than ever. The people are dropping denominational prejudices and realizing more and more that if this country is ever to be saved the Sunday School must be the means. And not only Christians but thinking men of all classes are looking to this institution as the mainstay of our nation. Reports by states were then taken up. They uniformly showed in all parts of the country and Canada increased interest in Sunday school affairs and large additions to the membership.
Major Jarvis of Alabama was then elected president and other officers chosen. Adjourned till tomorrow.
WHY SO MANY BOOKS FAIL.
Chiefly because they contain nothing worth reading.
The reason why so many books fail is because the people who write them have nothing original to say, or what they do say it is said badly, as a writer in Murray's Magazine states. Another reason is that few of those who can write know anything. They have no invention. They do not see with their own eyes, but with other people's eyes. They write books about other people's books and have little of their own to tell us. Comfort gives another idea of authorship: "What makes the success of numerous works," he says, "is the affinity between the mediocrity of the ideas of the author and the mediocrity of the ideas of the public."
When an author has composed a work he necessarily takes an interest in it. Every writer of books, says Shelley, likes to breed his bantlings. He may have spent many years upon it and probably forms an excessive estimate of its value. He is under the impression that most readers of books will desire to possess it. Lackington, the bookseller, tells the story of a gentleman who, not being able to find a purchaser for his manuscript, resolved to publish it at his own expense. The publisher desired to know how many copies should be printed. The gentleman began to compute how many families there were in Great Britain, and assured the publisher that every family would at least purchase one copy. He was of his opinion that at the very lowest 50,000 copies only might be printed of the first edition. The publisher prevailed upon him, much to his disgust, to print 1,250 instead of 50,000. The result was that only 100 copies were sold, not even enough to pay for the advertisements, and the author departed railing at the stupidity of publisher, bookseller, and public.
Bookwriting is quite as much a speculation on the one hand as bookselling is on the other. Only a small number of the books published pay their expenses, and very few of them reach a second edition. "Every year," says De Quincy, "buries its own literature." When an author writes for money, he goes to the publisher and endeavors to sell him the manuscript for as much as he can get. He may get too little, or he may get too much. The publisher takes the risk, and incurs the expense of printing, binding, and advertising. If the book sells and the author thinks he has got too little, he proclaims that he has been outwitted and defrauded. But if the book does not sell, it never enters the author's head to refund the copy money or return the amount of loss to the publisher. Both have run the risks of the speculation, and both must be content to abide the issue.
The British Census.
The British Census will be taken in 1801. The cost of the census of Great Britain in 1881 was $172,000 for a population of 20,000,000. For England and Wales, the cost per 1,000 of the population was 4 15s. 0d in 1801, rising to 5 5s. 7d in 1871, and 0 12s. 0d in 1881. The number of enumerators was nearly 85,000, and in 1901 the number will not be far short of 40,000.
A Vegetable Curiosity.
The gopher plant of the Southwest desert is said to be a real vegetable curiosity. In its general appearance, it looks more like a cactus than a plant, and each ray or arm is tipped with barbs, which, when fastened to the wool of sheep, have to be removed, that being the only way to remove them.
CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS,
Passage of the Postoffice Appropriation Bill by the Senate.
THE PENSION MEASURE ALSO ADOPTED,
HOUSE Agrees to the Amendment Relating to the Time of Payment to Pioneers of Omaha
Indian
WASHINGTON, June 21. In the senate today, Mr. Call gave notice that he would tomorrow call up the adverse report from the committee on foreign relations on the resolution introduced by him relating to the independence of Cuba for the purpose of submitting some remarks.
The conference report on the navy appropriation bill was proceeded with and agreed to.
The senate then proceeded to the consideration of the postoffice appropriation bill. In relation to the first amendatory clause, the committee, increasing the item for mail depots, post office directors' fees, and expenses from $30,000, to $160,000, Mr. Gorman spoke of the postmaster general's plan for having additional detectives to inquire into such small matters as to whether the patrons of a post office are satisfied that the business of the office is well performed, whether the postmaster employs members of his own family, whether intoxicating liquors are sold in the post office building and other matter. He objected to the proposition of the postmaster general to enter upon a system such as he suggested in his statement before the house committee, dividing the country into twenty-six districts with a chief detective for each district and with a corps of detectives to be used for visiting localities and getting "in touch with the people." He (Gorman) did not want any postmaster general to have a force under him whose avowed duty it might be to go around among the people and get "in touch" with them.
Mr. Plumb also spoke against the amendment, but it was agreed to, as were the other committee amendments, and the bill passed.
The senate proceeded to consideration of the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill. The principal amendments recommended by the committee have already been given in the dispatches.
Mr. Sherman, from the committee on foreign relations, moved to increase the compensation of the minister to Turkey from $7,500 to $10,000. Agreed to.
Mr. Edmunds moved to amend the amendment relating to the work of the international American conference by inserting the words "information in respect of" so as to make it read: "For the payment of the share of the United States of a preliminary survey for information in respect of an intercontinental railway," and said he made the motion so as to guard against any moral or implied engagements to go on with the intercontinental railway. Agreed to.
All the amendments having been agreed to, the bill passed.
The senate bills to adopt regulations preventing and in relation to collisions at sea were passed. These bills embody the rules agreed to by the international maritime conference.
The conference report on the pension appropriation bill was presented. The senate receded from the only amendment not arranged in the conference, that for the appointment of two additional pension agents, and the pension appropriation bill now goes to the president.
The senate then adjourned.
WASHINGTON, June 24. In the house today,
after the journal had been read, Mr. Springer
of Illinois called attention to the fact that the
legislative appropriation bills, as amended by
the senate, had been referred to the appropriations
committee without reference to the house.
The speaker said the usual custom had been
followed, that the Record had duly informed
the house of the reference and therefore he
declared the journal approved.
Mr. Butterworth presented the report of
the appropriations committee upon the senate
amendment to the legislative bill.
The report of the committee was agreed to
and a conference ordered.
A conference was ordered on the bill to increase
the number of managers of the national
home for volunteer soldiers.
The senate amendment to the house bill to
extend the time for the payment of the purchase
money for lands of the Omaha Indians
in Nebraska was agreed to.
Mr. McKinley, from the committee on rules,
reported the following:
Resolved, That immediately after the passage of this resolution
the house proceed to consider house bill 5, with the
sentiments amendments and at 2 o'clock Wednesday,
June 25, the previous question shall be considered as
formed.
He demanded the previous question on the
adoption of the resolution, which was ordered,
and twenty minutes' debate was allowed on
either side. There was considerable opposition
shown by the democrats.
Mr. McKinley said the purpose of the resolution
was to secure definite and speedy action upon
the subject of silver. It was results the
republican side was after, said Mr. McKinley,
and politics the democratic side was after.
The house had passed the period of silver
manipulation. It was face to face with
a practical question whether we were to
have free and unlimited coinage of the world's
silver product, or whether we would legislate
to also bind every ounce of silver produced in
the United States and make it part of our
monetary system. On motion of Mr. McKinley
the special rate was adopted without division.
Mr. Conger, chairman of the coinage committee,
presented the report of the committee. It simply
recommended that the house concur in each and all of the senate
amendments to the silver bill and request a
conference.
Mr. Bland of Missouri moved that the house
concur in the senate amendments.
With those motions pending the debate
began.
Mr. Conger defended the action of his committee.
saying It had reported a wise and conservative,
measure. If the bullion redemption feature was
stricken out then the government was placed in
the position of buying gold and silver bullion and
paying for it in silver coin, for that was the only
money provided for the purpose now. Free coinage
meant a profit of $1,100,000 a year to the
bullion owners of this country. It meant
that we should say to the world: "Bring us
your silver and we will give you 10 percent
more for it than you can get anywhere else."
Mr. Conger held that under the terms of the
house bill silver and gold would be equally
within the reach of all, while if the senate
bill was passed the country would be driven
to a silver basis. He held that under the
terms of the house bill silver would appreciate;
under the terms of the senate bill, he
believed, it would not. He wished his colleagues
could understand the pressure that
had been brought to bear by men interested
in silver speculation to secure silver legislation.
Not only have paid lobbyists been playing
their vocation here, but various other means
have been resorted to by silver speculators
to procure legislation. Pools after pools
had been organized in this city to speculate
in silver. Money had been deposited in banks
in this country by hundreds and thousands of
thousands ready to purchase bullion as soon
as this legislation should pass. Those people
were opposed to the house bill. Why simply
because if that bill passed they would be
forced to trust to the market value of their
product. If the free coinage bill passed
congress of the United States it would
increase the value of it 100 percent
above what silver was worth. He had been
invited time and again to join silver pools,
but as long as he had a seat here his voice
should be raised in behalf of the people of
this country, for the laboring man, for the
savings bank depositor, for the crippled and
starved soldiers of the country, in conclusion,
Mr. Conger said that if there was no silver
legislation the responsibility would rest
upon the advocates of free coinage because
the delay had been to this time rested largely
upon their shoulders.
Mr. Bland knew not much about any lobby.
He had not seen it and had never heard of it.
If speculative pools had been organized they
might have been founded upon a belief in
the passage of the house bill, because it
was open to the widest speculation.
One day there might be ten millions in
the treasury and the next not a million.
He criticized the house bill in other respects.
He was for coinage, but if he could not
get it he would vote for this bill if he could
get two amendments, one providing that notes
outstanding should not be limited to the cost
price of bullion, and another that the notes
should be redeemed in coin. This latter was
important in order that coinage should be
kept up and not stored in the treasury simply as a
commodity.
Mr. Brown, of Colorado, said free coinage
was the only way to secure a stable financial
system, but if the coinage bill was not
to pass he would vote for this 100,000 bill as
offering a considerable improvement on the
present conditions.
The question was further debated by
Messrs. Koen and Hill, Kelly, Struble,
Wheeler, and Harding, the latter stating that
he felt it his duty to vote for any measure
that pointed in the direction of free silver.
Adjourned.

Washington Giving an opinion on Anglo-German
Agreement.
BEWLAY, June 24. [Special Cablegram to
The Bun.] Major Wissmann was presented
with a laurel wreath yesterday. He declined
to express an opinion on the Anglo-German
agreement, saying that the fact of his holding
an office under the state forbade his criticizing the government. From this it is inferred that he greatly disapproves of the agreement.
In colonial circles, the indignation over the agreement is increasing. The opinion is freely expressed that more money should be invested in East Africa and that it would be better to sell the company's property to England for a fair sum, notwithstanding this opposition to the settlement. The company will issue tomorrow a prospectus inviting subscriptions for shares of 1,000 marks each to the amount of 9,000,000 marks.
The inhabitants of Heligoland fear that the Germans will build a pier at the island and thus destroy the means of livelihood of the boatmen who now convey passengers to and from the shore.

The court, in its findings, attributes the casualty to the wearing of the propeller bearings. It also finds that the safety of the passengers on the City of Paris was not sacrificed to speed and that the vessel is one of the finest in the merchant marine.

The Delegates Assembling.
Sioux City, Iowa, June 34 * [Special Telegram to The Bice.] The delegates to the republican state convention have nearly all arrived. They are enjoying the entertainment, which is without precedent in the history of Iowa conventions, except the democratic state convention at Sioux City last year. The delegates are all distinguished by badges, which entitles them to the freedom of the city. No wearer of a delegate's badge is allowed to pay fare on the rapid transit lines of the city, while carriages are also provided free and are in waiting before the leading hotels. There is unusual interest in the platform, the main point being the temperance declaration. There has been an earnest contest between the prohibition and anti-prohibition wings of the party for control of the committee on resolutions. The latter are using the result of last year's election as an argument in favor of a moderated declaration, and they are strongly organized. But all signs will fail if the prohibitionists do not dictate the platform and make a ringing and radical prohibition plank.
The nomination of Judge Rothrock of Lima for Judge of the supreme court, Byron A. Bason of Marshall for state treasurer and John Y. Stone of Mills for attorney general is conceded. For secretary of state, N.M. McFarland of Emmetsburg seems to be in the lead, as does J.A. Lyons of Guthrie for state auditor. There is a fine contest among half a dozen candidates for railroad commissioner. The attendance at the convention will be the largest for years.
Attorneys Charged with Bribery.
DES MOINES, Iowa, June 31. [Special Telegram to THE Bice.] Great excitement was caused in the district court this morning in the trial of William Piper, charged with wrecking a Rock Island train in this city in April last. A witness named Langstaff was called by the defense, and in the course of his cross-examination stated that the counsel for the defense had attempted and did bribe him to swear to certain facts in the interest of their client. They had also, through him, employed another witness who proved to be a Pinkerton detective and was secured by counsel for the state to entrap the counsel for the defense in the attempt at bribery. Langstaff, having given the whole matter to the county attorney and was operating under his instructions. The attorneys charged with the bribery are J. L. Evans and W.H. McHenry, Jr. Evans was called to the witness stand and made a statement to the court denying all the charges of Langstaff. Sensational developments are expected to follow.
Searcher Pierce Arrested.
DES MOINES, Iowa, June 31. [Special Telegram to THE Bice.] Searcher Frank Pierce, who shot Terry Chambers, a restaurant keeper, last evening, was arrested today on warrants charging him with attempted murder, impersonating an officer and carrying concealed weapons. He gave bonds for his appearance. The case will probably hinge on whether he was an officer, about which there is some question. Chambers is in a critical condition.
A Fatal Horseback Accident.
MT. PLEASANT, Iowa, June 31. [Special Telegram to THE Bice.] Last evening a team ran away three miles from this city and the wagon and its occupants were thrown off a bridge fifteen feet high.

A Feline Monstrosity.
On last Friday a cat belonging to Fred H. Kruso of 2054 Cunningham Street gave birth to six kittens, each of which was of natural size, but all were joined with a ligament on the side which could not be severed without killing the little ones. Some of the kittens had two and others three limbs. Two of them died on Saturday and as it was known that the others could not long survive, Mr. Kruso accordingly had them immersed in alcohol and hopes yet to recover handsomely for the monstrosity.
Seventh Ward Anti-Prohibition.
About two hundred citizens of the Seventh Ward met at the corner of Twenty-ninth and Walnut Streets last night and organized an anti-prohibition club by electing officers: President, Frank Crawford; vice president, John Didsim; secretary, Nicholas Dardowcewski; treasurer, M.L. Koedor. The following resolution was unanimously adopted:

Roach, testified today that Ted shot Desmond without warning while the latter was talking to Roach. After firing the first shot, Ted followed it up with four more in quick succession. The defense will claim that Desmond had repeatedly threatened to kill Ted, who was in fear of his life and shot to protect himself. Mrs. Desmond is here from Pueblo to push the prosecution.

SCROFULA
Is that Impurity of the blood which produces unsightly lumps or swellings in the neck, which causes stinging sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which develops ulcers in the eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or deafness; which is the origin of pimples, cancerous growths, or "moral" diseases, fastening upon the lungs, causing consumption and death. This is the most ancient of all diseases, and very few persons are entirely free from it.
How Can IT BE CURED?
It can be cured by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, which, by the remarkable cures it has accomplished, has proven itself to be a potent and peculiar medicine for this disease. If you suffer from scrofula, try Hood's Sarsaparilla.
"Every spring my wife and children have been troubled with scrofula, my little boy, three years old, being a terrible sufferer."
Last spring, one of my neighbors had a case of sores from head to feet. We all took Hood's Sarsaparilla, and all have been cured of the scrofula. My little boy is entirely free from sores, and all four of my children look bright and healthy, W. H. ATHERTON, Passaic City, N. J.

STRICKET COUGH.
A $25,000 Damage Suit Against the Street Railway Company.
Alexander McGavock has commenced suit against the street railway company for damages. He alleges in his petition that on Saturday last he was a passenger on a Dodge and Twentieth street cable train, having gotten aboard at Fifteenth and Dodge street about 8 p.m. He further alleges that he was brutally and maliciously assaulted by the conductor of the train, who was assisted by other employees. Those employees beat and bruised the plaintiff and injured his hand and teeth so that he will be permanently disfigured. Mr. McGavock charges that the railway company has constantly kept on employ a number of disorderly and brutal men who constantly engage in the practice of browbeating passengers.
Conductor Pierce of the cable line carries an eye draped in the national colors as a result of his encounter with Mr. McGavock. He states that Mr. McGavock required that the train be stopped at Chicago street to allow him to alight. The train was stopped about thirty feet beyond the street, but Mr. McGavock refused to get off. He was carried along until a train going south was met at Webster street, when he was asked to transfer and be taken back to his street. It is stated that McGavock was considerably intoxicated and lost his balance unless he was given a transfer check. The conductor told him he had no transfers for that point and McGavock started to get off. The conductor of the other train also tried to persuade him to transfer, but just as he was about to get off the train, he stepped back and hit Pierce a hard blow in the eye, knocking him back into the car, following it up with a second one on the mouth.
When Pierce recovered his feet, he grabbed McGavock and pounded him until the other train men pulled him off.
McGavock was then put off the train. Fred W. Gray has commenced suit against Martin I. Murphy to recover $75,000 on a note. William H. Washington has applied for a divorce from his wife, Kittle.

Captain Joss Hinon for
Springfield, Ill., June 21. The Republican congressional convention of the thirty-third district today nominated Captain Joss Hinon of Morrisonville for congress.
No other Baking Powder is "just as good as the 'Royal'" either in strength, purity, or wholesomeness. The "Royal" is superior to all others in all ways. Most housekeepers know this from their practical experience, and the reports of the U.S. Government investigations show it officially. The Government chemist says the "Royal" is "undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking powder offered to the public."
If some grocers try to sell another baking powder in place of the "Royal", they do so because they can make a greater profit upon the other; good evidence of the superiority of the "Royal." To give greater profit the other must be a lower-cost powder, and to cost less it must be made with alum or cheaper and inferior materials.
Because the "Royal" uses more highly refined and expensive materials it costs more to manufacture than any other baking powder, but it is correspondingly purer and higher in leavening strength, and accordingly of greater money value to consumers, although the retail price to them is generally the same. Consumers are entitled to full value for their money, and therefore will not, if wise, accept any substitute for the "Royal."
Unfortunately, not only are many of these would-be substitute powders made from inferior and unwholesome materials, but they are placed before the public with advertisements intended to mislead as to their true character. A powder advertised by its manufacturers to have printed upon its label all the ingredients used in it, proves upon analysis to have in its composition four substances not named upon its label, two of which are lime and sulphuric acid. Most of the so-called alum powders are fraudulently sold as pure cream of tartar goods.
The danger incurred, should such powders be substituted for the "Royal," will be apparent to every consumer. | 4 |

The lluKliienH Situation.
Money continues easy with a very fair de
mand from the city and a moderate call from
the country. Hates are tlrm nt 8 i > cr cent for
choice paper. Kxchango is in moderate sup
ply. General trade is fair nnd collections in
the country are reported by Jobbers as com
fortably easy. Spring bills are beginning to
mature about now , and the prospects nro that
they will bo met with average promptness , as
produce has been selling at better prices for
the past sixty days than in the early spring.
The sugar market continues to show signs of
weakness , and the trust will , it is thought , bo
inell'icd to shade its present quotations. Cof
fees are unchanged , but the market Is not
strong , and n break may come at any moment.
The hot weather and abundant receipts have
affected the local produce market and prices
are lower for domestic green stuff , while
oranges and lemons are higher. The demand
for Fourth of July goods grows brisk and it
Is evident that during the next fortnight
Young America will do its best to reduce divi
dends for the insurance companies. Crop
piospcets continue excellent and with no moro
than the usual drawbacks between this and
harvest time , the surplus product of the state
will bo heavy.

MAKING SIIKI3L1 TIN.
The Only Plant of That Industry in
America.
The only plant at which sheet tin is being
manufactured in North or South America
was put in operation this week at the United
States ircn nnd tin plate works at Deinmler
station , Third ward , MuICecjport , says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. The fact that this
country has for the last ten or twelve years
been paying nearly $30,000,000 annually to
foreign countries , and that not a shoot of tin
was being made on this continent. , urged the
firm , particularly Mr. Croncmoycr , ono of the
members , to make strenuous efforts towards
securing a protective tariff sufllciently high
to enable them to compete with the cheap
labor of foreign manufacturing cities ; their
labors have been crowned with partial suc
cess , as the clause in the McKinle.y bill pro
tecting tin plate has passed the house , and
bids fair to pass the senate , If such action
ho taken , many mills for manufacturing the
product will likely spring into existence.
In anticipation of the measure becoming a
law the linn has placed the plant in operation ,
and it is umlerttood that even if tin plato is
not protected they will endeavor to continue
the manufacture. They have put in a much
improved process by Loyshon < 5c Sons of Tip-
ton , Knglaml. The gentleman and one of his
sons have been in McKecsport for the past
couple of weeks , personally .superintending
the introduction of the plant , which has bceii
place 1 in successful operation. The process
heretofore consisted of live operations , two
dippings in grease and three in tin. Hy the
new process the same results am obtained in
ono operation , by inserting a sheet in n solu
tion of tin and palm oil. The cost of manu
facture is wonderfully cheapened and the
quality of tlio product is said to bo excellent
either for sheet or turn work.
The greater part of the tin imported to this
country comes from South Wales , where the
largest mills In the world are located. There
are mills in France , Italy , Germany and Hus-
sia , but they make scarcely moro than is used
for homo eosumptiou. The import last year
is estimated at U.OOU.OOO boxes , ami it Is worth
about .W a box. The United States works
made tin when the tariff was on it , but was
compelled to quitsomo twelve years ago , when
it was removed.

THE CORN MARKET WAS NARROW ALL DAY,
A Decided Drop In Ons Another
Quint Day In the Provision Market for
Log Pro-
ducts Open Steadily.
California, June 21. [Special Telegram to The Times.]
There was little pond support to the
market today. Before noon prices were a fraction under the bottom points of yesterday. Here it was caught by the put
brink and a very nice little rally followed. The
strength did not hold, however, and before 1 o'clock prices were off nearly as much as at the early decline. There was no very decisive movement and the market became indifferent. Tomorrow with cables were a little lower on spot and futures. Then there were more reports of new wheat moving to market, and this especially infected St. Louis, where the prices were off on one time. Although New York sent dispatches that 700,000 bushels had been taken to load before July 0, and that two boatloads of fresh business today, there were no actual clearances from that port. On the bull side, Howard from the northwest told of an extreme rainfall, rust, and other calamities. Some 25,000 bushels of cash wheat worked here for export, with inquiry for much more. William Dunn cabled that conditions on the other side were becoming more bullish. A prospect of increased export was cleared away by the announcement that the stock
Inland and Santa Fe syndicates would not increase the rate. Others are expected to do likewise. Local trade was pretty well divided. Rayner, McDouald, and Beam were buying freely at times, Haldwin and Farnum sold early. Gilford sold a block and Buchan sold a little. July wheat sold at 85c to 84c to 83c to 81c to 80c at 1 o'clock; August at 85 1/2c to 85c to 84 1/2c to 85 1/2c to 83 1/2c; September at 85 1/2c to 85c to 84c to 85 1/2c to 83 1/2c; December at 87 1/2c to 88 1/2c to 87 1/2c to 87 1/2c to 87Hc. Wheat recovered slightly from the bottom prices at the close. June 81 1/2c, July 81 7/8c, August 83 1/8c, September 83 1/2c, and December 87 1/2c. Vessel agents report that room was engaged for 100,000 bushels of wheat here today. New York reported eleven loads taken for export. On the curb, July wheat held at 84c to 85c. Puts, 81c to 82c; calls, 85c to 84c.
The corn market was narrow today, receipts were about as expected. The estimate for tomorrow was 400,000 ears. The outward movement continues large. Among speculators, there was a desire to get out of July and take September. Hull & Co. offered to exchange at 15c profit. June held steady at 34c; July sold at 34 1/2c; August, 35 1/2c closing at 30c; September, 30 1/2c.
There was a decided drop in oats today. July was neglected early while other months sold lower. Then Hutchison, Logan & Co. and Harvey attempted to get out of July and the result was a slump in the price. July sold 28c to 87 1/2c, closing at 27 1/2c; June was noted at 8 1/4c at the close; August sold at 27 1/2c to 8 1/2c to 20 1/2c; September at 20 1/2c to 20 3/4c to 21c.
This was another volatile day in the provision pit. Dispatches gave 84,000 head at the yards, and prices were 5c to 8c up on an active market. This caused the market for products to open steady. There was pretty good local buying of short ribs early, but Mr. Buchan was a seller later. The offerings of lard were pretty free. July pork sold at $12.65 to $12.70, closing at $12.55, with no important changes in other months. Lard closed 5c lower for July and September and July ribs sold off at 15.25.
On the Chicago market, June 21. [Special Telegram to The Times.]
Receipts were about equally divided between native and Texans, or say 1,000 each. The general market opened steady, best natives selling early fully as strong as yesterday, but late sales were rather lower than at the opening. Texans sold steady from the opening to the close, 'spot-hilly for best fat steers, but some lots of thin cows and other
sold a shade lower. A big run of Texans caused a slight downward trend on the low grades of native butchers' stock. Business was light in the stockers and feeders, but prices shown no particular change as compared with last week. Although receipts show a falling off of 4,000 as compared with this time last week, there has so far been only slight improvement to the general market and no great improvement is anticipated. Choice to extra beeves, $4.55 to $4.85; medium to good steers, $11.25 to $13.50; 1,200 to 1,350 lbs., $13.50 to $14.20; to 1,800 lbs., $13.50 to $14.25; stockers and feeders, $8.50; cows, bulls, and mixed, $8.50 to $9.50; bulk, $8.25 to $8.40; shop-fed steers, $7.50 to $8.50; Texas steers, $2.40 to $3.60; cows, $2.00 to $2.83.
Dull business was active, with a slight advance in values of not more than 5c, but bulk sold readily at slightly higher prices. There were fewer sales, 1,751,611 (more at &I.M) than yesterday for the best mixed. Primary heavy assorted, $1.25 to $1.35; light sorts, $3.75 to $3.80.
Stocks in New York, June 21. [Special Telegram to The Times.]
The day in stocks opened with the beam in the doldrums. There is a clear switch to the bullholds all in; the line. Late forces appear to be moving. The strength in old specialties has been influential in turning the tide. Trust stocks, so far as they affect the railroad list, are helping just at present to lift the prices. The improved action of the market before noon was a little indicated at the opening. The start was dull, especially for the regular list,
however, while a firm tone prevailed, fluctuations were very small in all stocks, with the exception of Flint & Ore Marquis, which ran over less than 1/2 percent. Sugar was the only feature, although there was comparatively large business in Atchison, and it supplied the only point of interest in the entire market. After opening up at 72, it further advanced to 72 1/2, but the report was then received that a decision adverse to the trust had been handed down, and it sold off immediately to 70.4. That was the extent of the damage, however, and a sharp recovery to 72 followed. This was continued further and it touched 73 1/2 later in the hour. Still later it was learned that the decision did not refer to the main question of the trust at all, and at noon the price was up to 74 1/2. Rock Island, Atchison, and Missouri Pacific led the railroad stocks, and the latter named rose to 74 1/2, Reading was up to 73. The improvement recorded in stocks at noon did not hold. Sugar vent off to the closing price last night, 71 1/2. Chicago gas broke down from 37 to 36. The dividend is as yet an annuity. All active railroad stocks weakened from the high figures, but closed with slight gains. Total sales were 1,760,000 shares.
The following were the closing quotations:
MONEY Easy, 1.1 percent.
SUGAR EXCHANGE Quiet, steady; sixty-day bills, $1.05; demand, $1.06.

The Wool Market.
BOSTON, Mass., July 1 [Special Telegram to The Berkshire Times]: There is no change to notice in wool. Sales were made mostly in small lots and the tone of the market was barely steady. Ohio receipts are in very small stock; New England cotton was offered at 35@40c, but was dull. Territory wools are selling at 40@50c for fine, 35@45c for medium and 25@37c for medium. New spring Texas is quiet at 20@22c as to quality. Spring California sold at 17@20c. Oregon wool gives slowly. Pulled wools have been in fair demand with sales of superfine at 30@60c, and of extra, at 22@25c. Foreign wools are firm.
To Nervous Debilitated Men. If you will send us your address we will send you Dr. Dye's Celebrated Voltaic Belt and Appliances on trial. They will quickly restore you to vigor, manhood and health, Pamphlet free. VOLTAIC BELT Co., Marshall, Mich.
The Banking Situation.
Money continues easy with a very fair demand from the city and a moderate call from the country. Rates are firm at 8 1/2 percent for choice paper. Exchange is in moderate supply. General trade is fair and collections in the country are reported by Jobbers as comfortably easy. Spring bills are beginning to mature about now, and the prospects are that they will be met with average promptness, as produce has been selling at better prices for the past sixty days than in the early spring. The sugar market continues to show signs of weakness, and the trust will, it is thought, be inclined to shade its present quotations. Coffees are unchanged, but the market is not strong, and a break may come at any moment. The hot weather and abundant receipts have affected the local produce market and prices are lower for domestic green stuff, while oranges and lemons are higher. The demand for Fourth of July goods grows brisk and it is evident that during the next fortnight Young America will do its best to reduce dividends for the insurance companies. Crop prospects continue excellent and with no more than the usual drawbacks between this and harvest time, the surplus product of the state will be heavy.
Frequently accidents occur in the household which cause burns, cuts, sprains and bruises: for use in such cases Dr. I. H. McLean's Volcanic Oil Liniment has for many years been the constant favorite family remedy.
In anticipation of the measure becoming a law, the line has placed the plant in operation, and it is understood that even if the plate is not protected, they will endeavor to continue the manufacture. They have put in a much improved process by Loshon & Sons of Tipton, England. The gentlemen and one of his sons have been in Council Bluffs for the past couple of weeks, personally superintending the introduction of the plant, which has been placed in successful operation. The process heretofore consisted of five operations, two dipplings in grease and three in tin. By the new process, the same results are obtained in one operation, by inserting a sheet in a solution of tin and palm oil. The cost of manufacture is wonderfully cheapened and the quality of the product is said to be excellent either for sheet or tin work.
The greater part of the tin imported to this country comes from South Wales, where the largest mills in the world are located. There are mills in France, Italy, Germany, and Russia, but they make scarcely more than is used for home consumption. The import last year is estimated at 600,000 boxes, and it is worth about $7 a box. The United States works made tin when the tariff was on it, but was compelled to quit about twelve years ago, when it was removed.

roncixo T/MDB.
Representative Uutterworth of Ohio ,
whoso vigorous criticism of the MelCln-
Icy tariff bill is well romomborcd , nnd
who Is the leading ndvocato In congress
of trade reciprocity with ether Amer
ican countries , is quoted as heartily ap
proving the rccont letter of Secretary
folnlno regarding the policy of adjusting
our tariff with reference to obtaining
concession from the states of South nnd
Central America. Mr. Buttorworth de
clared that Mr. IJlaino reflected the
views of two-thirds of his party , and
that the administration will be
sustained by the houao in giving
expression to the views of the sec
retary. The Qhlo congressman enthusi
astically welcomed the attitude of Mr.
Blaine as an indication that the era of
narrow-gaugo statesmanship is about
over , and that our international trade
relations "will bo dictated no longer
from cabbage and potato patches along
our northern nnd southern borders. " IIo
predicted that if the administration
shall pursue the course indicated in the
message of the president and the letter
of the secretary of state it will bo sus
tained by the people generally , and our
trade nnd commerce with the coun
tries of North and South America will
bo multiplied over and over again , giv
ing us a long and uninterrupted period
of national prosperity.
It is possible that this cheerful view
of what might bo accomplished un
der such a policy as Secretary Blalno
proposes could bo realized. It might
happen , as was suggested by the secre
tary , that if the markets of forty million
people were open to our produce the
farmers of Nebraska would no longer bo
compelled to sell their corn for seventeen
cents and oven loss , per bushel. But can
wo bo certain that the policy recom
mended by Mr. Blaine would result in
opening those markets ? It proposes to
force rather than to invite .trado. Its
idea is to make the tariff a weapon for
extorting from other American coun
tries concessions equal to the advan
tages they would dorlvo from the frco
admission of their products into the
United States. The proposed amend
ment to the tariff bill provides that all
products of American nations shall bo
admitted free to this country whenever
and so long as such nations shall admit
to their ports , frco of all taxes , the food
products and certain manufac
tures of the United States.
This seems entirely fair. it is
doubtless in the true spirit of reciproc
ity. But can we Ucmonstrato that by
the arrangement wo propose the South
and Central American countries would
secure advantages equal in value to
those they would surrondorV It is very
questionable.
The fact is that so far as our food
products are concerned wo need not ox-
pcct over to find for them a very exten
sive market in the countries south of us.
Some of them are already exporters of
such products , and there are few of thorn
that do not grow sufficient to sub
sist their populations. The Argen
tine Republic is already our com
petitor in food products , and it is likely
that in a few. years she will bo able to
supply the deficits of her neighbors on
moro favorable terms than wo can do it.
As to our manufactured products , wo
must bo able to soil most of thorn at a
good deal loss price than now in order to
drive out the European competition
which has become lirmly rooted in the
southern countries. In view of this sit
uation , therefore , and the fact that these
countries generally cannot afford
to dispense with any 'part of their
tariff revenue , even if they
should bo willing to discriminate against
other-nations with which they trade in
favor of the United States , it is by no
means clear - that the policy rccom-
mondcd by Secretary Elaine would have
the happy results predicted by Mr. But
torworth. This matter of extending our
commerce with American nations is of
the most practical character , as wo
ought to have learned from the Pan-
American conference , and this country
Is not in a favorable position to force
concessions. The proposed policy may
by worth trying , but the hopeful view of
some statesmen regarding it is very
likely to bo disappointed.
H CONFKHKKCR ON SILVER.
The house committee on coinage has
submitted a report recommending non-
concurrence in the sontito amendments
to the house silver bill nnd asking that
a conference bo ordered. The house
will act on the report today and It is
not doubted that it will bo adopted.
Mr. Conger , chairman of the commit
tee , has expressed'tho opinion that the
house will never agree to unlimited
free coinage , but that it will accept
the full legal tender nnd coinage -
ago redemption features of the
bill as amended by the senate and
provide for the coinage of four and one-
half million dollars.or four and one-half
million ounces a month. It Is also reported -
ported that some of the extreme free
coinage advocates luwo stated their
willingness .to roccdo from their demand
for free coinage and accept such a meas
ure as the chairman of the house com
mittee on coinage believes the house
will agree to. The zeal of the support
ers of unlimited coinage Is said to have
greatly abated since the action , duo , per
haps , to the very general public expres
sion hostile to their demand.
It is probable that a measure will bo
agreed upon providing for the coinage of
four and one-half million dollars' of
silver a month , and -that the certificates
Issued shall .bo redeemable hi coin of
standard value , shall bo receivable for
all taxes and duos to the United States
of every description , and shall bo a legal
tender for the payment of all debts , pub
lic and private , The coinage of four
and a halt million dollars n month
would absorb the present pro
duction of the United States and add
thirty million dollars a year to the cir
culation. The Increase i\\ \ the curronoy
supply would thus kcop pacu with the
growth of population , while the effect
upon the price of silver , in advancing it
toward a parity with gold , would bo
qulto as decisive as from free coinage.
Under such a bill wo should avoid the
danger of being Hooded with a mass of
European and Mexican silver , iis would
certainly bo the ease if free
coinage were adopted. The profits
of the coiungo would go to the
government Instead ol to Iho bullion
ownora , The provision for the redemp
tion of cortlilcatos In coin 6f standard
value might result In draining gold from
the treasury for u time , but this possi
bility need not cause any serious appro-
honsion. There appears now to bo fair
promise that this question will speedily
bo disposed of In a way that will bo sat
isfactory to the country generally , nnd
with safety to Its financial and commer
cial intorcstH.
AVOID H'OODBiV l'AVK3iaNTS.
Petitions for wooden paving block nro
.again being circulated for signatures
among owners of property along streets
that are to bo paved. With the costly
oxpcrlonco that this city has'had with
the rotten cedar block , no taxpayer can
afford for a moment toglvo wooden pave
ment favorable consideration.
The argument that the ropaving will
bo paid for by the whole city is a delu
sion and a snare. The city may pay for
repairing paVements , but when it comes
rcpavlng , the property adjacent to
the pavement will havo' to pay
the costs. But the city docs
pay a very largo percentage
of Iho wooden pavement and for that
reason every taxpayer is interested in
having pavements laid with the most
durable material. "Whilo It is true that
the paving contractors of Omaha have
all formed a pool for a division of the
spoils it is a matter of general public
concern that laying the cheap wooden
pavement should bo discontinued.
TliU original package bill which passed
the senate as an amendment to the inter
state commerce act , and which has since
boon under consideration by the judici
ary committee of the house , will not bo
reported to the house , a substitute for it ,
moro comprehensive in scope , having
been agreed on by the committoo. This
provides for applying the principle in
volved in the original package bill to
all articles under the intor.stato provis
ion , making them subject to state law as
soon as they enter the state. Thus Now
York would bo enabled to enforce its la w
against the sale of oleomargarine in that
state , which is now inoparatlvo against
this article manufactured in another
state Minnesota could onforoo her law
against dressed moats from Illinois or
any ether state , and any article of commerce
morco which a state might decide , in
the exorcise of its police power , to ex
clude or tax , would become subject to its
laws. It cannot fairly bo questioned that
this is the logical position for con
gress to take if it proposes to delegate to
the states in this respect its authority
over interstate commerce , but it is
hardly to bo supposed that a majority in
either branch of congress will consent to
legislation that would bo so pregnant of
trouble and difficulties as this. It is
probable that the effect of the substitute
will bo to cause the matter to bo dropped
at least until the supreme court can have
another opportunity to moro fully define
the extent and limitation of the police
powers of the states.
THK BKK was in error in accusing the
board of publio works of negligence in
supervising iho refilling" of trenches
made on paved streets by plumbers ,
waterworks and gas companies. The
responsibility rests with the superin
tendent of plumbing. That the work
has not been done in a substantial
manner and in accordance with the city
ordinances is evidenced by the number
of depressions on paved streets. The
laws are particularly stringent and if enforced -
forced to the letter by competent ,
responsible inspectors , the city would bo
spared a largo bill of expense for repairs.
While the carelessness of corporations
is winked at , privtlto citizens are hold to
strict accountability. The law should
bo enforced without fear or favoritism.
"IF the people of Nebraska nro wise , "
says the St. Louis Glo > JC-Jcmocrat , "they
will heed the warning of the loading
bankers and business men of the state on
the prohibition question and vote in fa
vor of high license. The effects of the
prohibitory policy are now so well un
derstood that no state can afford to try
such a method of dealing with the liquor
traffic. " The Globe-Ucmocrat voices the
opinion of the loading newspapers of
the country , as well as the views of the
loading men of all professions and occu
pations. It is a torso expression of com-
inon sense , based on experience , and
supplements the judgment of the bone
and sinew , the commercial life blood of
Nebraska.
THE ordinance prohibiting the con
struction or reconstruction of wooden
sidewalks within the fire limits is a just
solution of the permanent walk prob
lem. In throe years the business portion
tion of the city has undergone a gratify
ing change from wood to stone and co
mmit walks , materially improving the
appearance of the city and contributing
to the comfort of pedestrians. Under
the new ordinance the good work will bo
continued with equal success. No wood
walks within the lire limit district can
bo repaired. When worn and dilapidated
they must bo replaced with walks of
durable material.

' Prudence.

As between the republican aud democratic
parties the furuicrclcuicut Is overwhelmingly
republican. Among them are thousands ol
ntllnnco men whoso fealty to the party can
only bo retained by the nomination of men In
lieu of tools. The day has como when the republican -
publican party c < ui not bo used as the Instru
ment for personal aggrandizement ; nor to
balk Justice 03 between the people and the
corporations. The defection In the mnka has
grown to such nn extent that an honest en
deavor to servo the people must bo clearly
apparent In nil Its deliberation * . All masks
nro oft ahd the light of publio scrutiny Is very
searching. It may bo that Jobbers will cap
ture the conventions but If they do the yawn
ing abyss of political oblivion is ready for
the candidates. Prudence suggests to an
ordinarily astute politician that It were
bolter to accede to the wishes of the voters
than to commit n blundering suicide. The
alliance republicans cnn select the delegates
to the county convention who , in turn can
dictate the delegates to the state convention.
If this Is done there Is yet hone that the
party may not bo cut down In the prime of
its usefulness , and It may continue , otico it
grasps the situation , to administer the affairs
of state In a manner moro Iu harmony with
Justice nnd good conscience.

LINCOLN , Nob. , Juno 21 , [ Special to Tnn
Bii : : . | The secretaries of the state board of
transportation , nt a meeting 6f that body ou
Monday , presented a voluminous report upon
the relations existing iu Nebraska between
the earnings of the railroads nml their coat of
construction. The report was the result of
nn investigation made for the purpose of
ascertaining the need for alterations In the
existing rates of transportation.
The secretaries reported that In their opin
ion B to 0 per cent per annum was n roitsoim-
bio rate of not Income for the railroads and
that 7 per cent was not oxtertlonnto.
Tlio per cent of not earnings on the various
roads of the state are reported ns follows :
Fremont. ElUhorn & Missouri Valley , 2.5 ;
Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha. 2.U ;
Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy , G.O ; Union
Pacific , less than 2 per cent.
Some Interesting ilgures nro produced show"
Ing the basis upon which thc.xo percentages
are reached. The secretaries reported their
utter inability to secure any reliable data ns
to the original cost or the present operating
expenses of the Union Pacific lines.
The secretaries report that there nro no
grounds upon which to base u reduction of
the preseiit maximum rates. The report
closes with the following words :
"A third less railroad mllcngo would per
form equally as well the accommodation re
quired by the public. There would bo some fif
teen millions less capital demanding nn Income
of the public mid rates might be reduced pro
portionally. It Is doubtful If any community
now possessed of these surplus roads would bo
willing to surrender them for the advantage
of lower rates. "
run iiLAKr.r.r.r CASE DISMISSED.
The case ngalnat Charles Smith , Byron
West , Charles Capo , S. B. Hutllold , Francis
Gladwin and William E. Moore , for attempt
ing to lynch G. W. Blnkcloy Sunday morn
ing , came to nn Inglorious ending in Judge
Cochran's court this morning. The defense
succeeded In getting n change of venue from
the nollco court. Blnkcley swore on the
stand this morning that ho could not identify
the defendants us his assailants ; that these
men did not like him , nnd no there
fore supposed they were the men
who assaulted him. This story wus
directly contrary to what Biakeley told the
police , and the prosecutingnttornoy was com
pelled to cross-examine his own witness , nnd
several times Inquired how nuch ho had
gotten for swearing this way. Mrs. Biakeley
could not identify the men , notwithstanding
they came hack three times after Blakeloy'H
clothing. She swore she was in another
room. Tlio court dismissed the defendants ,
but took occasion to caustically roast the
complaining witness , and warn him that If ho
ever came up there again it would go hard
with him if ho did 03 ho had done this timo.
The judge said n great crime had boon com
mitted , and ho believed the guilty parties
were before him ; yet us there was no evi
dence ho must discharge them.
Blukeloy has the reputation of being a
worthless fellow , nnd was arrested last night
nnd spent the night in Jail. This morning
the wife told the Judge that although ho had
taken her earnings nnd spent them for drink ,
nnd when she refused to give him any more
he hud beaten her. she would forgive him und

times separated because of Ins abuse. The
court gave them some advice , roasted
Blukeloy some moro , and told them to go

It behooves the American hog to strengthen the bristles on his back. In Germany and France our porcine products are practically outlawed.

The earnings of railroads for May show an extraordinary increase compared with the corresponding period of 1890. Despite what railroad officials declared was the most expensive rate war carried on in the west, the group of railroads involved report an increase of thirteen and a half percent. The net gain during the month amounted to six hundred and seventy thousand dollars.
The figures forcibly confirm the report of the interstate commerce commission that western rates are grossly excessive, out of proportion to the cost of service.
The senate committee on public lands responds to the demands of the west by reporting in favor of an appropriation of one and a half million dollars for increased surveys of public lands. The settlement and development of the west has been seriously retarded by the failure of the government to keep pace with the progress of the country. In some of the new states and in the territories vast tracks of mineral and agricultural lands remain unsurveyed, causing confusion and expensive litigation. It is due to the west that the government expedite the work and facilitate settlement.
From the Senate:
Representative Butterworth of Ohio, whose vigorous criticism of the McKinley tariff bill is well remembered, and who is the leading advocate in congress of trade reciprocity with other American countries, is quoted as heartily approving the recent letter of Secretary Blaine regarding the policy of adjusting our tariff with reference to obtaining concessions from the states of South and Central America. Mr. Butterworth declared that Mr. Blaine reflected the views of two-thirds of his party, and that the administration will be sustained by the house in giving expression to the views of the secretary. The Ohio congressman enthusiastically welcomed the attitude of Mr. Blaine as an indication that the era of narrow-gauged statesmanship is about over, and that our international trade relations "will be dictated no longer from cabbage and potato patches along our northern and southern borders." He predicted that if the administration shall pursue the course indicated in the message of the president and the letter of the secretary of state it will be sustained by the people generally, and our trade and commerce with the countries of North and South America will be multiplied over and over again, giving us a long and uninterrupted period of national prosperity.
It is possible that this cheerful view of what might be accomplished under such a policy as Secretary Blaine proposes could be realized. It might happen, as was suggested by the secretary, that if the markets of forty million people were open to our produce the farmers of Nebraska would no longer be compelled to sell their corn for seventeen cents and even less, per bushel. But can we be certain that the policy recommended by Mr. Blaine would result in opening those markets? It proposes to force rather than to invite trade. Its idea is to make the tariff a weapon for extorting from other American countries concessions equal to the advantages they would derive from the free admission of their products into the United States. The proposed amendment to the tariff bill provides that all products of American nations shall be admitted free to this country whenever and so long as such nations shall admit to their ports, free of all taxes, the food products and certain manufactures of the United States.
This seems entirely fair. It is undoubtedly in the true spirit of reciprocity. But can we demonstrate that by the arrangement we propose, the South and Central American countries would secure advantages equal in value to those they would surround? It is very questionable.
The fact is that so far as our food products are concerned, we need not expect over to find for them a very extensive market in the countries south of us. Some of them are already exporters of such products, and there are few of them that do not grow sufficient to subsist their populations. The Argentine Republic is already our competitor in food products, and it is likely that in a few years she will be able to supply the deficits of her neighbors on more favorable terms than we can do it.
As to our manufactured products, we must be able to sell most of them at a good deal lower price than now in order to drive out the European competition which has become firmly rooted in the southern countries. In view of this situation, therefore, and the fact that these countries generally cannot afford to dispense with any part of their tariff revenue, even if they should be willing to discriminate against other nations with which they trade in favor of the United States, it is by no means clear that the policy recommended by Secretary Elaine would have the happy results predicted by Mr. Boutworth. This matter of extending our commerce with American nations is of the most practical character, as we ought to have learned from the Pan-American conference, and this country is not in a favorable position to force concessions. The proposed policy may be worth trying, but the hopeful view of some statesmen regarding it is very likely to be disappointed.
The house committee on coinage has submitted a report recommending non-concurrence in the Senate amendments to the house silver bill and asking that a conference be ordered. The house will act on the report today and it is not doubted that it will be adopted. Mr. Conger, chairman of the committee, has expressed the opinion that the house will never agree to unlimited free coinage, but that it will accept the full legal tender and coinage redemption features of the bill as amended by the senate and provide for the coinage of four and a half million dollars, or four and a half million ounces a month. It is also reported that some of the extreme free coinage advocates have stated their willingness to recede from their demand for free coinage and accept such a measure as the chairman of the house committee on coinage believes the house will agree to. The zeal of the supporters of unlimited coinage is said to have greatly abated since the action, due perhaps to the very general public expression hostile to their demand.
It is probable that a measure will be agreed upon providing for the coinage of four and a half million dollars' worth of silver a month, and that the certificates issued shall be redeemable in coin of standard value, shall be receivable for all taxes and dues to the United States of every description, and shall be a legal tender for the payment of all debts, public and private. The coinage of four and a half million dollars a month would absorb the present production of the United States and add thirty million dollars a year to the circulation. The increase in the currency supply would thus keep pace with the growth of population, while the effect upon the price of silver, in advancing it toward a parity with gold, would be quite as decisive as from free coinage. Under such a bill, we should avoid the danger of being flooded with a mass of European and Mexican silver, it would certainly be the case if free coinage were adopted. The profits of the coining would go to the government instead of to the bullion owners. The provision for the redemption of certificates in coin of standard value might result in draining gold from the treasury for a time, but this possibility need not cause any serious apprehension. There appears now to be a fair promise that this question will speedily be disposed of in a way that will be satisfactory to the country generally, and with safety to its financial and commercial interests.
Avoid wooden paving blocks. Petitions for wooden paving blocks are again being circulated for signatures among owners of property along streets that are to be paved. With the costly experience that this city has had with the rotten cedar blocks, no taxpayer can afford for a moment to give wooden pavement favorable consideration.
The argument that the repaving will be paid for by the whole city is a delusion and a snare. The city may pay for repairing pavements, but when it comes to repaving, the property adjacent to the pavement will have to pay the costs. But the city does pay a very large percentage of the wooden pavement and for that reason every taxpayer is interested in having pavements laid with the most durable material. While it is true that the paving contractors of Omaha have all formed a pool for a division of the spoils, it is a matter of general public concern that laying the cheap wooden pavement should be discontinued.
This original package bill which passed the senate as an amendment to the interstate commerce act, and which has since been under consideration by the judiciary committee of the house, will not be reported to the house, a substitute for it, more comprehensive in scope, having been agreed on by the committee. This provides for applying the principle involved in the original package bill to all articles under the interstate provision, making them subject to state law as soon as they enter the state. Thus New York would be enabled to enforce its law against the sale of oleomargarine in that state, which is now inoperative against this article manufactured in another state; Minnesota could enforce her law against dressed meats from Illinois or any other state, and any article of commerce more which a state might decide, in the exercise of its police power, to exclude or tax, would become subject to its laws. It cannot fairly be questioned that this is the logical position for Congress to take if it proposes to delegate to the states in this respect its authority over interstate commerce, but it is hardly to be supposed that a majority in either branch of Congress will consent to legislation that would be so pregnant of trouble and difficulties as this. It is probable that the effect of the substitute will be to cause the matter to be dropped at least until the supreme court can have another opportunity to more fully define the extent and limitation of the police powers of the states.
The Bee was in error in accusing the board of public works of negligence in supervising the refilling of trenches made on paved streets by plumbers, waterworks, and gas companies. The responsibility rests with the superintendent of plumbing. That the work has not been done in a substantial manner and in accordance with the city ordinances is evidenced by the number of depressions on paved streets. The laws are particularly stringent and if enforced to the letter by competent, responsible inspectors, the city would be spared a large bill of expense for repairs.
While the carelessness of corporations is winked at, private citizens are held to strict accountability. The law should be enforced without fear or favoritism.
"If the people of Nebraska are wise," says the St. Louis Globe Democrat, "they will heed the warning of the leading bankers and business men of the state on the prohibition question and vote in favor of high license. The effects of the prohibitory policy are now so well understood that no state can afford to try such a method of dealing with the liquor traffic." The Globe Democrat voices the opinion of the leading newspapers of the country, as well as the views of the leading men of all professions and occupations. It is a torso expression of commonsense, based on experience, and supplements the judgment of the bone and sinew, the commercial lifeblood of Nebraska.
The ordinance prohibiting the construction or reconstruction of wooden sidewalks within the fire limits is a just solution of the permanent walk problem. In three years, the business portion of the city has undergone a gratifying change from wood to stone and concrete walks, materially improving the appearance of the city and contributing to the comfort of pedestrians. Under the new ordinance, the good work will be continued with equal success. No wood walks within the fire limit district can be repaired. When worn and dilapidated, they must be replaced with walks of durable material.
We will, now, see the seven republican councilmen who want to claim $10,000 apiece for their damaged reputations vote to supplant Major Balcomb by Birkhofer. According to John Clark's testimony, the Tammany club is made up of stalwart Republicans, and the members of the council combine belong to the club. How are you, stalwarts?
The new waterworks ordinance for which Councilman Wheeler is the champion, is as full of holes as a skimmer. But even if it were as perfect as it could possibly be framed, Mr. Wheeler would have to explain why his son and partner were made one of the incorporators of the concern.
OMAHA'S manufacturing suburb, though in its infancy, shows a degree of activity and push that ensures important developments in the near future. The owners of the island are laying the foundation of an industrial annex of incalculable value to the future growth of the city.
It is worthy of note that the reduction of the working force of the Union Pacific coincides with McKibbin's reduction of the company's surplus. The toilers are compelled to make up the shortcomings of official rascals.
According to official authority, the police talk too much. A nod or a graceful upward movement of the elbow will serve all practical purposes.
A Roast in Crackers.
The crackers rank is being consolidated, they await an increase of patronage to realize large profits. It is asserted that the Boston schema of taking a cracker to the liquor table for every drink may help their business a good deal.
Justice in New York.
For not obeying a summons to appear in court, a woman was taken from a sick bed and lodged in jail, and during a week's imprisonment, her newborn babe died. On the other hand, the soldiers were all let off without imprisonment. New York officials are not destitute of sympathy.
Bar in the Senate.
All things considered, the senate finance committee might as well have reported back the McClellan hill without amendment. The changes it has made in the direction of lower duties, although sufficiently numerous, are not radical enough to satisfy the tariff reform element of the country, or even of the republican party.
Facts and Figures.
In 1861, when Lincoln became president, the total federal revenues were only $10,503,003, or not quite one-fourth as much as will be expended during the coming year for pensions. These figures denote the wonderful growth of the business of the government; and at the same time they serve to keep the people reminded of the cost of suppressing the great democratic conspiracy in favor of slavery and free trade.
Stretching the Mantle of Patriotism.
It is a bold thing to tell the truth about pensions, and most men fear to be accused of unpatriotic or selfish motives in objecting to the supposed demands of old soldiers. But the conference pension bill is not born of patriotism and justice, nor is it based on principles of good government. The republican party, it is urged, stands pledged to do justice to the soldier. Do pension appropriations of nearly $100,000,000 per year go for naught? Must $50,000,000 more be given to prove that the republican party is the soldier's friend? That party pledged itself to be just, and it has redeemed the pledge most faithfully.
When it becomes recklessly extravagant, it forgets its duty to the American people. A deficit of $5,000,000 can never be explained, excused, or extenuated.
VOICE OF THE STATE PRESS.
New York Times.
The Omaha Bee has cooked the gubernatorial geese of Mr. Broatch.
A Very Lively Ghost.
If the World-Herald considers Governor Thayer dead politically, why do they give so much space to discussing him! A dozen articles referred to him were on one page of last Sunday's paper. Verily, if he is a spirit, he must hover unpleasantly near to the W.H. office.
Hartman and Nottingham.
Republican Times.
Hartman of York's ballot to be looming up pretty strong for congress down in the Second congressional district. He is one of the men who, through the anti-monopoly movement, has helped to make republican success in Nebraska possible this fall. But won't there be a clash between Hartman and Nottingham if they are both candidates for the one nomination on the strength of the same movement?
Not Wealthy Men.
New York Herald.
The list of bankers and businessmen of the state who have signed against prohibition, published in the Omaha papers, is immense and must have much weight in determining the issues before the people. It is the bone and sinew of finance and trade protesting against legislation that will stagnate business, paralyze industries, and depreciate values. There is no sentiment in this. Men who have signed in Fremont are not your whisky men and the same may be said of every list in the state. The admonition should be heeded.
George W. E. Dorsey has represented this district in congress for three terms and he has actually accomplished but one thing - the erection of a public building at Fremont. This is all that his hometown paper seems to be able to say in his favor, and we don't know as that amounts to a great deal, as every man in congress has secured the erection of anywhere from one to five such buildings. To sum the whole matter up, the Third congressional district has been paying Dorsey a salary for six years and all he has in return is a public building at Fremont. Now the question is, do the people of this district wish to be represented by such a stick?
Wall In Garden by Fear.
The democratic papers are now making faces at Governor Thayer because he rescinded his proclamation calling a special session of the legislature. They call him weak and childish and say all manner of ridiculous and foolish things about him. It is real, genuine fear that actuates them. They know the governor's popularity in the republican party and they tremble, knowing that no democrat will stand a ghost of a chance against Governor Thayer. They remind one of a boy in a dark room shouting and yelling at the top of his voice to frighten the hobgoblins. Governor Thayer made a mistake in calling a special session, and had the ordinary manhood, honesty, and strength of character to rescind it; for which he is entitled to the confidence and respect of every honest citizen of Nebraska.
Dirty "U" in the Turner.
Personally, the Times has no occasion to squeal on the result of the Turner circulars. We throw them into the waste basket and make no reply at all. Yet it is not altogether agreeable to have a man or a sneak try to entrap you or lead you through the channels of legislative business into a statement that can be used to injure your reputation. This dirty trick of a bogus Turner tried to entrap the persons that are friendly to prohibition into business propositions that might appear damaging, and when he failed to receive replies sufficiently sensational to suit his purpose, he manufactured letters out of whole cloth and sold them to the Voice for publication. In this way a number of papers that were friendly to prohibition have turned against it, and the loss of any one of them will do much more harm to the cause of prohibition in Nebraska than the Voice will do good. The attempt to impose upon the publishers of Nebraska was a disreputable and dirty act of business, and the forgeries are criminal and should be punished.
Prudence.
President Stevens.
As between the Republican and Democratic parties, the former is overwhelmingly Republican. Among them are thousands of nonsense men whose fealty to the party can only be retained by the nomination of men in lieu of tools. The day has come when the Republican party cannot be used as the instrument for personal aggrandizement; nor to balk justice between the people and the corporations. The defection in the ranks has grown to such an extent that an honest endeavor to serve the people must be clearly apparent in all its deliberations. All masks are off and the light of public scrutiny is very searching. It may be that jobbers will capture the conventions, but if they do, the yawning abyss of political oblivion is ready for the candidates. Prudence suggests to an ordinarily astute politician that it were wiser to accede to the wishes of the voters than to commit a blundering suicide. The alliance Republicans can select the delegates to the county convention who, in turn, can dictate the delegates to the state convention. If this is done, there is yet hope that the party may not be cut down in the prime of its usefulness, and it may continue, once it grasps the situation, to administer the affairs of state in a manner more in harmony with justice and good conscience.

REASONABLE COMPENSATION, Transportation Board Secretaries on Nebraska Railroad Earnings.
SIX PER CENT A YEAR SUFFICIENT, According to results to Identify his As all incident and the CASE is Dismissed Omaha City News Notes.
LINCOLN, Neb., June 21, [Special to The Tennessean]: The secretaries of the state board of transportation, at a meeting of that body on Monday, presented a voluminous report upon the relations existing in Nebraska between the earnings of the railroads and their cost of construction. The report was the result of an investigation made for the purpose of ascertaining the need for alterations in the existing rates of transportation.
The secretaries reported that in their opinion 8 to 6 percent per annum was a reasonable rate of not income for the railroads and that 7 percent was not excessive.
The percent of not earnings on the various roads of the state are reported as follows: Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley, 2.5; Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha, 2.6; Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, 6.0; Union Pacific, less than 2 percent.
Some interesting figures are produced showing the basis upon which the above percentages are reached. The secretaries report that they are unable to secure any reliable data as to the original cost or the present operating expenses of the Union Pacific lines.
The secretaries report that there are no grounds upon which to base a reduction of the present maximum rates. The report closes with the following words:
"A third less railroad mileage would perform equally well the accommodation required by the public. There would be some fifteen millions less capital demanding an income of the public and rates might be reduced proportionally. It is doubtful if any community now possessed of these surplus roads would be willing to surrender them for the advantage of lower rates."
CASE DISMISSED.
The case against Charles Smith, Byron West, Charles Capone, S.B. Hutchinson, Francis Gladwin, and William E. Moore, for attempting to lynch G.W. Blackley Sunday morning, came to an inglorious ending in Judge Cochran's court this morning. The defense succeeded in getting a change of venue from the police court. Blackley swore on the stand this morning that he could not identify the defendants as his assailants; that these men did not like him, and therefore supposed they were the men who assaulted him. This story was directly contrary to what Blackley told the police, and the prosecuting attorney was compelled to cross-examine his own witness, and several times inquired how much he had gotten for swearing this way. Mrs. Blackley could not identify the men, notwithstanding they came back three times after Blackley's clothing. She swore she was in another room. The court dismissed the defendants, but took occasion to caustically roast the complaining witness, and warn him that if he ever came up there again it would go hard with him if he did as he had done this time.
The judge said a great crime had been committed, and he believed the guilty parties were before him; yet as there was no evidence he must discharge them.
Blackley has the reputation of being a worthless fellow, and was arrested last night and spent the night in Jail. This morning the wife told the Judge that although he had taken her earnings and spent them for drink, and when she refused to give him any more he had beaten her. she would forgive him and return home with him. They have several times separated because of his abuse. The court gave them some advice, roasted Blackley some more, and told them to go home and live in peace.
The proposed viaduct over the tracks on North Twelfth Street received a black eye at the council meeting last evening. City Engineer-Townley reported that the estimated cost of the structure would be $15,000. Mr. Archibald stated that he had talked with Superintendent Bignall of the B. & M. and Mr. Litchburn of the Missouri Pacific, and both these gentlemen stated that if their roads were to have a hand in building the viaduct they wished to have something to say concerning the location. Both railroad companies much preferred Tenth Street. Mr. Archibald most vigorously opposed the Twelfth Street plan, branding it as a real estate scheme to increase the price of somebody's property. He did not believe in giving away the people's money for such a purpose. He moved that the matter be laid on the table and the motion carried with a hurrah.

Locknox, Juno 21. [Special Cablegram to The Banner.] Madonna Sara Hemilnlt, who is now performing "Joan of Arc" at Her Majesty's theater in this city, had a narrow escape from death early this morning. Hemilnlt returned to the Savoy hotel, stopping at an early hour from the theater and retired. Finding it impossible to sleep, she determined to take chloral, "but by accident took 120 grains, which was an overdose, and disastrous effects were soon apparent. She appeared to be dying, and several physicians were immediately summoned and remedies were at once applied. It was four hours, however, before any marked improvement was perceptible in Hemilnlt's condition and she was pronounced out of danger. She is now recovering.
The Wire Tap at the Pool.
Discovery of a Smooth Place of Work
For hoisting Pool Roof.
SACramento, Cal., June 31. [Special Telegram to The Banner.] About a year ago the Western Union's wires going to the pool rooms were successfully tapped by sharpers and the bookmakers lost thousands of dollars. Since then a number of efforts have been made to intercept messages giving the results of races, but none have been successful for any length of time. Yesterday the police arrested two men, William Dillon, of the well-known San Jose family, a brother of Al. Dillon, and J. W. Angelo, a telegraph operator formerly employed by the Western Union. Angelo was dismissed about two years ago after being detected in crooked work. The men were caught in room 0 of the Transom block on Pine street. There was a complete equipment of batteries, keys, sounders, receivers and various other instruments employed in telegraphy. By a clever mechanical arrangement the operators had succeeded in making the tap so that it was almost impossible to detect it, and every arrangement had been completed for the robbery of pool sellers on the races at Sheopahond Bay and Chicago.
Superintendent Frank Taylor of the telegraph company said that Dillon is an expert electrician and the instruments for tapping the current were the most ingenious he had ever seen.
The Guardian of London on the Government's Change of Programme with Respect to the Recense Bill.
LONDON, June 21. [Special Cablegram to The Banner.] The Times, commenting on the government's change of programme with respect to the Recense bill, says: "The government have again shifted ground and have given their enemies the right to say that they know neither their own minds nor the minds of their followers. There is no reason to suppose that the obstructive tactics of the opposition will be in the slightest degree relaxed owing to the concessions which Mr. Smith ingeniously supposes will end the controversy."
The Chronicle says the government made the announcement only under the pressure of a diminishing majority and the well-grounded fear of impending defeat.
The Standard says: "The ministers cannot flatter themselves on having purchased the goodwill of their opponents. All they can hope is that they have made it easy for their professed adherents, who have hitherto viewed the bill with dislike or indifference, to give them a cordial and sustained assistance in forcing the measure through parliament."

VICT13I OF THE FAL1J.

Ordinary Mortals.
L. O. Sccrest , the window victim of the
Merchants' hotel , was reported as being a llttlo
better yesterday. His brother claims that lie is
perfectly rational and not only answers ques
tions , but makes inquiries himself.
The first day his brother came hero the
latter asked him If ho know Werner had
thrown him from a window.
Sccrest at once became excited , being then
delirious , and it was found necessary to dis
continue this order of questions.
Yesterday when his brother entered the
room ho said : "Do you know that they cla'm '
that John Werner threw mo out of the win
dow and I have lain here three days and
didn't know anything about iti"
"Wclldid you and Jake have any trouble ? "
asked the brother.
"O no , wo didn't have any trouble. There
has never been a word between us. "
This is the conversation Iho brother savs
transpired.
An urgent request was made yesterday
by u representative of Tan Ben to bo allowed
to interview the injured man , inasmuch as it
was claimed that the latter was perfectly ra
tional , hut the request was emphatically de
nied , and a strict embargo has been placed
on the chamber wherein Secrest liesalthouKh
during the first two days after the catastrophe ,
tragedy or whatever It was. people were per
mitted to call upon the victim.
Sonio of the friends of Werner have become
very much incensed at the newspapers for
publishing all the details obtainable concern
ing this matter , and moro ospeci.illy for sav
ing that the chances wore that Secrest would
die. They say that ho will get well , but the
fact remains that the doctors attending him
have said , no later than this morning when
it was claimed that ho was doing so well ,
that his chance of recovery was ono in a
hundred.

How to Accomplish It.
A delegation consisting of Mayor Gushing ,
City Treasurer Hush , Comptroller Qoodrlch ,
City Attorney Popploton and Councilman
Wheeler , Davis and Blumcr , called upon the
county commissioners yesterday morning to
sco what could bo done about raising the
county assessment.
The delegation found Commissioners An
derson , O'Keoffo , Turner and Berlin with
County Attorney Mahoncy ready to receive
them.
It was about 11:30 : o'clock when the delO'
gallon reached the commissioners' rooms and
nearly half an hour was spent in informal
talk and figuring.
A call to order was finally made and at the
suggestion of Mr. Wheeler , Treasurer Hush
outlined the purpose of the consultation. lie
gave ligures , regarding what the city had
done In tlio way of valuation in the past and
the favorable effect which these valuations
had had upon the sale of bonds. IIo closed
with the remark tlint something wus radically
wrong and hu thought Mr. Poppleton the bust
man to suggcs.t ways and means for righting
"A careful revaluation ofprivate property
Is necessary , " said Mr. Poppleton. "If the
city Is put up and the county reduced I think
that would have the fleslred effect. I think
that a largo Increase In the assessment could
bo made If the corporations wcro gene over
and their capital stock , their bonds , etc. ,
taxed as they certainly should bo and as they
certainly are not at the present time. I would
like to hear from Mr. Muhoney as to making
n horizontal raise of the assessment. "
"All I have to say. " said Mr. Mahoncy , "is
that u horizontal false Is impossible. U you
raise one precinct 10 per cent It must be done
simply with a view to equalizing the property
In that precinct. You cannot change the
general result if the change produces
u higher assessment. I have a suggestion to
offer the Kcntlemen representing ; the city
council. If they will examine the returns
and upon ilnding what they think to be an
injustice , let them Illo a complaint with the
county board and have the value of that
property examined Into. But I would have
you not forget that you can't ' raise Smith's
property unless you lower somebody's else :
j'ou can't raise one precinct unless you lower
another. "
Whou Mr. Mahoncy had concluded , Mr.
Wheeler thanked the board for Its attention
and said that the representatives of the city
would take some action upon the matter.

MISS M'ljKNNAN'd EXHIBIT.
Sonic Excellent "Work from tlio
Urnnlicn ol * Omuliii's Artists. .
MLss Tena McLennan , ono of the most ac
complished , although one of the youngest of
Omaha's numerous artists , is giving an exhi
bition of art in room 109 of Tun Ben build
ing , beginning yesterday afternoon and con
tinuing this afternoon and evening and to
morrow afternoon.
The exhibit includes , work from the brush
of Miss McLcnnan and from these of a num
ber of her pupils.
The display made is llmltol as far as the
number of pictures in tlio exhibit is con
cerned , but much of the work is so excellent
that a visit to the temporary gallery amply
repays whatever effort it may require.
The work displayed by Miss McLennan is
confined principally to paintings of flowers in
oils. In these she has displayed Iho talent
that In her lies. Ono rose particularly is ex
quisitely drawn and Is rich in coloring and
accurate in shading. A bunch of carnations
by the young aroist is of extraordinary worth.
She also has upon exhibition a sketch of a
portion of Pries' lake , which is not inferior to
her other work , bearing evidence that her
talent docs not lie in ono direction only. The
reflection of the woods in thu water is v6ry
good.
In water colors Mrs. Lieutenant Hoe lists
displayed a number of pieces which reflect
thu very highest credit upon her. Her boat
work Is a drawing of two haystacks in which
the shading is perfect. A marine of hers sur
passes most of the work of the kind over dis
played by amateurs in Omaha. The draw
ing , the coloring , the lights and shadows
dews , nil denote talent and careful
attention to details. In the comparatively
short tlmo that Mrs. Hoe lias been a student
in art she has accomplished much , and if Mie
pursues the study nothing ordinary can pre
vent her becoming very successful in her
work in water colors.
Miss Fanny Gilbert exhibits two pieces in
burnt umber that are excellent. Abide from
their intrinsic worth in delineation and color
ing they attract additional attention on ac
count of their comparative novelty , as there
is but very little Work in brown and'white
done in Omaha.
A work in oil "A Fisherman" by Miss
Hattle Stevens , is among the very host pieces
in the collection , and shu has also painted a
study in btill life that U very good
A vase of flowers , by Miss Jennie Burnett ,
is notable for the accur.u-y of its coloring , and
a piece in still life by Miss Getty possesses
this feature in addition to accuracy in draw
ing.Miss
Miss Spearman of Paplllion dlsplavs a land
scape , and Miss Nellie Elliott a btudy In still
life , both of which will attract favorable com
ment.
There are many other works that are highly

more noticeable piccesT

Eight More Union Pacific Employees Discharged and More will Follow.
FACTS VS. OFFICIAL STATEMENTS,
Thereabouts and the
Explanation Which the Alleged Sharp Practice
Occasioned.
Eight more men were discharged at the
Union Pacific shops at quitting time Monday, making a total of 183 mechanics laid off since the "reduction" business began. Those
who remain are working eight hours a day
instead of nine hours and a half, with proportionately smaller wages.
When the work of reduction began, the officials declared that but 5 percent of the men
would be discharged. The estimated number of
men formerly employed by the company here and in Council Bluffs is 1,000. On this basis, 18.8 percent of the men have been discharged since the "work of reducing expenses" was begun.
Prior to the meeting held in Holcomb's office on last Saturday, the foremen at the shops were ordered to prepare lists of all the
men they could possibly dispense with. The
order was compiled with. "But," said a man well acquainted with the situation, "as fast as pieces of work that the men were employed on at the time the first lists were made are finished, you will see other men discharged, until a total of 300 men or 13.3 percent of all these employed shall have been let out, and the remainder are working eight hours a day instead of nine and a half. Yet this company alleges that it sought only to reduce its expenses 2 percent."
The men seem to feel this way also, and
many of them have been heard to say that
they expected the discharge of from five to
fifteen men a day until the maximum of 300
has been attained.
Pioneer U.P. Co.'s Employee.
By request of ten members of the Pioneer
association of U.P. Co.'s employees, a
special meeting of the association is called to
meet in the Durant Ingleside house on Thursday at 4:10 p.m. for the purpose of transacting important business.
T.B. DAIVIN, President.
It Is Still the Concern of the Clubs and
Town.
A rumor that C.H. McKibbin was in town
was circulated yesterday, but it didn't go
far. Somebody said he had been seen on the
streets Monday night, but the story was without foundation.
However, the wily diplomat did make his
appearance in Council Bluffs last Friday.
Not more than half a dozen of his most intimate friends, however, know that he was
there.
A hasty and secret consultation with one
or two confidants as to the situation convinced him that this would not be a healthy
community for him to linger in. Consequently,
he returned to the east that night.
The story of McKibbin's skyrocket career
as a Union Pacific official in Monday's
Bun, created lively comment. It was the topic
of discussion in the clubs, hotels, and cafes.
The investigation by Acting Purchasing
Agent Anderson is still going on, but nothing
has been developed which may be made public.
Those directly interested say they are
satisfied that his strange dealings extend beyond the purchase of lumber and amount to
many thousands of dollars.
It is reported that he has employed an
attorney and proposes to fight the company.
Judge Kelley says that is just what the company wants the young man to do. It will
give him, the Judge says, an opportunity to
find out whether or not there was an organized conspiracy to rob the road.
It is reported that Attorney Kelley has filed
another suit against McKibbin for further
peculations.
The Carpets Were Paid For.
OMAHA, June 24. [To the Editor of THE BUN]: The statement made in THE BUN that
Mr. C.H. McKibbin had forced me to carpet
and curtain my house in Council Bluffs is a
gross error.
When your reporter called on me last
Friday and stated that he had heard the
rumor that Mr. McKibbin's house had been
furnished by me without charge, I not only
denied it but showed the reporter where Mr.
McKibbin's carpets had been purchased and
paid for, the same as those of any other customer of the Morse dry goods company.
S.P. MOSE.
Dickinson's New Position.
Ed. Dickinson's position with the Baltimore
& Ohio road will give him control of
about six hundred and fifty miles of road.
His territory covers the main line from
Chicago to Pittsburg, with branches to
Cleveland, Newark, and Columbus. The
position has been vacant for a year and,
upon learning of Mr. Dickinson's retirement
from the Union Pacific, General Manager
Olds sent a telegram offering the place to
him. His headquarters will be in "The
Rookery" building, Chicago.
A Union Depot Force.
The matter of joint agents, baggagemen
and other employees necessary to a union depot
force has, it is reported, been decided on between
the Union Pacific and Burlington roads, but the officials decline to admit it.
There seems to be a general understanding,
however, that Jim Chambers, ticket agent,
Ed. Haney, depotmaster of the Union Pacific,
and Charles Homelln, baggagemaster of the
B. & M., will be retained. The force will not
be organized for several weeks.
An Association Committee Meeting.
The trans-Missouri committee of the Western passenger association will meet in Kansas
City Thursday next for the purpose of organizing
and taking up matters left by the old association.
This committee is composed of the
general passenger agents of all lines west of
the Missouri river, covering the territory included in the new association.
Griffith's Successor.
It is understood that William Anderson,
traveling auditor, has been selected
appointed by the Union Pacific official
to succeed J.W. Griffith as
auditor of disbursements. He is a good man
and his promotion is said to be one of the
most deserving of the many recently made.
Wright on the K., B. & M. V.
A freight train running to Blair yesterday
over the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri
Valley road, broke in two near Calumet with
the result, that a refrigerator car was derailed,
causing the wreck of a number of cars.
No one was injured, but all trains were held
back by the accident, including the St. Paul
express, due here at 8 o'clock.
Assistant Superintendent Abolished,
The office of assistant superintendent of the
Colorado lines of the Union Pacific road will
be abolished July 1. J.B. Ollchrlst, who held
that position, has resigned.
General Traffic Manager Mellon went west
yesterday afternoon.
Assistant General Passenger Agent Scott
has gone to Chicago.
K.M. Ford, traveling passenger agent of the
Union Pacific, went through Omaha Monday
night with an excursion party of 186 traveling men en route to Denver.
Al Mcllroy, ticket agent in the Auditorium
hotel at Chicago for the Wisconsin Central
road, is in the city,
P.P. Murray, western passenger agent of
the Michigan Central, is in town.

SUITING THE OMAHA STREET
A Man Who Aided in the Street
Consolidation Wants His Commission.
Suit for $20,000 has been commenced in the
district court by William L. Adams against
James J. Millard, James J. Brown, E.W.
Nash, W.B. Millard, W.W. Wells, and the
Omaha motor railway company. The plaintiff
says that he acted as agent, broker, etc.,
when the matter of consolidating the city
railways was under consideration. The value
of the property involved was $300,000, and
Adams says he was to get 1 percent on the
deal, or $3,000. The claim is based on
certain appraisals of property which he
claims to have made.

SUITING THE OMAHA STREET
A Man Who Aided in the Street
Consolidation Wants His Commission.
Suit for $20,000 has been commenced in the
district court by William L. Adams against
James J. Millard, James J. Brown, E.W.
Nash, W.B. Millard, W.W. Wells, and the
Omaha motor railway company. The plaintiff
says that he acted as agent, broker, etc.,
when the matter of consolidating the city
railways was under consideration. The value
of the property involved was $300,000, and
Adams says he was to get 1 percent on the
deal, or $3,000. The claim is based on
certain appraisals of property which he
claims to have made.
Police Pickings.
STILL ISSUING TIME-CHECKS.
Eight More Union Pacific Employees Discharged and More will Follow.
FACTS VS. OFFICIAL STATEMENTS,
Thereabouts and the
Explanation Which the Alleged Sharp Practice
Occasioned.
Eight more men were discharged at the
Union Pacific shops at quitting time Monday, making a total of 183 mechanics laid off since the "reduction" business began. Those
who remain are working eight hours a day
instead of nine hours and a half, with proportionately smaller wages.
When the work of reduction began, the officials declared that but 5 percent of the men
would be discharged. The estimated number of
men formerly employed by the company here and in Council Bluffs is 1,000. On this basis, 18.8 percent of the men have been discharged since the "work of reducing expenses" was begun.
Prior to the meeting held in Holcomb's office on last Saturday, the foremen at the shops were ordered to prepare lists of all the
men they could possibly dispense with. The
order was compiled with. "But," said a man well acquainted with the situation, "as fast as pieces of work that the men were employed on at the time the first lists were made are finished, you will see other men discharged, until a total of 300 men or 13.3 percent of all these employed shall have been let out, and the remainder are working eight hours a day instead of nine and a half. Yet this company alleges that it sought only to reduce its expenses 2 percent."
The men seem to feel this way also, and
many of them have been heard to say that
they expected the discharge of from five to
fifteen men a day until the maximum of 300
has been attained.

Two almost forgotten ordinances were brought forcibly to the remembrance of Billy Boquet, the hackman. One provides that he shall keep his lamps burning and the other that he shall drive only on the right side of the street. He had failed to do either and when he smashed a buggy, he was arrested. Jake Ackers, another hackman, was arrested on a similar charge.
Milo Hickoy, with four other men, were arrested as suspicious characters. They were in company with Pat Clancey and Tom Ruton, two notorious characters. They had in their possession all the necessary appliances for working the shell game and a complaint was filed against Hickoy under the statutes, there being no ordinance to cover the case.
Theodore Alton was arrested at 4:30 a.m. while in the kitchen of a neighbor at Twenty-second and Cumming.
A Matter of Interest to Travelers.
Tourists, emigrants, and mariners find that Hosteller's Stomach Bitters is a medicinal safeguard against unhealthy influences, upon which they can implicitly rely, since it prevents the effects that an unhealthy climate, vitiated atmosphere, unaccustomed or unwholesome diet, bad water or other conditions unfavorable to health, would otherwise produce. On long voyages, or journeys by land in latitudes adjacent to the equator, it is especially useful as a preventive of the febrile complaints and all disorders of the stomach, liver, and bowels, which are apt to attack natives of the temperate zones sojourning or traveling in such regions, and is an excellent protection against the influence of extreme cold, sudden changes of temperature, exposure to damp, or extreme fatigue. It not only prevents intermittent and remittent fever and other diseases of malarial type, but eradicates them, a fact which has been notorious for years past in North and South America, Mexico, the West Indies, Australia, and other countries.
VICTIM OF THE FALL.
He is Shut Up Beyond the Reach of Ordinary Mortals.
L. O. Secrest, the window victim of the Merchants' hotel, was reported as being a little better yesterday. His brother claims that he is perfectly rational and not only answers questions, but makes inquiries himself.
The first day his brother came here the latter asked him if he knew Werner had thrown him from a window.
Secrest at once became excited, being then delirious, and it was found necessary to discontinue this order of questions.
Yesterday when his brother entered the room, he said: "Do you know that they claim that John Werner threw me out of the window and I have lain here three days and didn't know anything about it!"
"Well, did you and Jake have any trouble?" asked the brother.
"Oh no, we didn't have any trouble. There has never been a word between us."
This is the conversation the brother says transpired.
An urgent request was made yesterday by a representative of the family to be allowed to interview the injured man, inasmuch as it was claimed that the latter was perfectly rational, but the request was emphatically denied, and a strict embargo has been placed on the chamber wherein Secrest lies, although during the first two days after the catastrophe, tragedy, or whatever it was, people were permitted to call upon the victim.
Some of the friends of Werner have become very much incensed at the newspapers for publishing all the details obtainable concerning this matter, and more especially for saying that the chances were that Secrest would die. They say that he will get well, but the fact remains that the doctors attending him have said, no later than this morning when it was claimed that he was doing so well, that his chance of recovery was one in a hundred.

FORMALLY ENGAGED.
Prospective marriage of Mr. Charles Metz and Miss Augusta Pomy.
Monday night the formal announcement of the engagement of Mr. Charles Metz, of this city, to Miss Augusta Pomy, was made, the event being celebrated by a gathering of the relatives of the young people at the home of the fiancee, 110 South Tenth street. The marriage will take place early in the coming fall, by which time the groom prospective will have erected a beautiful home on South Twenty-eighth street, upon which work is to be immediately commenced.
This marriage will undoubtedly be the leading event of the year in the German social circles of this city, and will be looked forward to with the greatest interest, because the contracting parties are among the most widely known of their people in this city.
The intending bride is the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gustavo Pomy, the former of whom is the well-known senior member of the firm of Pomy & Segelko, soda and mineral water manufacturers. She is both beautiful and accomplished, while the prospective groom is the eldest son of Fred Metz, the genial and veteran brewer of this city, and also a member of the firm of Metz Bros., the well-known brewers who have succeeded to the original firm of that name established in this city many years ago.
The nuptial event will be awaited with interest by many friends, all of whom have only the kindliest wishes for the happiness of these two young hearts.

IN CHARON'S HANDS.
Omaha's Oldest Expressman Ferried Over the Tide.
Omaha has lost its oldest and almost pioneer expressman in the death of Patrick Hughes, at 1011 Marcy street, in the seventieth year of his age.
The deceased came to this city more than thirty years ago and had followed the express business up to a short time before his death. He was a steady and thrifty man and as a result leaves an estate variously valued at between $20,000, and $30,000.
Mr. Hughes was the father of Mrs. James Flannery, wife of the city street commissioner, and of Mrs. Edward Hoarey of this city.
The funeral will take place today at 9 a.m. Services will be held in St. Patrick's church and interment will take place at St. Mary's cemetery.

Goodman's National Annual.
The National Annual, a comprehensive compendium of Omaha commercial affairs, issued by M. L. Goodman & Bros., managers of the western department of the National Life Insurance company, is one of the neatest, most complete, and handsomest volumes of its kind ever published. It is elegantly illustrated, containing artistic cuts of all the city's notable and private buildings, with lifelike engravings of a large number of our most active and distinguished citizens, besides a mine of information pertaining to Omaha's business, industrial, and social status that cannot be obtained from any other source. Many of the ornamental designs of the volume are superb, and the Messrs. Goodman are justified in the pride they evince over the enterprise.

Raising the City and County Officers' Salaries.
How to Accomplish It.
A delegation consisting of Mayor Bush, City Treasurer Rush, Comptroller Goodrich, City Attorney Poppleton, and Councilmen Wheeler, Davis, and Blumer, called upon the county commissioners yesterday morning to see what could be done about raising the county assessment.
The delegation found Commissioners Anderson, O'Keefe, Turner, and Berlin with County Attorney Mahoney ready to receive them.
It was about 11:30 a.m. when the delegation reached the commissioners' rooms and nearly half an hour was spent in informal talk and figuring.
A call to order was finally made and at the suggestion of Mr. Wheeler, Treasurer Hush outlined the purpose of the consultation. He gave figures, regarding what the city had done in the way of valuation in the past and the favorable effect which these valuations had had upon the sale of bonds. He closed with the remark that something was radically wrong and he thought Mr. Poppleton the best man to suggest ways and means for righting the situation.
"A careful revaluation of private property is necessary," said Mr. Poppleton, "If the city is put up and the county reduced I think that would have the desired effect. I think that a large increase in the assessment could be made if the corporations were gone over and their capital stock, their bonds, etc., taxed as they certainly should be and as they certainly are not at the present time. I would like to hear from Mr. Muhoney as to making a horizontal raise of the assessment."
"All I have to say," said Mr. Mahoney, "is that a horizontal raise is impossible. If you raise one precinct 10 percent it must be done simply with a view to equalizing the property in that precinct. You cannot change the general result if the change produces a higher assessment. I have a suggestion to offer the gentlemen representing the city council. If they will examine the returns and upon finding what they think to be an injustice, let them file a complaint with the county board and have the value of that property examined into. But I would have you not forget that you cannot 'raise Smith's property unless you lower someone else's; you cannot raise one precinct unless you lower another."
When Mr. Mahoney had concluded, Mr. Wheeler thanked the board for its attention and said that the representatives of the city would take some action upon the matter.

MISS M'KEENAN'S EXHIBIT.
Some Excellent Work from the Brushes of Omaha's Artists.
Miss Tena McLennan, one of the most accomplished, although one of the youngest of Omaha's numerous artists, is giving an exhibition of art in room 109 of the Ben building beginning yesterday afternoon and continuing this afternoon and evening and tomorrow afternoon.
The exhibit includes work from the brush of Miss McLennan and from those of a number of her pupils.
The display made is limited as far as the number of pictures in the exhibition is concerned, but much of the work is so excellent that a visit to the temporary gallery amply repays whatever effort it may require.
The work displayed by Miss McLennan is confined principally to paintings of flowers in oils. In these she has displayed the talent that in her lies. One rose particularly is exquisitely drawn and is rich in coloring and accurate in shading. A bunch of carnations by the young artist is of extraordinary worth. She also has upon exhibition a sketch of a portion of Price's lake, which is not inferior to her other work, bearing evidence that her talent does not lie in one direction only. The reflection of the woods in the water is very good.
In water colors Mrs. Lieutenant Roe lists displayed a number of pieces which reflect the very highest credit upon her. Her boat work is a drawing of two haystacks in which the shading is perfect. A marine of hers surpasses most of the work of the kind over displayed by amateurs in Omaha. The drawing, the coloring, the lights and shadows, all denote talent and careful attention to details. In the comparatively short time that Mrs. Roe has been a student in art she has accomplished much, and if she pursues the study nothing ordinary can prevent her becoming very successful in her work in water colors.
Miss Fanny Gilbert exhibits two pieces in burnt umber that are excellent. Aside from their intrinsic worth in delineation and coloring they attract additional attention on account of their comparative novelty, as there is but very little work in brown and white done in Omaha.
A work in oil "A Fisherman" by Miss Hattie Stevens, is among the very best pieces in the collection, and she has also painted a study in still life that is very good.
A vase of flowers, by Miss Jennie Burnett, is notable for the accuracy of its coloring, and a piece in still life by Miss Getty possesses this feature in addition to accuracy in drawing.
Miss Spearman of Papillion displays a landscape, and Miss Nellie Elliott a study in still life, both of which will attract favorable comment.
There are many other works that are highly commendable, these being but a few of the more noticeable pieces.

Healy asked the speaker to rule on the ques
tion whether thcrowas _ a precedent for the
earmark licensing fund. The speaker's
reply created a sensation. He made a long
speech , giving the opinion that there wus u
precedent for such a fund. To allow the
earmarking license fund to accumulate , as
the government proposed , ho thought was a
grave innovation , which the house itself
ought decide upon. The ruling was received
with opposition cheers. After further debate
the ministers retired to discuss the speaker's
opinion. Lord Hnrtlngton und Chamberlain
ulvised the cabinet to drop the clauses. No
definite conclusion wus arrived at , but it is
understood tlmt Hltchio and Goschen have
recognized tbo impossibility of retaining tljo
clauses and will allow them to bo dropped
while retaining their portfolios. On return-

Important Doolxlon by the Now Yorli
Court ill' Appcnln.
AI.UANV , N. Y. , J np 24. The decision ol
the court of nppeulA li the cose of the jicople
In the North River sugar refining company ,
written by Judge Finch , was handed down
today. It says : The Judgment sough !
luniliiHt the defcndaiffU ono that the cor.
porato state which created It asks us to
destroy , and the poiiiilty Invoked represents
the extreme vigor of Uio law. Two questions
nro opened before us first , has the de
fendant corporation exceeded its pow
ers ; nnd , second , does that excess ot
abuse threaten or harm the public welfare !
Wo find It disclosed that It lias become an
integral part and clement of u combination
which possesses over It absolute control and
dictates tfio extent and manner and terms of
Its entire business activity. The defendant
corporation has lost the jwwer to make n divi
dend and Is compelled to pay over , Its net
earnings to n muster , whose scrvunt' It has
become. Under an order from that master It
refused to reline sugar , and by that has
lessened the supply upon the market. It can
not stir unless the master approves , nnd yet
Is entitled to receive from the earnjngs of
other refineries , amassed as profits iu the
treasury of the board , its proportionate share
for division timong Its own stock
holders , who nro now owners of
substitute certificates. In return for this ud-
vuntuiro It bus become liable to to mortgaged ,
not for Its own corporate benefit nlone , but to
supply with funds the controlling board when
that board reached out for other coveted ro-
llncrlcs. All of this is admitted bv the de
fendant. The decision , after further consid
ering the information of the trust , says the
defendant could have prevented it being
founded by refusing to register or recognize
the illegal transfer of stock. They should
have appealed to the law , thus shattering the
trust nt the outset. The question to bo de
termined is whether the conduct of the defend
ant in aiding to form the trust was Illegal
In all these points which have been
reviewed. It Is found that the corporation
was doing the public un Injury.-und , in avoid
ing the state law which compels the reserva
tion of corporate rights , proved unfaithful to
Us charter. The present corporation or trust
puts upon the market a capital stock proudly
defiant of actual values and capable of un
limited expansion. It Is 0110 thing for n state
to respect the rights of ownership nnd quite
another thing to add to the possibility of n
further extension of their consequence by
creating artificial authorities In the manage
ment of such aggregations. If corporations
can combine and mass forces in u solid trust
with a Httlo risk added to the capital ulrcudy
In , within limit to magnitude , a tempting and
easy road Is opened to enormous combina
tions vastly exceeding in number and
strength any possibilities of individual own
ership. The state seeks to protect the indi
vidual rather than combinations. In con
clusion the opinion savs : The defcndent
corporation has violated 5ts charter and failed
In the performance of Its corporate duties and
that in a respect so material and important as
to Justify a Judgment of dissolution. We arc
enabled to decide that in this state there can
be no partnerships of separate and independ
ent corporations , whether directly or indi
rectly through the medium of a trust , no sub
stantial considerations which avoid and
disregard statutory provisions and restraints ,
but that manufacturing corporations must bo
and remain several as they wcro created , or
ono under the statute. The Judgment ap
pealed from is affirmed wit-h costs.
Supreme Court. I ustico Barrett , referring to
the decision , said : "This is u matter in which
I have taken greater interest , I think , than in
any other which has como before tne.
Dn the street the sugar people and those
nterested In the trust appeared to bo more
unused than disconcerted by the decision of
.ho court. They suv the trust has not re
ceived its death blow , but will continue.
Only the method of doing business will bo
iffccted.

of nn Investigation by the
Grand Jury.
CiilCACio , Juno 241 An-1 investigation into
: ho charges of boodling in the city council
was begun by the grand Jury this morning.
Evidence was presented that Mike Mc
Donald , the wealthy ex-gambler , had offered
Alderman Charles Moncar and Simeon
Wallncr $3,000 each to vote for the West
Lialte street elevated railroad ordinance.
They only got $1,300 each nnd mntlo an uffl-
luvit to that effect in the ollico of Joseph C.
Sluckin , recently released from the pcniten-
, iary for election frauds. These things were
sworn to by Mackin und his clerk.
This afternoon attachments wore issued for
the two ex-uldcrmcn Moncar and Wnllncr
and they were brought in and gave bonds for
ippeurunce tomorrow. Moncar says the nfll-
davit bearing Ills name is a forgery nnd the
whole business a conspiracy. It Is through a
nun named Peter Gable that tbo charges of
jribery nro expected to bo proven. Gable Is

NOTIIK JAMI ) : , Ind. , Juno 24. At the com
mencement exercises of the University
Notre Dame Bishop Spaldlng of Peoria to-
light mudo an oration to the graduates. It
was an appeal for higher civilization. The
bishop startled his hearers by giving a view
of the future of every hundred young Ameri
cans who leave college. Twenty-five , ho
said , would ruin themselves by sins of the
lesh and nt forty bo totul wrecks. Tweuty-
Ivo might fall by dishonesty or
ivo degraded by unhappy marriages.
The other fifty might bo fairly
respectable , doing the work of slaves , the
lumdrum work of making money , merely to
exist. Bishop Spauldlng's oration was u pro-
est against materialism and ho struck hard
> lows. His appeal for the higher educa-
ion ot woman and for equal rights with man
called forth n storm of applause. Ho insisted
hat the present position of woman was a
elic of barbarism. The right of woman was
o bo the equal of man in all respects. The
line was near when Americans would cease
o boast of great cities , long railroads and
nero nmteriul progress. "What can riches
juyl" he asked. "Only the outward things. "

"Yes , sir , I would bo satisfied with
nllve , even If 1 was used up twlco as badly , "
declared Engineer W. R. Rogcrson , as ho
limped Into Tin : Br.i : ofllco yesterday morn
ing nnd detailed his experiences In the
Wnbiisli wreck ot Monday. "That was nu
awful experience , and n man wo'ildu't go
through it nllve ouco Iu n hundred times.
You see , we were running about thirty miles
nn hour as wo came up. the straight stretch
Just below there , but I always aim to take
the slack out of the train around that curve
nnd had slowed to about twenty-live miles an
hour. I saw her when she left the track.
Wo wcro about seven feet from the end of
the bridge when the forward trucks of the
engine went over. 1 applied the air , closed
the throttle and twisted down n thumb screw
to hold It there , shouted to the fireman who
was shoveling in coal to save himself , and
Jumped for the tender. I had given her the
air , but ran back Into the cab again to see
that It was nil on , nnd then.climbed on the
tender again. I had hardly reached there
when the engine Jumped Into the
ditch. Tno baggage car struck the
tender , standing It on end nnd
sending mo flying through the air. The ten
der then went whizzing past me , and the bug-
gngo car came flying after that , nnd the
other cur went over -tho other side of the
track.
"How did I feel ? Well , It would bo hard
to tell all tlmtp'tsscd ' through my mind , but I
thought sure I was going to hind under that
engine Iu some way. It was an agonizing
prospect I eun assure you. Ono of the pas
sengers said he saw me Iu the nlr. Ho no
ticed the bumping and then felt the air and
looked out of the window Wo were on the
cur > o , nnd ho said ho saw the engine g6 over
the bank. Ho told mo that I was about fif
teen feet above the drivers when ho saw mo.
I couldn't tell anything about that , but I
know how 1 struck. 1 landed on the driver
on my hip , and then my lags cumo down.
They fell ncross the edge of the Wheel with
such force as to raise u big black and blue
ridge , and Dr. Pinnoy. who has Just exam
ined mo , snvs it is the biggest wonder In the
world that it didn't break my legs.
"I tell you I was mighty thankful that I
screwed down that throttle , for If I hadn't
the shock would have thrown it open nnd that
wheel would have been going at the rate of
sixty miles on hour. It would have ground
mo to pieces In no time. If I hud been thrown
u Httlo further , under the dome. It would have
been the sumo , as thostcam would have cooked
mo. I got out U3 soon as I could and looked
around for Andy , but the poor fellow wus no
where to bo seen. 1 realized ut once that ho
was in the wreck and supposed that wo
would have to dig him out. I went around
the end of the engine , so that I could get a
view of the whole situation. The steam was
escaping through nn inch and n half pipe un
der 140 pounds pressure und was making an
awful nolso. It gradually died away and
then everything wus as still as the grave. I
called to Andy , but received no answer , and
Just then ho came walking away from the
cab. I seized his hand and the flesh nil came
off even to the nails and his arm fell to his
side. His nerves must have been paralyzed ,
as he didn't seem to be suffering any pain.
"The escaping steam had struck against
the top of the cab and been dashed right
back into his face. I believe ho would have
gotten out , but ho must have been stunned
when he fell , us ho wus cut under the oye. It
was a horrible sight and I hope I shall never
sec another like It. The poor fellow was a
splendid specimen of physical manhood. Ho
never drank or used tobacco and was the pic
ture of health and strength. The night be
fore the wreck we stayed , of course , at the
other end of the division at Stunbcrry. Wo
both stopped ut the sumo place , and as wo
were setting outside cooling off before going
to bed ] I noticed n black cloud coming up nnd
spoke about it , saying 1 didn't believe I would
go to bed. Wo went in , however , and when
the storm struck 1 got up , put on my clothes
nnd stuyed up until It wus over. Andy
wouldn't get up , saying he wasn't afraid of
it , and slept through it ull , but for all thut he
never got homo alive.
"What caused the wreck was the breaking
of n flange on ono of the forward truck wheels.
A piece of the flange , nboukeight inches long ,
split out and we wcntolT the second revolution
of the wheel ufter we struck the curve.
It was the quickest stop I ever made , und it
was a luck- one , as the coaches or sleeper did
not leave the track. The engine in going
down spread the rails , so that the coaches
dropped on the tics , but that was all. If the
couches bud gone down they would have
turned clear over , and It would have been
awful. It is impossible to tell how many
would have been killed or injured. If I could
have seen that piece of the flange when it
flew out I could have prevented It all. They
found the piece about u quarter of a mile back
on the straight track. Of course wo could
run all right until we came to the curve.
"If I hud only been on the other side , on
the inside of the curve , wo would have run
into Silver City all right , and perhaps then I
would have discovered it , as a broken flange
is the worst thing in the world to ditch a
'train and I am always on the lookout for
them. Still I mfght not have seen it , mid
then we would have got it on the grade this
side , and it would probably have been u good
deal worse than it was.
"It was something that could not bo avoided.
A flange is liable to break ut any time. There
may bo a flaw In the casting , but it is not on
tlio surface , and the wheel may run
for years and then it happens to strike just
right and over you go. I had only had these
wheels about three months , nnd then thuy
were now. It wasn't the fault of the track.
They have been doing a lot of work along
the line during the past year , and it is in fine
shape. Thut was ono of the best stretches
on the rond. * It was a rock ballasted curve ,
with u lot of now ties Hund steel mils. The
bridges nil along the line have been thor
oughly repaired , und it was u Irtg mistake for
some of the papers to say thuto mils spread
and caused the wreck.
"I have been miming now twenty-years ,
and this is the fourth time I have gone into
the ditch. It makes me feel rather discour
aged. I was hurt worse this time than over bo-
fore. I have been on the Wabash eleven years ,
and this Is the second wreck of mine on this
road. The other time was at Rosoberry ,
whore I ran through an open switch. Wo
went down nnd tipped over. The fireman
Jumped that time and I stuyed with her. No
ono wus hurt. I am bruised along my loft
side from a point four inches above my knee
to the point of the ribs. I tho'jghtl would go
out again this morning , but 1 was too soro.
The shuking of nn engine Is hard enough on a
well man , but when ho Is sere Inside ho can't
stand It. I suppose It will lay mo up for a
couple of weeks , and then 1 will go to work
again. "

BIRKHUISER IS APPOINTED, The Combine's Sherman Scheme Consummated Last Night.
IT WAS THIRTEEN AGAINST TWO, Another Mighty Hogshead of the Commission Chairman Scherer McKinley and IN Promptly Called Down.
It Is now Chairman of the Committee on Public Works.
The combine's chemical scheme was consumed last night, but not until several members of the council, and the outsiders who were stuff for Birchuiser's appointment, had been given a nervous chill.
Birchuiser was on hand early, supported by John T, Clark. His chief supporters Durum, Chaffee, Duvall, Shrevenham Wheeler were on hand, but the quorum that he longed for was very slow in coming. Olson and Hudson and Morearty came in, and Burke-Stick advanced. Then Mr. Lowry arrived, and the thermometer dropped several degrees. This made nine members, one short of a quorum. At 8 o'clock Mr. Conner arrived, and the Birchuiser contingent was thrown into a cold sweat. If the council was called to order and Birchuiser's appointment came in, Lowry's vote would kill the confirmation. Something, just something had to be done. An attempt, highly unsuccessful, was made to bring Mr. Lowry over, and this failing, the quorum was temporarily broken by the retirement of two of the faithful from the room. Birchuiser rushed frantically down to the city council and found O'Connor and Osthoff coming like unwilling boys to school. They were bundled into the council chamber just as the meeting was called to order, with all the members present except Bethol, Sander and Ford.
Among the first papers read by the clerk was Birchuiser's appointment, as follows: To the honorable city council: Gentlemen, as Mr. St. A. D. Bailcomb's term as member and chairman of the board of public works has expired, I have the honor to submit his appointment of P, W. Birchuiser as member of the board of public works, and hereby do designate him the chairman of said board, subject to your confirmation. Hereto attached is his petition asking such appointment. Very respectfully, K. C. Cutlbert, Mayor.
Accompanying the appointment was a petition to the mayor, signed by Robert Williams and a hundred or more other Democrats, asking the appointment.
On roll-call the appointment was confirmed by the following vote:
Yeas Blumer, Cooper, Davis, Donnelly, Madson, Olson, Osthoff, O'Connor, Chaffee, Wheeler, Morearty, McLeod, Surber 11.
Nays Lowry, Kaspar 2.
Absent Bethol, Ford, Sander 3.
Mr. Birchuiser's bond in the sum of $15,000, with J. R. Curdner, E. Paulsen, Charles H. Brown and John T. Clark as sureties, was approved.
The city attorney presented a report upon the ordinance presented by the Omaha Economic Water company, providing for the city of Omaha an abundant supply of water for manufacturing and domestic purposes.
The city attorney reported that the ordinance in question gives the proposed company sweeping and unlimited power to invade streets, alleys, highways, passages, squares and public places. In consideration of such unlimited power, the company agrees to furnish free of charge to the public schools, etc., "water," without specifying the quality or the regulations under which the water shall be furnished. There is nothing in the ordinance which fixes with any degree of definiteness the manner in which streets shall be opened and the public places excavated. "The experience," said the city attorney, "of abutting property owners on South Sixteenth street, growing out of the removal of the pavement (for which they had partially paid by the motor company, and the restoration by the council to the motor company of the deposits made for such removal without regard to or consideration of the rights of abutting owners, who had partially paid for this pavement, ought not to be forgotten in this connection." The report concludes with the statement that "the ordinance is crude, vague and unsatisfactory, and, if it is to be passed, should be carefully and completely revised in such manner as to protect the interests of the city."
The report was referred, with the ordinance, to the Judiciary committee.
A. H. Banquer filed a complaint against the Thomson-Houston electric light company.
"That had better go to the committee on gas and electric lights," said Mr. Wheeler.
"Suppose you let us hear it," said Mr. Osthoff, and the communication was read.
In his complaint, miner stated that he was agent of the United States electric company of New York, manufacturers of electrical power machines, and was brought in contact with purchasers of electric motors.
The complaint continues: "It appears that in cases where a party desires to arrange his power plant for future requirements by purchasing a motor of larger capacity than his present wants, said Thomson-Houston electric light company will accept contracts and payment for such amount of power, provided their motor is used. If any other make is used, they decline to furnish power or make contracts for less than the rated capacity of motor. Said Thomson-Houston electric light company also threatens prospective purchasers that they will not furnish current to any other motor than their own manufacture."
The matter was referred to the committee on gas and electric lights.
The request of Sanitary Commissioner Morrissey for office furniture at a cost of not more than $50 was granted.
Mr. Lowry opposed the expenditure and began explaining his position on the garbage business in general.
"Explain your vote, Mr. Lowry," said President Chaffee, with a vicious rap of the gavel, "but don't enter into a discussion of matters not before the house."
"Mining is not Olesen," said Mr. Lowry, "and I don't want you to nip at me in that way, I want to be treated as a gentleman when I am on the floor, even if I don't vote with you."
Further hostilities were checked and the roll was called, granting Mr. Morrissey's request.
Appraiser W. J. Kennedy presented a communication promising a report on the proposed changetown of Gould on Hamilton street from Twenty-fourth street to Lowe avenue for the next meeting of the council.
The request of Chief Seavy for an ordinance preventing the obstruction of sidewalks was referred to the committee on sidewalks and bridges.
A protest against the proposed paving of Martha street from Tenth street to Thirteenth Street was referred to the committee on paving, curbing and guttering.
On the request of the North Twentieth street property owners for the laying of water mains on Twentieth street from Nicholas to Lake, the city attorney was asked for his opinion as to whether or not the city can require the water works company to lay mains without placing fire hydrants.
Just Inspector Hubert's request for an additional door to the bake oven he uses for an office, in the new palatial police headquarters, was referred to the committee on public property and buildings to report the estimated cost.
The city engineer recommended the paving of enlarged catch basins on Fourteenth street near the railroad tracks to protect the property in that vicinity from damage by overflows. The recommendation was concurred in and the board of public works instructed to have the necessary work made.
Resolutions increasing the salaries of a clerk in the comptroller's office, the city clerk's stenographer and the plumbing inspector's clerk each $10 a month, were adopted and afterwards reconsidered and laid on the table.
The comptroller was instructed to purchase nine copies of the new city directory for use by the heads of various city departments.
The mayor sent in a letter from Claudius Van Tassel Hosier, an aspiring aeronaut of Wichita, Kan., who thinks he can get a large crowd to come to Omaha on July 4 and watch him parachute from a balloon 1,200 feet in the air. He wrote that he would come if the council would offer the necessary inducements. The matter was referred to the committee on police with instructions to take necessary prohibitive measures to meet the case.
The claim of W. H. Putnam for $20 damage caused by the running of June 1 was referred to the committee on claims.
The silent council contemplated upholding the integrity of the city jail by presenting a report recommending the payment of the bills for the work and maintenance except for Free's $500 bill for plumbing, which was recommended to be referred to the committee on sewerage. The report recommended that hereafter all work be done of this character except by contract and underestimates furnished. The council had already been in session over three hours, and had wandered on over possible subjects, but the members came up fresh for a lengthy discussion of the report. Mr. O'Connor asked for further time. Mr. Wheeler roared, "The bills, he said, had already been approved by the committee and should be paid. The investigation was all buncombe of the worst sort." Mr. Chaffee wanted to know why the committee had not held meetings for taking evidence on the alleged steal. Mr. Molourie, as a member of the investigating committee, explained that he had looked at the work, and as far as he knew the work and the bills were all right, and he could not see any use for an investigation. Mr. Cooper, also a member of the committee, explained that he had seen the work and was satisfied with it. After the members had all talked awhile, the report was recommitted to the committee with instructions to report whether or not the charges made against the committee having the work in charge were true or not. It was nearly midnight when this business was disposed of, and Mr. Lowry moved that the council adjourn until this evening. "I'm going now," said Mr. Wheeler. "If you have any one who can bring me back, you'd better send him after me," said the irate mayor, as he stalked out of the room, a picture of offended dignity. "Why don't you call him back!" demanded O'Connor. "It ain't fair. Treat us all alike," yelled the chairman with rising anger. "If you want to adjourn to any other time, name the date." "Move we adjourn." yelled the members present in chorus and walked out, leaving the big bunch of ordinances on the clerk's desk. The only railroad train out of Omaha running expressly for the accommodation of Omaha, Council Bluffs, Doniphan, and Chicago is the Rock Island vestibule limited, leaving Omaha at 4:15 p.m. daily. Ticket Office 1601, Sixteenth and Fremont sts., Omaha. The Veteran Firemen's association drilled on Jackson street last night under the direction of J.J. Donnelly, Jr. Nearly all of the members were in full uniform, and they presented a very fine appearance. A large number of movements were gone through in a very creditable manner. After the drill a short meeting was held in the police court room, at which time it was decided to meet at Max Meyer's store, Sixteenth and Fremont, at 9:30 a.m. today, and march from there with the Ancient Order of Hibernians band to the depot. The Durand hose company will accompany the "vets" and will have the Union Pacific band, so that the Omaha contingent will be a prominent feature in the parade. A letter from the G.W. Holdrege hose company was read, expressing regret that the members would not be able to attend with the other Omaha companies. Each "vet" will carry a black umbrella, which will be raised during the parade to shield the portly "boys" from the burning sun. Chief J.J. Galligan announced that he had received a telegram stating that the veterans would be allowed to compete for a handsome banner offered for the finest appearing company. The gallant veterans will return this evening at 8 o'clock. George Campbell, Hopkinsville, Ky., says: Burdock Blood Bitters is the best preparation for the blood and stomach ever manufactured. In the Commons. London, June 21. In the commons tonight Healy asked the speaker to rule on the question whether there was a precedent for the earmarking licensing fund. The speaker's reply created a sensation. He made a long speech, giving the opinion that there was a precedent for such a fund. To allow the earmarking license fund to accumulate, as the government proposed, he thought was a grave innovation, which the house itself ought to decide upon. The ruling was received with opposition cheers. After further debate the ministers retired to discuss the speaker's opinion. Lord Harrington and Chamberlain advised the cabinet to drop the clauses. No definite conclusion was arrived at, but it is understood that Hitchen and Goschen have recognized the impossibility of retaining the clauses and will allow them to be dropped while retaining their portfolios. On returning to the house Smith asked that further consideration of the licensing bill be postponed to give the government time to consider the speaker's ruling. He promised to announce a decision next Thursday. The new officials of the great Rock Island route, 1602, Sixteenth and Fremont sts., Omaha, are the finest in the city. Call and see them. Tickets to all points east at lowest rates. The Turners. NEW YORK, June 21.

The next convention 'turnfest will be held in Milwaukee in 1894 and the next convention in Washington in 1896. Resolutions were passed looking to the adoption of the Australian ballot reform system and the choice of president by popular vote instead of by electors. The proposition to establish a life insurance company among members of the Turners' band was rejected. A handsome complexion is one of the greatest charms a woman can possess.

"Porato state which created it asks us to destroy, and the policy invoked represents the extreme vigor of the law. Two questions are opened before us: first, has the defendant corporation exceeded its powers; and, second, does that excess of abuse threaten or harm the public welfare? We find it disclosed that it has become an integral part and element of a combination which possesses over it absolute control and dictates the extent and manner and terms of its entire business activity. The defendant corporation has lost the power to make a dividend and is compelled to pay over, its net earnings to a master, whose servant it has become. Under an order from that master, it refused to refine sugar, and by that has lessened the supply upon the market. It cannot stir unless the master approves, and yet is entitled to receive from the earnings of other refineries, amassed as profits in the treasury of the board, its proportionate share for division among its own stockholders, who are now owners of substitute certificates. In return for this advantage it has become liable to mortgage, not for its own corporate benefit alone, but to supply with funds the controlling board when that board reached out for other coveted profits. All of this is admitted by the defendant. The decision, after further considering the information of the trust, says the defendant could have prevented it being founded by refusing to register or recognize the illegal transfer of stock. They should have appealed to the law, thus shattering the trust at the outset. The question to be determined is whether the conduct of the defendant in aiding to form the trust was illegal in all these points which have been reviewed. It is found that the corporation was doing the public an injury, and, in avoiding the state law which compels the reservation of corporate rights, proved unfaithful to its charter. The present corporation or trust puts upon the market a capital stock proudly defiant of actual values and capable of unlimited expansion. It is one thing for a state to respect the rights of ownership and quite another thing to add to the possibility of a further extension of their consequence by creating artificial authorities in the management of such aggregations. If corporations can combine and mass forces in a solid trust with a little risk added to the capital already in, within limits to magnitude, a tempting and easy road is opened to enormous combinations vastly exceeding in number and strength any possibilities of individual ownership. The state seeks to protect the individual rather than combinations. In conclusion, the opinion says: The defendant corporation has violated its charter and failed in the performance of its corporate duties and that in a respect so material and important as to justify a judgment of dissolution. We are enabled to decide that in this state there can be no partnerships of separate and independent corporations, whether directly or indirectly through the medium of a trust, no substantial considerations which avoid and disregard statutory provisions and restraints, but that manufacturing corporations must be and remain several as they were created, or one under the statute. The judgment appealed from is affirmed with costs.
Supreme Court. Justice Barrett, referring to the decision, said: "This is a matter in which I have taken greater interest, I think, than in any other which has come before the court. Down on the street the sugar people and those interested in the trust appeared to be more unused than disconcerted by the decision of the court. They say the trust has not received its death blow, but will continue. Only the method of doing business will be affected."
CHICAGO
of an Investigation by the
Grand Jury.
CHICAGO, June 24. An investigation into the charges of boodling in the city council was begun by the grand jury this morning. Evidence was presented that Mike McDonald, the wealthy ex-gambler, had offered Alderman Charles Moncar and Simeon Wallace $3,000 each to vote for the West Chicago street elevated railroad ordinance. They only got $1,300 each and made an affidavit to that effect in the office of Joseph C. Sluckin, recently released from the penitentiary for election frauds. These things were sworn to by Sluckin and his clerk.
This afternoon attachments were issued for the two ex-aldermen, Moncar and Wallace, and they were brought in and gave bonds for appearance tomorrow. Moncar says the affidavit bearing his name is a forgery and the whole business a conspiracy. It is through a man named Peter Gable that the charges of bribery are expected to be proven. Gable is a gambler and is said to have an unsavory reputation.
NOTES FROM THE EXCHANGE.
Spalding Makes Some Pertinent Remarks to the Graduates.
NOTRE DAME, Ind., June 24. At the commencement exercises of the University of Notre Dame, Bishop Spalding of Peoria tonight made an oration to the graduates. It was an appeal for higher civilization. The bishop startled his hearers by giving a view of the future of every hundred young Americans who leave college. Twenty-five, he said, would ruin themselves by sins of the flesh and at forty would be total wrecks. Twenty-four might fall by dishonesty or be degraded by unhappy marriages. The other fifty might be fairly respectable, doing the work of slaves, the humdrum work of making money, merely to exist. Bishop Spalding's oration was a protest against materialism and he struck hard blows. His appeal for the higher education of woman and for equal rights with man called forth a storm of applause. He insisted that the present position of woman was a relic of barbarism. The right of woman was to be the equal of man in all respects. The line was near when Americans would cease to boast of great cities, long railroads, and mere material progress. "What can riches really give?" he asked. "Only the outward things."
TROUBLE AT SPOKANE
City and County Authorities Clashing in a War.
ST. PAUL, Minn., June 24. A Spokane Falls pecuniary says a serious collision occurred today between the authorities of Spokane County and the city of Spokane Falls, growing out of the contest between two rival street railways for trucks upon the streets. The city council ordered the track of one road torn up, but it secured an injunction from the superior court. Nevertheless, the city authorities went ahead and were all prosecuted. They gave bonds, returning, found a large force clashing the track. They would not yield and the city authorities then arrested the sheriff and his men. Warrants were issued for the arrest of all the members of the city council and the police force and 25 deputy sheriffs have been sworn in. Tomorrow is awaited with much excitement, as it is feared trouble may develop.
Forest Fires in Colorado Timber.
DENVER, Colo., June 24. The timber fires raging near Ward, Boulder County, are reported as doing immense damage to timber and ranches. The fire is beyond control and much valuable mining property is threatened with destruction.

GOVERN, Illi, NOTE:
"Yes, sir, I would be satisfied with alive, even if I was used up twice as badly," declared Engineer W. R. Rogers, as he limped into The Branch office yesterday morning and detailed his experiences in the Washburn wreck of Monday. "That was an awful experience, and a man wouldn't go through it alive once in a hundred times."
You see, we were running about thirty miles an hour as we came up to the straight stretch just below there, but I always aim to take the slack out of the train around that curve and had slowed to about twenty-five miles an hour. I saw her when she left the track. We were about seven feet from the end of the bridge when the forward trucks of the engine went over. I applied the air, closed the throttle and twisted down a thumb screw to hold it there, shouted to the fireman who was shoveling in coal to save himself, and jumped for the tender. I had given her the air, but ran back into the cab again to see that it was all on, and then climbed on the tender again. I had hardly reached there when the engine jumped into the ditch. The baggage car struck the tender, standing it on end and sending me flying through the air. The tender then went whizzing past me, and the baggage car came flying after that, and the other car went over the other side of the track.
"How did I feel? Well, it would be hard to tell all that passed through my mind, but I thought sure I was going to land under that engine in some way. It was an agonizing prospect I can assure you. One of the passengers said he saw me in the air. He noticed the bumping and then felt the air and looked out of the window. We were on the curve, and he said he saw the engine go over the bank. He told me that I was about fifteen feet above the drivers when he saw me. I couldn't tell anything about that, but I know how I struck. I landed on the driver on my hip, and then my legs came down. They fell across the edge of the wheel with such force as to raise a big black and blue ridge, and Dr. Pinoxy, who has just examined me, says it is the biggest wonder in the world that it didn't break my legs.
"I tell you I was mighty thankful that I screwed down that throttle, for if I hadn't the shock would have thrown it open and that wheel would have been going at the rate of sixty miles an hour. It would have ground me to pieces in no time. If I had been thrown a little further, under the dome, it would have been the same, as the steam would have cooked me. I got out as soon as I could and looked around for Andy, but the poor fellow was nowhere to be seen. I realized at once that he was in the wreck and supposed that we would have to dig him out. I went around the end of the engine, so that I could get a view of the whole situation. The steam was escaping through an inch and a half pipe under 140 pounds pressure and was making an awful noise. It gradually died away and then everything was as still as the grave. I called to Andy, but received no answer, and then he came walking away from the cab. I seized his hand and the flesh all came off even to the nails and his arm fell to his side. His nerves must have been paralyzed, as he didn't seem to be suffering any pain.
"The escaping steam had struck against the top of the cab and been dashed right back into his face. I believe he would have gotten out, but he must have been stunned when he fell, as he was cut under the eye. It was a horrible sight and I hope I shall never see another like it. The poor fellow was a splendid specimen of physical manhood. He never drank or used tobacco and was the picture of health and strength. The night before the wreck we stayed, of course, at the other end of the division at Stanberry. We both stopped at the same place, and as we were setting outside cooling off before going to bed I noticed a black cloud coming up and spoke about it, saying I didn't believe I would go to bed. We went in, however, and when the storm struck I got up, put on my clothes and stayed up until it was over. Andy wouldn't get up, saying he wasn't afraid of it, and slept through it all, but for all that he never got home alive.
"What caused the wreck was the breaking of a flange on one of the forward truck wheels. A piece of the flange, about eight inches long, split out and we went off the second revolution of the wheel after we struck the curve. It was the quickest stop I ever made, and it was a lucky one, as the coaches or sleepers did not leave the track. The engine in going down spread the rails, so that the coaches dropped on the ties, but that was all. If the coaches had gone down they would have turned clear over, and it would have been awful. It is impossible to tell how many would have been killed or injured. If I could have seen that piece of the flange when it flew out I could have prevented it all. They found the piece about a quarter of a mile back on the straight track. Of course we could run all right until we came to the curve.
"If I had only been on the other side, on the inside of the curve, we would have run into Silver City all right, and perhaps then I would have discovered it, as a broken flange is the worst thing in the world to ditch a train and I am always on the lookout for them. Still, I might not have seen it, and then we would have got it on the grade this side, and it would probably have been a good deal worse than it was.
"It was something that could not be avoided. A flange is liable to break at any time. There may be a flaw in the casting, but it is not on the surface, and the wheel may run for years and then it happens to strike just right and over you go. I had only had these wheels about three months, and then they were new. It wasn't the fault of the track. They have been doing a lot of work along the line during the past year, and it is in fine shape. That was one of the best stretches on the road. It was a rock ballast curve, with a lot of new ties and steel rails. The bridges all along the line have been thoroughly repaired, and it was a big mistake for some of the papers to say the steel rails spread and caused the wreck.
"I have been mining now twenty years, and this is the fourth time I have gone into the ditch. It makes me feel rather discouraged. I was hurt worse this time than ever before. I have been on the Wabash eleven years, and this is the second wreck of mine on this road. The other time was at Rosberry, where I ran through an open switch. We went down and tipped over. The fireman jumped that time and I stayed with her. Nobody was hurt. I am bruised along my left side from a point four inches above my knee to the point of the ribs. I thought I would go out again this morning, but I was too sore. The shaking of an engine is hard enough on a well man, but when he is inside he can't stand it. I suppose it will lay me up for a couple of weeks, and then I will go to work again.

The Gas Stoves and Ranges These stoves are the very best of their class. They are made in all designs and sizes, for all purposes, and their durability insures them to last a lifetime. Gas only costs $1.50 per 1,000 in Council Bluffs, and one burner consumes 10 feet an hour, making the cost of running about equal to gasoline, with none of its danger and disagreeableness.
Jewel Circulating Water Heater, This heater in installed with the kitchen faucet. It will take the place of the water front in a concise manner and is used in conjunction with a range or cook stove. It is made entirely of iron and packed with cotton wool between the tank and outlet. It will boil about 12 liters from 5 liters of cold water in one hour, an excellent size for a small family.
The Jewel is the only circulating water heater in the world that is compact, affordable, and efficient.
Think of it, try to match it, have one, for it is simply wonderful.
More information on different kinds of stoves, ranges, and electric light globes can be found at 211 and 212 Merriam Block.
Why pay high prices for furniture when you can get the best there is made in every line at prices that will surprise you?
There is no just or purse that would not want to beautify their home, and the People's Installment House is ready to show you how conveniently and quickly you can accomplish it.

The Myfltcrlefl of Its Munty Cellar nnd
Its Unsteady Wnllfl.
The Irani school , at the corner of Irani ima1
Nineteenth streets , U the oldest school in the
northern part of the city. Out of it , the
other schools in that section have grown.
The main building Is nn old brick structure
which Is In n very shaky condition. It was
originally Intended for nn eight-room build
ing , but by utilizing every nook nnd corner
and the basement cloven rooms have been
produced. A small frame building on the
corner of TSvcn'tlcth nnd Izard Is used 03 an
annex nnd In this nro four moro rooms.
Immediately north of the lot on which the
buildings Btdnd Is a railroad track running to
the coal and lumber yards la the neighbor
hood. Over this track heavy freight trains
are run nt nil hours of the day , principally
between 0 n. in. nnd noon. These trains
cause a very perceptible trembling in the old
structure which' Is decidedly annoying to
both teachers and pupils. Besides the trom-
tiling of the building , the noLso made by the
passing trains , the ringing of bells and the
shouting of' the trainmen , causes frequent
and annoying Interruptions which distract
the attention of the pupils. Hcccntly , whllo
the pupils In one of the rooms were ut recita
tion , It Was necessary to suspend operations
for nearly fifteen minutes because of the
noises.
This Is not the only drawback connected
with this building. Entering the basement
room occupied by the first C grade , presided
over by Miss Miles , ono experiences a sensa
tion slmllatrto'tbat felt by a person when en
tering a cave Or vault. The room Is dark nnd
poorly ventilated. Outside the weather was
iiot and sultry , but hero It was found neces
sary to keep n lire burning to prevent the
room from becoming damp and musty. The
effect upon both teacher and pupils , confined
in this dungeon for several hours , day after
day , must bo pernicious In the extreme. Yet
In this room are thirty-eight pupils , their
ages averaging about seven years , who are
compelled to sit in the stilling atmosphere
und absorb learning.
In order to reach another room In the base
ment , It Is'ncccasary to pass through dark ,
vaulted archways , through heavy Iron doors
that iiittlo and creak on their hinges , as
though closing the passage to some monster-
guarded cave to uo entered only by those
having the mystic password. The way led
through musty nnd foul smelling rooms
which had been occupied by classes during
the winter , but were vacated when a decrease
in the attendance took place.
The room occupied by the first C grade ,
presided over by Mrs. Perrin , is a slight Im
provement over that last mentioned , as the
windows are not so much underground , The
musty smell is not so perceptible.
The upper rooms in the building are well
ventilated , but poorly lighted , being shaded
by the largo trees.
This school Is presided over by Miss Anna
Fees , principal , assisted by a corps of Jlftccn
teachers , with Miss C. E. Schaller as assist
ant principal , The teachers are Sadie
Bunker , JCella M. Wilson , Pannto C. Fcrnald ,
Camilla Elliott , Catherine- Fees , Kate M.
Miles. Emma It. Kugh , Stella M. Champlin.
A mclia Shattuck. Minnie S. Dye , Lizzie U.
Necdham , Esther E. Heston and Cassandra
P. Schaller.
The discipline of the school Is excellent ,
every detail being carried out with tlio mini
mum amount of friction , In passing to and
from their rooms the pupils keep in ordcrbut
the shaky condition of the building renders it
unwise to have them keep step. They arc
consequently required only to keep their lines
.straight and pay strict attention to the busi
ness in hand.
There are 7T3 pupils enrolled , with nn average -
ago daily attendance of about six hundred
and fifty. Tlio boys and girls are about evenly
divided as to numbers , with a slight differ
ence in favor of the former. The colored cull- , .
dien In attendance number forty.
Ono of the most novel , and , there
fore , most Interesting features connected
with the work is the room in which
nro the little ones the babies. This is the
llrst A grade , presided over by Miss Hugh.
These llttlo folks are amused as well as in
structed by an ingenious' blending of work
and play. They are Instructed in tlio vaiious
sounds which compose simple words by being
taught to imitate the sounds made by n loco
motive , the blowing off of the steam , the
blowing of the whistle , etc. They are ulso
taught songs , -and during tlio singing indicate
by gestures the gathering ofothu clouds , the
falling of the snow , the fligllt of the birds ,
etc. , impressing the words and their meaninn
Indelibly upon their minds.
Tlio methods of instruction pursued in the
other rooms are , of course , as thorough as in
the ill-it grade , but they do not possess the
same Interest for the average visitor.
A number of the pupils liave attended the
entire school year without having been ab
sent. In the fifth grade the following have
succeeded In making this record : Eddie
Homan , John Meyer. Muttio Bard well ,
Christcim Johnson , Albert Inness. Bertie

F13ST1VA1J OP ST. JOHN.
How nnd Why It Is Celebrated by the
Masonic Fraternity.
Yesterday was known nnd celebrated by the
Masonic fraternity as the feast of St. John
the Baptist , one of the the patron feasts of
the order.
The Masons , imitating the usage , of the
church , have always had their days of fes
tivity. The chief festivals of the'operative
or stonemasons of the middle ages were those
of St. John the Baptist on June 21 and the
four-crowned martyrs on November The
latter were , however , discarded by thb specu
lative Masons nnd the festivals how most gen
erally celebrated by the fraternity nro those
of St. John the Baptist , and St. John the
Evangelist , December " 7 , Those days nro
observed In this country.
St. John the Baptist was the forerunner of
Jesus , a son of the Jewish priest Xucharias
and of Elizabeth , who ns n zealous judge of
morality and an undaunted preacher of rcpcnt-
nnco obtained great celebrity , first in his na
tive country , then littho mountains of Judca ,
and afterwards among the whole nation. His
simple and abstemious nranncr of living
contributed much to his fame , nnd especially
the peculiar purillcation or consecration by
baptism In a river bath , which ho introduced
us a symbol of that moral purity which ho so
zealously Inculcated ,
The frank earnestness and the great fame
with which he preached even In Galileo soon
brought upon him the suspicion and hatred
of the court of Tetrarch Antlpas , or King
Herod , who Imprisoned him , and on the 29th
of August , In the thirty-second or thirty-
third year of his life , caused him to bo be
headed. The 24th of June , his birthday , is
dedicated to his memory through Christen
dom. The patron saint of the Freemasons
has not always been St. John the Baptist ,
but St. John the Evangelist , upon which day
they hold their general assembly , probably in
duced thereto because at this reason of the
year the members could bo better spared
from their business or profession. For this
reason they also chose their quarterly festi
vals , the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary ,
Michaelmas and the festival of S * . . John the
Baptist , which last festival , on account of the
better weather and other circumstances , hav
ing been found to bo more convenient for the
yearly assembly , was often appointed for the
time on which it should bo held , so that its
observance has now become almost universal.
The day is usually 'celebrated by holding a
' table lodjio" and indulging in a general dis
cussion of subjects of interest to the order in
general.
M. L. Blair , alderman , 5th ward. Scranton ,
Pa. , stated Nov. 'Jth'Mi : Ho had used Dr.
Thomas' Electric Oil for sprains , burns , cuts ,
bruises and rheumatism. Cured every time.
MOTOR CAHS IKJIUXG STORMS.
They AVill Il-rcnftcr Remain Motion
less While Thunder Rolls.
The trolley wire for the Harncy street
motor line has arrived , and the work of
stringing it will bo begun at once.
The loss sustained by the company during
the Sunday night storm is not so great as
was at first supposc'd , and it is thought that
$000 will repair all damages.
Hereafter , the company proposes to see
that no damage will result on such occasions.
While the storm is raging , the machinery
will bo stopped , nil connections thrown off ,
and the cars allowed to _ stand till the storm
shall have passed. This they think will be
more satisiactoiy to all parties.
During dry weather , the cflloials state , the
motor wires are absolutely harmless , and are
continually handled by the line men without
inconvenience ; but , during a storm , there is
no knowing what voltage they are carrying ,
nor what damage mav result.

THE OLD RECORDS.
How the County Hopes 'to Receive an
Annual Credit of $ r OO.
It is as yet impossible for the county audi
tor to give any estimate whatever as to what
will bo the real result of his making the ab
stract of taxes for thirty years back , as or
dered by the county commissioners. Ho esti
mates that the work will take three or
four months. It Is the first abstract of the
kind that has over been made in the history of
the county , and involves the examina
tion of all of the old county
records and reading them with the greatest
care. Ho is inclined to the opinion thut this
investigation will rebult in the county's
getting credit from the state for at least SSOO
a year for every ono of the thirty years.
Tliis , however , Is necessarily little moro than
general speculation. The auditor eonaicUvs
the idea of having such an abstract made ns
an excellent ono. All wonder that the com
missioners had not thought of it before.

them on sale today at about one half their former prices. Among the lot we offer :
70 dozen Oxford Cloth Shirts , excellent patterns , woven colors , made up with yoke and in'good

A NEW PRODUCTION.
"Shenandoah," Bronson Howard's greatest triumph, will be presented at Boyd's opera house for three nights and a Saturday in the future, commencing Thursday evening, with the exact original New York cast, scenery, and accessories. The success of this play has been phenomenal, and in New York, after its long run of 800 nights, it ended with a demonstration which was never accorded to any other play. A piece which appeals so deeply to patriotism deserves success, especially when it is as meritorious a piece of work as "Shenandoah" is said to be. It is quite unconventional in its treatment of war, and with what few allowances it calls for in matters of dramatic license, it is said, presents a picture of the situation that commends itself to the intelligence. Its love interest is confessed to be pretty, and altogether daintily imbedded, and it is exciting. The company presenting the play is spoken of in the highest terms. The girls are all very pretty, as well as excellent actresses, and Henry Miller, is said to have made the success of his life as the hero. The sale of seats will commence this morning.

Sackett and Lawrence sold their Eden Museum circuit yesterday to an English syndicate, the consideration being $75,000. The deal takes in the museums at Omaha, St. Joe, and Lincoln. They retain the house at Denver, but propose to place it in the hands of an agent, quit the show business themselves, and devote their time to selling a patent medicine, the right for which Sackett recently secured.
An Important Witness for Crowe.
Dr. Herumann left for Chicago last night, where he will testify in the case of the state against Crowe, the South Omaha packing house man who several weeks ago shot one of Chicago's lewd women and then let daylight through several policemen who attempted to arrest him.
About one year ago, while Crowe was in this city, he fell from a North Twentieth Street cable car, injuring his head very seriously. Dr. Herumann was the attending physician, and expressed an opinion that the fall injured the man's mind. It will be upon this point that he will testify.
From Liberty,
George B. Walters of Liberty pleaded guilty in the United States circuit court yesterday morning to a charge of selling malt liquor without a government license.
"Let's see, where are you from?" asked Judge Dundy, preliminary to imposing sentence.
"I'm from Liberty, sir," said the culprit.
"Liberty, oh! Did you know this man Baker, United States attorney, when he was tramping around that country?"
"Yes, sir, I know him."
"Never mind," interposed the Judge, "If you know Baker I'll let you off lightly. Ten dollars and costs."
Knights of Pythias Illumination Convention, at Milwaukee, Wis., July, 1911.
For this great occasion excursion tickets will be issued from all principal points in the United States and Canada to Milwaukee and return via the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway at half rates.
As its name indicates the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is the direct route to Milwaukee, and as the camp ground for the Uniformed Knights (to which point cars and trains will be run through without transfer) is located directly on this line, it will be seen that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has great advantage over other routes which are able to furnish such facilities, and visiting Knights, their families and friends should be aware of this when purchasing excursion tickets.
A circular giving detailed information will be mailed free upon application to A. V. H. Carpenter, general passenger agent, Milwaukee, Wis.

The Mysteries of Its County Cellar and Its Unsteady Walls.
The Trani school, at the corner of Trani and Nineteenth streets, is the oldest school in the northern part of the city. Out of it, the other schools in that section have grown. The main building is an old brick structure which is in a very shaky condition. It was originally intended for an eight-room building, but by utilizing every nook and corner and the basement five rooms have been produced. A small frame building on the corner of Seventeenth and Izard is used as an annex and in this are four more rooms.
Immediately north of the lot on which the buildings stand is a railroad track running to the coal and lumber yards in the neighborhood. Over this track heavy freight trains are run at all hours of the day, principally between 8 a.m. and noon. These trains cause a very perceptible trembling in the old structure which is decidedly annoying to both teachers and pupils. Besides the trembling of the building, the noise made by the passing trains, the ringing of bells and the shouting of the trainmen, causes frequent and annoying interruptions which distract the attention of the pupils. Recently, while the pupils in one of the rooms were at recitation, it was necessary to suspend operations for nearly fifteen minutes because of the noises.
This is not the only drawback connected with this building. Entering the basement room occupied by the first C grade, presided over by Miss Miles, one experiences a sensation similar to that felt by a person when entering a cave or vault. The room is dark and poorly ventilated. Outside the weather was hot and sultry, but here it was found necessary to keep a fire burning to prevent the room from becoming damp and musty. The effect upon both teacher and pupils, confined in this dungeon for several hours, day after day, must be pernicious in the extreme. Yet in this room are thirty-eight pupils, their ages averaging about seven years, who are compelled to sit in the stilling atmosphere and absorb learning.
In order to reach another room in the basement, it is necessary to pass through dark, vaulted archways, through heavy iron doors that little and creak on their hinges, as though closing the passage to some monster-guarded cave to be entered only by those having the mystic password. The way leads through musty and foul-smelling rooms which had been occupied by classes during the winter, but were vacated when a decrease in attendance took place.
The room occupied by the first C grade, presided over by Mrs. Perrin, is a slight improvement over that last mentioned, as the windows are not so much underground. The musty smell is not so perceptible.
The upper rooms in the building are well ventilated, but poorly lighted, being shaded by the large trees.
This school is presided over by Miss Anna Fees, principal, assisted by a corps of efficient teachers, with Miss C. E. Schaller as assistant principal. The teachers are Sadie Bunker, Ella M. Wilson, Pannto C. Fernald, Camilla Elliott, Catherine Fees, Kate M. Miles, Emma R. Kugh, Stella M. Champlin, A. Maria Shattuck, Minnie S. Dye, Lizzie U. Needham, Esther E. Heston, and Cassandra P. Schaller.
The discipline of the school is excellent, every detail being carried out with the minimum amount of friction. In passing to and from their rooms, the pupils keep in order but the shaky condition of the building renders it unwise to have them keep step. They are consequently required only to keep their lines straight and pay strict attention to the business in hand.
There are 793 pupils enrolled, with an average daily attendance of about six hundred and fifty. The boys and girls are about evenly divided as to numbers, with a slight difference in favor of the former. The colored pupils in attendance number forty.
One of the most novel, and therefore most interesting features connected with the work is the room in which are the little ones, the babies. This is the first A grade, presided over by Miss Hugh. These little folks are amused as well as instructed by an ingenious blending of work and play. They are instructed in the various sounds which compose simple words by being taught to imitate the sounds made by a locomotive, the blowing off of the steam, the blowing of the whistle, etc. They are also taught songs, and during the singing indicate by gestures the gathering of the clouds, the falling of the snow, the flight of the birds, etc., impressing the words and their meaning indelibly upon their minds.
The methods of instruction pursued in the other rooms are, of course, as thorough as in the first grade, but they do not possess the same interest for the average visitor.
A number of the pupils have attended the entire school year without having been absent. In the fifth grade, the following have succeeded in making this record: Eddie Homan, John Meyer, Mattie Bardwell, Christiern Johnson, Albert Inness, Bertie Flynn, Gertrude Johnson, and Nellie Barnum. Those in the third grade are Frank King, Willie Johnson, Charles Holla, and Walter Ennion. In the fourth grade are A. Lueenberg, E. Kear, J. Rico, Ethrlnia Thompson, Ottilia Meyers, and G. Humphrey. In the first grade, Henry Grossman has been present every day.
Those of the pupils who have distinguished themselves by hard and faithful work during the year are as follows: In the eighth grade, Val Evans, May Dullou, Franceska Thompson. Seventh grade, Frank Ennion, Clarence Williams, Lulu Light, Louise Squires. Sixth grade, Anna Bennett and Albert Moninger. Fifth grade, Richard Johnson, Emma Schellburg, Grace Hancock, and John Watts. Fourth grade, Mardetta Knight, Emma Kear, Grace Porter, and Edna Burk. Third grade, Charles Wedell, Clara Engel, Walter Ennion, and Mary Wilcox. Second grade, Annie Swanson, Mary Smith, Lilly Shrader, and Esther Johnson. First grade, Clara Butler, Carrie Gibson, Mary Bell Wallace, Minnie Morrison, Sam Johnson, and Bessie Cook.

Attend to Business.
The collection of garbage under the new system went into effect Monday. Notice had been posted at the dump and elsewhere that after that date no one would be allowed to use the dump without obtaining a permit from the sanitary commissioner. As a consequence, there was a lot of men on hand yesterday to protest. No exceptions will be made in favor of anyone. This was done to keep the work of cleaning the city under the control of the authorities and comply strictly with the ordinance. Each garbage hauler has one ward and is responsible for all the work in it. It has been the custom heretofore to look after only the jobs which had money in them from the hotels and chop houses and pay no attention to the small jobs. The garbage man of each ward is now responsible for the caring of everything, profitable or otherwise, and is ordered to charge neither less nor more than twenty cents per barrel of thirty gallons. A complaint book is kept at the office and Commissioner Morrissey desires the public to understand that someone will be in the office at all times and that he will be greatly helped in cleaning the city if they will send in their complaints by telephone, letter, or person. They will receive prompt attention, the district garbage man and not the householder being held responsible.
Pat O'Toole, the deputy, has been sworn in as constable and will exercise a general supervision of the work. Parties refusing to pay for necessary removals will be sued.

The New Theater.
Ex-Mayor Boyd returned from the east yesterday, having put in two weeks at St. Louis assisting McElfutrick, the architect, in making a sketch of the plans for his new theater. He expects to have the working drawings in thirty days and will let contracts then for the superstructure and proceed with the building as rapidly as possible. McElfutrick says this will be the finest theater, when completed, in America, not including, of course, the Chicago Auditorium.
Mr. Boyd is undecided about the interior finishing. Before reaching a conclusion, he expects to visit New York, Boston, and other eastern cities and inspect all the best theaters there.

FESTIVAL OF ST. JOHN.
How and Why It Is Celebrated by the
Masonic Fraternity.
Yesterday was known and celebrated by the
Masonic fraternity as the feast of St. John
the Baptist, one of the patron feasts of
the order.
The Masons, imitating the usage of the
church, have always had their days of festivity. The chief festivals of the operative
or stonemasons of the middle ages were those
of St. John the Baptist on June 21 and the
four-crowned martyrs on November. The latter were, however, discarded by the speculative
Masons and the festivals now most generally celebrated by the fraternity are those
of St. John the Baptist, and St. John the
Evangelist, December 7. Those days are
observed in this country.
St. John the Baptist was the forerunner of
Jesus, a son of the Jewish priest Zacharias
and of Elizabeth, who as a zealous judge of
morality and an undaunted preacher of repentance
obtained great celebrity, first in his native country, then in the mountains of Judea,
and afterwards among the whole nation. His simple and abstemious manner of living
contributed much to his fame, and especially
the peculiar purification or consecration by
baptism in a river bath, which he introduced
as a symbol of that moral purity which he so
zealously inculcated.
The frank earnestness and the great fame
with which he preached even in Galilee soon
brought upon him the suspicion and hatred
of the court of Tetrarch Antipas, or King
Herod, who imprisoned him, and on the 29th
of August, in the thirty-second or thirty-third year of his life, caused him to be beheaded. The 24th of June, his birthday, is
dedicated to his memory through Christianity. The patron saint of the Freemasons
has not always been St. John the Baptist,
but St. John the Evangelist, upon which day
they hold their general assembly, probably induced thereto because at this season of the
year the members could be better spared
from their business or profession. For this
reason they also chose their quarterly feasts,
the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary,
Michaelmas and the festival of St. John the
Baptist, which last festival, on account of the
better weather and other circumstances, having been found to be more convenient for the
yearly assembly, was often appointed for the
time on which it should be held, so that its
observance has now become almost universal.
The day is usually celebrated by holding a
' table lodge' and indulging in a general discussion of subjects of interest to the order in general.

Pa., stated Nov. 6th: He had used Dr.
Thomas' Electric Oil for sprains, burns, cuts,

MOTOR CARS IN DEALING WITH STORMS.
They Will Remain Motionless While Thunder Rolls.
The trolley wire for the Harnett street
motor line has arrived, and the work of
stringing it will be begun at once.
The loss sustained by the company during
the Sunday night storm is not so great as
was at first supposed, and it is thought that
$600 will repair all damages.
Hereafter, the company proposes to see
that no damage will result on such occasions.
While the storm is raging, the machinery
will be stopped, all connections thrown off,
and the cars allowed to stand till the storm
shall have passed. This they think will be
more satisfactory to all parties.
During dry weather, the officials state, the
motor wires are absolutely harmless, and are
continually handled by the line men without
inconvenience; but, during a storm, there is
no knowing what voltage they are carrying,
nor what damage may result.

THE OLD RECORDS.
How the County Hopes to Receive an
Annual Credit of $800.
It is as yet impossible for the county auditor to give any estimate whatever as to what
will be the real result of his making the abstract of taxes for thirty years back, as ordered by the county commissioners. He estimates that the work will take three or
four months. It is the first abstract of the
kind that has ever been made in the history of
the county, and involves the examination of all of the old county
records and reading them with the greatest
care. He is inclined to the opinion that this
investigation will result in the county's
getting credit from the state for at least $800
a year for every one of the thirty years.
This, however, is necessarily little more than
general speculation. The auditor considers
the idea of having such an abstract made as
an excellent one. All wonder that the commissioners had not thought of it before.

Constipation,
IF not remedied in season, Is liable to
become habitual and chronic. Dramatic purgatives,
further weakening the bowels,
constipate, rather than cure, the evil.
Ayer's Pills, being mild, effective, and
Strengthener in their action, are generally recommended by the faculty as the
best of aperients.
"Having been subject for years to
constipation, without being able to find
much relief, I at last tried Ayer's Pills.
I deem it both a duty and a pleasure
to testify that I have derived great benefit from their use. For over two years
past I have taken one of those pills
every night before retiring. I would not
willingly be without them." O. W.
Bowman, 20 East Main St., Corvallis, Ore.
"I have been using Ayer's Pills and
using them in my family since 1857, and
cheerfully recommend them to all in
need of a safe but effectual cathartic."
John M. Hoggs, Louisville, Ky.
"For eight years I was afflicted with
constipation, which at last became so
bad that the doctors could do no more
for me. Then I began to take Ayer's
Pills, and soon the bowels recovered
their natural and regular action, so that
now I am in excellent health." S. K.
Loughridge, Bryan, Texas.
"Having used Ayer's Pills, with good
results, I fully endorse them for the purposes
for which they are recommended."

IN SUMMER. SUITS
We will not take any chances this time. The season promises to be the shortest we ever had; and we commence an early clearance sale. We offer today two lots of suits at such reductions that buyers can readily see the superior values we offer.
One lot of all wool plain grey cheviot sack suits at $6.50. This is a suit that has been made up to retail for $12.50 to $15; the quality of the goods is excellent. It is lined with double warp Italian, made up stylish, with patched pockets, and makes a splendid business suit.
The second is a large lot of sack and frock suits of black cheviot, the most fashionable material this season. These are made up in fine style with worsted binding and fit elegant; the suit is worth over $15, and we offer them at $9.90.
Ask our salesmen to show you these suits.
FLANNEL, SHIRTS
It is astonishing what a quantity of flannel shirts we are selling this season. The enormous sales induced us to buy very heavily. We have recently closed out a manufacturer's entire stock and place them on sale today at about one half their former prices. Among the lot we offer:
70 dozen Oxford Cloth Shirts, excellent patterns, woven colors, made up with yoke and in good style at 50c; a few weeks ago these shirts would be considered cheap at $1.
40 dozen silk striped French Flannel Shirts at 90c; worth $1.75.
Never were such bargains offered in flannel shirts as we have this week.

Sioux CITT , In. , Juno 25. ( Special Tele
gram to TUB Bm.j : The republican conven
tion today was tlio most harmonious and en
thusiastic that has been held for years. There
wore prognostications of discord mid faction ,
nnd tbcro seemed to bo many rocks upon
which it might strike , but nil such anticipa
tions nro utterly disappointed by the action
of the convention. The chief Interest of the
convention was not In the ticket , although
thOro was a largo Hold of candidates for tlio
various nominations and a spirited contest
among them. The contests , however , wcro
friendly , and the ticket as it is made
up is composed of fairly repre
sentative men , and Judiciously distributed as
to locality. All the nominations were made
unanimous , not merely as u matter of form ,
hut ns the reflection of a gcnultio spirit of
harmony.
The Interest In the convention , ns was ex
pected , centered chiefly in the temperance is-
The reverse uustalncd by the party in
) last year's election in tlio election of a demo
cratic governor brought again to the front the
element of the party which all along has pro
tested moro or less vigorously against the
prohibitory policy. This clement began
BOOH after the election a movement
for the purpose of modifying the de
clared ( position of the party. While
the legislature was in .session the nnti-pio-
hibltlonists held a largely attended conven
tion iu DCS Molncs , nnd the president of tlio
organisation , II. S. Fairall , of Iowa City ,
was charged with t'ho work of organising tlio
force ? for this convention. The counties in
which nro located the larger cities and some
of tlio rural conties scjit strong auti-prohibi-
tlon delegations to the convention , and they
eamu upon the ground early. At the mime
time the nioio radical prohibition clement
took alarm immediately after the call for the
convention. The state temperance al
liance issued n proclamation , calling
upon its members to bo on their guard
and to be active at the primaries. It was
from thcso conflicting factions that cmbar-
lassment was fc.ned , mid in fact predicted.
The two factions last night held separate and
largely attended caucuses. About two bund
led delegates joined in thu anti-pioliibitioii
caucus. The caucus adopted a carefully pre
pared programme of work nnd appointed as a
strong committee to appear before the com
mittee on resolutions nnd to protest against n
prohibitory plank the following named gen
tlemen : II. S. Fairall , J. C. Davis , Col
onel D. E. Lyon , Major William
G , Thompson , Dr. J. A. Uiggcn , J. A.

Prince Seaman , A. W. Erwin , and F. W.
Smith. These arc nil leading icpublicaus and

, xiTiohIbltlon caucus last night was oven moro
larkely attended. It adopted resolutions , the
-'essential ono bgiug as follows :

J. II. Loiter , a noted prohibition leaderwas
designated to present the resolutions to the
platform committco. The contest to contiol
tlio platform committee was au earnest one.
The outiight anti-prohibitionists secured only
two among the eleven members of the com
mittee , being these fiom the Second and
Third congressional districts. But a consid
erable number of the members weio conservative
vative republicans.
The debate in the platform committee was
long and eai nest , and for a time it looked as if
no ngicement was possible. But a final com
promise , however , was readied. The antl-
prohlbitionists accepted the declaration that
the putty makes no now teat of fealty , while
the prohibitionists tire content with the dec
laration against a compromise with the saloon
nnd the platform was unanimously repotted
by the committco and adopted by the conven
tion.
tion.Thcro
Thcro was a powerful sentiment In the con-
.vention In favor of a declaration for unlim
ited silver coinage. The committee was plied
with telegrams and loiters from Washington
piotcsting against such a declaration.
Among other communications on this subject
was one from Speaker Heed. There were
telegrams from every Iowa congressman.
The platform committee was strongly inclined
to unlimited silver coinage , and tlio conven
tion beyond question would have adopted it ,
but the plank as finished declared only lor
frco coinage of the product of American mines.
Thuro was equal anxiety in Washington as
to the tariff plank , but the committee framed
nn independent statement. 'J ho presiding df-
llcor , the venerable ex-Senator George G
Wright of DCS Moincs. an old-time republi
can war horse , added dignity to the conven
tion and added greatly to dispatch business.
Them was also a very largo attendance of the
older leaders of Iowa republicanism , many of
whom came as quiet spectators and not us
delegates.

At 7 n. m. a special train over the Burling
ton brought iu the Omaha Veterans' associ
ation and the Union Pacific lire department
with their friends and two babuls. They
were escorted up street to a hall , where they
were welcomed by the local firemen , and as
the veterans marched up the streets every
one remarked at their line appearance.
The parade formed at } 0 n. m. and marched
thiough tno principal streets iu the following

The Alexanders had a bcjl coupling
nnd the Judges took the time
under advisement until this even

to run over. The hose broke on the Neville
cart after making a run of thirty-five seconds
ends ; tlio board of control bald it was out of
the question to glvo them another trial ,
but us no protests had been
entered and a precedent had
been made nt Kearney where the

another trial , it was decided to give them the
same chance. It they make the run they did
today the PlattMiiouth team will have the

Free anil unlltnltod coinage has for tlio second -
end tlino failed iti the house of represontu-
tlvcs. The majority against It this after
noon was seventeen. The proposition came
up in the form of u motion to nou-eoncur in
the senate's amendments to the Wludom bill ,
the principle of which was free coinage. A
few minutes before n vote was taken it was
feared by many who conscientiously believed
that it would ho Injurious to the best Inter
ests of the country to have free and unlim
ited colnago that the motion to non-concur
would full , as oho democrats wcro exerting
themselves with great vchcmcnco to get all
of their members in line and vote solidly
against , the committee's proposition. It was
nrgued by Mr. Mills and other democrats
that this would bo a good opportunity for the
democrats to make a political point that the
president would veto a frco coinage bill , and ,
knowing this , the.monomcWHsts from the
east would bo justified in voting for frco
coinage against the wi"hes of their constitu
ents because they run no risk of making it
possible for the proposition to bccomo
a law. The limited coinage democrats
woule not bo beguiled and drawn into such a
scheme , and so they voted for non-concur
rence In the senate's amendments. About an
equal number of republicans voted against
non-concurrence , so that as far ns partisan
views were concerned the break of the nnti-
free coinage democrats was but a stand-off to
the republicans who voted for frco coinage.
There was the largest vote cast upon thtsprop-
osition that has been developed for some
weeks , 287 out of the 330 members being
recorded as voting. Thcro was a very
perceptible agitation on both sides of
the house as the roll was being called upon
the first amendment free coinage.
A number of senators fiom both sides of
tno chamber were on the floor of the house
urging their friends to stand to their convic
tions. There was but one aye and nny vote
taken--that upon the question of concurrence
in the senate's amendment for frco coinage.
The other votes worn viva voice , as it becumo
apparent that the anti-free coinage men had
a linn majority of seventeen.
The fico coinage men in both houses
have given up the contest. It is
conceded Hint the conference committee will
niftco to u bill providing for the coinage of
54,500,000 -J.ritKI.OOO ounces of silver bullion
monthly , and that thu certificates issued for
the purchase of the bullion will bo made a
full legal tender for public and private debts.
This A\S ! accepted by nearly all the frco
coinage men as satisfactory , and it is believed
that it will uot only satisfy the silver produc
ing states , but glvo the most general satisfac
tion to liberal silver men in ovnry section of
the country. It will set"at rest
all fears which would constantly bo
entertained under a frco colnago act of hav-
a ing nlsurplus'offorcignbnllloncoinodflnto1
American money which would take the place
of our gold and eventually drain the United
States of one of its principal metal bases of
finances.
Barring very unexpected changes , there
will be no more excitement over the silver
question iu Washington and within a few
days a silver bill will become a law.
Nebraska's three representatives voted sol
idly , as thov have on several former occasions
in this session , for free colnago and for the
semite amendment providing for a full legal
tender clause in the bill.
SOUTH 1UKOTA KICKS OV TUB CIICYnVXES.
Senator Pottiijrcw of South Dakota , who is
a member of the senate committco on Indian
affairs , says the bloodthirsty Ohoycnncs on
Tongno river and other sections of Montana
will not bo shipped down into his state. lie
says the appropriation placed in the Indian
bill in the house at the icuuest of Uepresen-
tativo Cai ter , providing for tiio transfer of
the Cheyeiincs from Montana to the Sioux
icsorvation in South Dakota , will bo stricken
out iu the senate because they are not wanted
in his state. Senator Pettljrrow says that ho
would prefer and thinks it would bo much
easier to have the 5'WChoyennos ' In South Da
kota transferred to Montana than to have
the 200 Choycnnes in the 'lat
ter state sent down into the former.
Ho has given notice to the Montana men that
they need not expect to get rid of their thiev
ing and murderous Choyennes , ns they are
termed , if they expect to send thorn to South
Dakota , and Senator Pcttlgrow is in a posi
tion to fullill his promises. Senator Petti-
grew says fnither that he does not sea how
the Clicycniies of Montana could bo evangel-
bed any better in South Dakota than in Mon
tana , or why it could bo expected that the
climate iu ills state could have any more of a
moral influence upon the savages than the
salubrioi s atmosphere of Montana.
A bKXATOUIUglOKE.
A practical Joke was perpetrated by Sen
ator Edmunds upon Senator Call today. The
latter is the most nearly incessant talker in
the upper branch of congress and never fails'
to cmuraco an opportunity to tnlce up space
In the Congressional Hecord. This afternoon
ho opened himself and thought ho would
make some munitions to bo used in Ills approaching
preaching campaign by advocating nn inde
pendent lorm of government for the island of
Cuba. Senator Edmunds immediately arose
and said that inasmuch us ttio senator from
Florida desired to speak upon international
comity and alfairs which properly belonged
to an executive session of the senate the
doors should bo closed. His suggestion was
adopted and the speech of Senator Call will ,
of course , not appear in the Hecord ,
and of course cannot ho given to the public.
Senator Call did not appear to enjoy the hot
weather Joke and it is said the speech which
ho Intended to bo of several hours' length oc
cupied but a few minutes behind the closed
doors , whore the temperature was almost 10D.
This blow came upon the heels of n severe
"scutching" at the hands of Senator Ing-alls
and others for a gross breach of the privil
eges of the senate. Mr. Call published In the
Uoeorfl today a statement intended to show
that ho had done more than everybody clso
in the senate. It was a comparison of the
number of bills gotten through by each
senator mid was full of misrepresentations.
One by ono the senators got up and de
nounced the publication as n tissue of false
hoods. Verily Senator Call is having u hard
vow to hoe towards re-election.
mu TWO KINDS ov COI.VAQD.
I asked an ultra free eoinngo advocate and
11 determined limited coinage man In the sen
ate to toll me , In a sentence each , If possible ,
why ttio positions they occupied in the pres
ent contest wore the most tenable. The free
coinage senator said :
"Tho nubile man who takes n position
against the frco admission of raw material
with which to make money itself cannot bo
regarded us an advocate of relief from the
scarcity of money , for the more money wo
manufacture in tills country the more wo
will have for circulation , oven though wo
make It , Hko the miller makes Hour , on
the shares ; and besides , there will bo n
stability In the Increase of the circulating
medium if wo have free coinage which wo
cannot have if wo plnco n limit upon the
supply , thereby casting doubt upon the face
of the act as to whether it is just the proper
thing , and announcing that it Is riskv bust-
ness , but wo are willing to try It to a certain
extent. "
ThU Is what the senator said who advo
cates limited coiimga and u bullion redemp
tion feature ;
"Free coinage will bo a menace to our finan
cial system , for the reason that this will bo-
coma the dumping ground forjffio surulus sli
ver of ttto world , where abbuUJJ ! , ccnta worth
I of silver bullion can bo broughttftnd exchanged

W smvfiTOV , Juno 25. In the senatn today
the senate bill to pro vent transportation in

adversely.
Mr. Call rose to address the senate on the
subject of resolutions heretofore offered by
him ( and reported back adversely from ttio
committee on foreign relations ) ono author

the Spanish government for tlio purpose of
inducing that government to consent to the
establishment of a free and independent rq-
[ lublio In ttio island of Cuba , mid the ether
In relation to Gornnn ownership of a largo
proportion of the bonded debt of Cuba.
When the clerk was reading tlio second
resolution Mr. Sherman rose and moved that
the doors bo closed ,
Mr. Edmunds seconded the motion nnd the
vice president directed tbo galleries cleared
and the doors closed.
Mr. Call , being thus unexpectedly cut off
in his desire to make a speech before the
public , said that ho would withdraw the roa-
alutlon , but the order to close the doors was
insisted upon by Messrs. Sherman and Ed
munds and was carried into execution.
The doors wcro reopened tit 1 ; 30 and the
senate took up the house bill for the admis
sion of Wyoming to the union as n state.
Tlio bill was temporarily laid usldo nnd Mr.
Ingulls offered a resolution instructing the
committee on privilege * and elections to in
quire into the publication iu the Record today
of a personal explanation by Mr. Call and ro-
poit whether It U in accordance with the

The resolution went over with yctlor
nnd the senate proceeded with the * ilnn

territories bclngread. * *
Mr. Vest opposed the bill , IIo hue Mu
past of states being admitted with snt > p <

Wyoming , ho said , hns n population o
less than sixty thousand , scattered ovO. an
Immense area. Ho would not vote for the
admission of Wyoming with Its present con *
Mitution , permitting woman suffrage.
Woman sufti-ago was antagonistic to tiia
spirit and institutions of tlio Amor-
lean people. Ho deplored the extension ol
fcuffrugoto colored men In the south and said
no Intellgent man today would glvo it te
them. Ho himself would no moro give them
the right of suffrage than ho would glvo n
deadly weapon to n child. Certainly he
would not glvo it to colored women , who
were far mnro Impulsive nud thoughtless
than men. Another objection Mr. Vest made
to the constitution of Wyoming was that it
gave the light of holding property to aliens.
Mr. Phut said Wyoming bad us good n tight
to admission as nny territory over admitted.
Ho was surprised that gentlemen so devoted
to "homo rule" should not bo willing to allow
n territory to decide woman suffrage for it
self. Ho believed tlio population of Wyoming
nearer 125,000 than 100,000. In conclusion.
Mr. Pratt spoke of tlio great resources 01
Wyoming und said that with Irrigation it
could support 10,000,000 people.
At the close of Mr. Pnitt's remarks ho
made an effort to have a vote taken on the
bill , but Mr. Vest objected nnd moved nu
mcndment and the senate adjourned.

WASIIIXOTO.V , Juno 25. The text of the
tariff bill , together with the changes recom
mended by tlio senate finance committee nud
explanations thereof , wcro furnished today
to the senate. The committee states that the
changes made from specific to ndvalorcm
rates and vice versa were for the purpose of
simplifying and expediting the collection of
duties. The increases were made because
they were believed to bo no moro than neces
sary to protect domestic industry. Tlio rea
son given for a reduction In most Instances
was that the new rate was believed to afford
hufllcicnt protection. The committee believes
that lead contained in silver ore should not bo
admitted for le--s than lend in any other metal ,
hence a duty of l' cents per pound. A.s to
sugar the committco says : "Sugar up to No.
Ill Dutch standard was placed upon the free
list as n matter of wise public policy mid a
bounty provided in order to encourage domes
tic production , " The committee says as to
wool : "Tlio demand from the representative
wool growers of the country that rates upon

with the Illinois Central stilkers mid ready
to go out at iijinomcnt's notice.
Telegraphic advices from points in
ttiis state , Wisconsin and Iowa Indicate
that the tie up on tlio Illinois Central
is not as complete outside of Chicago as was
generally supposed. While most of the
branch lines seem to bo at a Htnudstlll , ad
vices are to the effect that the main stem ,
which traverses the state from Uiiluth to
Cairo , is still in operation , nnd that the
lines in Wisconsin and Iowa have not
so far been affected. The fact is that the
chief ofllccr of the united railway employes ,
who nlono has authority to order a .strike ,
has taken no action In the in liter. Yester
day's action of the strikers , declaring a tie-
up on all the lines under the management of
Division Superintendent Itnsscll , was taken
without authority in tlio hope that tlio chief
of tlio order would approve it as nn accom
plished fact.
A conference was held between the strikers
nnd olllciiils of the road today , but as far as
known practically nothing resulted except n
heated wrangle. The divisions of the road
now repotted completely tied up are tlioso
from Chicago to Centralia , 111. Chicago to
Freeport , 111. , and Chicago to Unbuquo , la.
As result of the the
a tie-up express -

There is danger that unless tlio strike is

Tim Big Four road , which tins a trackago
nirangement with the Illinois Central ,
finding itself unable to got freight into ,
the city , made an arrangement with the
Chicago it Kastein Illinois. The strikers ,
suspecting that the Illinois Central was also
using the Eastern Illinois , sent word to the
employes of that line not to handle Illinois

with wilh a vengeance , tno Eastern Illinois
men refusing to handle nny moro Big Four

THEY ADOPTED A NEW CREED,
Prohibition no Longer a Test of Republican
Party reality in Iowa
VICTORY FOR THE CONSERVATIVES:
The "Bottled Policy" Blunder of Last
Vein * Condemned by the Sioux
City Convention The
New Platform.
Sioux CITY, In., June 25. (Special Telegraph to THE BEE): The republican convention today was the most harmonious and enthusiastic that has been held for years. There were prognostications of discord and faction, and there seemed to be many rocks upon which it might strike, but all such anticipations are utterly disappointed by the action of the convention. The chief interest of the convention was not in the ticket, although there was a large field of candidates for the various nominations and a spirited contest among them. The contests, however, were friendly, and the ticket as it is made up is composed of fairly representative men, and judiciously distributed as to locality. All the nominations were made unanimous, not merely as a matter of form, but as the reflection of a genuine spirit of harmony.
The interest in the convention, as was expected, centered chiefly in the temperance issue. The reverse sustained by the party in last year's election in the election of a democratic governor brought again to the front the element of the party which all along has protested more or less vigorously against the prohibitory policy. This element began soon after the election a movement for the purpose of modifying the declared position of the party. While the legislature was in session the anti-prohibitionists held a largely attended convention in DES Moines, and the president of the organization, H.S. Fairall, of Iowa City, was charged with the work of organizing the force for this convention. The counties in which are located the larger cities and some of the rural counties sent strong anti-prohibition delegations to the convention, and they came upon the ground early. At the same time the more radical prohibition element took alarm immediately after the call for the convention. The state temperance alliance issued a proclamation, calling upon its members to be on their guard and to be active at the primaries. It was from these conflicting factions that embarrasment was feared, and in fact predicted.
The two factions last night held separate and largely attended caucuses. About two hundred delegates joined in the anti-prohibition caucus. The caucus adopted a carefully prepared program of work and appointed as a strong committee to appear before the committee on resolutions and to protest against a prohibitory plank the following named gentlemen: H.S. Fairall, J.C. Davis, Colonel D.E. Lyon, Major William G, Thompson, Dr. J.A. Riggen, J.A. Lecens, Captain J.O'Keefe, T.J. Evans, W.H. Forbey, Colonel George A Clark, Prince Seaman, A.W. Erwin, and F.W. Smith. These are all leading republicans and represent every section of the state. The prohibition caucus last night was even more largely attended. It adopted resolutions, the essential one being as follows:
"Resolved, That we unflinchingly stand for the prohibitory statute of Iowa, passed in obedience to the expressed will of the people and for its complete enforcement."
J.H. Lute, a noted prohibition leader, was designated to present the resolutions to the platform committee. The contest to control the platform committee was an earnest one. The outright anti-prohibitionists secured only two among the eleven members of the committee, being these from the Second and Third congressional districts. But a considerable number of the members were conservative republicans.
The debate in the platform committee was long and earnest, and for a time it looked as if no compromise was possible. But a final compromise, however, was reached. The anti-prohibitionists accepted the declaration that the party makes no new test of fealty, while the prohibitionists are content with the declaration against a compromise with the saloon and the platform was unanimously reported by the committee and adopted by the convention.
There was a powerful sentiment in the convention in favor of a declaration for unlimited silver coinage. The committee was plied with telegrams and letters from Washington protesting against such a declaration. Among other communications on this subject was one from Speaker Reed. There were telegrams from every Iowa congressman. The platform committee was strongly inclined to unlimited silver coinage, and the convention beyond question would have adopted it, but the plank as finished declared only for free coinage of the product of American mines.
There was equal anxiety in Washington as to the tariff plank, but the committee framed an independent statement. The presiding officer, the venerable ex-Senator George G Wright of DES Moines, an old-time republican war horse, added dignity to the convention and added greatly to the dispatch of business. There was also a very large attendance of the older leaders of Iowa republicanism, many of whom came as quiet spectators and not as delegates.
The Convention.
Sioux CITY, In., June 25. The republican state convention was called to order at 11 o'clock this morning by Chairman Pray of the state central committee. S.M. Weaver of Iowa Falls, who was elected temporary chairman, made an address of some length eulogizing the work of the party and predicting success at the next election. The membership of the committee on resolutions was then announced.
At the afternoon session the report of the committee was received and adopted.
Judge George G. Wright of Polk was made permanent chairman, H.L. Buyers of Lucas county secretary, and W.H. Berry of Warren county auditing clerk.
The shipbuilding state central committee was framed: First district, C.M. Jackson, Jones; Second, J.M. Kombler, Muscatine; Third, C.W. Mullen, Breckenridge; Fourth, J.C. Blythe, Cerro Gordo; Fifth, George A. Lincoln, Linn; Sixth, B.W. Preston, nominated for secretary of state on the second end ballot, getting 471 votes to four for Byers, and 21 for Church.
The platform committee then reported as follows:
"That we, the members of this convention, acknowledging the substantial standing of the national republican party, and affirming our devotion to the principles of the national republican party, and denying any other test of fidelity to the national republican party of town, voluntarily condemn the imprudent and patriotic ministration of President Hayes, with the historic commendation of the movement for silver and better relations, both business and political, unions all American.
We emphatically decline our adherence to the principle of protection to American industry as enunciated wisely in view of the interest of all; that discriminating monopolies may be tolerated, but never in behalf of monopolies against the masses; that in this respect we hold that all taxation should be direct, whether it concerns the maintenance of government or the support of local or state government, whether it concerns domestic manufacturing or the mine, by the national government, by the state, or by sub-divisions of local government; whether it concerns foreign or domestic; that in such expansion of the currency may be necessary to maintain stability in population and trade and to avoid contraction resulting from violent withdrawal of national bank circulation, to this end we favor such legislation as will utilize as money the free silver product of our mines, and we favor such laws as will aid in the ultimate unrestricted use of both precious metals as money.
The republican party of this state is in favor of promoting in every fair and honorable way the industrial interests of the people of this state. We believe that the business interests of the people are interchangeable and mutual, and that injustice can stand on one class must sooner or later work to the injury of all classes. Particularly do we believe that as the (true) industry represented by the farm stands at the head of Iowa industries, and that the faithful protection of that object is a prime obligation upon those who make and administer our laws."
Who contends that the election of this State, irrespective of party relationship, upon the measure of success obtained in the contest in this state in behalf of just and equal control of railway corporations doing business in this state, and we appeal to the people to see to it that there is no recession in the just policy of the state in this minimization. We believe that the efforts to nullify the Interstate commerce law should be resisted, to the end that national protection and state protection may alike be ensured to all communities and among all classes.
The Republicans of Iowa offer their sympathy to the producers of the South who seek now for redress from the industrial bondage of the grinding monopolies of the states of that section, protected and promoted by all the power of the original democratic party of those states. We believe that in the breaking up of those systems under which industrial freedom is impossible, and which rob and persecute the poor, lies the one great hope of freedom, elections, and popular government, social peace, and general prosperity in the Southern states. Recognizing revolt, in the South in behalf of liberty and justice, popular government and popular rights, it is a matter of minor concern in what name the battles are fought and won. We welcome the first growth and spread of power of Republican principles.
We cordially approve the purpose of Republicans in Congress to amend and improve the pension laws as to make further and more affable pension provisions for union soldiers, their widows, patents, and orphans, and widows, and wistfully believe the day is not far distant when a general service pension law should and will be passed.
We express our abhorrence of all trusts and trade conspiracies of every kind intended to destroy competition and create and perpetuate monopolies, and call for the enactment and enforcement of both federal and state laws to completely exterminate such iniquitous and dangerous combinations, and to prevent their further organization.
We declare against a compromise with the saloon and stand by the people of this state in their hostility to its existence, spread, and power. We favor such legislation on the part of Congress as shall protect the police power of the states in their efforts to regulate, confine, or prohibit the public bar, and for the upproval of the work and removal of those elements can of this state in this incursion of temperance, involving the public peace and the subinity of good government, we individually condemn consistently to the electors of Iowa.
We conclude the people of Iowa upon the prosperity that has attended the past and upon the confidence and courage with which the state awaits the future.
The platform was adopted.
J. A. Lyons was nominated for auditor, receiving 519 votes, 310 being cast for McCarthy and 107 for Kyle.
General B. A. Breeson of Marshalltown was then nominated for treasurer by acclamation.
Judge J. M. Hothrock was nominated for the supreme bench over N. M. Pusey of Pottawattamie.
Hon. John Y. Stone was re-nominated for attorney general by acclamation.
O. B. Bray was re-nominated for clerk of the supreme court on the second ballot
N. B. Lyman of Polk was nominated for reporter of the supreme court.
J. W. Lake of Franklin county was nominated for railroad commissioner after a stiff fight and over a heavy opposition.
Well Received by the Resuits.
Sioux City, la., June 25. [Special Telegram to The Bee.] H. S. Fairall, editor of the Iowa City Republican and president of the state anti-prohibition republican association, in an interview tonight said: "We feel that we have achieved a great victory and are well pleased with the platform. Prohibition has not been and will not be again declared a test of party fealty. The national platform is declared to be the only party creed. The republican party can no longer be charged with being a prohibition party."
Second Day of the Tournament.
PIATTSVILLE, Neb., June 25. [Special to The Bee.] The second day of the tournament is but a repetition of the first in every respect but races. At an early hour this morning crowds began to congregate on the streets to witness the parade.
At 7 a. m. a special train over the Burlington brought in the Omaha Veterans' association and the Union Pacific fire department with their friends and two bands. They were escorted up the street to a hall, where they were welcomed by the local firemen, and as the veterans marched up the streets everyone remarked at their fine appearance.
The parade formed at 9 a. m. and marched through the principal streets in the following order:
Ancient Order of Hibernians' band of Omaha, Omaha Veteran firemen, W. H. Burston running team of Crete, Ashland running team, Juvenile hook and ladder, city band, Neville running team of Plattsmouth, Corcorans of Crete, P. E. White hook team, N. M. Hickey hose team, B. & M. band, B. & M. running team of Plattsmouth, Alexander of Grand Island, local hook and ladder team, and Nebraska City running team.
After the parade the presentation of the banner to be given to the finest looking and most uniformed company took place. It was awarded to the Omaha veterans.
At the races in the afternoon the state hose race for the champion cart was with six entries. Their time was: B. & M. of Plattsmouth 45; Wide Awake of Kearney, 1:15; Alexander of Grand Island, 1:25; Corcorans of York, 1:24; Amorys, 1:45; Neville of Plattsmouth, no time.
The Alexanders had a bad coupling and the Judges took the time under advisement until this evening, when they agreed to allow them to run over. The hose broke on the Neville cart after making a run of thirty-five seconds ends; the board of control said it was out of the question to give them another trial, but as no protests had been entered and a precedent had been made at Kearney where the Fremont hose cart broke down and they got another trial, it was decided to give them the same chance. If they make the run they did today the Plattsmouth team will have the cart.
The state hook and ladder race took place at 3:30 with only two entries. Nebraska City took the championship belt, their time being 1:5 seconds. The Plattsmouth team made a good run, but as their ladder man had been injured in the green race the day before by falling from the ladder while in the air the poor man could not make the time. The Given hose race was also undecided because the coupling broke at the scratch after they had made a good run. They will run tomorrow.
Tomorrow in the free-for-all race it is expected that the record will be broken, as all teams here have professional men, and a few teams from Iowa are expected to take part in it and good races may be looked for.
Tomorrow's program is:
10 a. m.- Pompier corps contest, purse $75; first prize, $50; second prize, $25.
11 a. m. - Grand free for all water test, handsome silver hogshead
1:30 p. m., Hose race, free for all, purse $100; first prize, $30; second prize, $100.
3:45 p. m., Hook and ladder race, free for all, purse $100; first prize, $60; second prize, $100.
5 p. m., Couplers' contest to rules: prize, two $5 badges.

AVAST! INDEPENDENT, D. C., June 20. )
Free and unlimited coinage has for the second time failed in the house of representatives. The majority against It this afternoon was seventeen. The proposition came up in the form of a motion to non-concur in the senate's amendments to the Wilson bill, the principle of which was free coinage. A few minutes before a vote was taken it was feared by many who conscientiously believed that it would be injurious to the best interests of the country to have free and unlimited coinage that the motion to non-concur would fall, as many democrats were exerting themselves with great vehemence to get all of their members in line and vote solidly against, the committee's proposition. It was argued by Mr. Mills and other democrats that this would be a good opportunity for the democrats to make a political point that the president would veto a free coinage bill, and, knowing this, the monopolists from the east would be justified in voting for free coinage against the wishes of their constituents because they ran no risk of making it possible for the proposition to become a law. The limited coinage democrats would not be beguiled and drawn into such a scheme, and so they voted for non-concurrence in the senate's amendments. About an equal number of republicans voted against non-concurrence, so that as far as partisan views were concerned the break of the anti-free coinage democrats was but a stand-off to the republicans who voted for free coinage. There was the largest vote cast upon this proposition that has been developed for some weeks, 287 out of the 330 members being recorded as voting. There was a very perceptible agitation on both sides of the house as the roll was being called upon the first amendment for free coinage.
A number of senators from both sides of the chamber were on the floor of the house urging their friends to stand to their convictions. There was but one aye and any vote taken--that upon the question of concurrence in the senate's amendment for free coinage. The other votes were viva voice, as it became apparent that the anti-free coinage men had a large majority of seventeen.
The free coinage men in both houses have given up the contest. It is conceded that the conference committee will make to a bill providing for the coinage of 54,500,000 - 3,500,000 ounces of silver bullion monthly, and that the certificates issued for the purchase of the bullion will be made a full legal tender for public and private debts. This is accepted by nearly all the free coinage men as satisfactory, and it is believed that it will not only satisfy the silver producing states, but give the most general satisfaction to liberal silver men in every section of the country. It will set at rest all fears which would constantly be entertained under a free coinage act of having a surplus of foreign silver coinage substituted for American money which would take the place of our gold and eventually drain the United States of one of its principal metal bases of finances.
Barring very unexpected changes, there will be no more excitement over the silver question in Washington and within a few days a silver bill will become a law.
Nebraska's three representatives voted solidly, as they have on several former occasions in this session, for free coinage and for the senate amendment providing for a full legal tender clause in the bill.
SOUTH DAKOTA KICKS OVER THE CHEYENNES.
Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota, who is a member of the senate committee on Indian affairs, says the bloodthirsty Cheyenne on Tongue River and other sections of Montana will not be shipped down into his state. He says the appropriation placed in the Indian bill in the house at the request of Representative Cater, providing for the transfer of the Cheyennes from Montana to the Sioux reservation in South Dakota, will be struck out in the senate because they are not wanted in his state. Senator Pettigrew says that he would prefer and thinks it would be much easier to have the 500 Cheyennes in South Dakota transferred to Montana than to have the 200 Cheyennes in the latter state sent down into the former.
He has given notice to the Montana men that they need not expect to get rid of their stealing and murderous Cheyennes, as they are termed, if they expect to send them to South Dakota, and Senator Pettigrew is in a position to fulfill his promises. Senator Pettigrew says further that he does not see how the Cheyennes of Montana could be evangelized any better in South Dakota than in Montana, or why it could be expected that the climate in his state could have any more of a moral influence upon the savages than the salubrious atmosphere of Montana.
A BREAKFAST JOKE.
A practical joke was perpetrated by Senator Edmunds upon Senator Call today. The latter is the most nearly incessant talker in the upper branch of congress and never fails to embrace an opportunity to make up space in the Congressional Record. This afternoon he opened himself and thought he would make some munitions to be used in his approaching preaching campaign by advocating an independent form of government for the island of Cuba. Senator Edmunds immediately arose and said that inasmuch as the senator from Florida desired to speak upon international comity and affairs which properly belonged to an executive session of the senate, the doors should be closed. His suggestion was adopted and the speech of Senator Call will, of course, not appear in the Record, and of course cannot be given to the public.
Senator Call did not appear to enjoy the hot weather joke and it is said the speech which he intended to be of several hours' length occupied but a few minutes behind the closed doors, where the temperature was almost 100. This blow came upon the heels of a severe "scutching" at the hands of Senator Ingalls and others for a gross breach of the privileges of the senate. Mr. Call published in the Record today a statement intended to show that he had done more than everybody else in the senate. It was a comparison of the number of bills gotten through by each senator and was full of misrepresentations. One by one the senators got up and denounced the publication as a tissue of falsehoods. Verily Senator Call is having a hard row to hoe towards re-election.
ARE THERE TWO KINDS OF COINAGE?
I asked an ultra free coinage advocate and a determined limited coinage man in the Senate to tell me, in a sentence each, if possible, why the positions they occupied in the present contest were the most tenable. The free coinage senator said:
"The mobile man who takes a position against the free admission of raw material with which to make money itself cannot be regarded as an advocate of relief from the scarcity of money, for the more money we manufacture in this country, the more we will have for circulation, even though we make it, like the miller makes flour, on the shares; and besides, there will be stability in the increase of the circulating medium if we have free coinage, which we cannot have if we place a limit upon the supply, thereby casting doubt upon the face of the act as to whether it is just the proper thing, and announcing that it is risky business, but we are willing to try it to a certain extent."
This is what the senator said who advocates limited coinage and a bullion redemption feature:
"Free coinage will be a menace to our financial system, for the reason that this will become the dumping ground for the surplus silver of the world, where abundant silver, cents worth of silver bullion can be brought and exchanged for notes contrary to coin worth the world over 10 cents and gold, and the redemption day for all these notes will hang like a sword over the country and throw us into financial ruin the first time we are threatened with war or put into a hole by a corner which may easily be formed by old world combinations."
ADJUSTMENT OF POSTMASTER SALARIES.

MISSOURIANEOUS
Representative Dorsey was before the house committee on public buildings and grounds today and presented an argument in favor of the Norfolk public building bill. It was very difficult to get members to take favorable action upon this bill, owing to the feeling that there have already been more public buildings provided for than the surplus of the government will warrant. The committee finally agreed to report a bill appropriating $10,000, which will now go upon the calendar of the house, and there is very little doubt that it will be finally adopted before this session closes.
Assistant Secretary Chandler has directed that the land commissioner grant Daniel B.

SIOUR'S JUDGEMENT.
The Woman Who Enticed Him to His Death Makes a Confession.
OTTUMWA, IOWA, June 25. [Special Telegram to The Bank.] The Ford woman, who enticed David Moore to his death, was made a full confession. She states that she had an appointment with Moore for 8 o'clock Monday evening, and that her husband, a man named O'Brien, and O'Brien's mistress, Minnie Winterling, accompanied her to the place of meeting at the south end of the Illinois river bridge.
Then Ford went ahead and she and Moore, followed by O'Brien and the Winterling woman, went into the park. When she and Moore were alone, Ford, as prearranged, rushed out and demanded blackmail. Moore refused to pay, and in a scuffle which followed was gaining the mastery, when O'Brien rushed upon him and struck him a terrible blow with a coupling pin, felling him like an ox. O'Brien and Ford pounded his head to a pulp and then robbed him of his diamonds and watch and $1,000 in bills, looking $140 not in his purse. All of the suspects are in jail, having been captured before 10 o'clock last night.
Later: The Winterling woman, one of the serious in the Moore case, has confessed. Her confession, added to that of Mrs. Ford; further clears up the terrible details of the crime. It now appears that a third man, unknown to the women, took an active part in the murder. He is still at large, though the police have clues which will lead to his capture before morning.
NATIONAL WORLD'S FAIR COMMISSIONERS
Gather at the Pacific Hotel.
CHICAGO, June 21. [Special Telegram to The Bank.] Oregon, Minnesota, Florida, and Vermont shook hands at the Pacific hotel when the national world's fair commissioners from those states met this morning.
"It's a good omen," said one of the commissioners who witnessed the greetings, "it's an omen that sectionalism will be forgotten and that all parts of the country are going to unite in making the Columbian exposition a success such as the world has never seen."
The national commission has established headquarters in the Pacific hotel. The preliminary meeting was held at 8 o'clock tonight. At this meeting there was nothing more than an informal discussion of plans. The regular meeting is called for tomorrow morning.
At this meeting the secretary will be elected and the permanent organization effected. There are about as many candidates for the position of secretary as there are commissioners. Most of the states have men whom they would like to see get the place.
The choice, however, will probably fall upon either Commissioner Dickinson of Texas or Benjamin Butterworth of Ohio. The former has established headquarters at the hotel and is making an active canvass for the place. Every commissioner is buttonholed as soon as he arrives and his vote is sought.
Mr. Butterworth's friends are also active in his behalf and it is a wary commissioner who can escape without committing himself to either one or the other.
EXPERT THEIVE GANG
A 5-nugget at Laramie Cracked by Men Who Know Their Shrewdness.
Laramie, Wyo., June 21. [Special Telegram to The Bank.] The safe in John Hempfner's saloon, at the Laramie headquarters of the Denver brewing company, was cracked by burglars at an early hour this morning. Two hundred dollars and notes representing $500 were taken. There is no clue to the burglars, who evidently expected to find in the safe a large amount, collected for the brewing company. The work showed that the men were probably experts at safe cracking.
For nearly ten years a dense smoke has been hovering over Bald Mountain in the Medicine Bow range south of Laramie. It was learned that a disastrous timber fire is in progress and that hourly 700 acres have already been burned over. It is supposed that the fire was started through the carelessness of persons who were camping out.
Henry Peterson, a painter employed in the Union Pacific shops here, has been missing for live weeks and his whereabouts are a mystery. Shortly before he left, he was observed to act strangely and his friends believe that he may have become insane and wandered off. He disappeared immediately after receiving his month's salary.

Hand Offering.
WASHINGTON, June 25. Special Telegram: The House Votes Against the Administration's Amendments to the Silver Bill, ONE BALLOT SETTLES THE BUSINESS, Makes an Unparliamentary Mark in the Congressional Debate to Call, is Called to Order, and Settles It.
June 25. In the house today, the conference report on the naval appropriation bill was presented. The previous question was then ordered and the conference report adopted.
Mr. Conger then moved that the debate on the silver bill be extended to 8 o'clock, at which time voting shall begin. His motion was agreed to and Mr. Morse of Massachusetts took the floor in support of the house bill and in opposition to the senate bill.
The debate was continued at great length by Messrs. Taylor of Illinois, Peters of Kansas, Cutchconn of Michigan, Dainell of Minnesota, Bayne of Pennsylvania, Williams of Ohio, and others.
Mr. Williams charged that the president had sent men here threatening a veto if a free coinage bill was passed. He did not propose to go to the president and get down on his knees and ask what kind of silver legislation should be passed.
Mr. McKinley, in closing the debate, said he wanted the use of both metals to continue and opposed the senate amendments. He wanted the metals to stand side by side, equal in purchasing power and legal tender quality.
The gentlemen who favored the senate amendments wanted silver to do all of the work. Whatever we had for money in this country must be equal in purchasing power and legal tender quality, whether gold, paper dollars, or silver dollars, each redeemable in the other and each exchangeable for the other and each of equal value.
The hour having arrived, Mr. Conger moved that the voting begin.
Mr. Bland moved that the house concur in the senate amendments.
Mr. Springer moved that separate votes be had on each section, and the first vote taken was on the proposition to concur in the first section of the senate bill, providing for the free coinage of silver, the coins to be full legal tender, in place of the first section of the house bill, providing for the coinage of $1,500,000 worth of silver per month.
The motion to concur in the substitute proposed by the senate for the first section of the house bill was defeated yeas, 103; nays, 15.
The following republicans voted with the democrats in favor of the free coinage amendment: Bartine, Carter, Council, Doleben, Featherstone, Flood, Ford, Hermann, Kelley, Laws, Morrow, Prums, Peters, Post, Smith of Illinois, Townsley of Colorado, Turner of Kansas, Williams of Ohio, Dorsey, Anderson of Kansas, Owen of Indiana, Wade, Morrill.
The following democrats voted with the republicans to non-concur: Andrew, Buckalew, Campbell, Clancy, Covert, Dunnphy, Dargan, Howell, Manish, McAdoo, Macfeller, O'Neill of Massachusetts, Quinn, Phelps, McCormick, and Morgan, Nute and McCarthy, T.M. Brown and Outhwaite, Pickler and Stahlnecker, Walker of Massachusetts, and Clune, Osborne and Hayes, Wheeler of Michigan, Barwig, Dallen, and Martin of Texas, Lane and Hooker, J.D. Taylor and Price, Thompson and Senoy, Rockwell and Rogers, Clark of Wisconsin, and Walker of Missouri, Cooper of Ohio, and Dibble, Buchanon of New Jersey, and Lawlor, Winslow and Briggs, Grosvenor and Yoeler.
The absentees were: Fitch of New York, Aligh of Pennsylvania, Childswell of Ohio.
The announcement of the vote was received with cheers on the republican side.
Mr. Springer then withdrew his request for a separate vote on each section and the house then, by a rising vote of 110 to 105, non-concurred in all the remaining senate amendments.
The house then voted that a conference be asked with the senate on the bill.
Mr. Hitt of Illinois presented the conference report on the diplomatic appropriation bill and it was agreed to.
Mr. Cannon, from the committee on rules, reported back the substitute resolution introduced by Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts, setting apart forty days of the present week for consideration of the constitutional election bill. The substitute provides that immediately after the passage of the silver bill the house proceed to consider the election bill until July 2, at 8 o'clock, when the previous question shall be considered as ordered. This is not to interfere with the general appropriation bills.
Mr. Springer moved to adjourn and Mr. Fulop shouted, "This is a bill to revolutionize the government."
It was finally agreed to allow forty minutes debate on the resolution, with the understanding that the previous question should be considered as ordered, and Mr. Springer withdrew his motion to adjourn.
Messrs. McMillan and Blount vigorously attacked the bill, and from this time on there was great confusion on the floor.
Messrs. Cannon and O'Neill of Indiana engaged in a colloquy somewhat personal and this added so much to the already existing disorder that the sergeant-at-arms came forward with his mace of office and restored order.
Mr. Springer moved to table the resolution.
On a yes and no vote this was lost yeas, 110, nays, 111, Colonel of Louisiana being the only republican who voted with the democrats.
The resolution was then adopted.
After arranging to meet at 1 o'clock for the six days during which the debate is to continue, the house adjourned.
Senate.
WASHINGTON, June 25. In the senate today, the senate bill to prevent transportation in bond of merchandise between the United States and Mexico and to restore that right wherever zona libre is abolished was reported adversely.
Mr. Call rose to address the senate on the subject of resolutions heretofore offered by him (and reported back adversely from the committee on foreign relations) one authorizing the president to open negotiations with the Spanish government for the purpose of inducing that government to consent to the establishment of a free and independent republic in the island of Cuba, and the other in relation to German ownership of a large proportion of the bonded debt of Cuba.
When the clerk was reading the second resolution, Mr. Sherman rose and moved that the doors be closed.
Mr. Edmunds seconded the motion and the vice president directed the galleries to be cleared and the doors closed.
Mr. Call, being thus unexpectedly cut off in his desire to make a speech before the public, said that he would withdraw the resolution, but the order to close the doors was insisted upon by Messrs. Sherman and Edmunds and was carried into execution.
The doors were reopened at 1:30 and the senate took up the house bill for the admission of Wyoming to the union as a state.
The bill was temporarily laid aside and Mr. Ingalls offered a resolution instructing the committee on privileges and elections to inquire into the publication in the Record today of a personal explanation by Mr. Call and report whether it is in accordance with the rules, etc.
To a sharp suit in the course of which Mr. Inga's charged me will have deliberately falsified fact word, he was called to order and this, making it "charged the record." The resolution went over with yet another vote and the senate proceeded with the final admission bill, the report of the committee on territories being read. Mr. Vest opposed the bill, he has a past of states being admitted with stipulations because of some sectional or exigencies. But no such existed Wyoming, he said, has a population of less than sixty thousand, scattered over an immense area. He would not vote for the admission of Wyoming with its present constitution, permitting woman suffrage. Woman suffrage was antagonistic to the spirit and institutions of the American people. He deplored the extension of suffrage to colored men in the south and said no intelligent man today would give it to them. He himself would no more give them the right of suffrage than he would give a deadly weapon to a child. Certainly he would not give it to colored women, who were far more impulsive and thoughtless than men. Another objection Mr. Vest made to the constitution of Wyoming was that it gave the right of holding property to aliens. Mr. Pratt said Wyoming had us good a right to admission as any territory over admitted. He was surprised that gentlemen so devoted to "home rule" should not be willing to allow a territory to decide woman suffrage for itself. He believed the population of Wyoming nearer 125,000 than 100,000. In conclusion, Mr. Pratt spoke of the great resources of Wyoming and said that with irrigation it could support 10,000,000 people.
The changes recommended by the Senate Finance Committee were furnished today to the Senate. The committee states that the changes made from specific to ad valorem rates and vice versa were for the purpose of simplifying and expediting the collection of duties. The increases were made because they were believed to be no more than necessary to protect domestic industry. The reason given for a reduction in most instances was that the new rate was believed to afford sufficient protection. The committee believes that lead contained in silver ore should not be admitted for less than lead in any other metal, hence a duty of 5 cents per pound. As to sugar, the committee says: "Sugar up to 96 Dutch standard was placed upon the free list as a matter of wise public policy and a bounty provided in order to encourage domestic production," The committee says as to wool: "The demand from the representative wool growers of the country that rates upon wool should be largely increased has led the committee to recommend the adoption of the new classification held suggested, which, it is hoped, will result in a uniform and honest classification of wool. The increase of rates for manufacturing wool has been made necessary for this increase in wool rates."
The minority report in opposition to the federal election bill denounces federal interference in state elections, and says one election under the provisions of the bill will, if fully applied, cost the taxpayer of the country $11,000,000. The minority makes particular objection to a change in the number of precinct supervisors. The report also makes a strong objection to the provision of the bill constituting the final returns of elections made "by a district board of commissioners to the clerk of the house prima facie evidence of election results. It says the bill is plainly unconstitutional because the states have not, failed to pass laws for the representation of their people in congress nor made laws hostile to such representation and to the government of the United States in connection therewith.
Forest fires are raging in the San Jose and San Juan ranges in the southern portion of the state and also in the neighborhood of Salem. Word has been received at Boulder that the mills and works at the Plumber and Boston mines have been destroyed by forest fires and over two thousand acres of valuable timber also burned. The loss will be large but cannot now be estimated. Telegraphic reports state that a great portion of the Sangre de Cristo range, in Colorado and New Mexico, is in flames. A special from Española, N.M., says the valley is obscured by smoke from the burning mountains. The fire extends over some twenty miles up and down the Santa Fe range. The loss will be great.
A special from Palmer Lake, Colo., says the forest fire which has been burning in the Cook Creek district the last few days has so far destroyed 100 acres of young timber. The most serious fire is near Boulder, Colo. No additional news has been received from there today.
The committee appointed by the wholesale liquor dealers' association to confer with the distillers and cattle feeders reported this afternoon that the trust declined to rescind the rebate and made a quasi promise about the price of spirits conditioned upon contracts for a certain period. In regard to the demand that the trust shall sell to wholesale liquor dealers only, President Gregory informed the committee that such instructions had already been issued to agents. After hearing the report, a motion was adopted that the wholesale dealers proceed immediately to build distilleries on the cooperative plan and raise subscriptions for that purpose.
Henry M. Stanley and his guide, Miss Tennant, attended commemoration day exercises at Oxford university today. The undergraduates gave Mr. Stanley a most uproarious reception. They cheered and chuffed him, and when he was formally " voted Good Fellow" presented, they sang a jolly follow, following up the song with more cheers for the explorer and finishing with "one more for the bride."
The degree of doctor of civil law was conferred upon Professor C. Godwin of Harvard university and upon Stanley.
Louis Mayor of Louis Mayor Co., wholesale clothier, had disappeared, leaving debts, it is said, amounting to about $78,000. Fred Lewis, a friend of his from New York, recently opened a retail store and began giving large orders. The two firms kept on buying until their outstanding paper in town amounted to between $6,000,000 and $7,000,000. The most of this falls due July 1. Louis has disappeared also and it is thought both are in the United States. A movement is on foot by their creditors to have them brought back.

IT COULD BECOME GENERAL,
The Illinois Control Strike Liable to Spread to Other Bonds.
A THREATENING STATE OF AFFAIRS,
Employers of the Illinois Central Sympathize
As the Strikers, Headed
to Go Out at a Moment's Notice
Cincinnati, June 2. From indications tonight, it is feared that before noon tomorrow every railroad entering Chicago will be tied up and the entire carrying trade of the city will be suspended.
No final decision was reached at the conference of Illinois Central officers and employees this morning. It will be rendered tomorrow at 10 o'clock, and on it depends the whole issue.
The chairman of the grievance committee is responsible for the statement that if an agreement is not reached, the brotherhood of switchmen will call out the men on the other roads. These men are entirely in sympathy with the Illinois Central strikers and ready to go out at a moment's notice.
Telegraphic advices from points in this state, Wisconsin, and Iowa indicate that the tie-up on the Illinois Central is not as complete outside of Chicago as was generally supposed. While most of the branch lines seem to be at a standstill, advices are to the effect that the main stem, which traverses the state from Chicago to Cairo, is still in operation, and that the lines in Wisconsin and Iowa have not so far been affected. The fact is that the chief officer of the united railway employees, who alone has authority to order a strike, has taken no action in the interim. Yesterday's action of the strikers, declaring a tie-up on all the lines under the management of Division Superintendent Rassell, was taken without authority in the hope that the chief of the order would approve it as an accomplished fact.
A conference was held between the strikers and officials of the road today, but as far as known, practically nothing resulted except a heated wrangle. The divisions of the road now reported completely tied up are those from Chicago to Centralia, Ill.; Chicago to Freeport, Ill., and Chicago to Dubuque, Iowa. As a result, express companies in this city are refusing service for points on the Illinois Central. About $1500 worth of perishable freight is stacked at Joliet, 60 miles from here. Live stock en route for this city from points on the Illinois Central is being brought in by roundabout routes, over connecting lines. It is estimated that between fifteen and sixteen hundred men are idle.
There is danger that unless the strike is soon settled, it will spread to other roads. The Big Four road, which has a track agreement with the Illinois Central, finding itself unable to get freight into the city, made an arrangement with the Chicago, St. Leger, and Illinois. The strikers, suspecting that the Illinois Central was also using the Eastern Illinois, sent word to the employees of that line not to handle Illinois Central freight. The request was complied with, with a vengeance, the Eastern Illinois men refusing to handle any more Big Four cars. Much perishable freight is now side-tracked. On the Illinois Central tracks, large quantities of fruits and berries are side-tracked at various points and fast rotting in the boiling sun. The officials of the road have issued an order to sell these goods out as last as possible.
Committees of trainmen from several roads, including the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul and Chicago, St. Paul and Kansas City roads, have offered to make the strike general unless the trouble is settled tonight.
Superintendent Rassell was formerly connected with these roads, and they say he proved so obnoxious that he was forced off those lines.
The Illinois Central today receded from its position that it was not acquired to send out malls except on regular passenger trains, which could not be made up. The post office authorities say it will be fined for its failure to send out the mail yesterday.
Stock for the St. Louis Arch.
St. Louis, Mo., June 25. Between four and five hundred men employed by the various railroads centering in East St. Louis struck today for higher wages. They have been getting $1.25 per day and now demand $1.60 for ten hours' work.
Improved Theory.
Dr. Brown-Sequard again comes to the fore. It will be remembered what a sensation he created about a year ago by a discovery which he claimed was the fountain of youth. Dr. Brown-Sequard's subcutaneous injection was a month's wonder, but nothing more. Scientists gave his discovery the cold shoulder and the academy of medicine refrained from appointing a special committee to consider the subject as it has often done in analogous cases.
Recently the academy of biology, before which Chairman Brown-Sequard led a report on his discovery, was notified that the learned doctor desired to acquaint them with a new development of his system. During the winter months, while residing in Nice, he experimented with a septum injection of his famous solution. Sequard claimed that by a new treatment there had been rapidly cured cases of chronic intermittent fever, Yellow Fever, dysentery, insomnia, even leprosy. He referred particularly to the cure obtained by a leading physician in the case of a gentleman well known to him and to a fellow member M.D., Arsonval, who corroborated Dr. Sequard's statement. The new system has no more favor with his scientific colleagues than did his first. A large majority are more than skeptical and speak pessimistically of the grand intellectual capacity which is laying, if it has not already lost its balance. There are, however, some who give open and unrestrained admiration to the aged professor, who, at the close of a long career, while other men are resting on their laurels, renovates in labor which he believes to be that of science, careless of the sneer of sarcasm.
Among the others stands prominently Dr. Varlet, who was one of the first among physicians to experiment with other solutions which Sequard had so far only tried upon himself. Among the many is Prof. Germain Bro., whose lectures at the Hotel Dieu have placed him in the front rank of French physicians.
London Press Comment.
LONDON, June 25. [Special Cablegram to The Bivan.] The Post wants the government to drop all bills and simply to ratify the Anglo-German agreement, deal with the supply bill, and immediately adjourn parliament.
The Telegraph says that the government has done all that could legitimately be expected of it in the face of the obstruction offered, and that the best course now is to drop the licensing bill.
Another Home Rule Achieved,
LONDON, June 26. [Special Cablegram to The Bivan.] Highertown Mugadrox, the nominee of Mr. Parnell for the seat in the House of Commons for North Donegal, made vacant by the resignation of Mr. O'Doherty, was so easily elected without opposition. | 11 |

Omaha the third successive defeat today. It
was n spirited contest and n struggle to the
finish. The visitors' misfortune lay in their
Inability to hit the ball at the proper time.
For Instance , In the fifth Inning , with the
bases full from clean hitting and no ono out ,
they failed to tally. Keams scored the first
run for Omaha on a three-bagger drlvo to

fe : after reaching third , on n base on balls , a hit
by Urqiihurt and a sacrillco by Cannvan.
Willis was hit freely by the Sioux City team
when mud wcro needed. The batting feat-
urn was the work of Cleveland and Cllno.
But ono error was costly , It being n wild

drew hundreds of people to the course
today. The weather was perfect and
the crowd Immense. Before the race
bookmakers posted 3 to u against
Salvutor and (5 ( to 5 against Tunny , but the
betting men held off. _ Finally ono bookmaker
offered 7 to 10 on Salvutor and this being all
the Hagglii party wanted they fell on the
"bookies" in great hasto. The bookies held
out fur a while longer and then cut the prlco
to 05 to 100. Tcnny's prlco was lengthened
to la to 1. When the bugle sounded
for the post , However , 7 to 5 could
be had against him ns opposed to 3 to 5
against Snlvator. Garrison bestrode Tcnny
and Murphy was mounted on Salvator.
There was no delay at the post and they
were sent away at onco. Salvntor took the
lead and made a very fast one. Passing the
stand Salvator was half n length in front of
Tenny and this lead he increased to a length
and a naif on the upper turn. As they reached
for the turn Salvator drew away and was
leading by nearly three lengths. Then Garrison
risen commenced to ride and whip and Tonny
closed up the gap inch by Inch. At the las't
sixteenth Tunny was gaining , but Salvator
mnnneod to keep his head in front to the
wire , winning by the shortest of short heads.
Had the nice been twenty yards further Gar
rison's magnificent riding would have landed
Tenuy a winner. A wild shout went up "us

CuAMinnti.MN'S. D. , Juno 25. [ Special to
Tnu BiiK.j The settlers on the Sioux reserva
tion are complaining of the strange "busi
ness" methods of many of the Indians who
live in their vicinity. Early in the spring
Indians began to take up stray horses belong
ing to the settlers , and thn owners would
usually pay them quite liberally for doing so ,
as in many cases the settlers were saved u
great deal of trouble und expense In hunting
for the horses.
Now it appears that the Indians are trying
to take advantage of the liberality of their
white neighbors und nro making a business
of gathering up stray horses and charging
exhorbitnnt prices for giving them up to the
owners. They even go so fur as to visit the
settlor's claims and drive the horses away ,
returning a day or two afterward with them
and attempt to make the owners pay from S5
to $10 per head for finding them. These
bandits of the plains will hereafter bo uioro
closely watched , and efforts will bo made to
bring them to justice.

of May and Juno have been abundant pretty
generally over the stato. Counties in which
the supply has been n little scant are two or
three In the northwestern part of that portion
east of the Missouri river. In Davison , Hun-

fall of ut least ten liichea during the two
months named. The growth of trees mid
grasses never has beeu so thrifty as the pres
ent season.
The acreage of com , especially in the cen
tral and southern sections of the state. Is
larger tlmn that of any prcccdingyear. Aside
from the ravages of the cutworm , which in n
few localities amounted to great damage , the
young corn has done remarkably well , and
that which is receiving good cultivation is as
forward us that of the Iowa corn Holds.
The abundance of rain in the state this year
has put a quietus fan the Irrlg.ition agitation
which was so active early in the year.

road oftlclals , with Vice President Nowmai
of the Northwestern nt the head , nppolntci
to devise means to i-also western freight rate
to the old standard , has at least onn ndvnnci
almost in sight. A meeting wtis held this ul
ternoon to raise the rates to the northwest
and although the details wcro not Jlgum
out , It was resolved to raise the proportion !
of the through rates to Chicago mid St. Pnu
on business not competitive with the luki
lines to the local basis.
The old basis was liO cents and the througl
10 cents. This was reduced to10 cents locu
uud 38 cents throuuh , with a division rate o
22 cents on business from the seaboard.
The regular through proposition
will now bo raised to 40 cents
it being deemed expedient to ralsi
the local rates at present. The
cent rate , coming In competition with lake
rates , cannot bo advanced until tlio cloo ol
navigation. The same plan ot advanclnr
rates will also bo applied at the Missour
river gateways where there was a 20 per ccni
reduction soon uftor the one of ! WJ < , per cenl
went Into effect on the St. Paul.
Should thcso iidvnucca work satisfactorily
the next work will bo done in advancing loca
rates to the old basis between nil westt-j ;
points. This work is being pushed in ordei
to emphasize the opposition to the rcductioi
of all western ( -ruin rules contemplated bj
the Interstate commerce commission.
Word came today from Washington thai
the commission had already decided to reduce
the rates. If this is so , the hearing on Julj
8 will probably , in its preliminary stages ,
take the form of a temporary injunction tc
restrain the commission from reducing rates ,
Should such a step be necessary , no argu
ment before the commission will be made uml
the whole question will bo fought out In the
courts.

CITT o Mr.xtco , Juno 25. [ Special Tele

rciisonabl o. oubt that the Mexican govern
ment fears omo kind of uprising , nnd them
nro various sensational rumors afloat In con
nection therewith , but none of them can bo
traced to n source sufllclcntly nuthcnttc to
wan-ant a rcfututiou. What glvos color to
the belief that the general government appre
hends danger Is the fact that troops are being
mussed on the frontier. It will bo remem
bered that it was on this frontier that the
revolution had birth that made Din ? : presl
den * of Mexico. Tlio llaz government
however , strong enough to nip lu the bud any *
revolution. - . -
Charges have been made against some thrco
or more men under the United States neutral
ity laws , and warrants for their arrest nro
now in the hands of the United States ofll-
cials. It Is most reasonable to suppose that
there are to bo some very sensational devel
opments hin-o iu a few days that will
assume an Intcrnullonal chaitictcr , and the
Diaz government , while it has nothing to
tear , is only acting to preserve the jwaco.
The enemies of Diaz say that the law re
cently passed by the Mexican eouirress mak
ing ft possible nl the next election to elect
Diaz president for life will result in his assas
sination and a revolution. They say that
some of the governors of the states of the
Mexican confederation any noldly that if con
gress can pass a law making it possible to ho
president for life Unit their legislature ought
also to make their tenure of otllco for life.
There is no doubt that the law has occasioned
considerable unrest in Mexico ,
Tlio originators of the outbreak are said to
make their headquarters In Laredo , and
agents of the Mexican government have been
there lor several days securing the mimes
of the men. Warrants have been Issued for

Sioux City 6, Omaha 2.
Sioux City, IA, June 25. [Special-Telegram to THE BEE.] The swarthy Sioux gave
Omaha the third successive defeat today. It
was a spirited contest and a struggle to the
finish. The visitors' misfortune lay in their
Inability to hit the ball at the proper time.
For Instance, In the fifth Inning, with the
bases full from clean hitting and no one out,
they failed to tally. Keams scored the first
run for Omaha on a three-bagger drive to
right and a neat sacrifice by Walsh to reach home plate, after reaching third, on a base on balls, a hit by Urquhart and a sacrifice by Canavan. Willis was hit freely by the Sioux City team
when men were needed. The batting feature was the work of Cleveland and Cline.
One error was costly, It being a wild throw by Collins to Andrews, on which Cline scored. The score:

Siuni-siiKAi) B.\v, L. L, Juno 25. The great event of the day at the Sheepshead track was the Salvator-Tenny match for $6,000 each with $3,000 added by the club, to carry 123 pounds, distance mile and one-quarter. This great event has been the topic of conversation in racing circles for days and It drew hundreds of people to the course today. The weather was perfect and the crowd immense. Before the race, bookmakers posted 3 to 2 against Salvator and 5 to 2 against Tenny, but the betting men held off. Finally, one bookmaker offered 7 to 10 on Salvator and this being all the Hagglii party wanted, they fell on the "bookies" in great haste. The bookies held out for a while longer and then cut the price to 5 to 2. Tenny's price was lengthened to 10 to 1. When the bugle sounded for the post, however, 7 to 5 could be had against him as opposed to 3 to 5 against Salvator. Garrison bestrode Tenny and Murphy was mounted on Salvator. There was no delay at the post and they were sent away at once. Salvator took the lead and made a very fast one. Passing the stand, Salvator was half a length in front of Tenny and this lead he increased to a length and a half on the upper turn. As they reached for the turn, Salvator drew away and was leading by nearly three lengths. Then Garrison began to ride and whip and Tenny closed up the gap inch by inch. At the last sixteenth, Tenny was gaining, but Salvator managed to keep his head in front to the wire, winning by the shortest of short heads. Had the race been twenty yards further, Garrison's magnificent riding would have landed Tenny a winner. A wild shout went up as the time was put up. The record of 2:40 was broken one and one-half seconds and the judges posted 2:05 as the time. The fractional times were as follows: First quarter, 23 seconds; half mile, 49 seconds; five furlongs, 1:02; three-fourths, 1:14; seven-eighths, 1:27; mile, 1:50; mile and one-eighth, 1:53; mile and a quarter, 2:03.

[Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] A large and brilliant meteor shot across the firmament over the city at 10 o'clock this afternoon. It came from the north and descended some miles south of town.

Judge Melville McGill of Red Cloud, candidate for the Alliance and democratic congressional nomination in the second district, is spending considerable of his time in this city in consultation with the secretary of the Adams county alliance. Mr. McGaw apparently occupies the loftiest position of counselor for the alliance. Melville McGill was present at the county alliance last week and some stormy scenes are reported to have occurred during the session. The alliance friends of Dan Netleton of Spring Ranch simply knocked Mr. McGaw's plans into a cocked hat. Preparations for the Fourth. Blair, Neb., June 25. [Special to THE BEE.] The merchants of Blair have united solidly and are pushing to success the most important Fourth of July celebration yet attempted.
General C. H. Van Wyck has accepted an invitation to deliver an address, and a tremendous crowd will be in attendance if the weather is fair. The citizens have published an elegant thirty-six-page illustrated "souvenir" representing the city's best buildings and which contains the program, names of all committees, city officials, facts and figures relative to the business and commercial interests of the city. These will be widely circulated in hopes that they will attract visitors.
Foreman John Limoog will construct a high tower on Walker Avenue for the pyrotechnical display. The tower will be upwards of sixty feet high.
During the afternoon the young ladies of Blair, under the management of Mrs. W. C. Catherwood, will present the "Ladies' Grand National March" on an immense platform specially constructed, which will be among the chief attractions.
The merchants' display, ragamuffin and calathumpian parade, together with all the ludicrous part of the program, will take place at 1:30 p.m. A large number from neighboring towns are coming to the best town in Nebraska to celebrate, and a cordial invitation is extended to the citizens of Omaha.
The reception committee consists of forty of the leading business and professional men, together with several ladies who, designated by a silver badge, will endeavor to show the hospitality and courtesies of the city.
The Veteran Soldiers.
LINCOLN, Neb., June 25. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The evening session of the veteran soldiers was a memorable one. A set of resolutions was adopted favoring the absolute redemption of pledges made to union soldiers during and since the war. The sharks of Wall Street were condemned. The following resolutions were adopted, the old soldiers pledging themselves to support no candidate for congress or senate who did not pledge himself in favor of them:
1. We favor the repeal of the arrears of pension acts.
2. We favor the bill pending in congress in the interest of the pensioners of war.
3. We favor equalizing Midlanders' allotments.
4. We are in favor of a per diem half-service pension bill based on service.
Those were passed without debate. The fifth proved to be a sticker and caused a long debate. It was as follows:
5. We oppose any reduction in the revenue of the country until all promises of war are redeemed.
The resolution was finally passed with a hurrah.
6. We call the attention of congress to the fact that soldiers in all past wars received land warrants for service; it but just that a service pension should be granted at a much earlier date than these given to the soldiers of the war of the revolution, war of 1812, and Indian and Mexican wars.
7. The demand that applicants for pensions ordered before medical boards be sent in all cases before the nearest board. It is decided to work for the election of only such representatives to congress who will pledge themselves to the early passage of a service pension bill which would provide a pension for every honorably discharged soldier.
A Council of Youthful Trumps.
NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., June 25. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] A brace of boy tramp burglars were caught here this afternoon. One of them went to the front door of Jacob Gabriel's house, where he enquired of Mrs. Gabriel the whereabouts of a family whom he claimed was related to him. While talking to the boy, the lady heard a noise in one of the back rooms which directed her attention, and on investigation she discovered a small boy leaving the room. She caught hold of the intruder and yelled for help. Mr. Gabriel, who was near by, came in and secured the boy, finding a valuable gold watch and silver in money, which had been taken from the closet. Both boys were placed under arrest and are candidates for the industrial school.

The Sioux Are Frightened,
Chambers, S. D., June 25. [Special to THE BEE.] Many of the Sioux at Lower Brule agency fully expect that a wonderful and disastrous flood will occur along the Missouri River next month, as predicted some time ago by Montana Indians. An Indian from Lower Brule was in the city this evening and he says that his people are building their houses high from the ground to guard against the expected flood. They predict that the white men's tepees in Chamberlain and along the Missouri river will be swept out of existence because they are built so close to the ground.
Indians Work a Scheme.
Chambers, S. D., June 25. [Special to THE BEE.] The settlers on the Sioux reservation are complaining of the strange "business" methods of many of the Indians who live in their vicinity. Early in the spring, Indians began to take up stray horses belonging to the settlers, and the owners would usually pay them quite liberally for doing so, as in many cases the settlers were saved a great deal of trouble and expense in hunting for the horses.
Now it appears that the Indians are trying to take advantage of the liberality of their white neighbors and are making a business of gathering up stray horses and charging exorbitant prices for giving them up to the owners. They even go so far as to visit the settler's claims and drive the horses away, returning a day or two afterward with them and attempt to make the owners pay from $5 to $10 per head for finding them. These bandits of the plains will hereafter be watched more closely, and efforts will be made to bring them to justice.
South Dakota's Crop Prospects.
Mitchell, S. D., June 25. [Special to THE BEE.] There is now every indication that the small grain crop in this state will be the best ever raised. Rains during the months of May and June have been abundant pretty generally over the state. Counties in which the supply has been a little scant are two or three in the northwestern part of that portion east of the Missouri river. In Davison, Yankton, Hutchinson, and Clay there has been a fall of at least ten inches during the two months named. The growth of trees and grasses never has been so thrifty as the present season.
The acreage of corn, especially in the central and southern sections of the state, is larger than that of any preceding year. Aside from the ravages of the cutworm, which in a few localities amounted to great damage, the young corn has done remarkably well, and that which is receiving good cultivation is as forward as that of the Iowa corn fields.
The abundance of rain in the state this year has put a quietus on the irrigation agitation which was so active early in the year.
Terrific Storm at Huron.
Huron, S. D., June 25. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] A terrific rain and thunderstorm visited here last night. William Bliss' grocery house was damaged by lightning. John Blair's elevator at Sheble, nine miles northeast of here on the Manitoba road, was blown down and 1,000 bushels of wheat were destroyed. Reinsurance on the building or its contents.
HISTORICAL INTERESTS
The Supply of Hogs for the Week
Exceeding Expectations.
Chicago, June 23. (Spoken Telegram to THE BEE.) Tomorrow's Price Current will say: The supply of hogs for the week has exceeded expectation, the report showing a decidedly liberal number handled by western packers, while eastern shipments have been moderate. Total packing for the week is 270,000 against 260,000 for last year, and exceeds March 1 by 420,000 against 395,000 for your ago. Leading points compare follows:

An Ex-Official of the Michigan Central
Assessed $3,000,
SIXTY DAYS IN WHICH TO PAY IT
A Committee of Western Railroads
Officially to Dorset Men to Boston
Western Freight Rates to
the Old Standard.
Chicago, June 25. United States Judge Blodgett rendered a decision against certain executive officials of the Michigan Central for violation of the interstate commerce law. All were discharged except ex-Assistant General Freight Agent Street, who was fined $3,000 and given sixty days in which to pay it.
Try to Lower the Rates.
Chicago, June 20. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] The committee of western railroad officials, with Vice President Newmark of the Northwestern at the head, appointed to devise means to lower western freight rates to the old standard, has at least one advantage almost in sight. A meeting was held this afternoon to raise the rates to the northwest and although the details were not figured out, it was resolved to raise the proportion of the through rates to Chicago and St. Paul on business not competitive with the lake lines to the local basis.
The old basis was 60 cents and the through 10 cents. This was reduced to 10 cents local and 38 cents through, with a division rate of 22 cents on business from the seaboard.
The regular through proposition will now be raised to 40 cents, it being deemed expedient to raise the local rates at present. The 30-cent rate, coming in competition with lake rates, cannot be advanced until the close of navigation. The same plan of advancing rates will also be applied at the Missouri river gateways where there was a 20 percent reduction soon after the one of 15 percent went into effect on the St. Paul.
Should these advances work satisfactorily, the next work will be done in advancing local rates to the old basis between all western points. This work is being pushed in order to emphasize the opposition to the reduction of all western grain rules contemplated by the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Word came today from Washington that the commission had already decided to reduce the rates. If this is so, the hearing on July 8 will probably, in its preliminary stages, take the form of a temporary injunction to restrain the commission from reducing rates. Should such a step be necessary, no argument before the commission will be made and the whole question will be fought out in the courts.

Pittsburgh, Pa., June 23. At the international Sunday school convention this morning, the report of the general executive committee was presented showing the condition of the work. The report of the statistical secretary gives the number of Sunday schools in the United States and British America as 1,111,000, officers and teachers 1,178,000, and scholars 6,150,000. The executive committee recommends as the next convention will be held in Chicago in 1893, that the Sunday schools of the United States erect a building to cost $100,000 in connection with the other world's fair buildings. After several committee reports were presented, a recess was taken.
After recess, Treasurer Bigler presented his report, which showed receipts of $1,188 and expenditures of $811,600 (during the past year). Rev. Warren Randolph, secretary of the international Sunday school lesson committee, read a voluminous report on the committee's work. He said the committee was at work on the third series of lessons, which cover seven years each, and it would be completed by 1894. The people of the continent of Europe had difficulty in adapting themselves to the lessons. American methods are too rapid for them.
Chairman Jacobs of the executive committee presented several resolutions, which were referred to a special committee. One requested the committee on lessons to modify their plans; another requested that more attention be given to temperance in schools hereafter.

By a unanimous vote, the convention endorsed the platform of the personal rights league and resolved that the turners of the United States shall join its ranks and actively participate in its policy of political and general reform.
Hereafter, boxing, wrestling, swimming, and massage treatment will be included in the curriculum of the society and doctors will be engaged to give lessons to pupils in bandaging and dressing wounds, etc.

The platform further expresses uncompromising hostility to monometallism and favors the use of both gold and silver as coin metal, taking care to legislate to secure and maintain parity between the metals.
The administration of President Harrison is heartily endorsed and the course of Speaker Reed commended.

A Burglar Gets Twenty-five Years.
Des Moines, Iowa, June 23. [Special Telegraph to The Des Moines Register] James Quan, alias Solo, who was found guilty of a burglary committed in East Des Moines a couple of months ago, and during which he seriously shot George Grimes, was sentenced today to twenty-five years in the Anamosa penitentiary by a jury. The court in his remarks alluded to the fact that Quan had been only two weeks from the penitentiary, where he had served five years, when the crime of which he is now convicted was committed. Quan attempted to kill himself in his cell last night by drinking a small quantity of water in which matches had been dissolved, but the dose was not strong enough to accomplish the desired result.

The Ted Mooney Case. Ogden, Utah., June 23. [Special Telegraph to The Des Moines Register.] The testimony was closed in the Ted Mooney murder case today. The arguments were opened and will be concluded in the morning. The defense proved that Desmond and repeatedly threatened to kill Ted and that the former was a dangerous man. Ted himself testified in his own behalf and swore to statements totally at variance with those of Coach, the only eye witness present at the trial.
There is scarcely a question that Desmond was killed without warning and that Ted had good reason to fear for his life. Andy Foley of Omaha was the only other eye witness, but he declined to appear to tell what he knew.

BLOODY REVOLUTION FEARED.
The Mexican Government Threatened with
an Uprising of Rebels.
TROOPS MASSED ON THE FRONTIER,
Somewhat Surprising Development of an International Character Episode Echoes of Díaz Threaten to Him.
CITY OF MEXICO, June 25. [Special Telegraph to THE DES MOINES REGISTER:] There seems to be no reasonable doubt that the Mexican government fears some kind of uprising, and there are various sensational rumors afloat in connection therewith, but none of them can be traced to a source sufficiently authentic to warrant a refutation. What gives color to the belief that the general government apprehends danger is the fact that troops are being massed on the frontier. It will be remembered that it was on this frontier that the revolution had birth that made Díaz president of Mexico. The Ház government however, strong enough to nip in the bud any revolution.
Charges have been made against some three or more men under the United States neutrality laws, and warrants for their arrest are now in the hands of the United States officials. It is most reasonable to suppose that there are to be some very sensational developments here in a few days that will assume an international character, and the Díaz government, while it has nothing to fear, is only acting to preserve the peace.
The enemies of Díaz say that the law recently passed by the Mexican congress making it possible at the next election to elect Díaz president for life will result in his assassination and a revolution. They say that some of the governors of the states of the Mexican confederation openly stated that if Congress can pass a law making it possible to be president for life, then their legislature ought also to make their tenure of office for life. There is no doubt that the law has occasioned considerable unrest in Mexico.
The originators of the outbreak are said to make their headquarters in Laredo, and agents of the Mexican government have been there for several days securing the names of the men. Warrants have been issued for Rubén Sotón and about fifty others. The fugitives are said to be stationed about fifty miles above Laredo. Yglesias left Fort Ringgold last night for the point where scouts indicate the rendezvous of the revolutionists with a sufficient force of United States soldiers to kill or capture them. At the same time, a force of Mexican Regulars left the fort in New Laredo to intercept the revolutionists should they attempt to escape across the Rio Grande.
EVENING EDITION THREATENS THE DICTATORSHIP.

Prof. Davis came here last week from Lake Forest College, North Carolina, and took charge of the academy here.

Transactions in the Wheat Pit Show Many Eccentricities.
HEAVY FEELING IN THE CORN CORNER,
Oats Followed the Example of the Other Cereals Provisional Trials More Active Cotton and Hogs.
Chicago, June 23. [Special Telegram to THE HERALD.] There was a bit market in which today. There was a heavy business on both sides and the result today, after parting higher or lower prices were concerned, was in doubt until the last hour, when operators who were bullish in wheat acted against a bearish sentiment and the market recovered and moved up pretty strongly. The action up to 1 o'clock was as follows: July 81c to 51c to 45c to 51c to 48c to 41c; August 85c to 49c to October to 41c; September 50c to 49c to December 87c to 91c to 87c to 85c to 87c to 85c. The close of the market was strong and at pains of 93c over last night. Unfavourable dispatches from the northwest, cash demand and change of sentiment did the work. July held up to 45c, August 49c; and December 51c. The closing prices were: June 56c, July 85c, August 90c, September 95c, and December 87c. On the curb, July wheat was 85c to 91c; September to 95c; and December to 93c.
There was a heavy feeling in the corn corner all day. There were several reasons for it. First, inspections were not up to the usual amount, with only 118,031 bushels taken from the floor. Shipments were comparatively light at 277,000 bushels. The clearances from Atlantic ports were right. Cables were easy for spot and futures. More than all this, hot weather was favorable for backward holdings and caused dealers to turn sellers. New York dispatches said mild hogs were pounding the market there on hot weather. Hutchison sold July early. Later in the day the outlook changed somewhat and there was a fair rally from the bottom to the prices, but the closing figures were still below the close last night. The prices were: June 56c at the close; July, 45c to 43c; August, 51c to 49c; September, 50c to 49c; and December, 87c to 91c to 87c. A sale of May at 83c was the first reported.
Oats followed the course of the other cereals all day. July sold off to 7pC and closed steady with last night at 87c; August opened at 87c, held at 87c and recovered to 91c; September, 93c to 91c to 93c at the close: May sold at 83c and 91c.
There was little news in the pit, but the market acted very sensitive, especially for August and September. The provision trade was a little more active today. Very little was done in the pit the first hour, but there were some selling on the morning call. Dispatches from the yards made the hog market easier after the opening. On this short re-bid, the market opened with a small decline, but held fairly steady during the day. Burlesque was field freely by speculators. Stock here is increasing, and shipments are not satisfactory. New York was not attracting any attention. July pork sold at 8.65c; July lard was on at 12.50 to 12.60; July ribs touched 6.00, a decline of 50c, and regained 7/8c to 83c; September ribs touched 8.50 and September lard 9.00. Chicago, June 23. [Special Telegram to THE HERALD.] Business was slow and prices were weak to 10c lower on good native steers. Out of 10,000 in the run, 12,500 were natives and 4,000 Texans. It will be seen that a large percentage of offerings were natives, of which a great bulk were of good to choice quality. There was little or no change in the price on Texans, especially where quality was equal to the price. Native butchers' stock had to give way to the run of Texans and sold rather easier. As was the case yesterday, there were scarcely a sufficient number of stockers on sale to make the market; hence prices are entirely nominal, but a few things on sale sold at strong prices. Choice to extra beefs, $4.50 to $6.00; medium to good steers, $3.50 to $4.50; light to medium hogs, $1.70 to $2.30; stockers and feeders, $1.20 to $1.40; cows, bulls and mixed, $110 to $1.20; hogs, $1.70 to $2.50; and stop-fed steers, $1.60 to $4.40; Texas steers, $1.50 to $1.70; cows, $1.50 to $1.70; hogs The market once started steady to strong, but closed weak and 5c to 10c lower, $1.73 being a strong pork at the close for good mixed. A few loads of prime heavy shippers sold early at 84c; to 92c at the close, the best heavy would barely bring $1.70; light sorts, $1.70.
N.R.W YORK. June 25. (Special Telegram to The HUB.) The leading operators of Wall Street have great hopes that with the clearing away of trust stocks, following the decision of yesterday, the railroad list may enter upon a more natural course of action. Old hands, however, say that there will be no broad market or uniform business until after indep. day is passed. Then, according to these same hands, Atchison, Missouri Pacific and St. Paul will, in all probability, lead the general advance in standard securities. In the face of this expression is the fact that the public bought out of the market. The evidence of inside dealings in many stocks will tend to keep the public out. There was nothing remarkable about the first dealings today. There was a slow pressure upon Sugar Hines, but the stocks of the regular list were not affected by the decline in that stock and a firm tone prevailed, which resulted in the establishment of material advances in some parts of the list. The first prices, accompanied with the closing figures of last evening were generally from 1 to 5 percent higher, while Sugar was off 5 cents at 70. The price of the last named quickly descended to 70, at which point the check was given a downward movement and a fractional recovery took place. In the meantime Reading, which had developed considerable activity, had moved up 5 percent to 47, and the rest of the regular list from 1 to 2 percent, but the improvement went no further, and the later figures were slightly lower, though Sugar touched 70. The market continued without animation and at 11 o'clock was dull and stagnant. There was little change in the market during the hour to 2 o'clock. Northern Pacific shares were up 1 point for common and 4 points for preferred. Reading lost 1 point from its best point at 11 o'clock, while Atchison, St. Paul and Missouri Pacific each held small gains over the last prices yesterday. There were a few stocks which showed remarkable strength on light business. Atchison rose during the last hour to 45, with a 5 percent gain for the day. Sugar was off 3 points at the close at 70; nearly all stocks showed slight advances and the feeling is comparatively full. Total sales, round shares.

Estimates.
Cattle.
Wednesday, June 25.
Estimated receipts of cattle 2,800, compared with 2,075 yesterday and 2,800 Wednesday of last week. The receipts during the first half of the week have been 5,851, compared with 6,911 during the corresponding period last week, a falling off of 1,060. The market opened lower, was very slow nearly all day, steers selling 10c lower, with not a few sales reported 15c lower. Among the heavy receipts are some very fair cattle. The receipts of cows were liberal, but there were no fancy cows among the arrivals. Chocolate fancy cows would bring about steady prices. The market on the best grades of cows in the yards is firm lower and slow, other grades are off more. Together with the hold-overs, the receipts of stockers and feeders will supply all demands although there was considerable inquiry for that kind of stock.
Estimated receipts of hogs 8,100, compared with 8,813 yesterday and 8,818 Wednesday of last week. The total receipts during the first half of the week, have been 21,122, compared with 21,971 during the corresponding period last week, a falling off of 4,849. The market, under the influence of large receipts and discouraging advices, opened slow and lower, closing weaker than it opened. In the early morning, buyers set their prices to knock off 5c, but sellers were loath to accept the offers, causing the market to be very slow during the early morning hours. At midday, forty loads yet remained in first hands, all of which sold at steady prices during the afternoon. The range of prices was 1.45 @ 1.75; high, $8.13 @ 8.30; mixed, $1.23 @ 1.25; heavy, $1.43 @ 1.57; average of the prices paid was $1.65, compared with $1.75 yesterday and $2.45 Wednesday of last week.

The Situation.
The money market continues firm with a
fair demand for loans and an ample supply
with which to meet them. Rates are
steady at 8 per cent. General trade began
to thin and travel to salesmen are coming
home to assist at stock taking. Prices show
but slight change. Sugar droops slightly
while coffee is weaker. Foreign fruits are
firm and higher. Lemons are up $1.00 per
box with a very brisk demand. The sale of
tobacco works has been heavier this year
than usual, two of the principal retail houses
having made preparations to dispose of
$7,500 worth each. The cigar manufacturers
are much exercised over the tobacco
schedule of the tariff bill which imposes
duties calculated to throw the entire trade
in this line into the hands of the large
eastern factories and if the bill is passed as it
stands, many of the small dealers will be
forced out of business.
of Pythias Grand Conclave,
at Milwaukee, Wis., July, 1912.
For this event occasion tickets will be sold
from all principal points in the United States
and Canada to Milwaukee and return via the
Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul railway at half
rates.
As its name indicates, the Chicago,
Milwaukee and St. Paul railway is the
direct route to Milwaukee, and as the
camp ground for the Uniformed Knights
(to which point cars and trains will be
run through without transfer) is located
directly on this line, it will be seen that the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad
has great advantage over other routes which
are unable to furnish such facilities, and
visiting Knights, their families and friends
should bear this in mind when purchasing
excursion tickets.

The tobacco schedule of the new tariff bill
reads as follows:
212 Leaf tobacco, suitable for cigar wrappers,
if not stemmed, $3 per pound; if stemmed,
$2.75 per pound; provided, that if any portion
of any tobacco imported in any bale, box or
package, or in bulk, shall be suitable for
cigar wrappers, the entire quantity of
tobacco contained in such bale, box or
package or bulk, shall be dutiable; if not
stemmed at $2.50 per pound, if stemmed at $3.75
per pound. (287)
All other tobacco in leaf, unmanufactured and
not stemmed, 15 cents per pound, if stemmed,
50 cents per pound. (288)
Tobacco, manufactured, of all descriptions,
not specially enumerated or provided for in
this act, 10 cents per pound. (832)
Snuff and snuff flour, manufactured of tobacco,
ground dry or damp, and pickled, scented or
otherwise, of all descriptions, 5 cents per pound.
(811)
Cigars, cigarettes and cheroots of all kinds,
$1.50 per pound and 25 percent ad valorem;
but paper cigars and cigarettes, including
wrappers, shall be subject to the same duties
as are herein imposed upon cigars.
Not a California Bear.
Anybody can catch a cold this kind of
weather. The trouble is to let go, like the
man who caught the bear. We advise our
readers to purchase from the Goodman Drug
company a bottle of SANTA CLAIRE, the
California King of Consumption, Asthma,
Bronchitis, Coughs and Croup Cures, and
keep it handy. "It's pleasing to the taste and
death to the above complaints. Sold at $1, 00 a
bottle or $5.00 for $3.50. CALIFORNIA COLD
CURE gives immediate relief. The catarrh virus
is soon displaced by its healing and penetrating
nature. Give it a trial.
Six months treatment, $1.00; sent by mail,

A Site for London's Eiffel Tower.
A site two miles west of St. John's
Wood has been fixed upon for the Watkin
tower, and a small company of engineers,
capitalists, railway men and others are
about to inspect it. It is not intended that
any times shall be lost in carrying out the
project. The ground is actually bought, and
before many weeks are over the digging of the
foundations of the tower will be commenced.
MUCH Nerve and Liver Pills.
An important discovery. They act on the
liver, stomach and bowels through the
nerves. A new principle. They speedily
cure biliousness, bad taste, torpid liver,
piles and constipation. Splendid for men,
women and children. Smallest, mildest,
surest, and doses for 25 cents. Samples free
at McKinley & Co.'s 15th and Douglas.
General Longstreet as a Historian.
General Longstreet, the most distinguished
surviving soldier of the Confederacy,
after spending two weeks in St. Louis as
the guest of Mr. Jerome Hill, left for his
Georgia home on Thursday, says the St.
Louis Republic. It is understood that General
Longstreet is engaged upon a history of the
civil war, and especially of the campaigns in
which he took part, and, if he lives to
complete the work, it can not fail to be a
valuable contribution to the history of a
conflict all of which he lived and part of
which he was.

On account of our tremendous expansion, we have moved to more spacious and convenient offices. Beginning Monday, all trains leaving from Union Station will operate from the new terminal at 17th and St. Joseph Streets, alongside the Missouri River. This includes both local and long-distance services.
The Chicago, St. Louis, and Kansas City Express trains will continue to operate as scheduled, with minor adjustments to their arrival and departure times. Similarly, the Chicago-St. Louis overnight service and the Philadelphia-New York-Louisville route will also maintain their current schedules.
However, it is important to note that due to the construction of the new terminal, some services may experience minor delays or changes in their departure times. We urge all passengers to confirm their travel details with our ticket office or via our website to ensure they have the most up-to-date information.
In addition to the operational changes, we are excited to announce that our new terminal includes several modern amenities, including a dining facility, a waiting room with comfortable seating, and restrooms. These improvements are designed to enhance the travel experience for our passengers and make their journey more enjoyable.
For those traveling on our regional routes, we also have some updates to share. The Lincoln-Denver and Omaha-Wisconsin Junction services will now operate from the new terminal, offering direct connections to these destinations. Additionally, our Kansas City-Omaha service has been expanded to include a stop at St. Joseph, Missouri.
As always, safety remains our top priority, and we have implemented several measures to ensure that all journeys are undertaken in a safe and comfortable manner. Our trains are equipped with the latest in safety technologies, and our staff is trained to respond to any emergency situation.
We appreciate your continued trust in us as we navigate these changes. Whether you're embarking on a cross-country journey or simply making a local trip, we pledge to provide the same level of service and commitment to excellence that has defined us for over a century.
Thank you,

A I.KTTKK from Charley Brown on

Tun fact that the city bonds of Deadwood -
wood netted a premium of four per cent
speaks well for the financial and commer
cial standing1 of the metropolis of the

TIIK Minnesota prohibitionists are not
half as anxious to rout high license ns
they are to secure olllcc. This explains
their furious denunciation of existing
parties and the nomination of an inde
pendent state ticket.

Is decidedly cheeky.

croasu their troubles. They musteither

TUK ItAIIMOADS
The Interstate commerce commission
in its report to the senate regarding
transportation charges on food products
from the west to the distribution cen
ters of the east , declared that the pre
vailing rales on corn and oats from the
Mist-ourl river , and from stations in
Kansas and Nebraska west of tlio river ,
are excessive and should bo .reduced.
Later the commission summoned the
woBtorn railroads to show cause why
their grain rates should not bo
reduced to the figures named
by Iho commission as a reasonable max
imum charge and appointed July 8 for
the hearing. This implied a purpose on
the part of Iho commission to order the
rates reduced.
The railroads will respond to the sum
mons with the intention , it is an
nounced , of contesting the right of the
commission to order a reduction. At a
meeting of prominent officials and lead
ing attorneys of the roads' In Chicago on
Tuesday it was decided to nmko
this issue , the roads taking the
broad ground that the commission
has no authority to interfere with trans
portation charges. The dispatch states
that the corporation attorneys will base
their action on the decision of the supreme
premo court in the Minnesota granger
cases , but it is not quite clear how this
can bo made to apply. Those cases in
volved the right of a state commission
to arbitrarily determine what wore
reasonable charges , the supreme court
deciding that the question of reasona
bleness was one to bo deter
mined by judicial investigation.
The principle involved was that
a legislature cannot delegate tea
a commission arbitrary authority which
might bo carried to the extent of prac
tically confiscating the property of a
corporation , and that where thcro is an
issue regarding the reasonableness of a
rate proscribed by a state commission a
railroad has the right to have the ques
tion judicially investigated and deter
mined. It is at least questionable
whether this can bo made to apply to
the action of the commission created by
a law of congress and representing the au
thority of the national government. It is
true that the interstate commerce act
docs not specifically confer upon the
commission the power to order a reduc
tion of rates , but such authority is cer
tainly implied.
The result of the action of tlio rail
roads in this matter will bo awaited with
very great and general interest , for the
question involved is obviously of the
very highest importance. It will bo the
first direct issue between the corpora
tions and the commission , and the result
will have great significance. If the cor
porations are sustained the value of the
commission , as the law now stands , will
bo very matetirally impaired , while if
they are defeated there will bo" a very
general demand for a readjustment of
rates by the commission. A conflict of
this kind was curtain to come sooner or
later , and the eauso that has produced
it is of such large and far-reaching im
portance iw to nriko it a mutter of na
tional interest.

The appointment of Birkhausor as
chairman of the board of public works
will create no surprise. Mayor C'ushing
has been a mere dummy in the hands of
the council combine since his election.
Ho has simply executed the orders of
the conspirators and meekly played into
their hands for the sake of having his
appointments conilrmod. Instead of
being a guardian of the interests of the
city , ho is ti mere catsp.iw to pull chest
nuts out of the lira for political jobbers
and venal contractors. What else could
have boon expected ? Cusning came into
olllco mortgaged body and soul to the
renegades and boodlers who founded the
Tammany twenty-eight club. Ho .will
continue the property of this precious
gang of rogues until they are broken up
by an outraged community.
Mayor Gushing can no longer pose as
a second Grover Cleveland , who pro
claimed that a public ollico is a public
trust. Starting out with loud profes
sions of his purp&ia to apply business
methods to the conduct of the affairs of
this city , ho has shown u shameful dis
regard of busineos methods in the most
important appointment at his disposal.
The chairman of the board of public
works of a city like Omaha should bo
qualified by education and experience to
supervise the construction and mainte
nance of public works. Mayor Gushing
has filled that olllco with a man whoso
only trade has boon trade in politics ant ?
speculation in real estate options. The
chairman of the board of public works
should bo a man frco from
all obligations to contractors
and above trading the iiifiuonco
of his position for political ends. Mayor
dishing has not only ignored those essen
tial qualifications , but helms chosen a
man whoso appointment has boon dictated -
ted by contractors , mercenary councilmen -
men , and political roustabouts.
The mayor nuulo this appointment
with the full knowledge that Blrkhauser
will hold Ills ollico for throe years unless
removed for causo. Wo venture to say
that in the history of American cities
thero' is not a p.millol for such a delib-
oratos.iurilioa of tlu public interests at
thobohcst of public plunderers.

If congress does not take bomo action
at the present session looking to the
preservation of the forests on the public
domain , the disclosures to bo oxpjctod
from the consu.s regarding the depletion
of the timber supply will perhaps induce
legislation at the next S3ssion. Tlio
dlniculty is that congiM-wmen sojm ut
terly unable to realize the importance
of this nvittor , and hence little attention
has boon pilJ tothofaotisubmlttad from
tlmu to tlnu showing the rapid destruc
tion of the forests or to the roconunonda-
tlons for its prevention. The striking
statistics of the ravages resulting from
the rocklo.ss greed of lumberman and the
devastation of forest fires have failed to
duly impress the congressional mind
with the necessity df providing ade
quate safeguards against the continu
ance of thusa destructive agoncius , and
consequently the forosXs arc still at their
mercy. If this destruction is allowed to
go on unchecked it cannot bo many
years before the lumber supply of the
country is exhausted.
Soiuo recent statistics regarding the
amount of lumber taken from Michigan ,
Mirtiip ota and Wisconsin are interest
ing. It appears that last year these
three states produced over eight billions
superficial foot of lumbar and that the
cut of shingles during that year in the
same section win nearly llvo billion
pieces. The census of 1890 estimated
that there wore standing lii those states
about eighty-four billion foot of lumber ,
and as the amount cut during the past
ton years has been over seventy-four
billion foot there is less than ton billion
foot remaining , or but one year's
stock on hand. Thus nt farthest two
jnoro years will very likely witness the
exhaustion of the white pine forests of
Michigan , Minnesota and Wisconsin. It
is said that equally as serious a con
dition of things exists among the spruce
forests of Maine , Now Hampshire and
Vermont , whllo the supply of the same
timber in the Adlrondacks lias been
greatly reduced. An authority on for
estry says that there is no more timber
in the South Atlantic and Gulf sections
than will bo required for homo use as
eoon as any material local - de
velopment shall take place , whllo
on the Pacific coast tracts of good ( 'Xxbcr
are confined to special spots , for the pro
duct of which there is a demand from
foreign markets. Those who have
counted on falling back upon Canada
may perhaps bo surprised to learn that
tlio dominion Is almost as badly olT as is
this country in the supply of merchant
able pine timber. All those facts show
the urgent need of provision , national
and state , for preserving the forests that
remain and for replenishing the rapidly
falling supply.
THK present congress ought not to ad-
jpurn without providing for a system of
cattle and meat inspection , unless nil ef
fort to enlarge our foreign tr.ido in cat
tle and meats is to bo abandoned. Oppo
sition to-a national law for this purpose
is confined , so far as wo have observed ,
to eastern shippers , who for reasons not
at all conclusive contend that such a law
would accomplish no good , but would operate -
orate to the disadvantage of their inter
ests. The fact that those shippers up-
p'car to bo fully satisfied with the present
condition of affairs is bimply evidence
that they enjoy peculiar advantages not
possessed by others in Iho same line , and
Is not to bo seriously considered in face
of the estimate , probably not at all ex
aggerated , that our foreign trade in
cattle and meals could bo increased in
value fifty million dollars a year if wo
had a judicious national inspection law
olllciontly enforced. The secretary of
agriculture has strongly recommended
such a law as absolutely necessary to
successful negotiations with Euro
pean countries for the removal or modi
fication of the restrictions upon the im
portation of American cattle and meat
products , and our ministers to Franco
and Germany have expressed a like
opinion. It is largely our own fault that
those restrictions exist , and the only
remedy is to bo found in a system of
thorough national inspection which will
deprive foreign governments of all ex
cuse for claiming that our moats cannot
sufoly bo used.
Now that Charley Brown has come to
the front as sponsor and bondsman for
Birkhauser , and indirectly has played

heartily seconded by the Tammany stal
warts. It is in accord with the eternal

Ltxcor.x , Nob. , Juno 25. [ Special to Tun
Bur. . ] The union labor party held a confer
ence at lied lilbbou hall this afternoon.
Thrco hundred ntul twenty-live delegates
from various parts of the state handed In
their credentials ; but just nlnetyiilnovcro
present.
I. N. Chamberlain of Stromsburg , chnlr-
mnu of the stnto committee of the union labor
party , called the convention to order. The
temporary organization resulted In the elec
tion of Allen Hoot of Douglas county as chair
man nnd J. H. Craddock of Lancaster county
as secretary. When Hoot took the chair ho
stated that the tlmo would come when the
producing class must Und means to remedy
the evils existing hi our state government ,
mid if the men elected to ofllco should play
them false thnt the hemp was growing that
would hang them.
William McICelgan of Ked Cloud made n
short speech , the tenor of his remarks being
that the tlmo had come when the labor or
ganizations demanded n secret ballot system
and a monetary system that would glvo the
people money. Ho was opposed to the ullen
ownership of laud.
After n short speech by I..N. Chamberlain
of Stromsburg J. E. Colby of Washington
county made n long speech in which ho
favored the making of gold , silver nnd green
backs for legal tender.
Mr. John H. Powers , president of thn stnto
alliance nnd vice president of the national al
liance , was called for. He said that ho rep
resented between 00,000 nnd 70,003 people.
That the organization ho represented was
distinctively a political organization. Ho
asked those urcscut to join with the alliance
in its work.
George Lynn , n lawyer from Hastings , said
that ho had been n prohibitionist since 1SIO.
Ho insisted that those who produce the wealth
of the country should enjoy it. Ho said ho
and Mr. J. B. Koch had done n great deal of
work In the publication of the labor paper ,
Our Own Opinion , and in other'lines for the
labor Interest and that they were deserving
of some of the money of the country as a fair
return.
The report of the committee on credentials
was then adopted. On motion of ex-Gov
ernor David IJutler the temporary organiza
tion was m ide permanent.
I. N. Chamberlain then addressed the dele
gates saying that ho know the minds of the
people before him ; that this class of people
uro inexperienced ; Unit if any of them are
asked to come to Lincoln to attend a conven
tion they are liable to ask if Lincoln is In
Nebraska. If cue is asked to con tribute u penny
to the cause , ho will pinch the penny anil
keep It. The speaker said that ho hud
worked for the party for n year , that his
family had somehow got something to eat ,
but ho had received nothing for his services.
He spoke in a belittling manner of the antimonopoly -
monopoly republican convention dubbing it
"the Leese-Kosowator-Keckloy affair , " and
attempted to ridicule the action of Governor
Tlmyer in revoking the call for a special ses-
slonoftholegislature. Ilapuffed the "Journal
of the Knights of Labor" and urged his audi
tors to subscribe for this paper. His closing
scntcncowas : "I have labored as earnestly
as God has given mo strength to got you to
gether. Now do something. "
Ex-Governor Butler moved that Chamber
lain bo re-elected as chairman of the state
committee for the ensuing year.
Chamberlain then jumped up and said :
"Taffy don't feed the babies. If you go
along the principles I have proclaimed I will
go with you. If not I will not. "
Mr. Maxwell of Lincoln then nroso nnd ex
pressed considerable surprise that Governor
Butler should make such a motion. Ho did
not know that the meeting was of the union
labor political party. Ho supposed that the
representatives present were bimply hero on
invitation nnd could not vote on the reelection
tion of Air. Chamberlain or bo responsible
for the same.
"What did you come bpro for ! " snecringly
asked Chamberlain.
Maxwell paid no attention to the query and
Chamberlain asked the same question three
more times , adorning it each time with some
exclamation.
Chamberlain then moved thnt Maxwell bo
excused from voting and the chairman at
tempted to put the question without a second ,
but was culled to order.
S. J. Kent of Lincoln then nroso and said
ho came not as a politician , but as a member
of the carpenters' union to represent them lu
independent political action , und that ho
wanted to know before ho voted If the prin
ciples advocated by the carpenters' union
were to bo incorporated in the resolutions
adopted by the delegation present.
Air. McCord of Valley then insisted thnt a
series of resolutions bo llrst adopted instead ,
of attempting to club the delegates Into voting
ing before any dolhiito understanding had
been ugreed upon.
On motion of Mr. Craddock the following
resolutions adopted by the national conven
tion of the Knights of Labor ut St. Louis
were adopted :
1. That we demand the abolition of national

This brought Chamberlain to his foot , and
ho wanted to know If there were also to bo
added resolutions favoring prohibition , 1'ron-
byterianism , utholsm und the Darwinian
theory. Ho sarcastically usked If the soldiers1
gruiuichlldron were next to bo heard from ,
lie made n long speech bitterly opposing the

Mr. MoKlegan then runio forward und
uskea Governor Butler the following ques

'Is It right to pay the bondholders In

"No , sir , " said Butler , "but wo uiual light

After seine other debate Mr. MeCom inndo

with a shout.
It. W. Maxwell then shouted Ills votco
hoar.se urging that n prohibition plank So
added lo the sorlc.s of resolutions , but was
emphatically sat down on by n hurried mo
tloti for the adoption of the resolutions as a
whole. This prevailed.
A motion was then inado lo proceed to put

W. P. ICnox of Broken Bow took the plat
form , nnd claiming to voice the sentiments o
40,000 farmers , members of the union labor
party nml Knights of Labor , begged the
delegates not to put a ticket in uomlnatloi

a long speech urging unity of action , urn

In The revised lexicon of the council combine as a public office is a private anarchy.
The cohesive power of municipal plunder has lost none of its potency in the combine.
The marvelous activity in the sanitary department indicates a consuming feeling for the public health.
A LETTER from Charley Brown on municipal reform, with Birkhouser at the head of the board of public works, is now in order.
The DAILY commiserates the democracy on its inability to furnish a more competent man for chairman of the board of public works than Polo Birkhouser.
The fact that the city bonds of Deadwood netted a premium of four percent speaks well for the financial and commercial standing of the metropolis of the Black Hills.
The Minnesota prohibitionists are not half as anxious to rout high license as they are to secure office. This explains their furious denunciation of existing parties and the nomination of an independent state ticket.
Some cities in the state will doubtless be disappointed over the result of the census, but they should not get discouraged. Let them accept the result cheerfully and renew their efforts to stimulate industry and manufactures.
John T. Clark heads the list of Birkhouser's bondsmen. John testified that the Tammany Twenty-eight Club, of which he is a member, is composed entirely of republican stalwarts. And precious stalwarts are they to be sure.
The purchase of the museums by the English syndicate will not seriously affect the local supply of entertaining curiosities. As long as the council combine exists, there will be no shortage in the quantity and quality of local freaks.
Now that the bullionists have cooled down, they are willing to accept a coinage bill which establishes a steady market for all the silver produced in the country and at the same time prevents the national treasury being made the dumping ground of the surplus silver of Mexico, South America, and Germany.
The plate glass manufacturers are alarmed. The prospective loss of the increased tariff smuggled into the McKinley bill touches a vital spot in their pocketbooks. In view of the fact that their industry netted twelve percent last year, the demand for increased protection is decidedly cheeky.
There are several luminous blood spots on the Mexican moon, and a revolution impends. It is a dull, dreary season that does not develop a crop of domestic disturbance in the land of the greaser. They are a vital element of the country's life. Without its periodic revolt and blood-letting, the republic would have no rational excuse for existence.
The late Judge McCrary exemplified in his life those niggardly virtues born and strengthened by persistent toil. His early life afforded few of the advantages which are open to the youth of today. His hard, ceaseless work on a farm served to lay the foundation of a career honorable to himself and his country.
In the halls of congress, in the cabinet, and on the bench, he displayed a conscientious devotion to duty. Few men leave a more meritorious record than Judge McCrary.
The British ministry is hopelessly entangled. By pursuing a blundering, monotonous incapacity and brutal disregard of public sentiment, the tories and their unnatural allies have been driven into a corner from which they cannot extricate themselves honorably. The narrow margin by which they escaped defeat on the liquor bill forced them to emasculate the measure, but this only bore to increase their troubles. They must either abandon the bill or appeal to the country. The latter alternative they will avoid at any sacrifice of honor or principle, for they know that overwhelming defeat awaits them at the polls. It may be expected, therefore, that the ministry will cling to power, with one foot in the grave, while there is a shadow of a chance of holding a majority in the commons.
THE RAILROADS
The Interstate Commerce Commission, in its report to the senate regarding transportation charges on food products from the west to the distribution centers of the east, declared that the prevailing rates on corn and oats from the Missouri river, and from stations in Kansas and Nebraska west of the river, are excessive and should be reduced.
Later, the commission summoned the western railroads to show cause why their grain rates should not be reduced to the figures named by the commission as a reasonable maximum charge and appointed July 8 for the hearing. This implied a purpose on the part of the commission to order the rates reduced.
The railroads will respond to the summons with the intention, it is announced, of contesting the right of the commission to order a reduction. At a meeting of prominent officials and leading attorneys of the roads in Chicago on Tuesday, it was decided to make this issue, the roads taking the broad ground that the commission has no authority to interfere with transportation charges. The dispatch states that the corporation attorneys will base their action on the decision of the supreme court in the Minnesota granger cases, but it is not quite clear how this can be made to apply. Those cases involved the right of a state commission to arbitrarily determine what were reasonable charges, the supreme court deciding that the question of reasonableness was one to be determined by judicial investigation.
The principle involved was that a legislature cannot delegate to a commission arbitrary authority which might be carried to the extent of practically confiscating the property of a corporation, and that where there is an issue regarding the reasonableness of a rate proscribed by a state commission a railroad has the right to have the question judicially investigated and determined. It is at least questionable whether this can be made to apply to the action of the commission created by a law of Congress and representing the authority of the national government. It is true that the interstate commerce act does not specifically confer upon the commission the power to order a reduction of rates, but such authority is certainly implied.
The result of the action of the railroads in this matter will be awaited with very great and general interest, for the question involved is obviously of the very highest importance. It will be the first direct issue between the corporations and the commission, and the result will have great significance. If the corporations are sustained the value of the commission, as the law now stands, will be very materially impaired, while if they are defeated there will be a very general demand for a readjustment of rates by the commission. A conflict of this kind was certain to come sooner or later, and the cause that has produced it is of such large and far-reaching importance that it makes it a matter of national interest.
THE NEW CHAIRMAN.
The appointment of Birkhauser as chairman of the board of public works will create no surprise. Mayor Cushing has been a mere dummy in the hands of the council combine since his election. He has simply executed the orders of the conspirators and meekly played into their hands for the sake of having his appointments confirmed. Instead of being a guardian of the interests of the city, he is a mere catspaw to pull chestnuts out of the fire for political jobbers and venal contractors. What else could have been expected? Cushing came into office mortgaged body and soul to the renegades and boodlers who founded the Tammany twenty-eight club. He will continue the property of this precious gang of rogues until they are broken up by an outraged community.
Mayor Cushing can no longer pose as a second Grover Cleveland, who proclaimed that a public office is a public trust. Starting out with loud professions of his purpose to apply business methods to the conduct of the affairs of this city, he has shown a shameful disregard of business methods in the most important appointment at his disposal. The chairman of the board of public works of a city like Omaha should be qualified by education and experience to supervise the construction and maintenance of public works. Mayor Cushing has filled that office with a man whose only trade has been trade in politics and speculation in real estate options. The chairman of the board of public works should be a man free from all obligations to contractors and above trading the influence of his position for political ends. Mayor Cushing has not only ignored those essential qualifications, but has chosen a man whose appointment has been dictated by contractors, mercenary councilmen, and political roustabouts.
The mayor made this appointment with the full knowledge that Birkhauser will hold his office for three years unless removed for cause. We venture to say that in the history of American cities, there is not a parallel for such a deliberate disregard of the public interests at the hands of the boldest of public plunderers.
FOREST DEPLETION.
If Congress does not take some action at the present session looking to the preservation of the forests on the public domain, the disclosures to be expected from the census regarding the depletion of the timber supply will perhaps induce legislation at the next session. The difficulty is that Congressmen seem utterly unable to realize the importance of this matter, and hence little attention has been paid to the reports submitted from time to time showing the rapid destruction of the forests or to the recommendations for its prevention. The striking statistics of the ravages resulting from the reckless greed of lumbermen and the devastation of forest fires have failed to duly impress the congressional mind with the necessity of providing adequate safeguards against the continuation of these destructive agencies, and consequently the forests are still at their mercy. If this destruction is allowed to go on unchecked it cannot be many years before the lumber supply of the country is exhausted.
Some recent statistics regarding the amount of lumber taken from Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin are interesting. It appears that last year these three states produced over eight billions superficial foot of lumber and that the cut of shingles during that year in the same section was nearly five billion pieces. The census of 1890 estimated that there were standing in those states about eighty-four billion feet of lumber, and as the amount cut during the past two years has been over seventy-four billion feet there is less than ten billion feet remaining, or but one year's stock on hand. Thus, for at least two more years will very likely witness the exhaustion of the white pine forests of Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. It is said that equally as serious a condition of things exists among the spruce forests of Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, while the supply of the same timber in the Adirondacks has been greatly reduced. An authority on forestry says that there is no more timber in the South Atlantic and Gulf sections than will be required for home use as soon as any material local development shall take place, while on the Pacific coast tracts of good timber are confined to special spots, for the product of which there is a demand from foreign markets. Those who have counted on falling back upon Canada may perhaps be surprised to learn that the dominion is almost as badly off as is this country in the supply of merchantable pine timber. All those facts show the urgent need of provision, national and state, for preserving the forests that remain and for replenishing the rapidly falling supply.
THE present Congress ought not to adjourn without providing for a system of cattle and meat inspection, unless all effort to enlarge our foreign trade in cattle and meats is to be abandoned. Opposition to a national law for this purpose is confined, so far as we have observed, to eastern shippers, who for reasons not at all conclusive contend that such a law would accomplish no good, but would operate to the disadvantage of their interests. The fact that those shippers seem fully satisfied with the present condition of affairs is simply evidence that they enjoy peculiar advantages not possessed by others in the same line, and is not to be seriously considered in face of the estimate, probably not at all exaggerated, that our foreign trade in cattle and meat products could be increased in value fifty million dollars a year if we had a judicious national inspection law immediately enforced. The secretary of agriculture has strongly recommended such a law as absolutely necessary to successful negotiations with European countries for the removal or modification of the restrictions upon the importation of American cattle and meat products, and our ministers to France and Germany have expressed a like opinion. It is largely our own fault that those restrictions exist, and the only remedy is to be found in a system of thorough national inspection which will deprive foreign governments of all excuse for claiming that our meats cannot safely be used.
Owing to the conspicuous positions occupied by the members in municipal affairs, they are enabled to give patrons inside rates in the jobbing line. Marat Is Alter Tammany. Chicago Inter-Ocean. Municipal Halstead says: "New York exceeds all precedents in municipal rascality and mismanagement." Halstead will doubtless be disliked by the army if he continues to talk that way.
Democratic Greeting to Governor Hill. St. Louis Telegraph. The Republic will do its best to secure Mr. Hill the undivided attention of the west if he will use his knowledge of the slum politics of New York to give accurate details concerning the trading and treachery by which the national democracy is defeated in the political combination which makes everything depend on two or three wards in New York city. Otherwise, he might as well save his railroad fare.
National Backbone. It is understood that in the diplomatic intercourse between our country and Great Britain, the representative of the latter has invariably used the expression, "her majesty expects," in stating his proposition. The formula of our state department has been, "the president ventures to hope." The present administration has violated this precedent. Mr. Blaine writes, "the president expects." The change in the diplomatic ministry may perhaps produce a change in the attitude of the British government toward ours, so that by and by such expressions as those of the English will cease.
A Good Word for Thyayer. Omaha Sun. Few men have been subjected to more outrageous abuse and censure than Governor Thyayer. But there are hosts of people in Nebraska who recognize his great worth as a man, his ability as an executive and his great services to the state and nation.

Governor Thyayer stands at the head of Nebraska governors, and equals, at least, any governor of any other state in the interest he takes in the welfare of his people. He is always timely in moving and acting for their interests and protection as he quarantined the cattle plague; for calling for rates so as to enable farmers to ship their corn with at least a little profit, and in many other ways that cannot be mentioned in a brief article. When the people of the northwest were overrun by outrages and outlawry, Governor Thyayer did not tarry in an easy chair in cosy parlors and dictate proclamations from hearsay and current rumors, but he went out once where the outrages and lynchings were done and saw and talked common sense to the people. And when law and order was restored, the interests of the border settlers and those good citizens and that of the state were subserved. And no, recently, learning that the settlers in the extra remote western part of the state were suffering from destitution, he went out there to see and learn if any of his people needed bread and the necessities of life. He visited several counties, riding over two hundred and fifty miles by stage. He saw the people at their homes and learned beyond a doubt that the rumors of destitution out there were false; that the people needed aid, but were amply able to take care of themselves.
Governor Thyayer is a model governor, and the people, especially the farmers, should stand by him as a solid friend, one not only able but willing to stand by them in any emergency.
And the press of the papers, and the politicians who, through envy and pure meanness, slander and abuse the governor without stint or a conscience, should be rebuked most effectively by every citizen. The farmers and other laboring classes will look in vain for a man to fill his gubernatorial shoes, unless the silly "third term" objections are overcome for the people's benefit and they again take John M. Thyayer.
Wholly Uncalled For. Kearney Valley Times. It seems to be popular with a certain class of papers to insert in almost every issue of their sheets some mean little fling at Governor Thyayer about the extra session. This is not only getting very stale, but is wholly uncalled for. Whatever may be said of Governor Thyayer, it cannot be denied that he has been more of a common people's governor than any governor the state has ever had, and it is not flatter that every man who wishes to be funny should cost these people at one of the oldest citizens of Nebraska, whose services as a soldier and a statesman the people recognize.

THE UNION LABOR PARTY.
Proceedings of the Conference Held at Lincoln Yesterday,
THEY FAVOR AN EIGHT HOUR LAW,
A Motion to Insert a Prohibition
" " Plan in the Resolutions
Promptly Set Timing Upon
Capital City News.
Lincoln, Neb., June 25. [Special to The Bee.] The union labor party held a conference at Red Ambassador hall this afternoon.
Three hundred and twenty-five delegates from various parts of the state handed in their credentials; but just ninety-eight present.
L. N. Chamberlain of Stromsburg, chairman of the state committee of the union labor party, called the convention to order. The temporary organization resulted in the election of Allen Booth of Douglas county as chairman and J. H. Craddock of Lancaster county as secretary. When Booth took the chair, he stated that the time would come when the producing class must find means to remedy the evils existing in our state government, and if the men elected to office should play them false, that the hemp was growing that would hang them.
William McKeelgan of Red Cloud made a short speech, the tenor of his remarks being that the time had come when the labor organizations demanded a secret ballot system and a monetary system that would give the people money. He was opposed to the sugar ownership of land.
After a short speech by L. N. Chamberlain of Stromsburg, J. E. Colby of Washington county made a long speech in which he favored the making of gold, silver, and greenbacks for legal tender.
Mr. John H. Powers, president of the state alliance and vice president of the national alliance, was called for. He said that he represented between 60,000 and 70,000 people. That the organization he represented was distinctly a political organization. He asked those present to join with the alliance in its work.
George Lynn, a lawyer from Hastings, said that he had been a prohibitionist since 1850. He insisted that those who produce the wealth of the country should enjoy it. He said he and Mr. J. B. Koch had done a great deal of work in the publication of the labor paper, Our Own Opinion, and in other lines for the labor interest and that they were deserving of some of the money of the country as a fair return.
The report of the committee on credentials was then adopted. On motion of ex-Governor David Butler, the temporary organization was made permanent.
L. N. Chamberlain then addressed the delegates saying that he knew the minds of the people before him; that this class of people were inexperienced; that if any of them were asked to come to Lincoln to attend a convention, they were liable to ask if Lincoln was in Nebraska. If one is asked to contribute a penny to the cause, he will pinch the penny and keep it. The speaker said that he had worked for the party for a year, that his family had somehow got something to eat, but he had received nothing for his services. He spoke in a belittling manner of the antimonopoly republican convention, dubbing it "the Leese-Kosowator-Keckley affair," and attempted to ridicule the action of Governor Tenny in revoking the call for a special session of the legislature. He praised the "Journal of the Knights of Labor" and urged his audience to subscribe for this paper. His closing sentence was: "I have labored as earnestly as God has given me strength to get you together. Now do something."
Ex-Governor Butler moved that Chamberlain be re-elected as chairman of the state committee for the ensuing year.
Chamberlain then jumped up and said: "Taffy don't feed the babies. If you go along the principles I have proclaimed, I will go with you. If not, I will not."
Mr. Maxwell of Lincoln then arose and expressed considerable surprise that Governor Butler should make such a motion. He did not know that the meeting was of the union labor political party. He supposed that the representatives present were here on invitation and could not vote on the re-election of Mr. Chamberlain or be responsible for the same.
"What did you come here for!" angrily asked Chamberlain.
Maxwell paid no attention to the query and Chamberlain asked the same question three more times, adorning it each time with some exclamation.
Chamberlain then moved that Maxwell be excused from voting and the chairman attempted to put the question without a second, but was called to order.
S. J. Kent of Lincoln then arose and said he came not as a politician, but as a member of the carpenters' union to represent them in independent political action, and that he wanted to know before he voted if the principles advocated by the carpenters' union were to be incorporated in the resolutions adopted by the delegation present.
Mr. McCord of Valley then insisted that a series of resolutions be first adopted instead of attempting to club the delegates into voting before any definite understanding had been agreed upon.
On motion of Mr. Craddock, the following resolutions adopted by the national convention of the Knights of Labor at St. Louis were adopted:
1. That we demand the abolition of national banks and the substitution of legal tender currency in lieu of national banks notes, standing in sufficient volume to do the business of the country on a cash system; relating the amount issued on a per capita basis as the business interest of the country demands; and that all indebtedness be paid by the government in legal tender in payment of all debts, both private and public.
2. Time was tumult that congress shall pass such laws that undoubtedly prevent individual interests in foreign systems of agriculture and mechanical productions, proposing; establishing a prominent system of procedure in trials such as shall ensure timely conviction and imposing heavy penalties, shall have the most perfect compliance with the law.
3. That we demand the free and unlimited coinage of silver.
4. That we demand the passage of laws prohibiting the alien ownership of land, and that we take early action to enforce laws to obtain all lands now owned by aliens and syndicates; and that all lands now held by railroads and other corporations in exemption of such as is actually used and made by them be reclaimed by the government and held for actual settlers only.
5. Upholding in the constitution equal rights to all and special favors to none, we demand that taxation, national or state, shall not be used to build up one class at the expense of another. We believe that the money of the country should be kept as much as possible in the hands of the people, and hence we demand that all revenues, national, state or county, shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the government, economically and honestly administered.
6. That congress issue a sufficient amount of fractional paper currency to facilitate exchanging through the medium of the United States mint.
7. That the means of communication and transportation shall be controlled by and operated in the interests of the people, as is the United States postal system.
And it is further agreed, in order to carry out these objects, that we will support only honest men as can be reasonably expected to enact these principles into statute law, uninfluenced by party caucus.
Mr. S. J. Kent then offered the following resolutions:
Also that the formation of a state oligarchy law on the state bank.
Also that we will only support candidates as will pledge themselves to vote for the Australian ballot law adapted to our wants.
Also that we are in favor of women's suffrage, both state and national, as a right and not a privilege.
These resolutions were also passed.
Ex-Governor Butler then offered the following resolution:
We also demand the passage of a liberal Service pension bill and also that the old soldiers' pay be equal to that of the bondholders.
This brought Chamberlain to his feet, and he wanted to know if there were also to be added resolutions favoring prohibition, Presbyterianism, atheism, and the Darwinian theory. He sarcastically asked if the soldiers' grandchildren were next to be heard from, he made a long speech bitterly opposing the resolution.
Mr. McKleigan then rose forward and took Governor Butler the following question:
"Is it right to pay the bondholders in coin?"
"No, sir," said Butler, "but we may as well light the devil with fire!" After the loud laugh that followed had subsided, Butler asked:
"Mr. McKleigan, is it wrong to steal?"
"Yea," was the reply.
"Didn't we steal from the soldiers and wasn't it wrong to do so?"
"Yea," was the reply again.
After some other debate, Mr. McCormack made some spirited remarks declaring that no party can hurt itself by standing for principles.
The question was then put and carried with a shout.
R. W. Maxwell then shouted his vote for the horse urging that a prohibition plank be added to the series of resolutions, but was emphatically set down on by a hurried motion for the adoption of the resolutions as a whole. This prevailed.
A motion was then made to proceed to put in nomination a state ticket.
W. P. Knox of Broken Bow took the platform, claiming to voice the sentiments of 40,000 farmers, members of the union labor party and Knights of Labor, begged the delegates not to put a ticket in nomination until after the other political parties had brought out their candidates.
At the close of his speech, the motion was put and defeated by a vote of 8 to 22.
J. D. Chamberlain was then elected chairman of the state central committee.
Mr. Cradlock then read the declaration of principles and popular call for a people's state convention prepared by Mr. Burroughs of the farmers' alliance.
Mr. P. L. Lotus then offered this motion: Resolved, That the chairman of the convention appoint a committee of three to confer with the secretaries of the state assembly of the Knights of Labor and farmers' alliance and in conjunction with them call an independent state convention.
This brought out a hot discussion, a number of Knights of Labor and alliance men charging the union labor men with a disposition to run actors.
Chamberlain then took the stand and made a long speech urging unity of action, urging above all a Union labor party. He declared that the Knights of Labor are children of the union labor party, that they had just got their eyes open and now they wanted to run the thing.
Ex-Governor Butler then made a speech declaring that a man who becomes a Knight of Labor, an alliance man, and declares that he is either a democrat or a republican at the same time is either half-baked or not yet dry behind the ears. "If," said he, "you put a lot of republicans on your state ticket, I will take the stump and vote against the dead-beats."
Mr. O. E. Hall made a speech echoing the sentiments of Butler.
Leighton's motion was then voted down.
On motion of ex-Governor Butler, M. H. Goltry of Washington county was re-elected secretary of the state central committee.
Mr. Craddock then moved that the old state central committee remain as it is. There was some kick about Craddock being a member of the union labor party, but ex-Governor Butler declared he was all right, and the motion was carried.
The conference then adjourned subject to the call of the chairman of the state central committee.
In Tucson.
At present the turners own the city of Lincoln and the merchants and other citizens are vying with each other to make the stay of the visitors a pleasant one. The great turners' parade occurred this morning and was an imposing and splendid spectacle that surpassed the crowds gathered along the streets to witness it. The major portion of the business houses were decorated with flags, combinations of the national colors, and banners bearing the words "Putsch, Freud, Stark, Treu," which so fittingly describes the turner societies and the individual members. The procession paraded all the principal streets in the city.
The first in line was a platoon of mounted police. The Lincoln military band was next in line and was followed by company I of the state militia. The lady turners from Fremont, sixteen in all, followed. In order then came the boys, who were constantly cheered along the line of march. The members of the various turner societies who are not active turners were next in line, and the Lincoln branch of the Irish National league and a band were at the terminus of the procession.
WESTERN UNIVERSITY.
The Nebraska Wesleyan university closed its first year today, and the graduating exercises that took place this forenoon were held in the presence of an assembly that took the capacity of the building to its fullest extent. The attendance during the year has been large, which is a very flatteringly beginning. Tonight Chancellor Creighton held a levee at his residence adjoining the campus.
This afternoon a meeting of the board of trustees was held. One question that received attention from the board was the expediency of establishing a military department. If this is done, a Nebraska graduate of West Point will no doubt be identified with it.
Mr. Craig, who was a large owner of Dundee Place, Omaha, lately deceased, left a bequest of $25,000, to the university, to be paid upon the compliance of the trustees with certain conditions.
It is proposed to extend a boulevard to the university, distant three miles from Lincoln.
Light of way has been secured through all
Intending properly except the State university farm. The regents are in favor of the plan, but as the title is vested in the state it will require an act of the legislature, and the next session will no doubt be asked to take action thereon.
STATE VETERANS' ASSOCIATION.
The State Veterans' association met at the state house at a o'clock this afternoon for the purpose of taking united action in regard to pension matters and other affairs relating to old soldiers. There was quite a large turnout of veterans and the session was held in representative hall. Secretary D. C. Werk of Seward called the meeting to order. B. A. Fletcher of Franklin County was elected temporary chairman. Forty counties were found to be represented.
The following resolution was passed:
Resoluslons, That the soldier and sailors of Nebraska in convention assembled hereby extend their congratulations to Senator Ingraham of Kansas for his brave words in favor of ample compensation to the old soldiers of the union and that this resolution, with "God bless you," be sent to him by telegraph at once.
CITY NEWS AND NOTICES.
A peddler named Iman Klehmist was arrested today at the instigation of F. King of David City. Mr. King charges Klehmist with having sold a span of horses and a carriage on which King held a mortgage.
Emile Paine was arrested and thrown into jail today for refusing to obey the command of an officer to move on in compliance with the order of a policeman while Paine was looking at the Turner parade.
PROHIBITION OR HIGH LICENSING.
The Great Debate at Beatrice July 5 and 7.
Mr. S. S. Green, secretary of the Beatrice Chautauqua assembly, has the following for publication:
There will be a Joint debate on the question of "Prohibition vs. High License" at the Beatrice Chautauqua assembly, beginning at 8 a.m., July 5, and ending in the afternoon of July 7.
Samuel Dickie, chairman of the prohibition national committee, and Rev. Sam Small will debate prohibition.
Hon. Edward Rosewater, editor of The Breeze, and Hon. John L. Webster of Omaha will argue for high license.
Criticism of the Current Events in Bulgaria.
VIENNA, June 15. [Special Cablegram to The Breeze.] It is reported here that Prince Ferdinand, ruler of Bulgaria, has in a sudden and mysterious manner started from Sofia for a foreign tour via Varna and Bucharest. His visit here, it is stated, is connected with the critical position in which Bulgaria is placed and the weakening of the Tsanbuloff ministry by the resignation of Dr. Stransky from the ministry of foreign affairs.
Somethings are in the Wind.
HALIFAX, N.S., June 25. [Special Telegram to The Breeze.] It is believed here that orders of the highest importance must have been received, as the extraordinary activity prevailed all day yesterday in the dockyard at the north end of the harbor. All the men-of-war now there are being victualed and coaled as rapidly as possible. Ammunition cars were also busy all day transferring powder from the big magazine under Wellington barracks to the yard this morning an engineer and a torpedo corps were in a steam launch buoying the harbor channel between Churchill and George's Island.
THE AURELIAN TEETH.
Cleopatra's bones are for sale. They are valued at $50,000. This shows how times have changed the value of things. Cleopatra once threw herself away for one man.
"Say yes" should be final.
How with all my heart. Then the next time I propose you must say yes.
Were you ever crazy with love? Jim, yes, indeed. Jack, what cured you? Jim, Marriage.
Penelope will be made this way. In the same old way. The girl holds the lemon and the fellow does the squeezing.
Asking papa is a court of appeal. Love at first sight and a runaway match us a supreme court.
"Hammock dresses" are announced for summer wear. Something a girl can slip out of easily, we presume.
There is a girl in New York who has a record of living feet four inches in the standing high jump. Her accomplishment must be handy when there is a mouse around.
Gold gentleman (from head of the stairs at a late hour): Clara, I think you and that young man have talked enough for one evening. Miss Clara: All right, pa. We won't say another word.
Backward Suitor: I don't know what to make of you.
She: Please don't make an old maid of me, whatever you do.
Father Clara: What game were you playing when I looked in the parlor last night? Clara: Hide and seek. Father: What was the hissing for? Clara: Oh, that was the duty on the hide.
Amy: Mr. Dolly called yesterday morning before I was quite dressed and I talked to him for live minutes without waiting to be asked.
Mabel (horrified): What?
Amy: Oh, don't be alarmed. He called over the telephone: "There seems to be a number of weddings this month." Then, turning to Miss Caroline, "When will I be invited to yours?"
"Why announced an invitation?" she asked, with downcast eyes and mantling cheek.
WAS THE SINKING OF A SHIP? Theories Regarding the Death of Salvador's President.
New York, June 23. [Special Telegram to The Breeze.] Was the president of Salvador, Colonel Menendez, who died suddenly on Sunday night at the conclusion of a ballet, poisoned? This is the conjecture of a well-known Central American, who said today to a reporter: "I think it exceedingly likely that poison administered in the food or wine at the Sunday banquet terminated the life of President Menendez. He had many and powerful enemies, who would not scruple to use any means to avenge their injuries at his hands and get rid of him forever. There was the Núñez faction, always large, bold, and active, and there was besides the party opposed to the proposed union of all the Central American states into a federal government, which Menendez favored, a party in a decided minority, it is true, but for that very reason the more desperate. In addition to these are to be reckoned the many private enemies whom Menendez made by his rough and overbearing rule. These facts, taken in connection with the state of government in those countries, the characteristics of the people, and the political traditions which influence them, and there is no difficulty in arriving at the very plausible conjecture that Menendez was poisoned."
Quarantining a Threat Cholera.
MADRID, June 25. [Special Cablegram to The Breeze.] The authorities at all Spanish ports have established ten days' quarantine against vessels arriving from Gandia and Valencia. If there be cholera aboard a vessel the quarantine is extended to fifteen days.

Charles Fairfax nnd Ida Bruce , two of
those attending the picnic , wcro drowned
about ! : ItO o'clock In the afternoon.
from those who witnessed the catastrophe
the particulars have been ascertained.
The recent ruins had changed the usually
tranquil Klkhorn Into a raging torrent. The
latter had overflown Its banks until in many
places the stream had become a quarter of a
mlle wide.
OpiXKtlto the Waterloo picnic grounds n
rope hud been placed ncrois the river to aid
in operating the ferry , nnd above this the
excursionists had boon boating , when sud
denly a boat containing Charles Fairfax.
Ida llnico nnd a girl named Allen was swept
down the stream , and , striking the rope ,
upset.
Fairfax nnd Miss Bruce Immediately sank
and novcr rcnpjKjared , probably being swept
along beneath the sur/aco by an undertow.
The Allen girl , moro fortunate than her
companions , succeeded In grasping the rope
nnd was rescued a few seconds later by n
man named Wheeler and n bold fisherman ,
who had put oil from the bank as soon as the
accident happened.
A fruitless search was made throughout
the remainder of the afternoon for the bodies ,
but night came on nnd the now saddened cx-
curxlontabj were compelled to return to
Omaha , leaving n few of their number nt

Ilnrrlgtni by a young man named Sleeker.
The announcement shocked the llttlo com
munity , where nothing of the kind had been
expected , nt least by the majority of the people
ple who had long known the deceased.
Mr. Knight was about fifty "years of ago
nnd had resided In the neighborhood about
thirty years , having entered upon his land us
a homestead many years ago. Ho was a
brother of B. P. Knight , ox-eommissionor of
Douglas. Ho leaves a widow and four chil
dren seine of whom have grown to manhood
and womanhood. His oldest son , Edward , is
, a civil engineer in the employ of tbo B. & M.
Another son , Arthur , is a member of the
graduating class of the high school. A
daughter , Lucy , graduated ut the high school
last year and has Just finished a post gradu-
nto course at the Peru normal school. Thcro
is besldo a younger child who had been
adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Knight.
Mr. Knight was considered n model
farmer , nnd the farm which ho
worked was considered ono of the
most valuable In' the state. Ho was
in comtortublo financial circumstances , and
there was no cause to bo assigned for the
rash act save mental derangement. The poor
man has of late been noticed to act strangely ,
nnd at times without provocation to bo in
tears. These peculiarities were noticed n
few days ago by Mrs. Sheriff Boyd , who was
paving a visit to the family.
Coroner Ilnrrigan hold an inquest at the
house yesterday afternoon. The tcstlmouj *
developed the following :
Mr. Knight had been complaining for some
tlmo of Hovcro pains in his head and was vnry
B despondent. His crop had not been as pros
perous as usual , and the last storm did con-
bldcmlilo dnmnco. Ho was frequently in
tears and acted hi a peculiar manner at
times.
His condition was attributed to an attack
of the la grlppo last winter , but us ho had a
similar attack of despondency about n year
I , ago there seems to bo no connection with the
la grippe. Au undo of Mr. Knight's , on his
I mother's side , committed suicide before the
r. family moved to Nebraska from Mnssnouu-
suits ,
r.E. Mr. Knight was fifty-seven years old last
December , and was n kind husband and an
indulgent father. No family difficulties had
E. marred the peaceful married llfoof the happy
family.
Yesterday morning Knight arose earlier
than usuid after n restless night and wont out
of the house , About 0 o'clock the youngest
sou , Arthur , aged about twenty-ono years ,
went to the barn with the hired man , C. Shop-
liord , to food the stock.
Young Knight remained below while Shop-
hoi d wont into the mow for some hay. As ho
climbed up ho saw Mr. Knight standing , as ho
thought , near the hay. Another glance , however -
over , showed the truth and ho Jumped down
again to toll young Knight. Ho then Jumped
on a homo and fiew to the nearest neighbor ,
Frank H. Hibbard , a brothcr-lu-lnw of the
older Knight. Hibbnrd at once started for
the scene , whllo Shepherd continued on his
way to Ilruwster's.
Mr. Htbbard cut the body down and found
it still warm , but Hfo was extinct Ho went
nt once to the house nnd broke the naws to
Mrs. Knight , who was completely prostrated
by the shock and yesterday afternoon was in
rr a sorlous condition.
r The daughter , Lucy K. , aged nineteen , who
returned from Peru , lud. , last Thursday ,
where she in normal
00) had taken n courio
training , was also completely prostrated.
to * The oldest son , Kuwaiti , who is in the
101 Black Hills with a surveying party , was tclo-
grnptuxl ycsUmlay morning nnd la expcclcd

until ho comod.
b The neighbors nnd friends of Mr. Knight
; V.ero all of the opinion that there was no

Just prior to the adjournment of the United
States circuit court at noon Tuesday Judge
Dundy announced from the bench the death
nt St. Joseph of Hon. Gcorgo W. MeCrary , for
five years Judge of the federal circuit court
for the Nebraska circuit , nnd upon motion of
n member of the bar , appointed Hon. J. M.
Woolworth , Hon. John L. Webster , Judge
Gcorgo W. Ambrose , Hon. John D. Howe
nnd Judge W. K. Kelly a committee to draft
resolutions In memory of him.
Upon the convening of court at 10 o'clock
yesterday morning , after the transaction of
some necessary business , Chancellor Wool-
worlh , chairman of the commiltoc , arose and
presented the following resolutions :
Ilcsolvctl , That the announcement mndo
yesterday from the bcnuli of the death of the
Hon. Ooorso W. McOrary brings to the mem
bers ot the court and of Its oar a pursonul
grlnf.
Ills character endeared him to each
one of us. Ills simplicity , gravity
and dignity shown In Bound and
lionlthy moral principles , asserted nnd
vindicated with emphasis on all lit occasion *
and especially in tin : RontluriiKts and kindly
charities of social Intercourse , always deeply
impressed tlioso who were ndmltti-d to his fof-
hnvhlilp , und will hurcaftur romalu to us our
Inspiring and elevating Influence.
Unsolved. That in this melancholy event
the republic lias lost a loyal servant. His em
inent cnroor In the publlo Horvlco best attests
bis abilities. During his tlirco terms In con-
Kross ho attained , easily iind by reason oT his
unalilod abilities , a position ot commanding
Inllucncc. Ho was advanced from
that station to a .seat among the
ministers ot state. At last ho came
to the prc.it olllco of magistracy ,
In which wo best know him. Such n career of
publichurvlco lias boon trodden by no man
upon whom the highest gift of Intellect and
churuclur have not been bestowed by the
Creator.
Itusolvcd , That the annals of the court have
boon Illubtrnted by the natno und Mir-
vlcus of Judge SloCriry. : Ho brought
to the bench an unlmpusslonecl deliber
ate and resolute sense of Justice which
could bo perverted uy no blandishment of
flattery or Intimidated by no four of great
powers. Ho was diligent In his duties , patient
In hearing counsel and deliberate In ruachlng
conclusions , clear , direct , pursplciious and
convincing in dollvurlng his judgments , und
ho added at times now Illustrations to the
gioat principles of our jurisprudence.
Resolved , That to tlioso who wcro nearer to
him thttn nil ul < o on earth , with great respect
and due icscrve wo tcndorour blnccio sympa
thies.

Without comment Mr. Woolworth moved
that the resolutions bo spread upon the rec

CASS SOHOOIj.
A. Structure Which Is Beliifj En-
croaolicd Upon by Unsliio.ss.
In 1830 , when the old frame buildings were
torn down and the eight-room brickstiucturo
was erected upon the silo now occcupied by
Iho Cass school , it was thought the building
was sufficiently large to accommodate for
many years the pupils of that dlslrict. But
such was not the case , because three years
later the school was crowded and two rooms
known as the St. Barnabas school were
rented. Since that time Ihoy have been oc
cupied by the pupils of the seventh and eighth
grades.
During the past two years , business has
encroached upon the territory tributary to
the school and residences of the school pat
rons have been removed to make way for
them. As a conseiuoncc , manufacturing in
stitutions , stores , warehouses and railroad
trades arc almost within n stono's throw of
the school house upon every side.
This has had its oltoct ujwn the attendance
because in 1SS3 the enrollment was 504. In
183U it dropped to Vft , while during the past
year the total enrollment has boon only 403.
The teachers , Miss Grace Wilbur , Mary E.
Slmonds , Ncllio Betmct , Annie I. GillLs , Hattie -
tie E. Slmonds , Lilllo M. Wilbur , Cora B.
Prtitt , Isabella Doyle , Hattlo M. Duncan and
Marv A. Frazlor are among Iho loading cdu-
caters of the city. That they have given sat
isfaction is evidenced by thu fact that many
have tuught In IhIs school from llvo lo ton
years , Miss Grace Wilbur having held the
position of principal continuously during the
past eight ycUrs.
The children In attendance nro largely
those of mechanics and laborers ! Ki being
the children of laborers , t0 ! of builders and
contractors , i)3 ) of machinists , 111 of manufac
turers and ' . ' 0 of railroad employes , while the
others nro children of tradesmen and others
engaged in various Hues of business.
The nativity of the llltlo ones is largely
American , 8 having boon born in British
America , HI In Great Britain , ill in Ireland ,
13 in Germany , ID In Sweden , 5 In Denmark ,
0 in Norway , U In other foreign countries ,
nnd the others In America , 4'J being natives
of Nebraska.
In thu school the girls outnumber the boys ,
there being 205 of the former und 210 of the
latter.
During the past year ten colored children
have been enrolled nnd ns In other schools of
the city , they nro nblo to cope with their
lighter colon * ! associates in all the brunches
of study taught , excelling In some , especially
in music , for which they seem to have a nat
ural tasto.
Last year the Cass sent a class of eighteen
to the lilgh school , nnd this year a class of
twenty-live has been prepared to pass the
finnl examination.
Ono diniculty that has been experienced
with the teachers has boeu the caring of
"babies , " who have been turned over to Miss
Mary 13. Slmonds , who has charge of the
eighth grade. In this room- there are
nearly fifty of the llttlo ones nun
many of them nro under school ago , Ihutr
mothers preferring to send them to school
rather than IMJ annoyed with thorn about
their homos. Notwithstanding this the lady ,
who is regarded ono of the best primary
teachers in the city , Is equal to the emer
gency and manages the llttlo things In a
manner that is truly astonishing. The first
principles of calisthenics are tmight and thu
drills have been for years something retnnrk-
ablo. Hnrc , too , the rudiments of drawing
are taught , and children of live years draw
from object lessors some excellent pieces.
The banking fad has fastened Itself with a
firm grip upon the Cass school , because ,
since the first day of the present term , the
pupils have deposited nearly $ tW In the sav
ings banks of the city , the desire to accumu
late money soumlng to grow upon the chll-
di-on.
Since the beginning of the lost term the
. .Ivnucomont of the pupils has been very
marked , twenty-live having been recom
mended for special promotion In other
words , each ono of tlioso pupils has buo-
cocdeu lu making up a class , which for pupils
of those tender years Is considered a remurk-
uble thing. ,
As in many of the other schools , n great
deal of attention is paid to music , nnd in tbls
school there Is a number of Uuu vocalists.
Children of five to six years of age have boon
no thoroughly drilled that they are nblo to
ixtul dilfoivtit selections correctly and with
nn case that U astonishing.
The following pupils have been perfect In
attendance this year :
Bertha Hungutc , Albert Krause , seventh
grade ; Camilla Grantncr , fourth grade ; Wal
ter Lcary , Orluude ticibort , lieuo Leader ,
I
third grade { Walter Nichols , Uobort Wiley ,
Otto Grantncr , sffcond grade.
The following pupils nro members of the
eighth B for the high school next September :

PAUIC PIjACE GHADUATKS.
The Snored Heart Acnilcmy Sends
Forth Klght Accomplished Luullcs.
A heavy cloud of sorrow has for the past
month hung over this sanctuary of teaming ,
nnd yesterday afternoon , in its closing ex
orcises , n tone of pathetic sadness was plainly
predominant.
On account of the great bereavement sus-
tnincd in the death of Bishop O'Connor , no
invitations were Issued save to the vicar gen-
'oral , the cathedral clergy and the rector of
Crclghten college.
, The beautiful hall of the academy was In
striking contrast , in its somber drapery , to
its former tasteful and elaborate floral decor
ations.
The first object that attracted the eye was
n life-sized portrait In pastel of the deceased
bishop. It was at the lower end of the hall ,
nnd seemed to bo resting nt the feet of n
beautiful stntuo of the Miidonnn. known nt
the Sacred Heart ns Mater Admlrabllls.
Over both waved six tall , handsome palms ,
which formed n sort of background to the pic
ture , Itself the work of N. F. Potts of this
city. So rcmnrkablo Is the likeness to the
noble prelate Ibo dloccso has lost that ,
for the moment , OHO was startled
by the illusion , but the spell was
soon broken by the presence of the dark
memorials of death everywhere visible. The
draped and vacant chair of him who , for the
first tlmo since the foundation of the ucademy
In. 1887 , was not thcro in person to bless and
crown the scholastic labors of his beloved
children , told Iho same sad story. Light
mourning drapery-took the place of the usual
array of cholco plants and flowers that were
wont to make of the apartment a veritable
bower of fragrant loveliness.
The pupils were black sashes over their
white dresses and black gloves oven the
dainty llttlo crogrammea , bordered in black
nnd silver , wore eloquent tributes to hiui
whoso memory they honored.
The exorcises wcro very short , the chief
feature being the conferring of the highest
literary honors on ho eight graduates , some
of whom have followed the fortunes of the
Sacred Heart slnco its advent in Omaha.
They nro :
Miss MeCrcary , one of its three first pupils
who , lost year , won the gold medal for
music. ' Miss Lowe , the valedictorian , daugh
ter of General W. W. Lowe of this city , who
was so fortunate as to carry off the essay
modal which is annually awarded for the
host English composition. Miss Huncy
Ottis merited the Christian doctrine medal
which the late lamented bishop presented
every year ns his own gift , lo the pupil most
proficient in the study of religious dogma nnd
the evidences of Christianity. Her sister ,
Mis > s Nora Ottis , both of Humphrey , Neb. ,
has achieved great excellence in art , und re
ceived , besides her graduating honors , the
prize for cxcuiplarv conduct , a. sumptuous
quarto volume , richly bound nnd illustrated.
Miss Kntio Crcighton , second daughter of Mr.
J. D. Crcighton of ihis city , read the beauti
ful "In Momoriam" tribute to the memory of
the bishop , and received the gold medal for
lady-like deportment. Miss O'Kcofo ' who bos
passed four years nt the ncadcmyls u niece of
Mayor Gushing , and is distinguished for her
varied accomplishments. Miss Stcphcnson ,
daughter of Mr. James Stephcnson of this
city , won , besides a medallion for deport
ment , the gold medal for success in the study
of the Ficnch language. Miss Leo of Fre
mont , Neb. , was a graduate of the high
school of that city , but finding her education
Incomplete , entered the regular course at
Park Place which has bestowed on her
its highest honors.

The memory of thu Just bhall bo eternal. Vs.
"Tho Speeding Arrow nnd the Divided
Air" was the suggestive thought upon which
the young valedictorian built her able rhetor
ical essay , and u most beautiful analogy skil
fully worked out was the result of her labor.
She referred to the eight young lives which
were that day to go forth , nrrow-llke , on
paths ns rapid ns they nro unknown forth to
aims nnd ends no earthly forethought can
divine. What wish more natural than that
these darts , leaving the quiver this fair Juno
day , may exercise their potency for good
alone , and not only picrco the target's eye
themselves , but lu id all who have intercourse
with them to strike the aim and thus iulfll
their destiny.
After the valedictory and n pretty musical
interlude followed the general distribution of
premiums , These wcro valuable and costly
books of which a largo number of pupils ro-
ccivcd a goodly share.
Miss Pundt was awarded the prize for
success In all her studies , Miss McShano the
gold modal for music , Miss A. Mullen the
prize for politeness amongst the juniors and
Miss Mover for perfect order.
"The Palms Across Iho Klvor" was a most
touching and beautiful tribute to thu memory
of htm whom the pupils of Park Place so
Justly called their friend , Iheir father. The
fair speaker , who for years has experienced
the kindness and paternal interest of the
bishop , draw a telling picture of a band of
pilgrims pressing through the Holy Lund.
Ono of them has gone far in advance of his
companions and , crossing Israel's sacred
stream before them , has found rest under the
palm trees. Ho looks back at the wayfarers
painfully wending their way to the river's
brink. Ho smiles encouragement and waves
a white signal of cheer from the broad
branches of victory. The travelers call a
halt. They estimate the distance that sepa
rates them from him. They pause awhile to
ponder on the Journey stretching before
them across the plain and on the friend
awaiting them. Such a pause arrested the
steps of these favored children on the day
when , in other years , the mild volco that was
over ready to applaud their simple successes
could reach them only from the
distant shore. "But his memory lives
and will ever llvo In the an
nals of Park Place , the tear-dlmmcd
eyes of Ids children will see him beyond the
fust rolling river under the palms with God. "
A fitting close to thu refined nnd clogant
prograimuo was the the solemn nnd beautiful
trio nnd chorus , "Thy Will bo Done. " The
Instrumental muslu was spirited iu character.
emphatic nnd heart-stirring in execution und
of a kind that must bo hoard with the under
standing ,
The art exhibition , Including about seventy
pieces of excellent work In crayon , pencil ,
water colors und oil was very creditable to
thu gifted young artists who , without detri
ment to their studies In the regular course ,
found tlmo to cultivate the lighter accom
plishments with such marked success.

Waller Besant.
THE QUEEN OF TABLE ; WATERS./ /
Witl.in less than a year three different Judges have
granted Injunctions protecting the well-known Yellow
APOLLINARIS LABELS from infringement.
The last defendant used an oval yellow label and a yellow
neck label on Mineral Water , and employed eminent Counsel
who vigorously defended the suit. The Supreme Court ,
when granting the injunction , expressed the opinion that
bottles of other Mineral Water put up with orange coloured
labels may well be mistaken for Apollinaris at a short
distance and without close inspection.

Twin of Mrs. Fairfax and Mrs. Bruce Mourn
Loved Ones Drowned.
MRS. KNIGHT BEWAILS A HUSBAND'S LOSS
The McConnell Termination of a Colorful Holiday at Elkorn and the
Had Cloning It * a Model
Farmer's Life.
There is a weeping mother at 603 North
Twenty-fifth Street and a stricken willow at
the corner of Thirty-eighth and CMS, while
two dead bodies lie somewhere among the silt
and the sand bar at the bottom of the Elkhorn
river, near the beautiful picnic grounds at Waterloo,
Tuesday the colored Masons of Omaha
gave their annual picnic and in the early
morning, a special train of several coaches
bearing nearly 200 colored people left the city
for the grove mentioned. Everybody was
happy and a jollier crowd never left Omaha
for a day's outing.
They returned at 11:15 at night laden
with sorrow, and leaving behind them dead
two of the jolliest of their party.
Charles Fairfax and Ida Bruce, two of
those attending the picnic, were drowned
about 1:30 o'clock in the afternoon.
From those who witnessed the catastrophe
the particulars have been ascertained.
The recent rains had changed the usually
tranquil Elkhorn into a raging torrent. The
latter had overflown its banks until in many
places the stream had become a quarter of a
mile wide.
Opinions at the Waterloo picnic grounds a
rope had been placed across the river to aid
in operating the ferry, and above this the
excursionists had been boating, when suddenly
a boat containing Charles Fairfax, Ida
Bruce, and a girl named Allen was swept
down the stream, and, striking the rope,
upset.
Fairfax and Miss Bruce immediately sank
and never resurfaced, probably being swept
along beneath the surface by an undertow.
The Allen girl, more fortunate than her
companions, succeeded in grasping the rope
and was rescued a few seconds later by a
man named Wheeler and a bold fisherman,
who had put off from the bank as soon as the
accident happened.
A fruitless search was made throughout
the remainder of the afternoon for the bodies,
but night came on and the now saddened excursionists were compelled to return to
Omaha, leaving a few of their number at
Waterloo to continue the search.
The wife of Fairfax, the man who was
drowned and the mother of the girl, and her
sister also, who came here a few days ago
from Kansas to spend her summer vacation,
she being a teacher in the public schools of
that state, are completely prostrated with
grief.
John Bruce, a brother of the girl, went to
Waterloo yesterday to assist in the search
for the bodies.
Ida Bruce was a bright girl. She was one
of the graduating class of the high school
last year and received high tribute for the
excellent essay she read on the defense of
St. Michael by Tousaint L'Ouverture.
Throughout her scholastic instruction here
she did well and graduated with honors. She
possessed much elocutionary ability and a
short time before she met death she had assisted in entertaining her companions with
recitations.
Fairfax was a porter on the Pullman system,
running east from here on the B. & M.
He was about thirty-five years of age, was
popular among his fellows and stood well
among all the colored people of Omaha.
The body of Miss Bruce was recovered
late yesterday afternoon. It was found
three-quarters of a mile from where it went
down, in a pile of driftwood, and shipped to
Omaha on Union Pacific passenger train No.
8. A force of men are dragging the river for
the body of Charles Fairfax, the other unfortunate.
The river is rising rapidly.
Suicide of A. B. Knight.
Yesterday morning between 4 and 5 o'clock
the body of A. B. Knight was found suspended with a rope around the neck from a beam in his barn on his farm at Irvington,
ten miles from this city.
The discovery was made by one of Mr.
Knight's farm hands and immediately communicated to the dead man's relatives and friends. Word was also brought to Coroner Harrigan by a young man named Sleeker.
The announcement shocked the little community,
where nothing of the kind had been expected,
at least by the majority of the people who had long known the deceased.
Mr. Knight was about fifty years of age
and had resided in the neighborhood about
thirty years, having entered upon his land as
a homestead many years ago. He was a
brother of B. P. Knight, ex-commissioner of
Douglas. He leaves a widow and four children,
among whom have grown to manhood and womanhood. His oldest son, Edward, is
a civil engineer in the employ of the B. & M.
Another son, Arthur, is a member of the
graduating class of the high school. A
daughter, Lucy, graduated at the high school
last year and has just finished a post graduate course at the Peru normal school. There is beside a younger child who had been
adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Knight.
Mr. Knight was considered a model
farmer, and the farm which he
worked was considered one of the
most valuable in the state. He was
in comfortable financial circumstances, and
there was no cause to be assigned for the
rash act save mental derangement. The poor
man has of late been noticed to act strangely,
and at times without provocation to be in
tears. These peculiarities were noticed a
few days ago by Mrs. Sheriff Boyd, who was
paying a visit to the family.
Coroner Harrigan held an inquest at the
house yesterday afternoon. The testimony
developed the following:
Mr. Knight had been complaining for some
time of severe pains in his head and was very
depressed. His crop had not been as prosperous as usual, and the last storm did considerable damage.
He was frequently in tears and acted in a peculiar manner at times.
His condition was attributed to an attack
of the grippe last winter, but as he had a
similar attack of despondency about a year
ago there seems to be no connection with the
grippe. An uncle of Mr. Knight's, on his
mother's side, committed suicide before the
family moved to Nebraska from Massachusetts.
Mr. Knight was fifty-seven years old last
December, and was a kind husband and an
indulgent father. No family difficulties had
marred the peaceful married life of the happy
family.
Yesterday morning Knight arose earlier
than usual after a restless night and went out
of the house. About 5 o'clock the youngest
son, Arthur, aged about twenty-one years,
went to the barn with the hired man, C. Shepherd,
to feed the stock.
Young Knight remained below while Shepherd went into the mow for some hay. As he climbed up he saw Mr. Knight standing, as he thought, near the hay. Another glance, however, showed the truth and he jumped down again to tell young Knight. He then jumped on a horse and rode to the nearest neighbor,
Frank H. Hibbard, a brother-in-law of the older Knight. Hibbard at once started for
the scene, while Shepherd continued on his
way to Brewer's.
Mr. Hibbard cut the body down and found
it still warm, but life was extinct. He went
at once to the house and broke the news to
Mrs. Knight, who was completely prostrated
by the shock and yesterday afternoon was in
a serious condition.
The daughter, Lucy K., aged nineteen, who
returned from Peru, Neb., last Thursday,
where she had taken a course
in normal school, was also completely prostrated.
The oldest son, Edward, who is in the
Black Hills with a surveying party, was telegraphed yesterday morning and is expected
home tonight. The funeral will not occur
until he comes home.
The neighbors and friends of Mr. Knight
were all of the opinion that there was no
cause for the deed except his health. His
mental health was in the best of condition, as far as
anyone knew, and his farm of 200 acres was
in good shape.
The jury returned a verdict that the deceased consensually died by strangulation during a temporary loss of insanity brought on by sleeplessness, nervous prostration, nervous dyspnea, dullness, blues, cured by Dr. Milo's Nervino. Samples free at Co. & Co.'s, 12th and Douglas.
COURT.
All Action for $600,000 Against C. H. McKilling.
Action identical with that instituted in the federal court a few days ago was commenced in the district court yesterday by the Union Pacific railway company against C. H. McKilling, the ex-purchasing agent of that railroad, an account of whose alleged misdoings has appeared in these columns.
It calls for judgment in the sum of $60,000, and an attachment upon defendant's property. Judge Wakeley rendered two decisions.

THE FEDERAL BARE TRAIL TO THE LATE GEORGE W. MCCRARY.
Just prior to the adjournment of the United States circuit court at noon Tuesday, Judge Dundy announced from the bench the death at St. Joseph of Hon. George W. McCrary, for five years Judge of the federal circuit court for the Nebraska circuit, and upon motion of a member of the bar, appointed Hon. J. M. Woolworth, Hon. John L. Webster, Judge George W. Ambrose, Hon. John D. Howe, and Judge W. K. Kelly a committee to draft resolutions in memory of him.
Upon the convening of court at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, after the transaction of some necessary business, Chancellor Woolworth, chairman of the committee, arose and presented the following resolutions:
Resolved, That the announcement made yesterday from the bench of the death of the Hon. George W. McCrary brings to the members of the court and of its bar a personal grief.
His character endeared him to each one of us. His simplicity, gravity, and dignity shown in bound and honest moral principles, asserted and vindicated with emphasis on all occasions, and especially in the honesties and kindly charities of social intercourse, always deeply impressed those who were admitted to his friendship, and will bear testimony to our inspiring and elevating influence.
Resolved, That in this melancholy event the republic has lost a loyal servant. His eminent career in the public service best attests his abilities. During his three terms in Congress he attained, easily and by reason of his unbounded abilities, a position of commanding influence. He was advanced from that station to a seat among the ministers of state. At last he came to the present office of magistracy, in which we best know him. Such a career of public service has been trodden by no man upon whom the highest gift of intellect and character have not been bestowed by the Creator.
Resolved, That the annals of the court have been illustrated by the name and merit of Judge McCrary: He brought to the bench an unprejudiced deliberate and resolute sense of justice which could be perverted by no blandishment of flattery or intimidated by no fear of great powers. He was diligent in his duties, patient in hearing counsel and deliberate in reaching conclusions, clear, direct, persuasive and convincing in delivering his judgments, and he added at times new illustrations to the great principles of our jurisprudence.
Resolved, That to those who were nearer to him than all upon earth, with great respect and due reverence, we tender our heartfelt sympathies.
Without comment, Mr. Woolworth moved that the resolutions be spread upon the records of the court, and it was so ordered. Court then adjourned until 10 o'clock this morning in respect to the memory of the dead jurist.

CASS SCHOOL.
A Structure Which Is Being Encroached Upon by Unsuitable.
In 1830, when the old frame buildings were torn down and the eight-room brick structure was erected upon the site now occupied by the Cass school, it was thought the building was sufficiently large to accommodate for many years the pupils of that district. But such was not the case, because three years later the school was crowded and two rooms known as the St. Barnabas school were rented. Since that time they have been occupied by the pupils of the seventh and eighth grades.
During the past two years, business has encroached upon the territory tributary to the school and residences of the school patrons have been removed to make way for them. As a consequence, manufacturing institutions, stores, warehouses, and railroad trades are almost within a stone's throw of the schoolhouse upon every side.
This has had its effect upon the attendance, because in 1883 the enrollment was 504. In 1884 it dropped to 474, while during the past year the total enrollment has been only 403.
The teachers, Miss Grace Wilbur, Mary E. Shabds, Nelio Bellmet, Annie I. Gills, Hattie E. Shabds, Lillie M. Wilbur, Cora B. Prltt, Isabella Doyle, Hattie M. Duncan, and Mary A. Frazier are among the leading educators of the city. That they have given satisfaction is evidenced by the fact that many have taught in this school from five to ten years, Miss Grace Wilbur having held the position of principal continuously during the past eight years.
The children in attendance are largely those of mechanics and laborers, among being the children of laborers, of builders and contractors, of machinists, of manufacturers, and of railroad employees, while the others are children of tradesmen and others engaged in various lines of business.
The nativity of the little ones is largely American, 58 having been born in British America, 31 in Great Britain, 11 in Ireland, 13 in Germany, 10 in Sweden, 5 in Denmark, 10 in Norway, and the others in America, 45 being natives of Nebraska.
In the school, the girls outnumber the boys, there being 205 of the former and 210 of the latter.
During the past year ten colored children have been enrolled and as in other schools of the city, they are able to cope with their lighter complexion associates in all the branches of study taught, excelling in some, especially in music, for which they seem to have a natural taste.
Last year the Cass sent a class of eighteen to the high school, and this year a class of twenty-five has been prepared to pass the final examination.
One difficulty that has been experienced with the teachers has been the caring of "babies," who have been turned over to Miss Mary B. Shabds, who has charge of the eighth grade. In this room there are nearly fifty of the little ones and many of them are under school age, their mothers preferring to send them to school rather than be annoyed with them about their homes. Notwithstanding this, the lady, who is regarded one of the best primary teachers in the city, is equal to the emergency and manages the little things in a manner that is truly astonishing. The first principles of calisthenics are taught and the drills have been for years something remarkable. Here, too, the rudiments of drawing are taught, and children of five years draw from objects lessons some excellent pieces.
The banking fad has fastened itself with a firm grip upon the Cass school, because, since the first day of the present term, the pupils have deposited nearly $1000 in the savings banks of the city, the desire to accumulate money seeming to grow upon the children.
Since the beginning of the school term, the accomplishments of the pupils have been very marked, twenty-five having been recommended for special promotion. In other words, each one of those pupils has succeeded in making up a class, which for pupils of those tender years is considered a remarkable thing.
As in many of the other schools, a great deal of attention is paid to music, and in this school there is a number of good vocalists. Children of five to six years of age have been thoroughly drilled that they are able to execute difficult selections correctly and with an ease that is astonishing.
The following pupils have been perfect in attendance this year: Bertha Hutchinson, Albert Krause, seventh grade; Camilla Grant, fourth grade; Walter Leary, Orville Schrot, Heo Leader, third grade; Walter Nichols, Robert Wiley, Otto Grant, second grade.
The following pupils are members of the eighth grade for the high school next September: Louisa McDonagh, May Miller, Maud Robinson, Ruth Philipson, Agnes McDonagh, Blanche Josselyn, Ida Butts, Bessie Huntington, Bessie Hubert, Nora Emerson, Jessie Godsoe, Anna Christie, Grace Allen, Florence Baker, Lillie Houston, Viola Sawyer, Minnie Ellis, Ira Van Camp, Willard Hughes, Hey Austin, Robert Goodwin, Willard Hancy, Gordon Clark, Robert Hayes.
PARK PLACE GRADUATES.
The Sacred Heart Academy Sends Forth Eight Accomplished Pupils.
A heavy cloud of sorrow has for the past month hung over this sanctuary of learning, and yesterday afternoon, in its closing exercises, a tone of pathetic sadness was plainly predominant.
On account of the great bereavement sustained in the death of Bishop O'Connor, no invitations were issued save to the vicar general, the cathedral clergy, and the rector of Creighton college.
The beautiful hall of the academy was in striking contrast, in its somber drapery, to its former tasteful and elaborate floral decorations.
The first object that attracted the eye was a life-sized portrait in pastel of the deceased bishop. It was at the lower end of the hall, and seemed to be resting at the feet of a beautiful statue of the Madonna, known at the Sacred Heart as Mater Admirabilis.
Over both waved six tall, handsome palms, which formed a sort of background to the picture, itself the work of N.F. Potts of this city. So remarkable is the likeness to the noble prelate that, for the moment, one was startled by the illusion, but the spell was soon broken by the presence of the dark memorials of death everywhere visible. The draped and vacant chair of him who, for the first time since the foundation of the academy in 1887, was not there in person to bless and crown the scholastic labors of his beloved children, told the same sad story. Light mourning drapery took the place of the usual array of choco plants and flowers that were wont to make of the apartment a veritable bower of fragrant loveliness.
The pupils were black sashes over their white dresses and black gloves, even the dainty little programs, bordered in black and silver, wore eloquent tributes to him whose memory they honored.
The exercises were very short, the chief feature being the conferring of the highest literary honors on the eight graduates, some of whom have followed the fortunes of the Sacred Heart since its advent in Omaha.
They are:
Miss McCormack, one of its three first pupils who, last year, won the gold medal for music. Miss Lowe, the valedictorian, daughter of General W.W. Lowe of this city, who was so fortunate as to carry off the essay medal which is annually awarded for the best English composition. Miss Huncy Ottis merited the Christian doctrine medal which the late lamented bishop presented every year as his own gift, to the pupil most proficient in the study of religious dogma and the evidences of Christianity. Her sister, Miss Nora Ottis, both of Humphrey, Neb., has achieved great excellence in art, and received, besides her graduating honors, the prize for exemplary conduct, a sumptuous quarto volume, richly bound and illustrated.
Miss Eulio Creighton, second daughter of Mr. J.D. Creighton of this city, read the beautiful "In Memoriam" tribute to the memory of the bishop, and received the gold medal for lady-like deportment. Miss O'Keefe, who has passed four years at the academy as niece of Mayor Gushing, and is distinguished for her varied accomplishments. Miss Stevenson, daughter of Mr. James Stevenson of this city, won, besides a medallion for deportment, the gold medal for success in the study of the French language. Miss Leo of Fremont, Neb., was a graduate of the high school of that city, but finding her education incomplete, entered the regular course at Park Place which has bestowed on her its highest honors.
The program is as follows:
PART FIRST.
Entrance Indian march (from "Africano"). Meyer
First Piano Miss McCracken and Miss Lowe.
Second Piano Miss Lee and Miss McShane.

Thy Will be Done Vocal Trio and Chorus. H. Durens
Misses E. and C. Creighton, Miss McCracken, Miss Lee, Misses Ellis, King, Minor, Jones, Lonion.
The memory of the Just shall be eternal. "The Speeding Arrow and the Divided Air" was the suggestive thought upon which the young valedictorian built her able rhetorical essay, and a most beautiful analogy skillfully worked out was the result of her labor.
She referred to the eight young lives which were that day to go forth, arrow-like, on paths as rapid as they are unknown forth to aims and ends no earthly forethought can divine. What wish more natural than that these darts, leaving the quiver this fair June day, may exercise their potency for good alone, and not only pierce the target's eye themselves, but in all who have intercourse with them to strike the aim and thus fulfill their destiny.
After the valedictory and a pretty musical interlude followed the general distribution of premiums. These were valuable and costly books of which a large number of pupils received a goodly share.
Miss Pundt was awarded the prize for success in all her studies, Miss McShane the gold medal for music, Miss A. Mullen the prize for politeness among the juniors, and Miss Moyer for perfect order.
"The Palms Across the River" was a most touching and beautiful tribute to the memory of him whom the pupils of Park Place so justly called their friend, their father. The fair speaker, who for years has experienced the kindness and paternal interest of the bishop, drew a telling picture of a band of pilgrims pressing through the Holy Land.
One of them has gone far in advance of his companions and, crossing Israel's sacred stream before them, has found rest under the palm trees. He looks back at the wayfarers painfully wending their way to the river's brink. He smiles encouragement and waves a white signal of cheer from the broad branches of victory. The travelers call a halt. They estimate the distance that separates them from him. They pause awhile to ponder on the journey stretching before them across the plain and on the friend awaiting them. Such a pause arrested the steps of these favored children on the day when, in other years, the mild volume that was over ready to applaud their simple successes could reach them only from the distant shore. "But his memory lives and will ever live in the annals of Park Place, the tear-dimmed eyes of his children will see him beyond the distant shore under the palms with God." A fitting close to the refined and elaborate program was the solemn and beautiful trio and chorus, "Thy Will be Done." The instrumental music was spirited in character, emphatic and heart-stirring in execution and of a kind that must be heard with the understanding.
The art exhibition, including about seventy pieces of excellent work in crayon, pencil, watercolors, and oil, was very creditable to the gifted young artists who, without detriment to their studies in the regular course, found time to cultivate the lighter accomplishments with such marked success.

A World's Fair Exhibition.
Anniston, Nob., June 30. To the Editor of The Bug: I would like to suggest as a part of Nebraska's exhibit at the world's fair the erection of a sod cabin, similar to the rude hills constructed by our early pioneers. Such a feature would be novel and attractive, and at the same time give eastern people some idea of the spirit that prompts the strong young heart of the west.

there is another "9" which has also come to stand in 1908. It is unlike the figure 0 in our dates in the respect that it has already moved up to first place, which
it will permanently remain. It is called the "29" which Arm Wheeler A Wilson Sewing Machine Company endorses for first place by virtue of its superiority over all other
sewing machines at the Paris Exhibition of 1900 where, after a severe contest with the leading inventors of the world, it was awarded the Grand Prize Ribbon to family sewing machines, others on exhibit have received lower awards of gold medals, etc. The French Government also recognized its superiority by the decoration of the Legion of Honor. Mr. Nathaniel Wheeler, President of the company, received the Cross of the Legion of Honor.

The Kai-ly Closing Move.
The early closing fever has broken out
again and Is having its usual run. It Is ot
innmil occurrence and has thus far boon In
variably productive- the s xmo result dls-
ippolntmcnt for the clerks. The move Is
igltntcd iindu paper is circulated. Some of
.he merchants sign It and others refuse. That
s the first sign of trouble. Perhaps the
dealers who want to close carry out their de-
( dres and close ut U or 7 o'clock. Those \yho
tecp open do moro or less business , mid the
early closors get dissatisfied mid open up
iguln , and the great reform movement goes
over for another year.
Then the programme of the year preceding
s ro-ciiactou with the same result. Still the
leiks do not gut discouraged , and go through
ho sumo motions each succeeding season
with great upparcut cujoymcut , uud sociu to
bo very confident of success , M If It was ren
dcred moro certain by previous lallures.
This Is the situation nt the present time
The clerks huvo again donned their wa
paint , ami have united in n light to secure
their nvcnlngs to themselves. They have clr
culatcd their petition and have thus far sc
cured the signatures of about thirty mcr
chants who are willing to lock their doors n
7 o'clock. They have all the boot mid shoe
dealers with ono exception , and that one hot
always been an exception. Ho even persist
in keeping open on Sunday and this causes i
hoxvl among the other shoo men. Nearly id
the dealers agree that evening trade is light
and the clerks urge this , together with ' the
discomfort caused by lengthening out an al
readv long hot day , as a reason why thoj
should bo allowed to sccuio a little enjoy
meat nt Clmutauqun , Fall-mount park oi
Manawa. Whether this year's exertions wll
secure n chungn can only bo conjectures
as yet.
A Hlunltc'H Klcli Strike.
County Recorder W. II. Thomas yesterday
received a letter from his brother , John F.
who Is now In Montana , to the effect that hu
had "struck It rich. " "Jack , " us ho is Tamil-
laily known , went out there several years
ago and secured n claim , hut was not vcr >
favorably impressed with it and sold It. The
claim was afterward sold for Jli.OOO and stll
later for 820,000. In the meantime the first
owner had returned to the Bluffs , arriving
hoio about two years ago , mid accepted a po
sition In the recorder's ofllco. While there
he heard of the rapidly Increasing value o
the property ho had formerly owned mid became -
came Imbued with a deslio to go back there
and try It over again. The result was that a
few months ago ho again headed for Mon
tana. Ho now writes that ho has u claim
that shows up very tlch In gold near the sur
face , and he bus received n flattering offei
from engineers to work It on shares. This ,
however , ho refused , and will work It him
self. Ho thinks ho has struck n bonanza , am :
his friends hero are anxiously awaiting fur

More Motors to Matunra.
Colonel Uccd , manager of the Manawn
motor line , has concluded that what applies
to other street railways all over the country
will also hold good with reference to his road
that is , that the better the service the
greater the travel , and has accordingly made
arrangements to run trains every twenty
minutes , instead of every half hour , as nt
present. The change will bo made on the
first of next month. Trial trips were
made yesterday to see whether or not
the change could bo made without putting on
moro rolling stock , and it was found that it
can bo done satisfactorily by increasing the
speed and thus shortening the running time.
A run was made from Broadway to the lake
in fourteen minutes , including eight stops ,
and this was deemed conclusive proof that a
twenty minute service is practicable
with the number of trains now run
ning. The speed inside the cor
porate limits remains about the
same , and the * gain is made between the
Twenty-sixth avenue siding and the lake. It
is believed that this change will result in in
creasing the travel fully as much as did the
change from an hour to n thirty minute ser
vice. Colonel Heed is ccxtainly cnterpiiaing ,
and his elToits to better accommodate the
public uro deserving of ample financial suc
cess.
AVnntB a Second Divorce.
Mrs. Iru Plainer has filed a petition in the
district couit declaring that her comfort , hap
piness and material wcll-bcii ! < ; depends upon
the severance of the matrimonial bonds that
now bind her to ono of the oiucst residents of
this city. She alleges cruel and inhuman
tieatment mid adultery as the reason why
she bo granted the prayed-for relief.
She wants * jooo alimony and'has already at
tached Platner's homestead property on
Broadway and a ten acre tract in the western
part cf the city. '
This is the second time that tho'couplo
have figured in the divorce couits of this
county A little over a year use they nriived
at the conclusion that double blessedness was
nil a humbug and maiital felicity a myth , and
the couit accommodatingly untied the knot.
Mrs. Plainer seemed & 1,000 and obtained a
judgment against Platncr. This judgment
was never satisfied and now Mra. Plainer
also wants that matter straightened xip. It
is alleged that the first divorce was obtained
through collusion between the parties iutcr-
esicd. the wife easily procuring evidence to
establish the charge of adultery. It was Inti
mated at the time of the second marriage that
Platncr thought his wife secured the best end
of the deal and accordingly brought about the
second maniiigo to get out of paying the sum
awarded by the court. He will try It over
again and see if ho can manage to emerge
thxough the big end of the horn.
Will KeiKiir tlic Dam.
The water in Manawa is not falling , as has
been reported , although there is a break
sixty feet long in the dam , but this is owing
to the fact that the river is now high enough
to hold It there , as it has backed up to the
lake. When the river falls the lake will un
doubtedly keep it company , and no effort will
bo madeto icpair the dam until this occurs ,
as it has been found impracticable to
nmlto icpahs during high water. Such an
attempt was made a few days ago , but the
water cuiiied out the new material as fast as
it was put in. When the water falls , perma
nent repairs will bo made and the dam put in
condition to stand the effects of Hoods , fresh
ets or other high water , and will then bo
jillcil with water from Mosquito creek. There
is plenty of water In the lake at present , and
the steamers experience no difficulty In visit
ing all paits ot it.

THE VETERANS IN THE VAN
They Win the Banner at the State Firemen's Tournament in Plattsburgh, Nebraska.
THEY WERE PERFECTLY IRRESISTIBLE
A Detachment of Omaha Guard men returned to the city, escorting them through the city with victory perched upon their banners. They came, they saw, they conquered, and Spud Farrish here unveiled the trophy. It was the banner awarded to the best performing company at the state firemen's tournament in Plattsburgh, Nebraska, June 20, 1890, inscribed "State Firemen's Tournament, Plattsburgh, Neb., June 20, 1890," in silver letters on a blue field. The border was of silver lace and on the reverse side, old gold, while a silver eagle with outstretched wings perched on the staff.
From the depot up through the city, the order of march was the same as on their departure. First came the red-coated Durants bearing brooms, then the Union Pacific band playing "See the Conquering Hero," and after that came the Durants hose company. After an interval came the veterans, headed by Max Meyer and the Ancient Order of Hibernians band. The central detachment of sixteen men from the Omaha guards, under the command of Lieutenant Mulford, did the graceful thing, as they always do, and were well on hand to greet the conducting heroes. Just before the train arrived, Captain Schwinn arrived and relieved Lieutenant Mulford, and while they waited on the platform, the distinguished appearance and perfect drill of the detachment were the admiration of the spectators. After the Guards came Spud Farrish bearing the trophy of victory, with Steve Melio as a companion, waving the stars and stripes.
The vets were a little the worse for wear, but still gorgeous and flushed with victory. Jim Donnelly, the captain and drillmaster, was as fresh as a daisy and issued his commands like a veteran in battle. Sol Prince and Joe Sheeley were the lieutenants and ably seconded his orders. The front rank, composed of Ed Wittig, Peter Karbagh, H. Berthold, and Frank Himlon, was enough to stir the martial enthusiasm of a fossil, and all the other ranks with their array of white whiskers and politely formed ranks, ably supported it. An enthusiastic veteran waved his broom as if it had been won in a nahikhara charge. It had a gilded handle and was a gift of one of Plattsburgh's fair daughters.
In front of the now Paxton building, the company drew up in single file, facing the sidewalk, while the Guards, after a number of artistic evolutions, took their places behind them. Then the vets cheered the Guards and the Guards cheered the vets and the band played again, and while the vets broke ranks, the Guards were escorted to their armory in high state by the band.
While as a general thing the veterans are visaged with the day, they make two or three complaints. In the first place, they say their wives were compelled to pay an admission fee to the grounds and to the grand stand, something unprecedented, and against which Chief Gulligan entered an amphitheater protest to the gatekeeper. The bookkeeper got noisy and Jack Gilligan interfered, and there was a sort of amateur Donnybrook for a few minutes.
But the Ancient Order of Hibernians band had no opportunity to enter the competition. The whole trouble is used to a rubeish set of deputies on the grounds, and the marshal of the town made a graceful apology which put everybody in good humor again.
Following are the names of those who took part in the tournament: A. J. Simonson, William Shull, J. F. Sheeley, John Examiner, Charles Fischer, Max Meyer, Jim Gilligan, Daniel W. Shull, Ed Maurer, Henry Pundt, Ed Wittig, Sol Prince, Louie Blust, H. Berthold, Joe Tehon, A. P. Hopkins, P. Besen, Charles Schlank, H. Kunda, Aug Vonscheneke, L. Kexschild, J. H. Littichorger, C. V. Gallagher, P. Windheim, F. Schmid, J. J. Donnelly jr., P J Eppen, John A. Mcbride, Harry Gallagher, Frank J. Lonc, M. Hellmann, Aaron Calm, Dr. F. H. Bosters, F P. Hanlon, J. K. Metzler, J. H. Duller, Julius Teitschke, Joseph Hotchkiss, John F. Rehm, A. H. Saner, Phil Dorr, William Mack, W. H. May, Yoniont, Gus Zimmermann, James G. Meacham, Fred Schulte, C. H. Piekens, Owen Mcvin, Chas. Koster, Joe Howies, M. Can, H. Walker.
The members of the Durants were Chas. Fisher, for our part; A. Ingraham, president; S. L. Boyt, secretary; John Willard, treasurer; John Shineberger, Hewitt assistant; Fred Trotter, second assistant. A. Munson, Thos. McMillan, Frank Hines, Frank Irvin, L T. York, Justus Wallace, Hy. Potter, Win. Hudson, Chas. Hudson, James Marse, Charles Stolamier, Lewis Olson, William Edwards, William Carter, James Gibson, and Henry Colemann.
David
Word was received last night that the body of David Moore, the Omaha man who was at Ottawa, Ill., had been shipped to this city. The remains will arrive at 10 o'clock this morning, and will at once be taken in charge by the friends of the deceased and be conveyed to the family residence on North Thirty-third street, near Burt. Services will be held at the residence at 5 p.m., Dean Gardner officiating. The interment will be at Forest Lawn.
At the time of his death, Mr. Moore carried $3,000 of life insurance, which is payable to his widow.
The inspection of
The board of education committee on teachers held a star chamber session last night to consider what teachers should be recommended to the board for re-election. Several members of the board who were not members of the committee and two or three of the new members were also present.
It was intimated that a large number of teachers would be allowed to retire to private life for various reasons.
The board will hold a special meeting Saturday evening to act on the report of the committee on teachers.
Robbed a Saloon.
Burroughs paid George Rumsfeld, the saloon-keeper on North Sixteenth Street, a visit last night. Just after 11 o'clock, business was winding down, Rumsfeld and the bartender were standing in front of the saloon, when some burglars entered by way of the back door and emptied the money drawer, which contained $583. The loss was discovered half an hour later when the saloon was closing for the night.
False Report Circulated.
The report circulated in this city that Miss Paulson, daughter of the late Senator Paulsen, had been sorrowfully injured in a runaway accident in Davenport, Iowa, proves to have been nothing but a rumor. A dispatch to the Times from Davenport last night authenticated that Miss Paulson was unharmed and would return to Omaha next Monday.
Oghiton College Commencement.
Ogburn College closed its thirteenth collegiate year last night under the most favorable circumstances. The college debating society held an "open forum" and decided the question, "Shall the railroads be controlled by the government?" There was much good mileage in the exercises and they closed with a distribution of prizes earned during the year.
A Peculiar Incident to Hall.
2, June. The court at Buntry today sentenced Father Crowley to one month's imprisonment and six more additional in default of bail for good behavior for intimidating a Protestant clergyman at Schull. Officer Sullivan made a vicious haul last night, arresting James Smith, alias Leon Davis, who is wanted at Ottumwa, Iowa, on the charge of rape. Smith is a good-looking mulatto, about twenty-three years of age. There is a reward of $100 on his head. He answers the description of the Iowa criminal and will be held until the officers have been notified, arrive.
Fatal Head-on Collision.
Evansville, Ind., June 23. A Vincent special says a head-end collision occurred between the Evansville & Terre Haute freight trains near Purcell's station last night. Engineer Lowhill and an unknown tramp, who was riding a freight car, were instantly killed. Both engines and a number of cars were wrecked.
Fighting Fires.
The fire alarm turned in from box 31 last evening called No. 2 to the alley on Webster Street, between Twenty-second and Twenty-third, to extinguish a blaze in a pile of rubbage that had been set on fire by a number of mischievous boys. There was no damage.
The protracted ringing of the fire alarm at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon startled the people in every portion of the city. There was no fire. It was simply the department testing a number of the new boxes which have recently been put in place.

The Sunday closing case against Fritz Bernhardi, which was set for yesterday morning in the superior court before Judge McClee, was continued until 8 o'clock this morning. The Sunday closing barbers are decidedly worthy over the result of Bernhardi's trial before Justice Schuiv. and allege all kinds of things. They claim that the jury was a cut-and-dried affair, and that the only reason that the case was tried there was in order to help out the defendant. They even go so far as to charge Constable Covalt with collusion in the matter and allege that he filed an information against Bernhardi before the latter's shop was open Sunday morning, so as to be ready to nab him as soon as he began to work and thus forestall the other barbers who were also watching. They claim that it was all a ruse to get the case into Schuiv's court, so that a verdict could be secured to please in the other court as a previous trial and acquittal on the same charge. They propose to stay in the light until it is finished, and on the other hand, Fritz proposes to stay with them. He is backed by public sentiment, as it is the prevailing opinion that Sunday shaving is a necessity. The hotel men are deeply interested, claiming that it dives away trade to close the barber shops, and one hotel owner has gone so far as to inform the barber in his hotel that he will oust him from his present quarters if he aids or abets in the prosecution of cases.
From now until July 1, we are going to knock all previous attempts at low prices. We will guarantee to sell you goods cheaper than you ever bought the same quality or your money returned. Best quality India chintzes at 25 and 50 cents yard. Good sateens at 5, 10, and 12.5 cents. Quality cannot be duplicated in the city at the price. All of our fancy dress buttons at just half price. Just think of it. Where can you get such bargains? Only at Cully's. We will sell you yard-wide sheeting for one yard that is better than Lawrence's L.L. Good yard-wide bleached muslin to one yard, worth twice as much. Good yard-wide dress ginghams at one yard, worth more. We will save you money on all white goods, lace finishings, gloves, mitts, hose, corsets, fans, and parasols. Baby caps at your own price; we have too many. If you should happen to want a line wool dress, we will have you at least 23 percent. If you are after bargains, we are bound to get your trade. Ladies' imported hemstitched handkerchiefs, 50 cents, that are worth just double. This is pretty large talk; call and see the goods and satisfy yourselves. We give a handsome present with each and every cash purchase to the amount of $1.

The Early Closing Move.
The early closing fever has broken out again and is having its usual run. It is an annual occurrence and has thus far been invariably productive - the same result dispensation for the clerks. The move is righteously indorsed in the paper is circulated. Some of the merchants sign it and others refuse. That is the first sign of trouble. Perhaps the dealers who want to close carry out their desirés and close at 6 or 7 o'clock. Those who keep open do more or less business, and the early closers get dissatisfied and open up again, and the great reform movement goes over for another year.
Then the program of the year preceding ran smoothly with the same result. Still, the leaks do not get discouraged, and go through the same motions each succeeding season with great upstart enjoyment, and society to be very confident of success. If it were rendered more certain by previous flatteries. This is the situation at the present time. The clerks have again donned their water paint, and have united in a light to secure their evenings to themselves. They have circulated their petition and have thus far secured the signatures of about thirty men merchants who are willing to lock their doors at 7 o'clock. They have all the boot and shoe dealers with one exception, and that one has always been an exception. He even persists in keeping open on Sunday and this causes friction among the other shoe men. Nearly all the dealers agree that evening trade is light and the clerks urge this, together with the discomfort caused by lengthening out an already long hot day, as a reason why they should be allowed to secure a little enjoyment at Clmatauquan, Fall-mount park or Manawa. Whether this year's exertions will secure a change can only be conjectured as yet.
A County Recorder's Eloquent Strike.
County Recorder W. H. Thomas yesterday received a letter from his brother, John F., who is now in Montana, to the effect that he had "struck it rich." "Jack," as he is familiarly known, went out there several years ago and secured a claim, but was not very favorably impressed with it and sold it. The claim was afterward sold for $6,000 and still later for $20,000. In the meantime the first owner had returned to the Bluffs, arriving here about two years ago, and accepted a position in the recorder's office. While there he heard of the rapidly increasing value of the property he had formerly owned and became imbued with a desire to go back there and try it over again. The result was that a few months ago he again headed for Montana. He now writes that he has a claim that shows up very rich in gold near the surface, and he has received a flattering offer from engineers to work it on shares. This, however, he refused, and will work it himself. He thinks he has struck a bonanza, and his friends here are anxiously awaiting further reports.
More Motors to Manawa.
Colonel Led, manager of the Manawa motor line, has concluded that what applies to other street railways all over the country will also hold good with reference to his road that is, that the better the service, the greater the travel, and has accordingly made arrangements to run trains every twenty minutes, instead of every half hour, as now. The change will be made on the first of next month. Trial trips were made yesterday to see whether or not the change could be made without putting on more rolling stock, and it was found that it can be done satisfactorily by increasing the speed and thus shortening the running time. A run was made from Broadway to the lake in fourteen minutes, including eight stops, and this was deemed conclusive proof that a twenty-minute service is practicable with the number of trains now running. The speed inside the corporate limits remains about the same, and the gain is made between the Twenty-sixth avenue siding and the lake. It is believed that this change will result in increasing the travel fully as much as did the change from an hour to a thirty-minute service. Colonel Led is certainly enterprising, and his efforts to better accommodate the public are deserving of ample financial success.
A Second Divorce.
Mrs. Ira Plainer has filed a petition in the district court declaring that her comfort, happiness, and material well-being depend upon the severance of the matrimonial bonds that now bind her to one of the most respected residents of this city. She alleges cruel and inhuman treatment and adultery as the reason why she be granted the prayed-for relief. She wants $1,000 alimony and has already attached Plainer's homestead property on Broadway and a ten-acre tract in the western part of the city.
This is the second time that the couple have figured in the divorce courts of this county. About a year ago they arrived at the conclusion that double blessedness was all a humbug and marital felicity a myth, and the court accommodatingly untied the knot. Mrs. Plainer seemed to win, and obtained a judgment against Plainer. This judgment was never satisfied and now Mrs. Plainer also wants that matter straightened up. It is alleged that the first divorce was obtained through collusion between the parties interested, the wife easily securing evidence to establish the charge of adultery. It was intimated at the time of the second marriage that Plainer thought his wife secured the best end of the deal and accordingly brought about the second marriage to get out of paying the sum awarded by the court. He will try it over again and see if he can manage to emerge through the big end of the horn.
Will Repair the Dam.
The water in Manawa is not falling, as has been reported, although there is a break sixty feet long in the dam, but this is owing to the fact that the river is now high enough to hold it there, as it has backed up to the lake. When the river falls, the lake will undoubtedly keep it company, and no effort will be made to repair the dam until this occurs, as it has been found impractical to make repairs during high water. Such an attempt was made a few days ago, but the water curled out the new material as fast as it was put in. When the water falls, permanent repairs will be made and the dam put in condition to stand the effects of floods, freshets, or other high water, and will then be filled with water from Mosquito creek. There is plenty of water in the lake at present, and the steamers experience no difficulty in visiting all parts of it.
MYTHS ON HYPNOSIS.
He Does Not Know It Reversible When Applied to Criminals.
"If hypnotism can be used with such speed and effect in obtaining confessions from criminals or suspected persons, you can correspond upon it that it will not be long before the New York police department will have a thoroughly equipped force of skilled hypnotists to do the work." Inspector Byrnes never had much faith in hypnotism until he read the Journal article describing the phenomenon, the furor it has created in medical circles in France and Germany, and also to some extent in New York, says the New York Morning Journal. But what interested the inspector more than anything else was the announcement of its use by the French police in placing Gabrielle Bompard, the beautiful accomplice of Eyraud, the murderer, completely at their mercy. The woman has shown herself wonderfully susceptible to hypnotic influences, and by an order of the court, the police were instructed to place her in a state of hypnotism.
This has been done several times, and she has been made to do several absurd things, showing how completely she is controlled by the peculiar power. There is not the slightest doubt but that were she asked, she would make a full confession of the cowardly murder, describing each incident with realistic details. When asked what he thought of hypnotism as an adjunct of the New York police, Inspector Byrnes made the above remark and added: "There is no doubt that this phenomenon has wonderful powers. This is shown by the extraordinary cures wrought by the French and German physicians in the hospitals. That in this country the subject is in too earnest a state to be permanently introduced in any official department."
I have serious doubts as to its applicability with criminals except in individual cases where the subject is particularly susceptible to hypnotical influences. I remember the case of the drug clerk, AVoshington, who was mysteriously struck to pieces in a Third Avenue drug store two years ago. The sixteen-year-old errand boy, Willie Krnlisch, was suspected of the crime, and was held up in the East Fifty-First Street station house. He was an awful liar and although everything pointed to him as the guilty one, he steadfastly refused to make anything like a confession. Thinking that he could be made to go over the balcony if placed in a hypnotic trance, Dr. S. M. Hammond was called in. The boy was very excerable, and although several attempts were made, he steadily resisted all efforts to hypnotize him. If a half-grown boy can be this, a healthy man can certainly do the same. "Hypnotism may be an admirable art, but we must still know more about it before trusting it absolutely."

Park Commissioner Pergoy wants 200 more bosses at Bayliss Park today. There were 150 yesterday, but the commissioner says that the new fountain cannot be set properly with less than 200 men to superintend the work. It would seem that there ought to be more than that number of public-spirited men and philanthropists in the city who would be willing to sacrifice their time on an occasion of this kind.
The Dooley Light Guards' party at Lake Manawa this evening promises to be a delightful affair. Dancing in the new pavilion, boating, and refreshments served by the young ladies of All Saints' guild are among the attractive features. Special motor trains will be run for the accommodation of those who desire to attend. There will undoubtedly be a large attendance, both from this city and Omaha.
The long-awaited Bayliss Park fountain arrived Tuesday evening over the Hook Island by fast freight, and was yesterday unloaded at the park. It will be placed in position by Sprague & Co., foundrymen. Hollenbeck Brothers moved the heavy base, weighing 1000 pounds, to the masonry foundation in the center of the basin. It will require about five days to get the foundation set up and in running order.

The Broadway M. E. Church society met Tuesday evening and appointed the following building committee to have charge of the erection of the new church: W. S. Mayne, chairman; L. W. Talley, J. H. K. Clark, Henry Luring, and Henry DeLong. The plans submitted by F. M. Ellis & Co. were finally adopted and bids will be solicited as soon as the specifications are completed and ready to submit to contractors. Mr. Cooley of the firm of successful architects showed several specimens of Sioux Falls granite, and it was decided to order the necessary material for the new structure from the Falls plaster, stone, and marble company. The stone selected is a handsome red granite, and will make a very fine appearing building. The brick in the present structure will be used for the foundation of the new one. The work of tearing down will begin as soon as the contracts are let. Temporary quarters for use during the summer have not yet been secured.

If constipation is not remedied in season, it is liable to become habitual and chronic. Drastic purgatives, by weakening the bowels, confirm, rather than cure, the evil. Ayer's Pills, being mild, effective, and rejuvenating in their action, are generally recommended by the faculty as the best of aperients.
"Having been subject, for years, to constipation, without being able to find much relief, I last tried Ayer's Pills. I deem it both a duty and a pleasure to testify that I have derived great benefit from their use. For over two years past, I have taken one of these pills every night before retiring. I would not willingly be without them." G. W. Bowman, 20 East Main St., Carlisle, Pa.
"I have been taking Ayer's Pills and using them in my family since 1857, and cheerfully recommend them to all in need of a safe but effectual cathartic." John M. Hogg, Louisville, Ky.
"For eight years, I was afflicted with constipation, which at last became so bad that the doctors could do no more for me. Then I began to take Ayer's Pills, and soon the bowels recovered their natural and regular function, so that now I am in excellent health." S. Loughridge, Tryun, Texas.
"Having used Ayer's Pills, with good results, I fully endorse them for the purposes for which they are recommended." T. Connors, M.D., Centre Bridge, Pa.

lonco witnopsod the fttnonvl of a Dipyor
Indian sqiiuw , says u writer In the Snjj-
inaw Humid. On the third afternoon
tiflor her death the preparations wore
made for it. The women brought dry
resinous woods nnd placed thorn in the
form of n pyramid , and under them were
dry bratiehos nnd pine knots.
When ull was read they brought the
body , wrapped in her best clothes , and
laid it on top. Then all her little trin
kets and her work-basket and bono
utensils for weaving were laid beside
hop , nnd her last b.tby basket laid on
her brciibt , wliich she had woven her
self , hoping soon to need it , for these
wojncn certainly love their little ones
nnd rejoice in their motherhood. It is
ull they have worth living for.
At bundown the disootiholuto widower
was brought forward , and was so drunk
that ho could hardly { tot to the plaeo
where ho was to sit. Coal-tar was
bmeared on the face and in his hair.
This is their mourning garb n coat of
coal-tar. *
Then the fire was lighted und the
women raised a tort of wailing ( hunt in
which the men joined occasionally , and
the body slowly consumed , the lire being
fed by fresh pine knots all the while.
The tin dipper circulated , and the men ,
ono by one , dropped on into slumber , but
the women kept nwako , probably all
night , us the lire was still smoldering in
the morning.

I happened to bo In the United States
sub-treasury on Wall street the other
day , says u New York Star gossipcr ,
find was' rather amused at a little inci
dent I witnessed. A gentleman entered ,
and , approaching ono of the clerks ,
handed him a $20 bill and asked if _ it
were counterfeit. The clerk look it ,
wont iiwuy , and in a few minutes re
turned and handed out the bill without iv
word. Cut aoi'oss its face with si die was
the word "Counterfeit. " The rage of
tlio owner knew no bounds.
"Confound vou ! " ho shouted , "I didn't
nsk you to destroy the bill. I simply
asked you to tell mo if it wore counter
feit. It's worthless now. "
"It never was of any value , " mildly
responded the clerk , "and the i-ulo of
the department is that nil bills olVorod
in this way must be defaced when coun
terfeits before icturning them to the
party presenting them. "
"Now that , " remarked the nxnminor
to mo , "is an almost daily occurrence.
A man gets u counterfoil bill passed on
him and , being in doubt , ho comes inhere
hero to ask about it , imd it is destroyed
for him. fie is naturally indignant , ns
doubtless ho gave value for it und would
like to have u chance to pass it oil on
some ono elso. But the law is impera
tive on us and wo must destroy all suoh
bills under penalty. If that man had
talfcn his bill to u bank it would hnvo
boon returned to him O. K. , but ho
made the mistake of bringing it hero.
The national banks uro supposed to
deface counterfeits IIH well as the treas
ury. They Boldom do it , however
perhaps not ono case out of n hundred.
They are afraid of insulting acustomor. "

Mr. Buz/.ell put some tar in n tin pall
and phi cod it upon the stove to melt the
other day , says the Lewiston ( Me. )
Journal. In the bottom of the pull was
i small hole which hud not boon noticed.
As the tar began to molt it ilowed
Jirough the hole nnd soon took fire ,
making u lively bla'/.o. Mr. Bu/.zoll
eei/ed the pail and started to run out of
doors with it.in doing which ho received
somopuinful burns upon his hand.
In his hurry lie did not bee the fthop-
lord dog lying on the Iloor and stumbled
over him.spilling u quantity of the burn-
.ntf tar upon the dog'ri tail , which wna
eng nnd bushy.
The dog , scared out of Ills wits und
with his burning tail llnrJng up like a
.orch.begnn running around the kitchen
lining-room , setting fire to the walls ,
wood work , tables und chairs , r'lnitlly
they managed to got the dog out of doora

The uid of about fifty of the men from

A man gets a counterfoil bill passed onto him and, being in doubt, comes in here to ask about it, and it is destroyed for him. He is naturally indignant, as doubtless he gave value for it and would like to have a chance to pass it on to someone else. But the law is imperative upon us, and we must destroy all such bills under penalty. If that man had taken his bill to a bank, it would have been returned to him OK, but he made the mistake of bringing it here. The national banks are supposed to deface counterfeits as well as the treasury. They seldom do it, however, perhaps not one case out of a hundred. They are afraid of insulting a customer.

A Series of Consecutive Invents. Mr. Buzzell put some tar in a tin pail and placed it upon the stove to melt the other day, says the Lewiston (Me.) Journal. In the bottom of the pail was a small hole which had not been noticed. As the tar began to melt, it flowed through the hole and soon took fire, making a lively blaze. Mr. Buzzell saw the pail and started to run out of doors with it, in doing which he received some painful burns upon his hand. In his hurry, he did not see the shop dog lying on the floor and stumbled over him, spilling a quantity of the burning tar upon the dog's tail, which was eng and bushy. The dog, scared out of its wits and with his burning tail flaring up like a torch, began running around the kitchen, setting fire to the walls, woodwork, tables, and chairs. Finally, they managed to get the dog out of doors and the animal extinguished his own fire by rolling in the snow. The aid of about fifty of the men from the tannery was quickly obtained, and by great exertions the fire was finally extinguished. As it was, damage to the extent of $50 was done by the fire, this being covered by insurance. The dog was very badly burned, and although slow to recover, it is doubtful if he recovers.

The Paper Trade. Several important paper mills are in course of construction and others are being enlarged, though prices in general continue very low. The Paper World remarks that "enormous plants for the manufacture of pulp are going up in all parts of the country, and the soda and sulphite processes are coming into use more and more. The importation of ground pulp is already a thing of the past, and the chemical brands feel the impact seriously, while the decreasing use of rags makes their importation and sale a matter of uncertainty and dull loss." Consumption is as large as usual, says Bradstreet's. Though there is no special activity, business from the top of the trade to the bottom averages about as well as at any time for the past few months.

There wore no men discharged at the Union

tttno checks to men discharged had ceased.
"But , of course , " said one official , "man
are leaving of their own accord every
day. "
Tno men looked naknnco nt the idea that no
more of them will bo discharged. They express -
press the opinion that the company , having
discharged nearly two hundred men nnd re-
dmyd tlio working time of tlio balance one-
sixth , Is satlslIuJ to rest awhllo and give pub
lic condemnation time to subiidc.
What will all these men do who have been
discharged ! " a reporter asked one of tlio
workmen yesterday morning.
"Well , " said the mechanic , as ho paused a
moment In Us work , "there will bo very few
of them that will bo able to obtain work
cither in Omaha or Council Bluffs. Both of
these places are tilled with mechanics and
work is very slack. Many of the men , I have
been told , are going to Washington and
Oregon. "
"Will the company furnish them free

"No , but I think they will bo able to obtain
reduced rates. "
"Will the men bo taken back In the falU"
was asked T. II. Dailoy , the president of the

"That is owing entirely to the condition of

Tlio Chairman and the Kv-Clinlrmnii
ol'tho Board Talk.
"Goodbyes nro supposed to bo near nt hand
now , are they not , Chairman Balcombe ! "
quired a representative of TTic Biu : yes
terday morning.
"Yes , " replied the retiring chief of the
board of public works , n look of genuine sat
isfaction playing upon his face. "Yes , " lie
repeated , "but you have forgotten my full
title I'm ' nn 'ex' now , nnd us comfortable'
and happy an 'ox1 as you over meet. Not a
wave of trouble roll across my peaceful
breast. "
Ueplylng to other inquiries Mr. Bulcombo
said :
"From the day upon which I assumed the
duties of chairman thrco joirs and n month
ago-to date I never thought for a moment
that I would bo my own successor. I have
always acted upon the theory that I would bo
n one term olllcial ; that any man who un
selfishly and zealously performs the duties of
this office strictly within business lines , us ho
would conduct h'ls own business , ignoring all
personal nnd political differences , friend
ships nnd enmities nnd fearlessly and
honestly strives for the best possible
results for the great body of taxpayers , as I
know I have done , is sure to bo a one-term of
ficial under the present state of public indif
ference nnd prosperity. While the great body
of taxpayers may individually most heartily
approve of such a course they do not attempt
to exert anv influence la public affairs fur
ther than to vote occasionally. Hence they
allow in a city of this sUe about one
hundred active , interested persons who nro
either making money through their busi
ness transactions with the city or who arc
interested in political success to control ,
as a rule , the appointment of tlio public ser
vants to their liking und In furtherance of
their financial or political intoicsts. There
fore , I never expected to bo my own suc
cessor , nnd lot mo say that my successor now
will meet the sumo fate if he pursues tlio
same course that I have.
"There have been $5GS2 , ! ) ! expended in
public improvements in this city since 188'J ,
and over iSIriOO,00 ( ) of this amount has been
expended during my term. "
Being asked whether he had any plans for
the future Mr. Balcombo replied :
"Soon after my entering the ofllco I told
an old friend that when my term was ended
I should see a little of this bit : world in which
I thought I had done as much hard work as
the next one. I propose to now act upon my
remark of three years ago nnd do some trav
eling , though I cannot state Just yet wucti I
shall start. "
Mr. Blrkhnusor being seen said :
" [ shall not take possession of my now
plneo until July 1. I am as yet ui.ablo to say
what changes will bo made in the ofllco. I
know nothing about the plneo but I guess Mr.
Balcombo will post mo up. I have
known him for quite a while and
I have no doubt but Hint ho will give mo
what pointers I require. I made no tight on
on Mr. Bnleombe I simply fought to get the
place. "
This Inst remark wns scarcely in consonance
nance with an assertion which Mr. Blrk-
haascr made a very few weeks ago to the
very same reporter whom ho addressed this
morning. The other remark wns in reply to
questions .regarding a rumor that ho would
bo appointed , when ho said that if there was
anything of that sort ( his being appointed ) in
the air ho didn't know anything about it.

there to it I"
"None whatever. Wo have no occasion to

though thnt depends upon the arrangements
for our connections and the way trains may

erect a house at South Omaha in which to

THE CITY.

Mrs. Clark of the Open Door was called to Chicago yesterday by a telegram announcing the death of a grandchild, the daughter of Mrs. Hutchison.
William A. Lawson, of Elm Creek, Neb., lost a fourteen-year-old boy, named Claud, who has forwarded a description to the police and makes them to make a search.
Arrangements are being made by the city and Frank Murphy to have the city prisoners put to work to earn their board on the rock pile on the corner of Sixteenth and Hard.
H. T. Clark has returned from Bradshaw and denies the report that has been published regarding a lack of systematic distribution of goods and funds among the people of Bradshaw.
Thirty or forty Turners and their friends took the train at 8:30 yesterday morning to take part in the exercises of the Nebraska Turner band at Lincoln. Mayor Gushing and Messrs. Vanderhoft, Holmrod, and Edgerton were in the party.
The pastor and members of the Seward Street M. E. Church complain of the loud and profane language of the baseball players in the vicinity of the church and ask for police interference. A similar complaint and request comes from the residents in the vicinity of Twenty-eighth and Ames Avenue.
The trains leaving Plattsmouth are being systematically worked by pickpockets. The latest victim reported in Omaha yesterday is M. L. Davis of Hoxie, Kan. When leaving the Plattsmouth depot, he was uncereemoniously jostled about by a group of four well-dressed fellows, who captured his pocketbook and $7 in cash.
The Purse and The Trust
Articles known to medical science are used in preparing Hood's Sarsaparilla. Every ingredient is carefully selected, personally examined, and only the best retained. The medicine is prepared under the supervision of thoroughly competent pharmacists, and every step in the process of manufacture is carefully watched with a view to securing in Hood's Sarsaparilla the best possible result.
S. K. Jackson and wife left yesterday for an extended trip east.
Louis Littellfield has been entertaining for some days past his sister, Mrs. C. E. Baker, and her husband, of Chicopee, Mass. Both of the latter left for the coast yesterday by way of the Wabash road.
Mrs. C. H. Dewey returned Tuesday from Battle Creek, Mich., where her husband is lying quite ill. W. I. Kjersted, one of Mr. Dewey's partners in business, left last evening for Battle Creek. Mrs. Dewey will return to her husband in a few days.
Beered Up Too.
Marion Anderson was brought to Omaha from Falls City and arraigned in the federal court on a charge of selling liquor to Indians. He pleaded not guilty and was bound over to the November term.
Store For
The net proceeds of the T. K. concert at Cloyd's opera house for the benefit of the people suffering from dysentery was $136. The money has been turned over to Mr. T. M. Shallenberger of Bradshaw by E. Neil Martin, chairman of the finance committee.

Borhing For Gas.
The machinery for boring for gas in the west part of the city was sent out yesterday. It consists of a large derrick, a cable, and other machinery. The boring will be done on Oscar Pleasants' land on Park Street, just west of the Little Papillion. The work is under the direction of Captain Lewis, and it is proposed to bore 1000 feet at 150 feet. It will require thirty to forty days to complete the first boring.
Want, a Road to Elk Point.
A party of gentlemen from Elk Point, S. D., consisting of A. O. Hingson, secretary of state; George R. Freeman, capitalist, and P. M. Gilmore, attorney at law, visited the city yesterday for the purpose of convincing the business people that a line of road from Omaha to Elk Point would be a paying enterprise, arguing that it would pass through the richest portion of Nebraska and tap the great corn and stock-raising belt of Dakota. The gentlemen were granted an audience, and after receiving bold promises that the question would be investigated, they returned to their homes last evening.
Stronger.
Building Inspector Whitlock has returned from the convention of building inspectors in Chicago.
Eight of the principal cities of the country were represented directly and many others by telegraph. An organization was effected and officers chosen for the ensuing year.
Mr. Whitlock says that Chicago's mayor and building inspector provided lavishly in the way of entertainment and that everybody had a magnificent time.
The purpose of the organization is to promote legislation for a strong building law and the general exchange of views.
In February, the association will meet with the National builders' and traders' exchange in New York.
The Reported Postal Robberies.
Chief Clerk Cramer of the railway mail service returned from Chicago yesterday, where he had been called to consult with Superintendent White relative to postal matters.
In speaking of the reported wholesale robbery committed on the trains between Council Bluffs and Davenport, Iowa, Mr. Cramer stated that he doubted the truthfulness of the report, "for," said he, "It would be impossible, to carry on this system of stealing for eight or nine months without detection. I heard that the value of the property stolen would amount to $5,000, but I doubt this, for if thieves took every registered package that passed over the line during the year they could not obtain such a large sum of money. My territory does not include Iowa, consequently, I am not prepared to speak intelligently upon this subject, but the whole matter is now in the hands of Inspector Jim Stewart of Chicago, and he will make the investigations," he said.
He Was Called Down.
Elbert Nickel wears a broad flapping sombrero, a buckskin belt, fringe on his pants, and spurs on his heels. He comes from Cheyenne County, Kansas, and as he stalked along the street the barrel of a navy revolver bounced down below his coat. He, rode to the station in a patrol wagon and enjoyed the novelty. A search disclosed a cartridge belt well filled and a tremendous pair of brass knuckles.
"Elbert, you are charged with carrying concealed weapons."
"That's right, Joe, there's the weapons and they're danged."
"What do you carry them for?"
"To shoot with. What do you carry them for?"
"You can't carry them in Omaha, Elbert."
"Well, I show you what to do when a letter calls you down!"
"Nobody will call you down here. You can go, but I'll take care of the bull," and Elbert went out into the sunlight, smiled.
But, of course, "said one official," many are leaving of their own accord every day."
Two men looked across at the idea that no more of them will be discharged. They expressed the opinion that the company, having discharged nearly two hundred men and reduced the working time of the balance one-sixth, is satisfied to rest awhile and give public condemnation time to subside.
What will all these men do who have been discharged! "a reporter asked one of the workmen yesterday morning.
"Well," said the mechanic, as he paused a moment in his work, "there will be very few of them that will be able to obtain work either in Omaha or Council Bluffs. Both of these places are filled with mechanics and work is very slack. Many of the men, I have been told, are going to Washington and Oregon."
"Will the company furnish them free transportation for themselves and families?" No, but I think they will be able to obtain reduced rates."
"Will the men be taken back in the fall?" was asked T. H. Daily, the president of the Pioneer employees' association.
"That is owing entirely to the condition of traffic at that time. Last summer the number of working hours were reduced and in the fall they were restored."
The Pioneer association of Union Pacific railway company employees will hold a meeting at the Burnham engine house this afternoon at 1:10 for the purpose of admitting new members and discussing the feasibility of an excursion this summer.
The association is nearly entirely social and at the meeting to be held today no action will be taken on the discharge of the 100 men, which took place last Monday and yesterday.
A handsome complexion is one of the greatest charms a woman can possess. Pozzoni's Complexion Powder gives it.
PUBLIC WORKS OFFICIALS
The Chairman and the Ex-Chairman of the Board Talk.
"Goodbyes are supposed to be near at hand now, are they not, Chairman Balcombe!" inquired a representative of The Bee yesterday morning.
"Yes," replied the retiring chief of the board of public works, a look of genuine satisfaction playing upon his face. "Yes," he repeated, "but you have forgotten my full title - I'm 'an 'ex' now, and us comfortable and happy an 'ex' as you ever meet. Not a wave of trouble roll across my peaceful breast."
Replying to other inquiries Mr. Balcombe said:
"From the day upon which I assumed the duties of chairman three years and a month ago-to date I never thought for a moment that I would be my own successor. I have always acted upon the theory that I would be a one-term official; that any man who unselfishly and zealously performs the duties of this office strictly within business lines, as he would conduct his own business, ignoring all personal and political differences, friendships and enmities and fearlessly and honestly strives for the best possible results for the great body of taxpayers, as I know I have done, is sure to be a one-term official under the present state of public indifference and prosperity. While the great body of taxpayers may individually most heartily approve of such a course they do not attempt to exert any influence in public affairs further than to vote occasionally. Hence they allow in a city of this size about one hundred active, interested persons who are either making money through their business transactions with the city or who are interested in political success to control, as a rule, the appointment of the public servants to their liking and in furtherance of their financial or political interests. Therefore, I never expected to be my own successor, and let me say that my successor now will meet the same fate if he pursues the same course that I have.
"There have been $6,582, expended in public improvements in this city since 1887, and over $18,600,000 of this amount has been expended during my term."
Being asked whether he had any plans for the future Mr. Balcombe replied:
"Soon after my entering the office I told an old friend that when my term was ended I should see a little of this bit: world in which I thought I had done as much hard work as the next one. I propose to now act upon my remark of three years ago and do some traveling, though I cannot state yet where I shall start."
Mr. Brickhouse being seen said:
"I shall not take possession of my new plane until July 1. I am as yet unable to say what changes will be made in the office. I know nothing about the plane but I guess Mr. Balcombe will post me up. I have known him for quite a while and I have no doubt but that he will give me what pointers I require. I made no fight on Mr. Balcombe; I simply fought to get the place."
This last remark was scarcely in consonance with an assertion which Mr. Brickhouse made a very few weeks ago to the very same reporter whom he addressed this morning. The other remark was in reply to questions regarding a rumor that he would be appointed, when he said that if there was anything of that sort (his being appointed) in the air he didn't know anything about it.

UP IN A FLASH.
The Folsom Manufacturing Company
Completely Destroyed by Fire.
An alarm of fire from box 8 sent the department flying down to Thirteenth and Pierce Just before noon.
A dense volume of smoke and a shaft of flame which could be seen for many blocks attracted a crowd under the impression that the elevator was on fire.
The blaze was in the tar-roof manufacturing plant of T. W. Rogers, in the rear of Garnow's branch bakery, and the whole off tar, frame buildings and all, went up like a pull of powder.
The department responded promptly, but too late to be of much service beyond preventing the spreading of the flames.
The building and contents, consisting of material and machinery, was a total loss, and was valued at about $8,500. It was insured for $6,100.

The School Census.
The work of taking the school census of Omaha is about completed, and by Saturday night the enumerators will have their returns in shape so they will be enabled to tell the exact number of children of school age in the city.
While the returns are not complete, it is now known that the census will show a most gratifying increase in the school population, as it will not fall below 21,100, or a gain of about 1,150, since the taking of the 1830 census. By wards, the First, Second, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth, will show the largest increase, while the others, with the exception of the Third, have held their own. The Third ward will show a slight falling off, which is accounted for by the fact that during the past year the building of business houses and manufacturing establishments has driven the residents into other portions of the city. The only railroad team out of Omaha running expressly for the accommodation of Omaha, Council Bluffs, Des Moines and Chicago business is the Rock Island railroad, leaving Omaha at 1:15 p.m. daily. Ticket office, 1002, Sixteenth and Farnam St., Omaha.
BUILDING THE ROCK ISLAND. The Bids for the Work to Lincoln Have Been Opened. Second Vice President Parker of the Rock Island road opened bids yesterday for the grading of that line between South Omaha and Lincoln. Contracts will probably be let today and ground broken early next week. Smith, Gillett & Co. of St. Joe have already been awarded a contract to build the bridges, and they expect to commence work at once. It is proposed to have the road completed and trains running before cold weather. When asked about right of way, Mr. Parker said that he had secured title to all the land required through Douglas, Sarpy and Cass counties, but he has not closed up the deals in Lancaster. He is waiting for Lincoln to vote the $500,000 bonds that have been asked and when that shall have been done, dirt will fly at a rapid rate. He could not say whether the Platte would be crossed at North Bend or Ashland. Both places were still under consideration, with the chances very largely in favor of the former.
"It has been rumored, Mr. Parker, that you propose to locate and build shops of some kind at South Omaha. What foundation is there to it?"
"None whatever. We have no occasion to build shops there, not even a round house, though that depends upon the arrangements for our connections and the way trains may run. Possibly we might be compelled to erect a house at South Omaha in which to shelter engines, but I doubt it."
A Louis List of Active preparations are being made for the great official "change act" in Union Pacific circles July 1. The list includes about fifteen officials, running from road master to general manager. Mr. Dickinson, who held the latter place, goes out entirely, and J.O. Brinkerhoff, superintendent of the Kansas division, succeeds him. This promotes A.T. Palmer to the vacant chair and brings E. Hush, an old conductor, into the rank of assistant. Mr. Hush's headquarters will be at Wallace. John H. Griffith steps from the office of auditor of disbursements into that of general purchasing agent, and Mr. Anderson, traveling agent, is to be his successor. No one has yet been selected to take Anderson's place. Joseph W. Hill, a young man in the auditor's office, becomes assistant to Vice President Holcomb. J.S. Tebbets retires from the position of general freight agent to become superintendent of the coal department; C.H. Roads has been appointed to the stone and William Washburn to the hotel department.
Fred B. Whitney, assistant freight agent at Kansas City, steps into Mr. Tebbets' shoes, J.V. Parker, the assistant at Salt Lake, moves into the vacancy created by Whitney's promotion. E.C. Eccles, formerly Pacific coast agent, goes to Salt Lake City, while A.H. Johnson, heretofore in charge of the freight work at Denver, is transferred to the office in San Francisco. It is not known who his successor will be, though a young man named Adams, general agent at Butte, Mont., seems to be the favorite.
East Instead of West.
Jack Dowling, the great Burlington rustler, ticketed forty-three of the discharged Union Pacific employees Tuesday evening. A Northwestern agent tried to get them but they boldly repudiated that line because of its close relations with the Union Pacific. Some went to Chicago, some to Buffalo, a few to Rochester, half a dozen to Syracuse and thirteen to New York City. Another party will follow tomorrow or next day.
Showed Their Appreciation.
General Passenger Agent John Francis, division superintendent, J.H. Phelan and General Agent A.C. Zlonor, of the Burlington, have been complimented by the newspaper men with whom they took an excursion recently to Newcastle, Hot Springs and other Black Hills points, with handsome presents. Messrs. Francis and Kleiner each received a fine gold watch chain and Mr. Phelan a very pretty charm.
Recorded With the Shield.
Since the publication on Monday last of C.H. McKibbin's record as general purchasing agent of the Union Pacific, hundreds of people, filled with curiosity, have visited the Lowe avenue mansion erected by that gentleman. Vice-President Holcomb, Director Millard and S.P. Morse were out looking at it Tuesday evening. They discovered a distinguished feature in the shape of a handsomely carved shield like that of the Union Pacific trade-mark set in the front wall as a keystone over the main entrance.
The Washburn Explored.
Superintendent Jaynes says that the washouts on the Norfolk branch of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad were repaired yesterday and all trains are now running. The water in the streams there is now falling, while it is rising in the streams further east towards Weston. The estimate of damage to crops by the storm has been exaggerated. Some corn on the low bottoms was submerged, but as the country is rolling, the corn on the hills was but slightly damaged.

low-commlttccmcn to take the Waifs' mission
to the park and back , declaring that it
would create public sentiment in favor of the
strikers. Finally an agreement was reached
nnd ono of the strikers led the boys proces
sion to the suburban depot. The lads

WASHINGTON , D. O. , June 20.1
A growl Is heard here from Nebraska and
other land offices because the government
won't allow "rent" to receivers and regis
ters. The fact Is that the appropriations
have never been sufllclcnt to make this allow
ance to all the land offices , hcnco the practice
bus been to allow rent to such land ofllccs
only as were doing less than n maximum busi
ness and to allow clerk hlro to ofllces
doing moro than a maximum. Should
the business at any land ofllco
fall so low that clerks nro not
necessary tlio rental Item will bo allowed.
Last year the appropriation for 105 local land
ofllces was $1S.,000 ) , while this year the bouso
has cut the total for 121 land offices down to
$175,000 , or $3,000 less thairlastyearalthough
there is an Increase of eighteen moro land
ofllces. Tills Is 50,000 less than the amount
really necessary , so says Land Commissioner

There can now bo very little If any doubt
that the house committee on elections will
report in favor of unseating" Clifton H.
Breckenndgo of the Second district of Ar
kansas. During his speech on the election
bill in the house this afternoon Chairman
Howell reviewed the Breckenridgo case in
such a way ns to indicate that the committee
Intends to report against the sitting member.
Ho said , among other things , that the
voters had been Intimidated by a dis
play of artillery and after repub
licans had cast their ballots the
boxes were stolen so that the franchise of the
opposing party might bo thrown out. It Is
thought the committee will recommend that
the salary of the office ( $10,000) ) shall bo paid
to the children of John M. Clayton , who ran
against Breckenridgo and who was mur
dered while taking testimony in his contest.
Nl'.nPS COHltUCTIXO.
It is probable that the president will send
back to congress for correction.tho dependent
pension bill. The measure has been sent to
the interior department for comparison and
analysts as to phraseology , etc. In the llrst
section the word "sailor" is omitted in two
instances so as to provide only for the consid
eration of claims of dependent parents of sol
diers and the widows of soldiers. Only the
word "sailor" should bo Inserted in connec
tion with soldiers in each Instance. The second
end , third and fourth sections of tlio bill arose
so fmined that it is believed the sailors would
bp provided for the same ns sold lei's , as the
bill stands , but inasmuch as some doubt may
arise it is likely that the bl i'vvill go back to
congress for correction , which would be
promptly made.
TIIU NATIONAL EI.RCTIOX LAW.
As was expected , the debute upon the na
tional election law created considerable of a
stir in the house today. U was opened by
Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts , who Introduced
the llrst measure upon the subject , who is
nnu of the authors of the measure under dis
cussion , and who has made u close study of
the question for years. Ho submitted nlotof
figures showing that while in Kansas , Ohio ,
Indiana and the northern and western states
gcnor.illy , there were cast from -10,000 to
110,000 votes at congressional elections , in
Georgia , Mississippi , Texas mid other south
ern states , congressional elections were
held where only from 'J,000 , to
10,000 votes were cast. There
was only ono explanation for this continued
condition of affairs voters wcro kept away
from the polls , their votes suppressed or tlio
districts had a smaller representation of voters
ers than the law requires.
' Chairman Howell of Illinois made a largo
number of similar statements. Tlio only man
who attempted to explain the cause of tlio
snmll vulo at congressional elections in the
south was Mr. Crisp of Georgia. Ho said
the people did not tulro interest in congres
sional elections , that they remained away
from the polls , and that if they did not want
to vote and Imvo their votes counted as cast
it was the fault of the voters and no law
could compel them to attend the elections.
Mr. Kowell replied that the object of the
bill under discussion was to induce the people
to vote by guaranteeing them safety at tlio
polls and a fair count , to which no response
was attempted , but the republican side
smiled audibly and the hundreds of colored
men in the galleries applauded so vigorously
that the chair had to admonish them to de
sist. The burden of the complaint of the
democratic members against the bill is that
tlio cortllicates of the supervisors are made
prlniafuclo evidence of election and the clerk
In making up the roll of the house will scat

During the debate on Wyoming's admission
this afternoon Senator Paddock challenged
Senator Jones'statement that the prelimi
naries to Wyoming's adoption of the consti

vote cast for the constitution absurdly snmll
on the basis of the population claimed. Ho
took the floor ami quoted the experience of
Nebraska in advocacy of the Wyoming bill ,
explained the steps taken prior to Nebraska's
admission and showed tlio comparatively
snmll vote cast for statehood. Senator Pail-
dock insisted that the absence of opposition
always results in a light vote , as it did in
Nebraska and Wyoming , and made a strong
plea for the admission of the territory. Ho
was antagonized by Senator Heagan , who
read from the records the Nebraska enabling
net of 1SO-I , which ho claimed alone made pos
sible the admission of the state. Ho sub
sided without a protest when Senator Pad
dock called his attention to the fact that the
convention which assembled under the en
abling net adjourned within an hour without
action and that it was two years later be
fore stops wore taken through the territorial
legislature for the admission of Nebraska as
a state.

[ Special to Tun Bnlz.'J The Lower

tating their removal to tip south side of

for years worried them nudihey nro becom-
iu gdctermlncd on movingnjid ; swill take the
matter into their own haiiuft unless the gov
ernment soon takes actloif iAll but sevcnty-
llvo of this tribe are anxious to move and it
would not bo n surprise an ) ? day to see tno
whole outfit , bag and baggngo , heading for
the south to pitch their tepofes on the joutli
side of White river , where' ! they claim the
country is better than around the present
agency. , f
They are liable to have ! ' trouble with the
Uosebnd Indians , however.should they at
tempt to move south of White river , us that
country belongs to the Kosebuds , nnd they
have notified the Lower Brules that they
must not intrude upon their reservation or
Indian blood will surely flow' . Tlieso threats
do not discourage the Brules In the least.
The agent at Rosebud agency has entered a
pretest against the proposed removal and the
matter has now been referred to the authori
ties at Washington. General Crook , while
on the reservation last summer , promised
these Indians that ho would use his influence
toward the removal and they believe that ho
did so before his de.ith.

A FLIGHT OF ORATORY FROM THE SOUTH ,
Tlia Senate Uesume.s Confederation of
the Hill for the Admission ol'
A Vote to beTaken
Taken Today.
WASIIIXOTOX , June CO. In the house , upon
motion of Mr. Duuncll of Minnesota , the
house bill with the senate amennmcnts
authorizing the construction of n bridge
ncrooss the Mississippi river ut Winona ,
Minn. , passed.
The house bill was passed granting fifteen
days' leave to clerks In first and second-class
postonices.
The regular order being demanded Mr.
Lodge of Massachusetts began the debate
upon the national election bill ,
Ho proceeded to sketch the bill
in outline. nnd said the net
which it was proposed ; to extend had been
called into existence by the glguntio frauds
in the city of New York prior to 1870 and
1871. There were other cities nnd districts
where the law was needed. The other side
hud criticized frauds committed in northern
cities. Ho would put a secret ofllclal ballot
in every election district , because ho believed
that was the only way to stop the use of
money in elections. If the belief that such a
thing as a fair election in the south was un
known , was true , then it was high time the
United States should put n stop to
the evil if it had to cxcrclso every
power the constitution put into its hands.
No Intelligent and fair-minded man would
deny that there hud been frauds In the north.
Where wrong doing occurred it Is where ouo
party sought to get ahead of the other by
vulgar means. As to the south , it was
largely a question of race. Tlio negro prob
lem was ono of the gravest before tlto Ameri
can people. It was ono In which all were
concerned and were responsible , whether
living in the north or the south , The bill
hud been called revolutionary. The revolu
tion was to bo found in the speeches ho read ,
speeches which showed that constitutional
representation did not exist. Tlio national
government must extend to every citizen the
equal rights which the constitution guar
anteed.
Mr. Hcmphtll of South Carolina argued
that it was unconstitutional. It was not na
tional , but sectional. There was no more in
iquitous provision in the bill than the one
providing for the appointment of au unnum
bered number of men absolutely under the di
rection of a supervisor. Ho hud examined in
detail the provisions relating to supervisors
and said that the whole bill seemed framed
against the voters and in favor of the super
visor. A good deal had been said about the
new south , but what the country reallv
needed was n new north , a north that will
take a view suggested by facts and not by
liroconeeivcd prejudices ; that does not be
lieve it has all the virtue and the rest of the.
country none ; that would not waste
all its time in remedying a sup
posed abuse of distant places ; that
would not think an Anplo-buxon in the
bouth always in the wrong when ho has any
trouble with the African. What was the use
of talking about a free ballot in Kansas when
the stuto had boon so gerrymandered that
M7K)0 ( ) democrats of Kansas had never been
represented on this iloori
Mr. Kelley of Kansas asked : "How do
you expect to get a democrat here when there
are not four democratic counties in the
state I" \
Mr. Hemphill It docs not matter about
how many democratic counties there are. The
democrats have never been represented here.
If there was u fair representation on this floor
the proportion would be 10 ! ) democrats , 154
republicans , live prohibitionists and two
labor men. Messrs. Hiscock and Evarts were
on the floor of the senate misrepresenting the
state of New York nnd the same
was true of Connecticut , which had been
democrats for years. When the republicans
of the north had taken the beam out of their
own eyes and fixed the laws so the people's
wish might be honestly expressed , when
they practiced as they preached , southern
democrats would receive them with open
arms. Under this system which it was pro
posed to revive the people of the south had
been robbed some years iigo by picked vil-
liaus of the north , backed by the United
States army. The soutli did not want to bo
put in that position again. "We , " Mr.
Hcmphill continued , "know wo must either
rule that country or leave it. Now. for my
self , before the people of the United States
and before .God , in nil reverence , 1 swear wo
will not leave it. [ Applause. ] I do
not hesltato to say that a col
ored man has as many rights as I have ,
but be cannot have his rights and mine , too ,
and this law is intended to put him again in
control of the southern states , Intended to
awaken that race prejudice which Is fust
dying , intended to bring about that constant
irritation and clash between the two colors in
the south which will retard Its growth and bo
destructive of the very principles of human
government. "
Mr. Hcmphill was loudly applauded by the
democrats ns ho sat down nnd nearly all of
them pressed forward to congratulate him.
Mr. Bingham , from the postofllco commit
tee , reported the senate amendments to the
postofllco appropriation bill nnd the house
non-concurred in them.
Consideration of the election bill was re
sumed and Mr. IJowell of Illinois addressed
the house In favor of It. Ho said the number
was not few of these who believed that six
yours ago Cleveland was counted into the
presidential chair by corrupt olllcials at tlio
polls in his own state , to say nothing of the
suppression of votes in the south , and the
number was increasing every day of these
who believed it. If that belief honestly ex
isted ought it not to bo the wish of every
representative of the people to so conduct
elections as to make the churgo Impossible of
belief in the future ! It was everywhere
in northern circles believed that the black
vote of the southern states was suppressed
and the fifteenth amendment nullified ,
Mossrs. Dates of Alabama , Crisp of Geor
gia , Lewis of Mississippi and others took oc
casion at this point to state that the elections
In their districts wcro perfectly fair.
Mr. Rowcll declared that In some districts
of the south bodies of armed men went from
poll to poll and destroyed the ballot boxes , in
other * the boxes were stuffed and the true
balloU thrown away , In others military com
panies were organized to tire a cannon , morn
ing and night , "to let the darkies know that
there is going to bo a fair election. " Cabins
of negroes were fired Into , and If that were
not successful and the negiocs turned out the
military officers made the polls n target for
target practice.
Mr. Oiites of Alabama asked for the names
of the districts and Mr. Rowell mimed three
in Mississippi and ono In Arkansas.
This brought Mr. MeRuo to his feet with n
strong denial and soon ho and Mr. Breckin-
rldgo were talking at the same tlmo.
When quiet was restored Mr. Rowell
finished his speech and Mr. Lchlbaek ( re
publican ) spoke againgst the bill. Such n
law would bring about a conflict of authority
and a deplorable state of affairs.
Mr. Tucker of Virginia also spoke against
the bill and the house adjourned.
( Senate.
WAHHIXOTOX , Juno 2(1 , In the senate ,
among the bills reported from committees
nnd placed on the calendar was the house bill
to authorize the secretary of the Interior to
procure nnd submit to congress proposal ! ) for
the sale of the western part of the Crow In
dian reservation In Montana.
The resolution offered yesterday by Mr.
Cull directing the secretary of the senate to
prepare n tublo showing the number of bills
Introduced by each senator and the number
of them passed , was taken up , and Mr. Ed
munds moved to luy tbo resolution ou the ta
ble.
ble.After
After an explanation by Mr. Cull of his mo
tive in ottering the resolution , the motion to
lay on the tnblo was agreed to.
The house bill for the admission of Wyom
ing as n state was taken up and Mr. Jone * of
Arkansas addressed the senate. Ho declared
himself In favor of the admission of Wyom
ing nnd of nil other territories except Utah
when they hud tuifllclont population nnd
sunielcnt wealth to Justify their assumption
of state governments. But ho was unwilling
to see Wyoming admitted In the way now
proposed , and ho proceeded to state the rea
sons why In his opinion the iwmiigo of the
pending bill would bo exceedingly unwise.
There was no authority for holding a con
stitutional convention , Mr. Jones said , and
ho opposed the participation of women in
the vote on the convention. Ho opposed the
constitutional provisions for woman suffrage ,
for tbo holding of real estate by aliens and
for compulsory education. In conclusion Mr.
Jones declared himself In favor of passing tin
enabling act for all the territories except
Utah and admitting them as states after they
had compiled with the provisions of the act ,
and ho moved as a substitute for the pending
bill ono for such an enabling course. In the
further course of Ids arguments Mr. Jones
referred to the wives of Mormons In Wy
oming and Idaho voting and said in answer
to Mr. Morgan that ho did not know how
many wives n Mormon had to vote with him.
Mr. Stewart replied to Jones and said it
would bo tlmo enough to act on the coses of
the other territories when they were beloro
the senate. They were not before it now.
Mr. Reagan opposed the bill. Ho argued
against the provision for woman suffrage , tlio
effect of which was , ho said , to make men of
women and co-relatlvcly to inakfe women of
men. It was only latterly that th ? people
had become wiser limn their creator and
wiser than all generations that preceded
them.
At the close of Mr. Reagan's speech the
understanding was reached that the vote on
the bill and amendments should begin ut 4
o'clock tomorrow.
Mr. Edmunds wanted It understood that it
did not amount to an order of the senate.
There ought to bo ono body in the country ,
ho said , where thcro was freedom of debate.
The following bills wcro taken from the
calendar and passed : House bill to provide
for a term of court nt Danville , 111. ; senate
bill to aid the state of South Dakota to sup
port n school of mines , donating fiO per cent
ot the monov received from tlio sale of min
eral land not to exceed f 12.0UO a year nor to
exceed the amount contributed by the state.
After executive session the senate ad
journed.

Tlio AVay Clear Tor an Advance.
CHICAGO , Jnno 20. JSpoeial Telegram to
Tin : Bii-.J : : For the first ttmo In four months ,
the way is apparently clear for an advance
In western r.ilca. Yesterday's meeting en
countered no opposition in advancing through
rates to the northwest from Interior points.
It was consequently decided this morning to
cull a general moc'ting of all western lines to
take action next Wednesday. At that time
the committee appointed some time slnco ou
advancing rates and of which Vice 1'rcsident
Nowtfcan of tlio Northwestern Is chairman ,
will imiUo Its report.
This report goes fully Into the cause of the
reduction and the necessity for an advance in
rates. Figures show that this year's remark
able tonnage is the only thing which has kept
western roads from each "bowing a deficit.
To provide for the future , therefore , and es
pecially to avoid keeping tlio reduced basis
in effect until It Is thought it will permanent ,
the following advances are recommended t
To St. Paul and Minneapolis an advance
in the proportions of through r.Ue-s from in
terior points to the present local basis
of10 cents ; at the close of naviga
tion that the proportions of through
rates from the seaboard bo advanced from
the present 22 cent scale to 5B cents and limb
the local basis bo advanced
present of10 cents
vanced to lit ) cents ; to Missouri river gate
ways from Chicago that the present local
basis of (10 ( cents bo advanced to 70 or 73
cents and that through rates bo advanced in
proportion.
There is hardly any question that the re
port of the committee will bo unanimously
adopted and tlio advanced scale go into effect
in tea days from next Wednesday.

TWENTIETH YEAR. OMAHA, FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 27, 1890. NUMBER
REFUSED TO DISCHARGE HIM,
The Illinois Central Company Issues Its Ultimatum to the Strikers,
SUPERINTENDENT RUSSELL RETAINED,
Much Speculation Surrounds Whether a General Tie-Up Will Be Ordered on the Bytimeini Matter.
CANCARIO, June 20. The crisis of the big strike of the Illinois Central trainmen was reached this evening. After an all-day session the conference between the strikers' committee and the officials ended with a positive refusal on the part of the company to discharge Superintendent Russell. This was the ultimatum so far as the company is concerned.
When the conference broke up, the men went at once to the strikers' headquarters to report the result.
Speculation was rife as to whether a general strike throughout the Illinois Central system would be ordered and a gigantic struggle ensue.
The strikers backed down on their refusal to carry the newsboys to Jackson Park. In the afternoon yesterday Conductor Penfield of the committee of strikers promised Superintendent Daniels that the Waifs' Mission boys would ride over the Illinois Central. Later his associates on the committee overruled him and decided that no exception in favor of the newsboys could be made. They stood firmly by the agreement to run no trains. This morning Penfield urged his fellow-committee members to take the Waifs' Mission to the park and back, declaring that it would create public sentiment in favor of the strikers. Finally an agreement was reached and one of the strikers led the boys' procession to the suburban depot. The lads boarded the Illinois Central cars in waiting and the strikers managed the engine and posted the brakemen on the train. The boys are the first passengers the road has carried since the strike began.
The Strike
CAIRO, Ill., June 20. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] A committee of the strikers came here today and on their orders every freight train between here and Cairo on the Illinois Central was sidetracked. The passenger coaches were detached from two trains and local roads were notified not to handle Central cars going to other lines.
A Striking Moulder Fatally Shot.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 20. James Kerr, a prominent foundryman, while walking on the street with a non-union moulder today, was assaulted by a crowd of strikers. Finding that he was being worsted, Kerr drew a revolver and fatally shot Edward Crogan.
There is great excitement over the tragedy. The non-union man, Clausen, has been intimidated frequently by the strikers. He went to work for the firm a couple of days ago and Mr. Kerr, on account of the threats of last night, escorted him home. This morning he called at Clausen's house and they walked down to the foundry together. When near it a gang of strikers jumped out from a doorway, set on them, and beat them severely.
Kerr will not talk, but Clausen says his employer did not shoot until he was beaten down and men on all sides were striking at him. Clausen also attempted to draw a revolver, but the strikers got it away from him.
One Blood Granted the Bates.
ST. Louis, Mo., June 20. The Mobile & Ohio road today granted the demands of their warehousemen in East St. Louis. All the other roads refused and unless the men return to work tomorrow, will fire new men.
Eastern Old Wade.
DAVENPORT, Colo., June 20. The strike of mill and benchmen, which has been on for two months, ended this morning and 600 men returned to work at the old schedule.
Street Car Employees Strike.
ROCK ISLAND, Ill., June 20. The street car employees here struck today for more wages and shorter hours.
The Sunday School Convention.
PITTSBURGH, Pa., June 20. The morning session of the International Sunday school convention was taken up with reading reports and other routine business of an unimportant nature.
In the afternoon the nominating committee presented a long list of presidents and members of the executive committee, one person from each state, territory, and province being nominated for vice president and one on the executive committee. Quite a contest took place between St. Louis, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, and Toronto for the next international convention in 1891, but Chicago withdrew in favor of St. Louis and that city was selected. In the afternoon and evening a number of addresses were made. Miss Frances Wilbur in her address said she didn't know that national constitutional prohibition legislation will ever overcome, but believed it would.
The Lutheran Synod.
MILWAUKEE, Wis., June 20. At today's session of the Lutheran synod, President Schwim made a report in which he advised the synod to take proper action on the Bennett compulsory school law. He expressed regret at the universal experience of the German Lutheran church, that large numbers of the younger members are drawn away by the churches of other denominations. Rev. Link of Springfield, Ill., read the report of the board of supervision on the theological seminary at Springfield. The report mentioned a lack of sufficient dormitories for the accommodation of students, and recommended that the erection of a building at a cost of $50,000, be authorized forthwith.
Physicians and Surgeons Organize.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill., June 20. A meeting of physicians and surgeons from all over the west who served in the army and navy during the war was held today and the Illinois Army and Navy Medical association organized.

Son.
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., June 20. The British cruiser Esmeralda arrived today from Acapulco under orders to coal and proceed directly to Berlin.
A MURDERER IS HANGED THIS MORNING.
City, Minn., June 27. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] At 1 a.m., William Brookfield was hanged here shortly after midnight under the John Day Smith law, which requires that all murderers shall be executed between midnight and dawn. Just before going to the scaffold, Brookfield made a confession, in which he licensed his wife for infidelity and said he committed the double murder in self-defense.
Last October Brookfield killed Mrs. William Coombs and her husband after a heated quarrel over Brookfield's wife's character.
Three or four days ago one of the jurors in the case made affidavit that he had not on any ballot voted Brookfield guilty of murder in the first degree. No attention, however, was paid to this and the hanging proceeded according to the program.
IOWA NEWS.
The Sioux Chautauqua.
Des Moines, la., June 20. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] The Iowa Chautauqua has begun a ten days' session at Cedar Falls, with a good attendance and fine prospects. There are exercises of various kinds nearly every hour during the day and evening. Prof. Bartlett gives lessons in music and vocal culture, and Dr. Case and others conduct classes daily in the Chautauqua normal work.
Classes in Young Men's Christian Association and Christian Endeavor work will also be conducted by the officers of the state societies. There will also be daily lectures by noted speakers on various topics. Yesterday was physicians' day. Today the old soldiers had the program. Tomorrow will be temperance day, and Saturday young people's day. General Gibson was the chief speaker today, and George W. Bain will talk tomorrow.
Omaha Highmen at Davenport.
DAVENPORT, IA., June 20. [Special Telegram to The Bana.] The Omaha sharpshooters rolled into Davenport this morning in style in their own Pullman car to attend the tenth biennial tournament of the Upper Mississippi Valley Rifle association, which opened here today. The tournament is attended by more than a hundred visiting rifle men from the upper Mississippi states. The shooting has been interfered with by the heat, but has been lively all day. The rifle men made a parade of the city this morning, and were banquetted and addressed by Mayor FIcko on entering the park at noon. The tournament continues over Sunday.
The Jobbers Alarmed.
Des Moines, IA., June 20. [Special Telegram to The Bana.] The railroad commissioners have received a letter from Van Patten & Maires, wholesale grocers of Davenport, in which they express a fear that the new order for joint rates issued by the board will not have the desired effect with roads like the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific and the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern. If the latter is to be considered a class B road they are fearful that the roads will put in other rates than the class which the board has given them. E. L. Spencer of Oskaloosa expresses the fear that the Iowa Central will change its rates from class A to class C, and thus make the ruling of the board not advantageous to the shippers.
An Important Invention.
ATLANTIC, IA., June 20. [Special to The Bana.] An Atlantic inventor, C. K. Harding, has perfected an entirely new underground system for operating electric street cars without the use of the overhead wires. It is on a new principle, abandoning the slab idea which has been fruitlessly worked upon by numberless inventors and using a tight conduit in which the main wire may be thoroughly insulated. Its many advantages are obvious. Not the least among them is its freedom from the danger of lightning. A company has been formed here with a capital stock of $500,000 to push the merits of the invention.
Blown Off the Foundation.
Moorhead, IA., June 20. [Special Telegram to The Bana.] During the storm last night, the house of Dennis Roberts, live miles west of here, was blown off the foundation, the doors blown in and the windows broken. His stable and cattle sheds were also blown down. The storm had the appearance of a small cyclone. The house of William Durbin, four miles west, was struck by lightning and Mr. Durbin severely shocked and burned, but he will recover.
Fatal Case of Sunstroke.
Moorhead, IA., June 20. [Special to The Bana.] Rasmus Olson, a farm hand, was the victim of a fatal sunstroke yesterday. He was found nearly dead in the field where he had been engaged in plowing. He had only been in this country thirty days.
'Killed by the Cars.
Ottumwa, IA., June 20. [Special Telegram to The Bana.] William Beedle, an engineer on the "Q," was overcome by heat and laid down near the track at Batavia last night. He was struck by the fast train and instantly killed.
Hot Weather at Davenport.
DAVENPORT, IA., June 20. The thermometer today registered 87.5-90, the highest record for June since the signal service was established here, eighteen years ago. All outdoor work was abandoned.
Judge Sherwin Nominated.
MASON CITY, IA., June 20. [Special Telegram to The Bana.] The republican Judicial convention for the Twelfth district was held in this city today. Judge John C. Sherwin received the nomination by acclamation.
Ordered the Liquor Destroyed.
HAMILLTON, IA., June 20. [Special to The Bana.] Squire Campbell ordered the liquor that was seized by Constable Morgan from the American Express company a few days ago destroyed today.
The Kendalls Welcomed Home.
LONDON, June 20. [Special Cablegram to The Bana.] An enormous gathering, including many persons prominent in aristocratic, literary and artistic circles, welcomed Mr. and Mrs. Kendall home at the Whitehall rooms of the Metropole hotel this evening. Genevieve Ward delivered an address of welcome and the Lotus Glee singers performed. Mr. Kendall, in returning thanks, said: "The great success which Mrs. Kendall and myself met with in America was due to the generosity of the American people. Everything in America is on a gigantic scale and the people have hearts as big as their country. Their kindness was overwhelming. But while the hospitality that was showered upon us was enough to turn our heads, it has not turned our hearts, which beat none the less warmly toward our old friends because we have made new friends in America."
North American Turners Adjourn.
NEW YORK, June 20. The national convention of the North American Turners adjourned today to meet in June, 1886, at Washington. The New York central club feels very serious at the adoption by the convention of a socialistic platform and it is probable the New York society will withdraw from the organization.
Fight Between Armenians and Kurds.
CONSTANTINE, June 20. Serious conflicts are reported between Armenians and Kurds, in which many were killed on both sides.
The Death of Toll.
HALIFAX, N.S., June 20. The lieutenant governor of Nova Scotia, Archibald Woodbury McLean, died this morning.
Bond Offering.
WASHINGTON, June 20. [Special Telegram to THE BANAI] Bonds offered: $100 at 83. A KICK FROM LAND OFFICES, The Government's Refusal to Allow Rent a Basis of Complaint.
APPROPRIATION STILL FURTHER REDUCED.
No Doubt That the House Committee on Elections will Leave the Unseating of Breckenridge of Arkansas.
WASHINGTON BUREAU OF THE OMAHA BANAI] 613 FOLLOTH STREET,
WASHINGTON, D.C., June 20.
A growl is heard here from Nebraska and other land offices because the government won't allow "rent" to receivers and registers. The fact is that the appropriations have never been sufficient to make this allowance to all the land offices, hence the practice has been to allow rent to such land offices only as were doing less than a maximum business and to allow clerks here to offices doing more than a maximum. Should the business at any land office fall so low that clerks are not necessary, the rental item will be allowed. Last year the appropriation for 105 local land offices was $185,000, while this year the house has cut the total for 121 land offices down to $175,000, or $3,000 less than last year although there is an increase of eighteen more land offices. This is $50,000 less than the amount really necessary, says Land Commissioner Grof, and Senator Manderson will look into the matter.
MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.
There can now be very little if any doubt that the house committee on elections will report in favor of unseating Clifton H. Breckenridge of the Second district of Arkansas. During his speech on the election bill in the house this afternoon, Chairman Howell reviewed the Breckenridge case in such a way as to indicate that the committee intends to report against the sitting member. He said, among other things, that the voters had been intimidated by a display of artillery and after republicans had cast their ballots, the boxes were stolen so that the franchise of the opposing party might be thrown out. It is thought the committee will recommend that the salary of the office ($10,000) shall be paid to the children of John M. Clayton, who ran against Breckenridge and who was murdered while taking testimony in his contest.
NON-COMPLULSIVE CONSTRUCTION.
It is probable that the president will send back to Congress for correction the dependent pension bill. The measure has been sent to the interior department for comparison and analysis as to phraseology, etc. In the first section, the word "sailor" is omitted in two instances so as to provide only for the consideration of claims of dependent parents of soldiers and the widows of soldiers. Only the word "sailor" should be inserted in connection with soldiers in each instance. The second, third, and fourth sections of the bill arose so seldom that it is believed the sailors would be provided for the same as soldiers, as the bill stands, but inasmuch as some doubt may arise, it is likely that the bill will go back to Congress for correction, which would be promptly made.
THE NATIONAL ELECTION LAW.
As was expected, the debate upon the national election law created considerable of a stir in the house today. It was opened by Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts, who introduced the first measure upon the subject, who is one of the authors of the measure under discussion, and who has made a close study of the question for years. He submitted a host of figures showing that while in Kansas, Ohio, Indiana, and the northern and western states generally, there were cast from 10,000 to 110,000 votes at congressional elections, in Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, and other southern states, congressional elections were held where only from 3,000 to 10,000 votes were cast. There was only one explanation for this continued condition of affairs: voters were kept away from the polls, their votes suppressed, or the districts had a smaller representation of voters than the law requires.
Chairman Howell of Illinois made a large number of similar statements. The only man who attempted to explain the small vote at congressional elections in the south was Mr. Crisp of Georgia. He said the people did not take interest in congressional elections, that they remained away from the polls, and that if they did not want to vote and have their votes counted as cast it was the fault of the voters and no law could compel them to attend the elections. Mr. Howell replied that the object of the bill under discussion was to induce the people to vote by guaranteeing them safety at the polls and a fair count, to which no response was attempted, but the republican side smiled audibly and the hundreds of colored men in the galleries applauded so vigorously that the chair had to admonish them to desist. The burden of the complaint of the democratic members against the bill is that the certificates of the supervisors are made principal evidence of election and the clerk in making up the roll of the house will seat members who hold supervisors' certificates.
CHARLES H. MCKINNON'S WHEAT AGENCY.
Charles H. McKinnon, late purchasing agent for the Union Pacific at Omaha, is now and has been in or about Washington for several weeks. He was seen on the streets of Washington yesterday. His father, General Joe McKinnon, is one of the proprietors of Marshall Hall, a popular summer resort down the Potomac, and it is stated that his son is living with him. The son's friends say he refuses to talk about the charges made against him by Union Pacific officials.
THE ADMISSION OF WYOMING.
During the debate on Wyoming's admission this afternoon, Senator Paddock challenged Senator Jones's statement that the preliminaries to Wyoming's adoption of the constitution were unheard of and unusual and the vote cast for the constitution absurdly small on the basis of the population claimed. He took the floor and quoted the experience of Nebraska in advocacy of the Wyoming bill, explained the steps taken prior to Nebraska's admission, and showed the comparatively small vote cast for statehood. Senator Paddock insisted that the absence of opposition always results in a light vote, as it did in Nebraska and Wyoming, and made a strong plea for the admission of the territory. He was antagonized by Senator Hagan, who read from the records the Nebraska enabling act of 1887, which he claimed alone made possible the admission of the state. He subsided without a protest when Senator Paddock called his attention to the fact that the convention which assembled under the enabling act adjourned within an hour without action and that it was two years later before steps were taken through the territorial legislature for the admission of Nebraska as a state.
Miscellaneous.
Senator Manderson and Major Powell, superintendent of the geological survey, had a lengthy consultation this afternoon in regard to appropriations for irrigation and the repeal of the act of 1887, which withdraws from public entry lands. Major Powell disclaims all responsibility for this act and says he has no objection to its repeal, as he does not think that the great belt of country west of the Missouri which may be held from entry under this act should be kept out of the hands of the honest settlers who are willing to improve and irrigate them.
Senator Dawes reported favorably today the bill authorizing the secretary of the Interior to procure and submit to Congress a proposal for the sale to the United States of the western part of the Crow Creek Indian reservation in Montana. The bill is accompanied by an amendment providing for the appointment of a commission of three persons not residents of Montana to negotiate with the Crow Creeks for the purchase of their reservation. Nothing shall be valid until ratified by Congress. The amendment appropriates $5,000 for the expenses of the commission.
The Indian depredation claim of O. P. Beals of Stockville, which was allowed by the Indian office and sent to Congress in 1880, has been provided for through the influence of Senator Manderson by a specific item in the Indian bill.
Sergeant-at-Arms-Elect Valentino is here and expects to enter upon his official duties on next Monday.
Rev. J. E. Tate and wife of Shelton are here on their way home from Boston.
E. Gibbons has been appointed a fourth-class postmaster at Dyersville, Dubuque county, Iowa, vice H. W. Godson, resigned.
Special to The Bulletin. The Lower Brule Indians are actively agitating their removal to the south side of the mouth of White River. This question has for years worried them and they now become determined on moving; will take the matter into their own hands unless the government soon takes action. All but seventy-five of this tribe are anxious to move and it would not be a surprise if one day to see the whole outfit, bag and baggage, heading for the south to pitch their tents on the southern side of White River, where they claim the country is better than around the present agency.
They are liable to have trouble with the Rosebud Indians, however, should they attempt to move south of White River, as that country belongs to the Rosebuds, and they have notified the Lower Brules that they must not intrude upon their reservation or Indian blood will surely flow. These threats do not discourage the Brules in the least. The agent at Rosebud agency has entered a protest against the proposed removal and the matter has now been referred to the authorities at Washington. General Crook, while on the reservation last summer, promised these Indians that he would use his influence toward the removal and they believe that he did so before his death.
The International American Bank. Washington, June 20. Representative Dreyescu of Nebraska, from the committee on banking and currency, today reported a substitute for the bill for the incorporation of the International American bank. The substitute, while prescribing all the essential features of the original bill, has been drawn with the object of maintaining the largest and most thorough control of the corporation without making the government a party to or responsible for the business it may do.
Didn't Tar and Feather Him.
Kansas City, Mo., June 25. (A mob of about forty gathered at 12 o'clock last night at the house of Watt Squires near Cameron, Mo., to tar and feather his son James, who, it is asserted, ruined a young woman. About forty shots were exchanged, during which Watt Squires was shot in the stomach, though not fatally, and W. H. Noland of the mob was also wounded.
American Murderers in Mexico.
El Paso, Tex., June 26. C. H. "Walters was yesterday sentenced in the court at Paso del Norte, Mex., to be shot, and J. R. O'Laughlin was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment for killing a lewd woman in Paso del Norte in May 1897. The condemned men are both citizens of the United States and have appealed for protection.
Attempt to Derail a Train.
Havana, June 20. [Special Cablegram to The Bulletin], A gang of robbers attempted to derail a train between Aguada and Sabanilla yesterday. The train safely passed through a heavy fire fronted by the bandits. The latter have sent a threatening letter to the government authorities here. The government has taken measures to secure the capture of the bandits.
Hold Illinois Robbers.
Springfield, Ill., June 20. Robbers entered the house of Charles Decker, a well-to-do citizen, last night. Decker was confined to his bed with a broken collarbone, the result of an accident. The robbers attacked and beat him and his mother into insensibility. It is feared that both will die. Two men have been arrested and one has been identified as one of the robbers.
United Association of Lumbermen.
Chicago, June 20, The United association of lumbermen was formed here today, the membership to consist of the officers of all lumber associations in the United States. R. D. Gribble of Gainesville, Tex., was elected president, W. J. Sunderland of Omaha, treasurer, and W. H. Hollis, of Minnesota, secretary.
Ship Into a Lake.
New York, June 20. This morning, the locomotive, baggage car and two coaches of a train on the Delaware & Hudson road ran into Glen Lake, near Glen Falls. Most of the passengers were in the car which did not leave the track, and no one was seriously injured. The water was not deep, spreading of the rails caused the accident.
Withdrawn the Proposal.
London, June 20. [Special Cablegram to The Bulletin] In the house of commons today, W. H. Smith stated that the government, finding no alternative, withdrew the proposal relating to funds for the purchase of publicans' licenses. He would say at a further day what ought to be done with funds thus released.

Denver Convention.
Denver, Col., June 26.—The 24th annual convention of the Travelers' Protective association today elected T. S. Mel of St. Louis president.
THE FEDERAL ELECTION BILL,
Congressman Lodge of Massachusetts Opens the Debate in the House.
A FLIGHT OF ORATORY FROM THE SOUTH,
The Senate Resumes Confederation of the Hill for the Admission of
A Vote to be Taken Today.
Washington, June 26. In the house, upon motion of Mr. Duncanson of Minnesota, the house bill with the senate amendments authorizing the construction of a bridge across the Mississippi River at Winona, Minn., passed.
The house bill was passed granting fifteen days' leave to clerks in first and second-class post offices.
The regular order being demanded, Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts began the debate upon the national election bill.
He proceeded to sketch the bill in outline, and said the network which it was proposed to extend had been called into existence by the rampant frauds in the city of New York prior to 1870 and 1871. There were other cities and districts where the law was needed. The other side had criticized frauds committed in northern cities. He would put a secret official ballot in every election district, because he believed that was the only way to stop the use of money in elections. If the belief that such a thing as a fair election in the south was unknown, was true, then it was high time the United States should put a stop to the evil if it had to exercise every power the constitution put into its hands.
No intelligent and fair-minded man would deny that there had been frauds in the north. Where wrongdoing occurred it was where one party sought to get ahead of the other by vulgar means. As to the south, it was largely a question of race. The negro problem was one of the gravest before the American people. It was one in which all were concerned and were responsible, whether living in the north or the south. The bill had been called revolutionary. The revolution was to be found in the speeches he read, speeches which showed that constitutional representation did not exist. The national government must extend to every citizen the equal rights which the constitution guaranteed.
Mr. Hempfill of South Carolina argued that it was unconstitutional. It was not national, but sectional. There was no more iniquitous provision in the bill than the one providing for the appointment of an unlimited number of men absolutely under the direction of a supervisor. He had examined in detail the provisions relating to supervisors and said that the whole bill seemed framed against the voters and in favor of the supervisor. A good deal had been said about the new south, but what the country really needed was a new north, a north that will take a view suggested by facts and not by preconceived prejudices; that does not believe it has all the virtue and the rest of the country none; that would not waste all its time in remedying a supposed abuse of distant places; that would not think an Anglo-Baxon in the south always in the wrong when he has any trouble with the African. What was the use of talking about a free ballot in Kansas when the state had been so gerrymandered that 1870 ( ) democrats of Kansas had never been represented on this floor?
Mr. Kelley of Kansas asked: "How do you expect to get a democrat here when there are not four democratic counties in the state?" Mr. Hempfill replied: "It does not matter about how many democratic counties there are. The democrats have never been represented here. If there was a fair representation on this floor the proportion would be 10 1/2 democrats, 154 republicans, 5 prohibitionists and 2 labor men. Messrs. Hiscock and Evarts were on the floor of the senate misrepresenting the state of New York and the same was true of Connecticut, which had been democrats for years. When the republicans of the north had taken the beam out of their own eyes and fixed the laws so the people's wish might be honestly expressed, when they practiced as they preached, southern democrats would receive them with open arms. Under this system which it was proposed to revive the people of the south had been robbed some years ago by picked villains of the north, backed by the United States army. The south did not want to be put in that position again. "We," Mr. Hempfill continued, "know we must either rule that country or leave it. Now, for my part, before the people of the United States and before God, in all reverence, I swear we will not leave it. [Applause.] I do not hesitate to say that a colored man has as many rights as I have, but he cannot have his rights and mine, too, and this law is intended to put him again in control of the southern states, intended to awaken that race prejudice which is fast dying, intended to bring about that constant irritation and clash between the two colors in the south which will retard its growth and be destructive of the very principles of human government."
Mr. Hempfill was loudly applauded by the democrats as he sat down and nearly all of them pressed forward to congratulate him. Mr. Bingham, from the post office committee, reported the senate amendments to the post office appropriation bill and the house non-concurred in them.
Consideration of the election bill was resumed and Mr. Lowell of Illinois addressed the house in favor of it. He said the number was not few of those who believed that six years ago Cleveland was counted into the presidential chair by corrupt officials at the polls in his own state, to say nothing of the suppression of votes in the south, and the number was increasing every day of those who believed it. If that belief honestly existed ought it not to be the wish of every representative of the people to so conduct elections as to make the charge impossible of belief in the future! It was everywhere in northern circles believed that the black vote of the southern states was suppressed and the fifteenth amendment nullified, Messrs. Dates of Alabama, Crisp of Georgia, Lewis of Mississippi and others took occasion at this point to state that the elections in their districts were perfectly fair.
Mr. Rowell declared that in some districts of the south bodies of armed men went from poll to poll and destroyed the ballot boxes, in others the boxes were stuffed and the true ballots thrown away, in others military companies were organized to fire a cannon, morning and night, "to let the darkies know that there is going to be a fair election." Cabins of negroes were fired into, and if that were not successful and the negroes turned out the military officers made the polls a target for target practice.
Mr. Gates of Alabama asked for the names of the districts and Mr. Rowell named three in Mississippi and one in Arkansas. This brought Mr. McRae to his feet with a strong denial and soon he and Mr. Breckinridge were talking at the same time.
When quiet was restored Mr. Rowell finished his speech and Mr. Lichtenberg (republican) spoke against the bill. Such a law would bring about a conflict of authority and a deplorable state of affairs.
Mr. Tucker of Virginia also spoke against the bill and the house adjourned.
(Senate)
WASHINGTON, June 2, In the senate, among the bills reported from committees and placed on the calendar was the house bill to authorize the secretary of the Interior to procure and submit to congress proposals for the sale of the western part of the Crow Indian reservation in Montana.
The resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Cull directing the secretary of the senate to prepare a table showing the number of bills introduced by each senator and the number of them passed, was taken up, and Mr. Edmunds moved to lay the resolution on the table.
After an explanation by Mr. Cull of his motive in offering the resolution, the motion to lay on the table was agreed to.
The house bill for the admission of Wyoming as a state was taken up and Mr. Jones of Arkansas addressed the senate. He declared himself in favor of the admission of Wyoming and of all other territories except Utah when they had sufficient population and sufficient wealth to justify their assumption of state governments. But he was unwilling to see Wyoming admitted in the way now proposed, and he proceeded to state the reasons why, in his opinion, the passage of the pending bill would be exceedingly unwise.
There was no authority for holding a constitutional convention, Mr. Jones said, and he opposed the participation of women in the vote on the convention. He opposed the constitutional provisions for woman suffrage, for the holding of real estate by aliens and for compulsory education. In conclusion, Mr. Jones declared himself in favor of passing an enabling act for all the territories except Utah and admitting them as states after they had compiled with the provisions of the act, and he moved as a substitute for the pending bill one for such an enabling course. In the further course of his arguments, Mr. Jones referred to the wives of Mormons in Wyoming and Idaho voting and said in answer to Mr. Morgan that he did not know how many wives a Mormon had to vote with him.
Mr. Stewart replied to Jones and said it would be time enough to act on the cases of the other territories when they were before the senate. They were not before it now.
Mr. Reagan opposed the bill. He argued against the provision for woman suffrage, the effect of which was, he said, to make men of women and consequently to make women of men. It was only lately that the people had become wiser than their creator and wiser than all generations that preceded them.
At the close of Mr. Reagan's speech the understanding was reached that the vote on the bill and amendments should begin at 4 o'clock tomorrow.
Mr. Edmunds wanted it understood that it did not amount to an order of the senate. There ought to be one body in the country, he said, where there was freedom of debate.
The following bills were taken from the calendar and passed: House bill to provide for a term of court at Danville, Ill.; senate bill to aid the state of South Dakota to support a school of mines, donating 50 percent of the money received from the sale of mineral land, not to exceed $12,500 a year, nor to exceed the amount contributed by the state. After executive session, the senate adjourned.
THE WORLD'S FAIR COMMISSIONERS. They Hold Their First Meeting In Chicago Yesterday.
CHICAGO, June 20. The world's fair national commissioners began their first meeting at noon today. Judge John T. Harris of Virginia was chosen temporary chairman and made a brief speech, reviewing the historical significance of the work in hand.
After the speeches, the roll of the 100 persons who make up the full commission was called. A few state commissioners were absent. All the commission members were present except Mr. Henry Exall of Texas, who telegraphed that he had missed a train.
A resolution by J. H. McKenzie of Kentucky that a committee of twelve on permanent organization be appointed to recommend to the commission the names of permanent officers created a warm discussion. It was finally amended to the effect that the committee shall merely point out the offices and the duties of these who shall fill them without recommending the nomination of anyone.
John Boyd Thompson of New York stated that the New York commissioners had been requested by Chauncey M. Dunbar to say that his name should not be used in connection with the presidency of the commission.
Colonel H. C. Corbin, USAR, was made temporary sergeant-at-arms.
Chairman Harris then announced the committee on permanent organization as follows: McKenzle of Kentucky, Ewing of Illinois, McDonald of California, Samally of Vermont, Cochran of Texas, Widener of Pennsylvania, Goodell of Colorado, Breslin of New York, Martindale of Indiana, Harrison of Minnesota, sets and Keogh of North Carolina.

TILDE OVER WITH RACK.
Wabash and Canadian Pacific Head off the Grand Trunk,
QUIETLY STEAL A MARCH,
There Will Be an Excitingly Lively Meeting of the Central Traffic Association.
CHICAGO, June 20. [Special Telegram to THE BEE:] The Wabash and Canadian Pacific did not wait for the annual Trunk this time and have dealt with the Interstate Commerce commission a tariff reducing the rate on dressed beef, Chicago to St. Louis, with proportionate rates to other points to 50 cents, effective June 10. The Wabash thus assumes the right to the annual Trunk differential and introduces a brand new freight rate.
Central traffic officials are boiling over with rage at the Wabash and an exceedingly lively time will be had at the next meeting of the Central Traffic association.
The Way Clear For an Advance.
CHICAGO, June 20. [Special Telegram to THE BEE:] For the first time in four months, the way is apparently clear for an advance in western rates. Yesterday's meeting encountered no opposition in advancing through rates to the northwest from interior points. It was consequently decided this morning to call a general meeting of all western lines to take action next Wednesday. At that time, the committee appointed some time since on advancing rates and of which Vice President Northwest of the Northwestern is chairman, will submit its report.
This report goes fully into the cause of the reduction and the necessity for an advance in rates. Figures show that this year's remarkable tonnage is the only thing which has kept western roads from each "showing a deficit."
To provide for the future, therefore, and especially to avoid keeping the reduced basis in effect until it is thought it will be permanent, the following advances are recommended:
To St. Paul and Minneapolis, an advance in the proportions of through rates from interior points to the present local basis of 10 cents; at the close of navigation, that the proportions of through rates from the seaboard be advanced from the present 22 cent scale to 60 cents and that the local basis be advanced from the present 10 cents to 15 cents; to Missouri river gateways from Chicago, that the present local basis of 10 cents be advanced to 70 or 73 cents and that through rates be advanced in proportion.
There is hardly any question that the report of the committee will be unanimously adopted and the advanced scale go into effect in ten days from next Wednesday.

Day of the Tournament.
PLATTSMOUTII , Nob. . Juno 20. [ Special
to Tin : BKK.J The weather during the last
day of the tournament llko the first two
' clear , but very warm. In the morning the
visiting teams and strangers began tOjiissom-
blo on Main street , where at 11 o'clock ' the
vf'oi test was hold. Only thrco companies en
tered , and the F. K. White's No. 1 of Platts-
mouth won the prize , an elegant gold medal ;
time U7 seconds ,
Hun of 100 yards and got water The Ash-
lanil team pot no time , as owing to the great
pressure it blew the nozzle off.
In the afternoon tlio crowd was greater
than either proceeding day at the race , owing
to the fact Unit the Nevilles were to run
again for the championship curt and the free-
for-all huso nice would take place , when it
was confidently hoped and expected that the
world's record would bo broken. There were
runners here , champions of many status ,
who could not enter anything else.
The band contest was listened to by n largo
concourse of people and the music rendered
was elegant. Tlio Ancient Order of Hiber
nian hand of Omaha was awarded the first
prize , the City hand second and the Union
Pacific band third. The decision was fair
and well received.
Through the thrco days of the tournament ,
with the crowds that have been coming and
going , and taking into consideration that
there was a circus hero t > i first day , very
little thieving or crooked work was done.
Tile police have exerted every effort to keep
the loughs , who always attend such assem
blies , suppressed.
The visitors express themselves as well sat
isfied with our city and citizens , who have
made their visit a pleasant one.
The free-for-all race at 1 : ! ! 0 p. m. was as

York made a balk hi coupling and no time
was given.
The Nevilles wore tiuiQd by many disinter
ested spectators , who caught their time at US.
They protested and the Judges would not lis
ten to them. They gnvo up in disgust and
would not run the state hose race.
The Nevilles claim the timekeepers were
paid , us it is known positively that ono judge
had a watch that would not run at the meet
ing of the. board of control tonight.
Kearney was awarded the state and free-
for-all raees. This again was protested , the
board states that the Nevilles wore loaded
with professionals and the .Nevilles claim the
Kearney team also had two professionals in
it. The rules distinctly say that a profes
sional is a man who makes a livelihood by
sprinting. It can bo proven \ty \ those rules
that thorn was not a professional on the
ground.
All the judges have not signed the de
cisions and they say nothing short of a man
damus will make them sign. Much dissatis
faction is expressed by all the teams on ac
count of the way the board inn the races.
Nebraska City was barred out of the free-
for-all on some pretext not yet made public.
There certainly was some collusion with the
board.
The couplers' contest to rules was won by
Tony Cornelius of Kearney. The ladder
climbing contest closed the day's sports ,
Gqthlngcr of the Nebraska City winning
over Walter Scott of the Plattsmouth team.

the past two months in a vain search for

IN A GIRL'S Sl'UnlO.
Typical Surroundings of a "Girl
Bachelor" ol'tli'Dny.
I see there nro people who object to
the phrase "girl bachelor. " They ask
us to bo { rank tind sny "old maid. " But
when the msiid is a young one , not yet
twenty-six , there is no expression which
so well decribes for you her free and
independent existence , , says a Now York
letter to the Pittsburg Loader. A few
days ago I had a glimpse of a charming
girl's studio , decorated , I believe by the
girl. It is a room of moderate size in a
house which shelters a number of these
detached women. Most of them work at
one thing or nnotlun' and enjoy good in
comes. They form a delightful colony.
'rills' particular don is the abode of a
particularly clover young woman. The
HOOP is of bricks , painted yellow and
spread with rugs in shades of yellow and
brown. The walls have been washed in
a cloudy brown , the cllect of which is
rather ancient and mellow and al-
logother agreeable. Above this is a
frieze of yellow , on which are strokes of
quaint figures in brown. The coiling is
a creamy tint , splashed hero and there
with a ruddy light in old red or gold.
There is a firoplacu in one corner , built
of yellow bricks , and the windows are
curtained with soft woolen stuffs in
yellow. The chairs are in antique
shapes in yellow-brown oak , and a big
divan is heaped with cushions which
repeat the colors. Tlio wallb are hung
with etchings and these are in oak
frames. Over the doors there are
shelves' , and on these , and on the mantle ,
and in the window and in various odd
corners are brpwn and yellow jugs ,
which I last saw tilled with buuttorcups
nestled among' maiden-hair ferns. The
girl was serving ' lunch and she
spread it on a tawny yellow
otath and in yellowish Japanese
china. I do not suppose I have given
you an idea of the studio , but it is a
pretty don and illustrates the progress
of the girl bachelor. She is perhaps
you have guessed it red-headed and of
jxquisitoly fair complection. She wears
i tea gown of China silk of a warm cream
tone , with front of brown Do you un
derstand' now the significance of tire
color scheme ? The room is designed to
suit the skin of its owner and her curls.
o
'I hey Took In the Lions.
Rev. Dr. KOIT , pastor of the Common
LeveL church in llockford , 111. , tolls a
Chicago Tribune reporter that when ho
was in London recently , ho wont over to
Trafalgar square. Ho. saw the lions
about the monument as Landscor had di
rected. "While looking nt them a
countryman of the Josh Whitcomb typo
joined him. The great doctor of the
now mode of getting to heaven greeted
Ins countryman , and the two took in the
lions together.
"They ain't alike , " said the Yankee.
Dr. Kerr explained that it was not in
tended they should bo. "Thoro is one , "
ho said , "representing Peace England
at peace. Another peers outward. That
represents tlio idea of Manifest Destiny.
Another is an attitude of forooity , rep
resenting War. The fourth has its
young In its embrace- There is the idea
of Protection. "
The Yankee looked at the lions as the
preacher explained why it was that all
Lho lions were not made alike. Then
the Yankee kicked ono of the cast
animals. , and as hu did so an expression
of glee 'cnniu oveu his face.
"Say ; Dee , " ho exclaimed , "dttrnod if

The Grand onorn house was filled to the
utmost last night by an nudlcnco which
desplto the temperature , listened with Inter
cat and attention to the fourth annual com
mcnccmcnt exercises of the Omaha high
school. The sixty-six members of the class
of ' 00 , the gentlemen In black , the ladies In
snowy white , slowly took their places upoi
the stage , marching In time with the music
of the orchestra , The llpwers , the class
colors , old gold and rose , the fluttering fans
the bright and Intelligent faces of the
graduates , gave the scene attractive am
cheerful appearance. At the loft nvo llttlo
flower girls , Winifred Gray , Ella Cotton ,
Grace Gapon , Blanche Ilosowater and IClttlo
Polaek , were seated only to bo Interrupted at
the close of every piece to carry the Innum
erable flowers to each triumphant speaker.
The exercises commenced with an essay
upon "Tho Music of the Future,1
read 'in n pleasing nnd gracofu'
manner by Aliss Minnie Burgland
Stio began by tracing the history of otrui
music from its birtli in Italy Italy whoso
language Is moloily. Melody , however , had
existed from the Genesis , ever slnco man per
ceived that ho could utter sounds in his efforts
to reproduce nature's harmonies. Thus
music , in the early ages , portrayed nature.
Grecian drama gave it a now impetus , but
there was nothing in Uomun music beyond a
coarse imitation. During the middle ages
there was a longing for the supernatural
which music alone could express. The human
voice was used to display the bo.mtlos of
sound , and meaningless words were sot to
music , making Italian opera a moro exhibi
tion of skill. It was against the omnipotence
of the singer that the German composers ,
under the leaa of Beethoven , protested. Bo-
fora this time musician and poet had acted
separately. Now the musician must bo a
poet.
ft remained for Wagner to carry on the
master's work. Ho invented nothing. Ho
collected and combined all the arts into ono
grand theme. In the Greek drama ho
found the chorus Imparting intensity.
Mozart taught him exquisite touch ;
Weber , the secret o'f pure melody ;
Beethoven supplied him with a powerful
music capable of holding in suspense a vast
throng of emotions ; Shuoert gave him free
dom of song ; Chopin , the magic elasticity of
chords ; Shakespeare , Goethe and Schiller
suggested his language. With these ho com
bined beauty of scenery. "Music is still tlio
youngest of the arts , yet already adopted ns
the national art of Germany. Soon it must
stand as the mightiest. For from the first ,
music is the ono touch of nature , making the
Whole world kin which lends a golden hue
to life's tide as it glides along. "
Mr. Arthur Montmorency followed with an
oration upon the "Franchise , " which ho de
livered with a clear and distinct voice.
" 'Wo hold these truths to bo self-evident
that all men are created equal. ' These
words , " said ho , "aro the guiding spirit of
the grand document in which they occur.
They were written under peculiar circum
stances by men who had submitted to n series
of persecutions. The change from political
subjugation to absolute freedom was a great
ono. Hudlcal measures would have been
natural. But they were not taken. Still
there was ono point in which a little more
conservatism would have been in place. This
was , In according , Indiscriminately , the right
to vote to all inaio citizens. Every man had
u voto.
"In recent times the advisability and justice
of this has been questioned. It Is certainly
not the best with a population such as ours
now is. Men who have nothing but what
they have on their backs borrow money and
emigrate to the United States. Hero they
work at miserable wages und do not associate
with English-speaking people. Yet these
men , In two to five years , become voters nnd
exercise the right of franchise.
"Tho result of this system Is that ono man
who employs many can control an election.
This condition of affairs should bo remedied.
It might bo partially prevented by a restric
tion of immigration. There are , however ,
many reasons why this would not bo wlso.
Bomo graduation of the suffrage must bo put
in force. Education Is hero not only free ,
but compulsory. So thoio can bo no taint of
injustice in nn educational requirement. No
person ought to exercise a privilege In oppo
sition to the Interests of the community.
Some object that a restriction of the suffrage
would deprive the lower classes qf Its edu
cating influence. What Is there in it ? Are
not the men whom the ballot educates these
who would educate themselves } Will not
the uneducated put forth every effort to
qualify themselves for the franchise !
"No aspoctof the question has received
moro attention than "woman's rights. " The
most logical objection to woman's ' exercise of
the franchise Is that her mental
construction is different from that of
man : that she Is impulsive. Might
not tlio impulse bo the correct ono ! All ob
jections to woman suffrage are easily disposed
of. There are no good and valid reasons why
Bomo women , nt least , should not voto. It
would undoubtedly bo dangerous to grant
suffrage to all women indiscriminately. Wo
must reform the ono evil before the other.
Our government Is now the most liberal upon
which the sun shines , but If these reforms
were accomplished , it would moro than over
bo a government of the people , by the people ,
and for thu people. "
The "Novelette" of Shnman given ns n
piano solo by Miss Harriet E. Brown showed
not only careful practice but also consider
able musical talent nnd clllelted a hearty
applause and many flowers.
The next exorcise consisted of the reading of
a well written essay entitled "Tho Use and
Abuse of Ambition , " by Miss Eugenia Get/-
nor.
nor.Miss Gotner called upon the muse for n defi
nition of her theme. It re-echoed that "am
bition Is n glorious cheat , a spell that murders
sleep and in his victim's ear whispers a death
less word. The hoary ages of the past stand
to show that ambition is the most essential
quality of the human mind. By Its mighty
haui ] , It lifts an otherwise Indifferent medlocro
to the level of a Cajsar or a Cicero. Truly , then ,
the destructlvoolTect of ambit Ion has not arisen
from its use but solely from its abuse. It is
the procurer of evil ns well ns ttio almoner of
good. Yet her victims bow before the shrine
Of their devotion for the praises of the world
today , tomorrow its execrations.
"In biblical times oven the angels were
prey to ambition's nil-pervading Influence.
From the expulsion of man from Eden , the
retrogression of human nature began , until
ho became llttlo moro than a beast of the for
est. From this state , ambition alone was able
to excite and nrgo him. But with civilization
man learned to abuse the hand that led him. "
The speaker then considered the motives
which inspired some illustrious men of his
tory. Alexander was led by love of glory.
Ciusnr was ambitious. Napoleon Bonaparte
was a zealous devotee of this vice. How dif
ferent was the motive whluh Inspired Wash
ington. No pure love of liberty could have
inducou man to bravo these storms. Thus
ambition has caused the downfall of muuy a
man In the midst of Booming pros'p'orlty and
renown , and lmi been prone to sting the most
devoted yet abused sluvai , Yet overv lasting
victory , every reformation , every fnvqntlon
niul discovery Is butr the outcome of. dUel-
pllned ambition.
Mr. Larimoro Dcntso then recited with
much spirit the fiery description of tlio char-
lot race la Ben Hur ,
"Is the modern heroine born or made , must
she wait for thu opportunity ui make-It Her
self ! " With this ( lueUIon Miss 'Alleo II.
Howell commenced her oasay ujwa itho
"Modern Horolno. " "From thooarllosttlniM
history Is full of heroic women. But tluxdln
ofviir surround ; ) them. In the story of their
lives the modern heroine will find llttlo to In-
splro and much to repel. It may bo by genius
or mercy that these nanuu are Inserlbod on
the annals of fame , but In each cane It U thu
manifestation of an heroic puri > o o. I'erhaps
nowhere has the courage to dare and do , been
more strlliinly Illustrated than In the manner
In which the uiodum heroin u has worked her
way up to nTglior education. Even In the "time
of our motti6n4woman wai excluded from
the avenues of higher culture. In the million ,
moro or luftLgJrl graduates of the class of
IBWin Amojiar tiioro nro doubtless n sufll-
ctcnt nmnboM ( > ( heroine * to take the place of

"But whi 11 to become of the steady-
Roing ovoriyfday girls ! May nny , may

may not , th6 trouble llos In ourselves. It has
been customary to extol the pilgrim fathers.

' 'Tho modern ; heroine will bo n woman true
to herself arid to her God. She Is ono whoso

tender voice vrll win back the erring , seethe

oine of the household. This heroine will not
bo a recluse , but will partake of social relax
ation. She will make her homo a place of
welcome to all. She will bo familiar with the
current of contemporary thought. Here ,
surely , la work to bo done by the modern
heroine and she may seek none other , none
higher. "
Mr. Fred S. Nnvo then appeared nt the
front of the stage nnd proceeded to discuss
ono of our "American problems. "
"In the history of the United States many
problems have troubled American statesmen.
Now , as before , statesmen are confronted bv
grave Issues. That of forelgnlsm is ono well
worthy of attention. In order to populate the
vast unpeopled domain of this land , the gov
ernment not only Invited but even persuaded
members of all nations to como and settle it.
The prize of office nnd of citizenship was
added to other allurements. Thesapromlscs
made were religiously kept. In the earlier
times the immigrants were honost.industrlous
ixjoplo with good motives and high alms. But
latterly the character of the incoming horde
has changed. Paupers , vagrants , conslrators
and a great moss of nondescripts have
thronged to our shores. Through it own gen
erosity our nation has Introduced not only
elements of weakness but others menacing
the stability of our free Institutions. No gov
ernment on earth except our own grants an
universal suffrage even to its own sons , much
less to Its alien population. To conciliate
the foreign vote is tlio aim of all parties. So
that clement now determines which side of
the political balance shall go down. To catch
these various voted , each party puts a plank
into its platform declaring Its firm belief In
'Homo llulo for Ireland' or other measures.
But nothing Is dpno to conciliate the Ameri
can voto. Many foreigners are nn honor to
the hind of their adoption. But for the bone-
lit of those , should the vast and uneducated
majority become voters to the hurt of our
country !
"But what can bo done ! Many ways have
been suggested. Let longer residence bo re
quired Iwfore citizenship Is conferred.
American boys wait twenty-one years ; why
should not aliens do the same ! Require
education and good character qualifications.
If these measures were adopted , our country
would bo truly a refuge for the oppressed.
Then might wo surely hope to perpetuate tea
a thousand generations the liberties of a
great people , frco but at the same time self
governed. "
A musical interlude was greatly npprcci-
ntcd bv the audience in the piano duct.
"Postillion D'Amour ' , " exquisitely rendered
by Misses Elizabeth Llddoll and Paulina Col-
lott , nnd each of the fair pianists was re
quired to bow a reply to the applause.
Miss Edna Ha'ruoy followed with n fine
recitation of i tlio't well known story of John
Burns nt Gettysburg as quaintly told in ono
of Bret Harte's poems.
Miss Louise F. Holtorf gnvo two vocal se
lections , "Spring\ind Autumn , " by Poruzzi ,
nnd a "Voniti'an ' , Boat Song , " by Blumen-
tlnil , giving evidence of a well-trained , sweet ,
and pleasinir voice. The nudicncb was not
satisfied until an- extra bow had been given In
recognition of its bnthusinsm.
f The closing literary exercise of the even
ing was given by Mr. Harry L. Akin. In a
masterly mhnnor. ho presented nn oration
upon the "Pardoning Power , " prepared and
delivered with care.
"It has been taken for granted , " said bo ,
"that no valid objection could be made to the
; heory of the pardoning power. The gover
nors of most slate , * have the right to pardon
criminals , for i thu exercise of which rights
; hey are not obliged to give the reasons in-
luoncing them' . According to the American
dca , no net 'for'whieh ' ' i-easons cannot bo
given ought to stand. After throwing difll-
cultios about conviction , after giving a pre
sumption of Inmx'onco. wo give the convict
iborty to porsuaao the executive by any
neans in his power to forgive him. The flrst
iroccedings have been public. But no sooner
ms sentence been pronounced than a differ
ent scene begins. The council for the defense
exerts all power to obtain a pardon. Peti
tions are circulated and signed for the same
) urposo. Tlieu the soigo begins. Every at-
empt Is made to influence the governor's
eelfngs. The final judge remembers that no
ustlflcation of a pardon is required and it is
jranted.
"Tho chief end of punishment is the public
vclfaro. Its most salutary Ingredient is its
certainty. Wo cannot abolish the pardoning
> owcr altogether ; for Innocent men may bo
convicted. But even in these cases the pir- :
loning power Is often misused. To provide
or instances where an innocent man may bo
condemned , or a slight offense bo visited with
oo severe a penalty , let us have a court of
evislon. Then whether the prisoner bo richer
or pool1 , if ho is able to produce evidence of
vrongful conviction , lot him bo vindicated.
V pardon is usually regarded as an act of
clemency , an indulgence truly an innocent
man wants no such pardon. What ho do-
nands Is justice , not indulgence. "
As evidence of the four years of consclen-
.Sous study la the high school , Hon. C. F.
Uoodman. after making n short address , pre
sented a diploma to each of the graduates on
johalf of the board of education. The class
s the largest that has over been graduated in
Dmnha nnd contains a much larger propor-
ion of boys than over before. The careful
supervision and work of the teach
ers were clearly shown In the

CIIICAOO , Juno 20. [ Special TMcgrnm to
Tun Br.K.j The case of Patrick Crowe ,
charged with nn assault with nn intent to kill
Oftlcer Isaac Milton Llavlllc , was concluded
shortly after noon today , as far ns the cvl
dcnco was concerned , and Assistant State
Attorney Wesley began his opening address
nt ! 3 o'clock. Half a dozen witnesses were
called by the defense during the
morning to patch up the claim of
Crowe's Insanity , but their evidence
was so slight that the state did
not think It necessary to offer anything In
rebuttal , The defendant himself was not put
on the stand , but sat quietly behind his
counsel during the-sosslon. But It was hard
to look llko a lunatic , nnd not succeeding
very well , W. L. Gllhooly , conductor on the
street railway in Omaha for which Grown
worked last summer , said that after the lat
ter waa hurt In an accident In September ho
acted crazy. Ho would go In his car and nsk
lady passengers If ho could make love to
them.
Patrick Crowe , sr. , father of the defendant ,
said his son was twenty-one years old ami
was never In a shooting scrape nnd never
stole anything before. Ho loft homo this
spring one night because hh wife would not
leave the house with him. Ho Jumped out of
the window nnd fired two shots into the
house.
Mary Vaughn , the defendant's sister ,
thought her brother was crazy und also an
other brother Anthony , who Is working now ,
however , for Armour & Co.
Orrln Quaekcnboar , u carpenter who had
worked for Crowo , thought the latter was
crazy because ho had talked and acted
strangely In paying him.
Several witnesses testified to Crowe's good
reason before ho came to Chicago in Feb
ruary and the case was closed.
On this slender thread of evidence Mr.
Gannon of Omaha and Mr. W. A. Foster will
endeavor to convince the jury that Crowo
should not bo held responsible for his
desperate acts.
The case will bo given to the jury In Judge
Grinnell's court some time tomorrow and it
is not believed that it will take them long to
dispose of the plea of the defense that ho was
insane when ho shot and tried to kill Isaac
M. Linvillo. The defense concluded their
case today and Assistant State's Attorney
Jseely uid not think it necessary to offer any
thing in rebuttal. Ho began his opening ar
gument at 'J o'clock and M. V. Gannon of
Omaha followed for the defendant
Half a dozen witnesses were heard on
Crowe's behalf , nnd all advanced more or less
rluuslblo reasons for believing that hoW3
insane.
Charles Hnsbrook , an Omaha druggist ,
considered him crazy , because the prisoner
told htm a few days before ho came to Chicago
cage that ho was going to buy out Armour's
packing houso.
In his opening speech Mr. Neoly contended
that Crowe was not crazy , but a wicked , des
perate , cool-headed young man who had laid
his evil plans carefully in advance of their
execution. The prisoner's remarks after his
arrest , that "they can't hang mo If Brisooo
does die. " proved that.
Mr. Cannon went over the evidence from
the opposite point of view , making a plausible
argument on the theory of Crowe's Insanity.
Ho insisted that it had been proven beyond
any reasonable doubt.
SHE TIIHKW HIM OVKK.
A Professional Hotel Worker's Girl
Getp Him Into SerioiiH Trouble.
Sam II. Williams , a professional hotel
worker from Kansas City , is In the Omaha
jail , and It all comes about on account of his
best girl , Emma Blackmail , of the same place ,
having thrown him over.
Williams has a good game , nnd ono that ,
when he is not in jail , ought to bring him in a
good revenue.
Monday morning , clean shaved and dressed
In n suit of stylish clothes , ho struck the Paxton -
ton hotel and ordered the beat room in the
house , I'opresoiiting that ho was traveling for
Bullmire , Moores , Emery & Co. , wholesale
dry goods dealers of Kansas City , and was
working up a great Omaha trade. During
the afternoon ho Informed Air. Sherman , the
day clerk , that ho was a llttlo pressed for
money , and it would bo a great accommoda
tion if ho would cash n § 100 cheek on the
homo house. Mr. Sherman was suspicious ,
so Williams telegraphed , addressing the mes
sage to ! i.l West Fourth street , which was
the residence number of the Blackmail
woman. She , however , failed to do her duty
by not telegraphing back that the check was
O. K.
The telegram was handed over to Chief
Spears , and after interviewing the firm ho
telegraphed Chief Seavey to arrest Williams ,
as ho was wanted for hotel beating.
The fact that the woman has gone back on
Williams Is mauo clear by the correspondence
which she has hud with tlio young man , and
which is now in the hands of the pollco. In
the latter she is instructed to receive all tele
grams and letters sent to Bnllmiro , Moore ,
Emory & Co. , and in answering them state
that Williams' drafts will always bo honored.

John Matthews , the farmer from La

against the saloon man comes on for trial this
afternoon.

A Now VorkSociety Girl Followed Her
Hetrotlird in a Call.
Miss Alice Hastings is one of the most
pronounced belles of the season , says aNew
Now York dispatch to the San Francisco
Examiner. She is nineteen vours of ngo ,
a decided blonde , witli pearly tcoth and
golden tresses , and she resides on Fifth
avenue near the reservoir.
Johnor as ho is more familiarly known
"Jack" Watson , is twonty-tliroo years of--
ago , a son of a retired stockbroker , and
when in town makes the Gilsey house hia
headquarters.
The young man is widely known about
town by reason of his handsome appear
ance , his swagger , his English clothes
and his good-fellowship.
Until recently Louis Hastings and
.Tack Watson were the bust of friends ,
and following the natural course of
events , young Hastings invited Watson
to call at his homo.
This was early in March and a wnwi %
friendship at once sprung up botwooiiV
Alice Hastings and Jack Watson. Since \t
then the young couple have boon seen ' * >
almost continually together , and it was
an open secret that they wore to bo mar
ried in the fall.
Of late , however , young Watson is al
leged to have grossly neglected his
fair Hanceo , lavishing instead his alToc-
tions , together with pretty bouquets ,
costly rings and toothsome hon bens ,
upon'one of the fair chorus girls in an
uptown theater whore comic opera reigns
supremo. '
Recently Miss Hastings became suspifa *
cious that her handsome cavalier was
playing her false , and therefore , in con
junction with her brother Louis , she
laid in wait in a coupe ono night about
Iwo weeks ago opposite the stage door of
tlio theater.
After the performance the Murray
Hill belle evinced the most poignant
grief when she behold her aflianced
husband assist her pretty rival Into ,
hansom cab. '
Watson was just about to follow when
young Jlastlngs sprang from the coupe ,
and running across the street , smote his
sister's betrothed on the face with a
glove , as ho exclaimed :
"Coward , you have broken Alice's
heart. You may consider your engage
ment at an end. Henceforth you need
not resort to subterfuge to drive around
town with your painted beauty. "
The men glared at each other floiroly
for a moment , and Jack Watson raised
his hand to strike Ills chum , but the
spectators of this strange scene inter
fered and bundled young Hastings back
into his coupe.
Two days later Watson loft suddenly
for Europe. Buforo sailing ho sent Miss
Hustings a threatening note and fol
lowed this up with a summons in a suit
for 8iW,00 ( ) damages for breach o
promise.
Miss Hastings has placed tlio matter
in tlio hnndi of her lawyer , Silas M.
Stillwoll , who says ho will have young
Watson arrested on his return to tills
city for having sent his client a vile and
threatening letter through the mails.

AN OLD, MUSTY REVOLVER,

Became Necessary.
A BOY AT STERLING SHOOTS HIMSELF,
Cries People in Trouble ) A family
Hey and a Big Firecracker
At Work.
STERLING, Neb., June 26. [Special to THE
BEE, ] Yesterday a seven-year-old boy of
Mr. Hughes, living seven miles north of
this place, stole an old revolver out of the
house and went about a quarter of a mile
from the house to practice shooting, when in
some inexplicable way he shot himself, the
ball entering about two inches below the
heart. He walked back to the house and
three doctors were called, but they could do
no good, as he died in less than twelve
hours after the accident. His parents are almost
crazed with grief.
Circus People in Trouble.
Brainier, Neb., June 20. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE. ] The clerk of the district court today issued an order of attachment against the Sells & Anderson * circus,
which exhibits at Blue Springs tonight. The
complaint was sworn out by attaches of the
concern for back wages aggregating $1,000.
Elijah Jones served the writ this afternoon.
Contractors Get Action.
SPITZERBERG, Neb., June 26. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE. ] J. A. Ware & Son, railroad contractors, arrived here this evening
with sixty teams and means to commence
work on the Hook Island branch from South
Omaha to Lincoln. The line goes east of this
place two miles. J. D. Sinclair offered
1.5 miles of right-of-way if they would run
the line through here, but the offer was not
accepted.
Day of the Tournament.
PLATTSMOUTH, Neb., June 20. [Special to THE BEE.] The weather during the last day of the tournament was like the first two
clear, but very warm. In the morning the
visiting teams and strangers began to
assemble on Main street, where at 11 o'clock
the drill test was held. Only three companies entered,
and the F. K. White's No. 1 of Plattsmouth won the prize, an elegant gold medal; time 27 seconds,
Hose of 100 yards and got water. The Ashland team put no time, as owing to the great
pressure it blew the nozzle off.
In the afternoon the crowd was greater
than either preceding day at the race, owing
to the fact that the Nevilles were to run
again for the championship chart and the free-
for-all hose race would take place, when it
was confidently hoped and expected that the
world's record would be broken. There were
runners here, champions of many states,
who could not enter anything else.
The band contest was listened to by a large
concourse of people and the music rendered
was elegant. The Ancient Order of Hibernians
hand of Omaha was awarded the first
prize, the City hand second and the Union
Pacific band third. The decision was fair
and well received.
Through the three days of the tournament,
with the crowds that have been coming and
going, and taking into consideration that
there was a circus here to the first day, very
little thieving or crooked work was done.
The police have exerted every effort to keep
the roughs, who always attend such assemblies,
suppressed.
The visitors express themselves as well satisfied with our city and citizens, who have
made their visit a pleasant one.
The free-for-all race at 1:30 p.m. was as
follows: Hose race, purse, $100; first prize,
$50; second prize, $30; Wideawakes, Kearney,
Kafirnony, 1:30; Coreans, York, 10 time; Neville, Plattsmouth, 8:45. The Coreans of York made a balk in coupling and no time
was given.
The Nevilles were followed by many disinterested spectators, who caught their time at 9:30.
They protested and the Judges would not listen to them. They gave up in disgust and
would not run the state hose race.
The Nevilles claim the timekeepers were
paid, as it is known positively that one judge
had a watch that would not run at the meeting of the board of control tonight.
Kearney was awarded the state and free-
for-all races. This again was protested, the
board states that the Nevilles were loaded
with professionals and the Nevilles claim the
Kearney team also had two professionals in
it. The rules distinctly say that a professional is a man who makes a livelihood by
sprinting. It can be proven by those rules
that there was not a professional on the
ground.
All the judges have not signed the decisions and they say nothing short of a mandamus will make them sign. Much dissatisfaction is expressed by all the teams on account of the way the board ran the races.
Nebraska City was barred out of the free-
for-all on some pretext not yet made public.
There certainly was some collusion with the
board.
The couplers' contest to rules was won by
Tony Cornelius of Kearney. The ladder
climbing contest closed the day's sports,
Gottlinger of the Nebraska City winning
over Walter Scott of the Plattsmouth team.
Time, average for three trials, 74-5. The
contest was to run thirty yards and climb a
twenty-foot ladder against time.
The Yorks were granted a new trial in the
green race because of the breaking of their
hose.
The Beatrice Chautauqua.
BEATRICE, Neb., June 26. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE. ] The second annual assembly of the Beatrice Chautauqua began this evening under the most favorable conditions. The attendance was quite large and there is every prospect of a most successful season. The feature of the evening was the address of Hon. Thomas M. Taylor on modern wonders. The grounds are in superb condition and pronounce clean and neat as a well-kept park. THE QUARTET program contemplates
the initial meeting of the normal classes; a lecture
on "The Cranks," by Hon. T. M. Taylor; "Our Girls, Their Work and Worthiness," Mrs. M. E. Griffiths; a roundtable evening lecture, "Alcohol and Its Diseases," with stereopticon views, by Prof. C. M. Ellwood.
Doane Commencement.
CRETE, Neb., June 20. [Special to THE BEE.] The closing act of the commencement week drama of Doane college was witnessed here today by an audience that crowded the Congregational church, which was beautifully decorated for the occasion. There were eight graduates, as follows: Classical, J. N. Bennett - Crete; F. A. Castle, Wison; G. I. Gilbert, Exater; C. S. Andrews, Crete. Scientific, A. K. Fowler, Ansley; Mary Bruch, Plainview City; Fred R. Dungan, Otis, Col., and F. E. Hartigan, Crete. The orations and essays were of a high order and were well rendered.
A Farm Hand Overcome by the Heat.
SPUTZBERG, Neb., June 20, [Special to THE BEE. ] Albert Burton, aged fifty-one, a farm hand working for George Suldo, near Sterling in this county, was overcome by the heat yesterday afternoon and died last night.
He was an Englishman and a stranger in a strange land, having no relations in this country. He was buried by the county today.
Blair's Population.
BLAIR, Neb., June 20, [Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] The census enumerators have completed the returns for Blair city, which show 2,060 inhabitants. This does not include Dexter City addition, which has just been admitted, and several citizens out of town, which will increase it about 150.
Nebraska, Cur, Nob., June 20. [Special telegram to The Bureaus.] Two children, while playing in a burn on Ninth Street this afternoon, set fire to the building, which was completely burned, together with one horse.
Small hey, firecracker, Beatrice, Neb., June 20. [Special Telegram to THE BUREAUS.] A barn on the premises of Junto Gunn in West Beatrice was burned today at noon with its contents. One horse was rescued after being badly injured. Cause of the fire was a small boy and a big firecracker. Loss,
Summary of the fire at Wymore.
Wymore, Neb., June 20. [Special telegram to THE BUREAUS.] This afternoon about 4 o'clock, the roof of the Eagle hotel building was discovered to be on fire by parties passing along the street. The alarm was given and in a short time a large crowd had assembled with buckets, patent fire extinguishers, ladders, etc., and made short work of the fire. The origin of the fire is a mystery, as the building has not been occupied for over a week, but it is supposed to have started from a spark from a tinner's furnace who was repairing the roof earlier in the day. A strong wind was blowing from the south and had the fire got under good headway, several blocks in the business portion of the city would probably have burned, as most of the buildings are frame.
Lincoln's Home Election.
Lincoln, Neb., June 20. [Special to THE BUREAUS.] Today three bond propositions were voted on by the citizens of Lincoln. They were first, $30,090 to secure the building of the Rock Island railroad; second, one to authorize the council to issue paving bonds to the amount of $100,000; third, another for sewer bonds to the amount of $20,000. A very light vote was polled. The election ended unanimously carried. The vote on the Rock Island bonds was: 1,700 for and 200 against.

Death of C. E. Moody.
Mr. C. E. Moody of this city died yesterday at Pasadena, Cal., where he has been for the past two months in a vain search for health. The deceased was the proprietor of the china store at Sixteenth and Davenport Streets, and was a successful businessman. He came to Omaha seven years ago and established the business which he conducted to the time of his death. For the past three years he had been a sufferer from Bright's disease of the kidneys, which caused his death. He leaves a wife, but no children.
A Fruit Stand Blown Up.
By the explosion of a gasoline stove at the corner of Sixteenth and Barnoy Streets, the fruit stand at that point was forced out of business. While the loss was not great, the fire consumed the man's entire stock in trade.
IN A GIRL'S STUDIO.
Typical Surroundings of a "Girl Bachelor" of today.
I see there are people who object to the phrase "girl bachelor." They ask us to be frank and say "old maid." But when the maid is a young one, not yet twenty-six, there is no expression which so well describes her free and independent existence, says a New York letter to the Pittsburgh Leader. A few days ago I had a glimpse of a charming girl's studio, decorated, I believe by the girl herself. It is a room of moderate size in a house which shelters a number of these detached women. Most of them work at one thing or another and enjoy good incomes. They form a delightful colony. This particular door is the abode of a particularly claver young woman. The floor is of bricks, painted yellow and spread with rugs in shades of yellow and brown. The walls have been washed in a cloudy brown, the effect of which is rather ancient and mellow and all together agreeable. Above this is a frieze of yellow, on which are strokes of quaint figures in brown. The ceiling is a creamy tint, splashed here and there with a ruddy light in old red or gold. There is a fireplace in one corner, built of yellow bricks, and the windows are curtained with soft woolen stuffs in yellow. The chairs are in antique shapes in yellow-brown oak, and a big divan is heaped with cushions which repeat the colors. The walls are hung with etchings and these are in oak frames. Over the doors there are shelves, and on these, and on the mantle, and in the window and in various odd corners are brown and yellow jugs, which I last saw filled with butterfly cups nestled among maiden-hair ferns. The girl was serving lunch and she spread it on a tawny yellow cloth and in yellowish Japanese china. I do not suppose I have given you an idea of the studio, but it is a pretty room and illustrates the progress of the girl bachelor. She is perhaps, as you have guessed it, red-headed and of exquisite fair complexion. She wears a tea gown of China silk of a warm cream tone, with front of brown. Do you understand now the significance of the color scheme? The room is designed to suit the skin of its owner and her curls.
They Took In the Lions.
Rev. Dr. Kerr, pastor of the Common Level church in Rockford, Ill., tells a Chicago Tribune reporter that when he was in London recently, he went over to Trafalgar Square. He saw the lions about the monument as Landseer had directed. "While looking at them a countryman of the Josh Whitcomb type joined him. The great doctor of the new mode of getting to heaven greeted his countryman, and the two took in the lions together.
"They ain't alike," said the Yankee.
Dr. Kerr explained that it was not intended they should be. "There is one," he said, "representing Peace, England at peace. Another looks outward. That represents the idea of Manifest Destiny. Another is an attitude of forlornness, representing War. The fourth has its young in its embrace. There is the idea of Protection."
The Yankee looked at the lions as the preacher explained why it was that all the lions were not made alike. Then the Yankee kicked one of the cast animals, and as he did so an expression of glee came over his face.
"Say; Doc, "he exclaimed, "darn if they ain't hollow inside."
The look of disgust which climbed upon the cheeks of several sons of Britain was one which no artist could reproduce, and Dr. Kerr, himself, turned his thoughts in another channel.
Dresden China.
The sale of Dresden china at the works in Meissen last year amounted to $175,000, the greatest sum ever realized in a single year. There is a Saxon tradition that the financial condition of the monarchy is a political barometer.
In 1720, the receipts were only $100,000; in 1807, they sank from $100,000 to $815,000, to $12,000,000 again in 1815. At the approach of the revolution of 1818-49 and the Austro-Prussian and the Franco-Prussian wars, the receipts fell off still more. The funeral of the late A.C. Knight will be held at the family residence, near Irvington, at 11 o'clock on Saturday morning. The remains will be interred in the cemetery at Irvington.
HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT
The Largest Graduating Class Since the Foundation of the Institution,
DIPLOMAS CONFERRED ON SIXTY-SIX
The Enactments, Orations, Recitations and musical exercises were performed With Appreciation by the Immense
Audience.
The Grand opera house was filled to the utmost last night by an audience which despite the temperature, listened with interest and attention to the fourth annual commencement exercises of the Omaha high school. The sixty-six members of the class of '00, the gentlemen in black, the ladies in snowy white, slowly took their places upon the stage, marching in time with the music of the orchestra. The powers, the class colors, old gold and rose, the fluttering fans, the bright and intelligent faces of the graduates, gave the scene an attractive and cheerful appearance. At the left four little flower girls, Winifred Gray, Ella Cotton, Grace Gapon, Blanche Hosowater and Kittie Polack, were seated only to be interrupted at the close of every piece to carry the innumerable flowers to each triumphant speaker.
The exercises commenced with an essay upon "The Music of the Future," read in a pleasing and graceful manner by Miss Minnie Burgland. She began by tracing the history of true music from its birth in Italy, whose language is melody. Melody, however, had existed from the Genesis, ever since man perceived that he could utter sounds in his efforts to reproduce nature's harmonies. Thus music, in the early ages, portrayed nature. Grecian drama gave it a new impetus, but there was nothing in Roman music beyond a coarse imitation. During the middle ages there was a longing for the supernatural which music alone could express. The human voice was used to display the bellows of sound, and meaningless words were set to music, making Italian opera more an exhibition of skill. It was against the omnipotence of the singer that the German composers, under the leadership of Beethoven, protested. Before this time musician and poet had acted separately. Now the musician must be a poet.
It remained for Wagner to carry on the master's work. He invented nothing. He collected and combined all the arts into one grand theme. In the Greek drama he found the chorus imparting intensity. Mozart taught him exquisite touch; Weber, the secret of pure melody; Beethoven supplied him with a powerful music capable of holding in suspense a vast throng of emotions; Schubert gave him freedom of song; Chopin, the magic elasticity of chords; Shakespeare, Goethe and Schiller suggested his language. With these he combined beauty of scenery. "Music is still the youngest of the arts, yet already adopted as the national art of Germany. Soon it must stand as the mightiest. For from the first, music is the only touch of nature, making the whole world kin which lends a golden hue to life's tide as it glides along. "
Mr. Arthur Montmorency followed with an oration upon the "Franchise," which he delivered with a clear and distinct voice.
"'We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal. ' These words, said he, 'are the guiding spirit of the grand document in which they occur. They were written under peculiar circumstances by men who had submitted to a series of persecutions. The change from political subjugation to absolute freedom was a great one. Military measures would have been natural. But they were not taken. Still there was one point in which a little more conservatism would have been in place. This was, in according, indiscriminately, the right to vote to all male citizens. Every man had a vote.
"In recent times the advisability and justice of this has been questioned. It is certainly not the best with a population such as ours now is. Men who have nothing but what they have on their backs borrow money and emigrate to the United States. Here they work at miserable wages and do not associate with English-speaking people. Yet these men, in two to five years, become voters and exercise the right of franchise.
"The result of this system is that one man who employs many can control an election. This condition of affairs should be remedied. It might be partially prevented by a restriction of immigration. There are, however, many reasons why this would not be wise. Some sort of suffrage must be put in force. Education is here not only free, but compulsory. So there can be no taint of injustice in an educational requirement. No person ought to exercise a privilege in opposition to the interests of the community. Some object that a restriction of the suffrage would deprive the lower classes of its educating influence. What is there in it? Are not the men whom the ballot educates these who would educate themselves? Will not the uneducated put forth every effort to qualify themselves for the franchise?
"No aspect of the question has received more attention than 'woman's rights.' The most logical objection to woman's exercise of the franchise is that her mental construction is different from that of man; that she is impulsive. Might not the impulse be the correct one? All objections to woman suffrage are easily disposed of. There are no good and valid reasons why some women, at least, should not vote. It would undoubtedly be dangerous to grant suffrage to all women indiscriminately. We must reform the one evil before the other. Our government is now the most liberal under which the sun shines, but if these reforms were accomplished, it would more than ever be a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. "
The "Novelette" of Schumann given as a piano solo by Miss Harriet E. Brown showed not only careful practice but also considerable musical talent and elicited a hearty applause and many flowers.
The next exercise consisted of the reading of a well-written essay entitled "The Use and Abuse of Ambition," by Miss Eugenia Getz.
Miss Getz called upon the muse for a definition of her theme. It re-echoed that "ambition is a glorious cheat, a spell that murders sleep and in its victim's ear whispers a deathless word. The hoary ages of the past stand to show that ambition is the most essential quality of the human mind. By its mighty hand, it lifts an otherwise indifferent mediocrity to the level of a Caesar or a Cicero. Truly, then, the destructive effect of ambition has not arisen from its use but solely from its abuse. It is the procurer of evil as well as the almoner of good. Yet her victims bow before the shrine of their devotion for the praises of the world today, tomorrow its execrations.
"In biblical times even the angels were prey to ambition's all-pervading influence. From the expulsion of man from Eden, the retrogression of human nature began, until he became little more than a beast of the forest. From this state, ambition alone was able to excite and arouse him. But with civilization, man learned to abuse the hand that led him. "
The speaker then considered the motives which inspired some illustrious men of history. Alexander was led by love of glory. Caesar was ambitious. Napoleon Bonaparte was a zealous devotee of this vice. How different was the motive which inspired Washington. No pure love of liberty could have induced man to brave these storms. Thus ambition has caused the downfall of many a man in the midst of booming prosperity and renown, and often been prone to sting the most devoted yet abused slave, yet over every lasting victory, every reformation, every invention and discovery is but the outcome of disciplined ambition.
Mr. Larimore Denton then recited with much spirit the fiery description of the chariot race in Ben Hur, "Is the modern heroine born or made, must she wait for the opportunity to make herself? Her self!" With this question, Miss Alice H. Howell commenced her essay with the modern heroine, "From the earliest times history is full of heroic women. But today's heroes surround them. In the story of their lives the modern heroine will find little to inspire and much to repel. It may be by genius or by mercy that these women are inscribed on the annals of fame, but in each case it is the manifestation of an heroic purpose. Perhaps nowhere has the courage to dare and to do, been more strongly illustrated than in the manner in which the modern heroine has worked her way up to an elite education. Even in the time of our most learned women, was excluded from the avenues of higher culture. In the millions, more or less, graduates of the class of 1882, there are undoubtedly a sufficient number of heroines to take the place of those of old. Among them may possibly be represented, just as in the list, "But what is to become of the steady-going everyday girls! May any, may all become heroines. If we cannot, then the trouble lies in ourselves. It has been customary to extol the pilgrim fathers. Has it ever occurred to us to give a passing thought to the pilgrim mothers and daughters! To the modern heroine will be a woman true to herself and to her God. She is one whose name we all know, whose gentle face, whose tender voice will win back the erring, see the weary. It is the glorious name mother. She may be called sister, or daughter, yet heroine is the same, she is the heroine of the household. This heroine will not be a recluse, but will partake of social relaxation. She will make her home a place of welcome to all. She will be familiar with the current of contemporary thought. Here, surely, is work to be done by the modern heroine and she may seek none other, none higher."
Mr. Fred S. Nave then appeared at the front of the stage and proceeded to discuss one of our "American problems." "In the history of the United States many problems have troubled American statesmen. Now, as before, statesmen are confronted by grave issues. That of foreignism is one well worthy of attention. In order to populate the vast unpeopled domain of this land, the government not only invited but even persuaded members of all nations to come and settle it. The promise of office and citizenship was added to other allurements. These promises made were religiously kept. In the earlier times the immigrants were honest, industrious people with good motives and high aims. But lately the character of the incoming horde has changed. Paupers, vagrants, criminals, and a great mass of nondescripts have thonged to our shores. Through its own generosity our nation has introduced not only elements of weakness but others menacing the stability of our free institutions. No government on earth except our own grants universal suffrage even to its own sons, much less to its alien population. To conciliate the foreign vote is the aim of all parties. So that element now determines which side of the political balance shall go down. To catch these various votes, each party puts a plank into its platform declaring its firm belief in "Home Rule for Ireland" or other measures. But nothing is done to conciliate the American vote. Many foreigners are an honor to the land of their adoption. But for the benefit of those, should the vast and uneducated majority become voters to the hurt of our country!
"But what can be done! Many ways have been suggested. Let longer residence be required before citizenship is conferred. American boys wait twenty-one years; why should not aliens do the same! Require education and good character qualifications. If these measures were adopted, our country would truly be a refuge for the oppressed. Then might we surely hope to perpetuate through a thousand generations the liberties of a great people, free but at the same time self-governed."
A musical interlude was greatly appreciated by the audience in the piano duct, "Postillion D'Amour," exquisitely rendered by Misses Elizabeth Liddell and Paulina Collett, and each of the fair pianists was required to bow in reply to the applause. Miss Edna Harnoy followed with a fine recitation of John Burns at Gettysburg as quaintly told in one of Bret Harte's poems. Miss Louise F. Holtorf gave two vocal selections, "Spring and Autumn," by Puccini, and a "Voneljan," Boat Song," by Blumenthal, giving evidence of a well-trained, sweet, and pleasing voice. The audience was not satisfied until an extra bow had been given in recognition of its enthusiasm.
The closing literary exercise of the evening was given by Mr. Harry L. Akin. In a masterly manner, he presented an oration upon the "Pardoning Power," prepared and delivered with care. "It has been taken for granted," he said, "that no valid objection could be made to the theory of the pardoning power. The governors of most states have the right to pardon criminals, for which the exercise of their rights they are not obliged to give the reasons for invoking them. According to the American doctrine, no act for which reasons cannot be given ought to stand. After throwing difficulties about conviction, after giving a presumption of innocence, we give the convicted party the opportunity to persuade the executive by any means in his power to forgive him. The first proceedings have been public. But no sooner is sentence been pronounced than a different scene begins. The council for the defense exerts all power to obtain a pardon. Petitions are circulated and signed for the same purpose. Then the siege begins. Every attempt is made to influence the governor's sentiments. The final judge remembers that no justification of a pardon is required and it is granted.
"The chief end of punishment is the public welfare. Its most salutary ingredient is its certainty. We cannot abolish the pardoning power altogether; for innocent men may be convicted. But even in these cases the pardoning power is often misused. To provide for instances where an innocent man may be condemned, or a slight offense be visited with too severe a penalty, let us have a court of review. Then whether the prisoner be richer or poorer, if he is able to produce evidence of wrongful conviction, let him be vindicated. A pardon is usually regarded as an act of clemency, an indulgence truly an innocent man wants no such pardon. What he demands is justice, not indulgence."
As evidence of the four years of conscientious study, Mr. C. F. Goodman, after making a short address, presented a diploma to each of the graduates on behalf of the board of education. The class is the largest that has ever been graduated in Omaha and contains a much larger proportion of boys than ever before. The careful supervision and work of the teachers were clearly shown in the commencement exercises, especially in the results of the elocutionary training under Miss DeCla Johnson.

Wanted for Robbing Furniture.
If they can be found, James Towler and his wife, Anna, will be wrested today. It is supposed that they are at 24th and Izard streets. They are wanted for stealing furniture belonging to Mrs. Thomas, who went to California some years ago.
Before leaving for that far away state, Mrs. Thomas stored her household goods in a warehouse at 24th and Nicholas streets. A few days ago she returned, and in searching for her property the warehouseman informed her that it had been taken away many months ago. She then set out on a tour of investigation and located the stuff in the Palo Alto residence.
A search warrant was issued and the property was carted to the central station. The stolen goods are valued at $100.
St. Wenceslaus Commencement.
The commencement exercises of St. Wenceslaus parochial school took place at Simmon's hall last evening. The large hall was completely filled with the parents and friends of the pupils of the schools. The exercises consisted of recitations by the older pupils, choruses singing by the different classes, and the opportunity, "Little Red Riding Hood." The pupils were all well trained in their respective parts and the entire entertainment proved a success without a hitch. The entertainment concluded with recitations and singing by all the pupils.
TRYING TO PROVE HIM CRAZY,
Trial of Pat Crowe for Attempted Murder in Chicago Almost Over,
RATHER A POOR SHOWING MADE,
His Attorneys Have but a Slender Thread of Evidence to Work On His Behalf.
CHICAGO, June 20. [Special Telegram to The Bee.] The case of Patrick Crowe, charged with an assault with an intent to kill Officer Isaac Milton Hayville, was concluded shortly after noon today, as far as the evidence was concerned, and Assistant State Attorney Wesley began his opening address at 3 o'clock. Half a dozen witnesses were called by the defense during the morning to patch up the claim of Crowe's insanity, but their evidence was so slight that the state did not think it necessary to offer anything in rebuttal. The defendant himself was not put on the stand, but sat quietly behind his counsel during the session. But it was hard to look like a lunatic, and not succeeding very well. W. L. Gilhooly, conductor on the street railway in Omaha for which Crowe worked last summer, said that after the latter was hurt in an accident in September he acted crazy. He would go in his car and ask lady passengers if he could make love to them.
Patrick Crowe, sr., father of the defendant, said his son was twenty-one years old and was never in a shooting scrape and never stole anything before. He left home this spring one night because his wife would not leave the house with him. He jumped out of the window and fired two shots into the house.
Mary Vaughn, the defendant's sister, thought her brother was crazy and also another brother, Anthony, who is working now, however, for Armour & Co.
Orlin Quackenbush, a carpenter who had worked for Crowe, thought the latter was crazy because he had talked and acted strangely in paying him.
Several witnesses testified to Crowe's good reason before he came to Chicago in February and the case was closed.
On this slender thread of evidence, Mr. Gannon of Omaha and Mr. W. A. Foster will endeavor to convince the jury that Crowe should not be held responsible for his desperate acts.
The case will be given to the jury in Judge Grinnell's court some time tomorrow and it is not believed that it will take them long to dispose of the plea of the defense that he was insane when he shot and tried to kill Isaac M. Hayville. The defense concluded their case today and Assistant State's Attorney Neely did not think it necessary to offer anything in rebuttal. He began his opening argument at 3 o'clock and M. V. Gannon of Omaha followed for the defendant.
Half a dozen witnesses were heard on Crowe's behalf, and all advanced more or less plausible reasons for believing that he was insane.
Charles Hasbrook, an Omaha druggist, considered him crazy, because the prisoner told him a few days before he came to Chicago that he was going to buy out Armour's packing house.
In his opening speech, Mr. Neely contended that Crowe was not crazy, but a wicked, desperate, cool-headed young man who had laid his evil plans carefully in advance of their execution. The prisoner's remarks after his arrest, that "they can't hang me if Brisson dies," proved that.
Mr. Cannon went over the evidence from the opposite point of view, making a plausible argument on the theory of Crowe's insanity. He insisted that it had been proven beyond any reasonable doubt.
SHE THREW HIM OVER.
A Professional Hotel Worker's Girl Gets Him Into Serious Trouble.
Sam H. Williams, a professional hotel worker from Kansas City, is in the Omaha jail, and it all comes about on account of his best girl, Emma Blackmail, of the same place, having thrown him over.
Williams has a good game, and one that, when he is not in jail, ought to bring him in a good revenue.
Monday morning, clean-shaven and dressed in a suit of stylish clothes, he struck the Paxton hotel and ordered the best room in the house, proposing that he was traveling for Bullmire, Moores, Emery & Co., wholesale dry goods dealers of Kansas City, and was working up a great Omaha trade. During the afternoon, he informed Mr. Sherman, the day clerk, that he was a little pressed for money, and it would be a great accommodation if he would cash a $100 check on the home house. Mr. Sherman was suspicious, so Williams telegraphed, addressing the message to Emma West Fourth street, which was the residence number of the Blackmail woman. She, however, failed to do her duty by not telegraphing back that the check was O.K.
The telegram was handed over to Chief Spears, and after interviewing the firm, he telegraphed Chief Seavey to arrest Williams, as he was wanted for hotel beating.
The fact that the woman has gone back on Williams is made clear by the correspondence which she has had with the young man, and which is now in the hands of the police. In one of the latter, she is instructed to receive all telegrams and letters sent to Bullmire, Moore, Emery & Co., and in answering them state that Williams' drafts will always be honored.
Matthews in a Critical Condition.
John Matthews, the farmer from La Monte, who was slugged by Fred Hunsucker, a South Fourteenth street saloon keeper, is still at the hospital ward at the police station and is in a critical condition, having completely lost the power of speech. The case against the saloon man comes on for trial this afternoon.
An Unfortunate Woman.
A young woman giving her name of Emma Obor was picked up in Jefferson square last night and taken to the hospital ward at the Contral station. She had been a patient at the county hospital for several weeks and yesterday was discharged. She came to the city expecting to go to work in the laundry at the Geese hotel, but while walking through the square last evening without any warning her limbs became numb and helpless and she sank to the ground, where she remained until found by a policeman.

SUMMONING THE HEROES TO THE CITY
A New York Society Girl Followed Her Betrotthed in a Call.
Miss Alice Hastings is one of the most pronounced belles of the season, says a New York dispatch to the San Francisco Examiner. She is nineteen years old, a decided blonde, with pearly skin and golden tresses, and she resides on Fifth avenue near the reservoir.
John, as he is more familiarly known, "Jack" Watson, is twenty-three years of age, a son of a retired stockbroker, and when in town makes the Gilsey house his headquarters.
The young man is widely known about town by reason of his handsome appearance, his swagger, his English clothes, and his good-fellowship.
Until recently, Louis Hastings and Jack Watson were the best of friends, and following the natural course of events, young Hastings invited Watson to call at his home.
This was early in March and a wonderful friendship at once sprung up between Alice Hastings and Jack Watson. Since then, the young couple have been seen almost continually together, and it was an open secret that they were to be married in the fall.
Of late, however, young Watson is alleged to have grossly neglected his fair flute, lavishing instead his attentions, together with pretty bouquets, costly rings, and toothsome bonbons, upon one of the fair chorus girls in an uptown theater where comic opera reigns supreme.
Recently, Miss Hastings became suspicious that her handsome cavalier was playing her false, and therefore, in conjunction with her brother Louis, she laid in wait in a coupe one night about two weeks ago opposite the stage door of the theater.
After the performance, the Murray Hill belle evinced the most poignant grief when she beheld her affianced husband assist her pretty rival into a hansom cab.
Watson was just about to follow when young Hastings sprang from the coupe, and running across the street, smote his sister's betrothed on the face with a glove, as he exclaimed: "Coward, you have broken Alice's heart. You may consider your engagement at an end. Henceforth you need not resort to subterfuge to drive around town with your painted beauty."
The men glared at each other fiercely for a moment, and Jack Watson raised his hand to strike his chum, but the spectators of this strange scene interfered and bundled young Hastings back into his coupe.
Two days later, Watson left suddenly for Europe. Before sailing, he sent Miss Hastings a threatening note and followed this up with a summons in a suit for $50,000 damages for breach of promise.
Miss Hastings has placed the matter in the hands of her lawyer, Silas M. Stillwell, who says he will have young Watson arrested on his return to this city for having sent his client a vile and threatening letter through the mails.
Stanley's Dominion.
The Congo Free State, over which Stanley is to assume the governorship, is a territory estimated to contain 1,050,000 square miles, with a population of 27,000,000, says the Toronto World.
Through it runs the magnificent River Congo, which is navigable, 800 miles from the sea. There come the cataracts, around which a railway is being constructed to Leopoldville, the capital, from which to Stanley Falls, 800 miles distant, there is good navigation.
It is constituted under the terms of the Berlin conference, and if Stanley should eventually proclaim himself emperor, it is hard to see what there is to prevent him.

KiitliUBlnsm for the * Projected Pan-
Aiiiurlcan Kallroiul.
Sig. Rlcimlo do la Cossa an ivcd in New
York from Sun Salvador the other day , llllcd
with enthusiasm for the Pan-American rail
road. Signer do la Cossa is a civil engineer
of very high standing in this country and in
Cential America , sajs the Now York Star.
He is high up In the service of the new rail
road which pt eposes to join North und South
America by a steel band of commetce. In con
versation with several Americans at the Met
ropolitan hotel , Signor do la Cossu said in his
quaint and music.il English :
"You see , heretofore wo have been obliged
to go not only to Mexico , but to each individ
ual state in Central America to ask for con
cessions nnd privileges , and the patty jealous
ies and individual avarice of the separate
states kept us from accomplishing nnvthing.
As it is , ovcrv thing is changed. The old
dream of a united Ccnttal Amcricai is real
ised and the old trouble is eradicated. The
seinrato states have agreed to form a
solidatity , nnd , beginning with next
September , so far as the ottUido
world is concerned , Central America will } be
as much ono country as tire the United
States. The several states have agreed to
join forces for ten jcars , and on a most sensi
ble basis. The names of the ptcsidentb of
the live republics will bo put together , and
ono will bo chosen by lot , who will be ptesi-
ilcnt of the Central American icpublic. Ho
will hold ofllco for ono year , when his suc
cessor will bo selected by lot from the re
maining lour ptesidents. Thus it will bo at
least live years after a man's selection to the
olllco bofoio there is a possibility of his hold
ing the olllco again. The president will have
a cabinet of about twenty , appointed by the
different states , so many apiece , forming a
combination of general congress nnd execu
tive cabinet , of which the president will bo
the executive head. The capital city will bo
the capital of the country which is the liomo
of the president. For instance , if the ptcsi-
dent of Salvador is made ptcsident of Cen
tral Ameiica , the capital will bo at San
Salvador for a year , and the next year it will
change.
"As it is now , " continued the Central
American , "there will bo but ono government
to talk with , and that government will bo
quite ready tint only to discuss the matter ,
but to do everything possible to advance the
scheme. They recognize all over Central
America , in Mexico and in Colombia , that no
greater thing can be accomplished in the in-
tereht of all concerned than to build this
load , and they tuo but too anxious to have it
completed. A gieat deal has iilteady been
done. The line from the Atlantic to the into-
lior of Costa Hic.i is almost llnibhcd , and
those of Nicaragua and Guatemtla will boon
put the Pacillc coast in quick communication
with the interior and the Gulf Salvador is
almost rcadv to open the line to the capital ,
so that it will bo a voty short time bofoio wo
have perfect facilities for transpoitation till
over Cential America , from near the Mexican
co ist to the frontiers of Guatemala.
"Of course there are many difllcultlcs in
the way in the building of this road , " suid
Signer do la Cossa in conclusion , "but was
ever a great undertaking carried to a suc
cessful close witho.it difllcultics ) Thank
heaven , wo have overcome ours and can sco
our way clear to the triumphal goal at which
\vo luivo been aiming for years.11

Snt on Her Hcst Fellow.
Vcrv early one morning recently , says
the Now York Sup , a largo party of
young people who had evidently heon tea
a dance , boarded a bridge train for
Brooklyn. Nearly all the other passen
gers were newspaper men on tholr way
liomo. When the train was approach
ing the Brooklyn terminus ono of tlio
ladles , uttering a little scream , jumped
up from her teat , und , with a look of concern -
corn on her fuco , began searching fat
her pockotwhich she finally found , and ,
thrusting in her hnnd , drew forth a cab
inet-size photograph , slightly bent but
othorwibo uninjured. With a proud
smile she surveyed it for a moment ,
then , loosening her cloak , she carefully
tucked the portrait away and resumed
her beat. The other passengers had
been silent observers of the incident ,
and when the train stopped and the
lady and the rest of tlio pasbongors were
slowly leaving the car iv cruel man just
behind her exclaimed in a stage whis
per : "That is her bust follow and slio
sat on him. "

The Future of tlio Coal
The latest authentic coal statistics
show that England is producing about -10
per cent of the output of tlio world , but
some Knglish authorities are of the opin
ion that England's coal supremacy will
soon depart , says tlio Pittsburg Com-
morciiil Gazotto. Tlio London Colliery
Guardian thinks that this country wHl
supply most of the coal of the world In
the near future. Capital for the dovol-
opmcnt and demand are all that are
needed for us to stop to the front as the
chief coal producers , as wo liuvo more
than half a million miles of coal landy ,
almost all with their supply of coal not
materially diminished , while England
has only 12,000 square miles , a great
deal ofyhlch has had the supply ox-
hnusted. There is n good tlmo coming
for the coal 111011 of this country.

Were Masters of the Situation,
ENORMOUS BUYING OF CORN BY HUTCH,
Provision Market Kentuckians
XI IC Hnn o In the Oat I'll Quito
Active at Times Cat
tle and
CitirAfio, .TunoS? . [Special Telegram to THE
1st.-The trade in wheat for the day was
enormous. There were big traders on both sides
and the tide turned in favor of higher prices.
Then there are but four more trading days to July
1 and it is a bad time to be short in July wheat.
Several persons found this out to their dismay,
Wheat they proceeded to protect themselves by buying
in their wheat they found cash wheat
houses were masters of the situation and the
result was a rebound in prices of nearly $50 from
the opening figures. The market opened 10
off on dispatches outlining the values of the
U.S. Department of Agriculture, in which it is claimed that
winter wheat conditions justify the government figures and total crop of 42. (OCEANIC)
bushels. The spring wheat outlook was called
better than last year. However, the business news for today.
The first prices were:
July May, August 81½, September 81½c, December 75½c,
and then were the bottom prices for
today. The last bound in price was on the
New York clearances, reaching 5,000 bushels,
mostly for British ports, New York buying in
this market on cable advices of unfavorable
weather abroad. There was some crop news
also, but it was not needed to start the big
advance. During the first hour, while July was
peppered up to 8½c and December up to 85½c,
Hitchinson was selling a little and talking
hearsay, but it did not stop the advance. In
the early trading lotan > v do, Olirord & Co,
Haldwin A. Putnam and Mitchell were
buying. Before noon the aspect
changed. June became a big buyer.
Mr. Hitchinson became a big buyer. Mitchell,
having realized on a lot of long wheat,
again bought heavily. Broctean bought liberally.
Everyone who was short of July bought
as fast as they could. Cables, big clearances
and weather in England had some effect. The
attitude of the cash wheat houses, faced the
cash wheat demand started, caused a sensation.
Whoever was short of July covered
just like anybody else before it got too late.
The advance up to noon was not rapid, but
very broad and sustaining. On the second bound
the prices went from 10 to 10 over the
11 o'clock figures. The top prices about mid
day were: July, 83½c; August, 81½c;
September, 81½c; December 85½c, or a
recovery from the opening prices.
There was a slight railing off
from these figures on heavy selling
and before 1 o'clock the tide became falling
(cot. During the last half hour wheat was
unsteady and did not hold up at best prices.
July was off to 84½c, up somewhat, closed at
85½c, or lost slightly over last night; August
closed at 87½c, uptempering 87½c. December
squeezed to 85½c mid June or cash was about
85½c.
The corn market was in the same course
with wheat today. It opened at the bottom
in prices at a decline over night, made a very
fair advance and closed without much speech
activity following under the best prices,
according to weather was construed by some as
against the crop and by others favorable. It
certainly was bearish, if it had any
bearing, The manpower of the market on the advance was the enormous
buying by Hutchins. He was followed by
the Speculating fraternity, who later took the
Hutchinson their purchases. Before the close it
was reported that twenty-six boatloads had
been taken for export at New York, shipments
were 40,000 bushels Charles' tally,
800,000 bushels. July sold at 38½c;
June closed at 39½c; August sold at 42½c,
closing at 42½c; September, 42½c, closing at 43½c.
The closing prices in oats were but a slight
fraction over the closing yesterday. The range
for today was fairly good and the pit was
active at times. In this, as other cereals
on big buying, caused higher prices. July was
bought at 34½c early and 32½c to the close;
August, 35½c at the close;
September, bought the close;
The weather was favorable for the provision trade so far as the outsider could see.
Foreign and local advices were slight as
would be called bearish. Prices were lower at
the yard. Stocks are growing larger. Shipments
are not up to expectations. However,
There was some show of strength in
hogs, lids, and other sensitive markets
to 10c under the close of yesterday for July
and September with little interest in August.
Corn held at 30½c to 31½c; July, 25½c to
September, and 22½c moved up for both
months; the only explanation was some covering by
shorts in sympathy with the other markets.
STOCK.
June 28. [Special Telegram to THE
BEE] STOCK: Business was rather slow at
the opening, but later on there was more life
and about everything useful was sold, yet
Some salesmen fancied there was a better
show to carry their stock over for tomorrow's
market and acted accordingly. As to prices
there was little or no change; here and there
common natives may have sold a shade lower,
but the best experts and disciples of beef stock
Fold all day about the same as yesterday.
Common Texans were again quoted 10c lower,
but good stock, which is
falling in short supply. Mild at the Corner
(Chicago). Native butchers' stock continues to
sell at lower prices on account of the drop in
Texans and the large numbers of the same.
Steers and feeders were quiet and steady;
choice to extra beefs. 1,000 to 1,500 lbs.
1,200 to 1,600 lbs. 1,100 to 1,200 lbs.,
1,000 to 1,200 lbs., 850 to 1,000 lbs.,
sheep and feeders, 1,300 to 1,400 lbs.;
grain and mixed, $6.30 to $7.50;
cows and bulls,
SUSO to $3.00; Texas cattle,
IH0 lower; hogs, 11½ to 13½c; feeders,
$1.70 to $1.80; corn, $0.30 to $0.32;
November.
This is not all; many of the professional operators are out of the market. Home at absent from the city and still others, distinguished with the seesaw and hesitation, have withdrawn from the street until the coming holidays are over and infatuences assume a more deliberate tempo. So far as the business of this morning went, it was summed up in an improvement in the Sugar trust, a loss of 1 per cent or more in Chicago tins, Richmond in Wildcards, New York in Louisville, St. Louis, Atchison, and most of the Grangers and Heading. At the opening, there was a marked sensation from the high prices reached last evening and the last prices were generally from 5 to 10 per cent lower, Louisville A. M. being exceptional with a loss of 1.5 per cent, while Pacific Mail and Sugar were higher. There were some disadvantages in the first few minutes' trading and heading touched 47, but they again yielded and retired somewhat below the opening levels. Sugar was the only feature and after opening at $10, it quickly to $9.80 but lotthod practically later in the hour. For feeling prevailed in the general list. There was no movement of note and explanation was the only feature of the afternoon, although Coal; Atchison, Louisville, Nashville, and Mobile showed considerable animation. Before noon, St. Paul recovered to 7 1/2 with all other western stocks at the lowest levels. Chicago recovered from 48 1/2, a low point early to 54 and again lost. The market was very quiet. The following were the closing variations:

The Exchange Station.
Bankers report the money market unchanged. Rates are firm at 8 percent for prime paper. General trade is quiet. Prices are, in most cases, very firm for all staples, except sugar, which is dull and weak. Much interest centers in California canned goods and futures are strong and advancing under advice that dried fruit is selling for more than canners can afford. Prices advanced 5 cents per dozen yesterday. The eastern peach crop is now believed to be almost a total failure and the eastern fruit crop generally will be much smaller than last year. In foreign fruits, lemons are excellent and advancing and are quotable at $7 to $3 for choice. The produce markets show no material changes, either in cereals or golden stuff. Supplies of the latter are liberal and the warm weather compels dealers to force off their stocks quietly.

SANGUINE CENTRAL AMERICANS.
Engineering for the Proposed Pan-American Railroad.
Sig. Rielingo do la Cossa visited in New York from Salvador the other day, filled with enthusiasm for the Pan-American railroad. Signer do la Cossa is a civil engineer of very high standing in this country and in Central America, says the New York Star. He is high up in the service of the new railroad which proposes to join North and South America by a steel band of commerce. In conversation with several Americans at the Metropolitan hotel, Signor do la Cossa said in his quaint and musical English:
"You see, heretofore we have been obliged to go not only to Mexico, but to each individual state in Central America to ask for concessions and privileges, and the party jealousies and individual avarice of the separate states kept us from accomplishing anything. As it is, everything is changed. The old dream of a united Central America is realized and the old trouble is eradicated. The six states have agreed to form a solidarity, and, beginning with next September, so far as the outside world is concerned, Central America will be as much one country as the United States. The several states have agreed to join forces for ten years, and on a most sensible basis. The names of the presidents of the six republics will be put together, and one will be chosen by lot, who will be president of the Central American republic. He will hold office for one year, when his successor will be selected by lot from the remaining four presidents. Thus it will be at least five years after a man's selection to the office before there is a possibility of his holding the office again. The president will have a cabinet of about twenty, appointed by the different states, forming a combination of general congress and executive cabinet, of which the president will be the executive head. The capital city will be the capital of the country which is the home of the president. For instance, if the president of Salvador is made president of Central America, the capital will be at San Salvador for a year, and the next year it will change.
"As it is now," continued the Central American, "there will be but one government to talk with, and that government will be quite ready not only to discuss the matter, but to do everything possible to advance the scheme. They recognize all over Central America, in Mexico and in Colombia, that no greater thing can be accomplished in the interest of all concerned than to build this road, and they are but too anxious to have it completed. A great deal has already been done. The line from the Atlantic to the interior of Costa Rica is almost finished, and those of Nicaragua and Guatemala will soon put the Pacific coast in quick communication with the interior and the Gulf. Salvador is almost ready to open the line to the capital, so that it will be a very short time before we have perfect facilities for transportation through Central America, from near the Mexican coast to the frontiers of Guatemala.
"Of course, there are many difficulties in the way in the building of this road," said Signor do la Cossa in conclusion, "but was ever a great undertaking carried to a successful close without difficulties? Thank heaven, we have overcome ours and can see our way clear to the triumphal goal at which we have been aiming for years."

THK HKPUnMCANS OF
The ropubllcaiifl of Iowa have held
their state convention nnd enunciated
the principles they pronoso to advocate
during the Impending campaign. This
Is an oil year in Iowa politics , hence the
candidates become secondary to the plat
form.
The interest In the campaign will al
most entirely center In the congressional
races and the platform had to bo
trimmed on vital Issues now pending before -
fore congress in accord with the views of
Iowa congressmen.
The endorsement of President Harrison
risen wns the compliment paid by the
convention for Iowa's contingent in the
various blue books.
The tariff plank In somewhat ambigu
ous and was doubtless drawn to mystify
rather than enlighten. The rank and
file of tlio republicans of Iowa are
farmers and they certainly do not want a
revision of the tariff that will make
duties higher and will make farm Itn-
ple.iicnts , tools , building materials and
fabrics for homo use dearer.
On the question of silver nnd currency
the platform endorses the conversion of
American silver bullion Into silver cer
tificates , and incidentally favors unlim
ited coinage of both gold and silver In
the near future. On the silver question
there Is us much delusion among Iowa
farmers as there Is among farmers west
and south generally. It has boon ham
mered Into them that some way their
store of money will bo largely Increased
if the bonanza kings of Colorado , Cali
fornia and Nevada are given the free use
of Undo Sam's mints to exchange eighty
cents worth of silver motul for ono hun
dred cents in legal tenders or gold.
They do not comprehend that the only
effect of unlimited coinage would bo to
make the bullionaircs nnd mining stock
jobbers richer by millions at the expense -
ponso of the whole country.
The plank pledging the party to pro
mote the industrial and farming inter
ests of the state Is awfully if not art
fully vague and indefinite. Whoever
originated that plank would do well to
play cuttlefish. Ho can shod more ink
to say nothing than any man on this
side of the Missouri.
The railroad regulation and anti-trust
planks are the best features of the plat
form. They are specific and to the
point.
The pouthorn outrage plank lacks defi
nite shape and should have been clearer
and less inverted.
On the question of pensions the con
vention goes as far as it can in favor of
taking care of the old soldier by promis
ing him a service poiibion at an early
date.
Last but not least comes the plank on
prohibition , which sounds very much
like the stereotyped editorial that ap
peared regularly every few days in an
Omaha daily some years ago. "And wo
desire it distinctly to bo understood that
wo do not wish to bo understood , " otc.
It begins with declaring "against a com
promise with the saloon and pledges
eternal hostility to its existence , spread
and power. " It winds up with appeal
ing to congress "to permit the states to
regulate , confine or prohibit the pub
lic bar , " which means that congress
shall not interfere with the saloon
wherever it may bu regulated under li
cense.
In some respects this is a marked do-
p.irturo. Last year's platform ondor&ed
prohibition outright and declared it to
bo the settled policy of the state. But
last year's election was decidedly adverse
to that policy and left the party in a &ad
plight.
Manifestly the prohibition plank has
been adopted to Imi'monizo all elements
of the party. If it accomplishes that re
sult the convention has done good work.
STIIUCK TJIU KKY-SOTK.
City Attorney Poppleton struck the
koy-note of the assessment problem when
ho called attention to the favoritism
shown by assessors to corporations , whose
valuable franchises are entirely ignored
in computing the valuation of their prop
erty.The
The constitution of this state provides
that taxes bhull bo levied by valuation ,
so that every person and corporation
bhall pay a tax in proportion to
the valuation of his , her or its
property ana franchises. If this
provision of the constitution relative to
the franchises of corporations wore enforced -
forced , Omaha and Douglas county could
add at least ilvo millions to their assess
ment rolls.
Tlio corporations that have boon voted
franchibcs by thib city to supply'it with
gas , water , fateam heat , electric lights ,
telephones nud street railway facilities
are bonded and stocked for moro than
twenty millions , and they should pay
taxes upon about one-fourth of the value
which their creditors and managers
have placed upon them. All of these
corporations together are assessed at loss
than a quarter of a million. But these
corporations may say that the millions
of bonds they have issued represent a
mortgage debt and therefore they
should not bo taxed upon bonds owned
by eastern or foreign money syndicates.
How is it with private individuals and
other corporations that have given mort
gages for buildings and other improve
ments ? Lot any man borrow ono hun
dred thousand dollars of foreign capital
and Invest that loan in a business blo k
or factory and just ns soon as
the building is completed the im
provement , which may bo made up
chiefly of money borrowed on mortgage ,
will bo returned by the assessor at one-
fourth or one-fifth of the appraised
value of the building and ground.
If a poor man borrows five hundred
dollars and builds a little homo ho is as
sessed upon his house and lot regardless
of the mortgage.
Is It fair or equitable to practically ex
empt from' taxation corporations
which have boon voted franchises worth
millions and force the burden of tax
ation upon the poor people who have
mortgaged their homes and enterprising
citizens who have assumed heavy debts
In the construction of business blocks ,
hotels , factories and mills. The fran-
chlsod corporations can certainly afford
to bear their proper share of taxation.
They nearly all have contracts with the
city and can well afford to pay back n
small part of the taxes which the city
has levied for their benefit.
Wo venture to say that there Is not
another city on thu continual whore
such rank discrimination Is practiced
ngnlnat the owners of Improved real
estate nnd In favor of subsidized cor
porations , mortgage holders and capi
talists who nmns < j fortunes by loaning
money , It has become a very grave
question whether a man in Omaha can
alTord to Invest his money In buildings
oven If ho Is content with five per cent.
Interest on his Investment. Every
year the burden of luxation Is growing
heavier and moro property Is being
taken out of the local tax" list for the benefit -
ofit of railroads and churches and benev
olent Institutions that rent their prom
ises for revenue.
If the board of county commissioners
and city council really doslro to make nn
Impartial assessment of taxable property
lot them rnlso the appraisement of fran-
chiscd corporations and overhaul the
enormous list of exempted property
which is not part of railroad right-of-way
nor actually occupied by churches
or schools. In that Hold they
will find ample scope'for increasing the
revenue and at the same tlmo keeping ,
down the levy which Is almost prohibi
tory and next to the prohibition agita
tion Is chiefly responsible for the de
pression that prevails in our real estate
market.
JUXK RISE or run Missounr ,
It will startle the residents of this sec
tion to learn from the front row of Bos
ton cult that "thoro is nowhere else on
this continent , probably on no other con
tinent , any phenomena quito like these
presented In the month of Juno at any
point on the lower Missouri , between
Omaha and Jefferson City. "
A writer on the Boston Advertiser ,
with an abnormal bump of Imagination ,
professes an intimate acquaintance with
the wild raging tears of the Big Muddy
and pathetically informs the reader that
while the telegraphic descriptions nro
thrilling , "thoy convoy but a faint im
pression compared with the reality
Known to eye witnesses.
Although at the present moment the
Missouri rolls by Omaha in a peaceful ,
noiseless sort of way , "to the Bostoniau
imagination it is absolutely furious. "
Shutting out the view of the woful
watery wastes , ho indulges In this de
lightful chupk of descriptive rot by way
of comparison :
"Wo in Now England are accustomed to
what wo consider sudden chunircs In climate ,
but our tcmper.ituio is eiitublo indeed juilfft-d
by a HocUy mountain standard. Thcro in a
few hours the mercury will rise or fall 00 do-
crocs. Heat comes oven more suddenly than
cold. Ono day the snow will lie in the gulches
half way up the trunks of the tallest trees ;
und the no\t day it will bo molting so fast ,
under a torrid sun , that little is to bo sccu
save ono v.ist down swooping sea of water ,
little to be heard save the awful roar of the
foaming torrents. "
Then , witli a mighty sweep of his pen
cil , the modern Athenian hurls in a few
hours this resistless flood over the thou
sands of intervening miles between Port
Bcnton and Omaha. As a demolisher of
space lie ib a daisy. The trilling fact
that it requires a month or more to
cover the distance is not worth mention
ing. To bib ripe imagination the dreamy
torrent slides down with the .speed of
thought , reserving its power to spread
disaster and death "between Omaha ana
JeiTorson City. " Then it is that the
writer is loat in ocstaoies as he contem
plates the furies turned loo.se. Hoar
him :
"As the maddened waters rush down be
tween the btates of Iowa und rfcbi-.iska ,
Missouri and Kansas , they tc.ir nway the
deep rjch soil of cither bank and with it all
that is on it. Houses , cattle , fencing nia-
tcii.il , the furniture of homes , and , alas !
sometimes human beings , como down the
valley , swept along by the irresistible flood. "
All this is mighty intoroitin' reudin' ,
but it is not true. There have been
Juno Hoods on the Missouri , and vast
quantities of itb ouibunkmunt have been
transferred from one side to the other
by the constant change of the channel.
But the extravagant and picturesque
features of the Missouri at high water
mark are intended moro for the ro
mancer and painter than for the reliable
historian.
AS TO VA
A local paper quotes Mr. Birkhauser
as follows :
"I am fooling pretty good , " said Mr. Birk-
hausor in answer to a question. "It is not
the onleo so much as the victory gained. It
will teach seine ono a lesson , and it also says
in plain words that Mayor Gushing cannot bo
run by a little suii'iiMonal vagabond. "
According 'o Wobstur a vagabond is
"ono who wai.do..s from place to place ,
having no certain dwelling ; a vagrant. "
Tlio person whom Birkhausor stigma
tizes as "a little sensational vagabond"
has lived in Omaha nearly twenty-seven
years ; ho 1ms never boon known to stroll
from Omaha for moro than thirty
days at any ono time. Ho has
owned property and paid taxes
in this city for twenty-six years
and the money ho has paid in taxes on
his property in Omulm during his residence -
donco here would buy all the property
Birkhausnr owns in Omaha and leave
several thousand dollars of margin
besides.
The" title of vagabond as defined by
Webster would almost apply to Birk
hausor who has been strolling from
place to place over since ho came to this
state , and only located in Omaha
a few years ago because ho
was completely played out politic
ally and otherwise in Richardson
county whore ho had strolled from town
to town nnd hud trumped through every
political camp.
Neither Gushing nor Birkhauser has
any claim upon Omaha on the score of
residence or contribution to the city's
growth. Both of them are now foraging
on the taxpayers and property owners of
this city _ and the less they say about
vagabond's the better It will bo for them.
It was not the ollico Birkhausor was
Booking , of course. IIo who has boon an
olllco-seokor till his life only wanted n
little vindication and victory. If ho
doesn't want the ollico for which ho Is
not competent and never will bo , und If
ho Is butlsfiod with his glorious victory ,
will ho give us a proof of his sincerity
by declining or resigning the ofllco
which ho doesn't want and cannot fill
excepting the signing of Ills salary
voucher for two hundred dollars a
month ?
IN mrniuxa from the chairmanship
of the board of public works , Major
Balcombe completes an enviable record
of faithful devotion to thu interests of
the taxpayer . While Titr BKK has
criticised many of the actof ) the board
during thUaflt thrco years , yet on the
whole tho" chairman and his colleagues
have BO Our'tifnlly guarded the vast In
terests inlrlislcd to them that no taint of
scandal ilfniij the record. To Major
Balcombo is largely duo the credit of
having brought order out of chaos In the
business ot .the ollico. When ho took
chnrgo of thoiofllco the so-called records
wore a jumble of figures , without order
or Intelligentarrangement. It was im
possible to extract from the confused
mass nn accurate statement of the busi
ness of the board. All this was promptly
changed and the vast business of the
board reduced to a system. The records
of the ofllco nro now as complete as these
of any department of the city. It is now
posslblo to tell the character and quan
tity of public Improvements , not only
during the past thrco 'years , but for
everything done since the organization of
the board , for which data could bo found.
The retiring chairman may bo excused
for expressing a pardonable pride in
leaving such a splendid record. It Is a
credit to himself and source of gratifica
tion to the taxpayers.
IK ONK is to judge by the dispatches
sent broadcast over the country by the
prohibitionists , Kansas Is again blood
ing at every pore. The agitators are
sweating blood and threatening to ap
peal to the shotgun and the ropo. Wo
are told In tropical lines that the people
are up in arms against the original
package , that "tho supreme court sa
loon must go" at any cost of blood and
treasure , and indignation meetings are
being hold everywhere to reassert
the "settled policy" and provide
ways and moans for a relent
less war on everything that
smacks of budgo. All this fuss
and f umo is on the surface. It Is cooked
up by morcotinrlos for effect on congress.
Instead of being widespread , it is con
fined to two isolated sections and is en
gineered by agitators and constables who
have lost a profitable source of revenue
by winking at the joints. Tlio truth is
that the original package decision did
not increase the consumption of liquor in
tlio state. It , simply improved the qual
ity and broke up the monopoly main
tained by the drug stores and joint
keepers who "stood in" with the ruling
powers and divided the profits of the
liquor business.
Tin : senate committee on public land's
has reported a bill , which , if it becomes
a law , will land in the penitentiary some
of the prairlc.und timber firebugs that
alllict the west.t It provides for the pros
ecution and punishment of any person
who maliciously or carelessly sots lire to
the grass , briisji or undergrowth on pub
lic lands. Such person shall bo deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor , and upon con
viction flncdj not moro than three times
the value of the property destroyed and
imprisoned for not moro than thrco
years. The damage inflicted on public
and privat'e ' ' lands by prospectors ,
hunters and , evil disposed per
sons who carqlessly or purposely start
fires in dungorous places amounts to
millions of dollars annually. The forest
fires in the northwest last summer de
stroyed thousands of acres of public for
ests and inflicted incalculable damage
on the people. Tlio evil has become so
great , coupled with the indifference of
local authorities , that the national gov
ernment should promptly institute meas
ures to suppress and punish the culprits.
The passage of this or some similar law
will enlibt the co-operation of the settlers
in running down tlio firebugs.
THE republic of Bra/il is on the right
road. Tlio now constitution recently
promulgated follows closely the pro
visions of the constitution of the United
States , a fact which vastly strengthens
public confidence in the provisional gov
ernment at homo and abroad.

It Is to bo hopid that the American people
will live long ouough to loam that money is

than It is to supply pstatoos for the market ,

According to the Iowa Republican platform, there is to be "no compromise with the saloon." Of course not. It takes two parties to make a compromise. The saloon asks for no compromise so long as it can run wide open in every large city in the state.
Thanks for the political interests of Brewster and grooming the private interests of the combine, Pole Birkhofer cannot be expected to worry himself with the interests of the tax-payers. His political creators must be compensated at any cost.
The third parties have had prohibition for years in Maine, but they cannot suppress the ruling passion for office. Give them the earth with a tight board fence and it is dimes to coppers that they would climb over and attempt to regulate the notion of the prohibiting plan.
The Democrats of New Jersey are conducting a genuine educational campaign. Public meetings are being held throughout the state, at which the rank and file are initiated into the mysteries of the new secret ballot system. The movement is necessary to prevent the benighted of Jersey from showing the wrong ticket.
Now comes Philadelphia with a loud protest against the count in Chicago. The belief that the latter will take second rank in population and displace the Quaker City causes a painful awakening and a covert charge that the great Lake City has inflated the census returns. The brand and sober Quakers are unable to absorb the full significance of these booming farms annexed to Chicago.
The precious gang of republican freaks who bore the municipal saddle displayed remarkable fealty to party when they conspired to oust a republican for the benefit of a political domino who is notoriously incompetent. What else could have been expected from men whose sole idea of public duty is to fasten incompetents and sinecures on the tax-payers.
JUDGEMENT WAKURS the validity of the law prohibiting the transfer of accounts to other states to evade the garnishee law of Nebraska. The decision is an important one. It strikes down the fee sharks of Iowa who have flourished by preying upon the employees of interstate railroads. It protects the residents of Nebraska from the mercenary of other states.
OMAHA takes second rank among the pork packing cities of the country. Statistics of the product since March 1, compared with the same period last year, show an increase of forty-four thousand hogs packed, placing this city next to Chicago in the growth of this industry. The figures are a gratifying evidence of the steadily widening influence and success of the Omaha market.
THE REPUBLICANS OF Iowa have held their state convention and enunciated the principles they profess to advocate during the impending campaign. This is an off year in Iowa politics, hence the candidates become secondary to the platform.
The interest in the campaign will almost entirely center in the congressional races and the platform had to be trimmed on vital issues now pending before Congress in accord with the views of Iowa congressmen.
The endorsement of President Harrison was the compliment paid by the convention for Iowa's contingent in the various blue books.
The tariff plank is somewhat ambiguous and was doubtless drawn to mystify rather than enlighten. The rank and file of the republicans of Iowa are farmers and they certainly do not want a revision of the tariff that will make duties higher and will make farm implements, tools, building materials and fabrics for home use dearer.
On the question of silver and currency, the platform endorses the conversion of American silver bullion into silver certificates, and incidentally favors unlimited coinage of both gold and silver in the near future. On the silver question, there is as much delusion among Iowa farmers as there is among farmers west and south generally. It has been hammered into them that some way their store of money will be largely increased if the bonanza kings of Colorado, California, and Nevada are given the free use of Uncle Sam's mints to exchange eighty cents worth of silver bullion for one hundred cents in legal tenders or gold.
They do not comprehend that the only effect of unlimited coinage would be to make the bullionists and mining stock jobbers richer by millions at the expense of the whole country.
The plank pledging the party to promote the industrial and farming interests of the state is awfully, if not artfully, vague and indefinite. Whoever originated that plank would do well to play cuttlefish. He can shed more ink to say nothing than any man on this side of the Missouri.
The railroad regulation and anti-trust planks are the best features of the platform. They are specific and to the point.
The prohibition plank lacks definite shape and should have been clearer and less inverted.
On the question of pensions, the convention goes as far as it can in favor of taking care of the old soldier by promising him a service pension at an early date.
Last but not least comes the plank on prohibition, which sounds very much like the stereotyped editorial that appeared regularly every few days in an Omaha daily some years ago. "And we desire it distinctly to be understood that we do not wish to be understood," etc.
It begins with declaring "against a compromise with the saloon and pledges eternal hostility to its existence, spread, and power." It winds up with appealing to congress "to permit the states to regulate, confine, or prohibit the public bar," which means that congress shall not interfere with the saloon wherever it may be regulated under license.
In some respects, this is a marked departure. Last year's platform denounced prohibition outright and declared it to be the settled policy of the state. But last year's election was decidedly adverse to that policy and left the party in a sad plight.
Manifestly, the prohibition plank has been adopted to incorporate all elements of the party. If it accomplishes that result, the convention has done good work.
STRIKE THE KEYNOTE.
City Attorney Poppleton struck the keynote of the assessment problem when he called attention to the favoritism shown by assessors to corporations, whose valuable franchises are entirely ignored in computing the valuation of their property. The constitution of this state provides that taxes shall be levied by valuation, so that every person and corporation shall pay a tax in proportion to the valuation of his, her, or its property and franchises. If this provision of the constitution relative to the franchises of corporations were enforced, Omaha and Douglas county could add at least twenty millions to their assessment rolls.
The corporations that have been voted franchises by this city to supply it with gas, water, steam heat, electric lights, telephones, and street railway facilities are bonded and stocked for more than twenty millions, and they should pay taxes upon about one-fourth of the value which their creditors and managers have placed upon them. All of these corporations together are assessed at less than a quarter of a million. But these corporations may say that the millions of bonds they have issued represent a mortgage debt and therefore they should not be taxed upon bonds owned by eastern or foreign money syndicates.
How is it with private individuals and other corporations that have given mortgages for buildings and other improvements? Let any man borrow one hundred thousand dollars of foreign capital and invest that loan in a business block or factory and just as soon as the building is completed, the improvement, which may be made up chiefly of money borrowed on mortgage, will be returned by the assessor at one-fourth or one-fifth of the appraised value of the building and ground.
If a poor man borrows five hundred dollars and builds a little home, he is assessed upon his house and lot regardless of the mortgage.
Is it fair or equitable to practically exempt from taxation corporations which have been voted franchises worth millions and force the burden of taxation upon the poor people who have mortgaged their homes and enterprising citizens who have assumed heavy debts in the construction of business blocks, hotels, factories, and mills? The franchised corporations can certainly afford to bear their proper share of taxation. They nearly all have contracts with the city and can well afford to pay back a small part of the taxes which the city has levied for their benefit.
We venture to say that there is not another city on the continent where such rank discrimination is practiced against the owners of improved real estate and in favor of subsidized corporations, mortgage holders, and capitalists who make fortunes by loaning money. It has become a very grave question whether a man in Omaha can afford to invest his money in buildings even if he is content with five percent interest on his investment. Every year the burden of taxation is growing heavier and more property is being taken out of the local tax list for the benefit of railroads and churches and benevolent institutions that rent their promises for revenue.
If the board of county commissioners and city council really desire to make an impartial assessment of taxable property, let them also appraise the franchises of corporations and overhaul the enormous list of exempted property which is not part of railroad right-of-way nor actually occupied by churches or schools. In that field, they will find ample scope for increasing the revenue and at the same time keeping down the levy, which is almost prohibitive and next to the prohibition agitation is chiefly responsible for the depression that prevails in our real estate market.
JUNE RISE OR RUN MISSOURI,
It will startle the residents of this section to learn from the front row of Boston cult that "there is nowhere else on this continent, probably on no other continent, any phenomena quite like these presented in the month of June at any point on the lower Missouri, between Omaha and Jefferson City."
A writer on the Boston Advertiser, with an abnormal bump of imagination, professes an intimate acquaintance with the wild raging tears of the Big Muddy and pathetically informs the reader that "while the telegraphic descriptions are thrilling, they convey but a faint impression compared with the reality known to eye witnesses.
Although at the present moment the Missouri rolls by Omaha in a peaceful, noiseless sort of way, "to the Bostonian imagination it is absolutely furious." Shutting out the view of the woeful watery wastes, he indulges in this delightful chop of descriptive rot by way of comparison:
"We in New England are accustomed to what we consider sudden changes in climate, but our temperament is such indeed by a rocky mountain standard. There in a few hours the mercury will rise or fall 60 degrees. Heat comes even more suddenly than cold. One day the snow will lie in the gulches half way up the trunks of the tallest trees; and the next day it will be melting so fast, under a torrid sun, that little is to be seen save one vast down swooping sea of water, little to be heard save the awful roar of the foaming torrents."
Then, with a mighty sweep of his pencil, the modern Athenian hurls in a few hours this resistless flood over the thousands of intervening miles between Port Benton and Omaha. As a demolisher of space, he is a daisy. The trivial fact that it requires a month or more to cover the distance is not worth mentioning. To his ripe imagination, the dreamy torrent slides down with the speed of thought, reserving its power to spread disaster and death "between Omaha and Jefferson City." Then it is that the writer is lost in conjectures as he contemplates the furies turned loose. Hear him:
"As the maddened waters rush down between the states of Iowa and Missouri, Missouri and Kansas, they tear away the deep rich soil of either bank and with it all that is upon it. Houses, cattle, fencing material, the furniture of homes, and, alas! sometimes human beings, come down the valley, swept along by the irresistible flood."
All this is mighty interesting reading, but it is not true. There have been June floods on the Missouri, and vast quantities of its overflowing have been transferred from one side to the other by the constant change of the channel. But the extravagant and picturesque features of the Missouri at high water mark are intended more for the romancer and painter than for the reliable historian.
AS TO VA
A local paper quotes Mr. Birkhauser
as follows :
"I am feeling pretty good," said Mr. Birkhausor in answer to a question. "It is not the office so much as the victory gained. It will teach sense one a lesson, and it also says in plain words that Mayor Gushing cannot be run by a little sensational vagabond." According to Webster, a vagabond is
"one who wanders from place to place, having no certain dwelling; a vagrant." The person whom Birkhausor stigmatizes as "a little sensational vagabond"
has lived in Omaha nearly twenty-seven years; he has never been known to stroll from Omaha for more than thirty days at any one time. He has owned property and paid taxes in this city for twenty-six years and the money he has paid in taxes on his property in Omaha during his residence here would buy all the property Birkhausor owns in Omaha and leave several thousand dollars of margin besides.
The title of vagabond as defined by Webster would almost apply to Birkhausor who has been strolling from place to place over since he came to this state, and only located in Omaha a few years ago because he was completely played out politically and otherwise in Richardson county where he had strolled from town to town and had trumped through every political camp.
Neither Gushing nor Birkhauser has any claim upon Omaha on the score of residence or contribution to the city's growth. Both of them are now foraging on the taxpayers and property owners of this city and the less they say about vagabonds the better it will be for them.
It was not the office Birkhausor was seeking, of course. He who has been an office seeker till his life only wanted a little vindication and victory. If he doesn't want the office for which he is not competent and never will be, and if he is satisfied with his glorious victory, will he give us a proof of his sincerity by declining or resigning the office which he doesn't want and cannot fill excepting the signing of his salary voucher for two hundred dollars a month?
IN CHANGE from the chairmanship of the board of public works, Major Balcombe completes an enviable record of faithful devotion to the interests of the taxpayer. While BKK has criticized many of the acts of the board during these three years, yet on the whole the chairman and his colleagues have so conscientiously guarded the vast interests intrusted to them that no taint of scandal tinges the record. To Major Balcombe is largely due the credit of having brought order out of chaos in the business of the office. When he took charge of the office the so-called records were a jumble of figures, without order or intelligent arrangement. It was impossible to extract from the confused mass an accurate statement of the business of the board. All this was promptly changed and the vast business of the board reduced to a system. The records of the office are now as complete as those of any department of the city. It is now possible to tell the character and quantity of public improvements, not only during the past three years, but for everything done since the organization of the board, for which data can be found.
The retiring chairman may be excused for expressing a pardonable pride in leaving such a splendid record. It is a credit to himself and source of gratification to the taxpayers.
ONE is to judge by the dispatches sent broadcast over the country by the prohibitionists, Kansas is again boiling at every pore. The agitators are sweating blood and threatening to appeal to the shotgun and the rope. We are told in tropical terms that the people are up in arms against the original package, that "the supreme court saloon must go" at any cost of blood and treasure, and indignation meetings are being held everywhere to reassert the "settled policy" and provide ways and means for a relentless war on everything that smacks of budgo. All this fuss and fury is on the surface. It is cooked up by agitators for effect on congress. Instead of being widespread, it is confined to two isolated sections and is engineered by agitators and constables who have lost a profitable source of revenue by winking at the joints. The truth is that the original package decision did not increase the consumption of liquor in the state. It simply improved the quality and broke up the monopoly maintained by the drug stores and joint keepers who "stood in" with the ruling powers and divided the profits of the liquor business.
The senate committee on public lands has reported a bill, which, if it becomes a law, will land in the penitentiary some of the prairie and timber firebugs that afflict the west. It provides for the prosecution and punishment of any person who maliciously or carelessly sets fire to the grass, brush, or undergrowth on public lands. Such person shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction fined not more than three times the value of the property destroyed and imprisoned for not more than three years. The damage inflicted on public and private lands by prospectors, hunters, and evil disposed persons who carelessly or purposely start fires in dangerous places amounts to millions of dollars annually. The forest fires in the northwest last summer destroyed thousands of acres of public forests and inflicted incalculable damage on the people. The evil has become so great, coupled with the indifference of local authorities, that the national government should promptly institute measures to suppress and punish the culprits. The passage of this or some similar law will enlist the cooperation of the settlers in running down the firebugs.
THE republic of Brazil is on the right road. The new constitution recently promulgated follows closely the provisions of the constitution of the United States, a fact which vastly strengthens public confidence in the provisional government at home and abroad.

Memphis (It/ma / Prank Welsh and three negroes were hanged at Memphis, Tenn., and Welsh drew the color line, The four were to die together, but he objected, and they had a special hanging for his bones about an hour after the drop fell with the other three.
Common Sense and Indifferent.
It is to be hoped that the American people will live long enough to learn that money is primarily a commodity, and that it is not the proper business of congress to supply the market with this commodity, or supply a market for the sale of the commodity, any more than it is to supply pastures for the market, or with a market for the sale of the pastures.
Talking Too Much.
From the remarks of Mr. Powderly and Mr. Gompers one might suppose that the Federation of Labor was a body of curses and assassins, and the Knights of Labor an organization of "scabs." But they are only rival labor organizations, and this is simply how they look to the disturbed imaginations of their respondents, leaders, who fear each other's power.
Demolition of Constitutional Theories.
In former years "it was the constitutional theory of the democratic party that slavery was national and property sectional, and it went to war to establish that doctrine. Opposition to a national election law is based on the idea that fair elections are sectional and fraudulent ones national, that any state may enact constitutionally laws to prevent fair elections for presidents and members of congress, but that congress cannot enact constitutionally laws to secure honest elections.

APPROXIMATING THE CENSUS, Estimated Population of the Four Leading Cities of Nebraska, OMAHA TO THE FRONT IN GREAT SHAPE, Colored Masons and Odd Fellows Hold Enjoyable Picnic Stomachs Case Taken Under Advice Capital News.

B. and Thomas H. Hylo, proprietors of the Evening News. The trial of the publishers of the paper consumed the major portion of Judge Cochrane's time yesterday, and this forenoon his honor listened to the arguments of the opposing attorneys. In the so-called libelous article in the News, it was alleged that Stominski had been exposed twice and signed in The Bureaus. That at one time he had attempted to slug an Omaha reporter and that he had caused to be distributed in Lincoln pamphlets of an obscene character. The first statement was sustained by copies of The Bureaus of the dates of November 18, 21, and 29, 1889, wherein Stominski was charged with bigamy, seduction, and welling the Polish vote of Omaha. To sustain the second charge of attempting to slug an Omaha reporter, the Lincoln correspondent of The Bureaus was called and he testified that he was in the police court at Omaha at the time that Stominski was arraigned for attempting to assault Reporter Connors. The third charge of causing to be distributed obscene literature was testified to by Louie Blunemouth, a fourteen-year-old boy, who declared that Stominski was the man who hired him to distribute the pamphlets. After hearing the arguments of the attorneys, Judge Cochrane said that he would take the case under advisement until Saturday. STATE NEWS.

The interesting case of Charles Allbright vs Thomas Mansfield was ended in the district court today. Allbright is desirous of having the custody of his infant daughter, but Mrs. Mansfield is equally anxious to keep the pretty little child. The father claimed that the Mansfields were not proper custodians of the girl, as he alleged that they were in the habit of using intoxicating liquors. Mrs. Mansfield indignantly denied this and said that the wish of the mother of the child was that she (Mrs. Mansfield) should keep it after her death. The judge decided that Mrs. Mansfield should keep the infant. CITY NEWS AND NOTES. The new plat of Hayclock, the suburb where the car shops are to be located, has been filed with the county clerk.

[Special Telegram to The Daily.] It is now pretty well known that several stockbrokers knew of the decision of the court of appeals on the sugar trust case before it was publicly announced, and by selling sugar stock on Saturday were able to rake in barrels of money. The man charged with having sold the information is John C. Ricekun, a broker, democratic assembly leader and local politician, who has a great clientèle. He came down from Albany two days before the decision with valuable information as to how the decision would be sold, and after many futile attempts at last found a purchaser in a big firm of brokers, who are said to have cleared up $60,000 in the deal. This business of selling decisions on stock cases before delivered is one which has nourished many at various times, and especially in the days of the notorious Judge Barnard.

Cane WILL Do Electric.
LONDON, Juno 20. [Special Cablegram to
Tim Bun.] The marquis of Huntington has
written a letter to the Liberal unionists of
Barrow-in-Furness stating that he does not
encourage them to take the initiative in opposing the re-election of Cane, unionist
member of the House of Commons, who resigned his seat recently for the purpose of
instigating the feeling of his constituents in regard
to the licensing clause of the local taxation act. The unionists, therefore, at a meeting
decided to offer no opposition to the re-election of Cane.
Chancellor Von Caprivi and Office
Prussian Views.
BERLIN, Juno 20. [Special Cablegram to
Tim Bun.] In the Reichstag yesterday
Chancellor von Caprivi, speaking on the
army bill, said he contemplated an extension
of the privilege of relief from service at the
expiration of two years as a permanent
measure,
Baron von Maltzahn, Imperial secretary of
the treasury, asked the house to set aside formal consideration. He said it had not
been shown that Germany was unable to
bear the financial burdens which the bill
entailed. The amount of new taxes required
would depend upon the expenditures under
the insurance law. It was impossible, he
said, to reduce the duties on grain.
Herr Robel declared that the annexing of
Alsace-Lorraine had caused the present
armaments. He attacked the details of the
military organization and asserted that the
number of suicides in the army had increased,
The minister of war refuted Robel's assertions.
He maintained that even after the retrocession
of Alsace-Lorraine France
would increase her army, which already exceeded the German army, by 400,000 men.
The bill was merely the result of French
military law. It was impossible at present
to accede to a two years' service.
The Reichstag today rejected all amendments to the army bill and approved the first
paragraph of the bill which fixes the peace
effective force at 180,000 men until April, 1914.
All the Members of the Municipal
Council but One Resign.
ROME, Juno 20. [Special Cablegram to
Tim BKK.] There was a heated debate at
the meeting of the municipal council last
night in regard to the bill introduced into
the chamber of deputies by Prime Minister
Crispi to assist in the organization of the
financial affairs of the municipality. At the
conclusion of the discussion all the members
of the council except Signor Garibaldi resigned as a protest against the premier's
measure. Signer Garibaldi declined that he
would retain his seat. His friends cheered
him heartily, but the others in the audience
hissed. The reporters who were in attendance at the meeting interfered on behalf of
Signer Garibaldi and an altercation with his
opponents in the audience ensued, It was
found necessary to call in the police to quell the disturbance.
Newspapers for Libel.
PARIIS, Juno 20. [New York Herald Cable-
Special to Tim: Bun.] It will be remembered
in connection with the mysterious murder of
Province crime that a report was set on foot
by an evening newspaper of the arrest of an
American citizen, Carl Beth Potter de Garmo,
on suspicion of being Marie Gagnon's murderer.
He instituted legal proceedings against the newspaper which had so grossly libeled him,
not only against the Paris, but against the Gaulois,
Justice, Egality, and Petit Central, which published the story from the evening contemporary,
with a contradiction. From each of these four newspapers de Garmo claims 10,000 francs damages.
The suit came up for a hearing in the ninth
police court today. The magistrates fixed the security at 1,000 francs and adjourned the case for three weeks.
Agitation Among the Roaches.
PISTOIA, Juno 20. [Special Cablegram to
Tim: BKK.] Emperor Francis Joseph gave a
court dinner last evening to the Austrian and
Hungarian delegations. In the course of
conversation after dinner his majesty, referring
to the agitation among the Czech population
in Bohemia, said Bohemia was needlessly excited by empty verbiage.
In reply to a remark of Dr. Regler, leader of the old Czechs, that the government might
appease the public by permitting Czech to be
used as the official language in Bohemian
home affairs, the emperor said the protection
of the interests of the service was the first
consideration. Matters ought never to reach
such a pass that government officials should
not know the German language. His majesty
deplored the agitation among the young
Czechs and expressed the hope that affairs in
Bohemia would be speedily improved.

COL. CHASE'S ' SAURY BILL ,
It Will be Passed Upon by the State Supreme
premo Oonrt.
HAD THE COUNCIL RIGHT TO DEPOSE HIM ?
The KfMnyorVi Clnlin For Salary
Granted by Judge Glnrknou
anil an Appeal Ordered
Taken.
The case of Champion S. Chase ngalnst the
cllythrough Which ho seeks to recover n bal-
nnco of fin"/ ) . ! ! ? with Interest nt 7 per cent
from April II , J3S.1 to May 12 , 1800 , claimed
to bo duo as n balance on salary for mayor ,
was brought to a sudden termination yester
day when Judge Clarkson surprised nil con
cerned by announcing his decision to then
and there hear no moro testimony , dccldo It/
as u ) ) olnt of law , Instruct the jury to llnd for
plalntlfOmd Imvo the caao go to tlio supreme
court forthwith.
Sofurns they have gone , the proceedings
have proved Interesting for several reasons.
When the city council ousted Colonel Chase
from the onico of mayor ho was succeed by Pat
rick Murphy , who had been president of the
council. The colonel brought quo warranto
proceedings to oust Murphy. Shortly
after the close of the term Judge Wnkeloy do-
cidcd Unit the council had no power to Im
peach a mayor ; that Chase was entitled to the
ofllco and Murphy was u usurper.
The present case was called late
Wednesday afternoon , but some very
warm If not bitter words were
exchanged by opposing counsel , Mr. Pop
ploton for the city and Messrs. Baldwin ft
jBstcllo for Chaso. Itsprang from Mr. Bald win
offering nvidcnco to show that Chase had of
fered to perform the duties of mayor. He re
ferred to the then council as n mob and said
that they had hounded Chase utmost to his
death.
Mr. Poppleton replied that ho did not want
to "unrover the conin. " but that if this evi
dence were introduced ho would do so.
And HO they had it until a few minutes
later when court adjourned.
Thorn was no particularly loving light shin
ing In the eyes of Messrs. Poppleton nnd
Baldwin when court opened yesterday mornIng -
Ing , but they "held" themselves iiuito well
considering the circumstances.
Mr. Baldwin seemed to makcn special
point of objecting nnd taking an exception to
almost every question put to witnesses by
Mr. Poppleton. This course of action was
continued with so much enthusiastic persis
tency that Mr. Poppleton's face began a
\vholo entertainment of the pantomlno order ,
because ho said rcallv hut about ono word to
Baldwin's dozen. Slcarcely would Mr. Pop
pleton address n question tothowitness when
Mr. Baldwin's long right arm would bo dis
covered moving aloft like a minlaturo derrick.
It was the signal that ho was about to object ,
nnd Mr. Poppleton , catching sight of the
towering member nnd divining with un
ncutcncss born of long experience as to Just
what wax coming , would turn intensely red ,
gasp with worried amazement at the persist
ency of his opponent nnd then gradually
square around with Ills features expressive
r of "Well , Baldwin , you'd bettor never stop
I talking ! "
" No liner exhibition of self control has
been seen before the Douglas county bar in
many u long term.
Isaac S. Hascall was called by the defense.
> Ho was a member of the council
f nt the tlmo Chase was removed. His
jjj testimony was very brief. Ho said that
jM , < just before Chase was removed ho found him
f nt homo prostrated.
, Joe Hcdneld , another ex-councilman of the
Chase regime , said that the colonel per
formed no duties nor offered to perform any
nflor his removal.
Mr. Popploton then railed John Groves ,
the presimt city cleric , who brought with him
a volume that ho described ns the records of
the council meeting of Juno HO , 1SSI , which
contained the ousting proceedings ,
i Mr. Baldwin's right arm sought the ceiling
without n moment's delay.
"Well now whatf" asked Mr. Poppleton
from belli ml his rapidly reddening face.
"Wo concede that the rouncll shut the door
ngalnst Colonel Chase , " began Mr. Baldwin ,
"but if tlio council had no power to take
such action , the action can have tto legal
effect. "
Hero the court took a hand and asked :
' Is your claim , Mr. Baldwin , that tlio coun
cil hud no power to remove Chase based on
Judge Wnkoloy's decision ? "
Mr. Baldwin No , it is based pu the law ,
but is backed up by Judge Wukolcy's opinion.
The Court IJo you consider Judge Wake-
lev's decision conclusive !
Mr. Baldwin Yes , sir. At least it has
never been reversed.
Tlio Court I would llko to hear Mr. Pop
ploton.
Mr. Estello Ono word , your honor. It
strikes mo there is but ono issue in this case ,
nuil that is did or did not Colonel Chase re
fuse to perform the duties of the onicc !
Mr. Popploton I hud not prepared myself
to answer the point raised by Mr. Baldwin.
' -i I , like Mr. Estollo , see but ono point , whether
V or no Colonel Chase performed the duties ,
L and I propose to show that if Chase was
\ . ousted it was because of the very point I have
t just named. None of the city councilman
were caned into mat uecreo or .iiiugo wnico-
ley's which Mr. Baldwin Is continually talk
ing about. That decrco was solely nnd en
tirely a Patrick Murphy affair.
. Judge Clarkson then proceeded to tempo
rarily end the hearing in the manner noted
ubovo.

CIlKiailTON'S TWELFTH.

The faces of Edward Creliruton nnd his

It was the gala night of the year at the col

It was an evening of debate and a most cn-
joyablo evening it was. the intention of the
management being to exhibit a regular meeting
of the society , ovllvened by musical selections
prepared for the occasion
The mooting was called to order by the
president for the evening , Mr. John Danlhy ,
and the calling of the roll , the reading of the
minutes of the previous meeting and all the
routine work of a regular session was gene
through with.
The president announced the question for
debate :
"Hesolved. That the Government Should
Own the Railroads. "
He also stated that Patrick E. McKllllp
and Michael P. O'Connor would speak for the
anirmatlvo nnd William E. Barry nnd James
C. Klnslcr for the negatlvc.nnd that in refuta
tion of the arguments , William P. Flynn
would exert his powers In behalf of the nega
tive and Francis P. Gallagher for the afllrm-
ativo.
Tlio Hoffman orchestra rendered as an over
ture "Tho Caliph Bagdad. " most acceptably ,
and the debate opened witii argument by Mr.
Patrick McKillip.
The salutary effect that a governmental
control of the railroads would have upon the
labor situation was the principal point made _
by the speaker. If this great enterprise
should bo achieved , ho said , strikes and lock
outs would no longer ensue ; but , as the rail
road system was now conducted , these com
panies , represented the ranKcst of monopolies.
Competition would not periodically bo af
fected if all shippers could transport their
goods at the same rates. Tlicso men who con
trolled the railroads and other monopolies of
trade had already absorbed moro than one-
half of the icsourcos of the nation , thereby
injuring to an equal per cent the laboring
classes. Pooling and the other evils that the
railroads are said to bo heir to were touched
upon by tlio speaker.
Mr. Barry , forjho negative , asked the gen
tleman who had "preceded him if ho baa con
templated the" expense that such an under
taking as ho favored would cost the United
States. The estimated cost of the railroads
in the United States was 5100,000,000 , nnd
tliis would not bo all that they would cost the
government.
And what a spectacle this government
would present in descending to the level to
which It would bo compelled to descend in
the compotlon such a possession would re
quire of it. Before the government should
undertake this purchase lot it assure the na
tion that It was able to take cans of what it
had already undertaken. What of the un
protected coasts ? The negroes ? The In
dians ? Why , if the government had its mil
lions to expend , why should it not relieve the
oppressed farmers 1 '
If tills purchase should bo undertaken , the
state would have a two-fold character ono
essential and its own , the other ill-lilting and
unseumlng.
The railroads were the channels through
which the wliolo currency of the
country flows. There was in their manage
ment that which required continued
concentration of thought ana action.
The influence of such an ownership by the
government upon ourpoltlels would ho de
plorable. They know this from tlio present
grasping for money ami power on tlio part of
the corporations Alonoy was all too power
ful In politics now and what would bo the re
sult if all the wealth of all the railroads
should ho added to what politicians now con
trol ? . The railroads , as a private possession
could bo managed at less expense. With
them as an accession , the state would deal a
staggering blow to private enterprise and the
law would bo arbitrary and might bo followed
by otncrs moro arbitrary , until all private
enterprises of the nation should have been
uesiroycu.
Michael O'Connor , for the anirmatlvo , was
the next speaker. It was a principle of all
governments and especially of this frco
country , ho said , that no man or body of men
shall Inturfcro with nnyono else , nnd that
success or failure should bo duo solely to
talent and energy or the lack of it , and yet It
was not n flagrant breach of this law of
equity for railroads to discriminate ngalnst
those who wished to use them. The rail
roads wcro publio highways and the public
was entitled to equal rights from them. In
vlow of this , any discrimination on tlio part
of the railroads was contrary to the law of
equity. Yet the railroads did discriminate
In rates between phu-o nnd place nnd shipper
and shipper. A remedy for this stuto of
iiffiilrs could bo accomplished by placing
roads In the hands of the government. In
whoso eye there was no partiality. The
preservation of our government demanded
that the monopoly bo done awny with.
Tlio violation of the common law by tlio rail
roads by open discrimination was sufllcicnt
to condemn them. Then , too , their wealth
nnd power gixvo thorn an umluo in'llnenco
over politics , This was conceded. Their
Influence over labor also was too great , If
the railroads should bo entrusted to the gov
ernment , thcro would bo none of the strikes
that had shocked tlio country in the past. If
the government controlled the railroads the
politics would bo purer , labor's interests
would bo advanced and many of the serious
ovlls that now exist would bo remedied.
James Kinslcr In closing the negative
nskcd : "Should these railroads , this private
property , accumulated by the work of years ,
bo taken from the owners , oven if they wore
allowed a fair price ? Our human nature
cries 'No ! ' emphatically 'No ! ' To say
Yes' would bo to strlko a death
blow to the enterprise of Americans. Manu
facturers would tremble , the miner would
cease to seek treasure from ttio bowels of tlio
uiirth and owners of steamships would bo
aghast , and why ! Because they could not
but fed that they were in the power of n
huge octopus awaiting but an opportunity to
crush them nnd to soi/o their property also.
The carutul reader finds that these ovlls do
not exist In this country nlono. and wo can
reasonably conclude that the defect Is duo
mere to tlio weakness of human nature than
to any error In system. Lot the state keep
within the limits of the constitution nnd gov
ern corporations by proper legislation. Can
not the state control these corporations with
out owning them I If not , surely it could not
control their own functions. "
The speaker quoted statistics bearing upon
the question ,
Continuing ho said : "Whllo we do not
deny that the railroads often exert too much
Influence in politics , we would llko to ask
ono question i Would politics IK > purer If the
politicians controlled the railroads tool"
In his peroration Mr. Klnslur dwelt forcibly
upon the waste of talent that would ensue
under government control. '
William P. Flynn , lu refutation , ridiculed
thQ argument that the present system would
be Improved by state control. He predicted
even u moro deplorable condition of affairs.
As to the question of monopoly he asked i
"In what other Industries during the last live
your * has thcro been moro compe
tition and loss combination ) Wherever com
petition is possible monopoly cannot exist.
Show mo u country where the railroads are
owned by the government and I will show
you a county overflowing with criminals. "
As for Hooting , the sm'aker cited Apple-ton's
auuual as proof that the clause lu the Inter
state commerce law forbidding It had never
been violated ; that the iKmcsnlon of the rail
roads would glvo the county Increased
wealth , the speaker bad n pronounced convic
tion to the contrary. His recapitulation nnd
conclusion was powerful , brilliant and con
vincing.
Francis Gallagher , in refutation of the ar
gument of the negative said that man should
assist the many In preference to the few.
The reduction of rates would benefit the poor ,
nnd therefore the majorltyof the citizens of this
nation. It had been argued that government
control would boa blow at private enterprise ,
Why I If rates were reduced could not shli -
pors handle their warrs to a greater ad-
vantagol Ho did not claim that tlio purchase
of the railroads by the government would
purify politics , but could u worse condition
In this respect exist than exists at the pres
ent tlmo !
The chairman In conclusion said that ho
could not refrain from expressing his sense
of Incompotcncy and asking for Indulgence In
closing the discussion to recapitulate the nr-
gumcnts offered , and to offer n decision was a
task that could well be left to ono moro
teamed than ho. Ho reviewed very ably the
arguments offered , and finally said that as ho
had been "approached" by both sides ho
would make no decision , but leave it nil with
a power higher than any on earth and the In
telligence of his auditors.
Then followed the distribution of prizes.

The republican central committee of this
congressional district met at Lincoln yester
day to fix a tlmo unit place for holding the
convention. There \vOro ntno members pres
ent , J. B , Furay , chairman , representing
Douglas coupty. Tlie object of issuing the
call so early , ns explained by Mr. Furay , waste
to lot the various counties that feel so dis
posed kill two birds with ono stone ; that Is ,
enable ono convention to select delegates for
both the state and congressional conventions.
In accordance with'n resolution introduced
by Church Howe nnd unanimously adopted
at n meeting held September 31,18s8 , the ap
portionment of delegates was based upon the
vote received by Hon. W. J. Connoll. As
his left the commlttoo no discretion , it de
termined to glvo ono dolcgato ut largo to each
county nnd one for every 150 votes or major
fraction thereof received by Mr. Council. Ou

Then followed quite an animated discussion
as to the tlmo for holding the convention. A
majority seemed to think that it ought to

A box of Stifttu Matclic * Vitt with | COL. CHASE'S "SARY BILL", Will be Passed Upon by the State Supreme Court.
HAD THE COUNCIL RIGHT TO DEPOSE HIM?
The Mayor's Claim For Salary Granted by Judge Clarkson and an Appeal Ordered Taken.
The case of Champion S. Chase against the city through which he seeks to recover a balance of fees with interest at 7 percent from April 12, 1835, to May 12, 1800, claimed to be due as a balance on salary for mayor, was brought to a sudden termination yesterday when Judge Clarkson surprised all concerned by announcing his decision to then and there hear no more testimony, decide the case as a point of law, instruct the jury to find for plaintiff and have the case go to the supreme court forthwith.
Suffice it to say, they have gone, the proceedings have proved interesting for several reasons. When the city council ousted Colonel Chase from the office of mayor, he was succeeded by Patrick Murphy, who had been president of the council. The colonel brought quo warranto proceedings to oust Murphy. Shortly after the close of the term, Judge Wankeloy decided that the council had no power to impeach a mayor; that Chase was entitled to the office and Murphy was a usurper.
The present case was called late Wednesday afternoon, but some very warm, if not bitter words were exchanged by opposing counsel, Mr. Poppleton for the city and Messrs. Baldwin & Estell for Chase. It sprang from Mr. Baldwin offering evidence to show that Chase had offered to perform the duties of mayor. He referred to the then council as a mob and said that they had hounded Chase to his death.
Mr. Poppleton replied that he did not want to "uncover the conclusion," but that if this evidence were introduced, he would do so.
And so they had it until a few minutes later when court adjourned.
There was no particularly loving light shining in the eyes of Messrs. Poppleton and Baldwin when court opened yesterday morning, but they "held" themselves in good humor considering the circumstances.
Mr. Baldwin seemed to make a special point of objecting and taking an exception to almost every question put to witnesses by Mr. Poppleton. This course of action was continued with so much enthusiastic persistence that Mr. Poppleton's face began to take on a whole entertainment of the pantomime order, because he said hardly a word to Baldwin's dozen. Seldom would Mr. Poppleton address a question to the witness when Mr. Baldwin's long right arm would be discovered moving aloft like a miniature derrick. It was the signal that he was about to object, and Mr. Poppleton, catching sight of the towering member and divining with unmatchable ease born of long experience as to just what was coming, would turn intensely red, gasp with worried amazement at the persistence of his opponent, and then gradually square around with his features expressive of "Well, Baldwin, you'd better never stop talking!"
"No finer exhibition of self-control has been seen before the Douglas county bar in many a long term."
Isaac S. Hascall was called by the defense. He was a member of the council at the time Chase was removed. His testimony was very brief. He said that just before Chase was removed, he found him at home prostrated.
Joe Hendrick, another ex-councilman of the Chase regime, said that the colonel performed no duties nor offered to perform any after his removal.
Mr. Poppleton then called John Groves, the present city clerk, who brought with him a volume that he described as the records of the council meeting of June 30, 1855, which contained the ousting proceedings.
Mr. Baldwin's right arm sought the ceiling without a moment's delay.
"Well now what?" asked Mr. Poppleton from beneath his rapidly reddening face.
"We concede that the council shut the door against Colonel Chase," began Mr. Baldwin, "but if the council had no power to take such action, the action can have no legal effect."
Here the court took a hand and asked: "Is your claim, Mr. Baldwin, that the council had no power to remove Chase based on Judge Wankeloy's decision?"
Mr. Baldwin: "No, it is based on the law, but is backed up by Judge Wankeloy's opinion."
The Court: "Do you consider Judge Wankeloy's decision conclusive?"
Mr. Baldwin: "Yes, sir. At least it has never been reversed."
The Court: "I would like to hear Mr. Poppleton."
Mr. Estell: One word, your honor. It strikes me there is but one issue in this case, and that is whether or not Colonel Chase refused to perform the duties of the office!
Mr. Poppleton: I had not prepared myself to answer the point raised by Mr. Baldwin. Like Mr. Estell, I see but one point, whether or not Colonel Chase performed the duties, and I propose to show that if Chase was ousted, it was because of the very point I have just named. None of the city councilmen were called into that decree or Wankeloy's which Mr. Baldwin is continually talking about. That decree was solely and entirely a Patrick Murphy affair."
Judge Clarkson then proceeded to temporarily end the hearing in the manner noted above.
District Court.
The trouble in the Coliseum association has broken out again. This time General W.W. Lowe and W.R. Mards bring suit in the county court against M.S. Lindsay for $1,600, which is alleged to be the balance due on a deal in which Lowe and Mards transferred to Lindsay 100 shares of Coliseum Block for $3,000. Of this amount $1,400 was paid, and the suit was brought for the balance. General Lowe has also commenced suit on his own account against Lindsay for $375 on three notes.
Eva Oliver has sued Fred Drexel to recover $103, principal and interest on a real estate deal.
Meyer Hulman has sued Eva Oliver for $750, due as ground rent.
Joseph H. Ciallahorot & Co. have sued E.H. Sheldon to recover $209.50 on a judgment obtained in Iowa. ###

UNION PACIFIC RAILROADS.
Election to Salt Lake City.
After the day's work had been finished at the Union Pacific shops yesterday afternoon, the "Pioneers," to the number of forty, assembled at the Durango hose house to consider the advisability of holding a picnic some time during the present summer. After a lengthy discussion, Salt Lake City was decided upon, and the president of the association, T.H. Dalloy, was instructed to confer with Vice President Holeomb for the purpose of making arrangements and report at a meeting to be called at some future time.
This organization was organized in 1880 by the employees of the company in Omaha, with a membership of about two hundred, the only requirement for membership being five years' continuous service in the employ of the company. Since that time the working force at the shops have been reduced, old-timers have died, and others have moved away, so that now there are but about seventy members left. Of the officers, T.H. Dalloy is president, A.H. Smith secretary, and John Ulco treasurer.
It has been years since the association took any excursion, but this year they hope to have one which in the amount of pleasure enjoyed will be sufficient to make up for the summers lost. None of the veterans were affected by the recent reduction.

CHURCHILL'S TWELFTH.
A Highly Interesting Closing of the College on the Hill.
The faces of Edward Creighton and his loving wife, both of whom are now numbered amongst the great and silent majority, smiled down from painted canvas upon the pupils of Creighton College Wednesday night. They were reverently gazed upon, also, by three hundred friends of the Institution who had gathered to listen to the exercises of the twelfth annual commencement. To Mr. and Mrs. Edward Creighton, this college, which has now left the days of small beginnings and has begun to achieve things that are greater, owes its existence and the students that come and go, year after year, learn to love and revere the memory of the generous founders. It was the gala night of the year at the college. Twenty young gentlemen with white society badges sat upon the stage. They were the members of the debating society who were to conduct the principal exercises of the evening and were as follows: James C. Kingsley, vice president, William E. Barry, John Danahy, Patrick Dolan, Patrick A. Donovan, Maury Donnelly, Bart E. Ford, William P. Flynn, Francis P. Gallagher, Cornelius T. Healy, Francis T. Kennedy, Albert V. Kingsley, Patrick A. McGovern, Patrick E. McKillip, Philip M. McMillan, Charles P. Morlarty, Martin B. Murray, Michael P. O'Connor, Bernard T. O'Neil, Edmund Snyder, Francis A. Stockdale. As many learned professors in black cassocks occupied seats in the front row of chairs, and a hundred students sat in decorous silence near them. The friends of the institution filled the remaining space. Among the resident clergy present were Fathers Choka, Colanor, Moriarty, Molloy, Hillon, S.J., Koopmans, S.J., and Fitzgibbon of Fremont. It was an evening of debate and a most enjoyable evening it was, the intention of the management being to exhibit a regular meeting of the society, opened by musical selections prepared for the occasion. The meeting was called to order by the president for the evening, Mr. John Danahy, and the calling of the roll, the reading of the minutes of the previous meeting and all the routine work of a regular session was gone through with. The president announced the question for debate: "Resolved That the Government Should Own the Railroads." He also stated that Patrick E. McKillip and Michael P. O'Connor would speak for the affirmative and William E. Barry and James C. Kingsley for the negative, and that in refutation of the arguments, William P. Flynn would exert his powers in behalf of the negative and Francis P. Gallagher for the affirmative. The Hoffman orchestra rendered as an overture "The Caliph of Bagdad" most acceptably, and the debate opened with argument by Mr. Patrick McKillip. The salutary effect that a governmental control of the railroads would have upon the labor situation was the principal point made by the speaker. If this great enterprise should be achieved, he said, strikes and lockouts would no longer ensue; but, as the railroad system was now conducted, these companies, represented the rankest of monopolies. Competition would not periodically be affected if all shippers could transport their goods at the same rates. These men who controlled the railroads and other monopolies of trade had already absorbed more than one-half of the resources of the nation, thereby injuring to an equal percent the laboring classes. Pooling and the other evils that the railroads are said to be heir to were touched upon by the speaker. Mr. Barry, for the negative, asked the gentleman who had "preceded him if he had contemplated the expense that such an undertaking as he favored would cost the United States. The estimated cost of the railroads in the United States was $100,000,000, and this would not be all that they would cost the government. And what a spectacle this government would present in descending to the level to which it would be compelled to descend in the complications such a possession would require of it. Before the government should undertake this purchase, let it assure the nation that it was able to take care of what it had already undertaken. What of the unprotected coasts? The negroes? The Indians? Why, if the government had its millions to expend, why should it not relieve the oppressed farmers? If this purchase should be undertaken, the state would have a two-fold character, one essential and its own, the other ill-fitting and unseemly. The railroads were the channels through which the whole currency of the country flows. There was in their management that which required continuous concentration of thought and action. The influence of such an ownership by the government upon our politics would be deplorable. They know this from the present grasping for money and power on the part of the corporations. Alone was all too powerful in politics now and what would be the result if all the wealth of all the railroads should be added to what politicians now control? The railroads, as a private possession, could be managed at less expense. With them as an accession, the state would deal a staggering blow to private enterprise and the law would be arbitrary and might be followed by others more arbitrary, until all private enterprises of the nation should have been usurped. Michael O'Connor, for the affirmative, was the next speaker. It was a principle of all governments and especially of this free country, he said, that no man or body of men shall interfere with anyone else, and that success or failure should be due solely to talent and energy or the lack of it, and yet it was not a flagrant breach of this law of equity for railroads to discriminate against those who wished to use them. The railroads were public highways and the public was entitled to equal rights from them. In view of this, any discrimination on the part of the railroads was contrary to the law of equity. Yet the railroads did discriminate in rates between place and place and shipper and shipper. A remedy for this state of affairs could be accomplished by placing the roads in the hands of the government. In whose eye there was no partiality. The preservation of our government demanded that the monopoly be done away with. The violation of the common law by the railroads by open discrimination was sufficient to condemn them. Then, too, their wealth and power gave them an undue influence over politics, This was conceded. Their influence over labor also was too great. If the railroads were entrusted to the government, there would be none of the strikes that had shocked the country in the past. If the government controlled the railroads, the politics would be purer, labor's interests would be advanced and many of the serious evils that now exist would be remedied. James Kingsley, in closing the negative, asked: "Should these railroads, this private property, accumulated by the work of years, be taken from the owners, even if they were allowed a fair price? Our human nature cries 'No!' emphatically 'No!' To say 'Yes' would be to strike a death blow to the enterprise of Americans. Manufacturers would tremble, the miner would cease to seek treasure from the bowels of the earth and owners of steamships would be aghast, and why! Because they could not but feel that they were in the power of a huge octopus awaiting but an opportunity to crush them and to seize their property also.
The careful reader finds that these ovals do not exist in this country alone, and we can reasonably conclude that the defect is due more to the weakness of human nature than to any error in system. Let the state keep within the limits of the constitution and govern corporations by proper legislation. Cannot the state control these corporations without owning them? If not, surely it could not control their own functions.
The speaker quoted statistics bearing upon the question. Continuing, he said: "While we do not deny that the railroads often exert too much influence in politics, we would like to ask one question: Would politics be purer if the politicians controlled the railroads too?" In his peroration, Mr. Kingsley dwelt forcibly upon the waste of talent that would ensue under government control.
William P. Flynn, in refutation, ridiculed the argument that the present system would be improved by state control. He predicted an even more deplorable condition of affairs. As to the question of monopoly, he asked: "In what other industries during the last five years has there been more competition and less combination? Wherever competition is possible, monopoly cannot exist. Show me a country where the railroads are owned by the government and I will show you a country overflowing with criminals."
As for shooting, the speaker cited Appleton's annual as proof that the clause in the Interstate commerce law forbidding it had never been violated; that the association of the railroads would give the country increased wealth, the speaker had a pronounced conviction to the contrary. His recapitulation and conclusion was powerful, brilliant, and convincing.
Francis Gallagher, in refutation of the argument of the negative, said that man should assist the many in preference to the few. The reduction of rates would benefit the poor, and therefore the majority of the citizens of this nation. It had been argued that government control would be a blow at private enterprise, why? If rates were reduced, could not shippers handle their wars to a greater advantage? He did not claim that the purchase of the railroads by the government would purify politics, but could a worse condition in this respect exist than exists at the present time?
The chairman, in conclusion, said that he could not refrain from expressing his sense of incompetence and asking for indulgence in closing the discussion to recapitulate the arguments offered, and to offer a decision was a task that could well be left to one more experienced than he. He reviewed very ably the arguments offered, and finally said that as he had been "approached" by both sides, he would make no decision, but leave it all with a power higher than any on earth and the intelligence of his auditors.
Then followed the distribution of prizes.

SWIMMING IN COLD WHITE BATHING.
Little Harry Gordon Moors Death is Cut-Off Lake.
There is sadness and gloom in the household of George Gordon, who resides at Nineteenth and Spruce streets. The family consists of Mr. Gordon, who is a conductor on one of the Union Pacific passenger trains, his wife and two sons. Yesterday afternoon the elder son, Harry, a bright lad of thirteen years, in company with one of his playmates, Clark Powell, left the Lake school, telling their teachers they were going up along the shore of Cut-Off lake to gather some wild flowers with which to decorate the school rooms for today's exercises.
After reaching a point just above the second end row of ice houses, the boys concluded to bathe in the lake and disrobing themselves were soon playing in the shallow water near the shore. Harry could swim a little and in paddling around got into water that was beyond his depth. He became frightened and in calling for help, strangled and went down.
Young Powell, who was near the shore, rushed from the water and ran to the ice house, where he told the workmen of the danger that surrounded his companion. They hurried to the spot, but Harry had sunk to rise no more. The men waded into the lake and in a few moments had recovered the body, but life was extinct. The body was placed in a carriage and taken home to a loving mother, who was entirely ignorant of the terrible calamity that had befallen her home.
The remains were viewed by the coroner last night and an inquest will be held at Dr. Harrington's office at 10 o'clock this morning.
Knights of Pythias annual Conclave, at Milwaukee, Wis., July 18! > O.
For this great occasion excursion tickets will be sold from all principal points in the United States and Canada to Milwaukee and return via the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway at half rates.
As its name indicates, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is the direct route to Milwaukee, and as the camp ground for the Uniformed Knights (to which point cars and trains will be run through without transfer) is located directly on this line, it will be seen that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has great advantage over other routes which are unable to furnish such facilities, and visiting Knights, their families and friends should bear this in mind when purchasing excursion tickets.
A circular giving detailed information will be mailed free upon application to A. V. H. Carpenter, general passenger agent, Milwaukee, Wis.

David Moore's Funeral.
The funeral of David Moore, the traveling man who was murdered at Ottawa, Ill., took place at 9 o'clock yesterday afternoon from the family residence on Thirty-third street, between Cumming and Burt.
The remains were encased in a handsome black cloth-covered casket, copper lined, with silver trimmings. The top of the casket was completely covered with elegant floral designs contributed by the numerous friends and relatives of the family.
Mr. Moore was a member in good standing of Hudson River commandery, Knights Templar, of Newburgh, N.Y., and he was buried with Masonic honors by St. John's lodge, Ancient Order of Free and Accepted Masons, T. H. Sudbury, master.
The services at the house were conducted by Very Reverend Dean C. H. Gardiner, and the remains were then escorted to Forest Lawn cemetery, where the Masonic burial service was rendered by St. John's lodge. The pallbearers were C. A. Abercrombie and George M. Small of St. John's lodge and O. S. Bean, Axel Meyer, W. S. Dickinson, Joseph Ogden, S. C. Newcomb, and J. F. Kirkendall.
Mr. E. Wyarong of Milwaukee, a cousin of Mrs. Moore, and Mrs. Ida Trunkoy of Chicago, a very intimate friend of Mrs. Moore, arrived yesterday. Two brothers of Mrs. Moore, who are prominent business men of New York city, telegraphed that they would not be able to reach the city in time for the funeral.
Mrs. Moore, prostrated with grief, but surrounded by loving friends, who endeavored to soothe the grief which racked her very soul.
Hylan & Walsh have taken the celebrated hospital case into the courts at last, in accordance with their threats. They have filed a voluminous document, including their bill of extras, which was knocked into a cocked hat by the commissioners, and the proceedings of the commissioners bearing upon the settlement of their claim. The firm claims that the county owes them a balance of $20,000 instead of the small sum of $17,051.07 which was allowed by the commissioners.
The Republican central committee of this congressional district met at Lincoln yesterday to fix a time and place for holding the convention. There were nine members present, J. B. Furay, chairman, representing Douglas county. The object of issuing the call so early, as explained by Mr. Furay, was to allow the various counties that feel so disposed to kill two birds with one stone; that is, to enable one convention to select delegates for both the state and congressional conventions. In accordance with a resolution introduced by Church Howe and unanimously adopted at a meeting held September 31, 1888, the apportionment of delegates was based upon the vote received by Hon. W. J. Connolly. As his left the committee no discretion, it determined to give one delegate at large to each county and one for every 150 votes or major fraction thereof received by Mr. Connolly. On that basis the apportionment will be:
County. Votes. Delegates.
Douglas 10,987 71
Lancaster 6,797 67
Cuming 2,681 21
Platte 3,761 21
Saunders 3,741 21
Richardson 4,059 15
Monroe 1,782 11
Nemaha 10,741 10
Colfax 1,077 9
Pawnee 1,017 9
Buffalo 1,367 9
Dixon 1,337 9
Cheyenne 1,087 8

Then followed quite an animated discussion as to the time for holding the convention. A majority seemed to think that it ought to come simultaneous with the various legislative district conventions, consequently September 18th was selected as the date and Plattsmouth as the place.
A Former Omaha School Teacher.
Word was received in the city yesterday of the death of Miss Susan McCowen, which occurred at San Diego, Cal., on the 18th last. Ten years ago Miss McCowen taught in the Omaha schools and subsequently taught in the deaf and dumb institute. While teaching in this city Miss McCowen fell over a high embankment at 260 Cass street. She sustained serious injuries and in a suit against the city recovered $11,000. She never regained her health, and a year or two later went to California, where, until her death, she remained an invalid.
BETTER THAN GOLD.
RESTORED HER HEALTH.
For seven years I suffered from boils, dyspepsia, and other blood affections, taking during that time great quantities of different medicines without experiencing any perceptible relief. Friends induced me to try S. A. S. It improved me from the start, and after taking several bottles, restored my health as far as I could hope for at 75 years.

Another barberous casts was tried yester
day before Judge MeOce. . It was the out
growth of the light bctweaa 1/YiU Ilcrnhardl
and the other barbcr.4 of the city to sea
whether Sunday shaving may continue In
peace and quiet or must bo relegated to ton-
sorlal holes in the wall , or dished up In orig
inal packages. Fritz came out on top , and for
awhile at least Sunday shaving will flourish
like a green bay live. As long as that lasts
commercial tourists and others who desire to
enjoy their day of rest in the shady parks
and beautiful glens of the Hlulfs will not bo
compelled to cross the river in order to have
their chins polished or their whisker * pruned.
ICmmett Tinley appeared for the barbers'
association ana Colonel W. V. Jxipp was on
hand to see that the defendant had fair play.
It will bo remembered that Bernhardl was
acquitted by a jury in Justlfo Shttiv. ' court on
Tuesday of the same charge , at which time
the prosecuting witnejs w.is Constable Co-
valt. Yesterday morning Attorney
Tinloy attempted to show that Covalt
had not acted in good faith , and been unduly
tnlluenced In his selection of a jury. All of
the Jurors were sitlipwnnid as witnesses , but
were not placed upon the stand , as the ques
tion hinged upon a legal point. Covalt was
examined to some length , and there were sev
eral lively verbal set-tos between him and
the cross-examining attorney , Mr. Finley ,
which provoked more or less merriment.
There were also several tilts between opposing
counsel , and on two or throe occasions the
judge and Colonel Happ engaged in brief and
spirited controversies. After hearing the evi
dence , the judge held that the case In Justice
Schuiv.'s court settled the matter , inasmuch
a the proceedings had been properly con
ducted , which was virtually another acquit
tal for Hcrnhardi. It was ordered , however ,
that the case go to the district court , and
that until the case is decided there , Bernhard -
hard ! will bo allowed to shave on Sundays
unmolested. The attorney for ths defense In
sisted that the case against Uernhardi also
covered those against his three workmen ,
who wore also arrested , but the judge would
not have It that way , and they will be tried
later.

ic Fountain.
The work of placing the new Bayllss park
fountain in position is progressing satisfac
torily , and attracts hundreds of spectators.
Commissioner Perogoy's "ad" in yesterday's
Bii : : for -Oi ) more bosses laid the ile.sl red ef
fect , as ho had over one thousand applications
before noon , ' ' 'ho fountain will bo entirely
put together by tomorrow night , and it is pos
sible that all the plumbing and w.itor connec
tions will also bo made by that time. It is in
tended to have the fountain In operation Sun
day If possible. It bus been suggested that it
would bo very appropriate to have tin "open-
inc" of some kind when the fountain is com
pleted , even if it is no more than the opening
of nn original package. The park commis
sioners take very kindly to the idea , and it Is
very probable that they will conclude to have
a band concert , speeches , etc. , in the park on
the evening that the fountain is put in opera
tion.
tion.AH
AH the work progresses , and the design be
come. * more npp nvnt , the beauty of the foun
tain is Increased , and publio satisfaction in
tensities accor.lingly.
It is conceded by all that there is nothing
handsomer in this part of the country , anil
the J. L. Mott iron works of New York , have
reason to bo proud of the first sample of their
work bent into this part of the country.
It is not yet decided whether or not to
light the fountain with incandescent lights
this year , but it is the generally expressed
wish that the work shall not now bo loft half
dune alter such an auspicious beginning has
been made. All that la neeassary to give the
final touch to the foundation is the incan
descent lighting. This light in colored glass
would give a beautiful effect , and it is hoped
that the arrangements already partially com
pleted lor putting it in will not bo allowed to
drop. *
The sentiment of many who visited the
park yesterday was expressed by one-heavy
taxpayer who declared , "I can now see plainly
where our park levy Is expanded , and I be
lieve that I can see my two mill tax right
hero. I don't suppose that this is all of it ,
in fact I know that it Isn't half of it , yet I
would be satisfied If it was the whole , for I
can got more than that amount of satisfaction
looking at this fountain. It is a beautiful
thing , mid will bo as great nn attraction to
strangers us it will bo to our own citizens. I
believe In keeping the- public improvements
abreast if not ahead of the city , and the park
commissioners have done that In this respect.
They have done a big thing and they should
bo given credit for it. "

Paw , III. Ther | nelco was one of the * schol
ars killed In the school house. Mr. Fonda
says the calamity cannot bo described , and
the attempts of the reporters have been at
tended by many Inaccuracies of statement.
For instance , some of the papers have stated
that of the seven who were killed In the school
house , the nearest body wan picked up a tulle
or more away. The fact Is that the one farth
est from the school house was not more than
twenty roils away , the others being much
nearer. The teacher and the children were
stripped of nearly every bit of clothing , the
terrible whirl of the wind tearing their gar
ments away from them. Their death must
have been almost Instantaneous. Some of the
residents are very much opposed to again build'
Ing n school house on that site , preferring
rather to have a monument erected there In
memory of the victims. Others propose that
another school house bo built , and that within
It there be placed u tablet bearing a record of
the awful calamity. Last Sunday there worn
at least ten thousand people who visited the
scene , there bclngsucclal trains and hundreds
of carriages.

Not Kvon Decent Smoke.
Council Bluffs folk * are the most patient on
eartn. Otherwise they would not endure for
twenty-four hours the cloud of smoke , or
rather the belching forth of n storm of sooty
flakes from the laundry at the corner of
i'carl street and Sixth avenue. The sooty
flakes are so thick as to cause residents in
that vicinity to shut up their houses , while
those who choose to got air at any cost rather
than smother have the pleasure of seeing
their carpets and furaituro ruined. Ordinary
smoke Is bad enough , but the stuff th at pours
from the stacks of this laundry isn't even
decent smoko. If the city has any organiza
tion hiving the ] disposition and the power to
put a stop to such a nuisance It ought to turn
Its energies In that direction. It Is said that
the laundry folks at some times in the near
future arc to provide a mnolco consumer ,
or something to modify the cause of coin-
plaint. Those who have to suffer with the
present nuisance would 1)3 greatly gr.itllied
if the concern would take a vacation until its
apparatus does get hero and it is prepared to
do business in such a way as not to call for so
great a sacrifice on the part of those who are
foolish enough to supposes that they have
some rights which oven smokestacks are
bound to respect.

In San Salvador. General Mcncndoz , who
during my absence usurped my power , is

deavored to oppose the popular upheaval

otic soldier nnd statesman , who has the

have been Invited to return immediately to
my country , Those are facts. There seems
some diversity of opinion as to the manner In
which General Mencndez met his death , and
unfortunately on this point my information is
not quite clear. Of ouo thing only , however ,
I am certain , and that is his death was sub
sequent and did not .precede the revolution
which , by the way , did not come In the
least us a surprise to those who had been fol
lowing closely the course of events
In San Salvador. Since February last
the whole country , disgusted with
Mencndez' arbitrary and despotic rule , has
been in a state of ferment anil excitement ,
during which ho had shot moro than two
hundred political opponents. The beginning
of the end came about two months ago , when
ho probably saw his game was up. I do not
believe the story printed of his death from
apoplexy while presiding over a banquet
given to celebrate the anniversary of my exile
from power. I think this story must bo the
invention of some believer in poetic justice
in my dispatches. I believe that , seeing his
course was run , he cither committed suicide
or along with General Marzlal , in endeavor
ing to withstand the popular reaction nnd in
dignation with his regime , was killed.
THE LOTTEItr ASIEXltMEST.
The Importance of the Victory Cannot
Ito Overestimated.
BATON Rounc , La. , June 20. [ Special Tele
gram to Tin : BKI : . ] The importance of the
victory gained by the lottery yesterday in the
house cannot bo overestimated. A confer
ence of antls was held this morning. Gov
ernor Nichols was present. Senator Gen
eral Montgomery made a proposition to ac
cept the offer of the compromise made
by the prosecution some thi3's ago.
It is to submit the lottery question to the
white primaries based' on nn entirely legal
election. If the majority is in favor of the
lottery nil extra session will bo called and
the matter submitted to the people at the gen
eral election in Ib'JJ ' , if the legislature so de
cides. The tiino suggested for the holding
of the primaries is in April or May of next
year and for the calling of the extra session
thirty or forty days thereafter.
At the white democratic primaries , under
the terms of this proposition , the voters shall
vote upon : First , for or against the lottery
amendment ; second , for or against the call
ing of an extra so3sioufor , the purpose of con
sidering the amendment. This primary elec
tion shall be held under the law jmsed at the
session of the legislature legalizing white
primaries and throwing around them all the
safeguards necessary for obtaining an honest
expression of the sentiment of the people.
Governor Nichols says he is always willing
to abide by what white democrats of the state
shall say.
Mr. Morris , when questioned on the
subject , said that the simplest solution
of the question will bo to pass the lottery bill
at this session nnd to pass also the election
law for white primaries , as suggested , and ho
is willing to give his guarantee in writing to
accept the decision of the whlto primaries , and
agrees to give up his proposition If ivjeetod
by the white people ; and this method obvi
ates the necessity and expense of the extra
session.
Chairman O'Sullivan ' has called a caucus
for tonight to consider the compromise. The
lottery amendment was sent to the senate
today and an effort made to suspend the rules
lor reference to the committee , but objection
being made the mutter goes over.
A SiiCQCHiful Trial Trip.
Pim.inn.i'iiiA , Juno20. The official trial
trip of the United States cruiser Philadel
phia , which took place over n measured
course off Long Island , was successful in
every way. She is known to have attained
a speed of over nineteen and one-half knots an
hour. When the distance is determined the fig
ures will bo made greater by from } $
to 1 ' knot. The conditions yesterday were
not very favorable , there being a heavy fog
and a swift tide running , but notwithstand
ing the vessel behaved admirably in till ro-
spccts. According to the figures given above
she has earned a snood premium of over
? 1U,000 ( , and if the estimates are correct she
is considerably faster than the Baltimore.
On her northern two-hour run she made n
trifle over the required 1 ! ) knots. On the
southern trip she made 20 knots an hour al
most to the second.

Ho looked up mid found himself confronted
by Perry Donnldbon , a youth of eighteen , a
resident of the village of Oliplmnt , who has
long been known us a tough boy. Atkinson
was ordered to keep quiet on pain of death.
Donaldson seized the envelope , containing
about ? l,200 , and made his escape into the
woods toward West Virginia. A posse is in

Mad No Other , Alternative.
MvDitiD , June 2J. TJho cabinet was op
posed to declaring officially that the disease
now prevailing in Spain is cholera , but It
had no alternative , lii view of the report of

show two deaths at Guudlu , ouo at Berning-
amln and ouo at Burcherta. Fresh cases are
reported at Jatlsta , Pu bla do Kugat , Bur-
cherta and Eniva , .
Investigation shows that the cholera opl-
tlonile at Puebla do Hugnt had Its origin in
the opening up of the old cemetery in which
the victims of the , epidemic of 18s5 were
buried.

A .TVS K.JI EXTS.
The wonderfully clever war drama , "Shen-
andoah " at ' house
, was played Boyd's opera
again lost night. Against weather about
thirty degrees too hot for indoor amusements ,
nigh school graduating exercises , and many
other counter ottraetlous it drew n fairly
largo and very excellent audience. Of course
the play itself is a powerfully strong drawing
card , but doubtless a largo majority of those
present last night were there more out of
curiosity regarding the company than any
thing else. They wanted to see and
size it up with the combination that
first produced Mr. Howard's great creation
Here. It was quite amusing as well as Inter
esting to hear the expressions of opinion , and
nearly every spectator had something to
offer. "I don't think they are near as good
us the other company , " said u very sweet
faced lady after having intently watched the
performance. "In my opinion they are much
better , " ventured her husband. "At least
they suit mo better. " "What do you know
about acting anyway ! " inquired the wife
rather sharply. She evidently felt
annoyed at having her Judg
ment questioned. "I don't euro
what you say , " she continued. "The old gen
eral Is not half as good ns ho was before. "
This was rather a hard rub on Frank Bur-
licclc , who Is playing General Ilavorhill , mid
shows that the lady hardly admires quiet ,
dlgnilled , Impressive action In the midst of
lerrillc lighting mid violent love-making.
"And what do you think of Henry Miller as
Colonel Korchtvul Wostf Do you think he is
as good as Frank Carlisle * I don't , " This to
the writer. "Thero's hardly any difference
between them. Carlyslo looked nnd acted
the part magnificently. So does Miller.
Should you select three judges to award a
medal , however. It would probably bo given
U ) Miller. " "What makes you think sof"
"Well , his methods are somewhat different ;
not quito so much on the melodramatic order ,
and altogether just a little moro pleasing.
lie seems to have finer appreciation of the
character and throws deeper expression into
Lho sentiment. " "O , you men uro bound to
: invo everything your own way ; so what's
: ho use of mo wasting my breath ? " Never
theless , this .fair critio lluullv made up her
mind that ns u whole the present company Is
i few shades ahead of the one that was here
list March. Some allowance had to bo made
for the llstles'i condition of everybody on ac
count of the heat. Owing to the severe 111-
less of Miss Odette Tyler , her part , that of
. < ortrude Elllnghnm , had to bo taken by Miss
Dorothy Dorr , who regularly plays Miss
Constance Huvchill. Miss IKatherfno Gray
was her substitute in that role. But to the
ludlenco this change was not perceptible.
SIlss Dorr was greatly admired. No one
could guess that she had not been
( laying the part all her life.

An Kloctrloal Whirlwind.
Mr. Charles F. Hu'for'y farm on the
Montlcollo road , about four miles from
Columbia , S , C. , was recently the scene
of rather u reinarkiiblo occurrence.
One afternoon Mr. linker's attention
was attracted by several loud reports ,
which lie likens to the dtaclmrgo of it
pun , at the etlyo of some woods border
ing Ids cotton Hold. Immediately a
whirling column of dust and debris was
seen to take n circular course from the
woods through the cotton Hold and back
to the woods again , swooping aloft
everything in its path.
< \ negro man employed In the Hold lied
for his life , but caught enough of the
force of the whirlwind to blister his
buck , HO ho said.
On examination it was found that all
along the track of the whirling column
the leaves of the cotton had been
scorched as if by lire , but no other dam
age was done.
The reporter who visited Mr. Hoofer's
place to verify the report , found , besides
the fuels above sot forth , as nourishing
and well attended plantation , possibly ,
us can bo found in this country. Fields
well tilled , tools and implements prop
erly eared for , fences and gates were
sneh as ought to bo , and a vegetable
garden with roisting-ears : ready to
pluck , beets to pull , and oilier things too
numerous to mention , wore among the
points which caught the scribe's eye.

The funeral of Eloise, the ten-year-old daughter of S. S. Nichols, Junior of the Masonic temple, took place at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, Rev. T. J. Mackey officiating.
Mr. Gray (J. Hutton of Omaha) entertained a party of forty couples at Manawa last evening. Supper was served at the hotel.
The Omaha citizens are beginning to appreciate the lake.
All Saints' Church will meet in regular session Friday afternoon, June 27, at the residence of Mrs. James Connolly, on Eighth Avenue, between Sixteenth and Seventeenth Streets.
Mrs. John Downs died yesterday at the Bellinger hospital on Lower Broadway, aged thirty-two years. The remains were sent to Denver last evening over the Burlington for interment.
Marriage licenses were issued yesterday to A. E. Maxwell and Lena Stabb, and to Union Keller and Thora Kapperson, all of this city.
Miss Kapperson arrived here from Sweden only three days ago.
The ladies of All Saints' chapel have purchased the house and lot at No. 31 Twenty-first Street, for a rectory, and the rector, Rev. Charles S. Helm, has been duly installed there with his family.
Shorty O'Neill, the diminutive being who has officiated as janitor about the police station, patrol house, and city building for the past fifteen days, while serving out a sentence, was released Wednesday evening, but proceeded to celebrate in such a vociferous manner that his liberty did not last long, and he was again locked up.
The Lodge Light Guards' party at Manawa last evening was a great success. There were about seventy-five couples in attendance, and the boys netted nearly $30 for the company fund. Dancing, boating, and refreshments were the order of the evening.
It is safe to say that these lake parties will soon be very popular, and it is right that they should be.
Dan Ferguson, the park policeman stationed at Big Lake park, has shut down on fishing in the lake, and yesterday evening discovered John Sterling engaged in fishing there by wholesale. The policeman appropriated the net and turned it over to the park commissioners. Sterling was allowed to go, but will be vigorously prosecuted if again caught seining or otherwise illegally fishing.
Judge Metcalf discharged five vigs yesterday morning, and fined A. H. Darnell and W. H. Henry $11 and $5 respectively for disturbing the peace and using obscene language in the presence of ladies. Henry also insulted Officer Wageck when the latter arrested him, and the Judge held that this in itself merited a fine of $15 and costs. John Koch will likewise be required to contribute $15.10 for disturbing the peace before he can regain his freedom.
The concert by the boy choir of St. Paul's church at Masonic temple last evening was attended by a good-sized audience and nearly enough money was netted to take the boys on their proposed summer outing trip to Spirit Lake. The singing of Mrs. Stella Hevey Loomis was greatly enjoyed. Mrs. Loomis is the latest addition to the musical circles of the city and will be a very popular one. The program was a meritorious one and was excellently rendered.
Owing to numerous other attractions in the city last evening, there was a small audience in the Young Men's Christian association rooms last evening to hear the lecture of Mr. Fred Loomis on "The Growth of Culture." The lecture was very interesting and was thoroughly appreciated by those present. The lecture was illustrated by stereopticon views thrown upon a screen by Mr. C. H. Judson. After the lecture, ice cream was served. A sizable sum was netted for the Young Men's Christian association and the Baptist church.
Work was commenced yesterday cleaning out the waterworks reservoir at the head of Glen Avenue. The gate into the sewer was opened, and the reservoir will be emptied by tonight. It was deemed unwise to throw the gate wide open for fear that the sewer would not be able to carry all the water and would overflow. The sides of the reservoir were not found to be in an unusually bad condition, there being simply a deposit of about half an inch of pulverized kaolin, which was readily washed down with a hose. During the next day or two, water will be furnished directly from the pumping station.

At a meeting of Chapter II, P.E.O., which was held Thursday, June 19, 1890, the following was presented, ordered spread upon the records, and the secretary instructed to send copies of the same to the sorrowing family, and to have the same published in the P.E.O. Record:
In death we mourn the loss of another sister, Clotilda Olson Evans, called from earthly ties to her home above; and we, as a society, wish to express our heartfelt sorrow for our loss, and sympathy for the bereaved ones. Mrs. Evans was an active member since the establishment of Council Bluffs P.E.O.
Austro, organizing, ever ready and willing to lend a helpful hand, full of humanity and hope; she took pleasure in imparting some of the misfortunes of her own life, and was a devoted wife, loving daughter, and sister, and a true friend, whom we mourn; the loss that cannot be replaced, whose worth was exemplified in death.
We miss her familiar face, we sorrow for those personally bereaved, and wonder why one so dear, so near, so faithful, and true, why one so unbearable to affection should be thus suddenly removed from our midst; and only can we fully console ourselves with the thought that though here on earth our joy is short, there is joy in heaven. In our greatest trial a voice from above says "Write," but with eyes dimmed with the/start of the world this is often invisible, until the heat from the furnace of affliction unfolds the food of the soul and distinct, then with what do we read of "a reverent trust in whose realm no grief shall ever reach the heart and never shall a tender thought be broken," and of a hereafter where there shall be neither sorrow nor sighing, only a bright eternal existence.

Another barbaric case was tried yesterday before Judge McCee. It was the outcome of the fight between Fritz Bernhardt and the other barbers of the city to see whether Sunday shaving may continue in peace and quiet or must be relegated to tonsorial holes in the wall, or dished up in original packages. Fritz came out on top, and for a while at least Sunday shaving will flourish like a green bay tree. As long as that lasts, commercial tourists and others who desire to enjoy their day of rest in the shady parks and beautiful glens of the Bluffs will not be compelled to cross the river in order to have their chins polished or their whiskers pruned.
Commett Tinley appeared for the barbers' association and Colonel W. V. App was on hand to see that the defendant had fair play. It will be remembered that Bernhardt was acquitted by a jury in Justice Schuiv's court on Tuesday of the same charge, at which time the prosecuting witness was Constable Covalt. Yesterday morning Attorney Tinley attempted to show that Covalt had not acted in good faith, and been unduly influenced in his selection of a jury. All of the jurors were subpoenaed as witnesses, but were not placed upon the stand, as the question hinged upon a legal point. Covalt was examined to some length, and there were several lively verbal set-tos between him and the cross-examining attorney, Mr. Finley, which provoked more or less merriment. There were also several tilts between opposing counsel, and on two or three occasions the judge and Colonel App engaged in brief and spirited controversies. After hearing the evidence, the judge held that the case in Justice Schuiv's court settled the matter, inasmuch as the proceedings had been properly conducted, which was virtually another acquittal for Bernhardt. It was ordered, however, that the case go to the district court, and that until the case is decided there, Bernhardt will be allowed to shave on Sundays unmolested. The attorney for the defense insisted that the case against Bernhardt also covered those against his three workmen, who were also arrested, but the judge would not have it that way, and they will be tried later.

The Fountain.
The work of placing the new Bayliss park fountain in position is progressing satisfactorily, and attracts hundreds of spectators. Commissioner Percey's "ad" in yesterday's paper for more bosses laid the dispute to rest, as he had over one thousand applications before noon. The fountain will be entirely put together by tomorrow night, and it is possible that all the plumbing and water connections will also be made by that time. It is intended to have the fountain in operation Sunday if possible. It has been suggested that it would be very appropriate to have the opening of some kind when the fountain is completed, even if it is no more than the opening of an original package. The park commissioners take very kindly to the idea, and it is very probable that they will conclude to have a band concert, speeches, etc., in the park on the evening that the fountain is put in operation.
As the work progresses, and the design becomes more apparent, the beauty of the fountain is increased, and public satisfaction intensifies accordingly.
It is conceded by all that there is nothing handsomer in this part of the country, and the J. L. Mott iron works of New York have reason to be proud of the first sample of their work sent into this part of the country.
It is not yet decided whether or not to light the fountain with incandescent lights this year, but it is the generally expressed wish that the work shall not now be left half done after such an auspicious beginning has been made. All that is necessary to give the final touch to the foundation is the incandescent lighting. This light in colored glass would give a beautiful effect, and it is hoped that the arrangements already partially completed for putting it in will not be allowed to drop.
The sentiment of many who visited the park yesterday was expressed by one heavy taxpayer who declared, "I can now see plainly where our park levy is expended, and I believe that I can see my two-mill tax right here. I don't suppose that this is all of it, in fact, I know that it isn't half of it, yet I would be satisfied if it was the whole, for I can get more than that amount of satisfaction looking at this fountain. It is a beautiful thing, and will be as great an attraction to strangers as it will be to our own citizens. I believe in keeping the public improvements abreast, if not ahead of the city, and the park commissioners have done that in this respect. They have done a big thing and they should be given credit for it."
The fountain proper weighs a little over eight tons, and will cost, including the basin and setting, nearly $8,000.

Happily Wedded.
A very pretty wedding and thoroughly happy event as well was that of Mr. Richard Oglesby Wells of St. Louis and Miss Ivahllle Pearl Hatchett, at the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Hatchett, No. 506 Seventh avenue, yesterday afternoon. The ceremony was performed by Rev. T. J. Mackay of St. Paul's church, the services being in accordance with the Episcopal ritual. There were present a large number of invited guests, among them Mr. and Mrs. James M. Wells of Creston, parents of the groom. The parlors where the ceremony was performed were perfect floral bowers. Miss Nellie Schumann played the wedding march in a very artistic and pleasing manner. At the conclusion of the ceremony, the newly wedded couple, relatives, and invited guests sat down to an elaborate wedding dinner. The groom is well known here, having been for some time a clerk in the local oil department of the Burlington, and now holds a responsible position with the Omaha & St. Louis railway company. The bride is a reigning favorite in Council Bluffs society, and she will be greatly missed in social circles here. The presents given the bride were costly, numerous, and unique in design.
The happy couple, accompanied by the parents of the groom, left last evening for Creston, where they will visit for a few days before going east on an extended wedding trip. The hearty congratulations of many friends and best wishes for future happiness and prosperity are theirs.

Here is some more on the Cyclone.
Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Fonda returned yesterday from the scene of the cyclone in Paw Paw, Ill. Their school was one of the scholars killed in the schoolhouse. Mr. Fonda says the calamity cannot be described, and the attempts of the reporters have been attended by many inaccuracies of statement. For instance, some of the papers have stated that of the seven who were killed in the schoolhouse, the nearest body was picked up a field or more away. The fact is that the one farthest from the schoolhouse was not more than twenty rods away, the others being much nearer. The teacher and the children were stripped of nearly every bit of clothing, the terrible whirl of the wind tearing their garments away from them. Their death must have been almost instantaneous. Some of the residents are very much opposed to again building a schoolhouse on that site, preferring rather to have a monument erected there in memory of the victims. Others propose that another schoolhouse be built, and that within it there be placed a tablet bearing a record of the awful calamity. Last Sunday there were at least ten thousand people who visited the scene, there being special trains and hundreds of carriages.

"The Famous," 200 Broadway. Not Even Decent Smoke.
Council Bluffs folk are the most patient on earth. Otherwise, they would not endure for twenty-four hours the cloud of smoke, or rather the belching forth of a storm of sooty flakes from the laundry at the corner of Pearl street and Sixth avenue. The sooty flakes are so thick as to cause residents in that vicinity to shut up their houses, while those who choose to get air at any cost rather than smother have the pleasure of seeing their carpets and furniture ruined. Ordinary smoke is bad enough, but the stuff that pours from the stacks of this laundry isn't even decent smoke. If the city has any organization having the disposition and the power to put a stop to such a nuisance, it ought to turn its energies in that direction. It is said that the laundry folks at some times in the near future are to provide a mosquito consumer, or something to modify the cause of complaint. Those who have to suffer with the present nuisance would be greatly gratified if the concern would take a vacation until its apparatus does get here and it is prepared to do business in such a way as not to call for so great a sacrifice on the part of those who are foolish enough to suppose that they have some rights which even smokestacks are bound to respect.

Prostrated by the heat.
Several cases of persons who have been severely affected by the heat have been reported, but no fatal cases of sunstroke have yet occurred. Officer Doyle was obliged to leave his beat Wednesday and was taken home from police headquarters on a stretcher. His condition is not regarded as critical, but he will be unable to resume work for several days.
Mary Harney, a servant girl employed in the household of Gov. B. P. McMenomy, was also prostrated, and for a while her condition was critical, but she is now recovering.
The Council Bluffs Carpet company are selling goods at hot weather prices. There is nothing plainer, cooler, or better than their new Japanese matting for summer use.

Home Fun.
A rich treat of local minstrelsy is promised at Hughes' hall this evening. A sparkling overture is prepared, in which E. M. Thornton, James Mulqueen and others take part. In the opus there will be acrobatic specialties by John Kirkland and Bob Doyle, song and dance by Tommy Keating, and a few Teutonic ticklers by Ed F. Cody. The entertainment will close with the rollicking musical farce, "Mr. Mikado, or Japanese from Manawa."

From now until July 1st, we are going to knock all previous attempts at low prices. We will guarantee to sell you goods cheaper than you ever bought the same quality or your money returned. Best quality India chintzes at 5 and 6 cents yard. Good sateens at 8, 10 and 12½ cents yard; the quality cannot be duplicated in the city at the price. All of our fancy dress buttons at just half the price. Just think of it. Where can you get such bargains? Only at Cully's. We will sell you yard wide sheeting at 6 cents yard that is better than Lawrence L. L. Good yard wide bleached muslin at 8 cents, worth 9. Good dress ginghams at 11½ cents yard, worth 5. We will save you money on all white goods, lace houssings, gloves, mitts, hose, corsets, fans and parasols. Baby caps at your own price; we have too many. If you should happen to want a line wool dress, we will save you at least 35 percent. If you are after bargains, we are bound to get your trade. Ladies' imported hem-stitched handkerchiefs at 6 cents, worth 10c. Heats' imported hem-stitched handkerchiefs at 10c, it for 5 cents, that are worth just double. This is pretty large talk; call and see the goods and satisfy yourselves. We give a handsome present with each and every cash purchase to the amount of $1.

National Editorial Association.
BOSTON, Mass., June 20. At the session of the National Editorial association today, Chairman Parker of the committees on advertising made a report on a schedule of uniform advertising rates running per inch from 75 cents per week to $10 per year and per column from $10 per week to $100 per year.
Bettie of Arkansas reported favorably upon the proposition for affiliation with the American Newspaper Publishers' association for associate membership, having agreed upon terms for all weekly papers connected with the National Editorial association of $1 yearly; for papers published oftener in towns of 10,000 population $10, and in towns of 10,000 and 15,000 population $15. The report was accepted.

In light of the historian George Bancroft's health condition, which makes it difficult for him to indulge in his favorite recreation, horseback riding, this year he has not been able to ride out in his carriage. The condition of his health is such that probably he will be seen on the streets but little if at all. He becomes more feeble and remains more closely at home, avoiding all excitement.
Cornell University has scored a victory today by defeating the University of Pennsylvania crew by six lengths over a three-mile course in the fast time of 14:52. The Pennsylvania's time was 16:23. The fast time was largely due to the fact that a strong ebb was running with the crews.

Dr. Faust has been invited to return immediately to his country, which has been burdensome due to the turbulent nature of Salvador. As a New York Herald correspondent congratulates his excellency on looking twenty years younger than when he went to exile, he pointed to a stack of dispatches upon his desk and said: "Good news; from home has made me young again. I am glad to make the good news known to the world through the Herald, which is so much read and respected in our countries, and, unlike the majority of North American dailies, always deals with our political changes with such profound savoir-faire and disinterestedness." A resolution, marked by us little bloodshed as possible, has taken place in San Salvador. General Mencndez, who during my absence usurped my power, is dead; his partisan, General Mariscal, who endeavored to oppose the popular upheaval with an armed force, has been killed and his men routed; General Carlos Sota, a patriotic soldier and statesman, who has the good wishes of all friends of the republic, has been proclaimed president of the provisional government, a general amnesty has been declared and I have been invited to return immediately to my country. Those are facts. There seems some diversity of opinion as to the manner in which General Mencndez met his death, and unfortunately on this point my information is not quite clear. Of one thing only, however, I am certain, and that is his death was subsequent and did not precede the revolution which, by the way, did not come in the least as a surprise to those who had been following closely the course of events in San Salvador. Since February last the whole country, disgusted with Mencndez's arbitrary and despotic rule, has been in a state of ferment and excitement, during which he had shot more than two hundred political opponents. The beginning of the end came about two months ago, when he probably saw his game was up. I do not believe the story printed of his death from apoplexy while presiding over a banquet given to celebrate the anniversary of my exile from power. I think this story must be the invention of some believer in poetic justice in my dispatches. I believe that, seeing his course was run, he either committed suicide or, along with General Mariscal, in endeavoring to withstand the popular reaction and indignation with his regime, was killed.
The importance of the victory gained by the lottery yesterday in the house cannot be overestimated. A conference of ants was held this morning. Governor Nichols was present. Senator General Montgomery made a proposition to accept the offer of the compromise made by the prosecution some time ago. It is to submit the lottery question to the white primaries based on an entirely legal election. If the majority is in favor of the lottery, all extra session will be called and the matter submitted to the people at the general election in 1892, if the legislature so decides. The time suggested for the holding of the primaries is in April or May of next year and for the calling of the extra session thirty or forty days thereafter.
At the white democratic primaries, under the terms of this proposition, the voters shall vote upon: First, for or against the lottery amendment; second, for or against the calling of an extra session for, the purpose of considering the amendment. This primary election shall be held under the law passed at the session of the legislature legalizing white primaries and throwing around them all the safeguards necessary for obtaining an honest expression of the sentiment of the people. Governor Nichols says he is always willing to abide by what white democrats of the state shall say.
Mr. Morris, when questioned on the subject, said that the simplest solution of the question will be to pass the lottery bill at this session and to pass also the election law for white primaries, as suggested, and he is willing to give his guarantee in writing to accept the decision of the white primaries, and agrees to give up his proposition if rejected by the white people; and this method obviates the necessity and expense of the extra session.
Chairman O'Sullivan has called a caucus for tonight to consider the compromise. The lottery amendment was sent to the senate today and an effort was made to suspend the rules for reference to the committee, but objection being made the matter goes over.
The official trial trip of the United States cruiser Philadelphia, which took place over a measured course off Long Island, was successful in every way. She is known to have attained a speed of over nineteen and one-half knots an hour. When the distance is determined, the figures will be made greater by from 1 to 2 knots. The conditions yesterday were not very favorable, there being a heavy fog and a swift tide running, but notwithstanding the vessel behaved admirably in all respects. According to the figures given above, she has earned a good premium of over $10,000, and if the estimates are correct, she is considerably faster than the Baltimore. On her northern two-hour run, she made a trifle over the required 16 knots. On the southern trip, she made 20 knots an hour almost to the second.
A daring robbery was perpetrated today at a little mining town near Uniontown, Pa. Jacob Atkinson, paymaster for the Frick coke company, was placing the salaries of the men in envelopes when he was startle by an order to throw up his hands. He looked up and found himself confronted by Perry Donaldson, a youth of eighteen, a resident of the village of Oliphant, who has long been known as a tough boy. Atkinson was ordered to keep quiet on pain of death. Donaldson seized the envelope, containing about $1,200, and made his escape into the woods toward West Virginia. A posse is in pursuit.
Madam, No Other Alternative.
June 20. The cabinet was opposed to declaring officially that the disease now prevailing in Spain is cholera, but it had no alternative, in view of the report of the sanitary commission. Today's reports show two deaths at Granada, one at Burgos and one at Burcheta. Fresh cases are reported at Jalostotitlan, Puente de Euga, Burcheta and Eniva.
Investigation shows that the cholera outbreak at Puente de Euga had its origin in the opening up of the old cemetery in which the victims of the epidemic of 1855 were buried.
What the Turners Object To.
New York, June 20. The portions of the platform objected to by the North American Turners are those recommending that all further land grants and sales to individuals or corporations, compulsory education, the introduction of German instruction in common schools, the abolition of all direct taxation, opposition to Sunday laws, etc. The socialists say the Central Verein is composed almost entirely of capitalists, hence the dissatisfaction. They claim they will not withdraw.
A Tolitionists Driven Bank.
CITY OF MEXICO, June 20. Monterey telegrams say the revolutionists under General Andrade attempted to cross the Rio Grande yesterday from the United States six miles west of Laredo, but were driven back by the Mexican forces. Andrade and six men were captured by the chief of police of Laredo.
The Entombed Miners.
DUNBAR, Pa., June 20. The rescuing party this evening found that unless gas pockets are struck, they will be in the Hill Farm mine in the morning and the fate of the unfortunate victims will be known. A gang of men has been out digging a tunnel from the Ferguson mine to the Hill Farm mine, keeping the matter quiet. Today the authorities stopped them until it can be learned if there are gas deposits near the tunnel. They were very close to the Hill Farm mine when stopped.
A Notable Banquet.
Chicago, June 20. Tonight at the Palmer House one of the most notable banquets given in Chicago for a long time was attended by 100 prominent gentlemen, including the world's fair commissioners. The affair was under the auspices of the States association, a body of leading Chicagoans organized to represent the states from which they were former residents. The purpose of the association is to help provide the best facilities possible for exhibitors from each state. The decorations of the banquet hall were of the most elaborate character. Chief Justice Fuller was among the guests present. Addresses were made by John Boyd Thatcher of New York, Mark L. McDonald of California, Charles H. Jones of Missouri, Henry Exal of Texas, and others. They discussed the world's fair in all its manifold relations. Thomas B. Bryan of Chicago, a member of the local directory, announced that the resolution of the board favoring the lake front was adopted under conditions which had been found impossible of fulfillment. The directors now concur in deeming the lake front site us impracticable.
A letter was read from President Harrison expressing deep interest in the success of the exposition.
Spider Kelly Wins Another Fight.
CINTIPOHT, L.I., June 20. An enthusiastic crowd witnessed a fight tonight between "Spider" Kelly of Harlem and Benny Murphy of England. Kelly is the man who defeated "Chappy" Moran of England. The men entered the ring at about 10 pounds each. They fought with two ounce gloves. Murphy wasn't in it. Kelly forced the lighting from the start and in the third round knocked Murphy down as often as he could rise until he was unable to respond any more.

American Society of Civil Engineers Meeting.
Cincinnati, Ohio, June 20. The American Society of Civil Engineers met in annual session here today with nearly two hundred delegates present, representing nearly every state and territory. The morning session was taken up in perfecting the organization.
Discontented Athlson Employers.
Kansas City, June 20. Officials of the Order of Railway Conductors and Brotherhood of Trainmen are conferring here with the grievance committee of the Athlson road. There is considerable dissatisfaction on the Athlson over the new scale of wages.
Republican Convention.
CINCINNATI, O., June 20. The republicans of the Eighth district today nominated Joseph T. Taylor for congress. In the Twelfth, Grosvenor, Thompson, and Enochs are up and several ballots were taken without effect.
Two Boys Instantly Killed.
WHITING, W. Va., June 20. Two boys sitting on the railroad track near Galloway tonight were struck by a Baltimore & Ohio train and instantly killed. They failed to heed the warning of the engineer.
June 20. Erzurum is reported to be in full revolt. In the conflicts, eighty Armenians and nine Turkish soldiers were killed and many wounded.
An Unfounded Rumor.
PARIS, June 20. It was reported here today that cholera had made its appearance in different parts of France, but the rumor appears unfounded.
Executions.
June 20. Executions amounting to $11,000 were issued today against John J. Glazier Bros. & Co., manufacturers of hosiery.
A TWENTIETH CENTURY EXTRAVAGANZA.
The wonderfully clever war drama, "Shenandoah" at Boyd's opera house, was played again last night. Against weather about thirty degrees too hot for indoor amusements, high school graduating exercises, and many other counter attractions, it drew a fairly large and very excellent audience. Of course, the play itself is a powerfully strong drawing card, but doubtless a large majority of those present last night were there more out of curiosity regarding the company than anything else. They wanted to see and size up with the combination that first produced Mr. Howard's great creation here. It was quite amusing as well as interesting to hear the expressions of opinion, and nearly every spectator had something to offer. "I don't think they are nearly as good as the other company," said a very sweet-faced lady after having intently watched the performance. "In my opinion, they are much better," ventured her husband. "At least, they suit me better." "What do you know about acting anyway!" inquired the wife rather sharply. She evidently felt annoyed at having her judgment questioned. "I don't care what you say," she continued, "the old general is not half as good as he was before." This was rather a hard rub on Frank Burleigh, who is playing General Haverhill, and shows that the lady hardly admires quiet, dignified, impressive action in the midst of Burleigh's fighting and violent love-making.
"And what do you think of Henry Miller as Colonel Forchtveldt West? Do you think he is as good as Frank Carlisle?" "I don't," This to the writer. "There's hardly any difference between them. Carlisle looked and acted the part magnificently. So does Miller. Should you select three judges to award a medal, however, it would probably be given to Miller." "What makes you think so?" "Well, his methods are somewhat different; not quite so much on the melodramatic order, and altogether just a little more pleasing. He seems to have finer appreciation of the character and throws deeper expression into the sentiment." "Oh, you men are bound to find everything your own way; so what's the use of me wasting my breath?" Nevertheless, this fair critic had made up her mind that as a whole, the present company is a few shades ahead of the one that was here last March. Some allowance had to be made for the general condition of everyone on account of the heat. Owing to the severe illness of Miss Odette Tyler, her part, that of Corinne Ellingham, had to be taken by Miss Dorothy Dorr, who regularly plays Miss Constance Hunchill. Miss Katherine Gray was her substitute in that role. But to the audience, this change was not perceptible.
Sirs Dorr was greatly admired. No one
could guess that she had not been
playing the part all her life.
Miss Joe Tutlo as Madeline West,
Miss Annette Camstock as Jennie Buckhorn,
A. E. Lehman as Captain Hartease,
Hurley Harwood as General Buckthorn,
James O. Barrows as Sergeant Barket,
and all the others were equally good. The play
was beautifully staged, especially the scene
presenting Shenandoah Valley.

They Love Their Little Halo to Die
The body of a little girl babe is lying at the
morgue this morning and the chances are
that it will occupy a nameless grave,
Six weeks ago a young couple went to board
with Mrs. Collier at 1517 North Twenty-fourth
Street, and two weeks later a babe was born.
The child-mother, for she was such, being
only fifteen years of age, neglected the little
thing, and two weeks ago, under the pretense
of going to Council Bluffs to visit friends for
a day, the couple departed, the babe being
left with Mrs. Collier. Since that time neither the father
nor the mother have been seen. Last Saturday night the little thing,
decam-stele and yesterday morning it died.
The body was turned over to the county.
While at Mrs. Polfer's the young people
gave the names of Mr. and Mrs. Gus
Dow, practiced in the treatment of 100 mill throat. Big show.
No Chalk in this Milk.
Naples' letter: A farmer next peas
by, not with rattling curt and home
trained to stop in the place at the
stam hour, but with his cow, or COW,
it's the term any be, lot by a rope,
while with his other hand he rings
a bell to
begin his approach to his client's,
who come out with their pint or quart
cups and wait while the desired amount
is milked into them, when the cows stand
their owner moves on to the next house
where they are due. This is a novel
way of farming; milk, but one in which
there can be no cheating or watering of
the land.
A Fact About.
Foolscap is a corruption of the Italian
folio-capo, a folio-sized sheet, says the
Dry Goods Chronicle. The error must
have been very ancient, as the watermark of this sort of paper from the
thirteenth to the seventeenth century was
a fool's head with cap and tallow.
An Electrical Whirlwind.
Mr. Charles F. Hufor's farm on the
Montcollo road, about four miles from
Columbia, S.C., was recently the scene
of rather a remarkable occurrence.
One afternoon Mr. Hufor's attention
was attracted by several loud reports,
which he likens to the discharging of it
pump, at the exit of some woods bordering
his cotton field. Immediately a
whirling column of dust and debris was
seen to take a circular course from the
woods through the cotton field and back
to the woods again, swooping aloft
everything in its path.
A negro man employed in the field
fled for his life, but caught enough of the
force of the whirlwind to blister his
back, so he said.
On examination it was found that all
along the track of the whirling column
the leaves of the cotton had been
scorched as if by fire, but no other damage was done.
The reporter who visited Mr. Hufor's
place to verify the report, found, besides
the facts above set forth, as nourishing
and well-attended plantation, possibly,
as can be found in this country. Fields
well tilled, tools and implements properly
cared for, fences and gates were
such as ought to be, and a vegetable
garden with roasting-ears: ready to
pluck, beets to pull, and other things too
numerous to mention, were among the
points which caught the scribe's eye.

IMiyslolnit llooointnomle'tl It.
The Ixmdon World Una boon mnkliiR an In
ve-sllgnUon of whnt thoquccti drinks niut luis
n corlnlncd eloflultcly that , upon thondvleo o
Sir William Jonur , slio ilrlnks whiskey diluted
In water. Tills it for the ptirposo of retaining
her vigor , renewing licr strength nnd prolong"
Intf lierllfo. The whlskny which slio drinks Is
obtained from the distillery on licr own llnl-
mornl estate , niul of coursn Is perfectly pure.
Thus the World offers n vnldnhlo suggestion
In tills fact ! England's Sovereign el rinks wills-
key under the recommendation of tliu court
physician ntid on nccount of Its medicinal
properties , and she drinks It absolutely pure
having It distilled upon her own estate. These
facts provo two things : First , that till niodorn
mmllcnl selenco demonstrates tlin superior
value of whiskey for sustaining the health
and prolonging the Ilfo ; mid second , that It
must ho absolutely pun * . The lending Ainor-
lo.in physicians mid chemists luivo endorsed
these views constantly uud emphasized the
necessity of whiskey that It la absolutely pure.
The host inrdlual nnd chemical talent In
America has shown conclusively that no whls-
key known In the market Is so pure as Duffy's
Mnlt. It Is wholly free from fusel oil. It Is un-
llko all other so-called whLsklc.s , nnd It Is
lining grout things fnr the health of the com
munity. Ho tiuu Is thli , that while ! many
prohibition people denounce whiskies niul
liquors In general , they ucl.nowlodgo the sit-
purlor moillof DulTy's JIalt , and nso II. medl-

A SlooiiltiR Klc.tlnn Woninii Mxtilrcs by
Her lIiislmnd'H Hlttc.
The wife of Senor ( totizale i proinln-
ontoltlzun of this plia'i' , wnd found
dend ( n her bctl onu inornlni ; . nuys Moil-
leroy ( Mox.jHpoclnl to the I'itlhtilulpliia
Tlini's , witli n Inr o but of llio vnmttlfu
variety fas toned in her hair. She had
boon sleeping1 by an open window , and
the civntui'o had Mown In , and ovlilontly
killed her by siioklnff her blood , for two
tiny wounds nit her nook eloso to the
jugular vein Indicate the place It had
punctured. Its escape had been pre
vented , though , by the hair of the )
victim , which was very lonjj and abund
ant , and had so entangled the Vamplro
In its inches as to hold It until it could
bo killed. The death of Sonora Gon-
mles is much ru retted in the coin-
inunlty , as she wim a lady of amiable )
and benevolent eharactua , as wall na
noted for her beauty.
The death inlliotcd by these bats
is a very peaceful one , for while
draining the blood they keep up
a continuous gentle fanninp ; of their
wings , which coothcs and lulls
the sleeper until his slumbers glldo im-
prccoptibly intootoral rest. Senor Gon-
nales , who was asleep by his wife's sldo ,
Buys lie was lirst awkencd by the bat's
frantic endeavor to free itself from its
net of hair , and that ho killed the
gorged and imprisoned creature with
out dlllluulty , and could hcarcoly believe
that his wlfo was dead , so placidly and
naturally did Bho seem to sloop.

His I'apor Was Head liy HoinolKnIy.
Years ago when ITonry Orady was
btriigtrliiig to bring the Konio Commer
cial Into front ranks , says the Rome
( Ga. ) Tribune , ho called ono dav and
asked the Kounsavillo brothers for an
advertisement. .T. W. Hounsavillo re
plied : "Why , Grady , nobody roads your
paper ; it is of no use to advertise It It. "
A happy thought suggested itself to Mr.
Grady. Up went to his olllco and wrote
the following advertisement , which ap
peared next morning in the Commercial :
"Wanted , fifty cats. Liberal price for
the same. Apply lo Kounsavillo Bros. "
Well , the picture that presented itself
at Ronnsaville's corner next morning
beggars description. Boys of all ages
and sizes boys of all tints , from the fair-
haired youth to the sable Ethiopian
bare-foot boys and ragged boys red
headed boys , freckled-faced boys town
boys and country boys boys from all
parts of Floyd county , blocked up the
sidewalk , doorways and street witll bnga
full of cats cats of every description ,
name and order house cats , yard cats
barn cats , church cats fat cats and loan
cats honest cats and thievish cats.
Well , to make a long story short , the
Hounsavillo told Mr. Grady to reserve a
column for their advertisement as long
as his paper continued ; and that was just
what Grady wanted.

Ijorlllnrd'H Koiieliieas for the Turf.
It is amusing , bays the Now York
World , to note the wrapt adoration of
PierreLorillnrd for hisoldlovo , the turf.
Once in a while the master of Itancocas
writes a letter to the newspapers pro
testing that ho does not bet more than
MOO on a , race , and doubtlohS this is true ,
lint it should bo remembered that Mr.
Lorillnrd plays what are technically
known as "snort horses. " A "short
lior o" always has a long price and 8500
311 a lo-to-1 horse is apt to produce a
reeling of substantial satisfaction if tjio
liorbo in view succeeds in pushing his
iioso across thu wire lirst. Mr. Lorillard
is nothing if not enthusiastic , and it is
luo to his unquenchable enthusiasm
that ho attained his former great figure
in the racing world. A sudden fondness
[ or yachting , and later on a complete
ibsorption in Tuxedo , cauhod Mr. Loril
lard Homo years ago to lese his faith in
mankind in general and racing in par
ticular. Ho left the turf with as much
precipitancy as ho had gone on it , but it
was impossible for him to keep entirely
iway from his old lovo. lie is the pop-
jlar ideal of a racing man big , breezy ,
liandsome , well dressed , friendly and
jtrlctly reliable. His stable ban always
jcon run on principles of absolute integ
rity. This year Mr. Lorillard has been
in the track morning , noon and night.
Flo talks hor.-io until midnight and is the
Irst man around the following morning.
A good many men have tried to getaway
'rom the fascination of racing , but the
najority of them do not make any
nero of a success than that which has
listinguished Mr. Lorillard's recent
ollorts.

QUEEN VICTORIA
What She Drinks and Why the Court Pays Attention to Booze.
The London World has been making an investigation of what the queen drinks and has concluded that, upon the advice of Sir William Jordon, she drinks whiskey diluted with water. This is for the purpose of retaining her vigor, renewing her strength, and prolonging her life. The whiskey which she drinks is obtained from the distillery on her own country estate, and of course is perfectly pure.
Thus the World offers a valuable suggestion in this fact: England's Sovereign drinks whiskey under the recommendation of the court physician and on account of its medicinal properties, and she drinks it absolutely pure having it distilled upon her own estate. These facts prove two things: First, that the modern science of chemistry demonstrates the superior value of whiskey for sustaining the health and prolonging the life; and second, that it must be absolutely pure. The leading individual and chemical talent in America has shown conclusively that no whiskey known in the market is so pure as Duffy's Malt. It is wholly free from fusel oil. It is unlike all other so-called whiskies, and it is having great things for the health of the community. No other is this, that while many prohibition people denounce whiskies and liquors in general, they acknowledge the superior quality of Duffy's Malt, and use it medicinally continually. Great Chicago should be encouraged, however, to secure no other, the matter being how hard a dealer may seek to sell you something else.

Pierre Lorillard's Relishes for the Turf.
It is amusing, says the New York World, to note the wrapt adoration of Pierre Lorillard for his old love, the turf. Once in a while the master of Rancocas writes a letter to the newspapers protesting that he does not bet more than $600 on a race, and undoubtedly this is true, but it should be remembered that Mr. Lorillard plays what are technically known as "short horses." A "short horse" always has a long price and $850 on a 5-to-1 horse is apt to produce a reeling of substantial satisfaction if the horse in view succeeds in pushing his nose across the wire first. Mr. Lorillard is nothing if not enthusiastic, and it is due to his unquenchable enthusiasm that he attained his former great figure in the racing world. A sudden fondness for yachting, and later on a complete absorption in Tuxedo, caused Mr. Lorillard to leave his faith in mankind in general and racing in particular. He left the turf with as much precipitancy as he had gone on it, but it was impossible for him to keep entirely away from his old love. He is the popular ideal of a racing man: big, breezy, handsome, well-dressed, friendly and strictly reliable. His stable has always been run on principles of absolute integrity. This year Mr. Lorillard has been in the track morning, noon and night. He talks horses until midnight and is the first man around the following morning. A good many men have tried to get away from the fascination of racing, but the majority of them do not make any more of a success than that which has distinguished Mr. Lorillard's recent efforts.

A Matter of Interest to Travelers.
Tourists , emigrants nnd mariners llnd that
Hosteller's ' Stomach Bitters is n medicinal
safeguard against unhe.ilthful influences ,
upon which they can implicitly rely , since it
prevents the cliects that an unhealthy cli
mate , vitiated atmosphere , unaccustomed or
unwholesome diet , bad waler or other condi
tions unfavorable to health , would olhorwlso
produce. On long voyages , or journeys by
land in lattitutes ndjacunt to the equator , it is
especially useful ns n preventive of tlio febrile
complaints mid nil disorders of the stomach ,
liver and bowels , which nro apt to attack na
tives of Iho temperate zones sojourning or
traveling in such regions , and Is an excellent
protection against the Influence of extreme
cold , sudden changes of temperature , expos
ure to damp or extreme fatigue. It not only
prevents intermittent and remittent fever
and other diseases of mal irial tvpc , but erad
icates them , a fact which has been nolorious
for years past in Norlli and South America ,
Mexico , tlio West Indies , Australia nud
other countries. .
M'KIBBIN'S FALSE VOUCHERS.
Mr Rarnci of St. Louis Denies Having
Any Knowledge of Them.
G. H. Barnes , senior member of the lumber
firm at St. Louis , from whom Mr. C. II.
McKibbin , late general purchasing agent of
the Union Pacific purchased lumber ,
denies all knowledge of Mr. Mc-
Kibbin's . alleged false vouchers. Ho
says the statement that he sold lumber to
McKibbin at n higher rale Ihan Iho latter
could secure elsewhere , was incorrect. Ho
said , however , that ho had sold lumber to
McKibbin as cheap ns ho could sell to nny-
ono. As neaily as Mr. Barnes could esti
mate it , his business with the Union Pacific
amounted to about ? 300,000 a year. Ho con
sidered his success in securing such n largo
tr.ulo with this corporation duo more than
anything else to his promptness in delivering
the material.
It has been discovered thnt McKibbin's ex-
pcnso accounts were something enormous.
Piles of vouchers .representing amounts run
ning from $21)0 ) to SoDO were turned in nnd
paid. A gentleman who has had something
to do with making the Investigation , has said
that the 'ex-purchasing agent could easily
have doubled his salary iu this way nnd
probably did.
Tlio KoadH Will
Itwnsnn official of the Burlington who
said that the western roads proposed to make
n hard light against the Interstate commerce
commission's recent order for a reduction of
rates from Missouri river points to Chicago.
Ho declared that they could not slaud n re-
ductlou of Iho tariff , which was 20 cents on
corn from Omaha to Chicago and 15 cenls to
the Mississippi river. The commission thinks
that 17 cents nnd IS cenls would bo about
right. Before it undertakes to enforce Iho
order , however , all roads Interested will bo
given nu opportunity to bo heard , July 8 has
been fixed as the tlmo for Iho hearing. The
presidents held n mecling in Chicago Wednes
day , ut which they decided to resist the rec
ommendation , nnd , if possible , prevent a low
ering of the rate.
Adams AVI11 Ho the Man.
JVhcn GcneVal Traffic Manager Mellon of
the Union Pacific loft for Denver Wednesday
ho said that A. H. Johnson's successor as
freight agent of the Colorado and Now
Mexico divisions would not bo appointed until
ho ( Mr. Mellon ) should reach there. It Is
known , however , that ho had made up his
mind to appoint II. W. Adams , for n long
tlmo general agent of the road at Bntlo City ,
Mont. Mr. Adams commenced his career
with the Union Pacific as n clerk , showed
himself to bo an uncommonly brilliant young
man and has been rapidly promoled.
New Unto to Slouv City.
The Kansas , City , St. Joseph & Council
Bluffs road has announced a noiv rate on
first and second-class freight between Kansas
City and Sioux City that may bo the means
of Inaugurating n small war. It makes n re
duction of 10 coats per hundred on the first
and second classes , fi cunts on Iho third , nnd n
corresponding cut through Iho entire list.
This affects the business of the Missouri
Pacific in only a slight degree , however , and
may cause It to retaliate by decreasing the
iiito between Kansas City and Omuhu.
A Now Static Line Started.
The Fremont , Klkhorn & Missouri Vail oy

tensive stage business July t from its various

General Agent Nush lhat they have encoun
tered another-hitch which may make it Impos
sible for the Mllwu.ukco to commence ruunlng
the passenger trains across the jrlvcr into
Omaha July 1 , The trouble scorns to
bo iu a failure of the temporary

olllco rooin und yard facilities ready by that

A VICTORY OVER MEASLES!
"100 Doses One Dollar" means simply that Hood's Sarsaparilla is the most economical medicine to buy, because it gives more for the money than any other preparation.

Therefore, be sure to get Hood's Sarsaparilla, the best blood purifier.

PERFECT VENTILATION (GON AQUATIONS).
The Work Done in Cleaning Out Fireproof Cellars.
Sergeant Graves and Assistant Chief Suitor have canvassed about half of the city under the new ordinance requiring the inspection of cellars for fire protection.
They began at the foot of Farnam Street near the river and have worked south and west, taking in the cellars and basements of all business houses. Those found in a dangerous condition were ordered cleaned within forty-eight hours and a second visit is made to see that the order is complied with. Of the 129 places thus far visited, sixty-two have been found in an unsafe condition. Many of the shopkeepers had their cellars full of combustible material and some small grocers have been in the habit of making the cellars catch-alls for sweeping paper, boxes, and all kinds of refuse. The basements of the wholesale and larger houses are perfectly clean. A large majority of the people visited are satisfied to have the work done and consider it a good idea. A few of them, however, protest, and these generally are the recipients of a notice. The work so far has consumed ten days, half a day at a time.

A Matter of Interest to Travelers.
Tourists, emigrants and mariners find that Hostetler's Stomach Bitters is a medicinal safeguard against unhealthy influences, upon which they can implicitly rely, since it prevents the effects that an unhealthy climate, vitiated atmosphere, unaccustomed or unwholesome diet, bad water or other conditions unfavorable to health, would otherwise produce. On long voyages, or journeys by land in latitudes adjacent to the equator, it is especially useful as a preventive of the febrile complaints and all disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels, which are apt to attack natives of the temperate zones sojourning or traveling in such regions, and is an excellent protection against the influence of extreme cold, sudden changes of temperature, exposure to damp or extreme fatigue. It not only prevents intermittent and remittent fever and other diseases of mal aria type, but eradicates them, a fact which has been notorious for years past in North and South America, Mexico, the West Indies, Australia and other countries.
McKIBBIN'S FALSE VOUCHERS.
Mr. Barnes of St. Louis Denies Having Any Knowledge of Them.
G.H. Barnes, senior member of the lumber firm at St. Louis, from whom Mr. C.H. McKibbin, late general purchasing agent of the Union Pacific, purchased lumber, denies all knowledge of Mr. McKibbin's alleged false vouchers. He says the statement that he sold lumber to McKibbin at a higher rate than the latter could secure elsewhere, was incorrect. He said, however, that he had sold lumber to McKibbin as cheap as he could sell to anyone. As nearly as Mr. Barnes could estimate it, his business with the Union Pacific amounted to about $300,000 a year. He considered his success in securing such a large trade with this corporation due more than anything else to his promptness in delivering the material.
It has been discovered that McKibbin's expense accounts were something enormous. Piles of vouchers, representing amounts running from $21.00 to $600.00, were turned in and paid. A gentleman who has had something to do with making the investigation, has said that the former purchasing agent could easily have doubled his salary in this way and probably did.
The Road Will
It was an official of the Burlington who said that the western roads proposed to make a hard fight against the Interstate commerce commission's recent order for a reduction of rates from Missouri river points to Chicago. He declared that they could not stand a reduction of the tariff, which was 20 cents on corn from Omaha to Chicago and 15 cents to the Mississippi river. The commission thinks that 17 cents and 18 cents would be about right. Before it undertakes to enforce the order, however, all roads interested will be given an opportunity to be heard, July 8 has been fixed as the time for the hearing. The presidents held a meeting in Chicago Wednesday, at which they decided to resist the recommendation, and, if possible, prevent a lowering of the rate.
Adams WILL Be the Man.
When Geneval Traffic Manager Mellon of the Union Pacific left for Denver Wednesday, he said that A.H. Johnson's successor as freight agent of the Colorado and New Mexico divisions would not be appointed until he (Mr. Mellon) should reach there. It is known, however, that he had made up his mind to appoint H.W. Adams, for a long time general agent of the road at Butte City, Mont. Mr. Adams commenced his career with the Union Pacific as a clerk, showed himself to be an uncommonly brilliant young man and has been rapidly promoted.
New Route to Sioux City.
The Kansas, City, St. Joseph & Council Bluffs road has announced a new rate on first and second-class freight between Kansas City and Sioux City that may be the means of inaugurating a small war. It makes a reduction of 10 cents per hundred on the first and second classes, 5 cents on the third, and a corresponding cut through the entire list. This affects the business of the Missouri Pacific in only a slight degree, however, and may cause it to retaliate by decreasing the rate between Kansas City and Omaha.
A New Stage Line Started.
The Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley has made arrangements to start quite an extensive stage business July 1 from its various termini in the Black Hills to points beyond. The most extensive and important daily line will be from Casper, Wyo., to Lander and Fort Washakie. By this route, a passenger may leave Omaha Monday evening, reach Casper Tuesday at 1:10 a.m., and Lander on Wednesday at 1 p.m., a day earlier than by any other line. Connections will be instated on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at Deer Creek with stages for Lost Cabin.
To Close Up Its Business.
All the general passenger agents of trans-Missouri roads which were taken into the new western passenger association are holding a meeting at Kansas City to close up the business of the old trans-Missouri association. Messrs. Loomis and Francis of the Union Pacific and Burlington respectively are in attendance.
Encountered Another Hitch.
The Milwaukee officials have telegraphed General Agent Nash that they have encountered another hitch which may make it impossible for the Milwaukee to commence running the passenger trains across the river into Omaha July 1. The trouble seems to be in a failure of the temporary union depot builders to get trucks office room and yard facilities ready by that time. The freight trains, however, will come across on that day. A local agent is to be appointed at South Omaha, though as yet no one has been selected for the place.
Northwestern Officials.
W.H. Newman, general traffic manager, and J.M. Whitman, general superintendent of the Northwestern, were in Omaha yesterday. They had a long conference with Vice President Holcomb at the Union Pacific headquarters.
The meeting was very successful, with between live hundred and six hundred physicians present, accompanied by their wives and daughters. Among the topics under discussion, the most important were those of medical legislation and medical education. Resolutions were unanimously adopted requiring the 30 who shall hereafter enter any of the homeopathic medical colleges of the United States to present a diploma or pass an examination in literature and science equal to the requirements for graduation from and of our best literary and scientific colleges. For graduation, they must have studied medicine for four years and attended not less than three courses of medical lectures of not less than six months each, and not more than one course in any one year. Thus, it will be seen that the homeopathic school of practice, through the national association, has taken high and advanced grounds in regard to medical education.
The doctor was continued as a member of the bureau of medical legislation and made chairman of the bureau of medical education, thus giving Nebraska representation on two of the most important bureaus of the Institute.
The only railroad train out of Omaha running expressly for the accommodation of Omaha, Council Bluffs, Des Moines, and Chicago business is the Hook Island vestibule limited, leaving Omaha at 4:15 p.m. daily. Ticket office 100.2, Sixteenth and Farnam St., Omaha.

The Stayers Will Win.
It is the opinion of the leading local railroad officials that the contemplated improvements and location of industries at "East Omaha" (Cut-off island) will before long cause a revival in the real estate market and general business of the city, only equalled by the great activity that prevailed on the opening of South Omaha as a live stock market.
"Omaha has just begun to grow," said a well-posted man yesterday, "and the 'stayers' are the ones who will win."
Its superior location, proximity to the Missouri, and mild climate make it a desirable place for residence and business.

LONDON , Juno 23. [ New York Herald Cable
ble- Special to THE BEE. ] During the early
Hours this morning , nt the Pelican club , bc
fore a Corlnthcan gathering unparalelled
cither In numbers or enthusiasm nt the
swagger resort , George Dlxon , bantam
weight champion of America , boxed Nunc
Wallace of Birmingham , for u purse of jEuOO ,
offered by the Pelican club.
There was scarcely room to breathe In the
Berried ranks which packed the arena when
the combatants stepped Into the 21-foot ring.
Uproarous applause greeted tlio darkey ,
who first appeared , and another wave of
Hearty cheering burst over the theatre as
Nunc Wallace walked to his comer.
Some tlmo elapsed before sllonco
sufficient to Hear the referee's voice was ob
tained. Angle , ns soon as the hubbub , sub-
elded , in solemn emphasis read aloud the
- mo3t important rules , these pertaining to con
duct , surroundings and witli regard to fouls ,
will lay an oven 1,000 on Wallace , "
hbiited Charley Hlbbort , but there were no
takers and not even the slightest shade of
odds , nor 8,000 , to jEI.OOO , would tempt a re
sponse.
Lord Lonsdnlo Interposed for order nnd at
the same tlmo nodded to accept a big wager
In support of Dlxon. .
There was wonderful contrsst between the
competitors. The Englishman looked much
stronger , with his bulldog visago.conventioii-
nlly typical of our best style of bruiser.
The colored gentleman , who , save gloves ,
black pants and narrow breech cloth , was In
purls nnturulibus , seemed the beau Ideal of a
wary , sinewy athlete.
Alf Greenfield and Dick Roberts seconded
the Birmingham man , while O'Rotirko and
McGotigh did simitar office for George
Dlxon. Jack Anglo presided on the ros
trum ns referee and Wukefield uotoJ as time
keeper.
There was a hush as the men shook hands ,
each as patient as the other , but Wallace
was first to begin , and amid subdued ex
citement the Englishman led throughout the
first round.
Ho followed up tills success in the next bout
and with slightly less effect In the third ,
but his work had no effect ou the mahogany
nudity who showed no trace of rough treat
ment. \
%
In the fourth round there was a wonderful
change , Dixon simply walking round his an
tagonist in every round till the tenth , where
in , after u desperate rally , the Englishman
suffered dreadfully.
There were yells and counter yells ,
j and' the whole throng arose , for at
S tlijs point It looked as if the contest was
- / " "About to bo closed. The call of time mercifully -
Jr . fully gave breathing space , but that round
Y virtually determined tlio match , for from this
forward there was little hope for Wallace.
A fearful right-hander in the eighteenth
round knocked the Birmingham lad silly , and
driven Helplessly into a corner , iio was at the
mercy of the colored man , who pinnniclcd
him till "Nunc , stretching forth his helpless
Hand , acknowledged an overwhelming dofoat.

Tlio Passage of the Wyoming Dill by

CHBYENN-E , Wyo : , Juno 27. Spscial Tele
gram to Tin : BCB. ] Never baforo in its his
tory has this city seen such a daas this has
been. For three days the feelings of the
people have been worked up to the Highest
tension. The Wyoming bill has been up
before the senate nnd there wore
the most positive assurances that
it would pass. It had hung fire so long that
nothing short of its absolute passage would
satisfy the people.
The Associated press report closed at 2:30 :
p. m. , leaving the people under the impres
sion that the bill had been under discussion
until the hour of adjournment. Men came pour
ing out of the busiucss places into thu street
and collected about the utilletiti boards to sea
if the news was true. Oiico satisfied of tnis ,
the decorations begun.
Nearly everybody lm-J their decorations
ready waiting for the signal to Hash them to
the breeze. Tho'feellng then wasllPthat. , the
bill would go over till Mdnday and every
body bad about settled down to that convlc-
tlon'when the news was received at y :2Ci : that
the bill had passed.
In less than five minutes thereafter
there was au uprising of tlio natives.
Many of the business houses were completely
hidden under the tricolor. Flags fioated
everywhere. Soon there began to appear on
the streets young men in fantastic costumes
composed of the national colors , and oven
young ladies , arrayed like Coluinbias. The
bicycle appeared nearly ono hundred strong ,
their wheels beautifully decorated.
A uetacnmciiL 01 men wiui musitets went
through the residence portion of the town ami
made the welkin ring with their shouting.
The fire alarm was set in motion in a very
few minutes after the news reached hero.
The refrain was taken Up by ttio churcU bells
and echoed by the locomotive whistles. An
oxtiuordlnnry supply of firc-eracKers and
other combustibles had been laid in by tlio
toy stores und soon a din almost equal to
pandemonium was raised.
All of the business streets were packed
with people , so that it was almost impossible
to move along them. Every vehicle in tlio
city was drapo.l with the national colors. In
the evening there was n tremendous bonfire
at the corner of Seventeenth and Ferguson
streets , and the prosoediiiKS of the afternoon
wen ; extended and amplified.
The gun dub had n firing squad in atten
dance. Half a dozen speeches were made
and notwithstanding u uampener of rain the
racket and din was kept np for hours.
Cheyenne is sure enough delirious with joy
this evening.

She IB n Wife ami Not a Mnld.
Scnim.KH , Nob. , June 27. [ Special to Tun
BEE. ] The case of Lydia Belle Woods vs
George W. Poole was decided by Judge Post
last night , the veruict being for the defend
ant. This is n case with nn interesting his
tory. George W. Poole , a well-to-do bach
elor , thirty-two years of age , living on n farm
near this city , had for many years been pay
ing Ills addresses to Miss Woods. In fact ,
they had courted since they were in their
swaddling clothes. The young woman was
not averse to receiving the attentions of the
man who was ten years her senior , but her
father objected to tlio match , and for this rea
son the time when the two should bo united
in marriage was not set.
On December 20 , IbSU , Miss Ward was in
vited to the Poole residence , as she supposed ,
to witness the marriage of Miss Nellie Poole ,
but , > vhonsho.loft , tho.premises , she dis
covered slio was n wife Instead of a maid. It
all happened like this. Miss Poole and her
intended husband , Oscar Peterson were
called onto the floor , when someone suc-
gcstcd there bo u bridesmaid and a bride
groom. George took advantage of the oppor
tunity and taking Lydia by the hand , led her
out before the audience , who-o the Hon.
George II. Thomas performed the ceremony ,
marrying both couples.
Congratulations were offered but Lydia
was nn obstinate bride and would not have
It that way , still clinging to the idea that she
was not a wife , nt least that is the storv she
has always told. After this she returned to
her homo and Instead of living with Poole ,
who commenced suit to have the marriage
sot aside , on the grounds Unit if it was a
marriage , it was procured by fraud and de
ceit.
ceit.Tho
The tale that Poole unfolded on the wit
ness stand was of a different character. He
swore that on the day of the wedding ho told
the girl that ho had pro
cured the license and had bought
many things with which to go to housekeep
ing , and just bcforo going into the room
where the ceremony was performed Lydia
had remarked , "George , I love you well
enough to marry you. " They then took their
places before the ofllciating olilcer ami the
usual questions were propounded , to all of
which the girl answered in tlio alllrmative.
Tlio decision is no surprise to the people of
this vicinity , as in their minds they have al
ways considered the marriage n legal one and
have been surprised to think that Miss Woods
would enter into such un agreement and then
deny Its existence.

Senator Manderson , who has been punch
ing up the treasury officials In reference to

other letter from the supervising architect
today in which that gentleman says that ab
solutely nothing can bo done by his office
under the law until the court officials in
Omaha report that the tltio to the site to bo
vested is vested in the United States. Al
though more than a month has elapsed slnco
the money to pay for the block was sent to
Omaha , the department has not yet been ad
vised that the title lias been perfected. Un
til this is done nothing can bo accom
plished in tlio way of clearing
the lots of the buildings which are upon
them , and the law prohibits the expenditure
of a single dollar on the plans , consequently
the whole matter is nt a standstill awaiting
the action of the United States district attor
ney at Omaha. The supervising architect
suggests that it might bo well to wait before
commencing the plans until congress disposes
of the pending bill for the Increase of the
limit of cost. But Senator Manderson says
that as soon as the title is clear ho wants the
supervising architect to begin ou the plans ,
and will so advlso him.
AX INTERESTING Sl'Bl.Tlt.
General Kcnncdyof Ohiowho made n repu
tation a few years ago for brilliant partisan
republicanism by deadlocking the upper
branch of the Buckeye legislature , made ono
of the most intensely interesting speeches
this afternoon that has yet been delivered on
the federal election bill. Ho declared that
President Cleveland was elected by virtue of
the suppression of votes and challenged the
democrats to contradict the statement. Ho
said the negroes had been frightened away
from the polls and there was , a diabolical in
trigue in the cities of New York and Brook
lyn and portions of Indiana us well
as a general conspiracy in close
southern states to secure solid electoral
delegations for tbo democratic candidate.
His speech was so pronounced as to stnte-
ment'of fact that no effort was made on the
part of the democratic side to contradic.t him.
General Kennedy is ono of tlio most aggressive
"
sive followers "of Senator Sherman and
handles the southern subject very much like
his old leader. Some of the speeches which
have been made in tlio house on the federal
election bill have caused n good deal of com
ment hero. For instance , Mr. Hempliill of
South Carolina , in his speech yesterday ,
made this remarkable statement : "We know
wo must cither rule the south or leave it.
Now for myself , before tlio people
of the United States and be
fore God , in all reverence , I swear wo
will not leave it. ( Democratic applause. ] It
is the homo of our fathers ; there their bones
.lie buried. There they bought it with their
blood when Concord and Laxiugton were the
battlefields of this country. They have ,
handed it down to us unimpaired , and , gen
tlemen , are wo now our fathers' sons. Shall
the blood first turn back in our-veinsl Shall
we transmit to coming generations a great
and a noble state which has been overruled
and downtrodden by a race whom God novcr
intended should vulo over us ? I do not hesi
tate to say tlo colored man has as many rights
as I have , but ho cannot have his rights and
mine , too. And this law is intended to put
him again in control of tlio southern states. "
Per contra , Mr. Rowoll of Illinois , chair
man of the committee on elections. In defend
ing the proposed election law said that In
some districts of the south armed bodies of
men went from poll to poll and destroyed the
ballot boxes , in others ballot boxes were
stuffed and true ballots were thrown away ,
in others military companies were organized
to fire cannon morning and night to lot the
darkles know that "there is going to bo a fair
election. " The cabins of the negroes were
fired into , and if they were not successful
and the negroes turned out the military olll-
cers made the polls a target for their target
practice.
Every effort is being made by Speaker
Reed and other leaders of the house to have
present on next AVedncsday as many republi
can members as possible , so that the federal
election bill may receive a majority.
Not a single democrat will support the
measure , it is stated , and there are vague in
structions that a lew republicans in the
north and a half dozen or moro in tho. 'south
will vote against the measure , so that its fate
is doubtful. Speaker Reed , Major McKinley
and Mr. Rowcll confidently believe , however ,
that the bill will receive a majority in the
house. It was feared that the democrats
would attempt to break a quorum and compel
the speaker to count as present those of thorn
who would leave their seats In the house just
bcforo the vote was culled upon the bill , but
the leaders on the democratic side say they
have no intention of doing this and that they
intend to remain in their seats and vote , bo-
Moving that they can defeat the bill. When
n senator becomes so absent minded that ho
walks directly into the cupitol. proceeds
through the lower corridors , mounts a ilight
of steps and walks directly to the door of the
Semite chamber with oil umbrella raised and
hold high hbove his head , laboring under the
impression that it is raining insldo , as well
as outsiuo the capltol , his constituents should
look after him.

TIIVI.NO TO CUT THE SALARY.
In the senate this afternoon the conference
committee on the legislative , executive and
judicial appropriation bill reported that the
conferees on the part of the house hud de
manded of the senate to recede from its
amendment increasing the salary of Land
Commissioner Grolf from $ . ' ) , roe to > , OUOu

sioner from 1,000 to 1,500 and a motion was

amendment making the increase by an over
whelming majority and it was not the duty
or privilege of the senate conferees to concur
in a motion to rccoda and strike out. Ho said
the salaries ought to and must bo Increased.
His speech had the effect of retaining the
provisions in the bill for another conference.

Citicuao , June's" . [ Special Telegram to
TUB BBB.I Tlio surprise of the day was the
sudden cessation of Lawyer Francis 'AI.
Charlton's warou thogroutChlcago gas trust.
A little after IS o'clock a son of C. 1C. G.
Billings , president of the trust , appeared in
Judge Collins' court and filed a paper signed
by Chnrlton and the defendants'attoinoys ,
In which It was stipulated by the complain
ant and defendants that the case bo dismissed
without costs to either party.
The stipulation was entered on record and
Charlton's trial dismissed. Tlio
was . settle
ment carries with It the discharge of Colonel
George R. Davis us receiver , though no
formal order to that effect has been entered.
Parties Interested were reticent about giving
the cause of the dismissal of Charlton's suit
at least such of them as could be seen. Mil
ton J. Beck , Charlton's law partner , said :
"I did not know tluiftho suit was going to
bo dismissed until yesterday , and when
Chavlton told mo of It I strongly urged him
not to do it. I told him that everybody would
say ho had sold out. Charlton replied that ho
had not received a cent and would not receive
any 'money ; that ho was not in the case to Uo
bought. "
"What reason , then , did ho assign for
dropping the easel"
"Ho said that from what ho could see tlio
litigation promised to bo an endless one , with
some doubts of his being successful after nil.
Ho said ho Had already been asked by his
lawyer for money to carry on the suit and
that ho did not see his way clear to got out
even. I don't believe ho has received money
or that he expected to make a cent , except to
protect his ten shares of stock. "
Other people differ from Mr. Beck. It was
always claimed by W. C. Goudy that Charl
ton's suit was nothing but a toclc jobbing
scheme. The street reporters have it that
Charlton has all along been the agent of Sid
Kent in the manipulation of a gigantic deal
in Chicago Gas and that his suit was in
Kent's interest , and that Kent now comes out
of tlio transaction with a cool million made by
the decline when a receiver was appointed
and the rebound now to increased points ,

latter 'in at the last meeting of the society

committee was that thuy did not desire to be
come involved in the litigation over the Hood
pending then. At the present meeting the
committee lias given It out generally that no
report will bo made unless It Is forced by the
society. The sealed report Is said to contain
some highly interesting data concerning the
condition of the South Fork dam , prior to
the fiood. It is stated on good authority thut
the report states that the dam was
structurally as perfect as it could bo made ,
evidenced by the ciremiistaaeo that at the
time of the fiood a foot of water poured over
the dam for two hours , and that when at last
the dam broke It did so from the top. It is
said that the report will further state that a
largo waste weir might have prevented the
fiood. Many members of the society are al

stories nro current. The report will bo in

to THE BBB.J Au alliance offensive and do-

Chili by secret treaty. The object is'nn attack
upon Cliili. The news is so generally believed
that tlio Chilian government is said to bo
making big preparations. This word was re
ceived hero yesterday by mall from the Ar
gentina Republic. In confirmation of this
news Is an article in the Parvenla Militia ,
the organ of the Argentine army , which says :
"Chill without doubt believes that someone
ono desirca to wrest from it the territory it
acquired and which has produced good'rcntals
slnco it was taken from Pom and Bolivia

Chili proves that it is bomowhut unquiet re

well prepared attltudo It awaits judgment.
Happily , however , the interests of tlio whole
of South America .aro higher than those of
Chill and an effort is being mada to check its

CHIOAOO , Juno 27. [ Special Telegram to
Tin : BEB. ] The slough of despond wnsv
reached today by central traffic lines when ,
they met the Wubosh-Cunadlan Pacific rate
of 1)0 ) cents on dressed beef , Chicago to Bos
ton. This reduction was accompanied with n
reduction to 18 cents on live cattle. The tall
has now verily gone with the hide , for both
these rates are non-paying ,
The Id-cent rate on dressed l > oof and 10
cents on cattle marked the line where the
traffic could bo made to yield expenses.
Should the rates go lower the efforts of nil
lines will bo to shove the traffic upon their
neighbors. The Wubash-Cunadiun Puolfio
line lias como in out of the wet by making
contracts with a number of shippers whereby
they get their business nt. DO cents whether
rates go lower or not.
The Grand Trunk has probably made the
same kind of contracts. The Wabash-Can-
ildlan combination has woaked Its argument
for a differential rate by claiming to make
bettor time than any of Its competitors and It
is well known the Canadian Pacific can make
n paying rate further below than is possible
in tlio United States.
Thu argument for a differential lias always
been a poorly equipped or longer route and
the central tnilllc fines nro laying In ammuni

so amended ns to include nn advance to the .
old basis of every western freight rate excolit
the east bound rates on grain from Kansas
and Nebraska and the proportion of the
through rate from Chicago to St. Paul on
business from the seaboard.
The only hitch in the proceeding comes in
right here. It Is impossible to raise
this proportional r.ito on account of'
lake and Canadian Pacific competition mid.
the divergence will bo presented of a 00 cent ,
rate , Chicago to St. Paul , and a 71 cent all
rail rate from New York to St. Paul. Such , ,
a difference was once declared discriminatory
and illegal by Chairman Cooley of the inter

bo an objection , However , It will bo argued
that it is compelled by late and foreign com
petition. Should the advance to 00 cents to- .
St. Paul bo made there will bo opposition to.
a 75 cent rate to the river.
The effect of the low rate mid Canadian.
rates is foil as far soutli as Sioux City , however -

CONQUERS WALLACE,
The African Wonder Stretches the English
Sensless at His Feet.
FORTUNES CHANGE HANDS ON THE RESULT
The Largest Throng Ever Packed
Within the Walls of the Pelican
Club Witnessed the Pet's Defeat.
DURING the early
Hours this morning, at the Pelican club, before a Corinthian gathering unparalleled
either in numbers or enthusiasm at the
swagger resort, George Dixon, bantam
weight champion of America, boxed Nunc
Wallace of Birmingham, for a purse of £1,000,
offered by the Pelican club.
There was scarcely room to breathe in the
crowded ranks which packed the arena when
the combatants stepped into the 21-foot ring.
Uproarious applause greeted the darkey,
who first appeared, and another wave of
hearty cheering burst over the theatre as
Nunc Wallace walked to his corner.
Some time elapsed before silence
sufficient to hear the referee's voice was obtained. Angle, as soon as the hubbub subsided, in solemn emphasis read aloud the
most important rules, these pertaining to conduct, surroundings and with regard to fouls,
will lay an even 1,000 on Wallace, "
shouted Charlie Hibbert, but there were no
takers and not even the slightest shade of
odds, nor 8,000, to £1,000, would tempt a response.
Lord Londonderry Interposed for order and at
the same time nodded to accept a big wager
In support of Dixon.
There was wonderful contrast between the
competitors. The Englishman looked much
stronger, with his bulldog visage conventionally typical of our best style of bruiser.
The colored gentleman, who, save gloves,
black pants and narrow breech cloth, was in
parts naturalibus, seemed the beau ideal of a
wary, sinewy athlete.
Alf Greenfield and Dick Roberts seconded
the Birmingham man, while O'Roarke and
McGough did similar office for George
Dixon. Jack Anglo presided on the rostrum as referee and Wakefield acted as time
keeper.
There was a hush as the men shook hands,
each as patient as the other, but Wallace
was first to begin, and amid subdued excitement the Englishman led throughout the
first round.
He followed up this success in the next round
and with slightly less effect in the third,
but his work had no effect on the mahogany
nudity who showed no trace of rough treatment.
In the fourth round there was a wonderful
change, Dixon simply walking round his antagonist in every round till the tenth, where
in, after a desperate rally, the Englishman
suffered dreadfully.
There were yells and counter-yells,
and the whole throng arose, for at
this point it looked as if the contest was
about to be closed. The call of time mercifully
gave breathing space, but that round
virtually determined the match, for from this
forward there was little hope for Wallace.
A fearful right-hander in the eighteenth
round knocked the Birmingham lad silly, and
driven Helplessly into a corner, he was at the
mercy of the colored man, who pummelled
him till "Nunc, stretching forth his helpless
hand, acknowledged an overwhelming defeat.
WRECKS AT SEA.

the law be recalled. The director replied

be repealed. The chambers of commerce of
Hamburg and Wiedenbrück, the most important
pork markets in Germany, endorsed the request
of Westphalia.

EX-Senator Palmer of Michigan Unanimously Elected.
CHICAGO, June 27. Ex-Senator Palmer of
Michigan was unanimously elected president
of the world's Columbian exposition at today's
meeting of the national commission and J. S.
Sicklinson of Texas was chosen secretary.
The committee on permanent organization
recommended that the officers of the commission consist of a president, five vice presidents, treasurer and secretary, the first vice
president to be of opposite politics to the president, and the other four to be equally divided between the parties. The report was
adopted and the election of the president, and
secretary settled as above.
The matter of vice presidents was referred
back to the committee to report recommendations.
The executive committee of the National
Live Stock association called on President
Palmer this afternoon. He told them that
His heart was with them in their desires regarding the live stock exhibit and promised
the committee that he would carefully look
after their interests and advised them to present their petition at once, insisting strongly
upon space being allotted and on a rough estimate being made. He further advised them
to ask for not even 200 acres.
John T. Dickinson, who was today elected
secretary of the world's Columbian exposition, was born June 18, 1858, in Houston, Tex.
His father was a Scotchman and his mother a
Virginian. He was educated in England and
Scotland and at the University of Virginia,
where he graduated with the degree of bachelor of law when he was twenty-one years old.
Returning to Texas, two years thereafter, Colonel Dickinson was elected secretary of the Texas state capitol board. He held this position during the entire construction of the largest state house in the union, at the same time being secretary of several other state boards, serving under three successive governors of Texas. Upon the completion of the Texas capitol, Colonel Dickinson was the secretary and general manager of the famous Interstate military encampment given at Austin, Tex., in May, 1887, in honor of the dedication of the Texas state house. Immediately thereafter, he was elected secretary and general manager of the San Antonio International Fair association and organized and managed its first great Texas-Mexican exhibition in November, 1888. The following summer, Colonel Dickinson resigned this position to travel for the Chicago world's fair committee, interviewing members of Congress in several states, and joined the committee in Washington on the opening of Congress, working with it until Chicago finally won the fight for the location of the fair. Colonel Dickinson is probably the youngest member of the national commission.
THE PASSAGE OF THE WYOMING BILL by the Senate into history the People.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 27. Special Telegraph to The Bee.] Never before in its history has this city seen such days as these have been. For three days the feelings of the people have been worked up to the highest tension. The Wyoming bill has been up before the senate and there were the most positive assurances that it would pass. It had hung fire so long that nothing short of its absolute passage would satisfy the people.
The Associated Press report closed at 2:30: p.m., leaving the people under the impression that the bill had been under discussion until the hour of adjournment. Men came pouring out of the business places into the street and collected about the utility boards to see if the news was true. Once satisfied of this, the decorations began.
Nearly everybody had their decorations ready, waiting for the signal to raise them to the breeze. The feeling then was that, the bill would go over till Monday and everybody had about settled down to that conviction, when the news was received at 2:30 that the bill had passed.
In less than five minutes thereafter, there was an uprising of the natives. Many of the business houses were completely hidden under the tricolor. Flags floated everywhere. Soon there began to appear on the streets young men in fantastic costumes composed of the national colors, and even young ladies, arrayed like Columbias. The bicycle appeared nearly one hundred strong, their wheels beautifully decorated.
A tremendous force of men with muskets went through the residence portion of the town and made the welkin ring with their shouting. The fire alarm was set in motion in a very few minutes after the news reached here. The refrain was taken up by the church bells and echoed by the locomotive whistles. An extraordinary supply of fire-crackers and other combustibles had been laid in by the toy stores and soon a din almost equal to pandemonium was raised.
All of the business streets were packed with people, so that it was almost impossible to move along them. Every vehicle in the city was draped with the national colors. In the evening there was a tremendous bonfire at the corner of Seventeenth and Ferguson streets, and the proceedings of the afternoon were extended and amplified.
The gun club had a firing squad in attendance. Half a dozen speeches were made and notwithstanding a shower of rain, the racket and din was kept up for hours.
Cheyenne is surely enough delirious with joy this evening.
Great Relief at Lincoln.
LINCOLN, Wyo., June 27. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] The news that the Wyoming bill had passed the senate was received with great enthusiasm today.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION AT FREMONT,
A Eulysver Judge Decides the Case of Lydia Belle Woods vs. George W. Poole In Favor of the Defendant.
AVOCA, Neb., June 27. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] Word has Just been received here of a fatal shooting affair at Berlin, the next station south of here on the Missouri Pacific railway. The particulars received are as follows:

Kerfoot, who was only released from the Dakota county Jail a few weeks ago, where he had been serving a term of six months for having assaulted a prominent business man of Berlin the last Fourth, went into O.

Coroner Karsten of Nebraska City was sent for and has Just arrived. The dead man leaves a wife and two children.

Resolutions were adopted, endorsing Hon. L. D. Richards for governor and citing his peculiar fitness for that position. The last resolution of the series, all being unanimously adopted, was as follows:

It was a pleasure to give him our undivided support, and we instruct the delegation to the state convention to present to that body the name of L. D. Kullmark and use all honorable means to secure his nomination for governor. She is a wife and not a maid.
Scanning, Neb., June 27. [Special to The Bee.] The case of Lydia Belle Woods vs George W. Poole was decided by Judge Post last night, the verdict being for the defendant. This is a case with an interesting history. George W. Poole, a well-to-do bachelor, thirty-two years of age, living on a farm near this city, had for many years been paying his addresses to Miss Woods. In fact, they had courted since they were in their swaddling clothes. The young woman was not averse to receiving the attentions of the man who was ten years her senior, but her father objected to the match, and for this reason the time when the two should be united in marriage was not set.
On December 20, 1883, Miss Woods was invited to the Poole residence, as she supposed, to witness the marriage of Miss Nellie Poole, but, when she arrived, the premises were deserted, and she discovered she was a wife instead of a maid. It all happened like this. Miss Poole and her intended husband, Oscar Peterson, were called onto the floor, when someone suggested there be a bridesmaid and a bridegroom. George took advantage of the opportunity and, taking Lydia by the hand, led her out before the audience, who the Hon. George H. Thomas performed the ceremony, marrying both couples.
Congrats were offered but Lydia was an obstinate bride and would not have it that way, still clinging to the idea that she was not a wife, at least that is the story she has always told. After this, she returned to her home and instead of living with Poole, who commenced suit to have the marriage set aside, on the grounds that if it was a marriage, it was procured by fraud and deceit.
The tale that Poole unfolded on the witness stand was of a different character. He swore that on the day of the wedding he told the girl that he had procured the license and had bought many things with which to go to housekeeping, and just before going into the room where the ceremony was performed, Lydia had remarked, "George, I love you well enough to marry you." They then took their places before the officiating officer and the usual questions were propounded, to all of which the girl answered in the affirmative. The decision is no surprise to the people of this vicinity, as in their minds they have always considered the marriage a legal one and have been surprised to think that Miss Woods would enter into such an agreement and then deny its existence.

They managed to make their escape and deputies have been searching for them all day. It is thought they are hidden in the hills near town. This is the third time within a few months that this store has been robbed. The burglars last night had a key of the back door. The booty was left behind this time.
Grand Island Chautauqua!
GRAND ISLAND, Neb., June 27. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] Already a large number of men have been discharged from the Union Pacific shops, the percentage being larger than at any other point along the line.

The Union Pacific has never fulfilled its part of the agreement, as there has never been the number of men employed that they promised. The shops were filled with machinery, but every year they have removed some of it to other points.
The men who were discharged are unable to get transportation to other points except by paying the full fare.

OMAHA'S PUBLIC BUILDING,
Nothing Can Be Done Until the Government Gets Title,
AN EFFORT IS BEING MADE TO PUSH MATTERS,
An Ohio Man Makes an Interesting Speech on the Federal 10th Congressional Election
WASHINGTON BUREAU OF THE OMAHA BEE,
513 FOURTEENTH STREET,
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 27.)
Senator Manderson, who has been poking up the treasury officials in reference to the Omaha public building site, received another letter from the supervising architect today in which that gentleman says that absolutely nothing can be done by his office under the law until the court officials in Omaha report that the title to the site to be vested is vested in the United States. Although more than a month has elapsed since the money to pay for the block was sent to Omaha, the department has not yet been advised that the title has been perfected. Until this is done, nothing can be accomplished in the way of clearing the lots of the buildings which are upon them, and the law prohibits the expenditure of a single dollar on the plans, consequently the whole matter is at a standstill awaiting the action of the United States district attorney at Omaha. The supervising architect suggests that it might be well to wait before commencing the plans until congress disposes of the pending bill for the increase of the limit of cost. But Senator Manderson says that as soon as the title is clear, he wants the supervising architect to begin on the plans, and will so advise him.
AN INTERESTING SPEECH.
General Kennedy of Ohio, who made a reputation a few years ago for brilliant partisan republicanism by deadlocking the upper branch of the Buckeye legislature, made one of the most intensely interesting speeches this afternoon that has yet been delivered on the federal election bill. He declared that President Cleveland was elected by virtue of the suppression of votes and challenged the democrats to contradict the statement. He said the negroes had been frightened away from the polls and there was a diabolical intrigue in the cities of New York and Brooklyn and portions of Indiana as well as a general conspiracy in the close southern states to secure solid electoral delegations for the democratic candidate. His speech was so pronounced as to statements of fact that no effort was made on the part of the democratic side to contradict him. General Kennedy is one of the most aggressive followers of Senator Sherman and handles the southern subject very much like his old leader. Some of the speeches which have been made in the house on the federal election bill have caused a good deal of comment here. For instance, Mr. Hemphill of South Carolina, in his speech yesterday, made this remarkable statement: "We know we must either rule the south or leave it."
Now for myself, before the people of the United States and before God, in all reverence, I swear we will not leave it. (Democratic applause.) It is the home of our fathers; there their bones lie buried. There they bought it with their blood when Concord and Lexington were the battlefields of this country. They have handed it down to us unimpaired, and, gentlemen, are we now our fathers' sons? Shall the blood first turn back in our veins? Shall we transmit to coming generations a great and a noble state which has been overruled and downtrodden by a race whom God never intended should rule over us? I do not hesitate to say the colored man has as many rights as I have, but he cannot have his rights and mine, too. And this law is intended to put him again in control of the southern states."
Per contra, Mr. Rowell of Illinois, chairman of the committee on elections. In defending the proposed election law said that in some districts of the south armed bodies of men went from poll to poll and destroyed the ballot boxes, in others ballot boxes were stuffed and true ballots were thrown away, in others military companies were organized to fire cannon morning and night to let the darbies know there is going to be a fair election. The cabins of the negroes were fired into, and if they were not successful and the negroes turned out the military officers made the polls a target for their target practice.
Every effort is being made by Speaker Reed and other leaders of the house to have present on next Wednesday as many republican members as possible, so that the federal election bill may receive a majority.
Not a single democrat will support the measure, it is stated, and there are vague instructions that a few republicans in the north and a half dozen or more in the south will vote against the measure, so that its fate is doubtful. Speaker Reed, Major McKinley, and Mr. Rowell confidently believe, however, that the bill will receive a majority in the house. It was feared that the democrats would attempt to break a quorum and compel the speaker to count as present those of them who would leave their seats in the house just before the vote was called upon the bill, but the leaders on the democratic side say they have no intention of doing this and that they intend to remain in their seats and vote, so that they can defeat the bill. When a senator becomes so absent-minded that he walks directly into the capitol, proceeds through the lower corridors, mounts a flight of steps and walks directly to the door of the Senate chamber with an umbrella raised and held high above his head, laboring under the impression that it is raining inside as well as outside the capitol, his constituents should look after him.
LIST OF EXAMINATIONS EXHAUSTED.
The civil service commission's list of eligibles for appointment as topographic aids in the geological survey is exhausted and it is likely a large number of appointments will need to be made soon. For the purpose of obtaining a list of eligibles, special examinations will be held at the following points on Tuesday, July 8: Chicago, Omaha, Cincinnati, St. Louis, and Kansas City, and Denver on a date to be hereafter fixed. The subjects of the examination are: Letter writing, algebra, geometry, plain trigonometry, surveying, astronomy, and topographic drawing.
TURNING TO CUT THE SALARY.
In the senate this afternoon the conference committee on the legislative, executive, and judicial appropriation bill reported that the conferees on the part of the house had demanded of the senate to recede from its amendment increasing the salary of Land Commissioner Groll from $5,000 to $6,000 per year and the salary of the assistant commissioner from $1,000 to $1,500 and a motion was made for concurrence in the demand. Senator Paddock was on his feet in an instant and opposed most vigorously such a proceeding. He said the senate had adopted the amendment making the increase by an overwhelming majority and it was not the duty or privilege of the senate conferees to concur in a motion to recede and strike out. He said the salaries ought to and must be increased. His speech had the effect of retaining the provisions in the bill for another conference.
By direction of the secretary of war, Second Lieutenant Frederick R. Day, signal corps, will proceed to the following points and make thorough inspection of the signal service stations located thereat in accordance with such special instructions as he may receive from the chief signal service: Pueblo, Montrose, Colorado Springs, and Denver, Cole, Cheyenne, Wyo., and North Platte, Neb. Lieutenant Day is authorized to inspect and to condemn and destroy, if found worthless, such unserviceable signal service property at the stations visited (and for which he is not responsible) as may need the action of an inspector.
A post office has been established in Banner County and named Heath, after the correction of TUB But. Samuel U. Sweeney has been appointed postmaster, A. Thompson is to be postmaster at Elk Valley, Joseph Pendleton at Simpson, Edward L. Simmons at Manchester, and Kate F. Hayford at Belgrave. A post office at Warren, Madison County to be discontinued.
The senate committee vision has instructed Senator Paddock to introduce his bill to pension widow of General Crook at $1,200 per year. His bill proposes a pension of $3,000.
The president has approved an act granting to the Chicago, Kansas Pacific railroad company power to sell all of its property and franchises in the Indian territory to the Atchison, Topeka and Pacific railroad company.
This evening's Star says: "For turpitude of Indiana uses an umbrella to shield the sun's rays off his superheated form. Yesterday morning he forgot to take it down when he entered the capitol and was in consequence an object of no little attention. He discovered his absent-mindedness at the door of the senate chamber."
Ho said he had already been asked by his lawyer for money to carry on the suit and that he did not see his way clear to get out even. "I don't believe he has received money or that he expected to make a cent, except to protect his ten shares of stock," other people differ from Mr. Beck. It was always claimed by W.C. Goudy that Charlton's suit was nothing but a "tackle jobbing" scheme. The street reporters have it that Charlton has all along been the agent of Sid Kent in the manipulation of a gigantic deal in Chicago Gas and that his suit was in Kent's interest, and that Kent now comes out of the transaction with a cool million made by the decline when a receiver was appointed and the rebound now to increased points.
TIMES SOUTHERN AREA.
Civil Engineers May Throw a Squabble Over the Johnstown Flood.
PITTSBURGH, Pa., June 27. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] There are prospects of some lively times during the convention of civil engineers now in session at Cresson Springs over the action of the committee appointed almost a year ago to investigate in regard to the condition of the South Fork dam before the Johnstown flood. The committee investigated the matter thoroughly and sealed its report, but did not hand the latter in at the last meeting of the society held in January. The reason given by the committee was that they did not desire to become involved in the litigation over the flood pending then. At the present meeting, the committee has given it out generally that no report will be made unless it is forced by the society. The sealed report is said to contain some highly interesting data concerning the condition of the South Fork dam, prior to the flood. It is stated on good authority that the report states that the dam was structurally as perfect as it could be made, evidenced by the circumstance that at the time of the flood a foot of water poured over the dam for two hours, and that when at last the dam broke it did so from the top. It is said that the report will further state that a large waste weir might have prevented the flood. Many members of the society are already clamoring for the report and many stories are current. The report will be in order Saturday, when the business session will be held.
SOUTH AMERICAN PEACE.
An Offensive and Defensive Alliance Against Chile.
NEW YORK, June 27. (Special Telegram to THE BEE.) An offensive and defensive alliance has been entered into between Brazil, Peru and the Argentine Republic against Chile by secret treaty. The object is an attack upon Chile. The news is so generally believed that the Chilean government is said to be making big preparations. This word was received here yesterday by mail from the Argentine Republic. In confirmation of this news is an article in the Parvenla Militia, the organ of the Argentine army, which says: "Chile without doubt believes that someone once desires to wrest from it the territory it acquired and which has produced good rents since it was taken from Bolivia and Peru despite the efforts made, particularly by the former nation, on battlefields. By thus acting Chile proves that it is somehow unquiet respecting the deeds, which have not yet been qualified by history, and that in hostile and well prepared attitude it awaits judgment. Happily, however, the interests of the whole of South America are higher than those of Chile and an effort is being made to check its advance. The Argentine Republic, true to the traditions of friendship for its neighbors and the United States of Brazil, in union with Peru, if minors are to be believed, have celebrated a defensive alliance in order to insure the maintenance of peace in this portion of the world and to let all know that any attempt to disturb the peace will promptly be met. This judicious policy, whilst opening new fields for thought and speculation, also gives origin to new hopes and serves as a loyal and certain security that tranquility will not be disturbed." Judging from this treaty we feel pleasure at being able to state that the Argentine-Brazilian-Peruvian alliance is bound to be productive of good results and to check the repetition of that violation of international rights which all have seen has resulted from the last war on the Pacific coast.
The Knights of Pythias at Milwaukee.
MILWAUKEE, Wis., June 27. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] The coming semi-annual conclave of the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, promises to be the most imposing of any that this growing order has yet experienced. The reunion differs from all preceding ones from the fact that the members of the order will go into camp under the same regulations and restrictions as govern the various state militias. The location selected for the camp, which has been named Camp Cumming, in honor of the founder of this branch of the order, and its very able commander-in-chief, Chancellor James R. Cumming of Indianapolis, Ind., is near the Cold Spring mark, in the northwestern part of the city. It extends from Milwaukee to Western avenues on Highland boulevard.
Three Drowned.
JOLIET, Ill., June 27, [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] Three Italian quarrymen named John Stancher, Joseph Stancher and Michael Millinsky were taken with cramps and drowned this evening while bathing in a deserted quarry filled with fifteen feet of water.
Two Little Girls Killed.
FAIRFIELD, Mass., June 27. Two little girls named Harrington were killed by a railroad train at Somersett this morning.
IN THE SLOUGH OF DESPOND,
Central Traffic Lines Forced to Drag Their Rates in the Mire.
RELIEF AT THE RESULT OF THE STRIKE,
Eastern Officiates Congratulate That, the Illinois Continental
Have Won on the Philadelphia
Involved.
CHICAGO, June 27. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] The slough of despond was reached today by central traffic lines when, they met the Wabash-Central Pacific rate of 80 cents on dressed beef, Chicago to Boston. This reduction was accompanied with a reduction to 18 cents on live cattle. The tall has now verily gone with the hide, for both these rates are non-paying. The 70-cent rate on dressed beef and 10 cents on cattle marked the line where the traffic could be made to yield expenses. Should the rates go lower the efforts of all lines will be to shove the traffic upon their neighbors. The Wabash-Central Pacific line has come in out of the wet by making contracts with a number of shippers whereby they get their business at 80 cents whether rates go lower or not.
The Grand Trunk has probably made the same kind of contracts. The Wabash-Central combination has worked its argument for a differential rate by claiming to make better time than any of its competitors and it is well known the Canadian Pacific can make a paying rate further below than is possible in the United States.
The argument for a differential has always been a poorly equipped or longer route and the central traffic lines are laying in ammunition whereby to light the Wabash in future on account of its assuming the right to make a differential rate while, at the same time, claiming to be a part of the best route to New England.
A Preliminary Meeting.
CHICAGO, June 27. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] A preliminary meeting of the western lines will be held in the morning to consider the steps necessary to carrying out the advance in rates to be reported to a general meeting next Wednesday by Messrs. Newman, Bird and Sage. The plan has been so amended as to include an advance to the old basis of every western freight rate except the eastbound rates on grain from Kansas and Nebraska and the proportion of the through rate from Chicago to St. Paul on business from the seaboard.
The only hitch in the proceedings comes in right here. It is impossible to raise this proportional rate on account of lake and Canadian Pacific competition.
The divergence will be presented of a 90 cent rate, Chicago to St. Paul, and a 71 cent all rail rate from New York to St. Paul. Such a difference was once declared discriminatory and illegal by Chairman Cooley of the interstate commerce commission. Should there be an objection, however, it will be argued that it is compelled by late and foreign competition. Should the advance to 90 cents to St. Paul be made, there will be opposition to a 75 cent rate to the river.
The effect of the low rate and Canadian rates is felt as far south as Sioux City, however, and a compromise of a 65 or 70 cent local rate to that point is being canvassed. If this compromise is not affected, it will be because the lines to St. Paul with branches west of the Mississippi, agree to ignore the long and short haul clause in case local rates to St. Paul are not raised.
Relief at the End of the Strike.
CHICAGO, June 30. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] But one opinion was expressed among Chicago railroad men on the termination of the Illinois Central strike. All felt a personal relief as there was no knowing to what extent the strike might extend, but the main feeling was one of congratulation that the road had won on the principle involved. The men demanded the discharge of Superintendent Russell, an official distasteful to the strikers, but against whom the Illinois Central Corporation found no word of fault. Had the road yielded, it would have set a precedent which railroad men would have worked untold injury to the road in the future. The various brotherhoods among the employees had nothing to do with the beginning, continuance, or end of the strike.
Fixing Up Rates.
NEW York, June 27. A meeting of the trunk line presidents was held today to devise means for putting an end to rate cutting and to fix upon a scale for east-bound rates. At 10 o'clock they took a recess and announced that the matter was settled so far as they were concerned. It was referred to the Central traffic association and that body was instructed to call a meeting at the earliest possible date and dispose of the matter.
CROWE GETS SIX YEARS,
The Jury Failed to Consider the Issue of Insanity.
CHICAGO, June 27. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] Patrick Crowe will spend six years at Joliet for his murderous attempt on the life of Policeman Lavinello on March 8. So decided the Jury which tried the case this afternoon, and it did not take them half an hour after receiving the instructions of the court to read their verdict.
"The plea of insanity did not make any impression on any of us," said one of the jurors. The young prisoner heard the verdict without apparent concern, and his wife, who was present, did not seem to be any more moved, but his sister, Mrs. William Vaughan, wept bitterly.
Chinese Vessel Burned.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., June 27. Chinese advices state that the steamer Peaching, which left Shanghai for Hankow, was burned on the Tangtse river May 28, and Captain Place, Second Engineer Wilson, and some twenty natives are missing and are supposed to have perished.
A mutiny occurred on board the Chinese steel cruiser Nan Yang, one of the Nan Yang squadron lying at Woo Sung on June 27 ult. The captain refused to allow native sailors more than half pay, as the vessel was at anchor undergoing repairs. Commodore Wu, with a detachment of soldiers from the fort nearby, went on board, but the sailors fell on the soldiers and drove them from the vessel and stabbed three of them. The sailors then locked up the commodore and captain and proceeded to have a festive time. They subsequently released the officers and the commodore caused fifteen of the ringleaders to be sent ashore and summarily dealt with.
The Dowager Queen of Korea died June 4, aged eighty years.
The Pekin Gazette reports serious trouble between Chinese and Koreans on the Yalu river concerning the rights of Koreans to cut timber there. Several lives were lost.
Toronto Heat in Chicago.
Chicago, June 27. The intensely hot weather which has prevailed in Chicago and vicinity since Sunday last still continues and today bids fair to even excel the previous days of the week. On the streets, the thermometers stand about 88. There have been thus far six deaths from sunstroke, including two this morning, and a large number of cases, which have not proved fatal.
Herbert Beecher Acquitted.
SEATTLE, Wash., June 28. Herbert F. Beecher, son of the late Henry Ward Beecher, has been acquitted in the United States district court on the charge of larceny in abstracting a book from the records of the customs house at Port Townsend while he was collector of customs. The case has been trying more than a year. | 27 |

Consideration of the election bill then ro-
mimcd , Mr. Ilaugcn of Wisconsin addressing
the hOuSe In support of the mca.sure. IIo de
clared it did not propose to touch state elec
tions , but did propose to supervise national
elections u clear right of congiess. The bill
wns not local but general In its application.
Mr. Covert of New York said the bill was
evidence of the dlstrdst felt by republicans
Of n government of nnd for the p-ople. The
Republican party was used to meeting cmer-
rencles. They met them in Indiana when
they sent 1n IJorscy with his money and
Dudley with his floaters nnd blocks of
ilve , and Quay , the nrch-angcl
of the party. The bill was
intended to undo the work of the fathers of
the constitution. This proposition was to
In-ing back the returning boards of Florida

commission duys'tlmt every patriotic man
would forget if no could. If it were true , as
Intelligent men predicted , that the passage of
this bill would have a tendency to revive race
lircjudlce in the south nnd restore the south
ern states to the condition of reconstruction
imys , If this were true , then it would turn
back the hands upon the dial and retard the
progress of these sections and of the whole
republic.
Mr. Flower of New York denounced the
bill as undemocratic , unropubllcan nnd un-
American , us a measure constructed upon the
idea that tlio small republican majority now
Sn congress could hotter legislate for the peo-
jilo than the people themselves.
Mr. Flower The history of the political
jwrsecutions of some of our federal courts
already lank with the um-criipulous abuse of
Jaw and this bill , if passed , would add many
inoro such chapters. It sought to provoke a
conflict between state and federal olllt-crs and
never before in the history of tlio country
had there been such a Jumblp of local and
federal functions in any law. An attempt to
control officers in the discharge of duties is
dangerous und a threatening incursion into
the domain of local helf-govcrnment. The
republican party had chosen a mint inappro
priate time to enact a law interfering with
local control of elections. The last presi
dential election with the blocks of lire and
its multifarious methods of doubtful pro
priety had aroused the iwojilo to a sense of
the danger that beset thu elective franchise.
Jt is best to leuvo this subject to bo dealt
with bv public conscience in the states.
Mr. Smvser of Ohio said that the cost in
curred by"the measure had been greatly cx-
nggerated. Inspectors would not bp necessary
iu Iho great majority of the districts. The
cry of the south was that it wanted to be left
alone to work Its own destiny. That had
been tried for fifteen yours , and ho protested
nguinst It seeking to work out thcsah ation of
the north on the same lino. What the south
wanted was to bo let alone to appropriate the
negroes' rights and do with the blacic man as
it pleased. IIo protested against that.
Mr. V'lux of Pennsylvania said the bill
virtually overtuined the constitution and de
stroyed onr form of government. This bill
mudo slaves of men to federal onlcers. Our
forefather : } brought on the revolutionary
war and separated from Great Ilritnlu because -
cause they ( lid not believe in taxation with
out representation. Ho warned congress
that the time might como when legislation
depriving tlio people of rt-prcjontution would
drive them to another revolt for the same
principle. [ Loud democratic applause. ]
Mr. ICennoy of Ohio said it was idle to say
that thu majority had ruled in this country ,
and tlmt fact was a splendid illustration of
the patience of the people when it was con
sidered that the ballot box had been trampled
under foot for the purpose of defeating the
majority of tlio people in the exercise of their
right. It was all pretense that drover Cleve
land was subject to the further statement
that at that election n largo number of qual
ified voters who had c.ast their votes against
him wore not permitted to do so. The consti
tution was mandatory in requiring a reduc
tion of representation iu case the states which
permitted the rights of citizens to vote to bo
unlawfully abridged. When the apportion
ment was made under the new census it was
tlio duty of congress to make this reduction
in the case of these southern states if they
persisted in depriving their citiyens of
the rights of suffrage. The ignorant black
'nan was unworthy to exercise the right of
sutTrago. Let him bo stricken from the list
entitled to representation and with him lot
the Ignorant white man bo stricken from the
list also. If Ignorance was the rock of dan
ger to us It was our duty to erect light houses
of popular education.
At this point the conference report on legis
lation on the nppropriutlonblll was presented
nnd a further conference Ordered on some
minor points.
The speaker announced the appointment of
Messrs. Conger , Walker and Rl.md conferees
on the silver bill. Orders were entered setting

Nnw YOIIK , Juno 27. [ Special Telegram to
Tnr. Bir. : . ] U. O. Dun ft Co.'s Weekly Uo-
viewot Trade s.iys : While the voluino of
trade , as Indicated by special reports by bank
exchanges nt Interior cities and by railroad
turning * , continue * larger than In the same
month of any previous year , the prospect for
tlio future Is rondcrud loss satisfactory by in
dustrial hesitation , and by doubt in regard to
the monetary outlook. The Industrial hesita
tion results from the delay of legislation and
increased uncertainty regarding the outcome.
Wool is distinctly weaker In the Interior and
nt eastern markets , and n disposition Is shown
to meet the needs of manufacturers. Tills
uncertainty also affects estimates of the fu
ture demand for Iron , and so the continued
addition of now furnaces weakens that market.
Large transactions in structural iron and
rails have Ixjcu closed , but without strength
ening-prices , Cotton has declined Jf cent.
Wheat has fallen 1's ' ccuts , with hotter news
from the northwest , ojts % cent nnd lard and
hogs nr1 a shade weaker. Coffee Is steady ,
but oil has declined - ' \ \ cents. Haw supir Is
l-lli cent and crushed 3 $ cent lower and
further concessions on refined are expected.
The general level of prices Is lower , in
part because of n reaction from -the many
speculations which the prospect of unlimited
coinage engendered.
Business at other cities is well maintained
for the season , and the exceedingly confi
dent tone hitherto pi-ovaTUng docs not nt
all abate. If there are possibilities of disap
pointment thov do not seem to be realized us
yot. Boston notes n good deinahd and higher
prices for cotton nnd leather goods , a demand
for lumber and largo receipts for wool , which
tend to weaken tlio market at Philadelphia.
Coal is dull. Chicago continues confident of
u largo nnd profitable fall trade , and the sta
tistics of the board of Undo show an increase
over last year iu the grain business nnd in
seeds and a slight decrease in meats , but n
, gain of nearly 100 per cent In dressed beef ,
an increase in lard and n largo decrease In
butter.
The dry goods business exceeds last year's ,
and the prospects of the clothing trade for the
fall arc thoftght quite fluttering. St. Louis
reports trade in all lines nbovo tlio average.
Milwaukee notes excellent crop prospects
and a good business. St. Paul finds the situ
ation very encouraging and trade at Omaha
aud Denver is good. At Detroit business is
quiet , wool moving slowly because farmers
hold .for higher prices. An average business
is reported at Kansas City and no change at
Pittsburg , except that while iron mills are
fairly employed rails nro fl lower , aud glass
works arc closiug for the season.
In all the reports , either from the north or
south , there is a noteworthy absence
of complaint about collections , and
the money markets are fully
supplied , but the demand is quite active ut
St. Louis and Cleveland and pushes close
upon the supply nt Milwaukee , while it is
weak at Kansas City.
The money market is firmer at Boston nnd
Pittiburg.but plentifully supplied at Chicago
and easy at Philadelphia , and the coming
July disbursements nro expected to cause
greater ease everywhere.
The business failures occurring throughout
the country during the last seven days num
ber " 01 as compared with 199 last week. For
the corresponding week of 1839 the figures
were 213.

Text of the House Substitute for the
Senatu Measure.
W.sniNOTOJuno 27. Representative
Reed of Iowa lias prepared on behalf of the
judiciary committee the report on the bill
agreed on by tlie committee as a substitute
for the senate original package bill. It firat
points out the differences between the bills ,
the scnuto bill being applicable to n single
subject of commerce , intoxicating liquors ,
and the house bill being applicable to all arti
cles of commerce , Tlio report says that In the
opinion of the cpmmitteo all property which
has been imported into a state and kept for
sale there ought to bo subject for all pur
poses to the Jurisdiction of the state , and all
persons who pnffago in the traffic within the
state ought to bo subject to the rules which it
may enact for tlio regulation of that traffic.
The states are Iho proper judges of the needs
of their own cltWfts , and they ought to be free
to enact and cL'forcd'such laws as they may
deem best adapted to their situation and best
evolution.'H the prosperity and hap-
pmessof their people , and when a non-resident
imports his wares into a state and then en
gages in the traflio therein It is but just that
ho should be subject to the same restrictions
that govern the citizens of the state who
would engage in a like traffic , and this would
bo the effect of the bill if amended as rec
ommended by the committee. It would in no
manner interfere with the right of n citi/en
of the state to purchase abroad any nrtk-lo of
commerce which ho might desire for his own
use and hnvo the same transported aud de
livered to him nt his phico of residence. The
state would have no pownto prevent the
importation of any article of commerce nor
to obstruct commerce through their terri
tories except in the necessary enforcement
of their health laws. Its only effect would
bo to subject such property as may bo im
ported into a state and there held
or offered for sale contrary to the
laws of the state. The power of
congress to enact a law of this character
can hardly bo doubted , in the Judgment of
the committee. The report concludes that
It would bo much wiser to enact a general
law applicable to all articles of commerce
than to meet cii'oxlgcney with reference to
particular articles , as it may scorn to arise ,
as would bo tlio policy of tlio senate bill
should it bo enacted.

"Verdlet AVI1I Bo All
A startlingscnsatlon was sprung yesterday
afternoon in the district court cuso of Olson
ngulnstUioOuiulia packing company for 1,500
damages , un trial before Judge Clurkson.
Ralph W. Bivekcnrldgo of counsel for do-
foiulunt , addressing tlio court , said In sub
stance tluit Juror James Duffy No. 2" hud
visltod his ofllco and lutlinntod tlmt ho
would throw tbo cuso for his
( Breckonrldgo's ) sldo If n consldorutlon
was forthcoming. Tlio same Juror , ho said ,
lirul also similarly approached n friend of the
defendant wllh the same offer.
Air. Breckenridgo added that ho hoped that ,
ho would iiot bo forced by tlio court to ill-
vulgo tno man's niiuio and so disgrace him
forever , but that the whole jury ought to bo
excused.
Attorney Morenrty , for tlio plaintiff , do-
nuiuded the man's iiuinc , and the court seconded -
ended the demand.
Mr. Brcokenrldtjo , sr. , then sprang to his
feet and shaking his finger vehemently at
Juror Duffy , exclaimed :
"Tuat's the man I know not his namol
But I do know that ho e.uno to our olHce this
iioon and did Just us my son has sold 1"
Duffy turned pale ns death nnd attempted
to speak , but the judge commanded him to sit
down. Ho again attempted to reply , stating
tlmt ho had not gouo to Brcckonridgo's ofllco
with evil Intent , and the court told him that
if ho spoke again ho would bo lined.
Mr. C. F. Brockenridgo said that Duffy
had been to his ofllco twice that day , aud ho
knew that he had no business there.
The court then asked JJulTy If he had vis
ited Mr. Breekenridge'H oIUcc , and the Juror
exclaimed thnt ho went only to the door , that
ho did not go inside , nnd that ho went there
merely to see the New York Life buildIng -
Ing , which ho had never seen before.
Bieckonriclgo was the only man UUTO whom
ho knew , and ho thought lie would call upon
him. IIo claimed thnt ho p.issed no remark
to any one who was there , and that ho had
iiavor asked them for money , and that ho
didn't think there was any harm hi going
there. Ho tlieu admitted that ho had had a
talk with Mr. Brcckenridge.
The court asked him if lie had not heard
him [ the Judge ] enjoin the Jurors from talk
ing about the case.
Duffy admitted that bo had , but that.nil
ho hod said to Breekonrulgo was an inquiry
us to whether the Judge would decide the
case'orlct it go to the jury , or words to
that effect. And then lie claimed ho had for
gotten what ho did say ,
The court said he was grieved more by the
case than he had been by anything that had
happened in the court.
Duffy .said it was the first time ho had been
accused of anything , and tlmt they had made
it worse than it really was , and that ho had
not called for the purpose of seeking monev.
The Judge said that it jurors wore to talk
to outsiders about the cases they were sitting
on all the trials in the court might as well ho
stopped. It was the first time the thing had
happened in his court , and hp would order
the withdrawal of the juror and continue the
case till the next term.
Hfr. Rreckeni-ldg ( > 's Statement.
Mr. H. W. Breckcnrldgo was asked yester
day to state just what had passed between
Juror James DufTy and himself regarding the
case of Olsen against the packing company ,
lie said :
"This man Duffy came to our ofllco three or
four times during my absence. I saw him
afterwards at the court house , and lie said ho
wanted to see mo at noon , so I told him to
como to our oflico in the New York Life
building. At noon ho came into the ofllco and
In the presence of my partners , C. F. Brecken-
ridge and L. F. Crofoot , said ho wanted to
see me alone.
"I took him into the ne\troom , and the first
thing ho said was , 'I wonder what the judge
is going to do with that case. ' I told him the
question of iiogliirenco on the putt of the do-
lendant would go to the jury ,
"Ifo then asked mo wh.it 1 thought of the
jury. I said , 'That's n good jury.1
"Duffj then said , 'If that case goes to the
jury you ought to have a good friend on the
jury. ' Ho thmi suid ho was losing money by
being on the Jury.
"I then told him that i wanted him to do
what ho thought was right , and all I could
say was to follow the instructions of the
court and decide the case according to the
evidence.
"Duffy then said that if I would do some
thing for him ho would see that the verdict
was nil right.
'tf merely told him to do what ho thought
was right and ho loft the ofllce.
"It was then n few minutes DuforoS o'clock ,
nnd I consulted with my partners and wo con
cluded that the only proporniid honest coursO
to pursue was to bring tlio m.ittor to the at
tention of the court and the opposing counsel ,
which was done when court opened.
"Judge Clurkson said It was the first time
such a case had come before him as u judge ,
and lie consulted with .ludgo Douno as to the
best course to pursue. They concluded that
the host thing to do was to withdraw the
Jui or and continue the c.ise , and that was
done. "
. A great many comments wcro heard about
the court house yesterday on this matter. It
was the general opinion that the course pur
sued by the attorneys for the plalntltl was a
thoroughly honest and upright one , and re
flected giv.it credit on the firm , as the case
was one for personal damages brought by a
poor man against a wealthy corporation.

notoriety , lives at the corner of Fourteenth

Drs. Botta & Betts ,
1400 Douglas St. Oumhn , Nob. | CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS,
Consideration of the Federal Election Law
Resumed in the House.
ARGUMENTS AGAINST IT BY DEMOCRATS,
A Strict Party Vote Suspends the Hill for the Admission of Wyoming to
Benchmark.
WASHINGTON, June 27. In the house today Mr. Dockery entered a motion to reconsider the vote by which the postal clerks left it pending for the present. Consideration of the election bill then resumed, Mr. Haugen of Wisconsin addressing the house in support of the measure. He declared it did not propose to touch state elections, but did propose to supervise national elections as a clear right of congress. The bill was not local but general in its application.
Mr. Covert of New York said the bill was evidence of the distress felt by Republicans under a government of and for the people. The Republican party was used to meeting emergencies. They met them in Indiana when they sent in Bosses with their money and Dudley with his floaters and blocks of live, and Quay, the archangel of the party. The bill was intended to undo the work of the fathers of the constitution. This proposition was to turn back the returning boards of Florida and South Carolina the days of the electoral commission that every patriotic man would forget if he could. If it were true, as intelligent men predicted, that the passage of this bill would have a tendency to revive racial prejudice in the south and restore the southern states to the condition of reconstruction days, then it would turn back the hands upon the dial and retard the progress of these sections and of the whole republic.
Mr. Flower of New York denounced the bill as undemocratic, unRepublican and un-American, as a measure constructed upon the idea that the small Republican majority now in congress could better legislate for the people than the people themselves.
Mr. Flower: The history of the political persecutions of some of our federal courts already stands with the unscrupulous abuse of law, and this bill, if passed, would add many more such chapters. It sought to provoke a conflict between state and federal officers and never before in the history of the country had there been such a jumble of local and federal functions in any law. An attempt to control officers in the discharge of their duties is dangerous and a threatening incursion into the domain of local self-government. The republican party had chosen an inappropriate time to enact a law interfering with local control of elections. The last presidential election with the blocks of fire and its multifarious methods of doubtful propriety had aroused the people to a sense of the danger that beset the elective franchise. It is best to leave this subject to be dealt with by public conscience in the states.
Mr. Savager of Ohio said that the cost incurred by the measure had been greatly exaggerated. Inspectors would not be necessary in the great majority of the districts. The cry of the south was that it wanted to be left alone to work its own destiny. That had been tried for fifteen years, and he protested against it seeking to work out the action of the north on the same line. What the south wanted was to be let alone to appropriate the negroes' rights and do with the white man as it pleased. He protested against that.
Mr. Vaux of Pennsylvania said the bill virtually overturned the constitution and destroyed our form of government. This bill made slaves of men to federal officers. Our forefathers brought on the revolutionary war and separated from Great Britain because they did not believe in taxation without representation. He warned congress that the time might come when legislation depriving the people of representation would drive them to another revolt for the same principle. [Loud democratic applause.]
Mr. Kenney of Ohio said it was idle to say that the majority had ruled in this country, and that fact was a splendid illustration of the patience of the people when it was considered that the ballot box had been trampled under foot for the purpose of defeating the majority of the people in the exercise of their right. It was all pretense that Cleveland was subject to further statement that at that election a large number of qualified voters who had cast their votes against him were not permitted to do so. The constitution was mandatory in requiring a reduction of representation in case the states which permitted the rights of citizens to vote were unlawfully abridged. When the apportionment was made under the new census it was the duty of congress to make this reduction in the case of these southern states if they persisted in depriving their citizens of the rights of suffrage. The ignorant black man was unworthy to exercise the right of suffrage. Let him be stricken from the list entitled to representation and with him let the ignorant white man be stricken from the list also. If ignorance was the rock of danger to us, it was our duty to erect lighthouses of popular education.
At this point the conference report on legislation on the appropriations bill was presented and a further conference ordered on some minor points.
The speaker announced the appointment of Messrs. Conger, Walker and Reed conferences on the silver bill. Orders were entered setting apart Saturday and Monday nights for debate on the election bill.
WASHINGTON, June 27. In the senate today consideration of the bill for the admission of Wyoming as a state was resumed and Mr. Morgan began an address in opposition to it.
Messrs. Payne and Gray argued against the hill and Mr. Pitt favored it.
The question was taken on Mr. Jones' substitute (the enabling act for Wyoming, Idaho, Arizona, and New Mexico), and it was rejected by a strict party vote: yeas, 21; nays, 21.
Mr. Jones of Arkansas then moved as a substitute the enabling act for Wyoming only and it was rejected by exactly the same vote.
The bill then passed by a strict party vote: yeas, 28; nays, 16. The bill declares Wyoming a state and the constitution which the people of Wyoming formed for themselves is accepted, ratified, and confirmed. The state is entitled to one representative in the Fifty-First congress. The other sections refer to public lands, provisions for schools, agricultural colleges, etc.
The bill for the admission of Idaho went over as unfinished business till Monday next.
After an executive session the senate adjourned.

DUN'S REVIEW OF THE WEEK
Money Market Firm, with Prospects of
Still Greater Growth.
FLATTERING EVIDENCES ON EVERY HAND.
Chicago Confident of Large Profitable Trade
Trado and Nearly All Large Cities
Find the Election Very New YORK, June 27. [Special Telegraph to
The Bar.] U. O. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: While the volume of
trade, as indicated by special reports by bank exchanges at interior cities and by railroad
turning, continues larger than in the same month of any previous year, the prospect for
the future is rendered less satisfactory by industrial hesitation, and by doubt in regard to
the monetary outlook. The industrial hesitation results from the delay of legislation and
increased uncertainty regarding the outcome.
Wool is distinctly weaker in the interior and at eastern markets, and a disposition is shown
to meet the needs of manufacturers. This uncertainty also affects estimates of the future
demand for iron, and so the continued addition of new furnaces weakens that market.
Large transactions in structural iron and rails have been closed, but without strengthening
prices. Cotton has declined 1 cent. Wheat has fallen 1-2 cents, with better news
from the northwest, and oil is steady, but sugar is 1-2 cent and crushed 3-2 cent lower and
further concessions on refined are expected.
The general level of prices is lower, in part because of a reaction from the many
speculations which the prospect of unlimited coinage engendered.
Business at other cities is well maintained for the season, and the exceedingly confident tone
hitherto proving does not at all abate. If there are possibilities of disappointment they do
not seem to be realized as yet. Boston notes a good demand and higher prices for cotton
and leather goods, a demand for lumber and large receipts for wool, which tend to
weaken the market at Philadelphia. Coal is dull. Chicago continues confident of a large
and profitable fall trade, and the statistics of the board of Trade show an increase over last
year in the grain business and in seeds and a slight decrease in meats, but a gain of nearly
100 per cent in dressed beef, an increase in lard and a large decrease in butter.
The dry goods business exceeds last year's, and the prospects of the clothing trade for the
fall are thought quite flattering. St. Louis reports trade in all lines above the average.
Milwaukee notes excellent crop prospects and a good business. St. Paul finds the situation very encouraging and trade at Omaha and Denver is good. At Detroit business is quiet, wool moving slowly because farmers hold for higher prices. An average business is reported at Kansas City and no change at Pittsburgh, except that while iron mills are fairly employed rails are lower, and glass works are closing for the season.
In all the reports, either from the north or south, there is a noteworthy absence of complaint about collections, and the money markets are fully supplied, but the demand is quite active at St. Louis and Cleveland and pushes close upon the supply at Milwaukee, while it is weak at Kansas City.
The money market is firmer at Boston and Pittsburgh, but plentifully supplied at Chicago and easy at Philadelphia, and the coming July disbursements are expected to cause greater ease everywhere.
The business failures occurring throughout the country during the last seven days number 01 as compared with 199 last week. For the corresponding week of 1839 the figures were 213.

BOSTON, Mass., June 27. [Special Telegram to The Bar.] There is no material change to notice in wool. The sales have been small, amounting to only a little over 2,000,000 pounds. Prices have been weak under the circulation of new wool and the indifference of manufacturers. There have been sales of new Ohio at 30c and of XX at 34c, but dealers feel that these prices cannot be obtained when the stocks are larger. Michigan X has opened at 30c, with buyers bidding 25c. No. 1 Ohio combing sold at 40c and Michigan at 35c@36c, Ohio line decline at 85@80c and Michigan at 85c@75c.

Foreign wools are generally quiet and unchanged in price.
STRIKE SITUATION.
Now York Cloak Makers in a Difficult Condition Without Food.
NEW YORK, June 27. [Special Telegram to The Bar.] A few days ago it was thought that the cloak makers' strike was ended. Now 2,000 people are starving. The men are so weakened by hunger that they stagger as they walk and their famished children are crying in vain for bread. Of the 10,000 idle people, some are barely able to live, but others are dependent on charity and have lived for days on bread and water only. Men with gaunt and haggard faces and eyes wild from hunger were seen by the scores by reporters around Pythagoras hall. Prof. Garside, president of the cloak makers' union, has made a strong appeal to other organizations for aid, which has been responded to, but there are so many people without food that the money obtained is only a drop in the bucket.
Prof. Garside was seen yesterday afternoon and described the condition of things as deplorable. "We can only assist the very worst cases," he said. "It is the best we can do. We give $3 a week for a family. Some of the people are living on credit while others have pawned everything they could lay their hands on."
Platform Men Still on Strike.
ST. Louis, Mo., June 27. The strike of platform men in East St. Louis is still on and there seems to be no immediate prospect of a settlement between the men and officials. All railroad property in East St. Louis is carefully guarded by watchmen and there is a large police force on duty.

Strikers Resume Work at Cairo.
CAIRO, III., June 27. The Illinois Central strikers resumed work here today and trains are being made up.
A Sensational Suit Involving a Picture of Ill-Repute.
LAUNIE, Wyo., June 27. [Special Telegram to The Bar.] A sensational lawsuit has been instituted, involving the property occupied by Monty Grover, on Grand avenue, as a place of ill-repute. The place was owned years ago by Della Bailey, who committed suicide. John A. Grover, formerly a prominent saloonkeeper here, had previously married the Bailey woman, and upon her death he married the woman now known as Monty Grover. It now transpires that the Bailey woman had been married before coming here and had never been divorced. She deserted her husband at Lincoln, Neb., After eight years he now brings suit to recover the woman's property, claiming that he, and not Grover, is the rightful heir. The alleged deserted husband is Uriah Branch, now Northern Pacific yardmaster at St. Paul, Minn. The property involved, with rents, amounts to $60,000.

A Terrible Death,
DES MOINES, Iowa, June 27. [Special Telegram to The Bar.] James B. Stevens, noted about midnight, met a terrible death in this city today. 'About a week ago he became annoyed with some night cuticle disease, and sent to a drugist to procure some corrosive sublimate, which he applied to the afflicted parts of his body. At first he applied a mixture of lard, but this compound not having the desired effect, he applied the sublimate free from any fixative. Burning of the flesh began immediately, and his skin was horribly swollen which overtook the drug had been applied. Physicians were unable to relieve his sufferings. His parents live at Spring Hill, Warren county. He had worked in a Des Moines buggy factory and was for a time news agent on the Des Moines & Fort Dodge road, running between Burlington and the latter point.
Shortage of Water.
SIOUX CITY, Iowa, June 27. [Special Telegram to The Bar.] The failure of the water supply of this city has become an alarming fact. Today water could not be had regularly above the second stories of buildings down town, and it also failed in the residential portions of the city that are upon the higher levels. Some insurance companies have already given orders to their agencies here to cancel policies. The city has simply outgrown the capacity of the water supply, which is drawn from artesian wells and the system of service pipes. The hot weather of the past days has caused an unusual consumption. The city council has already ordered the enlargement of the water system, but it will require some time. In the meantime water will have to be shut off from elevators and the supply to lawns limited.
The Farmers and Settlers.
DES MOINES, Iowa, June 27. [Special Telegram to The Bar.] At a meeting of the Des Moines river land settlers at Lehigh, resolutions were adopted positively denying that any claim had "been made for indemnity or that any such had been filed to recover the money paid for the lands to the government. They say it will be time enough for indemnity when they are beaten in the supreme court of the United States, where the case can be tried for the first time, on its merits.
A Sioux City Bond Suit.
Sioux CITY, Iowa, June 27. [Special Telegram to The Bar.] Suit was instituted today to restrain the city government from delivering $275,000 of city bonds to the purchasers thereof, C. H. Warner & Co. of New York. The ground of the suit is the alleged unconstitutionality of the special act of the legislature under which the bonds are issued.
It is understood that the suit is brought at the instance of the purchasers of the bonds. Overcome by the heat, MUSCATINE, Iowa, June 27. [Special Telegraph to The Desk.] A section boss at Anniston was overcome by heat yesterday and died last night. THE ORIGINAL MUCHELAGE. Text of the House Substitute for the Senate Measure. WASHLINGTON June 27. Representative Reed of Iowa has prepared on behalf of the judiciary committee the report on the bill agreed on by the committee as a substitute for the senate original package bill. It first points out the differences between the bills, the senate bill being applicable to a single subject of commerce, intoxicating liquors, and the house bill being applicable to all articles of commerce. The report says that in the opinion of the committee all property which has been imported into a state and kept for sale there ought to be subject for all purposes to the jurisdiction of the state, and all persons who pass through the traffic within the state ought to be subject to the rules which it may enact for the regulation of that traffic. The states are the proper judges of the needs of their own citizens, and they ought to be free to enact and enforce such laws as they may deem best adapted to their situation and best evolution for the prosperity and happiness of their people, and when a non-resident imports his wares into a state and then engages in the traffic therein it is but just that he should be subject to the same restrictions that govern the citizens of the state who would engage in a like traffic, and this would be the effect of the bill if amended as recommended by the committee. It would in no manner interfere with the right of a citizen of the state to purchase abroad any article of commerce which he might desire for his own use and have the same transported and delivered to him at his place of residence. The state would have no power to prevent the importation of any article of commerce nor to obstruct commerce through their territories except in the necessary enforcement of their health laws. Its only effect would be to subject such property as may be imported into a state and there held or offered for sale contrary to the laws of the state. The power of congress to enact a law of this character can hardly be doubted, in the judgment of the committee. The report concludes that it would be much wiser to enact a general law applicable to all articles of commerce than to meet exigencies with reference to particular articles, as it may soon to arise, as would be the policy of the senate bill should it be enacted.
THE AMENDATORY INTERCESSION IN Northern Democratic Congressmen Prepare a Formal Protest. WASHLINGTON, June 27. Northern democratic members of the lower house have prepared a formal protest against the national election bill, which is termed the "Extraordinary, dangerous and revolutionary measure now proposed by the leaders of the party in the House." The protest says: "The power claimed by the majority resides in the constitution, which we deny, the republic has gone through the difficulties of a formative period, made a heroic struggle against dissolution, triumphed and successfully readjusted itself to the changed condition without the overselves of such power by the federal government for 100 years and over. The bill is purely a partisan measure, intended primarily to control elections for congress and presidential electors in all the states and intimidate, hinder, obstruct and harass by political persecutions in unfriendly hands adverse minorities in cities of the north. To carry out this scheme of improper government millions of dollars will be taxed from our people and the judiciary of the United States prostituted to the basest party purposes in the management of elections. Against these invasions of the liberties of our people there will be left for safety to partisan juries in federal courts, composed entirely of members of the party in power." The protest appeals to all northern freemen without regard to party to enter a timely protest by way of a public meeting or otherwise against this consolidation of the government, the destruction of popular rights and the very foundation of American liberty, as this vicious and unpatriotic measure is the most serious menace to the very life of the republic. The issue is, shall a major political party elect itself and keep in power its paid agents who are to control political solutions in all the states? A change of house was issued yesterday to Anthony Wright and Sarah Arnott, both of Omaha. Mrs. Turney sold beer to the people of West Point without first having procured a license so to do. Yesterday she was taken before Judge Dudley, where she was fined $11 and costs. Lola, the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Donaldson of Giuma, died Thursday of cholera infantum in Kansas City, where the mother was visiting. The funeral will take place today at 1 p. m. from the residence, 916 Emmhausen street, this city. William Poppleton, one of the soldiers convicted of making a false assault on Lorne, Holinger, was sentenced by Judge Dundee to imprisonment until July 3. In passing this sentence the judge said that all he had heard about the character of the Holingers in the case was commands, which rather than the contrary was true of the victim. A VERY UNRELIABLE "PEER" James Duffy, a Juror, Talks About a Case on Trial and is Removed, HE IS CENSURED BY THE COURT, He Suggests to Counsel That If Someone- had Done for Him the "Verdict Will Be All Right" A startling sensation was sprung yesterday afternoon in the district court case of Olson against the Omaha packing company for $1,500 damages, on trial before Judge Clarkson. Ralph W. Breckenridge of counsel for defendant, addressing the court, said in substance that Juror James Duffy No. 2 had visited his office and litten that he would throw the case for the defendant's side if a consideration was forthcoming. The same juror, he said, had also similarly approached a friend of the defendant with the same offer. Mr. Breckenridge added that he hoped that he would not be forced by the court to divulge the man's name and so disgrace him forever, but that the whole jury ought to be excused. Attorney Morentry, for the plaintiff, demanded the man's name, and the court seconded the demand. Mr. Breckenridge, sr., then sprang to his feet and shaking his finger vehemently at Juror Duffy, exclaimed: "That's the man I know not his name but I do know that he came to our office this noon and did just as my son has sold him." Duffy turned pale as death and attempted to speak, but the judge commanded him to sit down. He again attempted to reply, stating that he had not gone to Breckenridge's office with evil intent, and the court told him that if he spoke again he would be fined. Mr. C. F. Breckenridge said that Duffy had been to his office twice that day, and he knew that he had no business there. The court then asked the jury if he had visited Mr. Breckenridge's office, and the juror exclaimed that he went only to the door, that he did not go inside, and that he went there merely to see the New York Life building, which he had never seen before. Breckenridge was the only man whom he knew, and he thought he would call upon him. He claimed that he passed no remark to any one who was there, and that he had even asked them for money, and that he didn't think there was any harm in going there. He then admitted that he had had a talk with Mr. Breckenridge. The court asked him if he had not heard him [the Judge] enjoin the jurors from talking about the case.
Duffy admitted that he had, but that he had said to Breckenridge was an inquiry as to whether the Judge would decide the case or let it go to the jury, or words to that effect. And then he claimed he had forgotten what he did say.
The court said he was grieved more by the case than he had been by anything that had happened in the court.
Duffy said it was the first time he had been accused of anything, and that they had made it worse than it really was, and that he had not called for the purpose of seeking money.
The Judge said that if jurors were to talk to outsiders about the cases they were sitting on, all the trials in the court might as well stop. It was the first time the thing had happened in his court, and he would order the withdrawal of the juror and continue the case till the next term.
Mr. Breckenridge's Statement.
Mr. H. W. Breckenridge was asked yesterday to state just what had passed between Juror James Duffy and himself regarding the case of Olsen against the packing company.
He said:
"This man Duffy came to our office three or four times during my absence. I saw him afterwards at the courthouse, and he said he wanted to see me at noon, so I told him to come to our office in the New York Life building. At noon he came into the office and, in the presence of my partners, C. F. Breckenridge and L. F. Crofoot, said he wanted to see me alone.
"I took him into the next room, and the first thing he said was, 'I wonder what the judge is going to do with that case.' I told him the question of negligence on the part of the defendant would go to the jury.
"He then asked me what I thought of the jury. I said, 'That's a good jury.'
"Duffy then said, 'If that case goes to the jury, you ought to have a good friend on the jury.' He then said he was losing money by being on the jury.
"I then told him that I wanted him to do what he thought was right, and all I could say was to follow the instructions of the court and decide the case according to the evidence.
"Duffy then said that if I would do something for him, he would see that the verdict was all right.
"I merely told him to do what he thought was right and he left the office.
"It was then about five minutes of six o'clock, and I consulted with my partners and we concluded that the only proper honest course to pursue was to bring the matter to the attention of the court and the opposing counsel, which was done when court opened.
"Judge Clarkson said it was the first time such a case had come before him as a judge, and he consulted with Judge Down as to the best course to pursue. They concluded that the best thing to do was to withdraw the juror and continue the case, and that was done."
A great many comments were heard about the courthouse yesterday on this matter. It was the general opinion that the course pursued by the attorneys for the plaintiff was a thoroughly honest and upright one, and reflected great credit on the firm, as the case was one for personal damages brought by a poor man against a wealthy corporation.
James Duffy, the juror who has attained notoriety, lives at the corner of Fourteenth and Pierce.
Mr. O. F. Breckenridge was highly incensed at Daily's portfolio and scored him severely after court had adjourned.
District Court.
Answers were filed yesterday in the case of the seven republican councilmen, Shively, Olson, McLeurto, Blumer, Davis, Wheeler and Chaffee, against THE BIR; publishing company for $10,000 each. The answers admit the publication of the article of May 31, to which objection is made by the plaintiffs, but deny that the language is susceptible of the meaning sought to be placed upon it. It is further denied that the article was published with the intention of injuring the plaintiffs in their good name or depriving them of the honors or profits of their offices as councilmen.
It is further stated that the facts as set forth in said article were true in substance and were common rumors in the city before their publication.
The fact that a combination was formed by these seven republicans and five democratic members of the council is stated to be true in substance and in fact. The democratic members of this combine, namely, O'Connor, Morearty, Oslhoff, Hudson and Cooper, it is charged, entered into an understanding whereby the offices were to be parcelled out among the friends of those in the combination. It is further alleged that it was commonly reported that this combination was brought about by bribery, in this, that money was paid to certain of these democratic members by patrons who were or expected to be contractors of the city, on work which was to be let out and awarded thereafter, and the combination was formed for the purpose of securing to said contractors the public work and contracts to be awarded by the council.
The answers set forth also that a portion of the members of the combination made every effort to secure the appointment of Birkhouser as chairman of the board of public works in order to more effectually control the patronage of the city.
In conclusion, it is stated that the article in question was published in a just commentary on the council acts of the plaintiffs, without malice or ill will, in good faith, for the purpose of protecting the city against what the defendant believed to be a combination formed for the purpose of defrauding the city, and the article was only published after a fair and impartial investigation as to the truth of the matter and things therein set forth, which the defendant was in duty bound to do as a newspaper.
It is denied that the plaintiffs have suffered damage in the sum of $10,000, or any other amount, and it is prayed that the case be dismissed.
David Whitney and others have sued the First National bank and the cold storage company for $1,529.12 in damages alleged to have been sustained by the plaintiffs because the cold storage company failed to keep their rooms in proper condition and allowed 1,200 cases of eggs and 60 tubs of butter to spoil.
General A. Morris has applied for a divorce from Edward T. Morris on the ground of drunkenness and cruelty. The parties were married in New Bedford, N.H., in May 1870.
Judge Wakeman heard the divorce case of Laura B. against Hiram L. Snodgrass. The ground on which the divorce is claimed is drunkenness and failure to support. The custody of the two children, aged twelve and fourteen years, is desired by the mother. The husband contested the case in a mild way and asked for the children.
Government Building Supplies.
The bids for furnishing the supplies for the government building have been opened, and the notice of the awards was received yesterday by W. H. Alexander, who is the custodian of the structure and all that is therein contained.

C. B. Havens & Co. will furnish 14 tons of coal, for which they will receive $1,024. The American waterworks company will supply the water, while the Kimball ice company will handle the ice, 2,600 pounds at 41 cents per cwt.
William Lyle Dickey & Co. secured the furnishing of the hardware and sundries, while Emerson Swearing will undertake to remove all ashes for the sum of $12. Mount Vernon will sprinkle the premises and for this they will receive $30.

Notwithstanding the fact that the mercury lingered about the nineties, the members of the Grand Army of the Republic posts, their wives, sons, and daughters, together with the Sons of Veterans and the members of the Woman's Relief corps, had a most enjoyable time at Goodrich hall last night. The affair was of a social nature, and the evening was devoted to singing old war songs and renewing acquaintances. During the evening a light lunch, consisting of lemonade, ice cream, and cake, was served.
The New White Lead Plant.
The Carter white lead company has decided to locate its plant on the land of the East Omaha Land Company. The works will be located on Locust avenue at Twenty-first street, which is about a mile and a quarter east of Sherman avenue. The company will occupy five acres of ground, which has been donated by the land company, together with a bonus of $20,000. The plant will be much larger than before, and will contain 115 cylinders whereas there were only seventy-five cylinders in the old works.
The land company will erect houses for the employees of the lead works.
A Notorious Crook.
Too Lockwood, the man who was convicted of stealing the Garnow diamonds and sentenced to be six years in the penitentiary, returned to Omaha last night and is being closely watched by the police. This man completed his term last month, and the first day after getting out, while walking along one of the streets in Lincoln, he lifted a pair of shoes, for which he got thirty days in the county jail.
A Victim of the Heat.
Elogealusan, a laborer, was overcome by the heat yesterday afternoon and at 8 o'clock last evening he was found lying in a vacant lot at Sixteenth and Nicholas streets. He was taken to his boarding house, at 1015 Howard Street, where he was attended by the city physician. The chances are largely against the man's recovery.
A New Time Card.
A new time card will go into effect on the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad tomorrow morning. By the change, the Sioux City accommodation will depart at 7 a.m. instead of at 8:10 as now. The St. Paul limited will leave five minutes later, its time out being 8:05 instead of 8 o'clock p.m., as under the present schedule.
The Church Lawn Festival.
The lawn festival at the residence of Mr. Thomas L. Kimball for the benefit of the church last night was one of the most enjoyable events of the season. The grounds were beautifully decorated, and the Union Pacific band furnished the music. About 150 people were on the grounds.
Forfeited Property.
William C. Terrin is in jail charged with disposing of mortgaged property. Some months ago he negotiated a loan through Phillip Smith, putting up as security a horse and buggy. Instead of paying the amount, Smith claims Terrin sold the property and converted the money to his own use.

Last November, the professor became involved in a difficulty with Thomas Gurrahun, which culminated in the arrest of Gurrahun for stealing. The latter thereupon announced his intention of breaking up the Dallas school, and obtained the affiants of some of the pupils to the effect that Johnson had been guilty of indecent exposure on different occasions to the young girls who attended his school, and had at other times attempted to deceive some of the boys under his care. Johnson was arrested for these alleged crimes, and he gave bail for appearance in court. In the meantime, the school board had dismissed him from its employ. About fifty witnesses testified, and the details of the testimony were revolting in the extreme. A number of those witnesses contradicted each other so flatly, however, that when the case went to the jury they promptly rendered a verdict of "not guilty," and placed the costs, amounting to $150, upon Gurrahun.
Guilty as Charged
Salt Lake City, June 27. [Special Telegram] In the Ted murder case, the jury returned a verdict of manslaughter against the defendant at 4 o'clock this morning. Defendant's attorneys will move for a new trial. Ted did not seem to be seriously affected by the decision of the jury. The limit of the penalty under this verdict is 11 years.
A Curious Delight in President Franklin
President Franklin of this plane owns a bay horse, known by the name of Shiloh, that is possessed of a peculiar accomplishment, such as Brooklyn, Mass., special telegram to the Philadelphia Times. Mr. Franklin's stable, a rather old building, is infested by mice that give the horses much trouble, stealing their food and making themselves pests generally. It began to be observed a short time thereafter that in Shiloh's stall there was to be found every morning one or more of the rodents dead, the bodies of which indicated that they had died violent deaths, but what that death was remained a mystery until one of the stablemen discovered that the big bay horse himself was the executioner.
The horse was then watched at the work, and the strategy and cunning of the animal was said to be remarkable. He will stand over a rat for any length of time without stirring, his ears alert and his eyes fixed on the hole. Then, as the rat breaks cover abruptly and hurriedly, as they always do, Shiloh brings down the sharp hoof of his uplifted foot upon his little but harassing foe, finishing the life out of him, and if he fails to catch the wily creature, it will overtake him with outstretched neck, and suiting him in his powerful teeth, throw him against the side of the stall, thus breaking his back.
It is but seldom that this curious sport fails to get his prey. The horse not only seems to enjoy the sport, for he will repeat it over and over again, and if anyone stands and watches him at it he will, without ceasing to be on the qui vive for the rat, occasionally turn his intelligent eye on the spectator, as if to say, "I'll get him yet."

Proving to be
Meet! The Cattle Market
It * Overstocked.
Cincinnati, July * (Special Telegram to Turn.)
The wheat market today did not have much to say to it. Short sales were in any danger of being covered yesterday. The market was well unstained to the close that there was a large amount of fresh short selling in the other months, without causing any serious setback from the top prices. This morning found the market largely bearish. Some were bearish because short of the market and others were bearish on the conditions reported. The fact that Hutchison was doing but little as the market without a leader. The new tone of the day was not positive enough to call for any sharp action either way. The hogs points were firm enough, unoffended by the excellent weather in England and the continent, giving rise to a better feeling. A few bad crop dispatches from particular spots in Dakota, reports of two boatloads fresh exported business at New York, closing cables at a penny concern California states, and talk of 400,000 bushels work done in this market for export. On the bear side was the short interest mentioned playing for a decline or cessation due to the lack of rains and most client weather being very good, spring wheat prospects, and infallible of new wheat beginning to come in freely at St. Louis and Chicago. The market in neither no trace of strong or weak. It was up and down and mixed and out. July was slightly higher to 85c to 87c to 85c to 87c to 82c to 81c; August 87c to 83c to 85c to 83c to 82c; September 84c to 83c to 82c to 83c to 82c to 81c; December sold 84c to 83c to 84c to 83c to 82c to 81c.
The corn market was featureless most of the day. Shortly before the close there was some buying taking of July which caused that month to close a fraction higher, while the other months closed about steady. The receipts were light at 490,000 bushels; inspections were 1,400 bushels; shipments were far below the sinching at 2,100,000 bushels. The Atlantic ports cleared only 1,600,000 bushels.
The first prices were involved and the early trading resulted in a slight decline on excellent growing weather throughout the corn belt. July held steady to 85c and on later buying, closed at 84c; June was 2.5c below July all day; August was 3c above July and closed at 83c; September sold at 82c and closed at 84c; October 86c to 87c at the close.
The oats market was the dullest for many weeks. The extreme range for the day for any month was 2.5c and the closing prices were thus mostly unchanged today. July 27.5c early and 27.5c to the close; August 22.5c to 23.5c to the close; September 22.5c to 23.5c to 22.5c to the close. No crop news of importance was reported.
The provision trade was ghastly up to changing today. There was a general getting out of July and getting into September. This was especially true in ribs. On the whole, all months were steady, pork receipts, and that does not act much on the natural condition. July pork sold off to 40.6c and recovered to 41.5c on light trading; August pork was up to 40.6c early and steady at 40.2c, with September at 40.3c; beef was simply 2.5c lower for July at 36.75c and September at 35.75c. The most noticeable feature of the day was the heavy selling of September by Sills, which somewhat moderated the selling of the same by Hutchison.
CANADIAN, June 27 (Special Telegram to THE TRUTH):
Commodities: Business was only moderate and there were too many cattle for Friday, as is always the case when the market is overstocked. The best steers sold firm and at about steady prices but anything not first class was hard to sell even at substation prices. Common steers were left to the last and dragged along all day. The best reports indicated that there were no surpluses among the arrivals, but later on the number for the day was placed at 2,500. The demand was slow and prices about the same as yesterday. There were also a large number of Texas thus the past two days, with prices governed by the low water market. National Stockyards' stock was unsettled. There was a little business in the stockyard and feeder line. Kansas City, $1.40-$1.70; medium to good steers, $1.60-$1.80; 1,300-$1,400; 1,800-$1,900; 1,600-$1,700; common and medium, $1.20-$1.40; bulls and mixed, $1.15-$1.40; bulk, $1.30-$1.50; steers, $1.70-$1.90; Texas grains, $1.50-$1.60; corn-fed steers, $1.35-$1.60; cows, $1.45-$1.65.
Pork underwent another down-turn of figures, the general market closing weaker at 85c, $2.35 for hogs; a few hogs sold over at 84c; light hogs, $1.25-$1.30. A huge number will be carried over and a big sale for Saturday is looked for tomorrow.
NEW YORK, June 27 (Special Telegram to THE TRUTH):
Stocks: An additional feature of dullness was apparent in stockings this morning. This was a distinct decrease in trading in the basic stocks. Another and outside influence was found in the slowdown direction. The addition of Bank of Rutland in approximately its rates worked against the close; money generally abroad has diminished the German orders in American securities. Still, there was a little flurry of activity just at the opening, but it was marked by a general weakness, and the list prices as a whole were from 1 to 2½ percent lower than the closing; Chicago grains were 7, lower and Louisville & Nashville were 4½ percent at the conclusion. The general market continued but little further, as a result of the stone tone developed almost immediately and prices were lifted about there of the beginning, thus continuing the chancy nature of the market. Registrations were as usual very slight. Chicago was the most prominent feature of the market, and after reaching a peak of 84.5c, it commenced to decline before the end of the hour. After the hour, Chicago stocks were weak also with Northern shares 4½ percent lower. Pennsylvania coal stocks closed steady.

SOUTH DAKOTA NEWS:
Of St. Agnes' Sulphur.
The first year of St. Agnes' parochial school was closed yesterday with interesting and appropriate services.
The school was opened last September under the order of the Sisters of Providence with about 150 pupils, and at the close of the term there were cut off 220 pupils with an average attendance of 100.
Yesterday the sisters took the children on a picnic. This morning mass of thanks was sung by the Rev. Father D.W. Moilarty, followed by the benediction of the blessed sacrament and singing the usual doxology. Returning to the auditorium, the teachers and pupils assembled in St. Agnes' hall where the Rev. Father Moretarty delivered a pleasing address to and dismissed the children. He expressed satisfaction with the result of the labors and efforts of the sisters during the year, predicting twice as large an attendance next year. To the surprise of visitors and to the credit pastor, teachers, and pupils, nearly all the pupils wished to have school during the summer. Within a fortnight the teachers will return to St. Mary of the Woods, Indiana, to spend the summer and will return in the latter part of August to reopen school the first of September.

While the Farmers1 Alliance loaders

Behomea of reform , such ns govornmon

farm mortgages , they nro ImltKoran
about the most vital and essential ro
forma demanded in the in to rest of farm
ers and middle class taxpayers.
Our whole revenue and taxing system
needs overhauling. Under our prcson
law with the prevailing methods of Lax
shirking and fictitious nasessmont , the
great bulk of nil taxes falls upon the
homesteaders and the homo owners it
the cities. Real estate is tlio
only kind of property that canno
cscnpo the eyes of the nsesssor. Million !
upon millions of property in the shape o
stocks , bonds , mortgages and money are
never listed. Corporations that have
acquired franchises worth millions are
assessed at a moro song and allowed to
shift their proper share of taxes upon the
owners of lands , storehouses , mills and
factories who are not able to hide thcli
property from the assessors.
This is why taxes upon land nro out ol
all proportion in Nebraska as compnroil
witli taxes in most of the states. Ii
some states , notably in Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania , no state taxes are
levied upon land. The entire expenses
of state government are borne by special
levies upon corporations and from li
censes nnd franchises.
In 1889 the state of Massachusetts de
rived a revenue of 8321 , : ! 11.17 from cor
poration taxes ; $100,033.15 from bank
stock taxes , and $ 'J57,35 ; from savings
bank taxes.
The life and fire insurance companies
naid in nearly four hundred thousand
dollars for the privilege of doing busi
ness in the state. The railroads paid
nearly twenty-five thousand dollars
special tax toward'the maintenance ol
the state railroad commission. Foreign
railroad companies incorporated in
Massachusetts were taxed sixty-nine
thousand dollars on their fran
chises. The Boll telephone company
paid a franchise tax of 897,000 and other
concerns , such as telegraph , street rail
way , electric light and bridge compa
nies , were taxed by the state in proportion
tion to their income and property inter
ests.
During the same year the state of
Pennsylvania , levied a tax on corpora
tion stocks and limited partnerships of
$1,952,771.Wi ; on gross receipts of corpo
rations , $ ol7,2oG.U ; ; on insurance compa

and deeds , $158,2.58 ; tax on for

In other words , out of a revenue of
eight millions and a half raised by Penn
sylvania in 18S9 only seventeen hundred
and oighty-nino dollars were levied
against lots nnd'lands.
Is there any valid reason why Ne
braska should not emulate the example
of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts and
raise tlio entire revenue needed for car
rying on state government from the
class that derives their charters and
their franchises for earning enormous
incomes from the state ?
Another much needed reform is the
creation of designated depositories for
state , county and city treasurers. Many
treasurers in this state have grown
wealthy on a four-year term from loan
ing tlio public funds to bankers , who are
usually their bondsmen or political back
ers. In 1889 the state of Massachusetts
received ono hundred and seven thou
sand dollars in interest on its state funds
from the banks which were designated
as depositories.
Nebraska has ordinarily not as much
ready money in her state treasury as
Massachusetts , but wo venture to assort
that fully twenty-live thousand 'dollars a
year could bo realized from state do-
posits.
These are only some of the many im
portant reforms which THR BKE intends
; o advocate during the coining campaign.
.They are within the roach of our home
rulers and can bo brought about if they
will center their energies upon
things that nro within their
reach instead of fighting wind
uills and agitating wild-cat pro
jects that are not likely to material
ize during the present generation.
THE democracy of South Carolina is
lopolossly divided. The rents have be
come BO alarming that Wade Hampton
iiirriodly rushes home from Washington
to pray and plead for harmony. His
fauecoss has not boon particularly marked.
On the contrary , the factions glared all
ho more desperately at each other , as
.hough . nothing short of blood , will bat-
sfy their longing. The immediate
CUUSG of the disturbance goes to show
.hat the so-called now south possesses
irooious little influence in that boction.
Although the now element secured
heir candidate to head the
ticket , the fact that ho did
lot fight for the lost eauso provoked a
vldottproad ruction. His plosi that ho
vas only seventeen yours of ago at the
ima intensified tlio opposition , who are
determined that none but a patriot of
ho war shall receive their bull'rago. In
ho light of this political omouto , the ro-
) ort that the ill-feelings engendered by
ho rebellion are fast dying out in the
outh lacks the vital element of truth.
Tine official announcement of the pop-

lundrod and seventeen thousand , Inclini
ng five subut\s ) outside the corporation
imlts of the city. A. few corrections and
idditions are yet to bo made , but the
iggroguto will not ho materially changed.
Vhilo the result does not come up to
expectations , the exhibit proclaims the
vondorful development of the chief city
of Colorado. An inoroabo of over three
iiuidrcd per cent in ton years Is a record
of progress nnd prosperity that ought to
ntisfy the most sanguine resident of
Denver. Omaha tenders the usual con
gratulations.
A PANOKUOUS foe threatens our
low men-of-war. Although equipped
vith the latest conveniences for
laughter , they are practically yso-
ess for want of muscular motive
lower. It is impossible to secure
. sulllciont number of American seamen
to man the vesbels. The Enterprise is
unable to go into commission because no
recruits can bo had from tlio receiving
ships with which to man her. Tlio Con
cord , Pnlladclphla nnd Snn Francisco ,
the latest addition.- the navy , are
oven worse off. This condition of affairs
Illustrates the decay of American sea
manship , and shows the necessity of
either increasing naval training schools
or suspending the work of shipbuilding.
The experience of seamen with com
manders of the McCnlla stamp Is not
likely to encourage volunteers.
OriK of tlio strong -wlnts urged by
Minneapolis against tlio ithargo of a
stuiTcd census is that its school popula
tion Humbert ) twenty-two thousand. On
this basis It claims a population of two
hundred thousand , a ratio of nlno to one.
Tlio school population of Omaha amounts
to twenty-one thousand , nnd the federal
census makes the total population ono
hundred and thirty-font' thousand seven
hundred and forty-two. Multiplying
the school census byho Minneapolis
ration the population of Omaha would
bo ono hundred and eighty thousand. In
view of those facts it is evident that
Minneapolis is up to stuff.
OVBII six thousand lots in Omaha
owned by railway companies are practi
cally exempted from city taxation under
pretense that they are part of the right-
of-way. Under the huv the right-of-way
of a railroad is only fifty foot on either
side of the main track. Fully two-thirds
of the lots now marked oit as right-of-
way should bo on the assessment roll the
same ns other property. Many of them
are hold for speculative , warehouse , fac
tory and lumberyard purposes.
OMAHA has passed the point whore it
was necessary for her welfare to confer
public privileges on corporations. What
is valuable to an organization of individ
uals is equally valuable to the city nnd
should not bo granted without compensa
tion. St. Louis , Chicago and Now York
have realized millions from the snip of
now and lapsed franchises. Lot Omaha
follow the example and secure a sub
stantial return for the rights and bene
fits bCotowcd.
FAIUNO to hold up the county by or
dinary pressure , the county contractors

THE cutting of rates by rainbow rail
roads furnishes the best argument in

OTHEK LANDS.TIIAN OURS.
German enthusiasm over the proposal by
Enrland to cede Heligoland to the German
empire is calculated to niako the marquis of
Salisbury rather weary. The English prime
minister evidently thought ho was doing a
rather sharp stroke of business when ho pro
posed to relinquish Heligoland in exchange
for a clear title of n largo slice of Africa. lie
was a little doubtful , apparently , whether
Germany would consent to any limitation of
her African empire , and the suggestion of the
surrender of Heligoland was thrown in as a
little bribe to conciliate the party of the other
part , as a private citizen who wished to drive
a peed bargain might commence operations
by ordering in champagne and cigars.
The German dcligbt over the recovery of
Heligoland is , however , so hearty and over
flowing that Lord Salisbury must begin to
think bo hasn't made half as good a bargain
as ho might have done. If. ho had offered
Heligoland as the price of the ccmpleto with
drawal of the German troops from Africa ,
and the recognition of England's claim to ab
solute supremacy from Cairo to Capo Town ,
It seems probable that the offer would have
been readily accepted. At least Lord Salis
bury , ns n keen and grasping merchant in
real estate , must begin by this time to feel
licartily ashamed of himself because ho did
not niako such a suggestion. The trouble
with England's chief shopkeeper is that ho
failed to appreciate the force of the senti
ment that makes Germany desirous of expell
ing a foreign garrison from the mouth of her
North sea ports.

In its domestic legislation tbo Salisbury
government has reached the lowest stage of
degradation. The announcement of the with
drawal of the licensing clause ot the local
taxation bill completo's tbo session's record
of failure. The land purchase bill has been
practically abandoned until the next session ,
md the licensing question , on which the gov
ernment has narrowly escaped defeat , 1ms
icon withdrawn. Lord Salisbury lias en
forced discipline in his own party at tlio sacri-
ice of botli measures , which have boon under
discussion during the greater part of the ses
sion. Even his proposal to thwart obstruc
tion by a change of proceeduro by which
noasures can bo carried from one session to
another has boon withdrawn , and Mr.
Gladstone's plan of n parliamentary
nqulry substituted in'its place. The gov
ernment emerges from the business of the
session discredited mid humiliated. It has
icon unable to cope with obstruction. It 1ms
failed to accomplish nny important legislative
results. It is evident that Lord Salisbury's
party suffers from the lack of effective lead
ership in the bouse. His own attention is
engrossed with questions of foreign relations.
His heart is in his diplomatic work , and ho is
omurkably successful In all his undertakings
n his own ofllco. As nrlmo minister respon
sible for domestic legislation nnd the conduct
of ills party ho is signally Buccossfnl. As an
old lory ho is singularly out of toucli with the
icw torylsm , and a conservative prime min
ster who fails to enlist tlio sympathies of the
democratic nnd progressive elements of his
) arty exposes himself to defeat in a general
election.

Bismarck costs woU-dosorvod ridlculo on
ho assertion of a Gorman paper that the
ircsout cordial relations of the British anil
.toman courts must have n powerful effect
on the political situation. Ho points out that
vhntovor may bo the jwrsotml inlluenco of
valser William II. on the foreign policy of
Jormany , Queen Victoria bus no voice ut all
n determining tlio foreign policy of England.
The attempt of the Into I'rluco Albert to
lulm in tlio quoon's name bomo share in the
namigomont of foreign affairs was resisted
nd eventually bnllled by Lord Pahncrston ;
ud the experiment has never boon renewed
luce the death of the prince consort.
n the present temper of the English
woplo the knowledge that the court
md exerted pivssuro In favor of a treaty
vould bo fatal to Its ratification. If the
noon , who , wo believe , never reads the news-
tapers , is blind to the conditions upon which
iionnrcuy is still tolerated In England , wo.
my bo certain that the prince of Wales ts
ully alive to them. The fact that the Gorman
uipcror is Quoou Victoria's grandson would
ot have a pin's weight In deciding the atti
tude of Kuglimd toward Germany In the coso
of n couUttuttU war. Wo may ai-sumo with
perfect itiliiMcnco that whichever political
iwrty hnpncu to bo In tower In England dur >
Ing the next continental war , that country
will observe A policy of strict neutrality be
tween the combatants. Such an attitude on
her part will , of course , leave the Italian
peninsula at tbo , tnorcy of the French navy ,
but King Humbert's government should have
thought of < this before consenting to nlly It
self with Germany and Austria.
'li
, t
It is not unnatural thnt Franco Is displeased
with the Anglo-Gorman compact for the par
tition of A'frjoa ' , for while Franco has no di
rect Interest In the Central African region *
about which the bargain la made , her Indirect
Interest is very great Indeed. Even the
minor matter of tbo surrender of Heligoland
by England Ls of concern to France , because
It gives Germany nn opportunity to fortify a
vulnerable point on her coast , whoso defense
less condition might easily have boon of ad-
vantatre to the French In coso of war. But the
primary eauso ot French discontent is that the
terms of the Anglo-Gorman bargain clearly In
dicate the intention of Great Britain to retain
her present control In Egypt nndtostrcngthcn
and extend her dominion there. The treaty
Is In effect Great Britain's defiant answer to
the French demand for the neutralization of
Egypt , and the partition assigns territory to
England the possession of which must greatly
strengthen the British hold upon the Nile.
Tlio explanation of French discontent with
the arrangement Is also nn explanation of tlio
motives which prompted the British ministry
to make it.
Intense bitterness prevails at Trieste just
now against the Austrian government In con
sequence of the lattor's determination to put
an end to the Immunities and privileges which
the ancient city of Tcrgestc , founded by the
Roman Emperor Vespasian , has enjoyed since
the year A. D. 1710 , when It was flrst declared
nn imperial free port , and exempt from the
payment of national taxes. On Juno SO , 1801
just twelve mouths hcnco Trieste will bo
reduced to the lovcl of an ordinary seaport
city of the empire mid its commercial pros
perity will receive a blow that will probably
prove mortal. The action of tlio Aus
trian government In the matter is
mainly duo to the Influence of Hun
gary , which has spent vast sums
in the construction of quays and docks at
Flume , and which Is naturally Jealous of the
extraordinary privileges enjoyed by her rival.
Hitherto Trieste has monopolized almost the
entire shipping trade of the dual empire , its
annual imports nnd exports exceeding
$150,000.000. Unfortunately , however , it has
for many years past hud the reputation oi being -
ing the most disloyal city in the empire. Ir-
rjndentiam prevails among nil classes of Its
inhabitants , who lese no opportunity of maa- ,
ifesting their ardent love for everything Ital-
iin and their doep-rootrd aversion for Aus
tria. This , doubtless , has greatly contrib
uted to bring about the government's decis
ion to rescind its ancient charter.

Ono of the most interesting series of naval
and military manoeuvres planned for the
present year is that which the Germans are
to carry out inSeptembor on the Schlcswig-
Holstcin coast. Perhaps should the British
admiralty fail' to continue tills summer , as
now seems probable , the elaborate and some
what expensive naval campaign it has carried
on for several seasons between Great Britain
and a hypothetical enemy called "Achill , "
the Germans may count on presenting the
chief naval attraction of tlio year.
The land , , forces In this affair ,
which will .include an attacjc upon
the Island of Alsen , will bo supplied by the
Ninth army corps , while adoutn dozen nrmor-
clads of vario'us.classes , a fleet of torpedo
boats and several light unarmored crafts are
expected to participate in the naval portion
of the programme. The occasion will bo
graced by visiting squadrons representing
England , Austria , Denmark , Sweden , Nor
way aud perhaps other countries. It docs
not yet appear whether any representative of
our own modern steel licet will attend.

The pr oposed constitution for Brazil is a
most enlightened and progressive scheme of
government. It furnishes a complete vindi
cation of the patriotism , republicanism nnd
practical wisdom of the revolutionary load
ers. They were placed in power by the army ,
but they have devised a scheme of public
law by which tl > o sovereign people will be
made supremo. The constitution Is not pro
claimed as a finality , but ns a do facto
system of government , which will be
revised and legalized by the constituent
assembly about to bo elected. The pro
visional government has successfully re
sisted the temptation to usurp the functions
ot the representatives of the people. When
the constituent assembly moots president
and ministers will resign the functions exor
cised by thorn since the revolution. A now
president will then bo elected and another
ministry will bo immediately formed ; and
then the constituent assembly will revise nnd
promulgate the fundamental law. There
could bo no wiser method of procedure than
this. The electors will have the tentative
scheme of publio law before them when they
cheese their deputies nnd senators in the
constituent assembly , nnd hcnco they will
vote more intelligently ; but the constitu
tion will bo subject rfo amendment
nnd final revision by the representa
tives of the people. The constitu
tion Involves an essential reproduction
of the American polltlftil system.
The legislative and administrative functions
are separated. The cabinet will bo responsi
ble to the president nnd Its members will
neither bo eligible to seats .in the legislative
chambers , nor forced to resign their ofllces
when there Is an adverse vote. The functions
of the chambers will bo purely legislative.
The Amoriqan rather than the French system
is imitated In these respects ; and the election
of president is to bo conducted as it is in the
United States. The flrst president will bo
elected by the constituent assembly , but sub
sequently the fcfe ice Is to bo made by nn
'
electoral college , , whoso members will moot in
the capitals of , tbo states.
An era of cstpnslvo railroad construction
in China would seem to bo not far off. It is
evident that China is becoming alarmed at
the attitude pf HussUi. Tlio completion of
the Siberian railpad would increase the fear
tliat outside Uurbarians are fast closing in
upon her , and tlio restlessness of Corea under
Cliino.so suzerainty , together with the ad
vances that hoVp'bocn made by tlio czar to the
government at Seoul , have convinced the in
telligent Chinese viceroys that something
should bo done' to counteract this inlluotice.
It is also acl i,6wlodgnd that China needs
railways in qriior to revive her expert -
port trade , and while a number of per
sons now employed In boat and cart trnflle
would necessarily bo thrown out of work ,
nnd the use of foreign employes and material
would injure native Interests , it is admitted
generally that the advantages of the innova
tion would greatly outweigh all tbo objec
tions. The proposed now road is to extend
southward from Pcidn to Han-ICow , n treaty
port on the Yuug-tse , 500 miles from the
mouth of that river. The foreign trade of
that port amounts to ? VJOMOOJ , ; and the line
would bo too fur from the coast to bo seized
byuucuo.liy. If atich n road should bo built
other roads would undoubtedly bo con
structed between the various ports and the
cities of the Interior , gradually extending to
the frontier , nnd a uow factor would aid the
spread of the world's commerce.
1M2HSONAL IiIUl-UlTY r.
A convention consisting of SI3 delegates
from roprosciittttlvo German organizations
throughout the state met in Bohanan's halt ,
Lincoln , on Wednesday , Juno 25. The com-
mttteo on resolutions comprising Messrs. F.
Schimko , J. D. Klutnch , Oicar Bornoekor ,
Kudolph Mnek and lov. ? II. Frlnko , reported
the following platform which was adopted
by an almost unanimous vote :
1. The name of the organization shall bo
the "League for the protection of personal
rights In the state of Nebraska. "
2. Wo oppose prohibition.
3. Whereas , In our last legislature , tn compulsory -
pulsory education bill , known as house-roll
No. 4,19 , obtained n favorable report from the
committee on schools , and whereas the bill
grossly violates the rights of parents in the
free choice of schools for their children besides -
sides Booking to bring all private schools
under state control with the expressed Intent
to suppress the same ; therefore wo llml our
selves forced to make the following declara
tion :
n. Wo acknowledge that the sttito has a
right to compel such parents as neglect the
education of their children to do their duly.
Wo thoicforo consider the compulsory edu
cation law contained in chapter 711 , section
10 , paragraph 1 , of the laws of Nebraska ,
ISSlt , a necessary , wlso and wholoiouio pro
vision which should bo strictlv enforced.
b. But a compulsory education law which ,
directly or indirectly , prescribes the Ian-
gnugo and branches of Instruction or the
course of study for the private and parish
schools , by means of which prescription an
undue control over these schools Is given the
stnto or the f reo choice of schools for their
children is denied the parents , is nn nttaclt
not only upon personal rights but also upon
tlio religious freedom which is Kiiarantccd to
every clti/en of this state in sections 1 and 4
of tlio llrst article of the constitution of Ne
braska.
c. While wo are entirely opposed to each
and every appropriation of public money for
private schools , yet wo think that any pri
vate or parish school which is conducted upon
proper educational principles nnd In
which n thorough religious training is
imparted can only redound as a'blesslng to the
stato. Their rights should therefore bo in no
way infringed nor should they bo limited in
their activity but rather protected. Wo
therefore agree to support no candidate for
any public ofUce , who deus not promise to op
pose with all lawful means , every unneces
sary and unconstitutional measure of this
kind
Wo hereby declare that the national con
gress nnd the legislature of Nebraslca ought
to enact such laws as would relieve the de
pression under which our farmers and mer
chants are suffering , taking into account
their necessities in regard to products , dis
tance from markets , relief of commereo and
reduction of freight rates ,
Wo therefore recommend that ns many
farmers and merchants as possible bo nomi
nated for executive oflk'ors of the state , ex
cept for the ofllco of governor , as well as for
members of the legislature.
5. An executive committee consisting of one
member for each organized county shall be
chosen by this convention , which shall have
authority to call a state convention for the
nomination of state olllcers in case tlio candi
dates of the existing parties do not approve
our principles.
0. Tlio executive committee shall select a
chairman and shall judge the different candi
dates by their characters and inclinations and
slinll report the results to the branch organi
zations. Tlio executive committee shall also
endeavor to bring about , in each county , tlio
foundation of a branch league , which shall
see that all German-Americans obtain their
naturalization papers ns soon as possible.
7. Lincoln shall bo the seat of the executive
committee.
8. Tlio oflicers of the permanent organiza
tion shall retain their positions until the
county representatives have boon named and
have chosen their ofllcors.
9. Tlio county delegations shall cheese tem
porarily their representatives on the execu
tive committee.
Tha temporary representatives thus far
chosen are :

THE DAILY HERALD, Omaha, June 1, 1890
OFFICIAL POPULATION of Omaha, 1890,
The local political mercury is steadily
crowding the prevailing temperature.
To the north side, the Nebraska Central
Medical Company has become a bridge of
highs.
DESIRE the incomplete work of the
enumerators, Omaha is satisfied with
the result.
MAYOR CREAMING doubtless feels a professional pride
in having surrounded
himself with a contractor cabinet.
The vigorous cleanup of basements
abolished by the fire department will
materially diminish the occupation of
fire-bugs.
Foster inconsiderate actions into office is
a species of mayoralty spindown which
will not be appreciated by the taxpayers
who foot the bills.
The tongue duel going on between
Messrs. Powderly and Gompers is not
calculated to do the cause of organized
labor the least possible good.
An increase of one hundred and
four thousand inhabitants in ten years
is conclusive evidence of the wonderful
strides of the "young Chicago of the
west."
Now that the hospital job has entered
the courts, the custodian of the county
records should see to it that the vouchers
do not "mysteriously disappear" before the trial.
The marquis of Queensbury rules have
been radically amended in San Francisco
so as to allow professors of that peculiar
code to work on their surplus flesh on
the juicy stone piles at San Quentin.
In DENVER is privy to another exception
of time to round up surrounding towns
and transients, it is barely possible that
she will come within hailing distance of
Omaha in population.
The grave danger that Council-man O'Connor will
be lost in the mysterious mazes of the jail job bills. Frequent
pulls on the combine string will
insure his safety.
It is cause for congratulation in
the fact that the steamship subsidy bills
are slumbering in the congressional
pigeon holes. Even with a strong lobby
at the capital, there is not a shadow of a
chance to resurrect them. The condition of the treasury forbids it.
The latest attempt to break down the
electrocution law of New York
was
thrown out of the court of appeals. In
doing so the court vigorously rebuked
the lawyers for urging flimsy pretexts
against a law already declared constitutional. It is barely possible, after all,
that Rockefeller will die of old age.
The efforts of the democratic senators
to talk to death the admission of Wyoming has failed. It serves to show, however,
that the party's faculty for blundering is undiminished. The strength of
both parties in the territory is about
equal, but the opposition of democratic
leaders will turn a debatable state into a
Republican stronghold. Wyoming knows
its friends.
The cession of the Potawatomie
Indian reservation to the government
swells the public domain by six hundred
thousand acres. The land is bounded in
Indian Territory on the southwest border
of Oklahoma. In addition, the commission has concluded negotiations with the
Iowa and Sacs and Foxes for nearly seven
hundred thousand acres, all of which
will be added to the territory of Oklahoma, making the total area about three
million acres. The ceded land will be
sold to actual settlers and the proceeds
turned into the respective Indian funds.
The Hawaiian government objects to
a repeal of the sugar duty and the offer
of a bounty to American sugar growers,
as proposed by the McKinley bill. Such
action will be regarded by the Hawaiians as abrogating the treaty of 1875,
under which Hawaiian sugar was admitted free of duty in return for exclusive naval privileges to the United
States. The treaty of 1875 was a juggle
affair. The privileges secured
by the United States were purchased at
a heavy price. It served to create the
California sugar kings and strengthen a
monopoly without benefiting the public
in the slightest degree.
While the Farmers' Alliance leaders
are agitating all sorts of impractical
methods of reform, such as government
grain storage and two percent loans on
farm mortgages, they are silent about the most vital and essential reforms demanded in the interests of farmers and middle-class taxpayers.
Our whole revenue and taxing system
needs overhauling. Under our personal
property law with the prevailing methods of tax-shirking and fictitious assessments, the great bulk of all taxes falls upon the
homesteaders and the home owners in
the cities. Real estate is the
only kind of property that cannot
escape the eyes of the assessor. Millions
upon millions of property in the shape of
stocks, bonds, mortgages, and money are
never listed. Corporations that have
acquired franchises worth millions are
assessed at a more song and allowed to
shift their proper share of taxes upon the
owners of lands, storehouses, mills, and
factories who are not able to hide their
property from the assessor.
This is why taxes upon land are out of
all proportion in Nebraska as compared
with taxes in most of the states. In some states, notably in Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania, no state taxes are
levied upon land. The entire expenses
of state government are borne by special
levies upon corporations and from licenses
and franchises.
In 1889, the state of Massachusetts derived a revenue of $321,617 from corporation taxes; $100,033.15 from bank stock taxes, and $75,735 from savings bank taxes.
The life and fire insurance companies paid in nearly four hundred thousand dollars for the privilege of doing business in the state. The railroads paid nearly twenty-five thousand dollars special tax towards the maintenance of the state railroad commission. Foreign railroad companies incorporated in Massachusetts were taxed sixty-nine thousand dollars on their franchises. The Bell telephone company paid a franchise tax of $897,000 and other concerns, such as telegraph, street railway, electric light and bridge companies, were taxed by the state in proportion to their income and property interests.
During the same year, the state of Pennsylvania levied a tax on corporation stocks and limited partnerships of $1,952,771; on gross receipts of corporations, $17,200; on insurance companies' premiums, $19,900.01; tax on bank stocks, safe deposits and trust companies, $16,900.82; tax on writs, wills and deeds, $158,255; tax on foreign insurance companies, $317,616; bonuses on charters, $104,501. Various railroad companies paid over $400,000.
In other words, out of a revenue of eight millions and a half raised by Pennsylvania in 1889, only seventeen hundred and eighty-nine dollars were levied against lots and lands.
Is there any valid reason why Nebraska should not emulate the example of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts and raise the entire revenue needed for carrying on state government from the class that derives their charters and their franchises for earning enormous incomes from the state?
Another much needed reform is the creation of designated depositories for state, county and city treasurers. Many treasurers in this state have grown wealthy on a four-year term from lending the public funds to bankers, who are usually their bondsmen or political backers. In 1889, the state of Massachusetts received one hundred and seven thousand dollars in interest on its state funds from the banks which were designated as depositories.
Nebraska has ordinarily not as much ready money in her state treasury as Massachusetts, but we venture to assert that fully twenty-five thousand dollars a year could be realized from state deposits.
These are only some of the many important reforms which THE BEE intends to advocate during the coming campaign. They are within the reach of our home rulers and can be brought about if they will center their energies upon things that are within their reach instead of fighting windmills and agitating wild-cat projects that are not likely to materialize during the present generation.
THE democracy of South Carolina is politically divided. The rents have become so alarming that Wade Hampton hurriedly rushes home from Washington to pray and plead for harmony. His success has not been particularly marked. On the contrary, the factions glared at each other even more desperately, as though nothing short of blood would satisfy their longing. The immediate cause of the disturbance goes to show that the so-called new south possesses precious little influence in that section.
Although the new element secured their candidate to head the ticket, the fact that he did not fight for the lost cause provoked a wide spread ruction. His plan that he was only seventeen years of age at the time intensified the opposition, who are determined that none but a patriot of the war shall receive their bull's-eye. In the light of this political outcome, the report that the ill-feelings engendered by the rebellion are fast dying out in the south lacks the vital element of truth.
The official announcement of the population of Denver shows a total of one hundred and seventeen thousand, including five suburbs outside the corporation limits of the city. A few corrections and additions are yet to be made, but the census will not be materially changed.
While the result does not come up to expectations, the exhibit proclaims the wonderful development of the chief city of Colorado. An increase of over three hundred percent in ten years is a record of progress and prosperity that ought to satisfy the most sanguine resident of Denver. Omaha tenders the usual congratulations.
A PAINFUL foe threatens our slow men-of-war. Although equipped with the latest conveniences for laughter, they are practically useless for want of muscular motive power. It is impossible to secure a sufficient number of American seamen to man the vessels. The Enterprise is unable to go into commission because no recruits can be had from the receiving ships with which to man her. The Concord, Philadelphia and San Francisco, the latest additions to the navy, are even worse off. This condition of affairs illustrates the decay of American seamanship, and shows the necessity of either increasing naval training schools or suspending the work of shipbuilding. The experience of seamen with commanders of the McCulla stamp is not likely to encourage volunteers.
One of the strong arguments urged by Minneapolis against the charge of a stuffed census is that its school population, twenty-two thousand, claims a population of two hundred thousand, a ratio of nine to one. The school population of Omaha amounts to twenty-one thousand, and the federal census makes the total population one hundred and thirty-three thousand seven hundred and forty-two. Multiplying the school census by the Minneapolis ratio, the population of Omaha would be one hundred and eighty thousand. In view of those facts, it is evident that Minneapolis is up to stuff.
OVER six thousand lots in Omaha owned by railway companies are practically exempted from city taxation under pretense that they are part of the right-of-way. Under the law, the right-of-way of a railroad is only fifty feet on either side of the main track. Fully two-thirds of the lots now marked off as right-of-way should be on the assessment roll the same as other property. Many of them are held for speculative, warehouse, factory and lumberyard purposes.
OMAHA has passed the point where it was necessary for her welfare to confer public privileges on corporations. What is valuable to an organization of individuals is equally valuable to the city and should not be granted without compensation. St. Louis, Chicago and New York have realized millions from the sale of now and lapsed franchises. Let Omaha follow the example and secure a substantial return for the rights and benefits bestowed.
FARCE to hold up the county by ordinary pressure, the county contractors have decided to appeal to the courts. We shall presently see whether they can unload a botched job on the taxpayers and at the same time raid the public treasury for thousands of dollars in excess of the contract price.
THE cutting of rates by rainbow railroads furnishes the best argument in favor of a state and inter-state reduction. As long as corporations enjoy the amusement, the authorities should promptly move to make the entertainment permanent.
OTHER LANDS THAN OURS.
German enthusiasm over the proposal by England to cede Heligoland to the German empire is calculated to make the marquis of Salisbury rather weary. The English prime minister evidently thought he was doing a rather sharp stroke of business when he proposed to relinquish Heligoland in exchange for a clear title of a large slice of Africa. He was a little doubtful, apparently, whether Germany would consent to any limitation of her African empire, and the suggestion of the surrender of Heligoland was thrown in as a little bribe to conciliate the party of the other part, as a private citizen who wished to drive a hard bargain might commence operations by ordering in champagne and cigars.
The German delight over the recovery of Heligoland is, however, so hearty and overflowing that Lord Salisbury must begin to think he hasn't made half as good a bargain as he might have done. If he had offered Heligoland as the price of the complete withdrawal of the German troops from Africa, and the recognition of England's claim to absolute supremacy from Cairo to Cape Town, it seems probable that the offer would have been readily accepted. At least Lord Salisbury, as a keen and grasping merchant in real estate, must begin by this time to feel heartily ashamed of himself because he did not make such a suggestion. The trouble with England's chief shopkeeper is that he failed to appreciate the force of the sentiment that makes Germany desirous of expelling a foreign garrison from the mouth of her North Sea ports.
In its domestic legislation, the Salisbury government has reached the lowest stage of degradation. The announcement of the withdrawal of the licensing clause of the local taxation bill completes the session's record of failure. The land purchase bill has been practically abandoned until the next session, and the licensing question, on which the government has narrowly escaped defeat, has been withdrawn. Lord Salisbury has enforced discipline in his own party at the sacrifice of both measures, which have been under discussion during the greater part of the session. Even his proposal to thwart obstruction by a change of procedure by which measures can be carried from one session to another has been withdrawn, and Mr. Gladstone's plan of a parliamentary inquiry substituted in its place. The government emerges from the business of the session discredited and humiliated. It has been unable to cope with obstruction. It has failed to accomplish any important legislative results. It is evident that Lord Salisbury's party suffers from the lack of effective leadership in the House. His own attention is engrossed with questions of foreign relations. His heart is in his diplomatic work, and he is remarkably successful in all his undertakings in his own office. As prime minister responsible for domestic legislation and the conduct of his party, he is signally unsuccessful. As an old Tory, he is singularly out of touch with the new Toryism, and a conservative prime minister who fails to enlist the sympathies of the democratic and progressive elements of his party exposes himself to defeat in a general election.
Bismarck's recent declaration of a German paper that the most cordial relations of the British and German courts must have a powerful effect on the political situation. He points out that whatever may be the personal influence of Kaiser William II on the foreign policy of Germany, Queen Victoria has no voice at all in determining the foreign policy of England. The attempt of the late Prince Albert to assume some share in the management of foreign affairs was resisted and eventually balked by Lord Palmerston; and the experiment has never been renewed since the death of the prince consort. In the present temper of the English people, the knowledge that the court exerted pressure in favor of a treaty would be fatal to its ratification. If the queen, who, we believe, never reads the newspapers, is blind to the conditions upon which monarchy is still tolerated in England, we may be certain that the prince of Wales is fully alive to them. The fact that the German emperor is Queen Victoria's grandson would not have a pin's weight in deciding the attitude of England toward Germany in the case of a continental war. We may assume with perfect assurance that whichever political party happens to be in power in England during the next continental war, that country will observe a policy of strict neutrality between the combatants. Such an attitude on her part will, of course, leave the Italian peninsula at the mercy of the French navy, but King Humbert's government should have thought of this before consenting to ally itself with Germany and Austria.
It is not unnatural that France is displeased with the Anglo-German compact for the partition of Africa, for while France has no direct interest in the Central African region about which the bargain is made, her indirect interest is very great indeed. Even the minor matter of the surrender of Heligoland by England is of concern to France, because it gives Germany an opportunity to fortify a vulnerable point on her coast, whose defenseless condition might easily have been of advantage to the French in case of war. But the primary cause of French discontent is that the terms of the Anglo-German bargain clearly indicate the intention of Great Britain to retain her present control in Egypt and to strengthen and extend her dominion there. The treaty is in effect Great Britain's defiant answer to the French demand for the neutralization of Egypt, and the partition assigns territory to England the possession of which must greatly strengthen the British hold upon the Nile. The explanation of French discontent with the arrangement is also an explanation of the motives which prompted the British ministry to make it.
Intense bitterness prevails at Trieste just now against the Austrian government in consequence of the latter's determination to put an end to the immunities and privileges which the ancient city of Trieste, founded by the Roman Emperor Vespasian, has enjoyed since the year A.D. 1710, when it was first declared an imperial free port, and exempt from the payment of national taxes. On June 30, 1801, just twelve months hence, Trieste will be reduced to the level of an ordinary seaport city of the empire and its commercial prosperity will receive a blow that will probably prove mortal. The action of the Austrian government in the matter is mainly due to the influence of Hungary, which has spent vast sums in the construction of quays and docks at Fiume, and which is naturally jealous of the extraordinary privileges enjoyed by her rival. Hitherto Trieste has monopolized almost the entire shipping trade of the dual empire, its annual imports and exports exceeding $150,000,000. Unfortunately, however, it has for many years past had the reputation of being the most disloyal city in the empire. Irritation prevails among all classes of its inhabitants, who lose no opportunity of manifesting their ardent love for everything Italian and their deep-rooted aversion for Austria. This, doubtless, has greatly contributed to bring about the government's decision to rescind its ancient charter.
One of the most interesting series of naval and military maneuvers planned for the present year is that which the Germans are to carry out in September on the Schleswig-Holstein coast. Perhaps should the British admiralty fail to continue this summer, as now seems probable, the elaborate and somewhat expensive naval campaign it has carried on for several seasons between Great Britain and a hypothetical enemy called "Achilles," the Germans may count on presenting the chief naval attraction of the year.
The land forces in this affair, which will include an attack upon the Island of Alsen, will be supplied by the Ninth army corps, while about a dozen armored cruisers of various classes, a fleet of torpedo boats and several light unarmored crafts are expected to participate in the naval portion of the program. The occasion will be graced by visiting squadrons representing England, Austria, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and perhaps other countries. It does not yet appear whether any representative of our own modern steel fleet will attend.
The proposed constitution for Brazil is a most enlightened and progressive scheme of government. It furnishes a complete vindication of the patriotism, republicanism, and practical wisdom of the revolutionary leaders. They were placed in power by the army, but they have devised a scheme of public law by which the sovereign people will be made supreme. The constitution is not proclaimed as a finality, but as a de facto system of government, which will be revised and legalized by the constituent assembly about to be elected. The provisional government has successfully resisted the temptation to usurp the functions of the representatives of the people. When the constituent assembly meets, president and ministers will resign the functions exercised by them since the revolution. A new president will then be elected and another ministry will be immediately formed; and then the constituent assembly will revise and promulgate the fundamental law. There could be no wiser method of procedure than this. The electors will have the tentative scheme of public law before them when they choose their deputies and senators in the constituent assembly, and hence they will vote more intelligently; but the constitution will be subject to amendment and final revision by the representatives of the people. The constitution involves an essential reproduction of the American political system.
The legislative and administrative functions are separated. The cabinet will be responsible to the president and its members will neither be eligible to seats in the legislative chambers, nor forced to resign their offices when there is an adverse vote. The functions of the chambers will be purely legislative.
The American rather than the French system is imitated in these respects; and the election of president is to be conducted as it is in the United States. The first president will be elected by the constituent assembly, but subsequently the office is to be made by an electoral college, whose members will meet in the capitals of the states.
An era of extensive railroad construction in China would seem to be not far off. It is evident that China is becoming alarmed at the attitude of Russia. The completion of the Siberian railroad would increase the fear that outside barbarians are fast closing in upon her, and the restlessness of Korea under Chinese suzerainty, together with the advances that have been made by the czar to the government at Seoul, have convinced the intelligent Chinese viceroys that something should be done to counteract this influence. It is also admitted generally that China needs railways in order to revive her export trade, and while a number of persons now employed in boat and cart traffic would necessarily be thrown out of work, and the use of foreign employees and material would injure native interests, it is admitted generally that the advantages of the innovation would greatly outweigh all the objections. The proposed new road is to extend southward from Pei-ching to Han-kow, a treaty port on the Yangtze, 500 miles from the mouth of that river. The foreign trade of that port amounts to £2,000,000; and the line would be too far from the coast to be seized by bandits. If such a road should be built, other roads would undoubtedly be constructed between the various ports and the cities of the interior, gradually extending to the frontier, and a new factor would aid the spread of the world's commerce.
PERSONAL INDEPENDENCE CONVENTION.
A convention consisting of 113 delegates from representative German organizations throughout the state met in Bohanan's hall, Lincoln, on Wednesday, June 25. The committee on resolutions comprising Messrs. F. Schimko, J. D. Klutnch, Oscar Bernbeck, Rudolph Mnek and Rev. H. Frink, reported the following platform which was adopted by an almost unanimous vote:
1. The name of the organization shall be the "League for the protection of personal rights in the state of Nebraska."
2. We oppose prohibition.
3. Whereas, In our last legislature, the compulsory education bill, known as house bill No. 419, obtained a favorable report from the committee on schools, and whereas the bill grossly violates the rights of parents in the free choice of schools for their children besides looking to bring all private schools under state control with the expressed intent to suppress the same; therefore, we find ourselves forced to make the following declaration:
a. We acknowledge that the state has a right to compel such parents as neglect the education of their children to do their duty. We therefore consider the compulsory education law contained in chapter 711, section 10, paragraph 1, of the laws of Nebraska, 1887, a necessary, wise and wholesome provision which should be strictly enforced.
b. But a compulsory education law which, directly or indirectly, prescribes the language and branches of instruction or the course of study for the private and parish schools, by means of which prescription an undue control over these schools is given the state or the free choice of schools for their children is denied the parents, is an attack not only upon personal rights but also upon the religious freedom which is guaranteed to every citizen of this state in sections 1 and 4 of the first article of the constitution of Nebraska.
c. While we are entirely opposed to each and every appropriation of public money for private schools, yet we think that any private or parish school which is conducted upon proper educational principles and in which a thorough religious training is imparted can only redound as a blessing to the state. Their rights should therefore be in no way infringed nor should they be limited in their activity but rather protected. We therefore agree to support no candidate for any public office, who does not promise to oppose with all lawful means, every unnecessary and unconstitutional measure of this kind.
We hereby declare that the national congress and the legislature of Nebraska ought to enact such laws as would relieve the depression under which our farmers and merchants are suffering, taking into account their necessities in regard to products, distance from markets, relief of commerce, and reduction of freight rates.
We therefore recommend that as many farmers and merchants as possible be nominated for executive offices of the state, except for the office of governor, as well as for members of the legislature.
5. An executive committee consisting of one member for each organized county shall be chosen by this convention, which shall have authority to call a state convention for the nomination of state officers in case the candidates of the existing parties do not approve our principles.
6. The executive committee shall select a chairman and shall judge the different candidates by their characters and inclinations and shall report the results to the branch organizations. The executive committee shall also endeavor to bring about, in each county, the foundation of a branch league, which shall see that all German-Americans obtain their naturalization papers as soon as possible.
7. Lincoln shall be the seat of the executive committee.
8. The officers of the permanent organization shall retain their positions until the county representatives have been named and have chosen their officers.
9. The county delegations shall choose temporarily their representatives on the executive committee.
The temporary representatives thus far chosen are:
Douglas county, Louis Heimrod.
Seward, O. E. Bernbeck.
Richeston, F C. Hugge.
Bluest, W. H. Going.
Kearney, John Etzlmann.
Otoe, Theodore Woberging.

Not Satisfied With Solid Knots.
It looks as if the census bureau would have to go behind the returns to satisfy those cities which cannot produce the population they bragged of.
Fraternal Congratulations.
New York Sun.
May the wind blow softly through the very handsome whiskers of Major Jones of the St. Louis Republic when he appears for marriage on the appointed day next month. We renew to him on this happy event the assurance of our most distinguished consideration.
It Fits Just Our Omnipresent,
East St. Louis Journal.
"Her growth has but just begun, and before another census she will have overshadowed every rival and will have assumed that place and power which are here by geographical right." This was really written about Louisville, but every city in the country can give it a local application.
The Most Important Feature of the Federal Electing Bill.
Chicago Inter-Ocean,
The most important feature of the bill, when it comes down to practical results, is the one making the certificate of the supervisor of election, and not the governor of the state, in case the two conflict, primary evidence of election. The clerk must give it preference. This is pivotal to the actual working effect of the bill. Leave that out and the bill would be almost worthless.
PROHIBITION OR HIGH LICENSE
The Great Debate at Tecumseh July 5 and 7.
Mr. S. S. Green, secretary of the Beatrice Chautauqua assembly, sends THE BEE the following for publication:
There will be a joint debate on the question of "Prohibition vs. High License" at the Beatrice Chautauqua assembly, beginning at 10 a.m., July 5, and ending the afternoon of July 7.
Samuel Dickie, chairman of the prohibition national committee, and Rev. Sam Small will defend prohibition.
Hon. Edward Kosowator, editor of The Omaha Bee, and Hon. John L. Webster of Omaha will argue for high license.
A WASHINGTON, June 27, Postmaster General Wanmaker today received a letter postmarked New York, enclosing three thousand United States gold certificates, which, the writer says, is the interest on a sum of money demanded from the government years ago. He is the same man, he says, who bore months ago sent $1,500 to Wanmaker for the same purpose. The letter accompanying the letter is signed "Confidence."
A Mining Town Burned.
CHEYENNAN, Wyo., June 27. Meager details of the burning of the mining town of Carbon, 300 miles west of here, have reached this city. Twenty houses were destroyed, as also were the leading commercial establishments of the town. No lives were lost. The loss aggregates $100,000.
THE NEBRASKA TURNFEST.
Closing Day of the Second Annual Turnfest of the Society;
SUCCESSFUL IN EVERY PARTICULAR,
Who Wish to Go to the National Congress Should Address
Governor Thayer State Capital Lincoln.
LINCOLN, Neb., June 27. [Special to THE BEE.] The second annual great turnfest of the Nebraskan turnerkweller commenced today and proved a grand success, surpassing all expectations. All the visitors were loud in their praise of the handsome treatment they have received at the hands of the Lincoln people, no pains or expense being spared to make their stay a pleasant one.
The turner societies represented were Plattsmonth, Sioux City, South Omaha, Yalo turnverein of Omaha, Fremont, Elche turnverein of Sioux City, Lincoln, Columbus and Nebraska City turnvereine, making eleven societies altogether. The contests in strength and skill occupied Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at Sawyer's Grove, and today the prizes were awarded. There were about sixty prizes altogether, and all of the cities represented secured a fair quota.
In the class prizes Omaha took first prize, Plattsmonth second, Lincoln third, and Sioux City fourth. This speaks well for the Lincoln turners, as the society is next to the youngest in the bezirk.
In the single apparatus contests the first prize was won by Emil Funkhouser of Omaha, making him the champion turner of the bezirk. Paul Wuehr of Plattsmonth won second and third place. Fifteen prizes were given altogether.
In throwing the pole the prize was won by Fred Dretting of Fremont, his record being 17 feet, 1 inch.
The high vault prize was taken by Paul Wuehr of Plattsmonth, clearing the rope at 18 feet above the ground.
The climbing prize was awarded to Fred Kuch of Omaha, who went hand over hand up a rope five feet and 5 inches.
The 50 yards dash was won by F. Beltting of Omaha.
The stone throwing prize was given to Henry Lix of Omaha, who hurled the rock 18 feet, 7 inches.
In the high jump contest C. Bierhner of Omaha and Paul Wuehr of Plattsmonth were tied for first place.
The prize in fencing was awarded to G. Monasch of Sioux City, who showed great skill in the handling of the foils.
The wrestling matches exerted more attention than any other contest during the fest. Some splendid displays of strength and skill were made, but Otto Niederwieser of Omaha succeeded in downing all competitors. He was cheered time and again in his victories over his adversaries.
In club swinging J. Pfeil of Sioux City stood first.
The largest spear hurling prize was awarded to George Brackmann of Lincoln.
All of the awards made were declared just. Thousands of Germans from all parts of the state have been in attendance at those contests and an enjoyable week has been passed. Henry Kummerow of Omaha, turnwart, had full charge of all the exercises and as usual reflected great credit upon himself and the societies represented by his executive ability.
WHY IS THE SCHEDULE OF RATES:
"Why does the state board of transportation retain the secretaries at a cost of $7,500 per annum of the taxpayers' money?" asked a prominent citizen of your correspondent. "Why do you ask?" was the response. "Because," said he, "in the recent report made by the secretaries of the state board of transportation it is claimed that the rates in Nebraska were so low that the poor railroads only made about 5 percent interest on their capitalization and that the amount of interest was not too high and, therefore, the secretaries refused to follow their instructions set forth in the resolution to prepare a schedule of rates for Nebraska.
"This conclusion leaves but one thing for the board to do, and that is to let the secretaries go. There is no further use for these men. They cannot earn their salaries. If the rates are too low in their opinion they should be sent home and some others put in their place who can look at the rate question through the eyes of the people.
"There is no doubt that the whole proceeding was a put-up job from the inception of the resolution introduced by Cowdery down to the final report made by Garber.
"The secretaries are willing that the people shall pay rates that net the stockholders a big interest on their stock, that more resembles a sponge than anything else, because it contains so much water.
"There is only one rational conclusion to come to and that is the majority of the board of transportation dictated what the report should be. They are all standing for a re-election and have surveyed the field, and having concluded that the corporations will succeed in the coming campaign, cast their lines in that direction.
"But they have reckoned without their host. A nomination this year will not be equivalent to an election, and if the railroads should succeed in placing Benton, Cowdery, or Steen in nomination, no power that can be brought to bear will elect them.
"They have refused to listen to the voice of the people and now we ask that they save the people $7,500 by letting those secretaries go. If they must keep up the force then for God's sake get men who understand the wishes of the people."
Until THE FARMERS' CONGRESS.
Governor Thayer says that he will appoint any farmers in this state as delegates to the tenth annual Farmers' Congress of the United States, which will be held at Council Bluffs August 20, 27, and 28, on application to him. All that the governor asks is that the farmers appointed will guarantee that they will attend the congress. A written application to the governor is all that is necessary to secure an appointment. Owing to the nearness of Council Bluffs it is expected that a great many of the Nebraska farmers will attend.
Reduced rates have been secured on nearly every railroad in the United States, and an attempt is being made also to secure reasonable hotel rates during the congress both at Omaha and Council Bluffs.
STATE BUSINESS NEWS.
Articles of incorporation of the Culberson canal, irrigating, and water supply company were filed with the secretary of state this morning. The principal place of transacting business is to be at Culberson. The authorized capital stock is $100,000. Among the incorporators are George E. Banks, M.C. Reynolds, and twelve others.
Articles of incorporation of the Fox & Mitchell co-operative painting company were also filed this morning. The place of doing business is to be in Lincoln. Capital stock, $100,000.
The state board of transportation has received notice from the national commission that a hearing on the rate question would be held at Washington July 8. It is proposed at that session to make a reduction in grain and provision rates from the Missouri river to Chicago.
The Barnes divorce case, which has attracted probably more attention than any other matrimonial dissolution for several years in Lincoln, ended today in Mrs. Barnes securing a legal separation from Theodore F. Barnes, her husband. Mr. George W. Berg, who had been appointed as referee, filed his report today, finding that Barnes had been guilty of extreme cruelty to his wife.
Barnes fought the petition of his better half to the bitter end, but failed in his efforts to continue the partnership. Barnes is to pay $3,000 for the support of the child until she is eighteen years of age. Seven dollars a week is to be paid for her support until May, 1865, and after that period $15 per month is to be paid by him. Mrs. Barnes is to have the custody of the child, and was willing to accept $500 in lieu of alimony from her wealthy husband. The court decreed that Barnes should pay the costs of the suit, amounting to $600, to secure the fulfillment of this contract. Barnes was forced to execute a deed of trust to Mrs. Barnes' attorney covering land in section 20.
Mrs. Kcheichenlu Hasnumsen, who is seeking a divorce from her husband, George Hasnumsen, claims that her husband is trying to dispose of his property during the suit in order to prevent paying her any alimony. Judge Field listened to the two sides of the question today and became satisfied that the assertions of the woman were correct. He ordered Hasnumsen to pay $600 into court by August 1, and $50 per month thereafter until the case is disposed of. The Judge further decreed that Hasnumsen should not sell any of his land until that time under penalty of arrest and imprisonment.
There was a clash of authorities in Lincoln today, as to whether the courts of Butler county or the tribe of Lancaster were to have the custody of one Indian, Elkmost. The man is charged with selling mortgaged property, D.F. King of David City being the complaining witness. Elkmost was arrested by the police here on receipt of a telegram from the sheriff of that county, and that officer came up today to take charge of the prisoner. Meanwhile, a friend of Elkmost had besieged the county judge and secured a writ of habeas corpus to hope the prisoner here. The writ was served just as the sheriff of Butler county was about to leave for the depot with his prisoner, and Elkmost fell back into the hands of the authorities here.
The Lelghton-Wilson case was brought before the public gaze today. This was the case in which Mrs. Harriet W. Lelghton filed a counter-petition to the suit for $5,000 brought against her by Mrs. Harriet Wilson, the matron of the Willard home. Mrs. Lelghton admits having made the startling statements concerning Mrs. Wilson's actions towards male inmates of the institution, but claims it was before the managers of the home, who were investigating the conduct of Mrs. Wilson. Mrs. Lelghton claims that she made those disclosures to nobody else. Mrs. Wilson denies $600 in damages from Mrs. Wilson on the grounds that that woman has caused to be printed the libelous statement that Mrs. Lelghton was a thief.

The Commercial and Industrial Prosperity of the State be Sacrificed to a Delusive Sentimentalism?
The State Banker, Merchants and Manufacturers Organize for Mutual Protection Against the Prohibitory Amendment to the Constitution, In Order to Avert the Blight that Always Follows in the Wake of Prohibition.
We, the Undersigned Business Men of the State of Nebraska, In view of the results apparent from the attempts heretofore made to enforce prohibition in neighboring States, believing that prohibition is not a true aid to temperance, do assert as a business proposition that the incorporation of a prohibitory amendment into the Constitution of the State of Nebraska will be inimical to the best interests and material welfare of the people of the State, by retarding its development, depressing real estate values, producing a disastrous stagnation of commerce and stoppage of immigration;
Therefore, for our mutual protection and the maintenance of our trade interests, we do hereby organize ourselves into an association, to be known as the State Business Men's and Bankers' Association, with headquarters at Lincoln, Neb., and auxiliary branches in the cities, towns and villages throughout the State. And we do hereby advise and urge our friends to work and vote against said prohibitory amendment at the election to be held November 4, 1890:

wnxhi'd It until the surface was rather sand ;
for fast tlmo , but all this ban now bcci
changed , and the track Is better thai
ever before. It has always been regardei
as the best training track In th
country , and has never been what might b
termed a slow track , as ycarafter year horse
have lowered their records hero and madi
llmu that they were unable to equal on mi ;
other track In cither eastern or western clr
units.
The changes now being made are owing t <
the fact that the leading horsemen of Onialii

PiTT. iifito , Pa. , June 27.This was the las
day of the International Sunday school con
ventlon. JacolM of Chicago road the roper
of the executive committee , recommcndln'
that the second world's and seventh trlcnnln
International Sunday school conventions b <
hold together. The report was adopted am'
It won decided to hold both conventions In St
Louis In 1SIM , the tlmo to bo set later.
At the afternoon session Miss Wlllard
president of the Women's Christian TemKsr |
mice union , a poke in support of the proposl
tion to set apart four Sundays of each yea
to be devoted to teaching temporunco in Sab
bath schools , the International committee U
furnish appropriate lessons. After n length :
discussion It was amended by B. F. Jones
chairman of the International executive com
mlttco , and adopted. It says , In part , : In
setting a course of lessons for the year tin
lesson committee found In the course of UK
llrst quarter a suitable tcmpcranci
lessen and therefore they made tin
lesson for the thirteenth Sunday a missionary
lesson. In another quarter for the same yeai
they found In the regular course n suitable
missionary lesson. Therefore for tlio thlr
teonth Sunday of that quarter they hav <
riven temperance lo'sons. For the two re
maining quarters of that year they have se
lected a temperance lesson and a missionary
lesson , leaving It optional with the schools tc
use either. The committee cannot say In ad
vance Just what lessons will occur In anj
year , but think It possible the selection foi
other years may be like the selection for 18W ,
The lesson committee for.Greut Britain urgot
that the commltto continue U ) have optional
temperance lessons , stating that if only tern-
pcrauco lessons many schools would not use
them , but select others , and the plan would
bo Impaired. The executive committee there
fore recommends that the convention approve
the action of the lesson commltteo , as Indi
cated In the lessons for ISltt. and further
recommend to publishers of lesson helps
throughout the United States and Canada
to make notes upon temperance lessons as
full as upon ether lessons , and also to
specially emphasize the subject of temper
ance in all lessons In the regular course
where it can bo suitably done.
Aftcrsover.il Interesting addresses on the
work of the convention Until adjournment

Nr.w LONDON , Juno 27. As usual , great
throngs of people congregated today to see
the annualfour-inllo , straiglmwny clght-oarcd
race between the Yale and Harvard crews.
Yale won in 21:20 : ; Harvard 21-IO. : Tills is
Yale's llfth successive victory and the record
now stands in the four-mile races : Yale 0 ,
Harvard 0. For three miles the , race was one
of the finest struggles ever seen on the Thames
course. At no time In that distance was
either crew able to got a decisive lead , mid
during that time Harvard bad n slight lead
twice. Yalo. however , by grand spurting
and staying qualities quickly recovered first
position by a small margin. After passing
the third milo Hag Harvard's stroke scorned
to lese its effectiveness , which ,
with a perceptible roll to their
shell and three or four slight swerves by the
'
cockswain caused the Harvard boat to'drop
slowly but surely astern. Yule finished
strong , keeping up their long , steady swing
with almost faultless precision , crossing tlio
line and resting on their oars without the
slightest sign of distress , while in the Har
vard boat at least three men clearly showed
the effects of their determined efforts.
The Columbia-Harvard freshman race was
roared-ia the dark and proved a rather un
satisfactory affair. The race was two miles ,
and the referee gave it to Columbia bv half a
'
length. Time , 10:51. : In the last ha'lf mile ,
it is stated , the steamer ran across the bow
of the Harvard boat so near as to interfere
with their work.

A Hag should not only wave on every school
house , but on every church. The ex-presi
dent made a stirring address on the subject :
"Obligations of the Government to Old Sol
diers. " The pledge made to soldiers ,
ho said , for his services wcro Just
us distinct and unmistakable as wcro
uver made to the bondholder. All
parties were agreed that they should bo vecom-
perlsed , and that great statesmen whom
Providence selected had repeated and reiter
ated the .same great truth in one of those
wonderful messages ho read to the Ameri
can people. In conclusion Mr. Hayes said :
"Wo want no charity , but lustico and our
. "
rights. _

Omaha and Local Horsemen Will Greatly Improve Union Park.
ARRANGING FOR CLEARER WATER
Moving in AVI 11 Unco at Mount Vernon on the Fourth Trial Fired for UN
Amidst a rather quiet way, the Driving Park Association has been making great improvement at Union driving park during the past week. The principal work has been on the track, which has been greatly improved. The inside has been thrown out, so that the track is now in as good condition as ever, or will be when the work is completed tonight. This is one of the best tracks in the country, and stands very highly both among trotting and running horsemen all over the United States. During the past two years it has had but little care and was seriously in need of repairs. It was badly worn near the pole, and of late the best track has been fully twelve feet from the fence making a long slope. The rains have also washed it until the surface was rather sandy for fast time, but all this has now been changed, and the track is better than ever before. It has always been regarded as the best training track in the country, and has never been what might be termed a slow track, as year after year horses have lowered their records here and made them that they were unable to equal on any other track in either eastern or western circuits.
The changes now being made are owing to the fact that the leading horsemen of Omaha have become interested in the park, and the majority of them now have horses in training there, and it may be stated right here that, with the possible exceptions of two or three big racing meetings, there has never been such a larger or more valuable lot of horses at the park than at the present time. Messrs. Brown, Mr. Slavin and Paxton of Omaha have each a valuable string stabled there, to say nothing of the dozens owned in this city and stables from all parts of Kansas, Iowa, and Missouri. In fact, the park is getting to be quite a little world all by itself, and over the morning the track is one of the busiest places imaginable.

Cleaning the Reservoir.
The water is now all out of the Clinton avenue reservoir and the work of cleaning it and repairing the walls is in progress. As the last of the water drained away yesterday morning, dozens of men and boys engaged in a reckless rough-and-tumble to capture the fish that had been forced up to the reservoir from the mains from the river. One fish over two feet long was taken out and bushels of smaller ones and crawfish. The bottom part of the reservoir shows where the crawfish have been at work undermining the bricks, which have been washed out over quite a strip. The greater part of the floor and the walls generally are in good condition and all repairs will be completed by tonight. There are several wagon loads of mud to be removed, but not as much as was expected in view of the fact that the reservoir had not been cleaned for nearly two years. Hereafter it will be cleaned twice every year.
All work will be completed tomorrow and the water will be turned in again.

At last, the result of the census enumeration can be made public, but although anxiously anticipated for some time, it will bring disappointment. The population of Council Bluffs will fall short of 21,000. Although it's true. The supervisor recently received a telegram from Washington stating that the order of June enjoins the utmost secrecy, has been modified, and that in cases of any size in the district, when great interest was felt in the result, the supervisor might approximate, but was ratified against giving exact figures in certain cases that yet had to be made. Salt Captain Flight: "It will be below 20,000 and in my estimation, it will be a trial short of 30,000, although I have not yet made a final count. If they will let us count in the deaf and dumb Institution, which is just outside the city; we will have nearly five hundred more than at present, and there are several other similar cases. I know that everyone will be disappointed, but it can't be helped. I am positive that other cities that have more than we have are making a showing of 40,000 or 50,000, but they are illegally inflating the returns. I don't see any other way, except that we must take our medicine."

The Fire
Davenport, Ia., June 27. The flames which have been burning in the Farmhill mine have burst from the mouth of the mine tonight and efforts to extinguish the fire have proven fruitless. The rescuing party was compelled to stop work, but the district inspectors bravely volunteered to finish it themselves. The task is an extremely dangerous one.
Knights of Pythias Grand Conclave, at Milwaukee, Wis., June 18, 1879.
For this great occasion, excursion tickets will be sold from all principal points in the United States and Canada to Milwaukee and return via the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway at half fares.
As its name indicates, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is the direct route to Milwaukee; and as the camp ground for the Uniformed Knights (to which point cars and trains will be run through without transfer) is located directly on this line, it will be seen that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has several advantages over other routes which are unable to furnish such facilities and visiting Knights, their families and friends should bear this in mind when purchasing excursion tickets.

Provisional Statement for Holding the International Convention of Sunday Schools.
PITTSBURGH, Pa., June 27. This was the last day of the International Sunday school convention. Jacob of Chicago road the chairman of the executive committee, recommending that the second world's and seventh triennial International Sunday school conventions be held together. The report was adopted and it was decided to hold both conventions in St. Louis in 1885, the time to be set later.
At the afternoon session, Miss Wilard, president of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, spoke in support of the proposal to set apart four Sundays of each year to be devoted to teaching temperance in Sabbath schools, the International committee will furnish appropriate lessons. After a length discussion, it was amended by B.F. Jones, chairman of the International executive committee, and adopted. It says, in part: In setting a course of lessons for the year, the lesson committee found in the course of the first quarter a suitable temperance lesson and therefore they made the lesson for the thirteenth Sunday a missionary lesson. In another quarter for the same year, they found in the regular course a suitable missionary lesson. Therefore, for the thirteenth Sunday of that quarter, they have given temperance lessons. For the two remaining quarters of that year, they have selected a temperance lesson and a missionary lesson, leaving it optional with the schools to use either. The committee cannot say in advance just what lessons will occur in any year, but think it possible the selection for other years may be like the selection for 1889. The lesson committee for Great Britain urged that the committee continue to have optional temperance lessons, stating that if only temperance lessons many schools would not use them, but select others, and the plan would be impaired. The executive committee therefore recommends that the convention approve the action of the lesson committee, as indicated in the lessons for 1889, and further recommends to publishers of lesson helps throughout the United States and Canada to make notes upon temperance lessons as full as upon other lessons, and also to specially emphasize the subject of temperance in all lessons in the regular course where it can be suitably done.
After several interesting addresses on the work of the convention, until adjournment was had.
YALE-HARVARD RACE.
The Former Crow Scores an Easy Victory.
NEW LONDON, June 27. As usual, great throngs of people congregated today to see the annual four-mile, straightaway eight-carred race between the Yale and Harvard crews. Yale won in 21:20; Harvard 21:10. This is Yale's fifth successive victory and the record now stands in the four-mile races: Yale 5, Harvard 0. For three miles the race was one of the finest struggles ever seen on the Thames course. At no time in that distance was either crew able to get a decisive lead, and during that time Harvard had a slight lead twice. Yale, however, by grand spurting and staying qualities, quickly recovered first position by a small margin. After passing the third mile, the stroke of the Harvard boat seemed to lose its effectiveness, which, with a perceptible roll to their shell and three or four slight swerves by the coxswain, caused the Harvard boat to drop slowly but surely astern. Yale finished strong, keeping up their long, steady swing with almost faultless precision, crossing the line and resting on their oars without the slightest sign of distress, while in the Harvard boat at least three men clearly showed the effects of their determined efforts.
The Columbia-Harvard freshman race was rowed in the dark and proved a rather unsatisfactory affair. The race was two miles, and the referee gave it to Columbia by half a length. Time, 10:51. In the last half mile, it is stated, the steamer ran across the bow of the Harvard boat so near as to interfere with their work.
SUCCESS.
Grand Army Day at the Chautauqua.
OTTUMWA, Kan., June 27. Grand Army day of the Chautauqua association has been a pronounced success. Over twenty thousand people assembled in the auditorium today to listen to addresses by General Alger and Ex-President Hayes. Mr. Hayes in his speech said there could be no politics in the Grand Army of the Republic or Loyal Legion, but there must be a full measure of patriotism. A flag should not only wave on every schoolhouse, but on every church. The ex-president made a stirring address on the subject: "Obligations of the Government to Old Soldiers." The pledge made to soldiers, he said, for their services were just as distinct and unmistakable as were those made to the bondholder. All parties were agreed that they should be reciprocated, and that great statesmen whom Providence selected had repeated and reiterated the same great truth in one of those wonderful messages he read to the American people. In conclusion, Mr. Hayes said: "We want no charity, but justice and our rights."
Corbin Resigns.
PHILADELPHIA, June 27. Austin Corbin formally resigned from the presidency of the Reading road today and A.A. McLeod, vice president and general manager, succeeded him. In his letter of resignation, dated London, Mr. Corbin says that several times since the discharge of the receiver and the transfer of the property into the hands of the company he had prepared to retire, but something had been prevented by circumstances. He further says there has been accomplished substantially what he set out to do, and it only remains to conduct the growing business of the company with intelligence, prudence, and care what is guaranteed by the skill and energy of Mr. McLeod, whom he recommends as his successor. Corbin still retains his position as a member of the voting trust.
An Agreement Reached.
WASHINGTON, June 27. The conferees on the post office appropriation bill have reached an agreement. The senate recedes from the amendment increasing by $50,000 the appropriation for detecting depredations in the mails. The house agrees to the senate amendment appropriating $125,000 to cover half the cost of transportation and compensation of clerks employed in assorting mails on steamships. The addition of $50,000 for the pay of post office clerks made by the senate over the original appropriation was reduced in conformity to $50,000.
Treaties With the King of Uganda.
Cape Town, June 27. A letter received from Dr. Peters describes the treaties concluded with the king of Uganda, ousting the English from that country. The letter from Lieutenant Tiedeman says that Uganda is a land of waste. Everywhere are the skeletons and corpses, showing traces of murder by burning and every other horrible method. Mohammed Blessington and three companions were hanged at Bagamoyo for the murder of a German merchant eight years ago. The Arabs have gone into universal mourning as a mark of resentment.
Collision on the Erie.
BUFFALO, N.Y., June 27. It is reported that two freight trains collided on the Delaware division of the Erie. One engineer and two firemen were wounded. Particulars cannot be obtained tonight.

Empirical Happenings.
SIOUX CITY, Neb., June 27. [Special Telegram to THE BEE:] Last night the board of trade and citizens generally, accompanied by the Northwestern band, repaired to Beals' hotel and serenaded William Shipman, esq., the assistant general freight agent of the Fremont, Ewing, and Missouri Valley railroad. After the serenade, Major Adams addressed Mr. Shipman and informed him that the gathering was for the purpose of showing the appreciation of Mr. Shipman's efforts in entertaining the people in Omaha during the time of the excursion of the board of trade and business men of Sioux City to Omaha; and assured him that the latch string was always on the outside for him any time he visited Sioux City. Mr. Shipman responded in a happy manner.
Martha Drekon and John Thomas were broke into a boxcar of the B. & M. at Bestwick on Wednesday and broke open a box; and stole some of their contents, were taken out of jail in Hodge Cloud last night upon a warrant signed by Justice Hobinson charging them with burglary and brought back to Superior.

Torment in Kentucky.
LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 27. - Dispatches from all parts of the state report mill failures from the heat, the thermometer running from 85 to 100 at different points. In this city there were three deaths today.
If not remedied in season, is liable to become habitual and chronic. Drastic purgatives, by weaning the bowels, confirm, rather than cure, the evil.
Ayer's Pills, being mild, effective, and strengthening in their action, are generally recommended by the community as the best of specifics.
"Having been subject, for years, to constipation, without being able to find much relief, I at last tried Ayer's Pills. I deem it both a duty and a pleasure to testify that I have derived great benefit from their use. For over two years past I have taken one of these pills every night before retiring. I would not willingly be without them." G.W. Holloway, 25 East, Mall st., Carlisle, Pa.
"I have been taking Ayer's Pills and using them in my family since 1857, and cheerfully recommend them to all in need of a safe and effective cathartic."
John M. Hoggs, Louisville, Ky.
"For eight years I was afflicted with constipation, which at last became so bad that the doctors could do no more for me. Then I began to take Ayer's Pills, and soon the bowels recovered their natural and regular action, so that now I am in excellent health." S.H. Longbridge, Bryan, Texas.
"Having used Ayer's Pills, with good results, I fully endorse them for the purposes for which they are recommended."

SUFFERERS FROM
AVIANA Delicacy,
Youthful Indulgence,
Lost Alum.
Your Own Physician has from the effects of youthful imprudence brought upon you a state of health that has reduced the general vigor so much as to threaten almost every other case, and the real cause of your trouble is probably over concern, they are designed for every thing but the right one, how withstanding the many valuable remedies that might have been produced for the relief of these ailments of indiscretion, annually many more people suffer. During our extensive practice we have experimented with and produced new and concentrated formulas. The Bostonian syrup, with its prescribed use, offers certain and respectably cure, as hundreds of cases in our practice have proven to perfect health after all other remedies failed. Therefore, purely for the purpose of relief, we recommend the following prescription.
Pyrthroxylon coca, 1 drachm,
Probertin, 1 drachm
Thelonday Dioleta, 1 oz drachm.
Cel ement, 8 grains.
St. Ignatius marina, 1 oz.
Elephant grass, 1 oz.
Make Gophs. Take 1 pill at 3 pm and another on crawling to bed in some cases it will be necessary for the patient to take two pills at bedtime, making the number this of a day. This remedy is also good for urinary and stomach conditions of nervous debility and weakness in ovulation, and especially in those cases resulting from imprudence. The restorative powers of this preparation are truly astonishing and the continuance not only for a short time, but also for a prolonged period, the languid, debilitated, appeared condition will soon be turned into one of renowed life and vigor.
As we are constantly in receipt of letters of inquiry regarding this remedy, we would say to those who would prefer to obtain it without remitting the money, by sending $1 firmly sealed packet containing 60 pills, carefully composed, will be sent by return post immediately from our patent laboratory, or we will furnish 6 pounds, which will cure most ailments, for $85.

A few dnys n o n committee of city onicials
consisting of tlio mayor , treasurer , comp

called on tlio county commissioners to sco
what could bo done ubout raising the assess

In Tin : UKE nt the time , this conference was
productive of two things , u great deal
of tulle heavily charged with anxiety
to maUu a show of doing something , mid the
appointment of Comptroller Cloodrich , Coun
cilman Olscn and City Treasurer Rush ns u
committee to examine ! the assessors' returns ,
plelt out and refer to the county commission
ers for change all Inconsistencies. In other
words this committee was to seek out and
push to correction the llagrant abuses of
which these assessors' returns It Is alleged
nroso full , and thus secure un increase lu the
assessment ,
A f tor waiting the length of time for Messrs.
Goodrich , Olson and Hush to make u start
upon their work a representative of TUB UIH :
called upon Mr. Hush yesterday morning and
inquired as to what progress the committee
wus making.
"Our committee has not done a thing , " was
the reply , * 'nor ain't going to. What can bo
done on so great n Job as that of going over
nil those assessors books by July 10. which is
the last day for making complaints I"
"Then that conference with its great lot of
talk was only n farce , waa itl" asked the re
porter.
"That's what It was simply a farce , and
nothing more in the world. It was a siUy
move , lit least so I think , but you sco the ma
jority didn't consider how short a time there
was to do the work in. "
Passing Into Comptroller Ooodrluh's ofllt-o
that gentleman was interrogated on the
subject.
"I have made an appointment to meet
Olscn on Monday , " said Mr. Goodrich , "to
do something about getting the returns of the
big corporation like the waterworks and
street car companies changed. As for any
thing less than that size wo of course won't
have time to do a thing. In order to give
people a show wo must issue notices for thorn
to appear , summon witnesses , etc. , etc. This
can't bo done in a day. "
' Why didn't you folks begin the job
earlier I"
"Don't ask mo I'm only ono of them. I
don t know why it didn't begin earlier.
The reporter happened to meet u county
commissioner and the latter , pulling out u

A Yoiinft Woman AVIio Claims to be u
AVorltl Correspondent.
A few weeks ago a spare young lady called
nt TIIU Bui : ofllco and presented a written
card bearing the name , Helen Anthony
lingers. She represented herself to be a staff
correspondent of the Now York World and
asked for all the data the newspaper oflieo
niTordcd for a write-up of the city , which she
intended to prepare fi r the World. She was
treated courteously upon her several visits ,
mid while the failure on her part to exhibit
the usual credentials was very noticeable ,
nho was given the bcnollt of the doubt nnd a
very brief personal notice In Tin : Um : . The
World-Herald gave her an extended notice
find reproduced the innocent little storv she
spun of hors > clf to the cfTcct that she was the
ouly original "Bah" who writes very breezy
feminine gosdip for the eastern press.
A week later the lady called to request a
photo of the editor , which she said was
wanted for use in a write-up of Tin : Bin ; to
bo prepared for the paper she claims to rop-
rt'sent. Mr. Hosowater was in Chicago , but
she insisted that the photo must be mulled to
Now York at once , Tlio business oillco people
llnally tlshcd one out and gave it to th'o fair
creature.
Soon after a report readied the oflleo that
'Mrs. Kogers had loft the Piixton hotel with
out paying her hill , followed by another re
port that upon being pressed she had paid it.
Lute last week Mrs. Hogers called upon the
managing editor and asked for n letter of in
troduction to Governor Thayer , stat
ing that she proposed to go to
Lincoln and interview his excellency upon
the political situation. The letter was given
her and so framed that the governor might
expect her to present credentials as a World
correspondent before granting the desired in
terview.
The lady's conduct , so far as observed in
Tin : HII : : ollico , has been above criticism , but
nt Lincoln she is said to have acted Im
prudently , going so far , the newspapers say ,
us to leave that city without paying her
hotel hills.

It is expected that a light is to bo made on
the selection of professor of manual traltiitig
at the high school. The professor's place has
not been an easy ono. Willie ho has been
sustained by the board , ho has , nevertheless ,
been worried by the attempts of politicians
to oust him from his position. "There
is n man at work now mimed Wigmaii , "
said a member ot the board "who wants Mr.
Bumunif s place , hut I don't think ho will
got it. The position is not to bo in the gift
of politicians , but rather to bo bestowed upon
men who are ouaiifled for the position. Such
a man I consider Mr. Bumunn. Such a man
ho is considered by ninny of the members ,
though some of them and especially some of
the Incoming members , who are politicians
from the word go , want Mr. Buntann ro-
moved. He has only done his duty and has
done it well and .there Is no reason why ho
should uo discharged. Anvmuii who witnessed
the display made by his class last week
in Tint Bui : building must have noticed the
excellence of the work which of itself "spoke
more loudly of Mr. Bumann's competency
than his enemies can speak in crying him
down. "
The selection of a superintendent will not
take place till the third Monday In .July.
There are half n do-sen applicants for the
pluco though Mr. James seems to bo iu the

CAST RAISES HIS ASSESSMENT,
Officials Discover That They Have Not
the Time.
THE INEQUALITY IN THE SHOWING,
What Home of the County's Officials
Have to Say Concerning the High
State of the Art by the Latest
ASSESSMENT.
A few days ago a committee of city officials
consisting of the mayor, treasurer, comptroller
and finance committee of the council
called on the county commissioners to see
what could be done about raising the assessment of property in Omaha. As fully related
In The Bee at the time, this conference was
productive of two things, a great deal
of talk heavily charged with anxiety
to make a show of doing something, and the
appointment of Comptroller Goodrich, Councilman Olson and City Treasurer Rush as a
committee to examine the assessors' returns,
pick out and refer to the county commissioners for change all inconsistencies. In other
words, this committee was to seek out and
push to correction the flagrant abuses of
which these assessors' returns It is alleged
are rife, and thus secure an increase in the
assessment.
A fact waiting the length of time for Messrs.
Goodrich, Olson and Rush to make a start
upon their work, a representative of THE BEE:
called upon Mr. Rush yesterday morning and
inquired as to what progress the committee
was making.
"Our committee has not done a thing," was
the reply, "nor ain't going to. What can be
done on such a great job as that of going over
all those assessors' books by July 10, which is
the last day for making complaints."
"Then that conference with its great lot of
talk was only a farce, was it?" asked the reporter.
"That's what it was simply a farce, and
nothing more in the world. It was a silly
move, at least so I think, but you see the majority didn't consider how short a time there
was to do the work in."
Passing into Comptroller Goodrich's office
that gentleman was interrogated on the
subject.
"I have made an appointment to meet
Olson on Monday," said Mr. Goodrich, "to
do something about getting the returns of the
big corporations like the waterworks and
street car companies changed. As for anything less than that size we of course won't
have time to do a thing. In order to give
people a show we must issue notices for them
to appear, summon witnesses, etc. This
can't be done in a day."
"Why didn't you folks begin the job
earlier?" asked the reporter.
"Don't ask me, I'm only one of them. I
don't know why it didn't begin earlier.
The reporter happened to meet a county
commissioner and the latter, pulling out a
7 percent said:
"I have some pointers here for that committee of city officials who have made such a
brave break at trying to raise the assessment
by not turning their hand over as yet. Notice these personal tax figures as given in to
the assessor. They represent in each instance the machinery, buildings and entire
plant of the concern:
American Waterworks Co $13,500 $12,000
Omaha Gas Co $60,000 $60,000
Omaha Street Railway Co $1,500,000 $1,500,000
Thomas-Klondike Electric Co 2,100 2,100
Omaha & Council Bluffs Bridge Co 1,800 $1,000,000
Hammond & Co $11,000 $12,000
Powell & Co 13,000 12,000
Ariane-Davidson Co. $20,000 $24,000
Omaha Poking Co 13,000 7,000
Omaha and Lincoln Steel Construction Co. 71,250 73,500
Then let this brave council committee
lump onto the chattel-mortgage wolves in
Omaha, There are some twenty-five of them
and the county clerk's books show they loan
about $10,000 every month the year round,
and yet not a fourth of them pay a penny of
taxes nor ever have."
That tired feeling now so often heard of, is
entirely overcome by Hood's Sarsaparilla,
Which gives mental and bodily strength.
IS SUM?
A Young Woman Who Claims to be a
Worthington Correspondent.
A few weeks ago a spare young lady called
at THE BEE office and presented a written
card bearing the name, Helen Anthony
Hingers. She represented herself to be a staff
correspondent of the New York World and
asked for all the data the newspaper office
furnished for a write-up of the city, which she
intended to prepare for the World. She was
treated courteously upon her several visits,
and while the failure on her part to exhibit
the usual credentials was very noticeable,
she was given the benefit of the doubt and a
very brief personal notice In The Bee. The
World-Herald gave her an extended notice
and reproduced the innocent little story she
spun of horsefeathers to the effect that she was the
only original "Bah" who writes very breezy
feminine gossip for the eastern press.
A week later the lady called to request a
photo of the editor, which she said was
wanted for use in a write-up of THE BEE to
be prepared for the paper she claims to represent. Mr. Hosowater was in Chicago, but
she insisted that the photo must be mailed to
New York at once. The business office people
finally fixed one out and gave it to the fair
creature.
Soon after a report reached the office that
"Mrs. Rogers had left the Plaxton hotel without paying her bill, followed by another report that upon being pressed she had paid it."
Late last week Mrs. Rogers called upon the
managing editor and asked for a letter of introduction to Governor Thayer, stating that she proposed to go to
Lincoln and interview his excellency upon
the political situation. The letter was given
her and so framed that the governor might
expect her to present credentials as a World
correspondent before granting the desired interview.
The lady's conduct, so far as observed in
THE BEE office, has been above criticism, but
at Lincoln she is said to have acted imprudently, going so far, the newspapers say,
as to leave that city without paying her
hotel bills.
A reporter saw her yesterday at the weather room, 115 South Twentieth street, and she denied the stories set forth. A demand was made upon her for the photo she secured through misrepresentation and she turned it over to the
reporter, A telegram from the New York
World was received at this office Thursday evening disclaiming any knowledge of Mrs.
Rogers.

A False Alarm of Fire.
An alarm of fire was sounded from Fifteenth and Capitol avenue at 11:15 yesterday morning. The large frame dwelling, No. 1505,
on the avenue was in a blaze. The house was
occupied by Mr. A. W. Wilcox and family,
who were all asleep at the time the fire broke
out, Mr. Wilcox was the first to wake and
found the room filled with smoke
and the walls hot with the flames, he sprang
from his bed and bravely succeeded in getting
his family out of the building in their night
clothes, A few small articles of clothing and
furniture were saved, but the bulk was
destroyed. The building was an
old one and burned like tinder
the flames enveloped the whole
structure before an alarm could be turned in.
When the department did arrive half a dozen
streams were turned on and the flames were
subdued as quickly as they had sprung up.
The building was valued at about $6,000.
Fully insured, but the owner, Mr. Lyons of Georgia Avenue, has for some time been anxious to have it removed. Being in the fire limit, it will now be torn down and a brick structure erected on its site. Mr. Wilcox loses $800 worth of furniture, insured for $1,600.

HILLING the Book Island With Rev
Other Penetrates.
Both Mr. Midleton and Mr. Holcomb any there is absolutely no foundation for the report that the former contemplates resigning rather than live in larger cities, in such a town as Cheyenne. He knew when the position was offered to him that his headquarters were to be moved from Omaha. While Mr. Midleton's headquarters will be in Cheyenne after July 1, no particular date has been fixed for opening the shops. The probabilities are they will not be running full until late next fall, though a few men may be put to work at once on light repairs.
The mechanics discharged at the engine shops on account of the "10 percent reduction will, it is understood, be given preference when the company commences to hire men at Cheyenne.
Contracts for grading the Book Island's Lincoln line have been let between South Omaha and the Platte River to McCormick Brothers of Washington, D.C.; R. A. Ware, St. Louis; T. McNulty, St. Joseph; H. M. King of Des Moines and William Callahan of this city. McNulty's contract also includes a short district beyond the river, but some portions of the Lincoln end of the line have not been located. At this end, however, the grading is to be pushed as rapidly as possible. A large force of men commenced breaking ground yesterday in the Platte River bottom between Springfield and North Bend. They have their camp at Springfield. Other large gangs are expected to begin operations the first of next week at various points. They will have several heavy cuts and big fills to make, the most extensive being in the Platte Valley, where a mile and a quarter long and forty-three feet high is required.
Supplying Kansas City.
The first big shipment of hogs from Omaha to Kansas City was made Thursday. A buyer from the Armour packing company down there put in an appearance at the stockyards, purchased thirty carloads of porkers and started them at 8 o'clock over the Missouri Pacific road towards Kansas City's mouth. They reached their destination at 6 o'clock yesterday. This is not only the largest but most important shipment of the kind that has ever been made.
Men to Take Their Places.
The twenty-three Union Pacific machinists and boiler makers who struck for higher wages at Legrand, Ore., last Sunday morning failed to gain their point. After a fruitless attempt to compromise with them, men to take their places were sent out yesterday from the shops in this city and will be there ready to commence work next Monday. Whether the strikers will quietly submit to this action is a matter that occasions the officials some apprehension.
Rock Island's Latest Offer.
P. E. Her has written a strong letter to Ed Dickinson about the new stockyards being established at San Francisco and asking him to consider an offer of the general superintendent's position. He thinks Mr. Dickinson is the man they want, has so informed Messrs. Armour, Swift and Morris of Chicago, and advises him to see them.
Official Announcement.
The official circular appointing P. B. Whitney general freight agent of the Union Pacific Missouri river division; J. V. Parker, assistant general freight agent to succeed Whitney at Kansas City, and H. A. Johnson, general agent of the system at San Francisco, was issued yesterday.

NEXT YEAR'S TEACHERS.
They Will Probably Be Elected
This Evening.
A special meeting of the board of education will be held tonight, at which, it is
thought, the teachers for the ensuing year will be elected. To this meeting the report
of the committee on teachers and text-books will be made.
This committee met last Wednesday night and considered the teachers for next year. It also considered the objections of members to several of the teachers now on the roll. In nearly every instance these objections were respected and the name of the party objected to was erased from the list. The names so removed will not be reported to tonight's meeting, and their selection by the board must be made on a special motion.
It is expected that a light will be made on the selection of professor of manual training at the high school. The professor's place has not been an easy one. While he has been sustained by the board, he has, nevertheless, been worried by the attempts of politicians to oust him from his position. "There is a man at work now named Wiggin," said a member of the board, "who wants Mr. Bumann's place, but I don't think he will get it. The position is not to be in the gift of politicians, but rather to be bestowed upon men who are qualified for the position. Such a man I consider Mr. Bumann. Such a man he is considered by many of the members, though some of them and especially some of the incoming members, who are politicians from the word go, want Mr. Bumann removed. He has only done his duty and has done it well and there is no reason why he should be discharged. An exhibit which witnessed the display made by his class last week in Tint Bui: building must have noticed the excellence of the work which of itself "spoke more loudly of Mr. Bumann's competency than his enemies can speak in crying him down."
The selection of a superintendent will not take place till the third Monday in July.
There are half a dozen applicants for the position though Mr. James seems to be in the lead.

William F. Beckel, Dudley Evans and Adolatoro Andrews, who attended the district convention of the Express Insurance association at Kansas City, returned home yesterday.

Sir Edward Malet , the British ambassador ,
bad an important conference with Chancellor
von Caprivi yesterday on the subject of the
opposition of tlio French government to the
East African agreement. The vote of M.
Hobit , tlio French ministerof foreign affairs ,
protesting against the establishment of a
protectorate over Zanzibar , affects
German claims within tlio sultanate
mid also the proposed acquisition of Mafia.
The conference resulted in an agreement to
take simultaneous action in opposing the
right of Franco to interfere. The English
government has prepared a reply to M. Kibot
to tno effect that if the sultan accepts the
protection of England or any other power the
treaty of IM52 gives France no right to object ,
and' further , that the Anglo-Gorman arrange
ment does not attack the indepcndenco
. of the sultan , protection not involving
/ subjection. The . .English , , votoMvviU t. bOj
presented to M. Kibot early next week and
will bo supported by a diplomatic intimida
tion of Germany's concurrence. The French
press reports that Lord Salisbury's reply was
handed to M. Kibot today are untrue.
The Keichsan/.eigor today vindicates the
Anglo-American iipi-ccmcnt as made in the
interest of the German East Africa company.
The colonial society's opposition which is based
upon tlio idea that German commercial ex
pansion has heotymcrillced , Is declared to bo
inconsistent with the facts. Instead of neg
lecting the interests of the company the gov
ernment , after the transfer of tlio coast line
with Malta , will assist the company to col"
oulze and the Germans who tire try
ing to develop trade and agri
culture on the coast will lind ample
support from the government. The article
Is obviously a response to the remarks made
by Prince Bismarck to a deputation that
Awaited on him recently. England , ho said ,
would crush the German trade in oust Africa.
The English might at the outset of the pro
tectorate treat with complaisance the Ham
burg merchants who have settled in
Zanzibar , but They would soon contrive to
oust them.
Baron Wlssmtmn , since his interviews
with the emperor and Chancellor vonCaprivi ,
has modified his dislike to thu concession of
Zanzibar to the English. At General von
Caprivi's ministerial dinner ho said there
were good harbors on thu main land from
which ready access could bo find lo the in
terior and ho was assured of immense devel
opments of Germany outside of the sphere of
Kngltsh competition. The Germans , ho
declared , need not bo jealous of
foreign traders , as there was ample room for
1 .everybody In Africa.
Baron Wissmaiin will not re turn to Zanzi
bar , but will bo attached to the colonial do-
pai'lment here.
The renewal of tlio drollmnd until ISO. ) has
been a subject of negotiations between
Signer Crisp ! , the Italian premier , and Count
Kulnoky , thu Austro-llungarian prlmo min
ister. The now treaty , though unsigned , is
effectively assured , the communications
which have already been exchanged commit
ting the governments to an extension of the
period of the compact.
Emperor William arrived at EMnoro this
nftornoon. Ho was met at the landing by
King Christian , Crown Prince Frederick and
Danish royalties and the clvlo and"
iillttiifyX authorities and given a cordial
greeting.
The porto has sent prlvato envoys to nor-
tin , Vienna and London on a mission relating
to the demands for Bulgarian independence ,
which are concurrent with Uussla's insist-
unco upon the Immediate payment of : iOXKi- , ( ,
two francs of war Indemnity. The
policy of the Bulgarian prime minister
is obscured , while Kussia is reported to bo
jiropariiiK to back up her demand by sending
the Black sea licet Into Turkish wu'tors.
The recent story about the undermining of
the war's palace at Gatschlna proves to have
been exaggerated. A barrel half full of
dynamite was found in the wine cellar , and
there Is no clue to how it eamo there. The
chief of the private police has been dismissed
on account of it.

the question of compensation to publishers ,
which is the basis of Cain's campaign at

tion than has been given to any single elec
tion in England in many years , and the con
test for the seat promises to bo waged with
a degree of bitterness that will sever many
lifo long friendships.
Cardinal Manning takes part in the cam
paign to the extent of writing a letter to Mr.
Cain , In which ho bids that gentlemad God
speed in the cause of whicli he has made
himself champion. The venerable prelate
writes that ho has always refused to take
part In political matters , but ho ivg.irds the
present Issue as a question of morals and ,
therefore , feels called upon to express his
views and declare his preferences.
The action of Barrow liberals In putting up

to secure full benefits the Illinois and Mich
igan canal should bo enlarged to the capacity
of the government canal , otherwise tlio pro
posed canal would be simply a local highway
of Importance toits immediate neighborhood ,
but regarded iis a national highway of but
comparatively small significance. Captain
Marshall in conclusion states that the canal
cannot bo of such value to commerce as it
would were the line throughout of greater
capacity. It is evident , lie says , that the
canal should bo built as a public necessity ,

corporation.

of the late General Crook. Senator Paddock
mudcu firm light for the adoption of his bill ,

$2,000 a year , but found that all the other
members of the committee favored $1,200 ,
and ho finally yielded. | The report Is unan
imously endorsed by the committee and Is
quite lengthy , embracing a full military his
tory of the noted warrior and many endorse
ments from civil and 'military associations
and legislatures , umofjg them being n
memorial from the citizens of Omaha and a
preamble and resolution ? from the Nebraska
legislature. In the coin-so of his report Sen
ator Paddock says : t 'Gcncrul Crook was
perhaps unique nn' itg the surviving-
generals of the civil war. His first honors
were won us the protector of the lives and
homes of the western ( frontiersmen against
the merciless savages , j Ills last guerdons
were gained as the fgloiid of the Indians
whom ho had conquered and tw the advocate
of honesty and justice I toward the nation's
wards. From his graduation nt the military
academy until his dcathf'his life was filled
with action. His military duty led htm into
every section of the cottiitry and never with
out signal distinction toThtmself. On the Pa-
ciflo coast , tlio plains Oftlio middle west , iu
the arid regions of Arizona and Now Mexico
and the rocky canons at the Sierra Mndra , no
less than on the battlefields of the south , ho
served his country with unsurpassed gal
lantry and matchless devotion to duty.
His bravery and soldlcrjy abilities wcro hon
ored by brevets during the civil war for
gallantry and meritorious service. His wis
dom , daring and supreme capacity in com
mand of troops for tliosubjugatlon ; of hostile
Indians mudo him the TCeipient of repeated
resolutions of thanks from the legislatures of
'the states and territories to whicli ho brought
peace. From the closo'pf the war until his
do'ith ho made his namd'aud the record of his
deeds a part of the imperishable history of
American valor , a lasting tradition among
every tribe of Indians'of , the west and a
never to be forgotten recollection
among the pioneers , , and frontiersmen.
His services rendered jpo slblo the rapid set
tlement of vast areas , of territory and the
development of mines and valleys inaccessible

His last distinguished 'Service rendered pos
sible the opening of tho. great Sioux reserva
tion , through the personal influence which ho
exercised in council cyor those whom he had

others will bear most cheerful wit
ness to the chivalrous nature and warm
heart of General Crook , while hundreds
oj his sick and suffering comrades , their
widows and orphans will join in the' testi
mony. General Crook has left his widow in
indigent fircumstancos and through 110 fault
of his own. Arduous and continuously
changing service , with the expense attendant
upon change and its steudv draft upon
pecuniary resources , through generosity to
comrades ami friend1) , is responsible Jo'- the

confident that the country , which owes so
much to his memory , will not permit Ids
widow to want. The sentiment which made
exceptional circumstances in tlio cases of the
widows of Admiral Furragut and of Generals

equally meritorious application In tlio ease of

COl.ONT.L IIDXDnilSON'S SI'RKCII ,
There Ian been no more effective spnecb
delivered in favor of the national elections
bill than that of Colonel Henderson of Iowa
In tlio house this afternoon. He reversed all
of tlio arguments used by the democrats
against the bill and mudo them .stand In favor
3t tlio measure. Colonel Henderson said that
lie regretted to learn from expressions on tlio
floor of the house and elsewhere that there
was n feeling in some quarters that the north
was unfriendly toward the south. Ho did
not believe there was any but the best of feel
ing in the north toward the south and south
ern interests upon the part of any ono. But
it does not follow , said ho , that because tlio
north is friendly towards the south that the
former is expected to call white black or
black white , and that the gravest wrongs
were to bo ignored or winked at.
Ho did not believe that any northern politi-
ticians would use tlio southern question for
party advantage. The suggestion , ho said ,
was as n two-edged sword. No ono used sec
tional questions more actively for political
purposes than southern democrats. Ho ap
pealed to tlio democratic side to say whore
the most dom.igogry was employed 'in refer
ence to the southern question. Education
and n lack of prejudice was what was wanted.
Great wrongs upon any pooiilo always visited
the . Colonel Henderson
wrong-doers. re
viewed the proposed law and said it was in
tended only to secure a fair and free exercise
of fnmdii.su and the honest results of votes
east. It was not intended to and would not
tlTect dl.sadvautagcou-ly the honest voters.
It wu > impersonal and non-sectional. If the
fi'auds do not exist such as it
s intended to thwart by this
: ) ill , then the republican platforms
were a lie and the republican orators and
u'ess have not the truth in them. Ho ap-
icaled to the honor and lalrness of repub-
icuns and asked them to stand by the meas
ure if they would bo bravo , honest and con
sistent. If these frauds about which repub-
ieaim have so much talked exist ho could
lot conceive that a republican would upon
my pretext glvo his support to the bill under
llseii'-slon. Not a man iu the house is there ,
10 said , but that kno\vsjthat election frauds ,
gigantic and criminal in { .ho highest degree ,
condoned for and endorocd by tlio demo
cratic party , exists. His. review of frauds ,
shown by congressional investigation and
courts , was conclusive unit showed
vhy the democrats were oppos-
ng tlio measure under discussion.
The democrats hung their heads In shame as
iroof after proof was brought forward illus-
rating the universality 'of election frauds.
Juoting from the speech of Mr. Hemphlll of
south Carolina , givcil In these dispatches
nst night , ho said that there could be no but-
er proof offered than that the democrats of
South Carolina did not Intend to suffer the
iluolc man to oxerclso the rights given him

vas defiance of the constitution the same us

While Mr. MoAdoo of New Jersey was

Enloe is evidently suffering from aeuto Indl

ITS ADDITION ASSt'llKD.
The action of the house yesterday in rcccd
ing from its disagreement to the sonata
amendment providing for an increase of the
salary of the commissioner and assistant com
mlslsoner of "tlio general land ollico iissurei
the adoption of Senator Paddock's amendment
mont to that effect. It may therefore be con
sidercd practically a law. At the be
ginning of the session Senator Paddock inj
traduced u bill to Increase the elllcieney oi
the general land ollleo , which provided for a
somewhat extensive reorganisation and read
justment of the forces. Finding that it
would bo difficult to secure an early passage
of this bill through both houses after a pro
tracted struggle In the senate , the sonutoi
quietly dropped his bill and took the moro
rapid method of preparing and offering an
amendment to the legislature appropriat
ing bill , which carried into effect mosl
of the features of tlio bill itself. Tlio amend
ment has now been concurred In by bcth
house.s ; It increases tlio salary of the com
missioner of tlio general land oftlco from
$1,000 to W.OOO. of the assistant commissioner
from $3,000 to si.WO and raises the salary of
the three principal clerks of tlio general land
ofllco from $ tSOO to $ a,000 , while at the same
time providing eight chiefs of divisions in the
land olllco at the same salary. These chiefs
of divisions are the principal clerks in the
general hind oftlco and the effect of the new
legislation will bo to slightly increase their
salary and to take them out from under the
oper ationof the civil service rules.
Judge Groff thoroughly endorses Senator
Padaock's plan of the reorganization of the
land ofllco and is greatly pleased at the re
sult. Ho o certainly cannot but feel highly
complimented by tlio universal commenda
tion bestowed upon his administration of the
land ollleo by speakers on both sides of the
house and from both political parties yester
day. Judge Payson , the chairman of the
house committee on public lands , delivered
an eulogy on Judge Groff as a tmblic ofllcer
which is probably without parallel in tlio his
tory of recent debate in the house. Ho said
that experience had demonstrated the
wisdom of President Harrison's judg
ment in the .selection of a commis
sioner who was a courteous gentleman ,
energetic , full of western push and executive
force , industrious , whilst with a record of
work which shows careful and conscientious
exertions. He characterized him as a lawyer
of eminence , bringing with him a reputation
asn Judge which has been fully sustained by
his decisions in numerous and important cases.
as ho ( Judge Payson ) porsolmlly knew now of
his record rendered since he lias been in office.
Judge Paysoti stated that his partiality for
him was not expressed because of a personal
friendship , although ho was glad to number

understood that at present there will , bo few
changes in the force of the senate. On a fair
distribution of patronage each senator would
bo entitled to ? 'J00 : ! a year in annual sal
aries , including messengers and vari

senator has at present a material increase
over these figures. Colorado is at present
credited with two messengers at $11 10 a year
each , ono employe of tlio folding room at
$ l,0'.i"i and ono employe on the laborers' roll

UNION I-ACinO LAND I'ATKXTS.
Secretary Noble today replied to the reso-
ution of Senator Plumb under datoofDu-
-embei-at , which called upon the Interior de-
Mirtment to report the cause for the wlth-
loldlng of patents within the limits of the
grants of the Union Pacific railway company
vhich are free from claims. There has been
i strong pressure brought to bear upon the
nterior department from hundreds of settlers
vim years ago purchased lands from llio
Julon Pacific railway comiMiiy and who
uivo not yet received patents for the com-
iletton of their titles to these lands. There
las also been great complaint from tlio
talcs ol Kansas and Nebraska owing to tlio
vithholding of the p'ltents and the railroad
ompuny and the purchasers under them
lave been enabled to escape state taxation.
Senator Paddock of- Nebraska has three
lines called upon the pi-o.ildr.nt and urged
i settlement of the question and the senator
las also called the attention of the chief oxee-
tlvu and secretary of the interior to the mat
er. In Ids reply Secretary Noble stutes that
ho delay in making a response has been duo
o very important questions connected with
ho right of the Union Pacific railroad to
amis claimed by it under Its grant , The per-
! cptlon of these difllcultles , SH.VH the bccro-
ary , Is not of recent origin. Daring the last
dmlnlstton lists involving thousands of ucron
f those lands were applied for bv the rall-
oed company , were duly considered and
signed by the proper clerks in tlio land olllco ,
approved by the commissioner and ordered to
patent by Uie secretary. Indeed , a latent for
pirt : of those lands was duly executed on
April a.i , ItoT , by President Cleveland for
'Wl.V.i'J UCIVM , but- was suspended before re-
cordinir. In cases when1 patents were not ex
ecuted the lists W'Tc ' siinp.-ndi-1 mid have
MI remained until 'the time of Hie
present dueislun It thus appears that imt
onlv was it deemed b > the previnun adminis
tration that the I'm.in piii'ilkruilruad com
pany uudunicU ( UtltJ tv IU luuUv iu
and Nebraska , but the right thereto had been
acknowledged by the commissioner of the
general land office and the secretary of the In
terior. This action was acquiesced In bv the
then President Cleveland. But at this Junc
ture a letter was received at the
nterior department from the Pacific
railroad commission , organised under
the net of March , 1SS7 , making inquiries us to
the 1 sue of these patents pending the exam
ination into the Indebtedness of the railroad
company to the United States , and the pros- !
dent. In transmitting ttio report of the com
mission , said : "The executive power must
be exorcised according to existing laws and
the executive discretion Is not probably broad
enough to feuch such a diniculty , yet the Fif
tieth congress , to whom this nuns-life was di
rected , adjourned without enacting unv
further legislation. The subject has now re
ceived sufficient notice and tlio conclusion has
been rouchod that the indebtedness of the
railroad company to the United States does
not authori/o this department to withhold
lands irranled to the company and for which
lists have been filed. No reason is deemed to
exist why the secretary should not
proceed to deliver to the Union Pa-
clllo company hinds which have been
earned , and It is his Intention to
certify those lists , commenelt.g at the eastern
portion of the unpatented lands In Kansas
and Nebraska where the lands are agricul
tural and have been sold and are In use bv
actual settlers. The patents executed al
ready by the previous executive will lie re
corded. Patents will ba Issued on the lists
approved by the former secretary and lists
not yet approved will bo examined in duo
order. This conclusion , I will add. Is in ac
cordance with the recommendation of the
commissioner of tlio general land office and
also witli tlio opinion of the assistant attor
ney general assigned to this department.

Tlio democrats arc capitulating on the
national election bill. They have proposed to
the republicans in the senate that they will
co-operate to bring about prompt action on
the silver , tariff , appropriation and other
general bills so as to bring about an adjourn
ment of congress before the end of July pro
vided the republicans will not ask to ta'ko up
the elections bill at this session mid permit
it to lie over in the senate committee. Ke-
publican senators have been telegraphed to
bo hero the first of next week for a confer
ence , when the proposition will bo consid
ered. It has been tlu ! purpo.io to take up tlio
election bill on Monday and when the elec
tions bill is reported from the senate commit
tee , lay aside the tariff bill and give the
former precedence.
coNriuiis : : : ONIIII : Htt.vr.it HIM , .
Both conference committees have now been
appointed on the silver bill. The house com
mittee , consisting of Kcprosontatives Conger ,
Walker of Massachusetts and Bland were
named by Speaker Heed shortly before ad
journment , last evening. This morning the
vice president named as the senate conferees
Senators Sherman , Jones of Nevada and
Harris. The delay In the appointment , as
wired last evening , was duo to the decision
on the part of the speaker and vice president
to select representatives and senators who
would meet till the requirements of a com
promise. It is believed that the selections
made are on this line. Representative
Conger , who was tlio champion of the house
measure , is understood to bo willing to re
cede from his advocacy of tlio bullion
redemption feature under pressure from
the senate. While ho insists that
the iiou.se 1)111 ) as originally passed would
have filled all the requirement of the situa
tion , ho now announces himself as prognrcd
to meet , the free coinage sentiment at least
half way and to provide fora bill whicli will
absorb the entire product of the American
mines. Kopresentativo Walker of Massachu
setts Is a well known monomctalllst. He is
present absent from the city , but is expected
to return early in the coming week. His
friends , however , state that tic will not be
found In the Way of liberal legislation as long
as It stops short of nbsoluto and unlimited
.coinage. The position of Hopresontu-
tlvo . Blund , of , , , Missquri ls .j too
well known to' require " iromiricntsT' '
On the side of the senate Senators Jones and
Harris will control. Senator Harris is even
more radical in his vlows on the silver ques
tion than Senator Jones. When the bill was
under discussion in the senate he opposed the
issue of certificates on constitutional
grounds , believing that all bullion
should bo coined and should not
bo represented by any substitute for
mere convenience sake. Senator Jones ,
while openly in favor of unlimited coinage ,
believes that a measure- which will provide
for the purchase of - tr > 00omJouiiees ' ol silver
a month upon whieli certificates shall bo is-
sued redeemable in coin or lawful money ,
will be temporarily at least a satisfactory so
lution of llio problem. The position of
Senator Sherman is not so well defined. His
attitude in debute is bettor known. There is
a general belief , however , that he will not
use his efforts for a measure which will se
cure executive approval and afford relief to
the country.
Senator Teller this evening said : "I have
no doubt of results. The conference com
mittee will in my judgment agree promptly
upon a measure whicli will provide fol-
the purehaso of either Slr > 00,000
worth of bullion or preferable l'i)0)0 ( ) ( ) ( )
ounces. I am confident that tlio lat
ter proposition will meet approval. The cer
tificates to bo issued upon the bullion pur
chased must be redeemable in lawful money ,
and I am sure that the senate conferees wfll
not recede from their position. If they do
there will bo trouble in the senate. "

THE GERMAN ARMY BILL,
The Reichstag Passes it to a Third Reading Without Amendment,
CHANCELLOR VON CAPRIVI'S PROMISES.
The Opposition of the Measure He-
Finds: to Accept His Statements
Absence.
By the year 1904, the Reichstag has passed
the army bill to a third reading without
amendment. The minority consisted of the
freelancing, socialist, and volkisch parties and sixteen members of
the center party. Of the centrist members
who voted against the bill, sixteen were from
Bavaria and two from Baden. They refused
to follow Dr. Windthorst in accepting Chancellor von Caprivi's assurances that extensive
leaves of absence would be granted after two
years' service and that an annual budget
would be presented which would enable
the Reichstag to make the fixation effective, The chancellor's concessions
practically amount to little, but they sufficed
to give the bulk of the center party an excuse for voting for the bill. The house then
next passed to its second reading of the
budget committee's report striking out the
credit demanded by the government
for raising the pay of officers
, below the rank of colonel. Baron
Muller-Zentrum, the imperial secretary of the
treasury, and General Verdy du Bosque, the
minister of war, again advocated the reinsertion of the credit without fail. The supplementary estimates, amounting to 7,000,000 marks,
which are mainly intended for military purposes, were referred to the budget
committee.
The government, having now secured the passage of the army
bill, the Reichstag can adjourn early in July until
November, when bills bearing on the labor
question will form the chief work of the
Reichstag.
The bill concerning the acquisition of
Heligoland and the financial plans of the government by which the increased army expenditures are to be met will remain undisclosed until the winter session.
Sir Edward Malet, the British ambassador,
had an important conference with Chancellor
von Caprivi yesterday on the subject of the
opposition of the French government to the
East African agreement. The vote of M.
Ribot, the French minister of foreign affairs,
protesting against the establishment of a
protectorate over Zanzibar, affects
German claims within the sultanate
and also the proposed acquisition of Mafia.
The conference resulted in an agreement to
take simultaneous action in opposing the
right of France to interfere. The English
government has prepared a reply to M. Ribot
to the effect that if the sultan accepts the
protection of England or any other power the
treaty of 1852 gives France no right to object,
and further, that the Anglo-German arrangement
does not attack the independence
. of the sultan, protection not involving
/ subjection. The . .English . .vote will be presented to M. Ribot early next week and
will be supported by a diplomatic intimidation of Germany's concurrence. The French
press reports that Lord Salisbury's reply was
handed to M. Ribot today are untrue.
The Reichsanzeiger today vindicates the
Anglo-American apprécement as made in the
interest of the German East Africa company.
The colonial society's opposition which is based
upon the idea that German commercial expansion has been neglected, Is declared to be
inconsistent with the facts. Instead of neglecting the interests of the company the government,
after the transfer of the coast line with Malta,
will assist the company to develop and the Germans who are trying to develop trade and agriculture on the coast will find ample
support from the government. The article
Is obviously a response to the remarks made
by Prince Bismarck to a deputation that
awaited on him recently. England, he said,
would crush the German trade in East Africa.
The English might at the outset of the protectorate treat with complaisance the Hamburg merchants who have settled in
Zanzibar, but they would soon contrive to
oust them.
Baron Wissmann, since his interviews
with the emperor and Chancellor von Caprivi,
has modified his dislike to the concession of
Zanzibar to the English. At General von
Caprivi's ministerial dinner he said there
were good harbors on the mainland from
which ready access could be found to the interior and he was assured of immense developments of Germany outside of the sphere of
English competition. The Germans, he
declared, need not be jealous of
foreign traders, as there was ample room for
everyone in Africa.
Baron Wissmann will not return to Zanzibar,
but will be attached to the colonial department here.
The renewal of the condom until 1903, has
been a subject of negotiations between
Signor Crispi, the Italian premier, and Count
Kulnoky, the Austro-Hungarian prime minister. The new treaty, though unsigned, is
effectively assured, the communications
which have already been exchanged commit
the governments to an extension of the
period of the compact.
Emperor William arrived at Elsner this
afternoon. He was met at the landing by
King Christian, Crown Prince Frederick and
Danish royalties and the civic and
military authorities and given a cordial
greeting.
The port has sent private envoys to St.
Petersburg, Vienna, and London on a mission relating
to the demands for Bulgarian independence,
which are concurrent with Russia's insistence
upon the immediate payment of 2 francs of war indemnity. The
policy of the Bulgarian prime minister
is obscured, while Russia is reported to be
preparing to back up her demand by sending
the Black Sea fleet into Turkish waters.
The recent story about the undermining of
the war's palace at Gatchina proves to have
been exaggerated. A barrel half full of
dynamite was found in the wine cellar, and
there is no clue to how it came there. The
chief of the private police has been dismissed
on account of it.

Special to The Herald: Midsummer weather
Is here at last. The sun is blazing hot, even
the northeast wind ceases to bring with it an
unpleasant chill, as was the case a week ago,
and the leaves are already tinged to faint
yellow. The mondaines are now preparing
for the watering places and the mineral bath
season.
The Rue de la Paix is thronged with
women making their last purchases and having their dernier mot with the couturières
and milliners. The summer toilets this year
are unusually captivating. In the morning
the horse women and cavaliers still haunt the
bridle paths of the bois and there are many
little breakfast, lawn tennis and boating
parties at the Island club on the Seine.
To be a properly appointed person this
year takes an unusual amount of thought,
for she must be masculine and jaunty in her
percale shirts and high collars and four-in-
hand neckties, and yet more feminine than
ever in her thin white dresses with laces
and ribbons and baby blue parasols. I noted a very effective dress the other day at
the Island of Puteaux club. It was of
white flannel, striped with pink, and
a gilet of white batiste ruffled in front with
plain pink. A pink parasol of plain
silk and a hat turned up all around, except in
front, where it extends over the face. A
great many very pretty belts are also worn,
among others one of heavy silk cord twisted
with gold.
The coaching season is in full swing and the horns of the coachers, as they are daily tooted, from the Herald office to Versailles or St. Germain and back, by the skillful whips of Paris, London and New York have become quite a feature of Parisian life.
The grand reception given by the Baron de Schickler in honor of the betrothal of Mile de Schickler and Comte Humbert was one of the most brilliant of the season. The grand monde, both Parisian and foreign, was fully represented and all the members of the diplomatic corps were present. The Covetous and other wedding presents were greatly admired. The marriage is to be solemnized on Monday at the Temple de l'Oratoire.
The Jeanne d'Arc movement continues to arouse renewed enthusiasm and Myron Pages, bishop of Verdun, has been lecturing in all the towns and villages of France and the result will be the canonization of Jeanne and a national monument to her memory.
BRASILIA EXCHANGE.
Many Items of Interest From the Yenom Capital.
Rio, June 26. [Special Cablegram to The Herald.] If the chamber discusses finance, Minister Rouvier's 7,000,000 franc loan, before adjournment the session will be protracted until August, otherwise the chamber will adjourn in July.
The municipal council has appropriated the sum of 10,000 francs for the celebration of the fall of the Bastille on July 14.
The members of the Brazilian delegation say that the only concession made their government in return for recognition by France was that the negotiations regarding the frontier of French Guinea shall be resumed where they were left off in 1810, and that if this proved impossible, questions should be referred to the Pope.
Russia has ordered to be manufactured in France a quantity of new rifles, modeled from the French standard rifle, and without the magazine feature.
Dr. Rafael Saldivar, ex-president of the republic of San Salvador, rejoices in the downfall of the Menedez administration, but denies that he was concerned in the revolution.
It is understood that Saldivar makes money by the overthrow of Menedez. Guzman Blanc, who also resides in Paris, makes money by his own downfall.
The salon committee has awarded a medal to Mrs. Wentworth, an American artist, for which the American committee rejected for the exhibition of 1885.
The German embassy here has announced that travelers passing through Alsace-Lorraine will not require passports, but for sojourners, even for the shortest time, a passport is an imperative necessity.
On the Fourth of July, the "American flag" which President Harrison sent to the American Art Students' association will be raised in the Batignolles quarter. Mrs. Field, wife of the United States minister, will observe the day by giving a reception to American residents and to visitors in the afternoon, and by a dinner in the evening. Consul General Rathbone will also give a dinner.
Mr. Field gave a dinner on Thursday to American visitors in Paris.
There were also present M. Constans, minister of the interior, Jules Blanchet, minister of commerce, Senor Pisa, Brazilian minister at Berlin, and M. De Blot, the Paris correspondent of the London Times.
A French and Spanish bourbon banquet was given at the Continental hotel last evening. Prince Victor confidently predicted the removal of Don Carlos from the throne. He asserted that Don Carlos had a superior right over the count of Paris to the French throne. The assemblage was a large and important one, but produced no general effect. The confidence of the Carlists is stimulated by the knowledge that Prince Alfonso is suffering from hydrocephalus and that it is the opinion of the doctors that he will not only die before reaching manhood, but that he will live only a short time.
Lord Salisbury Advises Unionists to Support the Tory Candidate.
LONDON, June 26. [Special Cablegram to The Herald.] The test of popular opinion on the question of compensation to publishers, which is the basis of Cain's campaign at Barrow-in-Furness, is attracting more attention than has been given to any single election in England in many years, and the contest for the seat promises to be waged with a degree of bitterness that will sever many lifelong friendships.
Cardinal Manning takes part in the campaign to the extent of writing a letter to Mr. Cain, in which he bids that gentleman God speed in the cause of which he has made himself champion. The venerable prelate writes that he has always refused to take part in political matters, but he regards the present issue as a question of morals and, therefore, feels called upon to express his views and declare his preferences.
The action of Barrow liberals in putting up a candidate renders Mr. Cain's return extremely unlikely, while Lord Salisbury's telegram advising unionists to support the Tory candidate is believed to be of sufficient weight to give the seat to a conservative.
London liberals have espoused the policy of the peace in their attempt to obtain recognition of their demands, and will endeavor to have the matter discussed in parliament with a view of putting an end to the uncertain state of affairs which now exists.
It is freely asserted by the police that Sir Edwin Bradford has used all the influence he possesses with Home Secretary Matthews to the end of inducing that official to make no concessions to force, and has represented himself as being thoroughly capable of dealing with the situation in a way that will prevent any similar trouble in the future.
A Riot in Rio.
Rio de Janeiro, June 5. On May 13, the anniversary of the abolition of slavery in Brazil, the friends of Viscount de Pelotas, the first republican governor of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, held a public meeting for the purpose of manifesting friendship for him. Governor Silveira Tururc and the chief of police, considering the time ill-chosen, prohibited the gathering. It was attempted, notwithstanding, to make a demonstration and a riot ensued, involving a loss of one life and the injury of several persons. The governor at once sent in his resignation and General Costa was appointed. Close observation reveals almost no indication of a desire on the part of the people to return to a monarchical form of government and the friends of the empire will hardly raise that question in the approaching elections. They will content themselves with endeavoring to secure a sufficient number of members to congress to elect a president who is friendly to them. The indications are that Theodore de Fonseca, the present chief of the provisional government, will be chosen.
OFFICER DUTY SHOT.
The Recovals a Riot in the Bronx
While "Criminal Crook".
The thugs and rounders varied their occupation last night, and instead of robbing, through stores and dwelling houses, they shot a policeman.
The beat that Officer Mike Drummy walks in the neighborhood of Twentieth and Pierce streets, is one of the most dreary in the city, as along the streets, hanging over the side-walks, are forests of high weeds, just the place which murderers and robbers would choose for the perpetration of their daring deeds.
Drummy had reported at midnight and when walking away from the box at Twenty-second and Pierce, he noticed two men, one tall and wearing a white slouch hat and the other short, dressed in light clothes, hastily walking down Twentieth street. He called to them to stop, but they hurried on. He then followed them as far as Poppleton avenue, where they disappeared. But thinking they might have turned onto Twenty-first street, the officer walked down that street, and when just beyond the alley he heard the report of a revolver, and felt a stinging pain in his left shoulder. He tried to raise his arm, but could not. He realized that he had been shot and turning around to go back to the box, he met McClure, a waterworks watchman, who walked back with him and notified the central station of what had happened.
The patrol wagon was sent out and the officer conveyed to the station, where Dr. Gapen was called and an unsuccessful attempt was made to remove the bullet. The bullet, which was probably a 22-caliber, entered the back, an inch below the shoulder blade, and took an upward course, delicately slightly to the right, producing a painful but not dangerous wound. At 8 o'clock the officer was taken to his home at 122 Hickory street.
WORLD'S FAIR COMMISSION. Vice Presidents Selected at Yesterday's Session. CHICAGO, June 28. The world's fair commissioners at their session this morning selected the following vice presidents: Thomas M. Waller of Connecticut, M.H. Du Young of California, D.B. Penn of Louisiana, G.W. Allen of New York, and A.B. Andrews of North Carolina. There still remains the selection of a treasurer general to complete the permanent organization. The committee on permanent organization will also later recommend a name for the place of director general.
The committee on permanent organization recommended that the president be empowered to appoint the following standing committees: Executive committee, twenty members; rules and by-laws, eight; tariff and transportation, six; foreign affairs, eight; legislation, one from each state and territory; art and sciences, eight; history, literature and popular education, eight; agriculture, eight; horticulture, eight; floriculture, eight; finance, eight; auditing committee, four; armories, eight; classification, sixteen; manufactures, sixteen; commerce, sixteen; mines and mining, sixteen; fisheries and fish culture, eight; board of lady managers, one from each state and territory and nine from Chicago.
The matter went over for future consideration.
JUDICIAL TROUBLE AGAIN. No Recomains Involved in the Aldermanic Bribery Cases. CHICAGO, June 28. The grand jury today continued its investigation into the charges of aldermanic bribery connection with the Lake street elevated road, and there were sensational developments. Alleged affidavits by ex-Aldermen Warner and Monroe, bearing the notarial seal and signature of Joseph C. Mackin, the noted political "line worker," were laid before Mackin by the grand jury several days ago, but he professed to know nothing about them, and the impression was given that they were manufactured by his clerk. Today an intimate friend of the clerk went to the state's attorney and said positively that the affidavits were drawn by Mackin, and that the latter had frequently boasted to him of the fact. A bailiff was sent out for Mackin, but he could not be found, and the general impression is that he has absconded to avoid prosecution for perjury. Mackin was released a few months ago from the Joliet prison, where he served a five-year term for manipulating election returns.
FINAL REPORT OF THE ENGINEER OFFICER in Charge. WASHINGTON, June 28. The secretary of war today transmitted to the house the final report of Captain Marshall, the engineer officer in charge of the work upon the location, plans and estimates of constructing the Hennepin canal. The cost of the work, with 10 percent added for contingencies, is for the main line $1,000,000, and for the feeder lines $1,520,000. Captain Marshall recommends that to secure full benefits, the Illinois and Michigan canal should be enlarged to the capacity of the government canal, otherwise the proposed canal would be simply a local highway of importance to its immediate neighborhood, but regarded as a national highway of but comparative small significance. Captain Marshall in conclusion states that the canal cannot be of such value to commerce as it would were the line throughout of greater capacity. It is evident, he says, that the canal should be built as a public necessity, either by the government or by a private corporation.
THE AMERICAN ENGINEERS. Their Report on the South Fork Dam Disaster Withheld.
CLSSON, June 28. [Special Telegram to The Ball.] The members of the American society of civil engineers spent the forenoon at Bell's gap and held a business session in the afternoon. Papers were read by J.E. Adams and Carroll Bussett.
In the evening a reception was tendered the association by Superintendent Bly of the Pennsylvania railroad at Altoona. The most important item to the public will hardly be made public, that is, the report of the committee composed of J.B. Francis, M.J. Becker, Alphonso Fitley and W.E. Worthington, who carefully investigated the South Fork dam at the time of the Johnstown disaster. Mr. Francis urges that the report, be made public, but is opposed in this by Mr. Becker, engineer of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati & St. Louis railroad of Pittsburgh, who says landing litigation must not be influenced by an engineer's report of the cause of the disaster.
The Lake Front is Chosen. CHICAGO, June 28. The directors of the world's Columbian exposition tonight, after a discussion lasting several hours, voted on the question of a site for the fair to be recommended to the national commission for acceptance or rejection. The result was that the United front was named to be passed upon by the commission. The vote stood 12 for that site to 10
A PENSION FOR CROOK Unanimous Report Submitted by the Committee in Favor of It, A WARM TRIBUTE TO THE DEAD GENERAL. The Many Brilliant Achievements of the Famous Indian Fighter He-Called The National Attention Hill.
WASHINGTON BUREAU THEN COLLEGE BAR, June 28. By FOR FRONT SIBTER, WASHINGTON, D.C., June 23. Senator Paddock tonight submitted his report in favor of the bright pension for the widow of the late General Crook. Senator Paddock made firm light for the adoption of his bill, as originally introduced, giving a pension of $2,000 a year, but found that all the other members of the committee favored $1,200, and he finally yielded. The report is unanimously endorsed by the committee and is quite lengthy, embracing a full military history of the noted warrior and many endorsements from civil and military associations and legislatures, among them being a memorial from the citizens of Omaha and a preamble and resolution from the Nebraska legislature. In the conclusion of his report Senator Paddock says: "General Crook was perhaps unique among the surviving generals of the civil war. His first honors were won as the protector of the lives and homes of the western frontiersmen against the merciless savages, his last guerdons were gained as the conqueror of the Indians whom he had conquered and as the advocate of honesty and justice toward the nation's wards. From his graduation at the military academy until his death, his life was filled with action. His military duty led him into every section of the country and never without signal distinction to himself. On the Pacific coast, the plains, the middle west, in the arid regions of Arizona and New Mexico, and the rocky canyons of the Sierra Madre, no less than on the battlefields of the south, he served his country with unsurpassed gallantry and matchless devotion to duty.
His bravery and soldierly abilities were honored by brevets during the civil war for gallantry and meritorious service. His wisdom, daring, and supreme capacity in command of troops for the subjugation of hostile Indians made him the recipient of repeated resolutions of thanks from the legislatures of the states and territories to which he brought peace. From the close of the war until his death, he made his name and the record of his deeds a part of the imperishable history of American valor, a lasting tradition among every tribe of Indians of the west and a never to be forgotten recollection among the pioneers and frontiersmen.
His services rendered possible the rapid settlement of vast areas of territory and the development of mines and valleys inaccessible before opened by his victorious campaigns."
His last distinguished service rendered possible the opening of the great Sioux reservation, through the personal influence which he exercised in council over those whom he had defeated in war. Gallant, he was in battle, General Crook's magnanimity and tenderness toward his foes will never be forgotten in those parts of the country where he served. Long years after the struggle ended, large portions of his pay were spent alleviating poverty and distributing aid to enemies whom he had overcome in battle. They and others will bear most cheerful witness to the chivalrous nature and warm heart of General Crook, while hundreds of his sick and suffering comrades, their widows and orphans will join in the testimony. General Crook has left his widow in indigent circumstances and through no fault of his own. Arduous and continuously changing service, with the expense attendant upon change and its steady draft upon pecuniary resources, through generosity to comrades and friends, is responsible for the condition of his estate. Your committee is confident that the country, which owes so much to his memory, will not permit his widow to want. The sentiment which made exceptional circumstances in the cases of the widows of Admiral Farragut and of Generals Thomas, Hancock and Logan will find equally meritorious application in the case of the widow of the gallant union general, the distinguished Indian fighter and the pacifier of the great west.
COL. HENDERSOX'S SPEECH, There has been no more effective speech delivered in favor of the national elections bill than that of Colonel Henderson of Iowa in the house this afternoon. He reversed all of the arguments used by the democrats against the bill and made them stand in favor of the measure. Colonel Henderson said that he regretted to learn from expressions on the floor of the house and elsewhere that there was a feeling in some quarters that the north was unfriendly toward the south. He did not believe there was any but the best of feeling in the north toward the south and southern interests upon the part of anyone. But it does not follow, said he, that because the north is friendly toward the south that the former is expected to call white black or black white, and that the gravest wrongs were to be ignored or winked at. He did not believe that any northern politicians would use the southern question for party advantage. The suggestion, he said, was as a two-edged sword. No one used sectional questions more actively for political purposes than southern democrats. He appealed to the democratic side to say where the most demagoguery was employed in reference to the southern question. Education and a lack of prejudice were what was wanted. Great wrongs upon any people always visited the wrong-doers. Colonel Henderson reviewed the proposed law and said it was intended only to secure a fair and free exercise of suffrage and the honest results of votes. It was not intended to and would not affect disadvantageously the honest voters. It was impersonal and non-sectional. If the frauds do not exist such as it is intended to thwart by this bill, then the republican platforms were a lie and the republican orators and press have not the truth in them. He appealed to the honor and fairness of republicans and asked them to stand by the measure if they would be brave, honest and consistent. If these frauds about which republicans have so much talked exist he could not conceive that a republican would upon any pretext give his support to the bill under consideration. Not a man in the house is there, he said, but that knows that election frauds, gigantic and criminal in the highest degree, condoned for and endorsed by the democratic party, exists. His review of frauds, shown by congressional investigation and courts, was conclusive and showed why the democrats were opposing the measure under consideration. The democrats hung their heads in shame as proof after proof was brought forward illustrating the universality of election frauds. Quoting from the speech of Mr. Hemphill of South Carolina, given in these dispatches last night, he said that there could be no further proof offered than that the democrats of South Carolina did not intend to suffer the colored man to exercise the rights given him by the constitution of the United States. It was defiance of the constitution, the same as by armed revolutionists. While Mr. McAdoo of New Jersey was speaking he was confronted with many embarrassing questions. He denounced the measure with all the vehemence of a northern democratic demagogue. Sixty-six democrats were indicted in Mr. McAdoo's state for crimes at the last congressional election. Two have been tried and sent to the penitentiary, how many more will go to prison for election crimes only the trials will disclose. It will thus be seen that this election bill is a very personal matter to Mr. McAdoo.
WILL, NOT HEARD IN THE HOUSE, There was a very lively passage of words in the house this afternoon which was not intended for and will not appear in the Punxsutawney Record. Mr. Enloe of Tennessee, the democrat who retires to private life with this contrast, made a desperate effort in the morning hour to defeat a lot of private pension bills adopted by the house last night. Enloe is evidently suffering from acute indigestion, for he seems to have good will for no one. He objects to all private bills and has made a special point of objecting to pension bills and demanding a quorum for their consideration. This morning he objected to the approval of the journal, which showed that about a hundred private bills were passed last night, but the house promptly squelched him and he sneaked away shamefaced. A couple of hours or so later Hemphill of South Carolina came upon the aisle while Enloe was writing and asked him a question, to which the Tennessean made no response. Then Hemphill looked at him sharply for a second or two and exclaimed, "Go to hell." Enloe arose hastily and said: "You mind your own business and I'll mind mine," to which the South Carolinian rejoined: "I am minding my own business and the business of the country when I ask you not to delay the work of the house." The two men looked for a moment as though they would come to blows. Shortly afterwards Enloe, saying he would see Hemphill later, left the hall.
ITS ADDITION ASSIGNED, The action of the house yesterday in receiving from its disagreement to the Senate amendment providing for an increase of the salary of the commissioner and assistant commissioner of the general land office assures the adoption of Senator Paddock's amendment to that effect. It may therefore be considered practically a law. At the beginning of the session Senator Paddock introduced a bill to increase the efficiency of the general land office, which provided for a somewhat extensive reorganization and readjustment of the forces. Finding that it would be difficult to secure an early passage of this bill through both houses after a prolonged struggle in the senate, the senator quietly dropped his bill and took the more rapid method of preparing and offering an amendment to the legislature appropriating bill, which carried into effect most of the features of the bill itself. The amendment has now been concurred in by both houses; It increases the salary of the commissioner of the general land office from $1,000 to $2,500, of the assistant commissioner from $3,000 to $4,500 and raises the salary of the three principal clerks of the general land office from $1,800 to $2,500, while at the same time providing eight chiefs of divisions in the land office at the same salary. These chiefs of divisions are the principal clerks in the general land office and the effect of the new legislation will be to slightly increase their salary and to take them out from under the operation of the civil service rules.
Judge Groff thoroughly endorses Senator Paddock's plan of the reorganization of the land office and is greatly pleased at the result. He certainly cannot but feel highly complimented by the universal commendation bestowed upon his administration of the land office by speakers on both sides of the house and from both political parties yesterday. Judge Payson, the chairman of the house committee on public lands, delivered an eulogy on Judge Groff as a public officer which is probably without parallel in the history of recent debate in the house. He said that experience had demonstrated the wisdom of President Harrison's judgment in the selection of a commissioner who was a courteous gentleman, energetic, full of western push and executive force, industrious, whilst with a record of work which shows careful and conscientious exertions. He characterized him as a lawyer of eminence, bringing with him a reputation as Judge which has been fully sustained by his decisions in numerous and important cases. As Judge Payson personally knew now of his record rendered since he has been in office.
Judge Paysoti stated that his partiality for him was not expressed because of a personal friendship, although he was glad to number Judge Groff among those to whom he was warmly attached, but that his endorsement of the increase to Judge Groff's salary on the highest public grounds.
SCRAP AS IT HAPPENS: Sergeant-at-Arms Valentino of Nebraska will be sworn in on Monday to the place of the retiring sergeant-at-arms, Canaday. It is understood that at present there will be few changes in the force of the senate. On a fair distribution of patronage, each senator would be entitled to $1,000 a year in annual salaries, including messengers and various sub-employees. As a matter of fact, however, every Republican senator has at present a material increase over these figures. Colorado is at present credited with two messengers at $11 per year each, one employee of the folding room at $1,000 and one employee on the laborers' roll at $1, a total of only a little less than $5,000 per year. Nebraska is credited with over $8,000, Pennsylvania with nearly $6,000 and Connecticut with over $7,000. Upon any proper readjustment of the force, either Colorado's quota should be increased or those of other western states should be diminished.
The appointment of Lieutenant Colonel Hatterfield as quartermaster general over the heads of six superiors in rank has created much dissatisfaction in Washington, especially among members of the army. It has made all predictions as to forthcoming promotions in the lines of the service unreliable, as it is evidently the intention of the president not to consult seniority in his selections of these officers. The commissary general ship becomes vacant on Tuesday next by the retirement of General McFieldoy and several days later General Gridson goes out, leaving a brigadier general to be appointed. Within six weeks the surgeon general will retire, and meanwhile there are several other somewhat less important vacancies to be filled. General Hatterfield's assumption upon confirmation there will be an opportunity for the appointment of an assistant quartermaster general with a rank of captain. After the confirmation of General McFieldoy's successor there will be a captain in the subsistence department at the president's disposal. There are over one hundred applications for offices on the staff and it is impossible to make any predictions as to the result. As to the brigadier generalship in the line, the opinion prevails at Washington that it will rest between Colonel Iversen of the Eighth infantry and Colonel McCook of the Sixth, with Colonel Wheaton of the Second and Colonel Morrow of the Twenty-third following close after. The surgeon generalship hosts between Colonel Sutherland, Colonel Laxor and Major Billings. The contest between them will be one of the most exciting political contests that the war department has experienced since Surgeon Barnes was appointed.
UNION PACIFIC LAND PATENTS.
Secretary Noble today replied to the resolution of Senator Plumb under date of December at, which called upon the Interior department to report the cause for the withholding of patents within the limits of the grants of the Union Pacific railway company which are free from claims. There has been a strong pressure brought to bear upon the Interior department from hundreds of settlers who years ago purchased lands from the Union Pacific railway company and who have not yet received patents for the completion of their titles to these lands. There has also been great complaint from the states of Kansas and Nebraska owing to the withholding of the patents and the railroad company and the purchasers under them have been enabled to escape state taxation. Senator Paddock of Nebraska has three times called upon the president and urged a settlement of the question and the senator has also called the attention of the chief executive and secretary of the interior to the matter. In his reply, Secretary Noble states that the delay in making a response has been due to very important questions connected with the right of the Union Pacific railroad to claims claimed by it under its grant. The perception of these difficulties, said the secretary, is not of recent origin. During the last administration lists involving thousands of acres of those lands were applied for by the railroad company, were duly considered and signed by the proper clerks in the land office, approved by the commissioner and ordered to patent by the secretary. Indeed, a patent for part of those lands was duly executed on April 1, 1890, by President Cleveland for the Union Pacific, but was suspended before recording. In cases when patents were not executed, the lists were suspended and have remained until the time of the present administration. It thus appears that only was it deemed by the previous administration that the Union Pacific railroad and land in Kansas and Nebraska, but the right thereto had been acknowledged by the commissioner of the general land office and the secretary of the Interior. This action was acquiesced in by the then President Cleveland. But at this juncture a letter was received at the Interior department from the Pacific railroad commission, organized under the act of March 1887, making inquiries as to the issue of these patents pending the examination into the indebtedness of the railroad company to the United States, and the president. In transmitting the report of the commission, said: "The executive power must be exercised according to existing laws and the executive discretion is not probably broad enough to reach such a difficulty, yet the Fifty-eighth Congress, to whom this matter was directed, adjourned without enacting any further legislation. The subject has now received sufficient notice and the conclusion has been reached that the indebtedness of the railroad company to the United States does not authorize this department to withhold lands granted to the company and for which lists have been filed. No reason is deemed to exist why the secretary should not proceed to deliver to the Union Pacific company lands which have been earned, and it is his intention to certify those lists, commencing at the eastern portion of the unpatented lands in Kansas and Nebraska where the lands are agricultural and have been sold and are in use by actual settlers. The patents executed already by the previous executive will be recorded. Patents will be issued on the lists approved by the former secretary and lists not yet approved will be examined in due order. This conclusion, I will add, is in accordance with the recommendation of the commissioner of the general land office and also with the opinion of the assistant attorney general assigned to this department.
DUMOCRATIC CANDIDATES.
The democrats are capitulating on the national election bill. They have proposed to the republicans in the senate that they will co-operate to bring about prompt action on the silver, tariff, appropriation and other general bills so as to bring about an adjournment of congress before the end of July provided the republicans will not ask to take up the elections bill at this session and permit it to lie over in the senate committee. Republican senators have been telegraphed to be here the first of next week for a conference, when the proposition will be considered. It has been the purpose to take up the elections bill on Monday and when the elections bill is reported from the senate committee, lay aside the tariff bill and give the former precedence.
CONFERENCE ON SILVER.
Both conference committees have now been appointed on the silver bill. The house committee, consisting of Representatives Conger, Walker of Massachusetts and Bland were named by Speaker Reed shortly before adjournment, last evening. This morning the vice president named as the senate conferees Senators Sherman, Jones of Nevada and Harris. The delay in the appointment, as wired last evening, was due to the decision on the part of the speaker and vice president to select representatives and senators who would meet the requirements of a compromise. It is believed that the selections made are on this line. Representative Conger, who was the champion of the house measure, is understood to be willing to recede from his advocacy of the bullion redemption feature under pressure from the senate. While he insists that the house bill as originally passed would have filled all the requirements of the situation, he now announces himself as prepared to meet, at least half way, and to provide for a bill which will absorb the entire product of the American mines. Representative Walker of Massachusetts is a well-known monometallist. He is presently absent from the city, but is expected to return early in the coming week. His friends, however, state that he will not be found in the way of liberal legislation as long as it stops short of absolute and unlimited coinage. The position of Representative Bland, of Missouri, is too well known to require further comments.
On the side of the senate, Senators Jones and Harris will control. Senator Harris is even more radical in his views on the silver question than Senator Jones. When the bill was under discussion in the senate he opposed the issue of certificates on constitutional grounds, believing that all bullion should be coined and should not be represented by any substitute for mere convenience sake. Senator Jones, while openly in favor of unlimited coinage, believes that a measure which will provide for the purchase of two million ounces of silver a month upon which certificates shall be issued redeemable in coin or lawful money, will be temporarily at least a satisfactory solution of the problem. The position of Senator Sherman is not so well defined. His attitude in debate is better known. There is a general belief, however, that he will not use his efforts for a measure which will secure executive approval and afford relief to the country.
Senator Teller this evening said: "I have no doubt of results. The conference committee will in my judgment agree promptly upon a measure which will provide for the purchase of either 50,000,000 ounces or 400,000,000 pounds of bullion or preferable pounds. I am confident that the latter proposition will meet approval. The certificates to be issued upon the bullion purchased must be redeemable in lawful money, and I am sure that the senate conferees will not recede from their position. If they do there will be trouble in the senate."

One Score.
Slonx City 11 , Omaha 1O.
There was tin aggravating game of ball
pla.vcd at the local park yesterday after
noon.
Omaha vs Sioux City.
It was a circus with two rings nud nineteen
clowns.
A concatenation of blunders , mlsjudgments
nnd blockhead plays , that is what it was , and
they were divided about equally between the
opposing forces.
From the kicking the Corn Huskers In
dulged in vou'd ' thought it wusu giunoof foot
ball.
ball.They scared the umpire young Mr. Atwood
- out of a couple of years' growth , and at ono
Ktagc' in the farce he threw up the sponge in
disgust and refused to proceed further.
A half hour's coaxing , however , brought
him buck and the circus ruulinucd.
But like tno mills of tlio gods , exceedingly
hlow.
The Angel us rang , the sun went do\vn , and
the moon came up , and still the bespangled
performers wont on leaping over the barrier-
ties , through thohpapor oops und hanging by
their eyebrows from the living trapeze 1
"And what will the little lady have next ? "
came ever and anon from Johnny Atwood
from tiniidst a very cntaclasm of howls and
groans and cat-culls from the paralyzed spec
tators.
Such a hum-turn time , oh my ! Oh , mo !
] t was enough to give one a palpitation in tlio
thoracic region.
Martin was in the twirlcrs' square for the
Bl.u-k Sox.
Would that ho were ynt in Galcsburg.
Ho was as wild as a Texan peccary , , aud if
be failed to give a man his base on balls , ho
Just smashed him in the back with the
.spheroid and sent him there anyway.
At one time , in the momentus eighth the
crowd arose as ono man , and yelled murder !
This was just after the Onianus bad , by us
picturesque a streak of hitting as you will
he in a life-time , knocked out six great , big ,
broad-chested runs , giving them u handsome
lead of four.
Then the lusty buskers of the malzo came
in
And what did they do ?
Why , they never did a thing.
The southpaw catapult from Galesburg did
it all.
He turned himself into a regular double-
valved , back-acting , eleemosynary institution
aud gave General Powell's men four runs.
A pure gift.
They never made a sign of a hit.
Ami , still , tied the score !
Powell was the first man to too the scratch
nt this calamitous juncture.
lie sent a little parabolic fly into the air
"which Galesburg clasped to his bosom.
Then ho gave Genius and Devlin their
bases on balls , following this up by hitting
. nwsley and Black , which of course forced
Charles Genius over tlio oyster.
This started Joe Walsh's mustache to grow
ing like an ulaha.struml
And Wuliy Andrews became so nervous
that he made uu error as big und yellow us u
pumpkin on Walsh's throw of Monkey Cllno's
grounder , and both Devlin and Crossley scur
vied across tlio platter like a couple of cats
with a bootjack iu their wake !
But disasters und mosquitoes never come
Kingly.
So lust to keep up the fun ICcurns muffed
Glenn's fly , and Black came Iu and joined his
hilarious coadjutors on the bench.
Kappel und Brosnan went out and n quietude
deep and solemn us that of the tomb foil over
the park.
From this on the Omaha team wns seized
with ennui.
Their stock of Halford sauce was ' ex
hausted , and they prayed for the darkness of
night to settle over the earth like n pall.
Hut it wouldn't settle worth a continental ,
nud the game was dragged Into ten innings.
In her half Omaha drew a blank , but Sioux
C'ltv poked out the winning run.
' 1 lie only earned one of the whole boodle.
Black led oil with a single decorated with
butterflies and humming birds , and then ,
nfter Martin had shimmed the monkey out at
llrst and Glenn had been .similarly served bv
t'levolund ' , Kuppcl made u hit , uud the jig wu's

o'clock , during business hours. It was ono
of the most bold and daring robberies over
committed In northwest Missouri. Four
masked.mon. dressed in Prince Albert coats
nud mounted upon good horses , were seen to
approach the town from the east n little be
fore " .o'clock. Each ono had two largo re
volvers and the citizens wore terrified. They
rilled the money drawers and safes of the
stores they found open , securing from $2,000
to $ .1,000.
They then started for their horses , tied a
short distance from town. By this time tlio
citizens had collected their wits and a few
guns and revolvers nud started In hot pursuit
to make u running Mght. The robbers were
now mounted und fought bravely. One of
them was pierced with u bullet , as blood
could bo seen along the road and upon the
bridges. The pursuit lasted about twelve
miles and was then given up for the night.
It was evident that the gang had homo very
ast horses in their possession.
The robbers uro well dressed , well armed
and can surprise and hold at bay almost any
small town for n few minutes at least. A
posse of men are scouring the country today.
They are moving northwards to Iowa. For
miles north of hero and west it Is a heavily
timbered country , making It very difficult to
run down the criminals.

WASHINGTON- , Juno 23. When the house
mot tills morning Mr. Enloo of Tennessee
moved to correct the Journal so ns to strike
thoi-ofroin the titles of a number of private
pension bills passed by the house lust night.
Ho claimed that the bills passed before the
house went Into committee of the whole and
were not properly before the house. The
house , however , refused to agree to his mo
tion , so the bills stand passed.
The house then went Into committee of the
whole on the federal election bill.
Mr. MoAdoo of New Jersey toolc the floor
and made vigorous speech In opposition to
the bill. Ho bused his opposition on the
principle of homo rule nml the right of the
people to control their own affairs without
federal Interference. He warned the repub
licans to bowaiiof the experience of Wnl-
tiolo when prime minister of Knglnnd. He
begged the republicans , ho abjured them by
their own sense of manliness to abandon the
bill before the cry went up of "Liberty ,
lil > orty , no interference with elections. "
Mr. McUomas of Maryland reviewed the
various election contests during the present
congress to show the necessity for the pass
age of such a law. The democrats talked
about the people its ono kind of power and
the gentleman from Now Jersey ( MeAdoo )
talked a great deal about home rule. Air.
Mi-Comas went on to say that the triumph of
the white man's party in the south meant
control not only of states but of the national
legislature. Against tissue ballots , against
false counting , against night raiders , against
the shotgun policy , against intimidation , the
dignity of the courts , the majesty of the luw ,
the powers of the constitution assure justice
to all men , white or black , in this country.
[ Loud applause. )
Mr. Bland of Missouri twitted Mr. Ale-
Comas for having taken away from the black
men of the District of Columbia tlie power of
local government and never giving it to them
again.
Tills resulted in nn uproar , Messrs. Bland
and McComas shouting at the top of their
voices amid the applause of their colleagues
and the galleries.
Mr. AlcComas declared that when Mr.
Bland alTeotod an interest in eight or ten
thousand black voters of the District , while
during his long service here he had never
raised his voice in behalf of the eight or ten
million poor and oppressed black men in the
country , ho felt like calling him a hypocrite.
Air. Bland vehemently declared Air. Alc
Comas a hypocrite who felt no interest in the
negro.
At tills point the uproar became so great
that nothing coitld bo hoard suvo the com
mingled shouts of the debaters and the rap
ping of the speaker's gavel.
Air. AlcComas .managed to shout : "The
black man in this district is like the white , "
and he appealed to the people of the south to
treat blacks and whites alike.
When quiet was .finally restored Air. Cum-
mingsof New York ) spoke against the bill.
The bill was a sectional one. The republican
party proposed to make the negro a chattel to
bo used as a coh'vejlience whenever neces
sary. I
Air. Henderson of Iowa read from the
speech of Air. Hemphilla passage declaring
that the whites must either rule or leave
the south , anil that they would not leave it.
Ho wanted no 'further proof than that
declaration that tfife blacks of South Carolina
would not bo allowed to exercise the rights
guaranteed by .tlio constitution. Ho felt
wan-anted in saMiig that it was as dangerous
as armed rebellion , anil ho meant it. Ho
then read from unliitcrvicw in which Rep
resentative Alills wriuotca as saying that
the passage of Yinbill' meant an in
creased number of deaths among fed
eral election ollleors intho south.
Ho did not know if this were true , but if so ,
it wns another defiance. Ho served notice
that the country would no longer submit to
the rule of the minority. Under Clod he do- '
clarcd that Grover Cleveland had had no
right to his scat in the white house and the
democratic party ahad not had an honest
majority in the house in twenty-live years.
Ho wanted to say that before ho should con
sent that the minority should govern the
majority ho would favor the protec
tion of every ballot box by
a killing bullet. [ Applause. ] The
house had been told that what was needed
was not a now south , but u now north. They
would get it. Tlio north had peacefully and
patiently submitted to this injustice. They
hud seen the control of the government by
red hands wrested from Its proper channels
and the new north was at hand , which would
enforce the law and the rights of every citi
zen. Let the south try a little justice. The
key to the situation was In the observation of
the law and where that could not be secured'
a law must be made to secure it. Ho spoke
briefly of the recent exhibition of the stars
and bars and confederate gray at Hichmond.
He would not have them forgot the tender
relations of the war , but he entered a protest
against being told that a new north was
needed when the flag of tlio dangerous south
was flaunting in the face of the republic.
The gentlemen might cry "liberty , liberty , "
but from the states from which many of
them came It seemed to him like satan wear
ing a cross when ho sought to promulgate
dark dogmas.
The conference report on the postollicc ap
propriation bill was adopted.
Air. Kwart of North Carolina , republican ,
opposed the passage of the election
bill. Unfortunately politics had como
to such n puss- that under the rule
of king caucus men would vote for measures
that deep down in their hearts they did not
believe in. As ' "
to the negroes' "political
rights , " speaking for his own state , ho un
hesitatingly assorted that no republican in
lho state , black or white , was prevented from
casting a vote , The elections there were
absolutely fair. The entire people of the
south should not bo blamed for the acts of a
few lawless men. Ho was sick and tired of
the Bdjitimental talk about the negro problem.
It was ik delusion to suppose tlio negro was
voting the repunlican ticket solidly. Ho
was doing nothing of the kind. Alany of
them wore voting the democratic ticket and
it was getting more and more difficult every
vear for the republican party to control tlio
negro. Ho hud no hesitation in saying that
not throe-tenths of the negroes of the south
would vote for -republican party if an
election was held tomorrow.

CHICAGO , Juno 23. [ Special Telegram
to Tin : line. ] The attempt to advance
western freight rates has met with another
set back on account of the wholesale
cutting of rates on merchandise between
Chicago and the west. Charges were freely
made today that those i-.itesMnul been cut 5 to
7 cents. If the charge3 arc proved the Alton
will not allow the advance of a solitary west
bound rate until It is satlslled the cutting has
ceased.
There Is no question of the advance in
rates and If the Alton can bo satisfied Its
competitors will use tlio advance honestly
and not as u means of cutting rates still
deeper. It Is not generally known , but It is a
fact , that all the lines between Chicago and
St. Paul have boon Ignoring the long and
hort haul clause of the interstate commerce
act. Tills Is done by making u through rate
from the seaboard to St , Paul of 71 cents ,
while to intermediate points a higher r.Uo
applies in each instance.
The plan of advancing rates will bo consid
ered at the general meeting of the western
lines next Wednesday. ° attempt will bo
made to raise cast bound grain from tlio Mis
souri river ns the Alton and Interstate com
merce commission , between them , uro more
likelv to lower these rates on account of their
continued manipulations.

Improved in quality under the nrcscnts.vstoni.
They claim that a good miner is paid no more
than the poor miner provided that they each
mine the snmo quantity , as its quality cuts
no figure.
The men , on the other hand , claim that the
coal company should only employ good
miners , that the introduction of the screens
means a subsequent reduction of wages. Tlio

for Juno. Beginning with Tuesday , Juno 2T > ,
when the teniiHJruturo was 103 nlxivo the
normal height , It hi\s gradually risen
till tlio 2iith and 27th to nearly 20 = >
above. The cause for this abmu-mal condi
tion has been the uniform high pressure iu
the gulf region with nn almost stationary low
invssure area In the northwest. This distri
bution of atmosphere has cause n steadv How
of warm , dry air to the northward , The In
flow of air has been too slow to induce a rain
fall , and the consequent clear sky has boon
favorable to extreme radiation from tlio sun
which bus raised the temperature stoadllv
without the usual relief from the passage o'f
storms across the country. Relief from these
conditions may bo expected Sunday night.

There was an aggravating game of ball played at the local park yesterday afternoon. Omaha vs Sioux City. It was a circus with two rings and nineteen clowns. A concatenation of blunders, misjudgments, and blockhead plays, that is what it was, and they were divided about equally between the opposing forces.
From the kicking the Corn Huskers indulged in, you'd thought it was a game of foot ball. They scared the umpire, young Mr. Atwood, out of a couple of years' growth, and at one stage in the farce he threw up the sponge in disgust and refused to proceed further. A half hour's coaxing, however, brought him back and the circus resumed.
But like the mills of the gods, exceedingly slow. The angelus rang, the sun went down, and the moon came up, and still the bespangled performers went on leaping over the barriers, through the paper hoops and hanging by their eyebrows from the living trapeze.
"And what will the little lady have next?" came ever and anon from Johnny Atwood amid the clash of howls and groans and cat-calls from the paralyzed spectators.
Such a humorous time, oh my! Oh, me! It was enough to give one a palpitation in the thoracic region.
Martin was in the twirlers' square for the Black Sox. Would that he were in Galesburg. He was as wild as a Texan peccary, and if he failed to give a man his base on balls, he just smashed him in the back with the sphere and sent him there anyway.
At one time, in the momentous eighth, the crowd arose as one man, and yelled murder! This was just after the Omahans had, by us picturesque a streak of hitting as you will see in a lifetime, knocked out six great, big, broad-chested runs, giving them a handsome lead of four.
Then the lusty buskers of the malzo came in.
And what did they do?
Why, they never did a thing.
The southpaw catapult from Galesburg did it all.
He turned himself into a regular double-valved, back-acting, eleemosynary institution and gave General Powell's men four runs.
A pure gift.
They never made a sign of a hit.
And, still, tied the score!
Powell was the first man to take the scratch at this calamitous juncture.
He sent a little parabolic fly into the air, "which Galesburg clasped to his bosom.
Then he gave Genius and Devlin their bases on balls, following this up by hitting Newsley and Black, which of course forced Charles Genius over the oyster.
This started Joe Walsh's mustache to growing like an ulster strangled.
And Wally Andrews became so nervous that he made an error as big and yellow as a pumpkin on Walsh's throw of Monkey Chin's grounder, and both Devlin and Crossley scurried across the platter like a couple of cats with a bootjack in their wake!
But disasters and mosquitoes never come singly.
So just to keep up the fun, Eccurns muffed Glenn's fly, and Black came in and joined his hilarious coadjutors on the bench.
Kappel and Brosnan went out and a quietude as deep and solemn as that of the tomb fell over the park.
From this on the Omaha team was seized with ennui.
Their stock of Halford sauce was exhausted, and they prayed for the darkness of night to settle over the earth like a pall.
But it wouldn't settle worth a continental, and the game was dragged into ten innings.
In her half Omaha drew a blank, but Sioux City poked out the winning run.
The only earned one of the whole boodle.
Black led off with a single decorated with butterflies and hummingbirds, and then, after Martin had shamed the monkey out at first and Glenn had been similarly served by Cleveland, Kuppel made a hit, and the jig was on.
Rutten, wasn't it?

The Corn Huskers Again Today.
The Omahas and Sioux Cities play their second game this afternoon, and a good game is anticipated. Clarke and Moran will be Omahas battery, while Hurdock and Strauss will officiate for the visitors. This is the last game until Sunday next, when the Cowboys will run up for a single game.
Two Games for the Parent.
Not the least by any means of Omaha's Fourth of July attractions will be the two great games of baseball at the baseball park in the morning and afternoon between the strong team representing the Crane company of this city and the Whitings, the champions of the Chicago city league. All the Omaha fans will turn out, if for no other purpose than to see Tommy Nagle, the most popular catcher who ever played on an Omaha team. Tom will do the work behind the plate in both games for the Whitings. Then in addition to Nagle there are such men as Pitcher Sullivan, Werhlem, Rholms, King and Halstenson, old Northwestern league players, with the Windy City crowd, and altogether it is Just about as strong an aggregation as any of these in the Western association. The Cranes, too, for this occasion will be very strong. Deist is pitching in great form, and hopes to be able to fool the sluggers from Chicago. At any rate, the games will be fine ones, both of them, and large crowds will assuredly be in attendance to witness the sport.
These two games will constitute the baseball attraction of the day, as
the Omahas will be in Kansas City on that day. Following will be found the positions of the two teams:
Crane Co. Positions. Whitings.

Ruddy Hansen, late shortstop for Sioux City, was signed by Manager Leonard last night and will probably appear on second this afternoon. Hansen is a natural ballplayer and one of the best in the western association. A hard hitter, good fielder, swift on the bases, and a catcher par excellence. May play the game of his life from here on until the close of the season.

'Victory' over the Town of Elgin, Mo., and Help Themselves.
Elgin, Mo., June 23. [Special to The Kansas City Times:] The dry goods house of A. W. Chunnin & Co. was robbed last night about 12 o'clock, during business hours. It was one of the most bold and daring robberies ever committed in northwest Missouri. Four masked men, dressed in Prince Albert coats and mounted upon good horses, were seen to approach the town from the east a little before 12 o'clock. Each one had two large revolvers and the citizens were terrified. They rifled the money drawers and safes of the stores they found open, securing from $2,000 to $3,000.
They then started for their horses, tied a short distance from town. By this time the citizens had collected their wits and a few guns and revolvers and started in hot pursuit to make a running fight. The robbers were now mounted and fought bravely. One of them was pierced with a bullet, as blood could be seen along the road and upon the bridges. The pursuit lasted about twelve miles and was then given up for the night.
It was evident that the gang had very fast horses in their possession.
The robbers are well dressed, well armed, and can surprise and hold at bay almost any small town for a few minutes at least. A posse of men are scouring the country today. They are moving northwards to Iowa. For miles north of here and west it is a heavily timbered country, making it very difficult to run down the criminals.
A Miraculous Escape
KANSAS CITY, June 28. [Special Telegram to The Kansas City Times.] A lamp exploded last night in Dr. A. M. Hoover's residence while the doctor and his wife were away from home. A small daughter occupied the room in which the accident occurred, and was sleeping at the time. When Mrs. Hoover returned she detected smoke in the house, and rushed to the rescue of her daughter, who was found almost smothered. The room and furniture were badly damaged by fire and the child's escape was miraculous.
The Panama Canal.
PANAMA, June 28. The French press admits that the negotiations between Lieutenant Wyse, representative of the liquidator of the Panama canal company, and the Colombian government for the extension of the Panama canal concessions and resumption of the work on the canal have collapsed and that the hopes of the bondholders are ended. The budget committee will submit this report to the chamber of deputies this week.
Executed for Treason.
SOFIA, June 23. The sentence of death pronounced upon Major Pujustu for conspiring to overthrow the government was carried out today. With a firm step he walked to the past and saluted the military officers present. He was then bound to the stake. Just before the order to fire was given the condemned man cried out in a loud voice: "Long live Bulgaria." The body was given to the widow. The execution took place at a camp near the city. Twenty-one bullets pierced his body.
Death of a Drummer.
IOWA CITY, June 23. S. L. Cumback, son of ex-Governor Cumback of Indiana, was found dead in a hotel this evening. He was traveling for a Boston house and had been in Iowa City about a week during which time he drank excessively. Cerebral congestion was the alleged cause of his death.
EXCITEMENT IN THE HOUSE,
A Great Uproar During the Discussion of the Federal Election Bill,
'MC COMAS' CALLS BLAND A HYPOCRITE'
Congressman Henderson of Iowa Takes a Prominent Part in the
Seventh Hills Passed by the Senate.
WASHINGTON, June 23. When the house met this morning Mr. Enloe of Tennessee moved to correct the Journal so as to strike through the titles of a number of private pension bills passed by the house last night. He claimed that the bills passed before the house went into committee of the whole and were not properly before the house. The house, however, refused to agree to his motion, so the bills stand passed.
The house then went into committee of the whole on the federal election bill.
Mr. McAdoo of New Jersey took the floor and made a vigorous speech in opposition to the bill. He based his opposition on the principle of home rule and the right of the people to control their own affairs without federal interference. He warned the republicans to beware of the experience of Waltington when prime minister of England. He begged the republicans, he implored them by their own sense of manliness to abandon the bill before the cry went up of "Liberty, forty, no interference with elections." Mr. McComas of Maryland reviewed the various election contests during the present congress to show the necessity for the passage of such a law. The democrats talked about the people as one kind of power and the gentleman from New Jersey (McAdoo) talked a great deal about home rule. Mr. McComas went on to say that the triumph of the white man's party in the south meant control not only of states but of the national legislature. Against tissue ballots, against false counting, against night raiders, against the shotgun policy, against intimidation, the dignity of the courts, the majesty of the law, the powers of the constitution assure justice to all men, white or black, in this country.
[Loud applause.]
Mr. Bland of Missouri twitted Mr. McCamas for having taken away from the black men of the District of Columbia the power of local government and never giving it to them again.
This resulted in an uproar, Messrs. Bland and McCamas shouting at the top of their voices amid the applause of their colleagues and the galleries.
Mr. McCamas declared that when Mr. Bland assumed an interest in eight or ten thousand black voters of the District, while during his long service here he had never raised his voice in behalf of the eight or ten million poor and oppressed black men in the country, he felt like calling him a hypocrite. Mr. Bland vehemently declared Mr. McCamas a hypocrite who felt no interest in the negro.
At this point the uproar became so great that nothing could be heard save the combined shouts of the debaters and the rapping of the speaker's gavel.
Mr. McCamas managed to shout: "The black man in this district is like the white," and he appealed to the people of the south to treat blacks and whites alike.
When quiet was finally restored, Mr. Cummins of New York spoke against the bill. The bill was a sectional one. The republican party proposed to make the negro a chattel to be used as a convenience whenever necessary.
Mr. Henderson of Iowa read from the speech of Mr. Hemphill, passage declaring that the whites must either rule or leave the south, and that they would not leave it. He wanted no further proof than that declaration that the blacks of South Carolina would not be allowed to exercise the rights guaranteed by the constitution. He felt warranted in saying that it was as dangerous as armed rebellion, and he meant it. He then read from an unserved letter in which Representative Hills wrote as saying that the passage of the bill meant an increased number of deaths among federal election officers in the south.
Ho did not know if this were true, but if so, it was another defiance. He served notice that the country would no longer submit to the rule of the minority. Under Clot he declared that Grover Cleveland had had no right to his seat in the White House and the democratic party had not had an honest majority in the House in twenty-five years. He wanted to say that before he should consent that the minority should govern the majority, he would favor the protection of every ballot box by a killing bullet. [Applause.] The House had been told that what was needed was not a new south, but a new north. They would get it. The north had peacefully and patiently submitted to this injustice. They had seen the control of the government by red hands wrested from its proper channels and the new north was at hand, which would enforce the law and the rights of every citizen. Let the south try a little justice. The key to the situation was in the observation of the law and where that could not be secured, a law must be made to secure it. He spoke briefly of the recent exhibition of the stars and bars and Confederate gray at Richmond. He would not have them forget the tender relations of the war, but he entered a protest against being told that a new north was needed when the flag of the dangerous south was flaunting in the face of the republic. The gentlemen might cry "liberty, liberty," but from the states from which many of them came it seemed to him like Satan wearing a cross when he sought to promulgate dark dogmas.
The conference report on the post office appropriation bill was adopted.
Mr. Kwart of North Carolina, republican, opposed the passage of the election bill. Unfortunately, politics had come to such a pass that under the rule of king caucus men would vote for measures that deep down in their hearts they did not believe in. As to the negroes' political rights, speaking for his own state, he unhesitatingly asserted that no republican in the state, black or white, was prevented from casting a vote. The elections there were absolutely fair. The entire people of the south should not be blamed for the acts of a few lawless men. He was sick and tired of the sensational talk about the negro problem. It was a delusion to suppose the negro was voting the republican ticket solidly. He was doing nothing of the kind. Many of them were voting the democratic ticket and it was getting more and more difficult every year for the republican party to control the negro. He had no hesitation in saying that not three-tenths of the negroes of the south would vote for the republican party if an election was held tomorrow.
Mr. Blackburn of Pennsylvania spoke against the bill and Greenhalgh of Massachusetts for it. The motion agreeing on the conference report on the legislative, executive, and judicial appropriation bill was adopted and the house took a recess.
At the evening session Mr. Chandler of Georgia protested that there was no necessity for a federal election law in his section of the country.
Mr. Brosius of Minnesota was for the bill.
Messrs. Buyers and Stewart of Texas said no complaint had ever been made against elections in Texas.
Mr. Stockdale of Minnesota declared that the energies of the south would be crushed by the passage of the bill.
Mr. Corof of Illinois favored the passage of the bill on the ground that the evidence of suppression of the negro votes in the south was complete. The house finally, at 11:30, adjourned.
Senate.
WASHINGTON, June 2. In the senate today a message was received from the house asking for a conference on the silver bill. It was immediately laid before the senate and a conference was agreed to. Messrs. Sherman, Jones of Nevada, and Burr were appointed conferees on the part of the senate. Mr. Morgan offered a resolution, which was agreed to, calling on the secretary of the interior for information as to the Spanish and Mexican private land claims pending in that department and in the United States courts.
The calendar was taken up and a number of bills passed, including the senate bill for a public building at Jacksonville, Ill., cutting $7,100.
The conference report on the post office appropriation bill was agreed to.
The agricultural appropriation bill and the pension bill for Mrs. General Crook were placed on the calendar.
The following bills were passed: Senate bill to reclassify and fix the salaries of mailway postal clerks; referring to the court of claims the claim on account of the use by the government of the Tiee spirit meter; the senate bill to amend the census act, providing a penalty for giving a fee or bonus to a census enumerator or supervisor or receiving the same.
A message was received from the president announcing his approval and signature to the dependent pension bill.
Adjourned.
STORM, EXCHANGE TURK MATER.
General Resistance of all Attempts to Enforce "Western Freight Rates.
CHICAGO, June 23. [Special Telegram to The Line.] The attempt to advance western freight rates has met with another set back on account of the wholesale cutting of rates on merchandise between Chicago and the west. Charges were freely made today that those rates had been cut 5 to 7 cents. If the charges are proved the Alton will not allow the advance of a solitary westbound rate until it is satisfied the cutting has ceased.
There is no question of the advance in rates and if the Alton can be satisfied its competitors will use the advance honestly and not as a means of cutting rates still deeper. It is not generally known, but it is a fact, that all the lines between Chicago and St. Paul have been ignoring the long and short haul clause of the interstate commerce act. This is done by making a through rate from the seaboard to St. Paul of 71 cents, while to intermediate points a higher rate applies in each instance.
The plan of advancing rates will be considered at the general meeting of the western lines next Wednesday. An attempt will be made to raise eastbound grain from the Missouri river as the Alton and Interstate commerce commission, between them, are more likely to lower these rates on account of their continued manipulations.
Chairman Aldgley's report of all coal traffic from Kansas City, St. Louis, Atchison, and Leavenworth for June to date shows the following: Total shipments, 1,306 cars, of which the Atchison carried 1,197 cars, of which 879 were cattle and 318 grain; Burlington, 1,013 cars, of which 635 were cattle and 378 grain; Alton, 1,102 cars, 278 being cattle and 73 grain; the Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas City, 1,010 cars, of which 1,005 were grain, none cattle and only sixty-seven cars of everything else besides grain.
Both General Manager Egan and Director Benson deny any knowledge of the changes in officials on the Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas City road. It is thought, however, the rumor may be true because of President Stickney's many outside ventures.
Two Personal Items.
CHICAGO, June 23. [Special Telegram to The Bane.] Assistant General Freight Agent Biddle of the Atchison has been appointed assistant freight traffic manager. His jurisdiction extends over the Atchison proper and leased lines, including the Chicago, Santa Fe & California, Chicago, Kansas & Western, New Mexico & Arizona, the Sonora railway, Southern California, and also the Wichita & Western. The appointment goes into effect, July 1. Taking effect the same day also, W. S. Butler is appointed commercial agent with headquarters at Quincy.
The Beatrice Chautauqua.
Beatrice, Neb., June 23 [Special to The Bane.] The third day of the Beatrice Chautauqua is fully up to the standard of attendance and interest with the corresponding day of last year. The fact of its being farmers' alliance and Knights of Labor day had much to do with increasing the attendance, but the excessive heat militates strongly against any great attendance at the halls for either lecture or study.
The steamboat is monopolizing most of the attention, as the river affords about the only endurable resort. The addresses of General Weaver, Captain Trevellick, and Mr. Tracy this afternoon and evening were well attended and eloquently delivered.

Fire Near Chicago Under Control.
Chicago, June 23. The fires near here are practically extinguished, being completely under control. The burnt district extends over an area of about 25,000 acres.
I can't Comply.
Chicago, June 23. [Special Telegram to The Daily: ] Health Commissioner Wickersham of Chicago received the following this morning:
Dear Sir: Would you kindly furnish us with a certificate that there have been no cattle diseases at the Union stockyards of this city for a number of years? We have made a shipment of animals to Germany, which is delayed by the lack of shipping. Trusting you will supply us with what we desire, we remain faithfully, WOLFF, SAYER, & HELLING:
"I cannot honestly give an answer," said Commissioner Wickersham, "and I won't do it. If I could honestly, I would hasten to comply, for I wish to protect the market as much as I can. If the Illinois state board of live stock commissioners were not permitted by an injunction restraining the city from interfering to bring diseased cattle into the stockyards and unload them in violation of the city ordinance, I would be able to say truthfully that there have been no cattle diseases at the stockyards."
A Reception in Dakota City.
The Dakota City Eagle has an interesting account of a reception tendered to a party of old settlers of that town. In the party were J. N. H. Patrick and wife, Mrs. K. Wakeley and daughter and Judge George W. Doane, wife and son, all of Omaha. Thirty years ago Mr. Patrick was register of the land office at that place. Judge Wakeley was territorial judge and Judge Doane was United States district attorney for the district. They were pioneers indeed, for at that time there were very few people in the section. The canoe used by the party was last year occupied by the Manderson party in their trip from New York up the Hudson and the White mountains. Judge Wakeley expected to be one of the party, but was prevented.
Population of the United States.
Washington, June 23. Superintendent of the Census Porter, in conversation with a reporter today, said from present indications the returns of the enumerators would show the total population of the United States to be 76,000,000, an increase of 14,000,000 in 1880.
The Business Portion of Murraysburg, Iowa, is Burning.
Des Moines, June 23. The business portion of Murraysburg, including the lumber yard, is burning rapidly this evening.
They Are Accorded a Hourly Respect Upon Their Arrival.
ITHACA, N. Y., June 26.-Special Telegram to The Daily: ] Since 1875, this city has not so completely abandoned everything else and devoted itself to a demonstration recent lion of the victorious Cornell crowds as it did today. A large fund contributed by the business men of the town was the means of converting the principal streets through which the victors passed tonight into veritable paths of fire and revelry. The community was beside itself with wild enthusiasm, and the din of horns, cannon, church bells, whistles, and bands of music was deafening. After speeches of welcome had been delivered in one of the parks by citizens and professors, the fire department and other organizations formed a procession and escorted the champions and Courteney, their coach, to the venerable Clinton house, where a banquet was spread. At least ten thousand people from country and city solidly lined the streets through which the procession passed. All day the work of decorating every building here was in progress, and tonight the illumination was general. In one of the store windows is an embellishment representing Yale in a cot, and bearing the legend, "Wait for Yale," which elicits some criticism.
CONSIDERATIONS OF THE UNION PACIFIC COAL DEPARTMENT AND MINERS.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 26. [Special Telegram to The Daily: ] There is trouble brewing between the Union Pacific coal department and the miners employed at Rock Springs. The question is one of screens, with which all coal sent to the surface of the mines is to be screened, after which the men will be paid only for nut and lump coal. The company claims that the quality of the coal is deteriorating and they cannot keep some of their best customers, including the Anaconda smelter, unless the coal is improved in quality under the present system. They claim that a good miner is paid no more than the poor miner provided that they each mine the same quantity, as its quality cuts no figure.
The men, on the other hand, claim that the coal company should only employ good miners, that the introduction of the screens means a subsequent reduction of wages. The Chinese and Finale miners have decided to stand by the rest of the miners in case of a strike. One mine has already been shut down, but it is hoped that arbitration may yet settle the differences. The outcome can not yet be predicted.

SIMMERING IN THE JUNE SUN
The Present Hot Season Unprecedented in the Mississippi Valley,
A COOLER PERIOD IS PROMISED,
Severe Summer Heat Protracted by the Into the Heat Outdoor Work Undaunted in Many Places Signal Service Report.
WASHINGTON, June 28. The signal office special weather bulletin says the present period of continued high temperature in the middle Mississippi valley is unprecedented for June. Beginning with Tuesday, June 28, when the temperature was 10 degrees above the normal height, it has gradually risen till the 26th and 27th to nearly 20 degrees above. The cause for this abnormal condition has been the uniform high pressure in the gulf region with an almost stationary low pressure area in the northwest. This distribution of atmosphere has caused a steady flow of warm, dry air to the northward, The inflow of air has been too slow to induce a rainfall, and the consequent clear sky has been favorable to extreme radiation from the sun which has raised the temperature steadily without the usual relief from the passage of storms across the country. Relief from these conditions may be expected Sunday night.
At St. Paul.
ST. PAUL, Minn., June 28. [Special Telegram to THE BRAND.] For the past four days the heat in St. Paul has been so intense as to be almost unbearable. Yesterday afternoon the Fahrenheit thermometer in St. Paul indicated a temperature of 108 degrees, the hottest weather here since July 18, 1891. During the night and up to 1:15 this afternoon there was hardly an abatement of the heat; at that hour, however, a heavy rain and windstorm came up, cooling the atmosphere.
Reports of fatalities from sunstroke are coming in from all parts of the state, the number prostrated being especially large from Winona and other points along the southern border of Minnesota.
In St. Paul, Zenel Horios, while out for a walk on University avenue, was overcome, wandered into a barn, lay down on a pile of hay, and died before a physician could reach him. On lower Seventh street, J.W. Patterson was prostrated and carried into a store, where he died in ten minutes. There were also many prostrations among the laborers on the Sclby avenue and University cable extensions. On the former, a contractor became so alarmed at the number of his men stricken that he ordered all work stopped and sent the men to their homes.
There are rumors that crops are severely scalded from the heavy rainfall, followed suddenly by the intense heat.
Cooler at St. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, June 28. Notwithstanding the assertion of the signal service people that there are no signs or prospects of an immediate break in the heated term which has been roasting this city for more than a week, the temperature is several degrees lower today than it was yesterday and the preceding days. Nevertheless, the weather is intensely hot and the suffering great among the people. Small children especially suffer, and the mortality among those under three years old has been unusual.
The Heat in Chicago.
CHICAGO, June 28. Today was much warmer than yesterday, the signal service thermometer registering 88 degrees at 8 o'clock this morning, or 5 degrees higher than at the same hour yesterday. At 11 o'clock the thermometers indicated a temperature of 92 degrees, but at that hour a refreshing breeze was blowing and broken clouds obscured the sun. Five deaths from sunstroke have been reported to the coroner today.
The temperature reached the highest point of the season this afternoon, registering 95 degrees, and at a late hour this evening it stood at 88 degrees. There were half a dozen fatal cases of sunstroke, and probably twenty-five prostrations during the day. The latter will all recover. In Cincinnati.
O. Junio US. The heat still continues here, the signal service thermometers registering 87 °. There have been from three to six prostrations from heat each day during the spell, about a fourth of them being fatal.

Alpinist, Wis., Junio 28. This is the hottest day of the season thus far. The thermometer at 11 o'clock this morning registered 90 °. Since early morning, police patrols are being kept busy responding to cases of prostration on the streets. Only one fatality is thus far reported. Twenty cases of prostration are reported, two of which were fatal. Several factories closed down today due to the heat.
At St. Louis.
St. Louis, Mo., Junio 28. [Special Telegraph to The Belt.] The weather today was extremely hot, the thermometer marking 92 ° at the signal office. A number of prostrations occurred this morning, but none of them are expected to result fatally.
At Louisville.
Louisville, Ky., Junio 28. At 11 o'clock this morning the mercury stood at 102, but an hour later it had fallen two points. Thirteen persons were prostrated by the heat but only one of the cases has proved fatal. Since the boating term began there have been eight fatalities.
At Indianapolis.

T'he question of establishing a branch of

brought up by a rcK | > rt on a resolution to
that effect Introduced at the last meeting.
The matter wa < argued by Messrs. Robinson -
son nnh Points , the latter arguing that tbo
high school should be kept Intact.
It was llnally decided to send the Nlnlh

Mr. Points moved to reconsider this ac
tion , mid afterwards moved to postpone the

ried ,
Dr. Savllle then called up the report of the
committee on high school on the salaries of
the high school teachers. The doctor stated
that the committee had "equal
ized" the salaries of the teachers.
In explanation the doctor said the
salaries of II vo of the teachers had been In

done all the business necessary for tbo next
year.
year.A motion to adjourn prevailed.

The class of ' 00 of the Omaha high school
Is but a reminiscence of the p.ist , except in
so far as it now forms a branch of the alumni
association of that institution. Ono last re
union last Friday evening lltiishcd the fes
tivities of commencement week. This con
sisted of a formal reception given in the halls
of tlio school building by the older graduates
of tlio high school.
A largo number of former classmates as
sembled to renew acquaintances , while selec
tions by an orchestra enabled tboso so desir
ing to indulge in the pleasures of a summer
hop. Refreshments in tlio form ice cream ,
eako and lemonade were served In the baso-
montof the First M. 1C. church on the op

Tlie ImHt Pn y I > iiy.
Scores of happy school teachers , In light
lawn dresses and with faces wreathed In
smiles , gossipped and laughed together yes
terday In the oftleo of the secretary of the
board of education.
They were there to draw the p.iy duo them
for their labors in instructing the young idea
during the last month of the school year.
Secretary Piper's head bobbed up and down
as ho nodded to the continuous stream of
bright femininity that poured in upon him.
There is a time of unalloyed happiness in
the unusually humdrum life of an instructor
in tlio public schools , and that Is the last pay
duv of the year.
Ten months of dreary , patient toil huvo
dragged their weary lengths. There huvo
been trials and sere vexations , and some
times it seemed as though the strain would
prove too grout. There huvo boon mornings
when one felt as though to take up the struggle -
glo of the day would bean impossibility. ISut
this is all over now. The last pay day has
come and vavntion.timo Is hero.
The clouds have rolled away and the blessed
touchers arehappy. .
They wore children themselves yesterday
as they chatted , their tongues running In
an unceasing and badly jumbled chatter.
Many of those who drew their warrants
loft the city immediately afterwards for their
summer's outing and soon will bo dreaming
the hours of a long summer day away in tbo
cool recesses of some sylvan shade , forgetful
of all that is past , ignoring tlio future and
living only the happy present.

ItH Kxtrnordlmu-y Growth and Devel
opment tlio Past l lvo Years.
LINCOLN , Neb. , June 28. To the Editor of
Tin : Dii : : : Five years ago there wore twelve
professors , all told , for the work of tlio
academic and Industrial colleges ; now tbcro
are twenty-two. Then there were In these
colleges 101 students ; now thcro are L''il.
Then the total enrollment was 'flS ; now it is
17i > . Then there was but one building on the
campus ; now there are live.
The internal development has been still
moro marked. The department of philosophy
luts come into being during the past two
years , and is presided over by a professor
trained under the best instructors in Ger
many. Already a considerable apparatus has
been collected for use in experimental re
searches. The departments of Greek and
Latin have been strengthened by the addition
of tbo chair of classical philosophy. Tlio
library of classical literature has been greatly
increased , and a beginning has been made of
a classical museum. In mathematics
an adjunct professor has been
added , and a considerable amount of
apparatus supplied. Chemistry has been
developed from a small department occupy
ing their poorly lilted rooms , to completely
tilling a large building of eighteen rooms , and
supplied with from * 10l)0 ( ) ) to $1:3,000 : worth of
apparatus. Then it received n part of tbo
time of one professor ; now it gives full em
ployment to two professors , one instructor
and several assistants.
What is now tin' department of physics , oc
cupying nine large rooms and requiring tbo
services of two professors , was then included
in live department of chemistry. Tlio present
outlit of apparatus includes many of the tlnest
pieces made , in the subjects of light , heat
and electricity. The geological department ,
with its line museum and ample labrntory and
lecture rooms , bus grown to its present pro
portions from tlio dingy museum and
single small room of live yours ago.
The department of botany nnd horticulture
occupied two small rooms for all purposes ,
and was not overcrowded. Today it Illls
seven rooms with its specimens , books nnd
apparatus. Then one man gave instructions
in French and German to a few students ;
now two are heavily burdened with the labor
of teaching large classes in these and other
modern languiigcs.with Sanskrit and Hebrew
in addition. Then the professor of English
literature divided bis time between his
proper work and the drudgery of rhetoric and
composition ; now there are two separate do-
piirtmonts , each occupying tbo full time of a
professor.
The department of history today , with its
two professors , lias grown in means and ap
pliances , and by tlio recent creation of the
allied department of political and economic
science advanced work in both lines has
been most successfully prosecuted. Civil
Engineering was allotted a single room for
all its work ; now it has four , with greatly in
creased apparatus. Th3 department of ugri-
eultur.il Inology is of recent creation. Its
rooms , with excellent apparatus for investi
gation into tbo physiology and embryology of
animals , replace tlio meagre outfit of n few
years ago devoted to stock breeding and
allied subjects. Then but few students at
tended tlio unpopular lectures , now tbo de
partment is popular and well attended.
Five years ago tlio university library
contained books in a small room , now
there are about twelve thousand
In the general library , which occupies a
larger mid bettor room , with many moro in
the special libraries of the departments.
Then there was but a beginning of a single
museum ; now there are live collections in
geology and mineralogy , zoology , entomology ,
botany , agriculture , chemistry and art. Then
there was scarcely a laboratory in any
science ; now there are no less than eight
well equipped laboratories , viz , in chemistry ,
physics , geology , zoology , entomology , botany ,
agricultural biology and civil engineering.
That the faculty of tbo university is n
liberally educated one is shown by the lact
that it includes graduates of tbo following
colleges and universities , viz : Union , Ober-
lin , Yale , Denison , Hiram , Michigan Agri
culturalWilliams , Princeton , Nebraska , Boston -
ton , West Point , Berlin , Leip/.ig , Zurich ,
London , Rochester , Johns Hopkins , Western
Reserve , Ohio , Harvard , lo-.va and Hillsdnlo.

As soon as Mr. Gurloy called the assembly
to order it plunged into a hot discussion over
n notion mule by Mr. Lytle to exclude all
spectators from the room. This was llnally
declared out of order by the chui" because of
its previousness , 110 secretary .having yet
been chosen. Somebody nominated E. O.
Mayfleld of South Omaha for that place , and
he was unanimously elected.
Then followed a motion to go into executive
session , and it was carried. Reporters , can
didates and everybody else not entitled by
membership authority to remain were bustled
out.
out.This
This action , however , had no special sig
nificance. The object of the meeting was to
determine upon and announce dates for hold
ing the primary election at which delegates
to n county convention will bo elected , who ,
in turn , are to select sixty-nine delegates to
the state convention. Still a point was raised
which to some extent showed the drift of
gubernatorial sentiment in Douglas county.
It was embodied in n motion that the designa
tion of polling .places , as well as the naming
of judges and clerics for the primary
election , bo left to the executive committee
of the central committee. This stirred up
quite a lively discussion , but tlio motion went
through by a vote of nineteen to nine.
It was decided to bold tlio primaries July
11 , from Ito t > o'clock in tlio city , and from
7 to ! ) o'clock in tbo country precincts ; and
to hold tiic convention July 1J , at - o'clock.
Tno committee then adjourned to meet
again next Saturday and hear a report from
the executive committee.
WASHINGTON IS MISTAKRV. *
Mr. linker Holds that the Title to tlio
I'oNtolHuo Lot < s in the Government.
United States Attorney Baker is very in
dignant at the charge made by tlio authorities
in Washington , as appeared in the correspond
ence of Tin : Bii : : ( that it was duo to his idle
ness that the matter of proceeding with tbo
work on the new government building has
been delayed.
"I bavo done , " said Mr. Baker yesterday
morning , "all I could do in tlio matter except
to take a hammer and go out and pull down the
old rookeries that encumber the lots , and it is
too infernally hot to do that. I received tlio
money from Washington ono Sunday mornIng -
Ing and before U o'clock Monday morning I
bad paid it into the hands of I ho court. As
far as tlio title is concerned , it is now , with
out question , vested in the United Statesnnd
the delay is occasioned by the departments
alono. All that was necessary for the title to *
become vested in the United States was the
money to bo paid into tbo court and the titles
approved , and this has been done.
Judge Dundy was also seen in regard to
the matter. He declared tint at this time
( lie district attorney Had as inneli to do with
tlio matter as any other ordinary citizen und
no moro.
He took the same position ns Mr. linker
had taken in regard to the title to the prop-
ertv , asserting that it became invested in the
United States as soon as ttio money bad been
paid into the court. It was not necessary
that this money bo paid to these people before
fore tbo title of the government became clear.
About $ J. > , ( XH ) yet remains in the judge's
hands to bo disbursed. Of this amount
about iJlH.ooo belongs to Benjamin F. , Alice
S. and Nellie R. Folsom and Mary Augusta
Martin , minors , now residing in New York ,
and to represent whose interests no guardian
lias yet appeared. Two foreign mortgage
companies own tlio bulk of the remainder.
Judge Dnndy says that the delay is attrib
utable solely to the departments at Washing
ton. The most sensible reason , ho adds , that
bo hits heard given is tbo one advanced that
it might bo well to wait before commencing
the plans until congress disposes of the
pending bill to increase the limit of cost.
Second Ward IteptihlioaiiH.
Tlio Second ward republican club held n
meeting at Kuspar's hull last night. Barely
a quorum was present , owing to the threaten
ing storm. President O'Donovan occupied
tlio chair and D. D. O'Connell acted as sec-
rotary. Tlio minutes of tlio last previous
meeting was read , showing that the only bus
iness was the allowing of a few bills. Dan
O'Keoffo rose to remark that bo was for
Mercer llrst , last and all the time , but that
the party who thought bo hud Dan O'Keelfo
In his Docket had a big load. Ho further in
timated that money had changed bunds to
iix the ward.
( ins Hamcl took the floor next nnd pro
ceeded to roast Frank Kuspar and Hascidl
and all other supposed cundtdnUis for alder-
manle honors , Intimating at the same time
that ho was the man of destiny.
There was a great deal of raising to points
of order and questions of privilege with very
little result.
The meeting finally adjourned without tak
ing any action , tliougn the drift of the talk
showed that tbo members present considered
that there wa a political combination against
the Second ward , which should bo mot , and
that everybody favored Mercer or anyone else
in preference to Broatch for governor.
A I\\K \ \ I ten I HHtato Deal.
Ono of the largest real estate deals which
has taken place this season lias been recorded.
It will involve perhaps about sixty-live lots
In Albright , which have been purchased by
E. S. Rood. The value of the lots , the deeds
to which have been recorded , is placed at
Sri.rJO.
It was learned from reliable authority that
these lots were purchased by Mr. Rood with
a view to dlspo.-lng of them to the Rock
Island iieonlo for a round house and side
trackage. The company has already secured
the right of way through South Omaha and
all the way to Lincoln.

Haln luterlVrcH with ( he Meetings of
Milkmen and Antl-ProhlhltlonlstH.
Even the milkmen found too much water
last night , and ns a result the meeting which
was to have been held nt Wolff's hull went by
default.
President Littlofleld was in attendance and
took occasion to remark that the ordinance
now before the council for Its consideration is
illegal. Said ho : "It provides a tax of * l to
be levied against each cow. This would turn
the sum of f 10,000 Into the city treasury , mid
ns this sum , which is In the nature of n li
cense , exceeds the regular tax , 1 tlilnk it can
not bo collected.
"Aside from tills it Is unjust for there is
the Waterloo creamery , with 1,000 cows , and
if the city asked that outlit to pay a license
of 81,000 each year it would force the Insti
tution out of business. We want to have the
grade of milk i-.dsed , but wo want It to come
about by fair means and not by opposition. "
The milkmen will try und hold a meeting
next Saturday night.
Rain prevented tbo Swedish nntt-probibl-
tionists from holding the meeting booked for
last night. E. M. Htenberg , the president of
the club , was promptly on hand , but as only
n handful of the membar.s assembled the
meeting adjourned without llxlng any date
for the next meeting.

South Oinaha'M School Board Siiinthli | *
SofTii O.M.VII \ , Neb. , June 'J7. To the Ed
itor of Tin : Dic : : My attention was called
tills morning to mi article in an Omaha morn
ing paper headed "A Just Remonstrance , "
and the substance of said article was to Iho
effect that the citizens of South Omaha were
aggrieved at the refusal of Mr. Persons to
sign orders for wages duo the teachers. In
answer to that part I will state that the or
ders were lllled out mid signed by Robert
Funston. Where does ho get bis authority
to attach his slgniituye thereto as u member
nnd secretary of the South Omaha school
board ( It is a question for tlio courts to de
cide who has the proper authority to act as a
member and secretary of the school board ,
and until then I am powerless to countersign
a school order or recognize either one of the
contestants as secretary of the board. Tbo
above headed article is continued ns follows :
"Mr. Pei-sons bases bis refusal upon the
fact that Mr. Carroll is contesting tlio deci
sion of Judge Shields giving Mr. Funston a
seat , and ho will not sign tbo order * ;
until the matter is settle 1. There is
not a fair minded man in tlio city
rich or poor , but regrets that Mr. Carroll
should have taken the stops that lie has , and
also that ho is upheld by Mr. Persons. "
In reply to this paragraph 1 will state can
didly and truthfully that I do not , uphold
either party in the contest , and that any and
every citizen nnd taxpayer in this city , who
is liberal-minded and possesses a fair quan
tity of intelligence rcali/.es the exact posi
tion 1 am placed in as president of the South
Omaha school board In the niifortunnto suit
between two parlies. I was elected to 1111 my
present position by tbo residents of this city ,
and lor their interests , and their interests
wholly , will I work , and not for any selfish
ness in this matter. In conclusion I will
slate that tbo city treasurer could not and
would not cash the orders not properly and
authentically signed. Respectfully yours ,

1400 Douglas St Omaha , | THE ELECTION OF TEACHERS,
It Is Proceeded With Despite Some Very Vigorous Protests.
A MINORITY REPORT IS ADOPTED,
The right of the Pro, temp Board to 'Take Action on the Matter
found by Several Members.
The board of education met in special session last night for the purpose of electing teachers and considering such other business as might come up. The absentees were Messrs. Martin and Fulton.
A petition was received from parents in the vicinity of Webster asking that an eighth grade be placed in that building and it was referred to the proper committee.
John Daly requested a renewal of his contract for drain laying and sewer building. Referred to the new board.
The pastor of the Saratoga Congregational church notified the board that they required the building for church purposes only, and requested the board to vacate. The matter was referred to the superintendent of buildings.
Mr. Points, chairman of the committee on teachers and examinations, stated that an official committee had not signed the report of the committee and therefore he would not make a report.
Dr. Spalding presented a minority report of the committee, which was read, and the doctor moved that the minority report be adopted.
Mr. Rees moved to adjourn. The motion was lost.
A communication was presented by Mr. Babcock, one of the members-elect, which was partly read by the secretary. It seemed to be a legal opinion on the right of the old board to elect teachers. Before the reading had proceeded very far numerous objections were made, and on the question being put the reading was not allowed. Mr. Rees said he had always held that the old board had no right to elect teachers for the new board, and moved that the names of the respective teachers be stricken off the list.
Mr. McConnell attempted to show by a series of illustrations that the only proper thing to do was for the old board to elect the teachers for fear the teachers should get away.
After several members had expressed their opinion on the question Mr. Rees' motion to strike out the special teachers was lost.
Mr. Wehrer moved to adjourn. Seconded by Rees, The motion was lost.
Mr. Rees moved to amend the minority report by striking out the name of the special teacher in drawing, Mrs. Kate Al. Ball. The motion was lost.
Mr. Points moved that the election of teachers be postponed until the organization of the new board. The motion was lost.
Mr. Wehrer moved to lay on the table. Lost.
Mr. McConnell called for the previous question on the adoption of the minority report of the committee. The motion carried.
The board then proceeded to the election of teachers, Messrs. Coryell and Poppleton being appointed tellers.
Messrs. Rees and Wehrer refused to vote.
The result of the vote showed the following teachers elected:

The committee on High school recommended the following teachers for the High school, who were voted for and declared elected:
Homer P. Lewis, principal; Alonzo N. Henshaw, assistant principal; S. D. Beals, Irwin Leviston, Louis J. Black, Myron W. Richardson, Albert A. Bullington, Samantha R. Davis, Mary E. Quinckenbach, Villa B. Shippoy, Hello H. Lewis, Decio A. Johnston, Thomas Crowley, Suzanne A. Walker, Adele I. Robertson, Elizabeth P. Goodsou, Bessie M. Snyder, Grace B. Sudborough.
The teachers will not be imputed to part-time schools until the close of vacation in September.
A motion by Coryell and Coburn presented a resolution proposing to allow teachers who have been ill absent on account of sickness, pay for such time, not to exceed ten days. The total amounted to $1,019.07. On motion, it was laid on the table.
The committee on finance reported the probable expenses of the board for the coming year, and the estimated income from state apportionment. The estimated expenses were $8,000, the income $7,500, leaving a balance of $500 to be raised by direct taxation, making levy of 1.4 mills. The report of the committee was adopted.
The question of establishing a branch of the high school at the Pleasant school was brought up by a report on a resolution to that effect introduced at the last meeting. The matter was argued by Messrs. Robinson and Points, the latter arguing that the high school should be kept intact.
It was finally decided to send the Ninth grade pupils to the Pleasant school.
Mr. Points moved to reconsider this action, and afterwards moved to postpone the reconsideration until the next meeting. Carried.
Dr. Saville then called up the report of the committee on high school on the salaries of the high school teachers. The doctor stated that the committee had "equalized" the salaries of the teachers.
In explanation, the doctor said the salaries of 12 of the teachers had been increased from $400 to $700.
Mr. Rees thought it was funny that salaries were always "equalized up" and never down.
Attempts were made to postpone and to lay on the table, but were unsuccessful.
Another attempt to lay on the table until the next meeting was successful.
The president was instructed to sign a petition for paving North Twentieth street with Colorado sandstone.
Superintendent James was authorized to employ a clerk to assist him in compiling his annual report.
Mr. Points inquired whether the board was going to play ball with the council team or whether the thing was a joke.
He was informed that tickets had been sold and the game must be played.
Mr. Rees moved that the board adjourn for a year, remarking sarcastically that they had done all the business necessary for the next year.
A motion to adjourn prevailed.
Grand opening of college!
The members of the graduating class of the high school listened not long before commencement day to several addresses by prominent men, who urged them to continue their work in various colleges and universities.
Whether the students had previously decided upon their course or were persuaded by those words of advice, a large proportion of the class of '90 intends to pursue a still higher education in order to fit themselves for business or the professions. Many have already selected the institution which they will attend. The state normal school at Peru will receive the greatest number: Misses Minerva Doyle, Lucy W. Evans, Edna M. Harney, Anna J. Mack, Mary McMahon, Mary Letoy, Minnie A. Lawton, Elizabeth Liddell, Hannah J. Nelson; Amelia V. Pearson, Isabella Ross, Eva Spiegel, and Anna K. Whitrow.
Three young ladies will go to Oberlin: Misses Sadie T. Lyman, Doris McMaster, and Louise F. Holstorf.
A like number, Misses Harriet E. Brown, Alda U. Mills, and Alice H. Howell, will attend Wellsley.
Miss Durandilla Brown will go to the Nebraska state university; Miss Fleta Riddell to Vassar, and Miss Maude Church to Morgan Park, Chicago.
Of the young men, the largest number for any one institution will go to Princeton, where Larrimore C. Denise, Paul H. Ludington, and Will S. Rosters will study.
Harvard follows with two: Carleton M. Carter and Edward T. Stiger as also Cornell, which will receive Thomas W. Button and Frank H. Harris. Silas H. Browster will attend Doane college at Crete; Thomas Craig will be at Lake Forest; Fred S. Nave will study at the Ohio Wesleyan university; Carlton N. Rowley will be found at the Rensselaer Polytechnic institute, while Arthur Shields will continue his studies at either Ann Arbor or Dartmouth.
High school class of 1890.
The class of '90 of the Omaha high school is but a reminiscence of the past, except in so far as it now forms a branch of the alumni association of that institution. One last reunion last Friday evening held the festivities of commencement week. This consisted of a formal reception given in the halls of the school building by the older graduates of the high school.
A large number of former classmates assembled to renew acquaintances, while selections by an orchestra enabled those desiring to indulge in the pleasures of a summer hop. Refreshments in the form of ice cream, cake, and lemonade were served in the basement of the First M. E. church on the opposite corner. About 110, besides the class of '90, were in attendance. The representatives of the earliest classes were: Miss Stella Crowley '82, the Misses Truland '78, Mr. Charles Elguter '71, Miss Jessie Allen '71, Mrs. Judge McCullough '73, and Miss Mary Fitch '80.
The dancing continued until after midnight, when all departed bearing pleasant recollections of happily spent school days.
The last pay day.
Scores of happy school teachers, in light lawn dresses and with faces wreathed in smiles, gossiped and laughed together yesterday in the office of the secretary of the board of education.
They were there to draw the pay due them for their labors in instructing the young idea during the last month of the school year.
Secretary Piper's head bobbed up and down as he nodded to the continuous stream of bright femininity that poured in upon him.
There is a time of unalloyed happiness in the unusually humdrum life of an instructor in the public schools, and that is the last pay day of the year.
Ten months of dreary, patient toil have dragged their weary lengths. There have been trials and severe vexations, and sometimes it seemed as though the strain would prove too great. There have been mornings when one felt as though to take up the struggle of the day would be an impossibility. But this is all over now. The last pay day has come and vacation time is here.
The clouds have rolled away and the blessed vacationers are happy.
They were children themselves yesterday as they chatted, their tongues running in an unceasing and badly jumbled chatter.
Many of those who drew their warrants left the city immediately afterwards for their summer's outing and soon will be dreaming the hours of a long summer day away in the cool recesses of some sylvan shade, forgetful of all that is past, ignoring the future, and living only the happy present.
Omaha boys and girls ahmad.
During the past school year quite a number of Omaha young ladies and gentlemen have been in attendance upon eastern colleges. Nearly all of these have returned home for the summer vacation or are on their way. These from Yale are Messrs. Charles and Augustus Countze, Fred and Walter Preston, Wallace Brown, and George Mercer.
The representation at Ann Arbor comprises Charles O. Thomas, Lorin Crummer, Edgar and Joseph Morseman. Herbert Rogers has returned from Princeton, as also have Nathan Bernstein and Irving Hudson from Dartmouth. Randolph Brown, Allen Marsh and Jay Brown make up the Omaha delegation at Amherst. Victor Roosevelt and Augustus Dotworther were in attendance upon Johns Hopkins.
Three young ladies - Misses Edith James, Anna and Lydia McGuire are spending this year at Wellesley; Miss May Copelman was at Vassar; Miss Wallace was at Smith; Miss Nellie Rosenthaler was at Cooper Institute.
A Graduate in Art.
Miss Marguerite Cotter has returned after seven years of study in art industriously followed at the Academy of the Immaculate Conception at Davenport, la. This young lady enjoys the distinction of being the first to graduate from this academy in this distinctive branch, which has been for several years under the control of some of the ablest instructors in the country. Miss Cotter brings with her a number of pictures which show true artistic instinct as well as devotion to her profession which augurs well for the future. Among the pieces brought home by her, and which will shortly be displayed in public, are the following: "Immaculate Conception," a copy from Murillo, "Midnight Challenge," "A Study of Sheen," "Dew Drop," "A Study of Flowers," "Little Girl at the Well," "Hums on the Nile," "Fog on the Thames," "Lutheran Cookbook," "Fruit Piece," "Hunting Scene," "Study of Owls" Portrait of T.H. Cotter. This is a varied showing and displays a versatility which is in some respects remarkable.
Daughter of a Graduate.
Miss Dunclanchod Dutch, daughter of F.A. Dalle of the Hotel Dakota, has returned as a graduate of the high school at Davenport, la. Her graduation was attended with the honors of the class and was witnessed by many of her former friends, as also by her brothers, James, George and Frank. Miss Dalle's father was in the first graduating class of the same institution a number of years ago and Miss Dalle is the first descendant of a graduate who has been sent forth by the same institution.
Creighton University Professors' Retreat.
The professors of Creighton college will be variously engaged during the present vacation, some seeking rest and pleasure at various places and others conducting spiritual retreats in several religious institutions in various sections of the country.

Prof. O'Connor goes to Denver.
The STATE UNIVERSITY.
Its Extraordinary Growth and Development the Past Five Years.
LINCOLN, Neb., June 28. To the Editor of The Daily: Five years ago there were twelve professors, all told, for the work of the academic and industrial colleges; now there are twenty-two. Then there were in these colleges 101 students; now there are 612. Then the total enrollment was 158; now it is 1716. Then there was but one building on the campus; now there are five.
The internal development has been still more marked. The department of philosophy has come into being during the past two years, and is presided over by a professor trained under the best instructors in Germany. Already a considerable apparatus has been collected for use in experimental researches. The departments of Greek and Latin have been strengthened by the addition of the chair of classical philosophy. The library of classical literature has been greatly increased, and a beginning has been made of a classical museum. In mathematics an adjunct professor has been added, and a considerable amount of apparatus supplied. Chemistry has been developed from a small department occupying poorly fitted rooms, to completely filling a large building of eighteen rooms, and supplied with from $10,000 to $1,300 worth of apparatus. Then it received a part of the time of one professor; now it gives full employment to two professors, one instructor and several assistants.
What is now the department of physics, occupying nine large rooms and requiring the services of two professors, was then included in the department of chemistry. The present outfit of apparatus includes many of the finest pieces made, in the subjects of light, heat and electricity. The geological department, with its fine museum and ample laboratory and lecture rooms, has grown to its present proportions from the dingy museum and single small room of five years ago.
The department of botany and horticulture occupied two small rooms for all purposes, and was not overcrowded. Today it fills seven rooms with its specimens, books and apparatus. Then one man gave instructions in French and German to a few students; now two are heavily burdened with the labor of teaching large classes in these and other modern languages, with Sanskrit and Hebrew in addition. Then the professor of English literature divided his time between his proper work and the drudgery of rhetoric and composition; now there are two separate departments, each occupying the full time of a professor.
The department of history today, with its two professors, has grown in means and appliances, and by the recent creation of the allied department of political and economic science advanced work in both lines has been most successfully prosecuted. Civil Engineering was allotted a single room for all its work; now it has four, with greatly increased apparatus. The department of zoology is of recent creation. Its rooms, with excellent apparatus for investigations into the physiology and embryology of animals, replace the meager outfit of a few years ago devoted to stock breeding and allied subjects. Then but few students attended the unpopular lectures; now the department is popular and well attended.
Five years ago the university library contained books in a small room; now there are about twelve thousand in the general library, which occupies a larger and better room, with many more in the special libraries of the departments. Then there was but a beginning of a single museum; now there are five collections in geology and mineralogy, zoology, entomology, botany, agriculture, chemistry and art. Then there was scarcely a laboratory in any science; now there are no less than eight well equipped laboratories, viz., in chemistry, physics, geology, zoology, entomology, botany, agricultural biology and civil engineering.
That the faculty of the university is a liberally educated one is shown by the fact that it includes graduates of the following colleges and universities, viz.: Union, Oberlin, Yale, Denison, Hiram, Michigan Agricultural, Williams, Princeton, Nebraska, Boston, West Point, Berlin, Leipzig, Zurich, London, Rochester, Johns Hopkins, Western Reserve, Ohio, Harvard, Iowa and Hildale.

TOO WARM TO BE SOCIAL
As a consequence of the Queen of Pleasure's search, her festival was illuminated by several rainbow-colored lights at different locations where parties were held, including Mr. T. Kimball's residence on Park Wild Avenue.
The lawn around the residence was like a scene from fairyland on Friday night. Scores of Chinese lanterns hung like rainbow-colored fruit from the low-hanging branches of the trees or trailed in long graceful festoons from branch to branch. Glaring locomotive headlights in different parts of the ground shed a hood of light on groups of white dresses scattered in various parts of the beautiful lawn and the Union Pacific band discoursed sweet music for the delectation of the guests.
The occasion was the lawn party given for the benefit of the Creche.
Mrs. Kimball and her daughter had spent a great deal of time and exercised a great deal of taste in the decoration of the grounds, and the result was a pleasing surprise to those who were present. The smooth level croquet ground had been enclosed with wire netting ornamented with all sorts of fanciful designs in Chinese lanterns, and seated inside with tables and chairs were charming young ladies serving ice cream and cake. Along the south side of the house were a series of booths where candy, flowers, and lemonade were dispensed. Attached to each flower was a number entitled the holder to a chance in the drawing for a pin which had been presented for the purpose. There were about 150 people on the grounds, and the pleasant company, the fine music, and delicious refreshments combined to make the evening a memorable one.
Williamson-Winsman.
The marriage of another Omaha gentleman has just been added to the list of the wedded. This time it is Mr. Charles E. Williamson, son of Mr. Theodore Williamson of this city, who was married to Miss Anna Winsman at the residence of the bride's parents in Lancaster, Pa. The wedding was a quiet, home affair graced with beautiful flowers and handsome presents. After the ceremony was performed, Mr. and Mrs. Williamson started upon a bridal tour of Columbus, Cincinnati, and St. Louis, whence they came immediately to Omaha where they will make their home.
Whelan Clinic Lawn Party.
The Omaha Wheel Club gave its first lawn party on Tuesday evening. Only the members of the club and their friends were in attendance, and the evening was one to be remembered. The lawn was prettily decorated with Chinese lanterns strung in graceful festoons from tree to tree.
In the club house, refreshments suitable to the weather were served and thoroughly enjoyed. An impromptu concert in which the Mandolin Club took part and dancing filled up the remainder of the evening.
Polinson-Hudson.
A small company of friends gathered at the home of T.P. Cartwright, 1512 Capitol Avenue, last week, to witness the ceremony which made one Frank B. Robinson of Sioux City and Miss Kate L. Hudson, a teacher in the Farnam school. Dr. Daryea performed the ceremony, after which the couple left for Sioux City.

Yesterday's meeting of the County Republican Central Committee.
A goodly number of local politicians exchanged views on gubernatorial matters at the Mullen hotel yesterday afternoon. A meeting of the Republican county central committee, called by Vice Chairman Moses O'Brien, brought them together. W. F. Decile, ex-Sheriff Coburn, ex-Mayor Diatch, Paul Vannervoot and several other prominent party workers were there to see what course matters would take. Chairman W. F. Gurley called the meeting to order at 2:30 o'clock. Among the active members present were Thomas Sudborough, Dan O'Keefe, John Duller, Dr. M. O. Rickerts, Charley Saunders, J. C. Thompson, Tom McGrath, E. O. Mayfield and U. H. Dulong. Following is the personnel of the committee, as made up last fall:
W. F. Gurley, chairman.
First Ward W. Lytle, J. H. Duller, J. Roslcky.
Second Ward D. O'Keefe, John Hog, Fred Behm.
Third Ward M. O. Rickerts, S. D. Smith, Leo Hurtle.
Fourth Ward T. C. Sudborough, Elijah Drum, Moses O'Brien.
Fifth Ward C. L. Saunders, George King, H. Sullivan.
Sixth Ward C. R. Kelsey, W. A. Grant, T. J. McGrath.
Seventh Ward C. N. Inskeep, Louis Peterson, J. C. Thompson.
Eighth Ward U. D. Dulong, J. D. Moore, C. G. Durnett.
Ninth Ward M. S. Lindsay, W. I. Kierstead, D. J. Burgess.
South Omaha D. Anderson, E. O. Mayfield, I. C. Gibson.
Valley Precinct W. H. Thomas, M. Mitchell.
West Omaha George W. Roberts, Henry Rieck.
Chicago C. H. Dinker, H. A. Noltz.
Union F. D. Hubbard, Chris Fedde.
Waterloo F. W. Corliss, H. B. Hunnngur.
Millard William Van Dorn, John Lemphe.
Jefferson H. C. Tindall, Pete Mangold.
Florence John Simpson, John Paul.
Elkhorn Isaac Noyes, G. R. Williams.
McArdle R. A. Berry, Elijah Allen.
Douglas Ed Rudder, H. Rossiek.
Two vacancies were discovered, T. R. Moore of the Eighth ward has moved away, and M. Saulding was elected to succeed him. In the Ninth G. S. Benaway was selected to take the place of D. L. Burgess. Joe Redman, Herb Leavitt, C. A. Johnson, John Simpson and Mr. McArdle secured seats and a voice in the meeting on proxies for members who could not attend.
As soon as Mr. Gurley called the assembly to order it plunged into a hot discussion over a motion made by Mr. Lytle to exclude all spectators from the room. This was finally declared out of order by the chair because of its previousness, no secretary having yet been chosen. Somebody nominated E. O. Mayfield of South Omaha for that place, and he was unanimously elected.
Then followed a motion to go into executive session, and it was carried. Reporters, candidates and everybody else not entitled by membership authority to remain were hustled out.
This action, however, had no special significance. The object of the meeting was to determine upon and announce dates for holding the primary election at which delegates to a county convention will be elected, who, in turn, are to select sixty-nine delegates to the state convention. Still, a point was raised which to some extent showed the drift of gubernatorial sentiment in Douglas county. It was embodied in a motion that the designation of polling places, as well as the naming of judges and clerks for the primary election, be left to the executive committee of the central committee. This stirred up quite a lively discussion, but the motion went through by a vote of nineteen to nine.
It was decided to hold the primaries July 11, from 8 to 10 o'clock in the city, and from 7 to 9 o'clock in the country precincts; and to hold the convention July 16, at 2 o'clock. The committee then adjourned to meet again next Saturday and hear a report from the executive committee.
WASHINGTON IS MISTAKE. *
Mr. Baker Holds that the Title to the Ponnielo Lots in the Government.
United States Attorney Baker is very indignant at the charge made by the authorities in Washington, as appeared in the correspondence of The Bick, that it was due to his idleness that the matter of proceeding with the work on the new government building has been delayed.
"I have done," said Mr. Baker yesterday morning, "all I could do in the matter except to take a hammer and go out and pull down the old rookeries that encumber the lots, and it is too infernally hot to do that. I received the money from Washington one Sunday morning and before 10 o'clock Monday morning I had paid it into the hands of the court. As far as the title is concerned, it is now, without question, vested in the United States and the delay is occasioned by the departments alone. All that was necessary for the title to become vested in the United States was the money to be paid into the court and the titles approved, and this has been done.
Judge Dundy was also seen in regard to the matter. He declared that at this time the district attorney had as much to do with the matter as any other ordinary citizen and no more.
He took the same position as Mr. Baker had taken in regard to the title to the property, asserting that it became invested in the United States as soon as the money had been paid into the court. It was not necessary that this money be paid to these people before the title of the government became clear.
About $3,000 yet remains in the judge's hands to be disbursed. Of this amount about $1,500 belongs to Benjamin F., Alice S. and Nellie R. Folsom and Mary Augusta Martin, minors, now residing in New York, and to represent whose interests no guardian has yet appeared. Two foreign mortgage companies own the bulk of the remainder.
Judge Dundy says that the delay is attributable solely to the departments at Washington. The most sensible reason, he adds, that he has heard given is the one advanced that it might be well to wait before commencing the plans until congress disposes of the pending bill to increase the limit of cost.
Second Ward Republicans.
The Second ward republican club held a meeting at Espanar's hall last night. Barely a quorum was present, owing to the threatening storm. President O'Donovan occupied the chair and D. D. O'Connell acted as secretary. The minutes of the last previous meeting were read, showing that the only business was the allowing of a few bills. Dan O'Keefe rose to remark that he was for Mercer first, last and all the time, but that the party who thought he had Dan O'Keefe in his book had a big load. He further indicated that money had changed hands to fix the ward.
George Hameel took the floor next and proceeded to roast Frank Espanar and Hascid and all other supposed candidates for aldermanic honors, intimating at the same time that he was the man of destiny.
There was a great deal of raising to points of order and questions of privilege with very little result.
The meeting finally adjourned without taking any action, though the drift of the talk showed that the members present considered that there was a political combination against the Second ward, which should be met, and that everybody favored Mercer or anyone else in preference to Broatch for governor.
A large real estate deal which has taken place this season has been recorded. It will involve perhaps about sixty-five lots in Albright, which have been purchased by E. S. Rood. The value of the lots, the deeds to which have been recorded, is placed at $65,000.
It was learned from reliable authority that these lots were purchased by Mr. Rood with a view to disposing of them to the Rock Island railroad for a roundhouse and side trackage. The company has already secured the right of way through South Omaha and all the way to Lincoln.
Probably Incarcerated.
Mrs. Martin Dotrick is at the central station, supposed to be incarcerated. Her residence is at Twenty-fourth street and the Union Pacific tracks. She claims that her husband, who is employed in the steel mills, frequently knocks her down and then uses her head for a football. When arrested by Officer Rowden yesterday afternoon Mrs. Dotrick was riding up and down the Twenty-fourth street motor line. She had given the conductor $1 with the request that she be allowed to take twenty trips.
TOO MUCH WATER,
Haln interrupted with the Meetings of Milkmen and Anti-Prohibitionists.
Even the milkmen found too much water last night, and as a result the meeting which was to have been held at Wolff's hall went by default.
President Littlefield was in attendance and took occasion to remark that the ordinance now before the council for its consideration is illegal. Said he: "It provides a tax of $1 to be levied against each cow. This would turn the sum of $10,000 into the city treasury, and as this sum, which is in the nature of a license, exceeds the regular tax, I think it cannot be collected.
"Aside from this it is unjust for there is the Waterloo creamery, with 1,000 cows, and if the city asked that outfit to pay a license of $1,000 each year it would force the institution out of business. We want to have the grade of milk raised, but we want it to come about by fair means and not by opposition." The milkmen will try again and hold a meeting next Saturday night.
Rain prevented the Swedish anti-prohibitionists from holding the meeting booked for last night. E. M. Hjenberg, the president of the club, was promptly on hand, but as only a handful of the members assembled the meeting adjourned without fixing any date for the next meeting.
A Lincoln Office's Arrives With a Warrant For Her Arrest.
An officer from Lincoln arrived in the city last night, and safely tucked away in his pocket he had a warrant calling for the arrest of "Bab," or Mrs. Helen Anthony Rodgers, as the case may be. After searching the city a couple of hours he gave up the chase, convinced that the woman has left the city. The warrant charges that "Bab," or Helen Anthony Rodgers, defrauded a Lincoln landlord out of the sum of $11, which he is anxious to recover.
South Omaha's School Board Suing the City.
SOUTH OMAHA, Neb., June 17. To the Editor of The Dice: My attention was called this morning to an article in an Omaha morning paper headed "A Just Remonstrance," and the substance of said article was to the effect that the citizens of South Omaha were aggrieved at the refusal of Mr. Persons to sign orders for wages due the teachers. In answer to that part I will state that the orders were filled out and signed by Robert Funston. Where does he get his authority to attach his signature thereto as a member and secretary of the South Omaha school board? It is a question for the courts to decide who has the proper authority to act as a member and secretary of the school board, and until then I am powerless to countersign a school order or recognize either one of the contestants as secretary of the board. The above-headed article is continued as follows: "Mr. Persons bases his refusal upon the fact that Mr. Carroll is contesting the decision of Judge Shields giving Mr. Funston a seat, and he will not sign the orders until the matter is settled. There is not a fair-minded man in the city, rich or poor, but regrets that Mr. Carroll should have taken the steps that he has, and also that he is upheld by Mr. Persons."
In reply to this paragraph I will state candidly and truthfully that I do not, uphold either party in the contest, and that any and every citizen and taxpayer in this city, who is liberal-minded and possesses a fair quantity of intelligence realizes the exact position I am placed in as president of the South Omaha school board in the unfortunate suit between two parties. I was elected to fill my present position by the residents of this city, and for their interests, and their interests wholly, will I work, and not for any selfishness in this matter. In conclusion I will state that the city treasurer could not and would not cash the orders not properly and authentically signed. Respectfully yours, F. J. Persons.
Stationary Engineers' Picnic.
A basket picnic under the auspices of Omaha Association of Stationary Engineers will be held at Syndicate park, South Omaha, on the afternoon of July 2. Visitors will be present from Council Bluffs, Sioux City, Kansas City, Plattsmouth and several other towns. They will be met at the depot by the reception committee of the Omaha association and taken for a drive about the city. After a spread at the Barker hotel the entire party will start for the picnic grounds.

Anticipating his departure the employees of his store consigned to his care a solid silver tea set suitably engraved, which Mr. Mullen has been commissioned to present to his wife, with their kindest regards. The remembrance will undoubtedly be appreciated by the recipient.
HIGHWAY.
The team attached to one of William Fleming's delivery wagons indulged in a very spirited runaway yesterday afternoon. The wagon was a complete wreck when the horses were stopped at Twentieth and Izard streets.
Trinity cathedral, Capitol avenue and Eighteenth street. Very Rev. C. H. Gardner, dean. Holy communion at 8 a.m., morning prayer, Litany and sermon at 11 a.m., Sunday school at 1:15 p.m., children's service at 3:45 p.m., evening prayer and sermon 7:15 p.m. The dean will preach morning and evening.
It seems that instead of the A. O. H. band winning the first prize at Plattsmouth the award was made to the Union Pacific band. In the contest this band won 110 out of a possible 100 points. The Plattsmouth band was second and the A. O. H. band third. The money, $67, was divided into two prizes, $50 to the winner and $17 to the second best.
The funeral of Mike Leary, Jr., the four-year-old son of Mike Leary, who died at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, will be held from St. Philomenus' church at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
A. H. Stella is in the city jail, but he will return to Lincoln this morning. He wrote another bad check and succeeded in raising money.
CHARLES L. GROEBECKER has just returned from a tour through Germany and France, and is associated with his brother-in-law, A. B. Huberman. His trip was one of varied interest, comprehending a visit to all the pleasure resorts and places of renown. Despite the pleasure of the journey, Mr. Grobecker is happy to again be in Omaha.
Miss Cotter has returned from a highly pleasurable visit to Butte, Mont., where she was the guest of Mrs. Colonel Thornton. She also spent some time with her brother, T. H. Cotter, formerly of this city.
Mr. N. R. Maclcod and wife returned from Findlay, O., where they spent several weeks with her parents.
Judge Shields left yesterday for Cleveland, where he will remain until July 11th on a pleasure trip.
Mrs. A. S. Ackerman and son George leave today for the old home in Madison, N.Y., to spend the summer.
The bodies of forty-five deer were found piled up in a heap near Wornerville, Cul., a city. They lay at the bottom of a high bluff, from which they had apparently fallen during the time of the deep snow in Culifur-niu late in the winter.
The income of the university of Oxford for the present year is about £45,000. During the last year the university has increased its capital by nearly £60,000.
It is expected that the new chemical laboratory at the state university of Iowa, will be ready for occupancy not later than this latter part of the next collegiate year.
The exercises of commencement week at the Iowa state university passed off very pleasantly and successfully. Large audiences attended each of the events, and fortunately the weather occasioned no interference. The attendance of the alumni was unusually large.
The several departments of the Iowa state university have contributed to the list of the alumni as follows: Law department, 16; collegiate department, 71; medical department, 32; homopathic medical department, 10; dental department; pharmaceutical department, 1. Total, 130.
At a meeting of the board of trustees of the Young Men's Christian association at the Iowa state university, recently, announcement was made that Mrs. C. D. Close of Des Moines City would contribute $10,000 towards the new association building on condition that $50,000 more be raised.
The Sargent prize at Harvard college for the best metrical version of Horace, Ode III, has been awarded to Miss H. L. Reed of the Harvard annex. The judges were S. Longworth Thorndike, Gardner M. Lane and Dr. Morris H. Morgan. This is the first time that one of the young women of the annex had outdone the masculine collegians by gaining an honor. The prize was founded by John Osborn Sargent, of the class of 1885.
The well-known characteristics of Prof. Goodwin's Greek Moods and Tenses - his power of making practical inductions, his distinctness of thought and his masculine common sense are as conspicuous in the second edition as in its predecessor, says the London Academy. In addition, it shows an enlargement of scope, an enlargement of view and an appreciation of recent developments which the first book could not, from the nature of the case, display.
Francis P. Glee, president of the board of trustees of Johns Hopkins university, speaking recently of the movement for the admission of women to the medical department, said: "A mistake has been made as to the amount of the fund. The movers in the scheme have determined to raise $500,000. This was not to be done by subscriptions limited to $50 or over, as has been stated, but by gifts of any amount. The women now have several good colleges devoted to liberal education. The Johns Hopkins will outrank them all, and the women, perhaps, to effect an entrance into our school, so as to pursue still higher courses of study."
The University of Moscow recently celebrated its 80th anniversary. Its teaching force consists of eighty-eight regular professors and eighty-five private instructors; the number of students is 6,400. The minister of instruction has in recent years made several efforts to lessen the attendance at this and other Russian universities, particularly by keeping away the poor. In Russia, too, the professions are overcrowded. One of the latest orders is, that the sons of coachmen and washerwomen shall not be admitted to any of the higher grades of schools. Another order is, that only in a certain percentage of the total number of students can be Jews.
The recent change in the government of Harvard university is not very generally known or understood. The university is now under the control of a governing board, which consists of the higher members of the several faculties, of which each department of the university (the academic, the scientific, the medical, etc.) has one. Each of these faculties has a dean of its own, and consists of all the professors, assistant professors, instructors and tutors connected with its school or department. What was commonly known as the "faculty," which governed the students of the university in general, is now called the "governing board" and the faculty of the academic department is known as the "faculty of arts and sciences." President Eliot is, of course, at the head of the governing board.

There is a pear tree on Basil Mick's farm, southwest of Coshocton, that presents a novel appearance. In the spring it was covered with blossoms and at the present time it's pretty well loaded with small green pears, about the size of hickory nuts. About a week ago the tree put forth fresh blossoms and was the first of the week covered with field hands.
The curious "traveling stones" of Australia are paralleled in Nevada. They are of iodized, perfectly round, about as large as a walnut and of ivory in nature. When distributed about on the floor, table or any other level surface within two or three feet of each other, they immediately begin traveling toward each other until they huddle in a communal center, there huddled up in a bunch, like eggs in a nest. A single stone removed to a distance of four feet, upon being released, returns to the heap, but if left alone, it remains motionless. It is needless to say that they are largely composed of magnetic iron ore.

Among all these cities none can show
aa largo si porcunligo : of growth withii :
the last decade as Omaha , whoso popula
tion in 1880 was thirty thousand five
hundred and eighteen , which makes an
Increase during ten years of three hun
dred and forty-one per cent.
The big four of the now northwest ,
vi-/ : Minneapolis , Kansas City , St. Paul
and Omaha , have each shown marvelous
progress and made wonderful strides
within the last llvo years. Hut Omaha ,
although the smallest of the four cities
comes tirst in percentage of growth ,
with Minneapolis two hundred and
ninety-four per cent increase , as a good
second ; St. Paul two hundred and
thirty-two and Kansas City two hundred
and twenty-three per cent.
While ranking first us to percentage
of increase , Omaha's total gain in popu
lation in-ten yours exceeds that of St.
Louis , Boston , Cincinnati , Buffalo ,
Cleveland , Pittsburg and live other
cities which Imd a population of ono
hundred thousand or moro in 18.30. With
the exception of Boston , Omaha out
strips every city in New England in
population and has but two superiors in
the south , while in the trans-Missouri
country she is surpassed only by San
Francisco and Kansas City.
Omaha's commerce and industry bus
kept pace with her growth in popula
tion. In fsiet the per cent of incresiso in
the former confirms the correctness of
the count. The reasons for this growth
are the incomparable resources of the
surrounding country , in the infancy of
dovolopomont. In spite of all rivals , of
sharp competition and of injurious dis
criminations , the city has steadily forged
ahesul.
The record of the past ten years is a
proud ono. What the ensuing ton years
will develop depends on si'continuance of
the energy and activity which has built
up a great industrial anil commercial
center on a spot that was an Indian vil
lage thirty-six years ago.
STATK ( lllAJX INSI'KCTIOX.
Omaha is now si largo grain receiving
point smd her trade in this line could bo
enormously increased if the legislature
will enact a law to compel the inspec
tion of grain. What is wanted is the
appointment of a state grain inspector
and woighmtiHtor at Omaha to bo paid
by fees from handlers of grain at this
point.
Under the present system country
shippers , unable to obtiiin oliicial in
spection and weights at Omaha , labor
under a disadvantage in getting ad
vances on their shipments and HO avoid
this market in favor of Chicago , where
an ollicial board of weights and inspec
tion oxists. In shipping to Chicago
they are compelled to wait
for returns , which often causes
serious embarrassment. They would
naturally give preference to the Omaha
market if they could have Htato inspec
tion. Omaha Is undoubtedly destined to
become a great grain receiving point as
is evidenced by the growth of her busi
ness in this respect within the past two
years , and it is time that provision bo
made to handle this trade uroporly , and
encourage its growth.
The matter will bo presented to the
next legislature , and wo have no doubt
will receive favorable consideration.
I'HKl'AltlXH t'Oll
Tlio organization of tlio United States
commissioners of the Columbian exposi
tion is an announcement to the country
that the practical work of that most im
portant undertaking is to bo entered
upon at once. There has already boon a
jrent deal of valuable tlmo lost , and If
, ho enormous tusk is to bo successfully
carried out there must bo no moro delays.
The only obstacle now to the steady and
rapid progress of the work
s the question ot a site
for the exposition , but it is
trobablo this will bu speedily settled
since the national commissioners hnvo
udicatcd their preference among the
several available sites which have boon
inder consideration. Solllsh Interests
lave had a great deal to do with doluy-
ng the determination of this question ,
uid these may still bo found troublesome -
some , but they will hardly bo able to
eng withstand tjio intlucnco of men
vho , representing the entire country ,
can puss upon this question free from lo-
sil prejudice and selllsh concern. Un-
loubtedly , therefore , the preference
expressed by the national commission
vill prevail :
The election of ox-Senator Palmer of
Michigan as president of the exposition
vas a judicious choice. Ho is a man of
experience In practical and public af-
tilrs , is fully capable of performing the
irduous duties that will devolve upon
din , and is in a position to devote to
hem all the tlmo and attention that may
> o required. The secretary also has
[ ualltleutlons which peculiarly lit him
or the position. It is no simple
ind easy task that ia before these olll-
sluls , but there will bo great honor in Its
ucccssful accomplishment. With ro-
jard to the general Interest in the on-
orprlso , there is ample evidence that it
s hearty and earnest. From all por-
Ions of the country there are express-
oils of the hope that it will bo the
grandest exhibition of the world's In
dustry , nrt , selentlnV nohlovcmont , tin ;
material progress In all directions , eve
hold , and there can bo no doubt that si
far as this country is concerned over ;
portion of it will do It
utmost to make the American oxhlbl
complete , Whatever ( liHappolntinon
was felt at the selection of Chicago I
dying out , If It has not already dlsnii
pen red , and Now York and Now Englani
will bo found as zealous in contributing
to the success of the exposition as tin
middle states and the west. The apprehension
hension that foreign countries would b <
indifferent to the fair , and that it wouli
attract few foreign visitors because la
csited in an interior city , is also fai
loss general than iinnicdiutol ;
after Chicago was chosen. It Is yioldlii )
to the moro reasonable view lha
foreigners who will avail themselves c
such an exposition for displaying thoi
products are not likely to ignore tin
city which a majority of the ropresenta
lives of the American people , after care
ful deliberation , selected as the most do
slrablo place for holding it , while tin
fact that Chicago is reached througl
ono of the most prosperous portions o
the country , and is Itself a phonom
onnl example of . Amorlcan enter
prise and progress , should hi
a very strong inducement to Ku
ropenns to visit that city. As was sail
by a member of the national commission
the foreigner who traverses the littli
stretch between the coast and Chicago
covering the space In luxury and com
fort in twenty-four hours , will roturi
homo to destroy the books of travel
written by his preceding countrymoi
and to edit a fresh and truer history o ;
his journey in America.
But whether foreign governments ant ]
people take greater or loss interest ir
the Columbian'exposition than Is hoped
for the pcoplo of the United State ;
must spare no effort to make it
most completely and comprehen
sively representative of everything
American. In order that this may he
done it is necessary that every state
Shall consider as early us possible the
question of ways and moans. Doubtless
It is intended to make as nearly as prac
ticable an cquitsiblo allotment among
the states of space and facilities , accord
ing to the relative proportions ol
their products , but in this sis in all
other affairs , those who show the great
est zonl and interest sire likely to be
the most favored.
TIIK ADMISSION OF U'l'OJllXO.
Two now states will enter the union
before the eloso of the year , making the
number of states forty-four. The pass
age by the senate of the bill for the ad
mission of Wyoming will probably soon
Ijo followed by like action on the hill to
admit Idaho , though si somewhat vigor
ous light on the latter , by reason of its
constitutionsil provision relating to the
Mormons , is to bo expected. The demo
crats in the semite will make sin
issue on this with a view to po
litical capital , but while they
may delay they cannot de
feat Idaho's admission. Tlio fact that
the supreme court of the United Stsites
1ms declared , in si decision exceptionally
strong in its terms , that the provision in
the Idaho constitution is not repugnant
to the constitution of the United States ,
is sufficient to justify the republicans of
the senate in passing the bill for the sid-
misslon of Idaho , smd this they will un
doubtedly do as soon us the opposition
has been given tin opportunity to put
itself on record.
In the case of Wyoming nothing re
mains to bo done but for tlio president
to approve the bill and proclaim the
state a member of the union , and this
will 1)0 ) done without unnecessary delay ,
BO that Wyoming can have both a voice
and a vote in the present congress. It is
not doubted that her admission will in
crease the republican majority in both
branches. But this is a much loss im
portant consideration than the effect
which the condition of statehood may
resisomibly bo expected to have
in promoting the material pros
perity of Wyoming. That she
Ims great possibilities no ono who
lisis liny knowledge of her largo mineral
resources can doubt , and there is every
reason to expect that with the powers
and privileges of statehood the enter
prising pcoplo of Wyoming will lose no
.imo in putting into operation the means
noccssavy to the rapid development of
these resources. No ono of the now
stsiles was bettor equipped for entrance
.nto the union than Wyoming , except in
; ho matter of population , THit her more
than ono hundred thousand people are
representative of the best typo of Amer
ican citizens , and there need bo no ap
prehension that they will /nil to
. reditabty sustain a stsito government.
Plio action of the senate was received
throughout Wyoming with great enthu
siasm , and the people of the prospective
Htate may bo assured of the hearty con
gratulations of the pcoplo of tlio country.
Assuming the early admission of Idaho
.horo will thmi remain but three terri-
: qrlos Utah , New Mexico and Arixona.
It is not probable that either ot these
will bo admitted into the union by the
present congress.

Tun unanimous decision of the Noi
York courtjjjjipponli annulling the coi
porn to existence of the sugar trust 1
that state , nnd placing Its affairs in th
hands of a/y iver , strikes a stunnln
blow at ono of the greatest combine
ever organized in the country. The nt
tlon was based on the application of th
attorney gonornl of tlio state for an ordc
revoking the charter of the North rlvu
mignr refining company for havin
joined the triijt. The laws of the slat
prohibit fpifrtnershlps of soparat
and indunuijdcnt corporations. Th
trust bought to evade the hu
by various nimsy oxpodlonts , but tin
proof was overwhelming and the ordo
was granted by the lower courts and con
firmed by the court of last resort
In reciting the history of the trust th
court vigorously assails the dcllanco o
law shown by the organization. "If cot
porations , " pays the court , "can combltv
and mass their forces in a solid trust
with llttlo added risk to capital alrcad ;
in , without lluilt to magnitude , a tempt
ing and easy road Is opened to cnorinou
combinations vastly exceeding in num
her nnd strength any possibilities o
individual ownership. The stati
seeks to protect individuals rather thai
combinations. " The judgment of tin
court practically moans tlio corporati
death of the combine. Not only has i
directly robbed the public by inflating
the price of the product , but it ha :
fleeced scores of victims who wore in
duced to invest in trust certificate
under false pretenses. Doubtless at
temps will bo made to revive its existence
once under the favorable laws of Connecticut
ticut or Now Jersey , but the fact tlm
its property is in moro than ono state
brings it under the ban of the fedora
law , and insures its final collapse.
THK statement that the Wcstphaliai
pork packers o'f Germany want the re
strictions upon the importation of Ameri
can pork revoked- that their desire ia
endorsed by the chambers of commerce
of the two most important pork markets-
in Germany , and that they had beoi
told it was not improbable that the law
would bo repealed , is reassuring intelli
gence for the hog growers of America.
'
The explanation of'this sictiou of the
Gorman pork packers is that they have
not found any advantage from the lu\ :
prohibiting the importation of Ameri
can pork , but this is hurdlj
satisfactory except on the infer
ence thsit the hog raisers of Germany
have reaped 'all the benollt of high
prices tinder the protection , which is
very likely tiio'icasu. The government
will hardly ignore such a demand , sup
ported sis it-will bo by si strong public
.sentiment , and it is therefore highly
probable that sit no very remote date the
German markets will again bo opuned to
the admission bf American pork. It
would then b4o gasior to secure a removal
or modification of the Frcnoh restric
tions.
THE refusal .pf the house conferees
to allow the increase of salary voted to
Commissioner GrolT by the senate can
not bo justified.on . the score of economy ,
smd in the absence of any information sis
to the reason for it , it must bo assumed
that the cause of refusal wsis the tcchni-
csil question whether u salary that is
fixed bv statute can properly bo in
creased in an appropriation bill. This
question wsis raised in the senate and
very fully discussed , with the result that
a majority of the sonsito did not
find it nn obstacle to increasing
the salary of the hind com
missioner. A careful reading of the str-
gumonts must convince any fair-minded
person that the technicality has no
force. Commissioner Grotl' is acknowl
edged by leading democrats in congress
to bo ono of the ablest and most oflictont
commissioners who 1ms over adminis
tered the affairs of the land ollico , and
tlio justice of the proposed increase of
salary has never boon questioned. This
being the csiso the senate should firmly
adhere to its action , and the promise is
that it will do so.
THE federation of railroad operatives
is becoming a great power in the west.
Despite the efforts of the slow going
esist to prevent.tho amalgamation of the
railway organizations , the movement
has gained such strength in the trans-
Missouri country that its success is as
sured. A conference wiw hold in Den
ver last wool ; , at which measures were
taken to federate till orgaui/.alion of
railroad employes. The conductors ,
who have held aloof from kindred
organizations heretofore , were rep
resented and alho the Railroad
Telegraphers' association. Tlio result
of the conference is not definitely known ,
but there is little doubt that sill ob
stacles to a perfect union of the en
gineers , firemen , conductors , hrakemcn ,
switchmen and Knights of Labor were
removed. The advantages of federa
tion tire incalculable. To the members
it affords reasonable security from un
just discharge or manipulation of wages ,
and will by example exert a mighty in-
lluencu for the betterment of workingmen -

George W. Plcasants tells in the supreme

but the following year lioyd sold the prop

Mr. I'leasants says that ho has been living
upon the lot almost from the dulo of the pur
chase , has paid taxes upon the same and Im
proved it until it is now very valuable prop
erty. Ho was astounded recently to llnd
that persons to whom Itlodgett had sold the
lots laid claim to the property , and Plcasants
asijs that the courts silence any claims that
sut-h Individuals may present. Blodgett had

the county and state.
OMAHA'S HAND OVER MONO CHURCHES.
Ten years ago Omaha ranked as sixty-fourth among American cities based on the national census. Unofficial census estimates
of the population of loading cities of the United States furnish a reliable basis for comparison of the relative growth and rank. Among the twenty-five cities of largest population, Omaha will for the next ten years rank as twenty-third. Those cities will, in their estimated population, take rank in the following order:
1. New York 1,051,477
2. Chicago 1,100,313
3. Philadelphia 1,620,350
4. Boston 416,787
5. Cincinnati 301,556
6. San Francisco 306,020
7. Pittsburgh 324,906
8. Baltimore 343,782
9. St. Louis 424,670
10. Cleveland 213,909
11. New Orleans 297,321
12. Washington 230,168
13. Detroit 513,622
14. Milwaukee 533,826
15. Louisville 297,971
16. Minneapolis 227,959
17. St. Paul 202,723
18. Kansas City 170,005
19. Newark, N. J. 220,912
20. Providence, R. I. 168,211
21. Indianapolis 123,554
Among all these cities none can show
a larger percentage of growth within
the last decade as Omaha, whose population in 1880 was thirty thousand five
hundred and eighteen, which makes an
increase during ten years of three hundred and forty-one percent.
The big four of the new northwest,
viz.: Minneapolis, Kansas City, St. Paul
and Omaha, have each shown marvelous
progress and made wonderful strides
within the last four years. But Omaha,
although the smallest of the four cities,
comes first in percentage of growth,
with Minneapolis two hundred and
ninety-four percent increase, as a good
second; St. Paul two hundred and
thirty-two and Kansas City two hundred
and twenty-three percent.
While ranking first in percentage
of increase, Omaha's total gain in
population in ten years exceeds that of St.
Louis, Boston, Cincinnati, Buffalo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and five other cities which had a population of one hundred thousand or more in 1830. With the exception of Boston, Omaha outstrips every city in New England in population and has but two superiors in the south, while in the trans-Missouri country she is surpassed only by San Francisco and Kansas City. Omaha's commerce and industry has kept pace with her growth in population. In fact, the percent increase in the former confirms the correctness of the count. The reasons for this growth are the incomparable resources of the surrounding country, in the infancy of development. In spite of all rivals, of sharp competition and of injurious discriminations, the city has steadily forged ahead.
The record of the past ten years is a proud one. What the ensuing ten years will develop depends on the continuance of the energy and activity which has built up a great industrial and commercial center on a spot that was an Indian village thirty-six years ago.
STATE INSPECTION.
Omaha is now a large grain receiving point and her trade in this line could be enormously increased if the legislature will enact a law to compel the inspection of grain. What is wanted is the appointment of a state grain inspector and weighmaster at Omaha to be paid by fees from handlers of grain at this point.
Under the present system, country shippers, unable to obtain official inspection and weights at Omaha, labor under a disadvantage in getting advances on their shipments and so avoid this market in favor of Chicago, where an official board of weights and inspection exists. In shipping to Chicago, they are compelled to wait for returns, which often causes serious embarrassment. They would naturally give preference to the Omaha market if they could have state inspection. Omaha is undoubtedly destined to become a great grain receiving point as is evidenced by the growth of her business in this respect within the past two years, and it is time that provisions be made to handle this trade properly, and encourage its growth.
The matter will be presented to the next legislature, and we have no doubt will receive favorable consideration.
PREPARATIONS GO ON
The organization of the United States commissioners of the Columbian exposition is an announcement to the country that the practical work of that most important undertaking is to be entered upon at once. There has already been a great deal of valuable time lost, and if this enormous task is to be successfully carried out there must be no more delays.
The only obstacle now to the steady and rapid progress of the work is the question of a site for the exposition, but it is probable this will be speedily settled since the national commissioners have indicated their preference among the several available sites which have been under consideration. Solid interests have had a great deal to do with determining the question of a site, and these may still be found troublesome, but they will hardly be able to withstand the influence of men who, representing the entire country, can pass upon this question free from local prejudice and selfish concern. Undoubtedly, therefore, the preference expressed by the national commission will prevail.
The election of ex-Senator Palmer of Michigan as president of the exposition was a judicious choice. He is a man of experience in practical and public affairs, is fully capable of performing the arduous duties that will devolve upon him, and is in a position to devote to them all the time and attention that may be required. The secretary also has qualifications which peculiarly fit him for the position. It is no simple and easy task that is before these officials, but there will be great honor in its successful accomplishment. With regard to the general interest in the exposition, there is ample evidence that it is hearty and earnest. From all parts of the country there are expressions of the hope that it will be the grandest exhibition of the world's industry, art, science, noblemen, and material progress in all directions, and there can be no doubt that as far as this country is concerned, a portion of it will do its utmost to make the American exhibition complete.
Whatever apprehension was felt at the selection of Chicago as the dying out, if it has not already disappeared, and New York and New England will be found as zealous in contributing to the success of the exposition as the middle states and the west. The apprehension that foreign countries would be indifferent to the fair, and that it would attract few foreign visitors because it is located in an interior city, is also fast losing ground; after Chicago was chosen. It is yielding to the more reasonable view that foreigners who will avail themselves of such an exposition for displaying their products are not likely to ignore the city which a majority of the representatives of the American people, after careful deliberation, selected as the most desirable place for holding it, while the fact that Chicago is reached through one of the most prosperous portions of the country, and is itself a phenomenal example of American enterprise and progress, should be a very strong inducement to Europeans to visit that city. As was said by a member of the national commission, the foreigner who traverses the little stretch between the coast and Chicago, covering the space in luxury and comfort in twenty-four hours, will return home to destroy the books of travel written by his preceding countrymen and to edit a fresh and truer history of his journey in America.
But whether foreign governments and people take greater or less interest in the Columbian exposition than is hoped for, the people of the United States must spare no effort to make it the most completely and comprehensively representative of everything American. In order that this may be done it is necessary that every state shall consider as early as possible the question of ways and means. Doubtless it is intended to make as nearly as possible an equitable allotment among the states of space and facilities, according to the relative proportions of their products, but in this, as in all other affairs, those who show the greatest zeal and interest are likely to be the most favored.
THE ADMISSION OF WYOMING AND IDAHO.
Two new states will enter the union before the close of the year, making the number of states forty-four. The passage by the senate of the bill for the admission of Wyoming will probably soon be followed by like action on the hill to admit Idaho, though a somewhat vigorous fight on the latter, by reason of its constitutional provision relating to the Mormons, is to be expected. The democrats in the senate will make an issue on this with a view to political capital, but while they may delay they cannot defeat Idaho's admission. The fact that the supreme court of the United States has declared, in a decision exceptionally strong in its terms, that the provision in the Idaho constitution is not repugnant to the constitution of the United States, is sufficient to justify the republicans of the senate in passing the bill for the admission of Idaho, and this they will undoubtedly do as soon as the opposition has been given the opportunity to put itself on record.
In the case of Wyoming, nothing remains to be done but for the president to approve the bill and proclaim the state a member of the union, and this will be done without unnecessary delay, so that Wyoming can have both a voice and a vote in the present congress. It is not doubted that her admission will increase the republican majority in both branches. But this is a much less important consideration than the effect which the condition of statehood may reasonably be expected to have in promoting the material prosperity of Wyoming. That she has great possibilities no one who has any knowledge of her large mineral resources can doubt, and there is every reason to expect that with the powers and privileges of statehood the enterprising people of Wyoming will lose no time in putting into operation the means necessary to the rapid development of these resources. No one of the new states was better equipped for entrance into the union than Wyoming, except in the matter of population. That her more than one hundred thousand people are representative of the best type of American citizens, and there need be no apprehension that they will incompetently sustain a state government. The plaudits of the senate were received throughout Wyoming with great enthusiasm, and the people of the prospective state may be assured of the hearty congratulations of the people of the country. Assuming the early admission of Idaho there will then remain but three territories, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona. It is not probable that either of these will be admitted into the union by the present congress.
A New School House,
Among the buildings destroyed at Brudshaw by the cyclone was the district school house. This cannot be rebuilt by the school district because it is already bonded to the full legal limit. It will take at least three thousand dollars to build a school house large enough to accommodate the children of Brudshaw, and unless this amount can be raised by contributions Brudshaw will be deprived of all school facilities for the coming year. To meet this emergency County Superintendent Franklin of York makes the following appeal, which should be generously responded to by teachers and friends of education generally:
We hereby solicit donations, of school districts, officers, patrons, teachers, and all others interested in the welfare and prosperity of Brudshaw, for the purpose of rebuilding their school house which was destroyed by the cyclone June a. All donations will be receipted, the amount and name of the donor published in this column, and then turned over to the officers of Brudshaw school district to be used exclusively for building purposes.

County Superintendent.

The unanimous decision of the New York courts annulling the corporate existence of the sugar trust, that state, and placing its affairs in the hands of a receiver, strikes a stunning blow at one of the greatest combines ever organized in the country. The action was based on the application of the attorney general of the state for an order revoking the charter of the North River Sugar Refining Company for having joined the trust. The laws of the state prohibit partnerships of separate and independent corporations. The trust bought to evade the law by various nimsy expedients, but the proof was overwhelming and the order was granted by the lower courts and confirmed by the court of last resort. In reciting the history of the trust the court vigorously assails the delinquent observance of law shown by the organization. "If corporations," pays the court, "can combine and mass their forces in a solid trust with little added risk to capital already in hand, without being to magnitude, a tempting and easy road is opened to cherfully combinations vastly exceeding in number and strength any possibilities of individual ownership. The state seeks to protect individuals rather than combinations." The judgment of the court practically means the corporate death of the combine. Not only has it directly robbed the public by inflating the price of the product, but it has fleeced scores of victims who were induced to invest in trust certificates under false pretenses. Doubtless attempts will be made to revive its existence once under the favorable laws of Connecticut or New Jersey, but the fact that its property is in more than one state brings it under the ban of the federal law, and insures its final collapse.
The statement that the Westphalian pork packers of Germany want the restrictions upon the importation of American pork revoked, that their desire is endorsed by the chambers of commerce of the two most important pork markets in Germany, and that they had been told it was not improbable that the law would be repealed, is reassuring information for the hog growers of America.
The explanation of this situation of the German pork packers is that they have not found any advantage from the law prohibiting the importation of American pork, but this is hardly satisfactory except on the inference that the hog raisers of Germany have reaped all the benefit of high prices under the protection, which is very likely the case. The government will hardly ignore such a demand, supported as it will be by strong public sentiment, and it is therefore highly probable that at no very remote date the German markets will again be open to the admission of American pork. It would then be good policy to secure a removal or modification of the French restrictions.
The refusal of the house conferees to allow the increase of salary voted to Commissioner Grott by the senate cannot be justified on the score of economy, and in the absence of any information as to the reason for it, it must be assumed that the cause of refusal was the technical question whether a salary that is fixed by statute can properly be increased in an appropriation bill. This question was raised in the senate and very fully discussed, with the result that a majority of the senate did not find it an obstacle to increasing the salary of the land commissioner. A careful reading of the arguments must convince any fair-minded person that the technicality has no force. Commissioner Grott is acknowledged by leading democrats in congress to be one of the ablest and most efficient commissioners who has over administered the affairs of the land office, and the justice of the proposed increase of salary has never been questioned. This being the case the senate should firmly adhere to its action, and the promise is that it will do so.
The federation of railroad operatives is becoming a great power in the west. Despite the efforts of the slow-going association to prevent the amalgamation of the railroad organizations, the movement has gained such strength in the trans-Missouri country that its success is assured. A conference was held in Denver last week, at which measures were taken to federate all organizations of railroad employees. The conductors, who have held aloof from kindred organizations heretofore, were represented and also the Railroad Telegraphers' association. The result of the conference is not definitely known, but there is little doubt that all obstacles to a perfect union of the engineers, firemen, conductors, brakemen, switchmen and Knights of Labor were removed. The advantages of federation are incalculable. To the members it affords reasonable security from unjust discharge or manipulation of wages, and will by example exert a mighty influence for the betterment of workingmen in general.

In the Dust.
J'/ilfiK/rtpMu / / Inquirer,
There is something pathetic in Bismarck's expressed desire to be left alone and omitted from the lists in Paris. It is the dispensing submission of a proud spirit which admits defeat and is conscious of its inability to renew the struggle. The event commencing on Friday in London should be called "commencement," for it marks the beginning of the real great school of practical experience in a practical world.
The Men from Mining.

The Maine republicans are in splendid shape, and are wisely reassuring their congressmen. They are fortunate in being represented at Washington by men who command respect and are worthy to be kept in continuous service.
Not Much Wanted.
Mr. Cleveland wants to run again for president, therefore the party wants him re-elected; and the party wanting him re-elected, constitutes party opinion, party caucus, party conventions, party platform, nay, even the party itself, still within the circumference of one capacious waistband.
Even the Widows Have K.
Charm A'ciM.
The rage for titled husbands is not confined to the maidens of America. Even our widows have yearnings. One, the dashing relict of the late "Cherry" Barton Ayer, is about to bestow herself upon a Russian prince and receive in return the mano of Princess Dolgorukov! The prince's chief claim to distinction lies in the fact that he is the brother of the widow of the late emperor.
An Intellectual Southern Governor.
An early appeal for funds for Atlanta university in which appears the name of William Lloyd Garrison, the editor of the Atlanta Journal, writes:
"Now here is William Lloyd Garrison, with one foot in the grave, who was the father of abolitionism, and has spent his whole life in abuse of the south and her institutions, can not let this opportunity pass to hit Georgia where it hurts."
Some day the Atlanta editor of the Journal will be startled into an early grave by learning the sad intelligence of the death of Adam Prohibition's Intemperance.
All for the Cause Times.
The Intemperate element in Kansas has issued a call for another convention of prohibitionists, which shall take measures to convince congress and the supreme court that the latter is unacquainted with the law. They propose to "purify the original institution," to drive out "the curs of low degree" and to squelch the "supreme court saloon." "All friends of the cause will be welcome, whether accredited delegates or not." There is no spectacle so amusing as that while these practical fanatics afford when in convulsion. They defy law, yet they invoke it; They preach temperance and practice its opposite. They ridicule the courts, but maintain the forms of justice. When will it be the prohibitionists become temperate!
A Federal Legislation Bill.
New York Tribune.
The manly and patriotic way is to frame a measure which will secure an honest vote and an honest count in northern states, and make that the law for all states alike. If it cannot be enforced at the south, or cannot be enforced without a kind of interposition which the government deems inexpedient, that will be the misfortune of southern voters, but not the fault of congress. Whether southern states advance one by one in civilization that laws are respected and can be enforced, in these states also the people will recover their right of self-government.
No other measure proposed at the present session of congress is of greater or more far-reaching importance than this. The duty of congress to secure honest elections is one which republican representatives cannot afford to neglect, for the result in congressional districts in many northern states may depend upon their action.

Kearney Eagle.
There are a few people in this state who are extremely solicitous lest Attorney General Leese fail to retire from politics, but to date there has been no demand from the same sources that the railroads of Nebraska go out of politics, although they have been in considerably longer than Mr. Leese.
The Call for Harlan.
Yuma Times.
There is a very general feeling throughout this congressional district that Hon. N.V. Harlan ought to be a candidate for congress this fall. The very strong sentiment that men ought to be nominated who command the confidence of the people, and the provident impression that only such men can be elected, has awakened the republicans of this district to the fact that Mr. Harlan is one of the very few republicans in the state who can command the full party vote this fall.
Don't Hesitate the Means.
Every honest prohibitionist must hold in contempt a sneak and a spy, and though his dishonesty and double-dealing confidence men are plied ostensibly in the interest of the prohibition cause, but in reality for the cold clammy cash there is in it. An honest cause needs no dishonest measures to advance it, and a reform liar, sneak and confidence man is just as bad as the liar, sneak and confidence man who makes no pretense to piety and reform.

Fremont Flag.
"When the Flag advises farmers to hand by the old parties if they desire to work the reform they crave, it cannot be accused of partisanship. There is no paper in Nebraska that has greater contempt for the party whip than the Flag, and it defies the influence of the junta and the manipulations of those who would set up the pins to wrest the control of any party from the hands of the people. The producers of this country do not need a new party, for they may control either party, and the third party agitation is only by the old, windbroken hacks that have been kicked out of the old parties, and who use this means to again get into prominence. Let the farmers beware!"
Demand or the Voice.
From the beginning to the end of the century, the New York Voice, unable to bring about prohibition or even the semblance of it in its own state, is content that it can easily manage the campaign in Nebraska, and it has the cheek to demand that the forthcoming republican state convention declare unanimously in favor of constitutional national prohibition, and yet the adoption of such a resolution would insure the defeat of every candidate nominated at said convention, and yet would not hinder a living person to support the recommendation, as prohibition is not, and cannot be made a political question to the extent of binding any one conscientiously opposed to it. If the management be left to the Voice, the result would likely be about the same as it was in Pennsylvania and Rhode Island last year, where the people by a practically unanimous vote repudiated the hypocritical fraud.
The national convention to be held in St. Louis on May 11 to 12 is a missed opportunity to set a turn in the history of the prohibition movement.
Nob. Juno 2 [Special to The Herald.] Amid the numerous laws of Nebraska, is one which provides that every Fourth of July, two convicts who have served over ten years at the penitentiary shall be pardoned at the discretion of the board having this power. This board is known as the state board of pardons, and consists of the Governor, chief Justice of the supreme court, the attorney general, and the warden of the penitentiary. This board has been in conference for two days, and today selected the two fortunate men who will breathe free air again. These two are Walter Hardin of Goto county and John Countzo of Richland county. Hardin is forty-seven years old and Countzo is an old man of sixty-three. Both were sentenced to life imprisonment for murder.
Hardin has been in the penitentiary since 1876. The crime for which he was convicted was the murder of a man near the Colorado line for his horse and wagon. He was arrested shortly after the commission of the crime and at the time was in possession of his victim's effects. He confessed committing the terrible deed, but gave as his excuse that he was on the verge of starvation and was driven to the desperate deed there by. When sentenced, he was a young man of thirty, but his seventeen years incarceration have given him the appearance of a man of sixty.
John Countzo is a broken-down old man. Fourteen years ago he had a quarrel with his wife and he struck her a blow that left her lifeless. He was arrested, confessed his crime, and was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Both men have left a splendid record at the penitentiary, and the pardoning board believes that both are thoroughly repentant and are anxious to pass the few remaining years of their life as law-abiding citizens.
FROM THE LOT TO THE TWIST.
George W. Pleasants tells in the supreme court of a scheme which he claims was devised by one S. M. Boyd to get two prices out of one lot. The property in question is lot 1D, in block 5, of the city of Lincoln, and is today very valuable. Pleasants says that he bought the lot in 1876 from S. M. Boyd, but the following year Boyd sold the property again, this time to Harrison H. Blodgett. Mr. Pleasants says that he has been living upon the lot almost from the date of the purchase, has paid taxes upon the same and improved it until it is now very valuable property. He was astounded recently to find that persons to whom Blodgett had sold the lots laid claim to the property, and Pleasants asserts that the courts will silence any claims that such individuals may present. Blodgett had subdivided the lots and made a handsome thing by selling the fractional parts.
WILL HAVE TO PAY THE TAXES.
J. H. McMurtry and J. H. McClay have lost their suit against the county, in which they demanded to be relieved of paying city taxes for several years on the land in the driving park association tract. McMurtry and McClay claimed that when the city was incorporated about twenty years ago, the original proprietor of this tract objected to its becoming part of the city, Judge Fell of the district court held, however, that the property became part of the city whether the original proprietor wished it or not at the time of incorporation, he further decided that Mr. McMurtry and Mr. McClay would have to pay up the taxes they have been holding back all these years.
GOOD PROSPECT IN ELEGIAC.
The Second Presbyterian church sorrow has been granted permission to mortgage its property not to exceed $1,500 in order to complete the church building.
The directors of the Young Men's Christian association have also been granted permission to mortgage their property on the corner of Thirteenth and N streets. The limit is fixed at $5,000.
STOMINSKI OUTS LET.
Today Judge Corhran handed down his decision in the libel suit of Dr. Stominski vs. I.C.U., and Thomas Hyde, publishers of the Evening News. Of course, the opinion was one averse to Stominski, and he was as mad as a wet hen. He immediately swore out another warrant, this time for the arrest of Harry T. Dobbins, managing editor of the News, charging him with libel. The case will be heard next week, and Mr. Dobbins has offered any bonds that the court may impose.
CITY NEWS AND NOTES.
Thieves broke into William Cook's stable at Seventeenth and H streets last night and stole a saddle, bridle, and blanket.
A home belonging to Mr. Douglas, the grocer, at Twenty-first and J streets, ran away this morning and threw Mrs. Douglas violently to the ground, knocking her senseless. She was badly bruised by the fall, but her injuries are not thought to be serious.
Until yesterday the condition of Mrs. Thayer was very encouraging, but the extremely warm weather has caused a relapse and her condition is now very critical. This will be sad news to her wide circle of friends throughout the state.
David Haumgardner, of late clerk in Secretary of State Bowdrey's office, received a telegram from Washington today apprising him of the approval of his bond and the mailing of his commission as receiver at the McCool land office.
IN WRESTLING MATCH.
At the outset, Trend softly here; those sacred of tombs Are those that hold your pools, kings and queens Are false idols, accidents of Time and Chance. Chance sets them on the heights, they climb not there! But he who from the darkling mass of men Is on the wing of heavenly thought upborne To live another, and becomes a voice For all the voiceless, anointed him: His name shall be a star, his grave a shrine! Tread softly here, in silent reverence tread. Over those marble cenotaphs and urns Lies richer dust than over nature hid Packed in the mountain's adamantine heart, Or slowly wrapped in unsuspecting mind The dross men tell for, often statues the soul. How vain and all ignoble scorns that greed 'Tis him who stands in this dim cloistered air With those most sacred ashes at his feet! This dust was Chaucer, Spenser, Dryden This The spark that once illuminated lingers still. O'er-hallowed spot of English eloquence! If the unleashed and happy spirit of man Have opinion to revisit our dull globe, What august schemes at midnight here Convoke In the miraculous sessions of the moon, When the great pulse of London faintly throbs, And one by one the stars in heaven pale I'm stammering on HIGH MORNAY. The Cartel at Delight July 5 and 7.
Mr. S. S. Green, secretary of the Beatrice Chautauqua assembly, sends The Herald the following for publication: There will be a joint debate on the question of 'Prohibition vs. High License' at the Beatrice Chautauqua assembly, beginning at 10 a.m., July 6, and ending the afternoon of July 7. Samuel Dickie, chairman of the prohibition national committee, and Rev. Ham Small will defend prohibition. Hon. Edward Roswell, editor of The Herald, and Hon. John L. Scribner will argue for high license. The audience wants the fourteenth. Even the historic Sèvres porcelain manufacturing is threatened with being toppled; by an English syndicate, said to include the more important firms of England. Of late years the product of the Sèvres workshops, which always have been under the direct control of the French government, has been steadily running down in public esteem. The manufactory has received an annual subsidy of Homeopathic more than $100,000, but a commission has reported in favor of abolishing that. The annual sale of porcelain produced at Sèvres now scarcely exceeds $10,000.

An Infantile Immigrant.
Ragnhild Larson is the most infantile immigrant who ever came to this country without a natural protector. She is two years and one month old and landed at New York the other day. She came alone, all the way from Stockholm, Sweden. She is an orphan, and was sent for by her aunt, who lives in New Jersey. At Stockholm, she was placed in charge of the stewardess of a steamship bound for Hull, England. At Hull, the railroad conductor took charge of her and saw her safely on board a steamer at Liverpool. The steamer was the Britannic, the stewardess of which vessel looked after her until she reached New York, where her aunt received her.

ON THE ROAD UNDER A LOADED SLED.
/Surrounded / hy Indians in a Clump
! ' Willows Chased l > y Ked-
Hlcins and Gelling stuck
In the Marshes.
When John C. Cowln was n small boy ,
jirobably twelve or thirteen years old , ho had
nn experience that doubtless brought out
Home of his prematurely gray hair. At that
time , Mr. Cowin lived on n farm , went to
> school , carried firewood Into the liouso morn-
Jug and evening und on Saturdays assisted in
the work of hauling this sort of wood from
distant clearings to the house. It was during
one of these work days that ho narrowly es
caped being crushed to death. A recollection
of the event will never bo effaced from Mr.
Cowin's memory.
"Tlio ground was covered with snow , " said
bo in relating the story. "I was hauling cord-
wooden un old sled und sat driving the team
so that my feet rested against the cross-bar
or doubletree of the tonguo. Going down a
bill , ono orunnor of the sled struck a low
stump in such manner as to spread tlio sled
npart so that the tongue roller dropped out.
That caused mo to lose my foot brace
nnd I began to slip oil in front of
the sled. Wo were by this time going at u
rapid rule of speed. The horses took fright
nnd sturtsd for tlio tall timber. Ho\v to save
myself from being mangled beneath that
heavy load of wood was u mutter that hud to
be decided almost instantly. A thought oc
currcd to me thut if I could slide oft so as to
lie flat on tlio snow and let the sled pass over
ino 1 might escape. I did so mid got out of
the accident without being injured , but it
wus a hair-breadth escape. Six Inches ono
% -ny or the other , und It would have been all
flay with mo. "
But Mr. Cowin's experience was tame
when compared with that of Joe Teahon , city
passenger agent of the Wnbush road. There's
n man who.se life has hung by n thread half 11
dozen times. Billy Mitchell , the once no
torious guerilla , shot nt him and the bullet
plowed u furrow along the top of his head.
J'hut was in ISO'J , down near Jeffersonvillo ,
Teiin..When connected with the Chicago
lire department , Jo fell thirty feet from the
top of a burning building und lauded on a
pile of lumber. Ho was hid up for six weeks.
Bald be : "Tho blood spurted out of my ears ,
eyes , nose and mouth. I thought my bend
would burst into n thousand pieces and I
liitew nothing moro until tlio next day. But
talk about thrilling events , experiences that
make men turn gray. Out west is where you
get that sort of thing. The only tlmo I was
ivully very badly frightened fourteen Indian
warriors got after un old fellow by the iiainu
of Austin and myself up In tlio mountains.
Tills occurred on April 8 , 1870. not far from
South Pass , Wyo. Several of us wore out
them in the prospecting business. About ten
days previously , wo hail engaged In an en
counter with u squad oftlio red devils and
killed fpurUvn. Bhi'ck Bear , their chief wits
among tlio slain. On the 8th Austin and I
bad been off some distance from the camp
with his team and wagon. He was an old
timer in that country nnd know
nil nbout the Indians. Wo were
returning homo and hud gotten within throe
iiillan of the camp when 1 happened to look
buck and saw u band of warriors swooping
down upon us. I could feel my hair stand ou
end. At Austin's command wo Jumped out
of tlio wagon and unhitched thu horses. I
supposed wo would each mount and animal
nnd leave that country , but Austin turned
them loose and tiwav thev went toward camp.
What did you do tfwt forl' said I to Austin.
'Never mind cowui\l'ho 'but
, you \ , replied ,
get your gun und come with mo. ' By this
tlmo the Indians were quite near. Wo run
down n bill Into n willow swamp , bid our-
Bclvoa and uwulted developments. The In
dians cumo up to our wugon nnd took everything
thing- they could curry. Thuy theu uiadu a
circle around the willows. Austin to'ld me
not to shoot unlcs I was sure of
either bringing down nil Indian orlds horse.
Four or live times the bloodthirsty scoundrels
rode , yipplngand yelling , nrouiid'that cluster
of willows , each time coming closer. My
heart was in my mouth. I guarded one side
and Austin the other. Directly 1 hoard u
report I looked around and saw a great big
buck plunge head over heels olT his pony.
Austin had plugged him through the head.
The oilier Indians , greatly excited , picked
up their comrade nnd carried him out of
sight down the valley. Wo dared not move ,
however. In about two hours they returned
and renewed the attack. Then It came my
turn. I blazed away ut an uglv-looUing brute
on a white horse. My bullet caught the
horse ut the root of his tuil , und
you ought to have seen him
throw that Indian up into the
air. Again they rode nway to the top of
the hill utid held another pow-wow. Directly
wo baw them looking In the opposite direc
tion und become greatly agitated. Austin
said moro Indians were coining. You can
hot your bottom dollar 1 was frightened. But
they finally disappeared , and in u few min
utes the boys from camp rescued us. As soon
us Austin's team reached the camp they
knew .something hud happened and started
out to hunt us up. Thut was what I call a
thrilling adventure. "
Mr. Teahon , however , is not tlio only man
in Omaha who has been frightened within an
Inch of his lifo. D. W. VunCott can toll
quite an interesting story inyliich ho figures
as ono of the principal actors. Fourteen
years ago ho earned his daily bread as a
traveling salesman. During an intermission
between trips ho nnd two fellow drum
mers concluded to enjoy Held sports ,
aud accordingly wont over to
Hed Oak , In. , ou u quail hunt. Ono very fine
morning they wcro out about six or seven
miles north of town , when suddenly u flock of
birds arose from a blurt thicket near bv. Van
and his companions instantly had tholr guns
nt tbi'ir shoulder and were scattering shot all
over the surrounding country. Before stojt-
ping to ascertain the result of their efforts , no
less than eight or ten charges had been fired.
Imagine their surprise when thev noticed
three or four strapping big , war-painted , cojv
per-colorcd niflluns dash through the bush
and start toward them. Then thtro wius n
wild and exciting chase. The hunters leaped
into tholr buggy , laid hot whip to their team
und let it run. The Indians followed. Our
team plunged into a swamp
nnd stuck , " wild Van Cott. " "Wo
took to the woods , run ucross country and
finally reacced homo safely , though complete
ly winded. The Indians cupturodour rig and
got away with it. Wo turned the matter
over to the sheriff and hi about two weeks
afterward ho succeeded in recovering tlio
property. "
Mike Maul says on ono occasion he suddenly
grow sK Inches after ho had attained his
natural height , kept thus elongated about
live minuted. Charley Goodrieh's black ,
woolly dog was the cuuso of the enlargement.
One 'Saturday afternoon when Mike was
coroner live men were crushed to death In u
sandbank , u htiort distance down thu river ,
below Boyd's packing liouso.
Ho brought tholr bodies to town nnd laid
them in n row in the rear room of his under
taking establishment , rustled hard until
about 11 o'clock that night completing ur-
rangements to bury tliom next day.
The we.ither was very hot. At a late hour
he started up stairs , feeling very tired. Ho
had to pass through the dark room where ulll
the dead men lay. "When I got In there , "
ho said. " 1 could hear something breathing
long and loud. Nnturally.tho thought struck
mo that ono of the dead men had como to llt'o.
I could feel my bat go right up Into
the air. It frightened mo so greatly that I
was apparently un ugo finding 11 match.
When 1 did discover one I struck u light and
commenced un investigation. What do you
suppose It was I There was Goodrieh's dog
laying under the bed led panting lilto a liz-
zard ! "
Mr. Maul had some lively adventures dur
ing his stay from IST'J ' to 1SS1 In Montana
with mountain lions ana black boars. Ho
tells some breezy stories about bitting ou
tree limb.s all night with one or more of these
ferocious beasts waiting nt the base for him
to como down and furnish them with u good
meal.

HOW HE CONQUERED THE INDIANS.
An Kxuitliig ICplHixlc on the. Hot ,
Dry Plains of Arizona A
IlcininlKC'OtU'e il' the Dead
Mnjor General.
Written 'furTlic lite.
Many of my younger readers may perhaps
bo surprised to have mo tell them of a genu
ine frontier hero who was neither a bully nor
a braggart , who never carried a revolver on
his hip , whisky flask in his pocket or tobacco
in Ills mouth. Although ho had fought every
tribe of hostile Indians from the dominions of
her Brittnuic majesty on the north to the
southern slopes of the rugged Sierra Madre
far down in the republic of Mexico , ho didn't
llnd it necessary to cut a niche in the butt of
his rlllo for every engagement ho hud seen or
every Indian ho had killed.
Ho didn't wear long hair and ho did not in
vest any of his money in buckskin clothed
With porcupine and bead decorations.
An oath or a foul word never crossed his-
lips , and yet today there is no name more
highly revered , more sincerely mourned all
over what was so tveontly our frontier than
that of this modest , unostentatious soldier
who thus persistently .set at dctlanco the
canons of the border drama and seemed to bo
inllucnced at all times to act the part of un
unassuming , Christina gentleman.
Hut then , the subject of my sketch , Major
General George Crook , of the United States
army , was no ordinary man. Ho was ono of
these rare examples which every bright , hon
est boy should exert himself to emulate.
A close association of fifteen years nnd
moro which gave mo tbnhonnrof being along
side of General Crook in all his campaigns
and battles , during that period taught mo to
understand him as perfectly as ono man can
understand another and that the lessons of
his life may not bo entirely lost.I wish to nar
rate u few incidents happening under my own
notice and which may bring to light the char
acteristics of the limn by describing some of
the countless dangers to which | Ho was ex
posed.
It would take many columns to make even
n conctso biographical sketch , and within the
short space of au article of this kind butlittlo
moro can bo attempted than a reference to
onu or two events , the knowledge of which
has , until ttio present day , been conllnod to u
very limited circle.
The territory of Arizona , some eighteen or
twenty years ago , was us close an approach
to the Infernal regions us could be found on
tint map. The surface of the earth Is there u
grand and mysterious upheaval of diseonnet-
tcd mountain ranges , separated by broad
spaces of desert land , baked to dust by the
rays of a torrid sun.
The vegetation , beasts and birds of the
de.scrt portions all are sub-tropical , while
these of the elevated ranges nro identical
with the iloru and fauna of moro temperate
climes.
The deserts can , In most cases , bo re
claimed by irrigation , nnd it Is certainly no
le.ss wonderful than entrancing to regard the
transformation wrought by man's genius and
labor in the oases llko Tucson , Florence and
IMupnlx , where Holds greener than the em
erald betray the budding shoots of barley , or
rippling waters , babbling In broad ditches ,
reflect the foliage of graceful cottonwoods.
The mountains-grim buttresses of gnmlti )
and sandstone or broad tublo lands , cupped
with block luvivnnd basalt are In numerous
places covered with dense plno forests on
their summits , while scrub oak aud Juniper
grow in Jungles on their Hanks.
In these ulHIMt inaccessible Sierras lived
the tierce Apaches , In the days of which I
wrlto wilder than their untamable brothel's ,
the yelping coyotes.
To the number of thousands these Indians
infested Arizona aud New Mexico as well us
the northern zone of our sister republic , mi d
grown bold and cunning in the .successful
warfare waged for generations , had attacked
and destroyed wagon trains , ranchos and
whole settlements of the incoming
tide of American civilization , driven off
herds of cattle and horses and made human
life insecure.
The farmers in the valleys tended their lit
tle patches of corn and barley with cocked
nnd loaded rllles strapped to the plow-han
dles.
dles.All travel was done by night , and by night
onlv. Tlio stages carrying the United States
mail often ventured on the highway during
the hours of sunshine , but , alas ! they didn't ,
always reach the "stations , " aud the position
of stage driver gradually assumed in the eyes
of the people the appearance of u covert at
tempt at.suicide.
It was In such n condition of affairs that
General U. S. Grant , then president , deter
mined , upon the petition of the settlers of
Arizona , that something must bo done and
done at once.
IIo picked out General Crook for the duty
of whipping the Apaches into submission and
the wisdom of his choice was sooit made man

Crook did whip the Apaches into submis
sion , that is , all excepting ono small bund
which ho was especially enjoined not to
touch , nnd ho did it in magnificent style.
But ho did moro than whip the savages.
After they hud surrendered unconditionally
ut ( Jump Verde , in 18711 , ho promised them
that ho would be their best * friend and teach
tliom'to live Just the sumo as white men.
They were established upon farms , encour
aged to raise crops of cereals as well as herds
of ponies , and for every pound of corn gath
ered , every buiiill" of hay cut or cord of wood
stacked up for delivery General Crook found
them a cash market In the adjacent military
posts.
This is more of a digression than I intended
to make. The story of how tins truculent
Apaches were tamed and taught to bo men is
ono of unflagging interest , but it must bo re
served for another timo.
It was in the campaign that resulted so
happily tnat 1 first met General Crook , and
as memory draws aaldo the curtains of the
past I recall , among others without number ,
the perils of ono bright summer afternoon
when wo were riding together at the head of
u column of the Third cavalry along the sum
mit of the lofty mountains known us the Mo-
gollon.
The doftcst of fairy fingers had woven the
rainlM > w-hued carpet of flowers which man
tled the ground for miles on nil sides of us.
The refreshing shadows of graceful pines
screened us from the rays of the evening sun ,
nnd over and anon tlio lugubrious caw-caw of
sublo crows broke upon tlio stillness.
To the left of the landscape and far to tlio
west , stretched the chaotio musses of hills ,
which formed what , in the irony of frontier
nomenclature , was termed "Tho Tonto
Husln , " which In truth Was a basin , so far as
the lofty position wo occupied was concerned ,
us we were not less than -two or tlnvo thou
sand feet above the waters of tlio east fork
of the Verde and of Tohto creek , but separ
ated from them by dizzy precipices and bat
tlements of crags , to surmount which would
hoom to defy tlio Illght of the hawk aud the
buz/urd.
The day's march was over ; our camping
ground for the night was only a few yards
ahead of us ; and wo wore indulging in ex
pressions of delight and wonder ut this
curious blending ol the picturesque nnd the
sublime General Crook , Tom Moore , Cap
tain Brent , Lieutenant Hess and -when
whiz I whizz I whlzzzl .whlzzzzl from front
and Hunk , swept the arrows of un Apache
umbuscado.
Wo were not by any means green In that
kind of business , ami In less tlmo than It
takes to tell the story hud tin-own ourselves
from our horse * and calling to the men what
was the mutter , wore advancing from plno
trees to plno trees upon the enemy.
Hut the Apaches hod only Intended tholr
attack to sluinpodo our horses , or to kill or
inntm a few of thouuimals or muu ut ttio head
of the column.
Kor such purposes , arrows or lances were
preferable to bullets , slnco they mudo no
noise to give to these in the rear of tlio col
umn attacked a duo to what was going ou in
front.
Our column hud a short tlmo before the
attack been ordered to close up , " prepara
tory to going Into camp ; for this reason , tlio
Apuehos In places of finding only the ad
vance-guard , were promptly confronted by
our whole force of live companies , all of old
and experienced soldier , who moved without
waiting for orders , to places behind trees a.id
rocks and began nn advance which the small
force of savages could not , of course , hope to
be able to resist. Finding that they had
stirred up a hornet's nest , the Apaches made
oil' through the woods , the wisest thing they
could do under the circumstances.
On our.side thcro were two or three "hits , "
none to amount to anything , and u couple of
mules Imi't.
The loss of the enemy , if any , was never
learned.
Thcro were two of the Apaches separated
from their companions who lay down on the
edi'o of the precipice apparently making ready
to sell their lives dearly. They wcro armed
with bow und lunco and ritlo , and would , so
wo thought , make good nso of them.
Our men closed in on all sides expecting to
hear u shot every moment. In this they were
greatly mistaken because the Indians , after
waiting until our proplo could sec their black ,
hcad-liko eyes shining with the fierce light of
hate , made a bold spring down the vertical
wall of the precipice , jumping from rock to
rock and from tree to tree with the agility of
mountain sheep.
They they wcro , with dishevelled black
hair streaming behim themdarting under the
cover of overhanging ledges , following a
course whicli threatened to dash them to cer
tain death every moment ; the rocky bluffs
re-echoed the crack of rllles nnd bullets which
whistled from every direction ; but fortune
favors the bravo , mm these two
reckless sons of Anak , thanks to
their perfect knowledge of the coun
try which was then un absolute blank to us ,
and to the setting of the sun which hid them
from our search , effected their escape nmlun-
Imrmed too , excepting the broken arm which
dandled helpless and bleeding bv the side of
the hindermost , struck by a bullet from the
rifle of our commandinir general.
Two of the arrows fired at General Crook
were imbedded so deeply In jnno trees that
they could not bo dug out ; one had penetrated
into tlio wood up to the feathers , the ethernet
not quite so deep.
The whole attacking party did not number
moro than u dozenaud trustedas the Apaches
always did , to daring and the lack of warn
ing on our side , to gain their object , or , fail
ing in that , to their Intimate acquaintance
with every foot of ground , to evade capture
or pursuit.
In their theory of war It was the constant
dripping of the fountain which was to wear
out thu rock : constant attack , trivial , per
haps , in many Individual cases , but kept up
without intermission , that wus to wear out
the white soldier.
No ono on our side know when attack waste
to como , no one knew when ho was safe. The
first piece of advice given to young officers
upon arrival iu Arizona used to bo : "When
you see signs of the Apaches , look out ; and
when you don't see signs , look out more than
evi'r. "
The history of our frontier Is well dc .orv-
Inir of study by our intelligent young people ,
and the history and character of the noble ,
bravo soldiers lllco General Crook , who ro-
deoiuod it from savagery und made it u glo
rious heritage for civilization , cannot lie too
attentively examined.

ON THE ROAD UNDER A LOADED SLED.
Surrounded by Indians in a Clump of Willows Chased by Red-Haired and Yellow-Haired, Stuck in the Marshes.
When John C. Cowin was a small boy, probably twelve or thirteen years old, he had an experience that doubtless brought out his prematurely gray hair. At that time, Mr. Cowin lived on a farm, went to school, carried firewood into the house morning and evening and on Saturdays assisted in the work of hauling this sort of wood from distant clearings to the house. It was during one of these work days that he narrowly escaped being crushed to death. A recollection of the event will never be effaced from Mr. Cowin's memory.
"The ground was covered with snow," said he in relating the story, "I was hauling cordwood on an old sled and sat driving the team so that my feet rested against the cross-bar or double tree of the tongue. Going down a hill, one runner of the sled struck a low stump in such manner as to spread the sled apart so that the tongue roller dropped out. That caused me to lose my foot brace and I began to slip off in front of the sled. We were by this time going at a rapid rate of speed. The horses took fright and started for the tall timber. How to save myself from being mangled beneath that heavy load of wood was a matter that had to be decided almost instantly. A thought occurred to me that if I could slide off so as to lie flat on the snow and let the sled pass over me I might escape. I did so and got out of the accident without being injured, but it was a hairbreadth escape. Six inches one way or the other, and it would have been all over with me."
But Mr. Cowin's experience was tame when compared with that of Joe Teahon, city passenger agent of the Union Pacific road. There's a man whose life has hung by a thread half a dozen times. Billy Mitchell, the once notorious guerrilla, shot at him and the bullet plowed a furrow along the top of his head. That was in 1863, down near Jeffersonville, Tenn. When connected with the Chicago fire department, Joe fell thirty feet from the top of a burning building and landed on a pile of lumber. He was laid up for six weeks.
He said: "The blood spurted out of my ears, eyes, nose, and mouth. I thought my head would burst into a thousand pieces and I saw nothing more until the next day. But talk about thrilling events, experiences that make men turn gray. Out west is where you get that sort of thing. The only time I was very badly frightened fourteen Indian warriors got after an old fellow by the name of Austin and myself up in the mountains. This occurred on April 8, 1870, not far from South Pass, Wyo. Several of us were out in the prospecting business. About ten days previously, we had engaged in an encounter with a squad of the red devils and killed their chief, Black Bear, among the slain. On the 8th Austin and I had been off some distance from the camp with his team and wagon. He was an old timer in that country and knew all about the Indians. We were returning home and had gotten within three miles of the camp when it happened to look back and saw a band of warriors swooping down upon us. I could feel my hair stand on end. At Austin's command we jumped out of the wagon and unhitched the horses. I supposed we would each mount an animal and leave that country, but Austin turned them loose and they went toward camp.
"What did you do that for?" I said to Austin.
"'Never mind,' he replied, 'you get your gun and come with me.' By this time the Indians were quite near. We ran down a hill into a willow swamp, hid ourselves and awaited developments. The Indians came up to our wagon and took everything they could carry. They then made a circle around the willows. Austin told me not to shoot unless I was sure of either bringing down an Indian or his horse."
Four or five times the bloodthirsty scoundrels rode, yelling and yipping, around that cluster of willows, each time coming closer. My heart was in my mouth. I guarded one side and Austin the other. Directly I heard a report, I looked around and saw a great big buck plunge head over heels off his pony. Austin had plugged him through the head. The other Indians, greatly excited, picked up their comrade and carried him out of sight down the valley. We dared not move, however. In about two hours they returned and renewed the attack. Then it came my turn. I blazed away at an ugly-looking brute on a white horse. My bullet caught the horse at the root of his tail, and you ought to have seen him throw that Indian up into the air. Again they rode away to the top of the hill and held another powwow. Directly we saw them looking in the opposite direction and became greatly agitated. Austin said more Indians were coming. You can bet your bottom dollar I was frightened. But they finally disappeared, and in a few minutes the boys from camp rescued us. As soon as Austin's team reached the camp they knew something had happened and started out to hunt us up. That was what I call a thrilling adventure.
Mr. Teahon, however, is not the only man in Omaha who has been frightened within an inch of his life. D.W. Van Cott can tell quite an interesting story in which he figures as one of the principal actors. Fourteen years ago he earned his daily bread as a traveling salesman. During an intermission between trips, he and two fellow drummers concluded to enjoy field sports, and accordingly went over to Omaha, Neb., on a quail hunt. One very fine morning they were out about six or seven miles north of town, when suddenly a flock of birds arose from a dense thicket near by. Van and his companions instantly had their guns at their shoulder and were scattering shot all over the surrounding country. Before stopping to ascertain the result of their efforts, no less than eight or ten charges had been fired. Imagine their surprise when they noticed three or four strapping big, war-painted, copper-colored Indians dash through the bush and start toward them. Then there was a wild and exciting chase. The hunters leaped into their buggy, laid a hot whip to their team and let it run. The Indians followed. Our team plunged into a swamp and stuck, "wallowing in mud," as Van Cott said. "We took to the woods, ran across country and finally reached home safely, though completely winded. The Indians captured our rig and got away with it. We turned the matter over to the sheriff and in about two weeks afterward he succeeded in recovering the property."
Mike Maul says on one occasion he suddenly grew 6 inches after he had attained his natural height, kept thus elongated about five minutes. Charley Goodrich's black, woolly dog was the cause of the enlargement. One Saturday afternoon when Mike was coroner, five men were crushed to death in a sandbank, a short distance down the river, below Boyd's packing house. He brought their bodies to town and laid them in a row in the rear room of his undertaking establishment, rustled hard until about 11 o'clock that night completing arrangements to bury them next day. The weather was very hot. At a late hour he started up stairs, feeling very tired. He had to pass through the dark room where all the dead men lay. "When I got in there," he said, "I could hear something breathing long and loud. Naturally, the thought struck me that one of the dead men had come to life. I could feel my hat go right up into the air. It frightened me so greatly that I was apparently unable to find a match. When I did discover one I struck a light and commenced an investigation. What do you suppose it was? There was Goodrich's dog lying under the bed panting like a lizard!"
Mr. Maul had some lively adventures during his stay from 1875 to 1881 in Montana with mountain lions and black bears. He tells some breezy stories about sitting on tree limbs all night with one or more of these ferocious beasts waiting at the base for him to come down and furnish them with a good meal.

NEVER FLINCHED UNDER FIRE in an Apache Ambush with General Crook.
HOW HE CONQUERED THE INDIANS.
An Exciting Episode on the Hot, Dry Plains of Arizona
The Heroic Deeds of the Dead Major General.
Written for The Life.
Many of my younger readers may perhaps be surprised to have me tell them of a genuine frontier hero who was neither a bully nor a braggart, who never carried a revolver on his hip, whisky flask in his pocket or tobacco in his mouth. Although he had fought every tribe of hostile Indians from the dominions of her British majesty on the north to the southern slopes of the rugged Sierra Madre far down in the republic of Mexico, he didn't find it necessary to cut a niche in the butt of his rifle for every engagement he had seen or every Indian he had killed.
He didn't wear long hair and he did not invest any of his money in buckskin, clothed with porcupine and bead decorations.
An oath or a foul word never crossed his lips, and yet today there is no name more highly revered, more sincerely mourned all over what was so recently our frontier than that of this modest, unostentatious soldier who thus persistently set at defiance the canons of the border drama and seemed to be influenced at all times to act the part of an unassuming, Christian gentleman.
But then, the subject of my sketch, Major General George Crook, of the United States army, was no ordinary man. He was one of these rare examples which every bright, honest boy should exert himself to emulate.
A close association of fifteen years and more which gave me the honor of being alongside of General Crook in all his campaigns and battles, during that period taught me to understand him as perfectly as one man can understand another and that the lessons of his life may not be entirely lost. I wish to narrate a few incidents happening under my own notice and which may bring to light the characteristics of the man by describing some of the countless dangers to which he was exposed.
It would take many columns to make even a concise biographical sketch, and within the short space of an article of this kind but little more can be attempted than a reference to one or two events, the knowledge of which has, until the present day, been confined to a very limited circle.
The territory of Arizona, some eighteen or twenty years ago, was as close an approach to the Infernal regions as could be found on the map. The surface of the earth is there a grand and mysterious upheaval of disconnected mountain ranges, separated by broad spaces of desert land, baked to dust by the rays of a torrid sun.
The vegetation, beasts and birds of the desert portions all are sub-tropical, while those of the elevated ranges are identical with the flora and fauna of more temperate climes.
The deserts can, in most cases, be reclaimed by irrigation, and it is certainly no less wonderful than entrancing to regard the transformation wrought by man's genius and labor in the cases like Tucson, Florence and Globe, where fields greener than the emerald betray the budding shoots of barley, or rippling waters, babbling in broad ditches, reflect the foliage of graceful cottonwoods.
The mountains-grim buttresses of granite and sandstone or broad table lands, cupped with blocks of lava and basalt are in numerous places covered with dense pine forests on their summits, while scrub oak and juniper grow in jungles on their banks.
In these almost inaccessible Sierras lived the fierce Apaches, in the days of which I write, wilder than their untamable brethren, the yelping coyotes.
To the number of thousands these Indians infested Arizona and New Mexico as well as the northern zone of our sister republic, made grown bold and cunning in the successful warfare waged for generations, had attacked and destroyed wagon trains, ranchos and whole settlements of the incoming tide of American civilization, driven off herds of cattle and horses and made human life insecure. The farmers in the valleys tended their little patches of corn and barley with cocked and loaded rifles strapped to the plow-handles. All travel was done by night, and by night only. The stages carrying the United States mail often ventured on the highway during the hours of sunshine, but, alas! they didn't, always reach the "stations," and the position of stage driver gradually assumed in the eyes of the people the appearance of a covert attempt at suicide. It was in such a condition of affairs that General U. S. Grant, then president, determined, upon the petition of the settlers of Arizona, that something must be done and done at once. He picked out General Crook for the duty of whipping the Apaches into submission and the wisdom of his choice was soon made manifest. Crook did whip the Apaches into submission, that is, all excepting one small band which he was especially enjoined not to touch, and he did it in magnificent style. But he did more than whip the savages. After they had surrendered unconditionally at Camp Verde, in 1871, he promised them that he would be their best friend and teach them to live just the same as white men. They were established upon farms, encouraged to raise crops of cereals as well as herds of ponies, and for every pound of corn gathered, every bale of hay cut or cord of wood stacked up for delivery General Crook found them a cash market in the adjacent military posts. This is more of a digression than I intended to make. The story of how these truculent Apaches were tamed and taught to be men is one of unflagging interest, but it must be reserved for another time. It was in the campaign that resulted so happily that I first met General Crook, and as memory draws aside the curtains of the past I recall, among others without number, the perils of one bright summer afternoon when we were riding together at the head of a column of the Third cavalry along the summit of the lofty mountains known as the Mogollon. The deftest of fairy fingers had woven the rainbow-washed carpet of flowers which mantled the ground for miles on all sides of us. The refreshing shadows of graceful pines screened us from the rays of the evening sun, and over and over the lugubrious caw-caw of solitary crows broke upon the stillness. To the left of the landscape and far to the west, stretched the chaotic masses of hills, which formed what, in the irony of frontier nomenclature, was termed "The Tonto Basin," which in truth was a basin, so far as the lofty position we occupied was concerned, as we were not less than two or three thousand feet above the waters of the east fork of the Verde and of Tonto creek, but separated from them by dizzy precipices and bastions of crags, to surmount which would seem to defy the flight of the hawk and the buzzard. The day's march was over; our camping ground for the night was only a few yards ahead of us; and we were indulging in expressions of delight and wonder at this curious blending of the picturesque and the sublime. General Crook, Tom Moore, Captain Brent, Lieutenant Hess and when whoosh I whoosh I whooshed from front and flank, swept the arrows of an Apache ambush. We were not by any means green in that kind of business, and in less time than it takes to tell the story had turned ourselves from our horses and calling to the men what was the matter, were advancing from pine tree to pine tree upon the enemy. But the Apaches had only intended their attack to stampede our horses, or to kill or frighten a few of them or men at the head of the column. For such purposes, arrows or lances were preferable to bullets, since they made no noise to give to these in the rear of the column attacked a clue to what was going on in front. Our column had a short time before the attack been ordered to close up, "preparatory to going into camp; for this reason, the Apaches, in places of finding only the advance-guard, were promptly confronted by our whole force of five companies, all of old and experienced soldiers, who moved without waiting for orders, to places behind trees and rocks and began an advance which the small force of savages could not, of course, hope to be able to resist. Finding that they had stirred up a hornet's nest, the Apaches made off through the woods, the wisest thing they could do under the circumstances. On our side there were two or three "hits," none to amount to anything, and a couple of mules killed. The loss of the enemy, if any, was never learned. There were two of the Apaches separated from their companions who lay down on the edge of the precipice apparently making ready to sell their lives dearly. They were armed with bow and lance and rifle, and would, so we thought, make good use of them. Our men closed in on all sides expecting to hear a shot every moment. In this they were greatly mistaken because the Indians, after waiting until our people could see their black, head-like eyes shining with the fierce light of hate, made a bold spring down the vertical wall of the precipice, jumping from rock to rock and from tree to tree with the agility of mountain sheep. Then they were, with disheveled black hair streaming behind them, darting under the cover of overhanging ledges, following a course which threatened to dash them to certain death every moment; the rocky bluffs re-echoed the crack of rifles and bullets which whistled from every direction; but fortune favors the brave, and these two reckless sons of Anak, thanks to their perfect knowledge of the country which was then an absolute blank to us, and to the setting of the sun which hid them from our search, effected their escape and unmolested too, excepting the broken arm which dangled helpless and bleeding by the side of the hindmost, struck by a bullet from the rifle of our commanding general. Two of the arrows fired at General Crook were imbedded so deeply in the trunks of trees that they could not be dug out; one had penetrated into the wood up to the feathers, the arrow not quite so deep. The whole attacking party did not number more than a dozen and trusted, as the Apaches always did, to daring and the lack of warning on our side, to gain their object, or failing in that, to their intimate acquaintance with every foot of ground, to evade capture or pursuit. In their theory of war it was the constant dripping of the fountain which was to wear out the rock: constant attack, trivial, perhaps, in many individual cases, but kept up without intermission, that was to wear out the white soldier. No one on our side knew when attack was to come, no one knew when he was safe. The first piece of advice given to young officers upon arrival in Arizona used to be: "When you see signs of the Apaches, look out; and when you don't see signs, look out more than ever." The history of our frontier is well deserving of study by our intelligent young people, and the history and character of the noble, brave soldiers like General Crook, who redeemed it from savagery and made it a glorious heritage for civilization, cannot be too attentively examined.

SLEEP, PERCHANCE TO DREAM, And in That Sleep of Peace What Dreams May Come. THE BAND HAVE NO BRIGHT VISIONS. The Experience of Omahners After They Had Resigned Themselves to the Influence of the Drowsy Deity.
Dreams! Mysteries! What synonyms of each other are these two words? Apply them as you will to life or death, childhood or old age, happiness or sorrow, the past, present or future they both tell of that same indescribable something which makes the strongest man powerless, the weakest mighty; of that but for which Plato reasoned the soul itself would die, and the Creator could never have been.
It is a long-established fact that the sleep of those who cry out into this world bereft of sunlight is never illuminated with sun-lit scenes of trees, of flowers, of hill or vale, river or ocean. Let such an one hear these described ever so vividly, and yet they never come in dreams.
The sightless babe, though from the very dawn of comprehension up through childhood days, and into manhood may have been the hourly, constant companion of its parent and have pressed the dear, true face of mother and had its minutest features described a thousand times, and yet in dreams that lost, sad face never comes To light the gloom of long midnight.
Dreaming, to the blind, means merely the hearing of voices, a jargon of the fumblings sounds of a day.
Within the past few days there has come prominently to public notice us frightful a dream fantasy as perhaps ever occurred anywhere. A guest at one of the leading hotels was hurled from a third-story window to the pavement below. A moment later the room-mate of the four-fold fatally injured man rushed into the hotel office and, with the wildness horror depicted upon his face, told that he had done the terrible act in a dream. His statement was afterwards corroborated to some extent by the victim, now at the point of death.
The horrible affair sanguined to a member of the staff the idea of seeking for exciting dreamland incidents in the experience of well-known people in Omaha.
One of the most interesting was obtained from Leo Estelle, Esq.
"It was an experience," said Mr. Estelle, "which seems to grow more vivid with every passing year. It occurred on the night of March 18, 1876. As district attorney here I was engaged in prosecuting Tom Hallard for the murder of Henry Van Poorten at the St. James hotel which is now being torn down to make way for the new Tenth street viaduct. Judge Neville was on the bench, and on the day I have cited he sentenced Hallard to be hanged.
"Feeling greatly exhausted by my work that day I retired early accompanied by my wife. Suddenly I found myself dreaming that Hallard's execution was at hand, I was in an old slaughter house and seemed to be the first spectator to arrive. High upon the scaffold was a windlass such as is used to draw water from a well. From the windlass there dangled a rope having a noose in the end of it. Glancing down at the fourth floor I discovered in the faint light of the gruesome place a stream. As I looked it sent forth a gurgling sound and as I watched it I found that it was a stream of blood. Next I was horrified at discovering that it had its source directly at my feet. I shifted my position somewhat, and the stream of blood shifted its source until I found it impossible to escape, appearing to myself to be in some way connected with its coming into existence. I turned to leave the awful place but as I did so, there seemed from a distant corner of the barn like an atmosphere the presence of death. Every face was fuming, every face had been in the court room that same day. Billiard, the prisoner, entered between Sheriff, Deputy Sheriff Lou Grebe, each of whom held one of the victim's arms. Behind marched County Sheriff Loc Miller.
"Hallard had scarcely entered the place when his eyes fastened upon me with a look of reproach so intense and horrible that it burned into my very soul. He was deathly pale, and his neck, arms and legs seemed perfectly rigid. After going about a third of the distance his eyes turned away from me with a scorn that seemed fairly demoniac and fastened themselves upon the scaffold.
"As he looked away from me I remember that a mighty resolve came over me to leap forward and rescue him from his captors.
"I rushed forward and
"I awoke!
"I found myself standing far in the center of our bedroom, and in a tragic, beseeching attitude. My hands were clenched so tight that my finger nails were driven so deep into the flesh as to cause the blood to flow in almost a stream from each hand.
"I had scared my wife almost into insanity! I was reeking with perspiration and weak as the weakest child.
"And now comes a more singular part of the experience.
"No sooner had I been helped back into bed and after much fussing had gone to sleep again, than I dreamed the same dream all over again. Although I had required the assistance of my wife to get back into bed yet again I sprang, like a flash, from lying prone upon my back to standing bolt upright in the middle of the room, which was eight or ten feet from the bed.
"After a long time of reviving myself, no doubt wondering whether I had gone stark mad, my wife finally had the satisfaction of seeing me doze off into apparently a restful sleep.
"But sleep had scarcely closed my eyes when for a third time the ghastly dream returned, and at the identical moment in it as before, I sprang even a greater distance from off the bed, alighting in the same posture as before.
"Well, there was no more sleep in our house that night.
"Days afterward, when I had fully recovered from the effects of that awful night, I tried what do you think! Jumping from a lying posture on that bed to the floor.
"It was utterly and totally impossible for me to perform the feat.
"As for poor Tom Hallard, you will remember that the supreme court gave him penitentiary for life." George M. O'Brien, esq., told of a brief experience he had not long ago.
"I reside at home, and as is my custom always given to going through the house when I get home a little later to make sure that all the folks have retired or who is out so that the opening of doors will or will not startle me.
"On the night in question I came in about 10 o'clock and found all the family were in bed. Not feeling particularly sleepy, as I thought at the time, I picked up a book and commenced reading. It was a new novel and as I dipped into it I became disappointed and tossed it aside.
Before I know it, I had fallen asleep and began dreaming there were burglars in the house. As Omulhu had been having some very tough experiences with home invaders, just before that night, I resolved in my dream to lay for these. I was dreaming there were then in the house.
"All of a sudden, in my dream, I saw a burglar enter my room. I made a leap and caught him by the throat!"
"There was a terrific scream."
"I awoke."
"I had my mother by the throat!"
"You may talk about a big grown son raining tears of repentance upon his mother's neck. My mother had to fairly swim out of the tears that blurted forth upon her the instant that I awoke from that dream that night. I haven't got done buying her silk dresses yet to wear myself."
"You see, she hadn't heard me come in and with the usual motherly solicitude, she had peeped into my room to see if I was there, just the time before I must have been stalking about the room looking for my dream burglars and so found her uncharacteristically quiet."

THE NEWS IN THE BLUFFS ,
The Result of the Census Enumeration
Causes a Mammoth Howl ,
THE CHEEKY WORK OF BURGLARS ,
The CnlU to Sunday Worship The
ConccrtH In Knit-mount I'urk I'rove
Very Popular General ami
Personal Notes.
Last evening the city wiw filled with kick
ers , and all because the eleventh census had
not panned out satisfactorily. Captain Hlght
came In for his shuro of the maledictions that
were hurled about promiscuously , the
enumerators received another largo share ,
and even Sui > crlnteiident Porter was not for
gotten. Everybody wanted to kick about the
result , and they didn't seem to euro who hap
pened to get In the track of their anathemas.
And it would hardly bo jilst to blame them
for It. There Is no iiue.stlon but that they
"had a Itlelc coming. " A f tcr boldly assorting
for months tliut tlio UlutTs had n population
of over fO.tWO , It was considerably more than
nggravatlng to have the census supervisor
put u veto or Its equivalent upon the whole
thing nnd throw n p.ul of gloom over the city
by declaring that tlicroweio not 'J'JUOO people
ple who live and Imvo their being hero.
Jt wus too bad , of course , but then what
were they going to do about It. That was
what the supervisor wanted to know , and
nobody seemed to be sufllcieutly well posted
to tell him. Tlio census was ovor. and what
could they do ! That was the question , and it
was n serious ono under tlio circumstances.
Some of tlio kickers tried to find relief -
liof in cussing tbo supervisor , but the
supervisor Ilitnlly got tired of it and
lie cussed back williu vim and relish that
wns surprising Ha said ho hud hud enough
of it , nnd wouldn't stand any more nbuso. If
the people didn't like it tlioy could go straight
to Omaha , or words to that eltcet. Ho had
done ills duty , and that was all there was to
it. Ho knew that everybody was enumerated
with possibly ono or two exceptions , ami tbo
citizens needn't blame him because ho haJn't
limited up a lot of fictitious mimes. *
Then somebody else chipped in nnd suid
nobody wanted any fictitious mimes regis
tered , nnd would bo well satisfied if they
could only have boua fide residents , but they
didn't liuve them and the city would drop to
tenth place in tlio state. They stild tlio
enumerators were u lot of sticks , nnd then
the supervisor opened his fueo again. Ho
wouldn't Imvo his men abused , as it
was n direct insult to him.
This was answered by another outsider , who
said that if tlio supervisor wanted to shoul
der it , all right , but no one had accused him
of incompetency or neglect of duty.
So it went , and people became excited.
The hito evening rain failed to cool them
down , and it will bo anything but u pious
feeling lot of citizens who will jr. > to church
today or stand around tlio BuylUs park
fountain to ease their minds.

It is the maddest folly in the world for
a man to saddle himself with debts , if hoover
ever expects to puy them , says Texas
Siftings. If you once acquire the habit
of paying debts and fall behind , it will
bo very ilillicult to catch up unless you
take to robbing trains and meet with
phenomenal success , which Is too im
probable a contingency to justify a young
man taking any risks. Ono who inherits
wealth and goes on year after year
spending a little more than his Income ,
will become poor in time , and will ulti
mately bring his grny-hairod father and
other distant relatives to their respect
ive tombs by running for olllco. Living
beyond their means lias brought multi
tudes of other highly respectable people
to ruin , hence the safest way Is to sturt
a big daily newspaper in a small town ,
and in a short time you will have so
much moans , so many corner lots , and
such an immense cash balance that it
will bo impossible for you to live beyond
your means , even if you should keep a
fast yueht and other expensive necessi
ties.

A man who is in debt walks In the

tolerably sure , particularly if thosherilT

Origin of the Term "Pin Mont'y. "
Pin money is a lady's allowance of
money for horown personal expenditure.
Long uftor the invention of pins in the
fourteenth century , the inukor was al
lowed to sell them in open shop on the
1st and 2d of January , says the Dry
Goods Chronicle , It was then that the
court ladies and city dames flocked to the
depots to buv them , having first been
provided with money by their husbands.
When pins became cheap and common ,
the .ladies spent their allowances on
other faiu'les , but the term pm money
remained in vogue ,

The ISnstlmulo Abolished In the Kit-
ropcun Part , of the Kmpli-c.
In Turkey twenty years ago men were
hanged for trifles ; tradesmen who sold
short weight might bo nailed by the ear
to their * rvn doorposts , and potty
thieves , as well as men who were im
pertinent to ollleials or who refused to
pay their taxes twice over , were has-
limited on the solos of the foot. This
last punishment , by the way , was lighter
or cruel according as the patient was
accustomed to go barefooted or to spend
his life in babouohcs. The water-
carriers , porters , street fruit-sellers , and
peasants generally , whoso soles were
like lioi-n , cared little for twenty-five
cuts with the bamboo , but to tradesmen ,
clerks and women the stripes were ex
cruciatingly painful and brought weeks
of lameness.
The present sultan has abolished the
bastinado in the Kuroponn part of his do
minions , says Temple Bar , and practic
ally done away with capital punishment ,
except for brigandage and for attempts
of _ assassinating high ofllcials. Even
brigands , however , are only hunt'ed
when they have laid hands on foreigners
and caused an outcrv in the European
press. Genuine Turks seldom find their
way into jail , saving for inurdor.or ina
bility to pay taxes , and the murders are
often committed under the influence of
religious fanaticism , when the Mussul
man , driven mad by the fast of the Hum-
adanor by the rejoicings of the Bairam
holidays , runs amuck with a knife among
a crowd of Giaours. Such offenders ,
however , are always leniently dealt with
by the pashas , unless , of course , they
happen to kill a foreign Christian , hav
ing an ambassador lo avenge him.
In Turkish prisons the Mussulmans
and Christians are kept apart , and the
former , a grave and gentleman-like look
ing set of men , bask in the sun most of
the day , smoking , and thov perform fre
quent ablutions at the trickling fountain
in the middle of their airing yard. They
give no trouble , and wait with the ut
most patience until it shall please Allah
to open the prison doors for them. The
Christians , a heard of Greeks , Bul
garians and Macedonians , with the most
villainous faces , morals and manners
imaginable , have to bo ruled witn a
tight hand to bp kept from strang
ling one another. When it becomes
necessary to hang one of these
gentry the Greek goes to his puiushinunt
struggling and howling ; the'Park makes
no more ado about the matter than if he
were yoing to hava his head shaved. As
the Turkish exchequer provides no
hangman or ropes for executions , some
curious tilings occasionally happen.
Not long ago a Turk who had to bo
hanged at Kirdjoli walked about the
town for an hour with two soldiers who
had boon ordered to execute him. These
soldiers did not mean to buy a rope with
their own money , and they failed to bor
row one. Eventually thev broke into a
stable , stole a rope , and hanged llioir
man from a nail over the door.

Underneath the pier of the Bond wave
power company at Ocean Grove , N. .J , ,
a mammoth iron egg floats upon the top
of the waves , says the Now York Times.
In mild wcuthor the cfftf bobs up
serenely , rising to a bight of about four
teen inches above the dead
level of the sea , but when the
weather is rough and great rollers
come rushing in , the egg rises
forcefully upward live feet or more. It
can not sot loose , for it is made fast to
the iior ) by long , strong arms of iron.
Up from the top of the mammoth egg a
rope runs , and after it has passed over a
pulley it stretches on shoreward and at
last cnto-s a wooden building situated
upon the beach. In the building is a
pump , and the rope is In connection with
it. Tlio pumiUs lifting about three thou
sand gallons of water it minute , raising
it distances equivalent to the height of
the waves.
The explanation of the apparatus and
the work it is doing is that Mr. N. O.
Bond , whose namesake the Bond Wave
Power company is , has successfully com
pleted an experiment undertaken prim
arily to determine if it wore possible to
make the ocean , by the motion of its
waves , pump enough of itself into Wes
ley lake to make that lalco a body of salt
water. There are people living
in Asbury Park and Ocean Grove
who , considering that the sources of
the water of Wesley lake are in swamp
lands , judfje that the lake is to some extent -
tent a health-menacing body of water ,
and they have for some time wished that
it might bo salted. Mr. Bond says that
lie will have no dilliculty in making
Lake Wesley suit , and ho expects to do
.t this summer. Ho says that ho is por-
'eetly satisfied that his now wave ma
chine will not only do the work which it
was especially devised to do , hut lie is
ilso assured that It will bo found a val
uable machine for t'olng other things
which need to bo done economically.
Is There nil Onyx Trust ?
"There Is no onxy trust , " said B. .T.
Solemn n of California to a reporter for
Lhe Chicago Tribune.
"Dispatches from Now York a day erie
io ago stated that all the onyx quarries
n Mexico had been purchased by a New
York syndicate which proposed to secure
i monopoly on this ornamental stone.
It wus claimed that the syndicate would
mt the price iup higher than the ElTol
! ewer , but that people would bo forced
to pay the prices , for the combination
would own nil the onyx in this country.
That is extremely misleading , for the
> est onyx quarries in the world uro in
1'uliforniu. The onyx of Solano county
s unexcelled In beauty. Larger slabs
ire quarried there than In any plaeo In
his country. The quarries are only
ivo miles from the water and the onyx
rom Mexico has to bo transported him-
Ireds of miles. The California onyx is
translucent uml requires no bright trim-
nlngs to dlspluv it. If it wore not the
tout California's millionaires would not
ship it to Now York to furnish their
mstorn houses. C. P. Huntlngton lias
ust shipped u big quantity to Now York
? lty. Onyx is being discovered every
Ittle while in California so much so ,
n fact , that before long It may bo ono of
he leading exports of the stato. With
this in view It would b imponniblu to
secure a monopoly by buj ing a few mines

wonlly jealousy than religious fervor litho
the bosoms of these edifying church'
fjoors.
IloehuHter proved no exception to this
rule , and Its belligerent bishop was ties'
potic both In his sucredotal and private
character , tolerating no laxity or In-
( liiToroneo towards either himself or his
high olllee.
Mrs. Wlnthrop was a puny , frail
woman , possessing neither will nor In
dividuality. In the days when ho was
but a struggling cleric her
husband had Hcarcoly deigned to
consult her wishes oven on house
hold alTafrs , and when ho reached
plscopal rank , no more was this incoko
wife accounted as of importance in his
social or domestic relations , but ho loved
their only daughter with an atTootion
.surprising in one of so uncongenial a na
ture.
She was a bright , fair-haired girl , just
blooming into womanhood , and his lordship -
ship of Rochester thought nothing too
precious or too good for his cherished
child.
Dr. Winthrop was fond of mimic , so
was his daughter , and to hear her lovely
voice in the cathedral choir made the
proud prelate tin-ill with emotion. Con
stance and her musical talent touched
the only wealc spot in the bishop's na
ture , and under hits regime the arts of
music and singing were prominent fea
tures in Rochester society.
The leading tenor parts were sung by
Henry Shot-stone , a good-looking young
fellow about twenty-three years oldwho
was a "toller" in the principal bank of
the city , and pos.-essing a singularly
sweet and powerful voice.
Many an invitation to private concerts
and musical parties was refused by young
Sherstonc , and people called him self-
ceiled in consequence particularly as it
was known ho attended all gatherings at
the episcopal palace though when ques
tioned as to the cause of Ills absence
from other entertainments , ho generally
sought refuge in the excuse of not foei-
iiifj well.
This statement did not meet with much
credence , and ns 1 have said , the young
bank clerk wa cited as a sad example of
vanity und self-esteem. Whcn.howoyer ,
he did consent to sing , all was forgotten
and forgiven in the pleasure of listening
to his powerful and sympathetic voice.
The real cause of Henry Sherstone's
refusal of the courtesies extended to him
was simply bushtulness. Instead of being -
ing vain lie was retiring and shv , pos-
hc.-sing little eonlidonco in himself , and
it required a great oil'ort on his part to
'
screw up his moral courage to the'point
of appearing in society.
This weakness ho scarcely ever con
fessed , but Constance Winthrop had
seen through and understood his na
ture , liking him the better for what her
father styled his "humility , ' ' though
whenevertho young clerk happened to
meet the bishop's daughter lie only
lifted his hat and quickly turned away ;
and in the choir lie remained apart from
her unless their musical duties brought
them together.
Ho was advised to study vocal music
under a llrst-clnss maestro , and this ho
did as far as his duties in the bank would
permit him.
Ho began now to acquire that confi
dence in himself which had previously
been wanting that nervous self-reli
ance whica marks every man who knows
ho can be "equal to the occasion. "
Dr. Winthrop was anything but
pleased at the young bank cleric's ad
vance in lyric fame. As long as his line
tenor voice was at the bishop's disposal ,
to bo used for the purpose of adding tcr
liis lordship's honor and glory , well and
good , but any tiling outhido of this ho de
clined to tolerate. '
So it eamo to pass that young Shor-
stono's magnificent voice was seldom
heard in the cathedral or at the palace ,
and the bishop would remark to his
friends with pompous solemnity :
"I have grave doubts of that young
man Shorstone. 1 fear ho is drifting
into evil courses. "
Constance Winthrop thought often and
sadly of Henry Shorstono and his exqui
site voice , and many a night did she
dream of the duets they used to sing to
gether awaking to regret that she
might hear those notes no more.
It happened one morning towards the
end of summer that Floury Shorstono ,
feeling tired and overworked , sought a
few hours' leave of absence , and obtain
ing a brief rospjto from work , went lor
a short ramble into the country. Kent ,
Kngland's finest county , was looking its
very best , the hops wore glorious in
their wealth of blossoms , the Medway
lay calm In the noonday sun , and the
great cathedral's majestic proportions
dwarfed all that lay within its shadow.
Listlessly wandering Henry found at
length a shaded nook , whore , easting
himself down upon the verdant sward ,
ho sought repose In the pleasures of
thought and memory.
At length , taking the manuscript of n
now sonn from his pocket , ho commenced
singing the opening lines to himself in a
low tone.
"Mr. Sherstono , " said Dr. Winthrop's
daughter , suddenly advancing from the
shade of some neighboring tree , "your
voice has attracted me hither ; how
greatly it has improved. "
"Miss Wintlirop , " lie exclaimed , un
covering and rising hastily , "this is in
deed an unexpected honor. "
"Honor , Mr. Shorstono"
"Yen , you are Dr. Winthrop's daugh
ter. "
"And you , Mr. Shorntono , are pos
sessed of most uncommon gifts. "
"To bo a wretched bank cleric is , in
deed , an uncommon gift , " ho echoed
with a depth of melancholy satire that
wont to her heart.
"Hut , " she said , "there is a bright
future opening before you : I am certain
you will make a inline , 'a '
"What's in a name , " ho replied bit
terly. "My father won a name in the
iiorvlco of his country ; and I , the son of
Colonel Slun-htono , dead threey.ears ago ,
inn left a drudge in a public bank. "
"You never thought enough of your
self , " she obr-orved soothingly.
"Ah ! Mies Wintlirop , it Is because-
thought so much of myself that 1 feel
so unhappv , but I am soon going away ,
where I shall try to forgot "
"What ? " she interrupted , "you are
1'olng a way V
"Yos , 1 shall soon leave ' this plaeo
never to return unles.s 'relieved by this
load of insupportable minory. "
"O , don't go , " escaped Involuntarily
From her lips ; then t > ho looked on the
ground , blushing painfully. Ho grow
wry pain but continui-d
' 'Miss WiiiUmip , I am g Hg abroad
this month. 1 believe in what jou say ,
that 1 ahull muko u imiuuj but uowr uuu
I forgot what I Imvo gone through. " Hi
paused , but she remained silent , and hi
resumed :
"I am not of those who cease to re
momber'.and lean never forget your kliu
notice of mo In the past. The world OH
teemed mo frivolous and vain. I was nose
so , but 1 shrank Into myself because o
inv position.- This period of my llfi
will soon como to an end. While o'theri
slighted , you nlone , Miss Winthrop
foomed to pity and understand me , and :
thank you for your gracious toleration o
the poor bank clerk. "
"Mr. Slierstono , you wrong mo bi
using the word toleration. I have a triu
esteem for vou. "
"Miss Winthrop , " ho said earnestlv
"do not epeak so kindly to mo. I fear
lest I forget that vou are "
"What I over shall bo , " she said has
Illy ; "your sincere friend. "
"O , forgive mo , " ho cried suddenly
"but it is you you , who are the cause o
my misery. "
"I"she echoed in surprise ; "why an
1 the cansoV"
"Because I have dared to love you , '
ho answered ; "but forjrlvo my temerity
and presumption. It is all 1 ask. For
give me. "
"What is this I hear , unhallowec
scoundrel ? ' ' thundered the bishop * !
voice , an striding suddenly forward lie
stood between them. "Away with you
presumptuous rascal , before I minis !
your impertinence as it deserves. ' '
"O father , father ! " she entreated ; "d (
not speak so ; do not bo angry , rememboi
ho and I have known eaeli other almost
from childhood. "
Henry Sherstono stood proudly erect
and looked the bishop full in the eyes ,
"Of course , my lord , ' * ho said ( irmly ,
"you consider mo deserving of youi
wrath , but recollect I am a gentleman's
8011. " .
"Ho\V dare you bandy words with mo ,
sir ? " roared the enraged prolate. " 13ut
I shall not condescend to argue with you.
Fortunately for you you are leaving the
place , had it been otherwise you should
have been turned away. "
"It is ungenerous of your lordship thus
to assail my weakness , " said Henry
Shorthstono , sadly , "yet never mind.
Farewell , Miss Winthrop"and raising
Ills hat , the ban kelork walked onwards.
But ho cast a nagoniy.ed glance buck-
ward at the girl which nerved her to
desperation , and springing after him ere
her father could detain her , she caught
his hand and looking earnestly into his
face , said
"Henry , wherever you may go , al
ways remember Constance Wintlirop. "
"Great lieavcns.sliouted ! the bishop.
"Yes , father , before ho leaves this
plaeo forever , I toll you , I love Henry
Slierthstone. " * * * * *

by a kind of "scratch" company , fore
most among whom was a countryman of
my own , known as Signer Dortoni , who
had lately gained fame on the Italian
stage.
1 was more than pleased to learn this
of one in whom I took great personal in
terest , and for whom on several occasions
I had , as it wore , stood lyrical sponsor.
Among'my friends then in Milan the
few days proceeding my reappearance at
La Scala passed pleasantly away and the
chief of my special intimates was one Dr.
Frasior , a good natured young fellow
from "over the border. " with a certain
.shrewd humor about him.
He was liberal in money matters , butte
to pay a single penny beyond the actual
sum due for a debl lie over obstinately
declined.
In all ways Angus Frasier was most
estimable his wit was perhaps lacking
in Hibernian sparkle , but though slow it
was sure. Ho wild once during a dinner
at the ' . 'embassy : " "So much lias boon
spoken in praise of Dublin car drivers
that I suppose it is only there 'Carmen'
can bo played or suiif , ' in perfection. "
On the last night of Signer Cortoni's
engagement I occupied a quiet seat in
the stage box. "Sonnambula" being the
opera. Its light music snite.l him ad-
mirablv , and lie excelled in mezzo coloring
ingAt the end of the phase , which lie
" . " I heard
sung "compassionate. some
commotion in a neighboring box , and ,
ascertaining that a .young lady hud
fainted I went round with the object of
olToring assistance.
She was a pale-faced , fragile girl , and
her mother seemed a weak , nerveless
woman. Accompanying them to their
carriage , she told mo her daughter had
for Bomo time been subject to fits of
melancholy. She had been ordered to
Italy for change , and as she had a pas
sion for music she hud been taken to the
opera as a last resource.
Karly the following morning Dr.
Fraser called upon me.
"My dear Hooves , " said he , "you Imvo
rendered a signal service to a patient of
mine. "
"Of yours ? " I echoed in surprise.
"Yes , the young lady you gave assist
ance to last night is a source of no little
concern to mo. She and her mother-
speak warmly of your kindness. Do
come ever with mo and cull upon
them. "
"With pleasure , " I answered ; "but
who are tnoy ? "
My friend entered into a long state
ment of the circumstances of the ease ,
and ended by saying if her tendency to
melancholia cannot bo cured it will un
doubtedly prove fatal in a short timo. "
Hotlines I found myself talking to the
girl's parents , and it seemed to mo that
her father , though apparently a brusque ,
hash-natured 'man , foil his daughter's
condition far more acutely than did her
wealc , insipid mother.
"Oil , " ho said to mo almost piteonsly ,
"I would willingly renounce all I possess
could I recall the past , and see my child
happy once more. "
And talcing Fraser and myself into his
eonlidonco , ho told the whole story of
the why and wherefore of his daughter's
state of despondency , which change of
scone and traveling could not alleviate
nay , it oven seemed more pronounced
Hineo listening to "Somnainbula" the
previous night.
The old man's story surprised as much
as it interested me , and on leaving the
hotel in company with Fraser his
answers to certain questions of mine
confirmed a decision 1 had already como
to.
"Angus , " I declared , "I'll euro Unit
girl yet. "
"You ? " ho wild , surprised.
"Yes , I muko no pretensions to medi
cal lore , but "
"If you can help the poor girl hi any
way , " lie observed , "I shall only bo too
happy. "
"Ilut shall I get the fees ? " asked I ,
laughingly.
" dear Hooves " lie said
"My , , seriously ,
"It is not a trivial mutter. IJraln mls-
ulilof wo can do little to arrest ; but if
you can alleviate her condition in any
way , do so for heaven'H sake. "
"When shall you call upon them
iiL'uin ? "
"
"Tomorrow morningunles9 summoned
uurlior.
"Well , say tomorrow , Fruncr , and let
mo come with you. "
"Agreedmy dear follow , " said Angus ,
nnd a thousand thanks , lam deeply In
terested in her cane. Komombor , Mio Is
nil only child. "
That night I slnpt little , but thought
of the pant , and of the checkered ways
nf lif < , and m-xt day , accompanim ! by

field saw General Butler over at Poland
Spring Sunday and ho aeeldentallv eamu
into eloso proximity to him In the
crowds on the nlu//.u , says tlio Lowistim
Journal. Mr. Ulsheo was as good a sol-
dler us ever went to war , and be.sldea J
getting a full dose of camp life and HOI- -
vice ho got eighteen months of short
fodder and hard bedding In rebel prisons.
Finding himself near General Butlorund
finding the old gentleman cordial and
good-natured , he said to him that ho
supposed ho owed his llfo to him. Gen
eral Butler wanted to know how. Mr.
Bisboo called to his mind the time when
the commandant of a certain southern
prison was going to hung a lot of the
union prisoners. At that time General
Butler had Fit/-llugh I.eo and some of
the other southern leaders in his keep-
Ing. The reported outrage to northern
prisoners fired Butler's sense of tem
poral retribution , and he threateni'd to
string up his prisoners if a single union
prisoner was hanged. "I was one of
those union prisoners , " said Mr. Blabce.
"and I reckon that you saved my neck. "
The eye of General Butler lighted up
wonderfully. lie lifted his chin , looked
at Air. Bisboo and then said with ener
gy : "I'm glad to know you , sir , and I
say to you todtiy that I well renu-inbor ,

THE NEWS IN THE BLUFFS,
The Result of the Census Enumeration
Causes a Mammoth Howl,
THE CHEEKY WORK OF BURGLARS,
The Call to Sunday Worship The
Concerts In Palmerston Park Prove
Very Popular General and
Personal Notes.
Last evening the city was filled with kickers, and all because the eleventh census had not panned out satisfactorily. Captain Light came in for his share of the maledictions that were hurled about promiscuously, the enumerators received another large share, and even President Porter was not forgotten. Everybody wanted to kick about the result, and they didn't seem to care who happened to get in the track of their anathemas. And it would hardly be just to blame them for it. There is no question but that they "had a field coming." A fact boldly asserting for months that the cities had a population of over 30,000, it was considerably more than aggravating to have the census supervisor put a veto or its equivalent upon the whole thing and throw a pall of gloom over the city by declaring that there were not 30,000 people who live and have their being here.
It was too bad, of course, but then what were they going to do about it. That was what the supervisor wanted to know, and nobody seemed to be sufficiently well posted to tell him. The census was over, and what could they do! That was the question, and it was a serious one under the circumstances. Some of the kickers tried to find relief in cussing the supervisor, but the supervisor finally got tired of it and cussed back with vim and relish that was surprising. He said he had had enough of it, and wouldn't stand any more abuse. If the people didn't like it they could go straight to Omaha, or words to that effect. He had done his duty, and that was all there was to it. He knew that everybody was enumerated with possibly one or two exceptions, and the citizens needn't blame him because he hadn't filled up a lot of fictitious times.
Then somebody else chipped in and said nobody wanted any fictitious times registered, and would be well satisfied if they could only have bona fide residents, but they didn't have them and the city would drop to tenth place in the state. They said the enumerators were a lot of sticks, and then the supervisor opened his fire again. He wouldn't have his men abused, as it was a direct insult to him.
This was answered by another outsider, who said that if the supervisor wanted to shoulder it, all right, but no one had accused him of incompetency or neglect of duty.
So it went, and people became excited. The hot evening rain failed to cool them down, and it will be anything but a pious feeling lot of citizens who will go to church today or stand around the Buicks park fountain to ease their minds.

The residence of William Kastner, No. 46 Third Street, was entered Friday morning at an early hour, entrance being affected by tearing a screen from a rear window. The house was ransacked, but no valuables were found. The prowlers then turned their attention to the pantry, and sat down to a luncheon of corned beef, bread and pie. They then took the milk pail and went out to the yard, where they topped Kastner's old brindle cow. After this securing their milk from the original pail, they departed. It was subsequently discovered that both Mr. Kastner and his wife had been chloroformed. There is no clue to the marauders, the only trace of them being a few delicate footprints between the house and cow yard. They closely resemble those of a woman, but may have been made by a youth. The cow refuses to give any information and there is little probability that the burglars will be apprehended.

Advice to Young Men.
It is the maddest folly in the world for a man to saddle himself with debts, if he ever expects to pay them, says Texas Siftings. If you once acquire the habit of paying debts and fall behind, it will be very difficult to catch up unless you take to robbing trains and meet with phenomenal success, which is too improbable a contingency to justify a young man taking any risks. One who inherits wealth and goes on year after year spending a little more than his income, will become poor in time, and will ultimately bring his gray-haired father and other distant relatives to their respective tombs by running for office. Living beyond their means has brought multitudes of other highly respectable people to ruin, hence the safest way is to start a big daily newspaper in a small town, and in a short time you will have so much means, so many corner lots, and such an immense cash balance that it will be impossible for you to live beyond your means, even if you should keep a fast yacht and other expensive necessities.
A man who is in debt walks in the midst of perils, if he is foolish enough to walk. He should ride in the street cars, and then it will be impossible for him to walk in the midst of perils. Get ahead and keep ahead, and your success is tolerably sure, particularly if those shareholders or men with your note of hand are trying to catch up with you.
Origin of the Term "Pin Money."
Pin money is a lady's allowance of money for her own personal expenditure. Long after the invention of pins in the fourteenth century, the market was allowed to sell them in open shop on the 1st and 2nd of January, says the Dry Goods Chronicle. It was then that the court ladies and city dames flocked to the depots to buy them, having first been provided with money by their husbands.
When pins became cheap and common, the ladies spent their allowances on other fares, but the term 'piano money' remained in vogue.

TURKISH PUNISHMENTS. The Bastinado Abolished in the European Part of the Empire. In Turkey, twenty years ago, men were hanged for trifles; tradesmen who sold short weight might be nailed by the ear to their front doorposts, and petty thieves, as well as men who were impertinent to officials or who refused to pay their taxes twice over, were flogged on the soles of the foot. This last punishment, by the way, was lighter or cruel according as the patient was accustomed to go barefooted or to spend his life in babuccs. The water-carriers, porters, street fruit-sellers, and peasants generally, whose soles were like leather, cared little for twenty-five cuts with the bamboo, but to tradesmen, clerks, and women, the stripes were excruciatingly painful and brought weeks of lameness. The present sultan has abolished the bastinado in the European part of his dominions, says Temple Bar, and practically done away with capital punishment, except for brigandage and for attempts at assassinating high officials. Even brigands, however, are only hunted when they have laid hands on foreigners and caused an outcry in the European press. Genuine Turks seldom find their way into jail, saving for murder or inability to pay taxes, and the murders are often committed under the influence of religious fanaticism, when the Muslim, driven mad by the fast of the Ramadan or by the rejoicings of the Bairam holidays, runs amok with a knife among a crowd of Giaours. Such offenders, however, are always leniently dealt with by the pashas, unless, of course, they happen to kill a foreign Christian, having an ambassador to avenge him. In Turkish prisons, the Muslims and Christians are kept apart, and the former, a grave and gentleman-like looking set of men, bask in the sun most of the day, smoking, and they perform frequent ablutions at the trickling fountain in the middle of their airing yard. They give no trouble, and wait with the utmost patience until it shall please Allah to open the prison doors for them. The Christians, a heard of Greeks, Bulgarians, and Macedonians, with the most villainous faces, morals, and manners imaginable, have to be ruled with a tight hand to be kept from strangling one another. When it becomes necessary to hang one of these gentery, the Greek goes to his punishment struggling and howling; the Turk makes no more ado about the matter than if he were going to have his head shaved. As the Turkish exchequer provides no hangman or ropes for executions, some curious things occasionally happen. Not long ago a Turk who had to be hanged at Kirdjali walked about the town for an hour with two soldiers who had been ordered to execute him. These soldiers did not mean to buy a rope with their own money, and they failed to borrow one. Eventually, they broke into a stable, stole a rope, and hanged their man from a nail over the door. A PHYSICAL MORPHINE PUMP. Novel Means of Economizing Labor at Ocean Reach. Underneath the pier of the Bond Wave Power company at Ocean Grove, N.J., a mammoth iron egg floats upon the top of the waves, says the New York Times. In mild weather the egg bobs up serenely, rising to a height of about fourteen inches above the dead level of the sea, but when the weather is rough and great rollers come rushing in, the egg rises forcefully upward live feet or more. It can not set loose, for it is made fast to the pier by long, strong arms of iron. Up from the top of the mammoth egg a rope runs, and after it has passed over a pulley it stretches on shoreward and at last enters a wooden building situated upon the beach. In the building is a pump, and the rope is in connection with it. The pump lifts about three thousand gallons of water a minute, raising it distances equivalent to the height of the waves. The explanation of the apparatus and the work it is doing is that Mr. N.O. Bond, whose namesake the Bond Wave Power company is, has successfully completed an experiment undertaken primarily to determine if it were possible to make the ocean, by the motion of its waves, pump enough of itself into Wesley lake to make that lake a body of salt water. There are people living in Asbury Park and Ocean Grove who, considering that the sources of the water of Wesley lake are in swamp lands, judge that the lake is to some extent a health-menacing body of water, and they have for some time wished that it might be salted. Mr. Bond says that he will have no difficulty in making Lake Wesley suit, and he expects to do so this summer. He says that he is perfectly satisfied that his new wave machine will not only do the work which it was especially devised to do, but he is also assured that it will be found a valuable machine for doing other things which need to be done economically. Is There an Onyx Trust? "There is no onyx trust," said B.T. Solemn of California to a reporter for the Chicago Tribune. "Dispatches from New York a day or two ago stated that all the onyx quarries in Mexico had been purchased by a New York syndicate which proposed to secure a monopoly on this ornamental stone. It was claimed that the syndicate would fix the price up higher than the El Toro sewer, but that people would be forced to pay the prices, for the combination would own all the onyx in this country. That is extremely misleading, for the best onyx quarries in the world are in California. The onyx of Solano county is unexcelled in beauty. Larger slabs are quarried there than in any place in this country. The quarries are only twenty miles from the water and the onyx from Mexico has to be transported hundreds of miles. The California onyx is translucent and requires no bright trimmings to display it. If it were not for the fact that California's millionaires would not ship it to New York to furnish their estate houses, C.P. Huntington has just shipped a big quantity to New York City. Onyx is being discovered every little while in California so much so, in fact, that before long it may become one of the leading exports of the state. With this in view, it would be impossible to secure a monopoly by buying a few mines in Mexico. THE ROMANCY A VOICE, Sims Hoopes in Boston Globe: During a long course of provincial tours I came to the conclusion, many years since, that the cathedral towns are the most dull and lifeless places on the face of the earth and the almost quail-gentility which I assumed by the better class of inhabitants, together with their ten parties and the scandal talked thereat, grow very wearisome to men of the world. Particularly on Sundays, when each "fashionable" woman tries to excel her neighbors in the splendor of her Sabbath raiment; but I fear there is inwarily jealousy than religious fervor in the bosoms of these edifying churchgoers.
Doctor Hutchinson proved no exception to this rule, and its belligerent bishop was pockmarked both in his sacredotal and private character, tolerating no laxity or indulgence towards either himself or his high office.
Mrs. Winthrop was a puny, frail woman, possessing neither will nor individuality. In the days when he was but a struggling cleric, her husband had rarely deigned to consult her wishes even on household affairs, and when he reached episcopal rank, no more was this indulgent wife accounted as of importance in his social or domestic relations, but he loved their only daughter with an affection surprising in one of so uncongenial a nature.
She was a bright, fair-haired girl, just blooming into womanhood, and his lordship of Rochester thought nothing too precious or too good for his cherished child.
Dr. Winthrop was fond of music, so was his daughter, and to hear her lovely voice in the cathedral choir made the proud prelate thrill with emotion. Constance and her musical talent touched the only weak spot in the bishop's nature, and under his regime the arts of music and singing were prominent features in Rochester society.
The leading tenor parts were sung by Henry Sherston, a good-looking young fellow about twenty-three years old who was a "teller" in the principal bank of the city, and possessing a singularly sweet and powerful voice.
Many an invitation to private concerts and musical parties was refused by young Sherston, and people called him self-censured in consequence particularly as it was known he attended all gatherings at the episcopal palace though when questioned about his absence from other entertainments, he generally sought refuge in the excuse of not feeling well.
This statement did not meet with much credence, and as I have said, the young bank clerk was cited as a sad example of vanity and self-esteem. When however, he did consent to sing, all was forgotten and forgiven in the pleasure of listening to his powerful and sympathetic voice.
The real cause of Henry Sherston's refusal of the courtesies extended to him was simply bashfulness. Instead of being vain, he was retiring and shy, possessing little confidence in himself, and it required a great effort on his part to screw up his moral courage to the point of appearing in society.
This weakness he scarcely ever confessed, but Constance Winthrop had seen through and understood his nature, liking him the better for what her father styled his "humility," though whenever the young clerk happened to meet the bishop's daughter, he only lifted his hat and quickly turned away; and in the choir, he remained apart from her unless their musical duties brought them together.
He was advised to study vocal music under a first-class maestro, and this he did as far as his duties in the bank would permit him.
He began now to acquire that confidence in himself which had previously been wanting, that nervous self-reliance which marks every man who knows he can be "equal to the occasion."
Dr. Winthrop was anything but pleased at the young bank clerk's advance in lyric fame. As long as his tenor voice was at the bishop's disposal, to be used for the purpose of adding to his lordship's honor and glory, well and good, but anything outside of this he declined to tolerate.
So it came to pass that young Sherston's magnificent voice was seldom heard in the cathedral or at the palace, and the bishop would remark to his friends with pompous solemnity: "I have grave doubts of that young man, Sherston. I fear he is drifting into evil courses."
Constance Winthrop thought often and sadly of Henry Sherston and his exquisite voice, and many a night did she dream of the duets they used to sing together, awakening to regret that she might hear those notes no more.
It happened one morning towards the end of summer that Henry Sherston, feeling tired and overworked, sought a few hours' leave of absence, and obtaining a brief response from work, went for a short ramble into the country. Kent, England's finest county, was looking its very best, the hops wore glorious in their wealth of blossoms, the Medway lay calm in the noonday sun, and the great cathedral's majestic proportions dwarfed all that lay within its shadow.
Listlessly wandering Henry found at length a shaded nook, where, casting himself down upon the verdant sward, he sought repose in the pleasures of thought and memory.
At length, taking the manuscript of a new sonnet from his pocket, he commenced singing the opening lines to himself in a low tone.
"Mr. Sherston," said Dr. Winthrop's daughter, suddenly advancing from the shade of some neighboring tree, "your voice has attracted me hither; how greatly it has improved."
"Honor, Mr. Sherston," he exclaimed, uncovering and rising hastily, "this is indeed an unexpected honor."
"Honor, Mr. Sherston," she said, "you, are Dr. Winthrop's daughter."
"And you, Mr. Sherston, are possessed of most uncommon gifts," he replied with a depth of melancholy satire that went to her heart.
"But," she said, "there is a bright future opening before you; I am certain you will make a name for yourself."
"What's in a name," he replied bitterly, "My father won a name in the service of his country; and I, the son of Colonel Sherston, dead these three years ago, am left a drudge in a public bank."
"You never thought enough of yourself," she observed soothingly.
Ah! Miss Winthrop, it is because I thought so much of myself that I feel so unhappy, but I am soon going away, where I shall try to forget.
"What? You are going away?" she interrupted, "You, too?"
"Yes, I shall soon leave this place never to return unless relieved by this load of insupportable misery."
"Oh, don't go," escaped involuntarily from her lips; then she looked on the ground, blushing painfully. Her growth wore pain but continued.
"Miss Winthrop, I am going abroad this month. I believe in what you say, that I shall make a new beginning but now, forget what I have gone through." He paused, but she remained silent, and he resumed:
"I am not one of those who cease to remember and I shall never forget your kind notice of me in the past. The world once deemed me frivolous and vain. I was no so, but I shrank into myself because of my position. This period of my life will soon come to an end. While others slighted, you alone, Miss Winthrop, seemed to pity and understand me, and thank you for your gracious toleration of the poor bank clerk."
"Mr. Sherston, you wrong me by using the word toleration. I have a true esteem for you."
"Miss Winthrop, do not speak so kindly to me. I fear lest I forget that you are..."
"What I over shall be, she said hastily; "your sincere friend."
"Oh, forgive me," he cried suddenly, "but it is you who are the cause of my misery."
"I?" she echoed in surprise; "why, what is the reason?"
"Because I have dared to love you," he answered; "but forgive my temerity and presumption. It is all I ask. Forgive me."
"What is this I hear, unhallowed scoundrel?" thundered the bishop's voice, as striding suddenly forward he stood between them. "Away with you, presumptuous rascal, before I mince your impertinence as it deserves."
"O father, father!" she entreated; "do not speak so; do not be angry, remember we have known each other almost from childhood."
Henry Sherston stood proudly erect and looked the bishop full in the eyes, "Of course, my lord," he said firmly, "you consider me deserving of your wrath, but recollect I am a gentleman's son."
"How dare you bandy words with me, sir?" roared the enraged prolate. "But I shall not condescend to argue with you. Fortunately for you, you are leaving the place, had it been otherwise you should have been turned away."
"It is ungenerous of your lordship thus to assail my weakness," said Henry Sherston, sadly, "yet never mind. Farewell, Miss Winthrop" and raising his hat, the bank clerk walked onwards. But he cast a painfully ed glance back at the girl which nerved her to desperation, and springing after him ere her father could detain her, she caught his hand and looking earnestly into his face, said:
"Henry, wherever you may go, always remember Constance Winthrop."
"Great heavens!" shouted the bishop.
"Yes, father, before he leaves this place forever, I tell you, I love Henry Sherston." * * * *
I had been singing in the French capital and from there passed on to the scene of some of my earliest successes, La Scala, Milan, which was then occupied by a kind of "scratch" company, foremost among whom was a countryman of my own, known as Signer Cortoni, who had lately gained fame on the Italian stage.
I was more than pleased to learn this of one in whom I took great personal interest, and for whom on several occasions I had, as it were, stood lyrical sponsor. Among my friends then in Milan the few days preceding my reappearance at La Scala passed pleasantly away and the chief of my special intimates was one Dr. Fraser, a good-natured young fellow from "over the border," with a certain shrewd humor about him.
He was liberal in money matters, but to pay a single penny beyond the actual sum due for a debt he over obstinately declined. In all ways Angus Fraser was most estimable; his wit was perhaps lacking in Hibernian sparkle, but though slow it was sure. He said once during a dinner at the embassy: "So much has been spoken in praise of Dublin car drivers that I suppose it is only there 'Carmen' can be played or sung in perfection."
On the last night of Signer Cortoni's engagement I occupied a quiet seat in the stage box. "Sonnamabula" being the opera, its light music suited him admirably, and he excelled in mezzo coloring. At the end of the first phase, which he sang "compassionately," some commotion in a neighboring box, and ascertaining that a young lady had fainted I went round with the object of offering assistance.
She was a pale-faced, fragile girl, and her mother seemed a weak, nerveless woman. Accompanying them to their carriage, she told me her daughter had for some time been subject to fits of melancholy. She had been ordered to Italy for change, and as she had a passion for music she had been taken to the opera as a last resource.
Early the following morning Dr. Fraser called upon me.
"My dear Hooves," said he, "you have rendered a signal service to a patient of mine."
"Of yours?" I echoed in surprise.
"Yes, the young lady you gave assistance to last night is a source of no little concern to me. She and her mother speak warmly of your kindness. Do come ever with me and call upon them."
"With pleasure," I answered; "but who are they?"
My friend entered into a long statement of the circumstances of the case, and ended by saying if her tendency to melancholia cannot be cured it will undoubtedly prove fatal in a short time.
However, I found myself talking to the girl's parents, and it seemed to me that her father, though apparently a brusque, harsh-natured man, felt his daughter's condition far more acutely than did her weak, insipid mother.
"Oh," he said to me almost piteously, "I would willingly renounce all I possess could I recall the past, and see my child happy once more."
And taking Fraser and myself into his confidence, he told the whole story of the why and wherefore of his daughter's state of despondency, which change of scene and traveling could not alleviate; nay, it even seemed more pronounced after listening to "Sonnamabula" the previous night.
The old man's story surprised as much as it interested me, and on leaving the hotel in company with Fraser his answers to certain questions of mine confirmed a decision I had already come to.
"Angus," I declared, "I'll cure this girl yet."
"You?" he said, surprised.
"Yes, I make no pretensions to medical lore, but if you can help the poor girl in any way, I shall only be too happy."
"But how shall I get the fees?" laughed I.
"My dear Hooves," he said seriously, "it is not a trivial matter. If we can do little to arrest; but if you can alleviate her condition in any way, do so for heaven's sake."
"When shall you call upon them again?"
Well, say tomorrow, Frank, and let me come with you. "Agreed, my dear friend," said Angus, and a thousand thanks, I am deeply interested in her case. Conombor, Milo is now only a child. That night I slept little, but thought of the past, and of the checkered ways of life; and the next day, accompanied by kind-hearted Angus, another friend, I visited the family. The parents drew us into the drawing room, and the girl, who seemed weaker than ever, lay upon a couch.
After we had exchanged salutations, I said: "Permit me to introduce Signor Cerleton." Why, frankly," cried the astonished father, "It is - " "Henry Sherston!" passionately exclaimed the poor invalid, rushing into the outstretched arms of the supposed signor.
By far the most astonished and delighted of all was the solidly-built clerk. It was the realization of his life dream, a dream that he had never dared to hope might come true, and there is now no happier couple than Henry Sherston and his wife, Constance Winthrop.
He Would Have SAVED: His Threats
The Hon. George D. Ilsley of Houlton saw General Butler over at Poland Spring Sunday and he accidentally came into close proximity to him in the crowds on the island, says the Houlton Journal. Mr. Ilsley was as good a soldier as ever went to war, and besides getting a full dose of camp life and service, he got eighteen months of short rations and hard bedding in rebel prisons. Finding himself near General Butler and finding the old gentleman cordial and good-natured, he said to him that he supposed he owed his life to him. General Butler wanted to know how. Mr. Ilsley called to his mind the time when the commandant of a certain southern prison was going to hang a lot of the union prisoners. At that time General Butler had Fitzhugh Lee and some of the other southern leaders in his keeping. The reported outrage to northern prisoners fired Butler's sense of temporal retribution, and he threatened to string up his prisoners if a single union prisoner was hanged. "I was one of those union prisoners," said Mr. Ilsley, "and I reckon that you saved my neck." The eye of General Butler lighted up wonderfully. He lifted his chin, looked at Mr. Ilsley and then said with energy: "I'm glad to know you, sir, and I say to you today that I well remember that occasion, and that, by thunder, I would have strung 'em up and left 'em hanging to this very day if they had done what they said they were going to do."
Valuable Silver Mines
An Australian widow with the income of $15,000 a year is the fashionable sensation in London. Her story illustrates what can be gotten out of a silver mine in New South Wales. The lady's husband paid $150,000 for certain shares in this mine. When he died not long ago, the shares were comparatively valueless, and he thought he was leaving his young wife in destitution. Shortly after his death, the shares rose suddenly to a price so marvelous that the widow sold one-half of her shares for 100,000, and is now receiving $10,000 annually for the other half.
An Australian View
Colonel Morgan, at one time consul general to Australia, says the New York Tribune, gives many a merry half-hour to his friends with recollections of his life there.
"You can imagine the opinion the Australians have of us," said Colonel Champlin the other night, "for at a banquet I gave to commemorate a national holiday, one of the natives came up, and pressing me cordially by the hand, said: 'Colonel Morgan, sir, I am delighted to grasp the hand of a man who represents a country where there are no gentlemen.'" | 40 |

For six sureesslvo wcolts Tun Soxruv BEE
lius coutnlncd n chapter on the Oiiutha flro
department. Its history and tlio history of
the various houses from the orgimlziitlou of
tlio old Pioneer hook and liulder contpnny ,
mvny back in ISM , down to the preicnt tins
been traced. The roster of names of the men
whoso efficiency , promptness and Intelligence
give Omalm n llro protective service equal to
that of many cities with twice the facilities
has been given. The various houses with
their Jlre-llBhtliiR appliances , their electric
machinery and their magnificent horses have
been described. The flro and police alarm
system and the man who presides over them
have come in for their share of credit In plac
ing Omaha where she Is , today from n lire-
man's standpoint ono of the bout protected
cities on the continent , and , Incidentally , the
lire reporter and Ins work , Important adjuncts
to the department have been touched upon.
To summarize : Omahu has six llro houses
with tlio latest style of time-saving appli
ances mid line horses and wagons ; two pri
vate lire companies which are ready at n
moment's notice to render assistance ; u full
supply of lire alarm boxes : n waterworks
system with a capacity of ir > ,0X ( > ,000 gallons
furnishing n pressure of 1UO pounds to the
inrh in the center of the city , and from 00 to
bO pounds in the outskirts ; lit ; ! ) llro hy
drants ; magnificent chemical engines and
hook and luddi-r trucks and n staff of llromcn
ready and willing to encounter any danger In
the performance of their duty.
All this , however , would amount to noth
ing without u capable head u chief engin
eer as ho was called in old times who never
hesitates nor fullers , never shrinks from
work , is independent and fearless , who pos
sesses the rare combination of good Judgment
and force of action and who knows , in any
emergency , exactly what to do , when to do It
and how to do It. Such n head the Omaha
department has in Chief J. .T. Cialligan.
"Jack , " as everybody calls him , wus born
in Tuunion , Mass. , in tlio your ISIS , and at
the ace of three years moved with his parents
to Chicago. When the war broke out , and
while ho was still u boy , he enlisted in the
Ninth Illinois cavalry with which ho served
creditably during the entire struggle.
At the close of tlio war ho returned to his
Chicago homo where ho remained till iNi" ,
when lie ciiinu to Omaha and procured work
at his trade In the Union Pacific shops.
His ciiroor as a fireman began September
M , 1803 , when he associated himself with the
band of old-timers who manned Fire King
No. 2 , and for a long time he pulled away at
the handle of that exaggerated loivo pump.
Along in November of 1S70 this company
purchased u steam engine which was the
proudest possession of the town , and Oalli-
gan was appointed stroker , a position which
-sounds small , but which , in those days ,
meant a great deal. Here ho remained for
two years , till , in 1STtho Union
Pacific purchased a steam engine
for the protection of their buildings
and named It the Uurnnt. Tills engine was
btitlioncd nt the shops and Jack Galligan was
requested to act as engineer of the new ac
quisition. Ho accepted the position , but re
tained his place with the Fire King Just the
Mime.
In 1ST I the Omnha lire department had ns-
sumcd shape-urn ! Ualligan was asked to act
as chief. IU > rccuguucd the honor paid him
as the leading fire-lighter of the city and ac
cepted the position , which ho retained until
the year 1877 , when he retired from the ser
'
vice' for ono year. The next year he returned
to liis vocation and at the imperative request
of the eitbcns and tlio lire department took
his place as chief and staid there till 18S13 ,
when ho retired for the second time.
Ho staid out this time for four years till
1SSO , when ho was airain called upon to fill
the position and has remained there ever
since.
Jack Oallignn is n born fire-fighter and
Omaha will lose a valuable man when he
finally retires from the struggle. The men who
work under him recognize his authority and
abilitv and none of them will hesitate to ac
knowledge that ho is first in promptness ,
first In energy and first in danger.
The Jack on the .streets , indolent , peed im-
tured and happy-go-lucky , known to every
body who knows Omaha , is very far re
moved from the chief at the lire , alert , keen ,
and full of energy , with his resonant voice
directing * Jie movements of firemen and po
licemen u.S \ imperatively ordering his men
into positions where their eyebrows scurch
or their skin blisters and lending the whole
force into the very mouth of hell. Many and
many a time ho lias crowded his force Oitiiut-
like into the jaws of death where their faces
were licked by the fiery tongues mid stood
behind them till the work was accomplished ,
only to acknowledge afterwards that lie was
soi ry for their sufferings anil to hear them
admit that if he had not done so the flames
would have leaped across an alley or street
and redoubled their domngc.
To appreciate the work ho lias done it is
only necessary to recall n few of the great
fires during his regimney as chiof. There
was the great blaze at the Boyil packing
house , four miles away , where the flames had
such a start and where $108,001) ) worth of
property was jeopardized and $72,0011 worth
saved ; the Her fire in January , 1871) ) , in the
block between Fanmni , Ilitrney , Thirteenth
mid Fourteenth streets , when tlio whole city
was threatened and only ono story was con
sumed ; the elevator company llro in issi ,
whew , in spite of the inllanmulo material ,
ono-thinlot'a ' . ' ) saved
- J''O.tKK property was ,
and the Ish & MeMnhon fire next to Milton
Kogors , where the heart of the city was
again threatened and the damage was nom
inal.
inal.Tho
The fires this year nro too well known to
need mention , that at the white lead works
and ' the chief .
Browning-King's being ones.
There were other fires , however , under
Oalligan's jurisdiction where moro than
property was at stake. In the late llro nt
Sixteenth ami Howard streets the
lives of dozens of people hung
In the balance and only the prompt
action of the do [ u'tment saved them Just
across the street , a year or so ago , was u
similar case where the ladders brought down
the tenants of the third floor. At the Es
mend hotel tire the entire lower stories were
in flames and the smoke was pouring up
wards when the ladders arrived.
Those are only a few of the cases whcro
Omaha's llro department has saved life and
property , and generally Jack CJnlllgan lias led
the forces.
Many amusing stories mlelit bo told of the
chiefs early experience. There was a time ,
not so long ug.i , when after a llro the on tire
department spent thrice the time cf extin
guishing the lire in refilling the cisterns , and
then during the old volunteer days what
times the boys had in springing the boxes for
the fun of witnessing an exhibition run.
Ciallignn finally got tired of this and Invented
a detector , which put an end to tlio sport , but
spoilt many an exhilarating turnout of tlio
two hundred odd volunteers with their carts.
\Vlth all the dangers he has braved , all the
tires he has attended , Chief Ualligan has
boon singularly fortunate in escaping serious
Injury. Ho has had several narrow escapes ,
however. Five years ago ho fell through un
elevator shaft in the city stoani laundrv ,
striking on a floor thirty-three feet below. Ho
has been twice thrown from his buggy while
running at break-neck speed , but was never
laid up for moro than a few days from any of
his accidents.
In speaking of the department ho modestly
says ho is satisfied , but that if two llrcn were
to occur ut once the organization would bo
hampered. Ho wants a n&w central station.
This request ho has made in his jx'jwt annu
ally for fifteen yours.
The strength of the department hosums up
under thrcu heads u good alarmsystomgood
horses and n sut of men who are accurate In
gutting at the boxes and prompt in gutting to
work and buck to the houses.
In the same chapter with the chief , his
driver , Uoorgo Hiako , is worthy of mention.
Next to Cialllgan , lie Is the oldest man In the
service , having come in about 11 ftocn years
ugo , and moat of the time has tilled the j > o l-
tton of driver. Ho first drove a stoamortlion
u hook and ladder truck , and , for the past
SDven years , has held the | K > iltlon of chief's
driver. He lias , of course , hud his narrow
. slight accident ) ! , but they have
been few mid far between mid ho has Abund
antly earned the reputation ho has of being
the most careful driver In the service.
Two other r.nmcs must bo mentioned to
complete the roster of those who give Omnha
her flro protection. ! ) They nro the two
assistant chiefs , O. , A. Sailer and
.7. .T. Barnes. Suitor Jotrtod the department
In 1870 with old No. 3 in the llro service.
After n service of three months he was made
stoker of No. 3 In tfw paid department , a
position which ho he.ld for two years and n
half , when the cnptnlii 'resigned nndhouriu
advanced to the posltlondiit the same time
being made superintendent of tlio new llro
alarm system. When thJ waterworks were
put In ho was rnndo second assistant and on
the appointment of Galligan ns chief , first as
sistant. Ill common inrlanco , Snlter "at
tends strictly to hi * knitting" and the emer
gency has not arisen which can rattle him.
Mr. Barnes Joined No. - volunteer llro com
pany as pipeman at the age of seventeen. Ho
was subsequently appointed to the position of
second assistant foreman. Ho remained In
Iho volunteer service until 1SSM , when ho en
tered the regular paid department , where
eighteen months' service gave him the post-
tlon of captain of Hook and ladder No. 1 and
subsequently that of second assistant chief.

The soldier who never took part in a battle
Gains honor for courage which never was

But ho who has stood whcro the musket balls

Is fitter to boast of his powers of endurance , '
May tell of the hardships of days that are
past.
He conquered the trials , ho has the assurance
Of marching 'ncath victory's banner nt last.
And so 'tis with him who has passed through
the fire
Of earthly ambition , and passion , and love ;
Who bus crushed out the life of each sinful

And fitted his soul for the glories above.

and tlio owners llnd a morbid pleasure in
looking at them and making thmm gay with
ribbons.
In the carefully constructed nurseries of
New York not a corner is tolerated or an
angle permitted to go unturned against which
babv can do himself bodily injury. The room
itself is rounded into an oval or octagon , the
window ledges slope , the door knobs nro be-
buyond reach and close with a spring , and
the furniture is bent birch , bird's-eye maple
or some light finished wood , with every post ,
side and rung rounded like a spindle.

If Mr. Stanley and his wife over quarrel ,
it is quite possible that they will carry the
war into Africa.

She may bo Willing , but the Inference is that

Mi's. Henry Mullen of Middleton Corners ,
O.lms given birth to n second pair of twins
within a year. It is just comical to see Mullen
stalk around tlio Corners.
An extract from n parish magazine in Eng
land rcails thus : "Unmarried workers are
requested not to marry for some little time.as
wo cannot afford to lose their services , as wo
have lost many lately. "
It does not follow that because Mr. Stanley
is to bo ni'irried ho has rosolv.ed not to return
to Africa. In both Sir Samuel Baker's ex
peditions ho wus accompanied by Lady
Baker , and twice her shrewdness saved tlio
expedition.

FROM NOON'TILL ' EARLY MORN ,
How a Boasting Day anil Night Are Passed
in Omaha ,
THE CITY UNDER THE SUN'S ' RAYS.
Hmv tlio Cooling ; llrci'/.os of Night
Draw Forth Men ntul Women uml
the Vnrlcil Sight * They See
Upon the btreels.
It Is a hot night in Omalm.
All day long the scorching rays of a pitiless
sun have beaten down upon the panting ,
shrinking city. Bnck walls mid pavements
Imvo absorbed the llery Hood till they feel
Hko heated iron. Men and women have sat
In their offices punting , fanning mid viciously
lighting the swarms of Hies whoso feet for
the day seem to have been furnished with
microscopic hooks and claws for the torture
of steaming humanity. Noiv and then a
gust of wind , like the breath of u furnueo.has
swirled up a cloud of dust to filter It down
coat collars and Into cars and nostrils. The
sprinkling carts , whoso weary pilgrimage up
and down the streets nil the day has never
ceased.scem only to have made mutters worse
and ono could almost hear the hiss of the
spray as It struck the pavement and floated
off ngaln In vapor. Dripping street car
horses , urged by red-faced drivers ,
have toiled and struggled up the
long hills spiritless and wcurv. Style and
fashion have been forgotten ami the unfortu
nates who linvo been forced to walk the
streets have come so far In their shirt slet'.ves
with handkerchiefs about their necks and
slinking from corner to corner wherever they
could find n bit of u shadow. Volumes of
smoke from thesmeltlng works and the Union
Pacific shops and the other great factories
have made those who stop to think shudder
at the mental picture of the men away down
under ground , stripped lo the waist , black
ened with coal dust , slowly cooking for daily
bread.
Slowly the flaming sun has sunk through
Iho cloadless gray sky over in the west , leav
ing first the streets in shadow , then the low
buildings , but lingering on the roofs of the
loftiest buildings and throwing vellow shafts
*
across the river on the summits of the bluffs.
Deeper and deeper sinks the Herv ball , till
with a farewell shaft thrown at the tower tff
the high school , the sun has set , leaving the
western sky ablaze with a glory of crimson
mid gold and a hot day has faded into u hot
night.
People begin to swarm out into tlio streets
for a breath of air. White arms und neglige
shirts crowd Furniim street from the court
house down to Ninth street. Ono by om > , lights
glimmer from tlio windows of offices nnd
homes. Every porch has its group of gisslp-
ers. Streams of humanity are passing in and
out of the door of sodawater dispensaries , ice
cream parlors , beer saloons and every place
where tlilwt may bo quenched. The broad
sidewalks around the hotels-tho Murrav ,
Pnxton , Millard , Merchants' , Barker , CaseV ,
Windsor and all the rest of them are
crowded with armchairs and even- chair has
an occupant. The rotundas are deserted. On
every corner , groups of lliinnel-shlricd , yel
low-shod young bloods stand ogling the puss-
ing procession of white-robed women and
girls. Most of them will stand a second look.
Plump , rosy-cheeked , red-lipped , fresh and
cool , with the outline of a well rounded arm
showing through tlio gauzy sleeves in few
cities will u hot night bring out into the
streets such an aggregation of well developed
female beauty as in Omaha.
Along the railings on the corner of Fif
teenth and Farnum streets loiterers are
perched , talking politics , business , religion
and the weather.
The policemen on the beat hnvo a wilted
look and move along their beats la/.ily watch
ing the shifting crowd.
Clouds of insects hover around the electric
lights and unpleasantly buzz into the faces of
the passing pedestrians , calling forth now
and Urai little feminine shrieks of dismay.
Out at Jefferson square nnd on the high
school grounds , every available vard of grass
is occupied bv a lounger , white groups of
shouting children , undismayed bv any sort of
weather , rush in nnd out through the crowd
in piny.
There is a shrill strain of music near the
opera house. Two little itinerant musicians
have halted in front of the crowd with their
accordeon. They have the dark eyes and hair
of Italy , and are in tlio picturesque costume
of their native land , with bright , green silk
handkerchiefs bound over their foreheads und
streaming down their backs.
' Sho's my sweetheart ,
I'm her ln'ini ;
Shi-'s my Annie "
ring out the shrill , strained , childish voices ,
and then chop off suddenly us if the machin
ery had given out.
The white helmet of a policeman is in
sight and the smaller midget ducks through
the crowd as if the fates were after her.
SJDmvn at Fourteenth u wheezy "orgunctte"
is dolefully groaning out "See-saw , seo-saw ,
now were up and down , " with tlio blind
operator laboring away at the crank us if his
lifo depended upon it.
Two blocks further it Is , "A Spanish Cav
iller Stooil in His Ketrcnt , " in a shrill
nasal screech which almost spills ono's head.
On the corner of Thirteenth a fakir with
shoe-blacking which shines itself , under the
yellow flame of a gasoline lamp is tieing a
piece of rope into innumerable knots and
bawling out an ungranimaticnl dissertation
on "Lovely Woman mid Shoe-Blacking. "
Gradually the crowd thins out. At 10
o'clock the white dresses have gone und u
moderate percentage of tlio strollers nro
loud-voiced and u little unsteady in their
gait. The policemen nro steadily patrolling
their beats , and many of tlio chairs at the
hotels uro vacant. People uro going to bed
mid can bo seen everywhere leaning out of
the windows in their shirt sleeves. Now and
then u little gust of cool air rushes up the
street and the crowd bares Its head to
greet it.
Twelve o'clock strikes and the street begins
to look deserted. Groups of a do/ten or more
come from nil the saloon doors in various
stages of hilarity waking tlio echoes with
snatches of noisy song or noisier laughter.
Cubs are beginnlnng to llnd business and
are rattling hero and there over the pave
ment. The patrolmen nro alert now , and us
they move along their beats peer into the
alloys and test the doors.
Black clouds are banking up In the west
and the nir has the portentious , expectant
stillness which precedes n summer storm.
Ono by ono the stars are blotted out till the
whole sky is overcast. A blinding Hash of
lightning , u crash of thunder , and down
comes the ruin , washing the dusty pave
ments , cooling the heated walls and 'sluicing
the city into cool , refreshing sleep.
The storm rolls away us itcamonndtho
stars peep out again , but they look 'down on
u now world , cooled and refreshed.
Now thiH-o Is a clutter of hoofs down Six
teenth street , over the viaduct , and from
every direction ; tlio newspaper delivery boys
are coming in to their work.
A grayness creeps up In the east : birds
begin to twitter in tho.trees ; a inoi-lting-liinl
in a window over Ed Muurer's pours forth a
burst of song , and thp hot night is ended ; a
new day has dawned.
IMIOUIIUTION KAiaaCV.
lMtcuiii'riito | KniuitlcH Opposing ( lie

CASH- POINT , 111. , Juno ' . ' 2. To the Kilitor
of Tin : BIK : : Man is u physical , an intellL-cj-
tual , mid a moral being. It Is well under
stood that the muscles mid Iho mind must be
used Hint they may bo properly developed.
Were one to propose to produce u nation of
athlutes and iiilelleclual glunts by making It
impossible for men to use their muscles and
their minds ho would bo regarded us a fit
subject for un Insuno asylum. And yi-t pro
hibitionists would have us believe thai Iho
highest state of morals would bo produced by
making men's environments such that they
could not use their moral faculties. They say :
"It Is our duty to put temptations out of
men's way. " That Is , wo should so arrange
society that men could not do wrong. Tlu-y
seem not to know that were It Impossible for
men to do wrong It would likewise be impos
sible for them to do right ; that wllh < mt choice
act * could bavo no mural quality ; that with
out uu opportunity t > rhouhu bi-t wri-n right
and wrung inc'ii eould huvu no m < rul t hunic-
U-rs.
\Vb-'iiCiod created muu 1U put aim in a
garden to dross It and to keep It. Ho thus
made It man's duty to URO hi * muschvs and
his mind. Did not God also make it obllgu-
tory on man to use his moral faculties ) Ho
ccrtalnlr did when He commanded htm say-
lugs "Of the tree of knowledge of good aud
evil , thou shalt not cat of It. "
Hud the first pair nnd all their posterity hud
no choice between right and wrong It 1 * evi
dent that man could not hnvo slimed. There
would have liccn neither sorrow nor suffering
hi consequence of transgression. There
would have been no need of u Savior to make
an atonement for slu. Why then did an In-
linetely wise and benevolent God place man
In a state of probation ! Why did Ho give
man a moral law which ho might transgress )
"Ah. " "this . "
says ono , is u profound mystery.
There Is nothing mysterious nltoul It. Uod.
having created man with u mend nut uro and
having endowed htm with moral facultieswas
under Iho necessity wo speak reverently
of placing him under circumstances In which
ho could use his mural faculties and thus de
velop his moral nature. For Uod to Imvo endowed
dewed man its He did and then to have placed
him under cireumstunei's where ho could
have bad no use far the moral faculties with
which he had endowed him , would have been
us irrational as It would be to form an eye and
then plucu ils possessor whore there | s no
light.Where
Where ought man's liberty to choose begin ,
and where should It end ! uro questions which
tiono but the Creator could answer. Clod's
law dourly defines the.so boundaries. Man
has liberty to choose whether he will or will
not obey God's commands. H is wise and
right and just Hint man should have liberty
to this extent and no farther. Those who
say : "Man's liberty to choose ought not to
hnvo so wide a range , " in effect say : "I know
better than Clod does what should'bo the ex
tent of man's liberty to choose. " Prohibi
tionists would have us believe that it would
hi1 much better for the liuiima family if they
had no choice as to whether or not they
would obey the command of the Most High :
"Be not drunk. " They thus place themselves
in direct antagonism with Jehovah. Think
ye this Is u small mutter to manifest a spirit
which to all Intents und purpose * says : "Had
I the power I would dethrone the Sovereign
ofthounlver.se ; I am wiser than IIo.1
uTIuit it is the duty of Hum to obey every
command of Uod is a truth which none will
attempt to controvert. H matters not what
one's motives may be , it is morally wrong for
him to throw any obstacle In the way Of mankind
"
kind obeying a divine command. "Prohibi
tionists are laboring lo make it impossible
for men to disobey the command : "Be not
drunk. " They are therefore striving to make
it : iinpossiblo for men to obey this
command , for without choice there can be
no obedience. Prohibitionists are thus sin
ning against C5od. True , they verily helluvu
that they are doing ( < od service. So did
Saul when he was persecuting iho church ,
when ho was Iho chief of sinners.
Prohibitionists are laboring under the do-
'lusion that temperance would bo greatly promoted
meted by making it impossible for men to bo
intemperate.
Then they ought to know that temperance
is u virtue ; that virtue is tlio result of having
chosen to do right ; that were there no choice
there could be no virtue. They ought to
know that were it impossible for men to bo
dishonest they could not possess the virluo of
honesty ; that were it impossible for men to
bo Intemperate they could not possess the
virtue of temperance. Prohibitionists nro
therefore laboring to make it impossible for
men to be temperate instead of laboring In
the cause of temperance.
Present tlio foregoing arguments to anv
prohibitionist who is capable of understand
ing sound logic , and he will reply : "We uro
lighting the saloon , sir. " Strange , is it not ,
that if the saloon is what they are lighting
that neither the word saloon nor ils equiva
lent is found in tlio national platform of the
prohibition parly ! If they are not laboring
to make it impossible for men to obtain
intoxicants to use as a beverage , why does
their national platform demands that the
manufacture of alcoholic ! beverages shall be
prohibited us u crimof A saloon can no moro
exist without u patron than It could without
a liquor vendor. It requires at least forty
patrons lo support .1 saloon. If the saloon is
to bo permanently closed men must cease to
patronize it. What men have a right to pur
chase and consume someone must have a
right to sell. Prohibitionists say : "Tho man
who tempts another man to do wrong is u
worse man than tlio one who yields to the
tempter ; tlio liquor vendor is worse than the
drunkard. " According to this logic , the
man who tempts another to sell Intoxicants is
worse than Iho liquor vendor. Why not pun
ish men for purchasing liquor ! Why not
punish men for drinking alcoholic beverages (

SUPREME LODGE A.O.U.W.,
Proceedings of the Session Held in Boston
Last Week.
THE GREAT PYTHIAN ENCAMPMENT,
Entertainment Being Made by Milwaukee to Entertain the Visitors
The Elk and Lodge in Boston and Notes.
The supreme lodge, Ancient Order of United Workmen, commenced its eighteenth annual meeting at Boston on the 17th last. A full representation was present.
Charles E. Benson of Boston, grand master workman of the order in Massachusetts, welcomed the supreme lodge to the jurisdiction and was warmly thanked by Supreme Master Workman W. R. Burnham of Cedar Falls, Iowa.
Supreme Representative S. U. Pollen of Omaha, presented to the lodge a resolution of greeting to the supreme lodge passed at a regular meeting of all lodges in Omaha and South Omaha, on May 11.
The supreme master workman presented his report.
The formation of the grand lodge of the Dakotas at Huron, S.D., on August 21, 1899, was reported.
The situation in Ohio was reviewed at length. A member of the order in Hamilton county caused an injunction to issue restraining the supreme lodge from dividing Ohio into two districts, selling off Hamilton county by itself. The matter was argued in the common pleas court of Hamilton county and Judge Maxwell rendered an opinion making the injunction permanent. The court held that a removal of this character was a change in the fundamental principles of the order which the supreme lodge had no right to make without the consent of each member, as they must protect the property rights of the minority.
The report of the supreme recorder showed that the total membership on April 1, 1908, was 1,011, New York was at the head with a membership of 111,300, while Nebraska stood No. 8 with 675 members. The net gain for the year in the entire order was 17,010, and the average death rate was 9.1. The total income for the year was $6,847.18, and the total expenditures, $6,611.24.
The supreme master workman was instructed to authorize the formation of the grand lodge of Montana.
A strong attempt was made to lower the maximum age limit to forty-five years, but the committee on laws reported adversely on the move and its action was continued.
The representatives from Nebraska, California and Iowa, acting under instructions, presented resolutions setting forth the advisability of having a new ritual. The supreme master workman in his address touched upon the same subject. The matter was referred to the committee on ritual and a favorable report was returned and adopted. A committee was appointed to prepare a new ritual and present it to the supreme lodge at its next session.
After a protracted session in committee of the whole on the question of "maximum rates and relief law," the maximum rate of assessment in Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee was fixed at 10 to take effect July 1. This being the year in which the maximum rate of assessment is fixed, the supreme lodge fixed the rate for each jurisdiction, the maximum rate for Nebraska being fixed at 10.
Litigation in Ohio over the division of that state was ordered continued.
It was decided that it would be unwise to disturb the relations existing between the order and the electicians, but it was declared unlawful for a member of the order to connect himself with any society which may hereafter be organized which uses the name of the A.O.U.W. as a part of its name unless such society shall have obtained the permission of the supreme lodge for the use of the name.
The following officers were elected for the ensuing year and duly installed:
W. Warren Wilson, Detroit, S.M.W.; J. A. Kingsley, Helena, S.F.; J. E. Burr, Boston, S.O.; M. W. Sackett, Allegheny, Pa., S.K.; J. J. Acker, Albany, N.Y., S.U.; L. P.

The next session of the supreme lodge will be in Detroit on the third Tuesday in June, 1909.
South Omaha lodge, No. 600, elected officers last night as follows:
R. O. Illicker, past master workman; J. C. Graham, master workman; William H. Stensloff, foreman; J. M. Eversol, secretary; M. Gallagher, recorder; Jacob Jorkulek, treasurer; A. M.

Games of all kinds were arranged and the Seventh ward band led the entertainment by discoursing sweetest music during the entire day.
A. F. & A. M.

A German lodge is being organized at Lincoln. There are a large number of German citizens in that city, but they have never had a lodge in which the ritual was worked in their mother tongue. District Deputy Dennis determined to supply this long-time want, and now has the matter well underway. The lodge will be instituted in about a week and will be a large one.
The city of Milwaukee will put on her best holiday attire during the week of July 7, in honor of the great crowd of members of the Knights of Pythias order, their families and relatives and friends, who will at that time visit the Wisconsin metropolis. Tuesday, July 8, will be the great parade day, when all uniformed knights and 10,000 unarmed members of the order will parade the principal streets of the city, starting at 1 p.m. In the morning at 10 o'clock, at the exposition building, the supreme lodge will be given a reception, at which addresses of welcome will be made on behalf of the state of Wisconsin by Governor W. D. Hoard; on behalf of the city of Milwaukee by Mayor George W. Peck; and on behalf of the Knights of Pythias order in the state by Grand Chancellor F. B. Hoskins of Fond du Lac. Supreme Chancellor Wan and others will make proper responses.
The competitive prize drills for divisions of the uniform rank will commence at Cold Spring park (the state fair premises) at 6 o'clock Wednesday morning, and will be continued during the week, the prizes offered aggregating $4,800 in value. On Wednesday afternoon the entire Pythias army will be drawn up in line at a grand field review, which will be the finest military display made in the United States since the war. A big prize band concert will be given Wednesday evening at Schlitz park, in which $800 worth of prizes will be competed for.
No finer display of fireworks was ever made in the west than will be given on Thursday evening, July 10. Thousands of dollars' worth of pyrotechnic designs will be set off, of the most elaborate character and the most attractive arrangement. For more than an hour the bombs, rockets, emblematical designs, and set pieces will be fired in artistic and promiscuous style, making an entertainment never surpassed in artistic excellence.
The ununiformed portion of the parade has been placed under the command of J. A. Waterous, who has issued a circular requesting grand chancellors to appoint someone to command delegations from their respective states.
The grand lodge of the B.P.O.E. convenes in Cleveland July 1. This is the first meeting of the grand lodge which has been held outside of New York, and will be an important one. Dr. W. H.

Fully 10,000 Odd Fellows are expected to be in the city upon this occasion, and great preparations are being made to provide suitable entertainment for the guests. Numerous committees have been appointed and no time will be lost in getting things in shape for a grand time.
Grand Master Burgers Instituted a Schoknei degree lodge, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, at Cortland, last Monday with forty-four charter members. The town was gaily decorated and at 9 p.m. a special train from Lincoln brought the grand master and the degree staff of Charity lodge No. 5 of degree of Hoboks, and quite a large number of other members who were met at the Union Pacific depot by the lodge of Cortland in full regalia, headed by the Cortland cornet band and marched to the Independent Order of Odd Fellows' hall, where the Hoboks lodge was instituted, and in the evening the full degree work was conferred on the floor by the Hoboks staff of Lincoln, and their work was completed and highly appreciated. After the work all retired to the opera house where a splendid repast was served by the ladies of Cortland.

"Because I notice how easy it is for you at church to put everybody to sleep." "The main point in the lesson today, children," remarked the superintendent of the Sunday school, "Is that everything that happens is for our good, and that in everything we should rejoice and give thanks.

FIRST AMONG FIRE FIGHTERS, The Twenty Years' Service of Chief Fire Marshal Galligan, SOME OF THE FIRES HE HAS FOUGHT, His Most Serious Accident, His Estimate of the Men of the Department and his two Assistants. For six successive weeks, The Sunday Bee has concluded a chapter on the Omaha fire department. Its history and the history of the various houses from the organization of the old Pioneer Hook and Ladder company, many back in 1869, down to the present has been traced. The roster of names of the men whose efficiency, promptness and intelligence give Omaha a fire protective service equal to that of many cities with twice the facilities has been given. The various houses with their fire-fighting appliances, their electric machinery and their magnificent horses have been described. The fire and police alarm system and the man who presides over them have come in for their share of credit in placing Omaha where she is, today from a fireman's standpoint one of the best protected cities on the continent, and, incidentally, the fire reporter and his work, important adjuncts to the department have been touched upon. To summarize: Omaha has six fire houses with the latest style of time-saving appliances and fine horses and wagons; two private fire companies which are ready at a moment's notice to render assistance; a full supply of fire alarm boxes; a waterworks system with a capacity of 60,000 gallons furnishing a pressure of 100 pounds to the arch in the center of the city, and from 60 to 80 pounds in the outskirts; 15,000 fire hydrants; magnificent chemical engines and hook and ladder trucks and a staff of firefighters ready and willing to encounter any danger in the performance of their duty. All this, however, would amount to nothing without a capable head, a chief engineer as he was called in old times who never hesitates nor falters, never shrinks from work, is independent and fearless, who possesses the rare combination of good judgment and force of action and who knows, in any emergency, exactly what to do, when to do it and how to do it. Such a head the Omaha department has in Chief J. T. Galligan. "Jack," as everybody calls him, was born in Union, Mass., in the year 1836, and at the age of three years moved with his parents to Chicago. When the war broke out, and while he was still a boy, he enlisted in the Ninth Illinois cavalry with which he served creditably during the entire struggle. At the close of the war, he returned to his Chicago home where he remained till 1869, when he came to Omaha and procured work at his trade in the Union Pacific shops. His career as a firefighter began September 8, 1863, when he associated himself with the band of old-timers who manned Fire King No. 2, and for a long time he pulled away at the handle of that exaggerated siren pump. Along in November of 1869, this company purchased a steam engine which was the proudest possession of the town, and Galligan was appointed stoker, a position which sounds small, but which, in those days, meant a great deal. Here he remained for two years, till, in 1870, the Union Pacific purchased a steam engine for the protection of their buildings and named it the Bummit. This engine was stationed at the shops and Jack Galligan was requested to act as engineer of the new acquisition. He accepted the position, but retained his place with the Fire King just the same. In 1871, the Omaha fire department had assumed shape; Galligan was asked to act as chief. He received the honor paid him as the leading fire-fighter of the city and accepted the position, which he retained until the year 1877, when he retired from the service for one year. The next year he returned to his vocation and at the imperative request of the citizens and the fire department took his place as chief and stayed there till 1883, when he retired for the second time. He stayed out this time for four years till 1880, when he was again called upon to fill the position and has remained there ever since. Jack Galligan is a born fire-fighter and Omaha will lose a valuable man when he finally retires from the struggle. The men who work under him recognize his authority and ability and none of them will hesitate to acknowledge that he is first in promptness, first in energy and first in danger. The Jack on the streets, indolent, peed imprinted and happy-go-lucky, known to everybody who knows Omaha, is very far removed from the chief at the fire, alert, keen, and full of energy, with his resonant voice directing the movements of firefighters and police alike imperatively ordering his men into positions where their eyebrows scorch or their skin blisters and lending the whole force into the very mouth of hell. Many and many a time he has crowded his force Omaha-like into the jaws of death where their faces were licked by the fiery tongues and stood behind them till the work was accomplished, only to acknowledge afterwards that he was sorry for their sufferings and to hear them admit that if he had not done so, the flames would have leaped across an alley or street and redoubled their damage. To appreciate the work he has done, it is only necessary to recall a few of the great fires during his regime as chief. There was the great blaze at the Boyles packing house, four miles away, where the flames had such a start and where $108,000 worth of property was jeopardized and $72,000 worth saved; the Her fire in January, 1871, in the block between Farnam, Burtney, Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets, when the whole city was threatened and only one story was consumed; the elevator company fire in 1885, when, in spite of the inflammable material, one thing lot's property was saved, and the Ish & McClellan fire next to Milton Rogers, where the heart of the city was again threatened and the damage was nominal. The fires this year are too well known to need mention, that at the white lead works and at the Browning-King's being ones.
There were other fires, however, under Calligan's jurisdiction where more than property was at stake. In the late fire at Sixteenth and Howard streets, the lives of dozens of people hung in the balance and only the prompt action of the department saved them. Just across the street, a year or so ago, was a similar case where the ladders brought down the tenants of the third floor. At the Eschmend hotel fire, the entire lower stories were in flames and the smoke was pouring upwards when the ladders arrived.
Those are only a few of the cases where Omaha's fire department has saved life and property, and generally Jack Calligan has led the forces. Many amusing stories could be told of the chief's early experiences. There was a time, not so long ago, when after a fire the entire fire department spent thrice the time extinguishing the fire in refilling the cisterns, and then during the old volunteer days what times the boys had in springing the boxes for the fun of witnessing an exhibition run. Calligan finally got tired of this and invented a detector, which put an end to the sport, but spoiled many an exhilarating turnout of the two hundred odd volunteers with their carts.
With all the dangers he has braved, all the fires he has attended, Chief Calligan has been singularly fortunate in escaping serious injury. He has had several narrow escapes, however. Five years ago he fell through an elevator shaft in the city steam laundry, striking on a floor thirty-three feet below. He has been twice thrown from his buggy while running at breakneck speed, but was never laid up for more than a few days from any of his accidents.
In speaking of the department, he modestly says he is satisfied, but that if two fires were to occur at once the organization would be hampered. He wants a new central station. This request he has made in his annual report annually for fifteen years.
The strength of the department sums up under three heads: a good alarm system, good horses, and a staff of men who are accurate in getting at the boxes and prompt in getting to work and back to the houses.
In the same chapter with the chief, his driver, George Lake, is worthy of mention. Next to Calligan, he is the oldest man in the service, having come in about eleven years ago, and most of the time has filled the position of driver. He first drove a steam-driven hook and ladder truck, and, for the past twenty years, has held the position of chief's driver. He has, of course, had his narrow escapes and slight accidents, but they have been few and far between and he has abundantly earned the reputation he has of being the most careful driver in the service.
Two other men must be mentioned to complete the roster of those who give Omaha her fire protection. They are the two assistant chiefs, O. A. Suitor and J. J. Barnes. Suitor joined the department in 1870 with old No. 3 in the fire service. After a service of three months he was made stoker of No. 3 in the paid department, a position which he held for two years and a half, when the captain resigned and Suitor was advanced to the position of assistant, the same time being made superintendent of the new fire alarm system. When the waterworks were put in he was made second assistant and on the appointment of Calligan as chief, first assistant. His common sense, Suitor attends strictly to his knitting and the emergency has not arisen which can rattle him.
Mr. Barnes joined No. - volunteer fire company as fireman at the age of seventeen. He was subsequently appointed to the position of second assistant foreman. He remained in the volunteer service until 1886, when he entered the regular paid department, where eighteen months' service gave him the position of captain of Hook and ladder No. 1 and subsequently that of second assistant chief. Chief Barnes manages to enjoy the life of a fireman and is faithful to his duties.
THE CONQUEROR.
Written for the life.
How grand is the soul that can defy temptation:
"I never will yield to you; seek not my fall."
Ow, grander than all things beside in creation;
Yes, higher and nobler and grander than all.
The soldier who never took part in a battle
Gains honor for courage which never was tried;
But he who has stood where the musket balls
rattle.
Has seen his brave comrade sink down by his side,
Is fitter to boast of his powers of endurance,
May tell of the hardships of days that are past.
He conquered the trials, he has the assurance
Of marching beneath victory's banner at last.
And so 'tis with him who has passed through
the fire
Of earthly ambition, and passion, and love;
Who has crushed out the life of each sinful
desire, ,
And fitted his soul for the glories above.

It is considered commonplace and stupid to wear a hat nowadays which matches the dress exactly; it must have a character of its own and the sleeves have the same requirement.
Skirts are getting longer and narrower all the time. Some of the big life plaids are made with gore, but scarcely enough fullness in the back to break the pattern of design.

Most of the new Paris hats have extensive brims and head bandeaux, but are worn well off the face as on the figure with loose cloak, and when strings come from the back, as they so often do, there is great likeness in these fire fronts to old coal scuttles.
Mrs. Carnegie, it is said, suffers excruciatingly from tender feet and finds it impossible to pass a barefoot. In her coaching trip through the British Isles, she carries a fund for charity shoes, which one of the guides distributes according to her direction.
Mrs. Walter Damrosch has taken up the study of musical literature. She carries a dainty tablet about and amuses herself by lining staffs and printing eighths, sixteenths, and thirty-seconds. The young and gifted bridegroom wrote to a friend: "She prints nicely, but I never have seen anything worse than her clefs."
A grim fashion which prevails extensively is to have a tiny platter of Paris skeletons, a regular "raw head and bloody bones," fastened with black and crimson ribbons to curtains, lambrequins, or under the chandelier. In nearly every fashionable boudoir, one of these most starting little figures can be seen and the owners find a morbid pleasure in looking at them and making them gay with ribbons.
In the carefully constructed nurseries of New York, not a corner is tolerated or an angle permitted to go unturned against which baby can do himself bodily injury. The room itself is rounded into an oval or octagon, the window ledges slope, the door knobs are beyond reach and close with a spring, and the furniture is bent birch, bird's-eye maple, or some light finished wood, with every post, side, and rung rounded like a spindle.

An extract from a parish magazine in England reads thus: "Unmarried workers are requested not to marry for some little time, as we cannot afford to lose their services, as we have lost many lately."
It does not follow that because Mr. Stanley is to be married, he has resolved not to return to Africa. In both Sir Samuel Baker's expeditions, he was accompanied by Lady Baker, and twice her shrewdness saved the expedition.

During a married life of twenty-four years, Thomas Butler, of Taylorville, Pa., never failed to kiss his wife before going to work in the morning. Because he would not kiss her the other day, Mrs. Butler committed suicide by taking poison. She leaves nine children.
A census enumerator at Richmond, Va., has found a colored woman named Martha Gray who has thirty-seven children since 1880.

On the corner of Thirteenth, a fakir with shoe-blacking, which shines itself, under the yellow flame of a gasoline lamp, is tying a piece of rope into innumerable knots and bawling out an ungrateful dissertation on "Lovely Woman and Shoe-Blacking." Gradually, the crowd thins out. At 10 o'clock, the white dresses have gone and a moderate percentage of the strollers are loud-voiced and a little unsteady in their gait. The policemen are steadily patrolling their beats, and many of the chairs at the hotels are vacant. People are going to bed and can be seen everywhere leaning out of the windows in their shirt sleeves. Now and then a little gust of cool air rushes up the street and the crowd bares its head to greet it.
Twelve o'clock strikes and the street begins to look deserted. Groups of a dozen or more come from all the saloon doors in various stages of hilarity, waking the echoes with snatches of noisy song or noisier laughter. Cubs are beginning to find business and are rattling here and there over the pavement. The patrolmen are alert now, and as they move along their beats, peer into the alleys and test the doors.
Black clouds are banking up in the west and the air has the portentous, expectant stillness which precedes a summer storm. One by one, the stars are blotted out till the whole sky is overcast. A blinding flash of lightning, a crash of thunder, and down comes the rain, washing the dusty pavements, cooling the heated walls and sluicing the city into cool, refreshing sleep.
The storm rolls away as the sun comes out again, but they look down on a now world, cooled and refreshed.
Now this is a clutter of hoofs down Sixteenth Street, over the viaduct, and from every direction; the newspaper delivery boys are coming in to their work.
A grayness creeps up in the east: birds begin to twitter in the trees; a mournful hymn in a window over Ed Munger's pours forth a burst of song, and the hot night is ended; a new day has dawned.

CASH-POINT, Ill., June 2. To the Editor of The Brick Man: Man is a physical, an intellectual, and a moral being. It is well understood that the muscles and the mind must be used in order to be properly developed. Were one to propose to produce a nation of athletes and intellectual giants by making it impossible for men to use their muscles and their minds, he would be regarded as a fit subject for an insane asylum. And yet prohibitionists would have us believe that the highest state of morals would be produced by making men's environments such that they could not use their moral faculties. They say: "It is our duty to put temptations out of men's way." That is, we should so arrange society that men could not do wrong. They seem not to know that were it impossible for men to do wrong it would likewise be impossible for them to do right; that without a choice, act could have no moral quality; that without an opportunity to choose between right and wrong, there could be no moral characteristics.
When God created man, he put him in a garden to dress it and to keep it. He thus made it man's duty to use his muscles and his mind. Did not God also make it obligatory on man to use his moral faculties? He certainly did when He commanded him saying: "Of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it."
Had the first pair and all their posterity had no choice between right and wrong it is evident that man could not have sinned. There would have been neither sorrow nor suffering in consequence of transgression. There would have been no need of a Savior to make an atonement for sin. Why then did an infinitely wise and benevolent God place man in a state of probation? Why did He give man a moral law which he might transgress? "Ah," says one, "this is a profound mystery."
There is nothing mysterious about it. God, having created man with an end in view and having endowed him with moral faculties, was under the necessity (we speak reverently of placing him under circumstances in which he could use his moral faculties and thus develop his moral nature. For God to have endowed man with the moral faculties that he did and then to have placed him under circumstances where he could have had no use for the moral faculties with which he had been endowed, would have been as irrational as it would be to form an eye and then place its possessor where there is no light. Where ought man's liberty to choose to begin, and where should it end? Are questions which only the Creator could answer. God's law decisively defines these boundaries. Man has liberty to choose whether he will or will not obey God's commands. It is wise and right and just that man should have liberty to this extent and no farther. Those who say: "Man's liberty to choose ought not to have such a wide range," in effect say: "I know better than God does what should be the extent of man's liberty to choose." Prohibitionists would have us believe that it would be much better for the human family if they had no choice as to whether or not they would obey the command of the Most High: "Be not drunk." They thus place themselves in direct antagonism with Jehovah. Think ye this is a small matter to manifest a spirit which to all intents and purposes says: "Had I the power I would dethrone the Sovereign of the universe; I am wiser than God." It is the duty of man to obey every command of God is a truth which none will attempt to controvert. It matters not what one's motives may be, it is morally wrong for him to throw any obstacle in the way of mankind obeying a divine command. Prohibitionists are laboring to make it impossible for men to disobey the command: "Be not drunk." They are therefore striving to make it impossible for men to obey this command, for without choice there can be no obedience. Prohibitionists are thus sinning against God. True, they sincerely believe that they are doing God service. So did Saul when he was persecuting the church, when he was the chief of sinners.
Prohibitionists are laboring under the delusion that temperance would be greatly promoted by making it impossible for men to be intemperate.
Then they ought to know that temperance is a virtue; that virtue is the result of having chosen to do right; that were there no choice there could be no virtue. They ought to know that were it impossible for men to be dishonest they could not possess the virtue of honesty; that were it impossible for men to be intemperate they could not possess the virtue of temperance. Prohibitionists are therefore laboring to make it impossible for men to be temperate instead of laboring in the cause of temperance.
Present these foregoing arguments to any prohibitionist who is capable of understanding sound logic, and he will reply: "We are fighting the saloon, sir." Strange, is it not, that if the saloon is what they are fighting that neither the word saloon nor its equivalent is found in the national platform of the prohibition party! If they are not laboring to make it impossible for men to obtain intoxicants to use as a beverage, why does their national platform demand that the manufacture of alcoholic beverages shall be prohibited as a crime? A saloon can no more exist without a patron than it could without a liquor vendor. It requires at least forty patrons to support a saloon. If the saloon is to be permanently closed, men must cease to patronize it. What men have a right to purchase and consume someone must have a right to sell. Prohibitionists say: "The man who tempts another man to do wrong is a worse man than the one who yields to the tempter; the liquor vendor is worse than the drunkard." According to this logic, the man who tempts another to sell intoxicants is worse than the liquor vendor. Why not punish men for purchasing liquor! Why not punish men for drinking alcoholic beverages?

in the United States and Canada to Mil
waukee and return via the Chicago ,
Milwaukee & St. Paul railway at half
rates.
As its name indicates the Chicago ,
Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is the
direct route to Milwaukee , and as the
camp ground for tlio Uniformed Knights
( to winch point cars and trains will bo
run through without transfer ) is located
directly on this line , it will bo seen that
the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul rail
way has great advantage over other
routes which are unable to furnish sucli
facilities , and visiting Knights , their
families and friends should bear this
in mind when purchasing excursion
tickets.

Joseph Ilnwortli and his company of play
ers will appear nt Boyd's on Thursday aim
Friday of tlio coming week. Mr. llaworth
will bo .seen for the llrst time hero in Steele
Mnckayc's roniniiUc drama , "Paul Kauvar. "
If all reports bo true , it is one of the strong
est dramas yet written by an American
dramatist. In the leading role Mr. llaworth
does superb work. His great success had
much to do with the great run of ' - ! ( ) nights
which the drama had in New York. llaworth
is said lo possess all the < | ualitications of a
great actor , lie is young , handsome , pos
sesses a rich , powerful voice anil is gifted in
other ways. It is seldom indeed that one finds
so many peculiar gifts possessed by one man.
In Paul Kauvar Mr. llaworth has made
tlio distinct success of his career. For over
Iwo hundred nights ho played the part at the.
Standard theater in New York City with the
record of having never missed a performance.
At present ho is on his way to Now York
after a most prosperous season in tlio west.
When Air. llaworth appeared at tlio Hash
street theatre in San Francisco it was im
possible for two weeks to ob
tain oven staiidlng room in the
theatre live minutes before the rise
of the curtain. This has been the rule every
where. The past week at the Tabor Grand
in Denver has bocn the largest week in the
history of the theater. The play will receive
a handsome mounting hero. The dream of
anarchy and tlio great mob scone cannot af
ford to 1)0 ) missed. They are described as
being two of the most remarkable scenes cvir
prcicnted to the stage. 1,1 r. Tt.iworth will
have the support of a line company of play
ers. They include Miss Uacholle , Miss
White , Miss Timbermau , three famous stage
beauties ; Mark Lynch , n tine young actor ;
Joseph Uansome , ( Jem-go Con way , M. J. Kenton -
ton and others. The engagement is for two
nights only and seats should be secured well
in advance.
The coming wcflc closes tlio season nt tlio
B'.k'ti iiiusce and the management of the popu
lar family resort under William Luwlor.
That Mr. Lawler's management has been
successful every one knows , and as a titling
close to a long list of pure entertainments
Mr. Tjiiwlor presents this week the most in
teresting show of tlio entire season.

Special prices on low shoes and Oxford ties until July 4. HAYDEN BROS., Dry Goods and Carpets. Ornamental Excursions to Yellowstone National Park and Other Western Resorts. The Union Pacific, "The Overland Route," proposes to run, on July 20, a grand excursion from Omaha to Yellowstone National Park, Great Shoshone Falls, Idaho, Ogden, Salt Lake City, Garfield Beach, Denver, Clear Creek Canon, the famous Loup, and other points of interest. The Union Pacific will furnish six horse Concord coaches, which will carry the party from Beaver Canon, Idaho, to and through Yellowstone National Park. Those coaches will also be taken to Shoshone station and used for the ride to great Shoshone falls. At each stopping place, such as Ogden, Salt Lake City, Cheyenne and Denver, the coaches will be unloaded, and the tourists conveyed from the depot to the hotels. Afterwards, a ride to all points of interest in each city will be taken. From Beaver Canon to Yellowstone national park, the trip will occupy three days going, three days returning, and eight days will be spent in the park. Excellent tents and good equipment for camping out will be furnished by the Union Pacific, en route from Beaver canon to the park, and while in the park, the tourists will be quartered at the various hotels. The very low rate of $22.50 per passenger has been made from Omaha. This rate includes railroad, Pullman and stage fare, meals and hotel bills from the time of leaving Omaha until the return of the excursion, in all 80 days. Only thirty passengers can be accommodated, and as accommodations are limited, early application for same should be made, no one being accepted after July 20th. Unless 20 tickets are sold by July 20th, the excursion will be abandoned, and purchase money refunded immediately. In ordering tickets, send money for same by express, to Harry P. Dougal, city ticket agent, U.P.Ry., 1302 Farnam St., Omaha, Nebraska. While children will be allowed on this trip, still it is not advisable not to take them.

Orofjon and Washington.
Travel to the new empire of the northwest is now setting in with the approach of warm weather, and from the number of people traveling via the Union Pacific, "The Overland Route" to Oregon and Washington, it would seem that this line is the favorite for all classes of travel. Its facilities are unsurpassed, and its train service is all that can be desired.
By the operation of through Pullman sleeping cars, Pullman dining cars, Pullman colonial sleepers, free reclining chair cars from the Missouri river to Portland, and fast time, it is certainly the most desirable route from all points east to this new and growing country.
In fact, the Union Pacific is the most direct line to Denver, Colorado Springs, Pueblo, Trinidad, Ogden, Salt Lake City, Spokane Falls, Portland, Tacoma, Seattle, San Francisco and all California, Oregon, Washington and Puget Sound points.
Ticket agents in the United States sell tickets via "The Overland Route," and by applying to them or the undersigned any information relative to the Union Pacific can be obtained.

For this great occasion, excursion tickets will be sold from all principal points in the United States and Canada to Milwaukee and return via the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway at half rates.
As its name indicates, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is the direct route to Milwaukee, and as the camp ground for the Uniformed Knights (to which point cars and trains will be run through without transfer) is located directly on this line, it will be seen that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has great advantage over other routes which are unable to furnish such facilities, and visiting Knights, their families and friends should bear this in mind when purchasing excursion tickets.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. A Discussion on the Question of Appointing a Trust.
The question of appointing a county trust to succeed F. P. Kimmor occupied the attention of the county commissioners yesterday afternoon. Applications for appointment to the position were received from J. P. Skiers, George Hodgins and T. W. Spaulding. Mr. O'Keefe inquired who was to pay the trust. He said Mr. Kimmor had been appointed by the city as a druggist at $5 per month, and the county had paid him $51 as a salary. He was not in favor of hiring a clerk to act as druggist.
The matter was referred to the committee on charity.
J. J. Maloney stated that he had a man at the poor farm who had lost both his feet, and wished that he be supplied with artificial feet so that he might earn his living. The matter was referred to the committee on charity.
The county treasurer was allowed a warrant for $10,000 for redeeming county bonds and paying interest.
The assessor of the First ward and his assistant protested against the action of the ward in settling the claims of assessors, complaining that the assessors of the Third and Seventh wards had been allowed more than those of the First ward.
A discussion on this point ensued between Messrs. O'Keefe and Burdin on the question of allowing assessors the same amount. The matter was referred to the committee on finance.
Jerome C. Pontzke was appointed constable in the Fourth ward, vice Peter Shurkey, deceased.
Elli Johnson was appointed road supervisor for Waterloo precinct, vice S. Hopper, deceased.
A resolution was introduced by Mr. Berlin and adopted, instructing the county auditor to prepare, as early as possible, a detailed statement showing the condition of the relationship between Douglas county and the city of Omaha.
The appropriation sheet containing the salaries for May of the assistant county attorneys was read three times and placed upon its passage. It carried with Correll, O'Keefe and Turner voting for it.
S. I. Pope of Chicago, who has the plumbing contract of the county hospital, was present and asked the board to allow him to use more than one kind of packing on the steam pipes. The board instructed him last fall to use Manville packing, and claimed that this action had caused the manufacturers of that covering to increase their price, and he asked the board to allow him to substitute another kind of packing from the Chicago_proof manufacturing company's mineral wool covering, which he represented was of the same grade, in order to have competition on the price.
After a short discussion, the board allowed the contractor to use either covering.
Permits.
Orchids to be held were usual by the following by the superintendent of twenty-five years yesterday:
George V. Pledger, two-shire and half-breed relief; Hartley at forty-five - sixty million Hartley High County. William Brown, two-mile dual diamond hunting; North Twin City, one thousand William Brown, first forty-five-year double diamond drinking. East North Twin City - sixty million and the highest-value two-shire reverse in production. Private Field, forty-five - sixty million. Second Guard company, two-shire reverse in production. Fourth, sixty million. Today's WATCH HIGHLIGHTS:
A Word to the People of Omaha and Vicinity.
When it has come to our notice from reliable sources that some of our competitors are jealous of our great success and the ENVY we enjoy for being OMAHA'S LOWEST PRICE SHOES, dealers have circulated the
FALSE REPORT
that owing to the burglary at our store on Friday night, whereby our two elegant gold watches were stolen, we would withdraw same from the list of presents we promised to give away to our customers. We take this means to refute all such
CONTEMPTIBLE AND FALSE ASSUMPTIONS.
Immediately after hearing of the burglary and our loss, we purchased a FAKE SIMILIE of the stolen watches from Messrs. Max Meyer & Co., and here with we publish a confirmation of said purchase, which is self-explanatory:
Office of Max Meyer & Co., Omaha, June 28, 1890.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Messrs. Zunder & Harris have this day purchased of us one lady's solid gold watch, with diamond setting, and one gentleman's solid gold watch, both of which are exact duplicates of the watches previously sold to Zunder & Harris for their presentation shoe sale.
Very respectfully,
MAX MEYER & CO.
Notwithstanding our popular low prices, as an extra inducement and appreciation of your liberal patronage, in addition to the two line gold watches we shall give away Monday evening, July 7, the following useful and valuable presents:
1 quadruple silver-plated tea set consisting of five pieces.
1 sewing machine with all attachments.
1 oxidized silver piano lamp, complete with shade.
1 music box with chimes, which play eight selections.
1 mantel clock with French gilded dial and bronze ornament.

Joseph Haworth and his company of players will appear at Boyd's on Thursday and Friday of the coming week. Mr. Haworth will be seen for the first time here in Steele MacKay's romancing drama, "Paul Kauvar." If all reports be true, it is one of the strongest dramas yet written by an American dramatist. In the leading role, Mr. Haworth does superb work. His great success had much to do with the great run of "star nights" which the drama had in New York. Haworth is said to possess all the qualifications of a great actor, he is young, handsome, possesses a rich, powerful voice and is gifted in other ways. It is seldom indeed that one finds so many peculiar gifts possessed by one man.
In Paul Kauvar, Mr. Haworth has made the distinct success of his career. For over two hundred nights he played the part at the Standard theater in New York City with the record of having never missed a performance. At present, he is on his way to New York after a most prosperous season in the west. When Mr. Haworth appeared at the Bath street theatre in San Francisco, it was impossible for two weeks to obtain even standing room in the theatre fifteen minutes before the rise of the curtain. This has been the rule everywhere. The past week at the Tabor Grand in Denver has been the largest week in the history of the theater. The play will receive a handsome mounting here. The dream of anarchy and the great mob scene cannot be missed. They are described as being two of the most remarkable scenes ever presented to the stage. Mr. Haworth will have the support of a fine company of players. They include Miss Rachelle, Miss White, Miss Timberman, three famous stage beauties; Mark Lynch, a fine young actor; Joseph Hansome, Jemmy Conway, M. J. Kenton, and others. The engagement is for two nights only and seats should be secured well in advance.
The coming week closes the season at the Bijou circus and the management of the popular family resort under William Lawler. That Mr. Lawler's management has been successful everyone knows, and as a fitting close to a long list of pure entertainments, Mr. Lawler presents this week the most interesting show of the entire season.

Qualified for Princeton.
Yesterday four of the highest school graduates, George A. McElaguen of the class of '89, Laramie Denise, Will S. Rogers, and Paul H. Ludington of the class of '90, received a letter that made their hearts glad.
Some time ago these young men forwarded a request to the faculty of Princeton College asking for the list of candidates upon which those are desirous of catering the freshman year. The lists were sent to Gov. William R. Henderson, and before him, the examinations were conducted.
The examinations were concluded and the papers forwarded to the college for inspection.
Yesterday Mr. Henderson received a letter from H. N. VonDyke, registrar of the college, and in it he said:
"Yours, of June 18th, together with the papers of the four candidates, received. All four passed in all the subjects without conditions. No other school has such a good record this year."
At this time, the young men have not fully decided, but they are of the opinion that they will enter the next school year of the college.

"Speaking about ball players' ages , " said
Dave Howe to the writer ono evening during
the Denver's recent trip hero , "who would
you say was the oldest player on the diamond
toda/ . "
"You are no spring chicken yourself Dave , "
was the answer , "but of course there are a
score or moro older than you.1. '
"Me , " Intercepted the big first baseman
with considerable acerbity , "In heaven's
name , who do you tuko mo for Methuselah I
How old am II"
"Well David , I saw you play ball about
sixteen years ago , nnd you wcro as big and as
ugly and a good deal better ball player then
than you nro now , and I should judge that
you uro about thirty-eight years of ago. "
"Thirty-debt centuries you might as well
putlt. No sir , I'm only thirty-two , and lam
two years older than my brother Jack of the
Buffulosnnd If you don't bcllovo it we'll send
for the funilly blblo and prove it. And you
never saw mo play ball sixteen years ngo.
You refer to the tlmo I suppose when the
Pcorias played the Cummitisville Blue StockIngs -
Ings nt Cincinnati , when Jack aud I were
loth with the Illinois tcamt"
"Correct. "
"I thought so. Well that was In the fall of
' 88 , so you sco you arc off your biiso exactly
four years. No sir. Sandy , I'll cross my
breast , I won't bo thirty-two until next Sep
tember , " and that bland , child-llko look came
in Dave's face , the look he always wears
when talking with the umpire just before ho
cries "play ball. "
Smooth man. that Dnvo Howe , and n great
general nnd ball player yet , no difference
what they sny.
"But the oldest man In the diamond today ,
that is what you ask , is It Duvol"
"Yes , who do you think Is the muni' '
"Either Jack Nelson of the Atlantic league ,
or Jim White of the Buffalo brotherhood
club. I remember when I was yet a barefoot
boy of gluing my eye to a kiiot-holo In the
fence at the old Forest City park In Cleve
land and watching the Deacon go through
the Highland lllug behind the plate , way
back In ' 70 or ' 71. Jim White , I would say ,
isn't n day under forty-seven , and yet 1 sco
his ngo stated frequently at'forty-.two. "
' Well , 1 think you are wrong. I don't
think Jim Is over forty , mid ho's worth sev
eral years work yet. "
"You make mo weary , Dave ; you ballplay
ers are all alike ; you are as frafd as a school
girl that somebody will find out your correct
age , and you couldn't tell the truth If you'd
try. The Hste of ball-players ages published
in lust week's Now York Sporting Times , so
far as the old veterans are concerned ,
Is simply preposterous , although Editor
Cnylor gives the alleged unto of their births.
The brotherhood is lull of patriarchs pusso
ball players who are now only making a bluff
nt ball playing , nnd It will only require this
ucnsoii to rclcguto them to the shades eternal ,
nave where they will occasionally crop out us
nn umpire. But the oldest active plavcr on
the diamond today Is unquestionably Deacon
Whlto. "
"Woes of the Tall-Kiider.
The tail-end team In n baseball race gener
ally gets it from "soda to hoek.1 ! . If there , is
any ill-luck to bo smeared over any team the
tuil-enders get It. Omaha and St. Paul nro
instances In the present Western association
contest. So far as individual strength is
concerned both of these teams compare fav
orably with the very best In the raco. Onn- '
ha surely Is the equal of any of thorn , either
Individually or collectively , and still she
looses. If rain falls in any city in the circuit
during ttio night before a gnmo in sufficient
quantities to flood the ball grounds , it is
ten to ono that it is in tlio city
where the tnll-endcrs * nro to
play. Of course they always get the worst
of the umpiring. That is as certain as death
or taxes. Ono reason for this is that tlio um
pire is less ufraid of tlio tull-cnd team than ho
is of one well up in the race , and is naturally
inclined toward adherence to the old saw ,
"never kick n man when ho's down , but hit
him with a club. " If the regular umpire falb
to show up It Is Invariably upon the grounds
of the tail-cmlers , under which circumstances
they are compelled by the rules to select un
Mmpiro from the ranks of the visiting club ,
who is scrupulously careful to give them the
worst of it. If u player gets lined for
kicking , It Is always one of the tail-end-
crs. In fact the tail cndcr gets the worst of
everything. Thov lese more gnmcs by a
slnglo run than nil the other teams combined ,
and then If there Is n railroad wreck within a
hundred miles of the city they are to play in
that day , of course they uro in It. Their star
twlrlor Is always sick , nobody goes to see
them play , they forfeit guarantees on no-
count of the inclemency of the weather , have
more hats stolen and meet with more general
cussed misfortune than ought to fall to the
lot of u dozen teams. Surely an awful hoodoo
dee rests forever on the tuil-cudcrs.
The Cause ot'Oiuiilins Defeats.
There's no use talking , the Black Sox can
not bo expected to win with any degree of
regularity until Manager Leonard discon
tinues changing the men about so much ,
The team contains regular men for regular1
positions nud they should bo played there or
not all. There has hardly been two con
secutive games this season with the men In
the same positions , und it is n wonder the
team has done as well as it has. Today It is
Urquuhart in the Held , tomorrow Moran or
Phulcn ; then Cunnvan appeal's on second ,
then back In the Held again ; Urquuhart on
first , then behind the bat ; Willis in the
middle gurden today , and In the box tomor
row , and so it goes. This was Slice's fault In
' 88. The team was played no two days n llko ,
and the consequence was tlio boys won about
every fourth or fifth gamo. The personnel
jjt-tho Omaha team just now is u strong one ,
niufTtlO men should ho played each accord
ing to hU Individual qualifications , Kearns ,
Camwan und Willis should bo kept uninter
ruptedly In the Held , and Uniutilmrt and
Moran required only to do the back-stopping.
Collins Is now In playing form , und there will
bo no occasion for continued experimenting
nt ' ml , and unless sickness or Injury
Intel i > oses It Is pretty snfo to say that the team
will bo played from this on as It ought to bo
played. If the management Is desirous of
cm tailing expenses they should decldo upon
Hlncs or Phulon us their general utility mail
and let the other go , without hesitation or
tiontlmeut. That's the way to run u ball
team.
Now Grounds for Next Season ,
Unquestionably this is the lust season the
gnmo will bo played ut the present park , as
President McCormlck has unalterably mudo
up his mind to secure grounds
within a shorter distance of the
center of the city at any cost. This Is
a wise determination , for were the grounds
located but half the dUtuuco from
the corner of Fifteenth und Furnnm that
they now nro , the attendance would bo
doubled. Such a change would do away with
all danger of fiilluro In taking Iu the gunrun-
f- too at iill biso
weak-day games , iu fact , ball
In Omaha would then bo in enterprise that
would attract the most liberal Investment.
McCormlck has not yet ivllnqulsed all hope
of securing the grounds on Nicholas street ,
between Nineteenth nnd Twentieth slreots ,
just north of the Omaha street railway com-
pany's now rawer houso. The fitting up of
these grounds would require the demolition of
or two , mid entail a vast
deal of expense , but the rovcnuo !
derived by reason of their Increased ,
accessibility would bo of such a
character us would offset nil this nt a very
early day In the season. Big crowds enhance
n ball game , just llko they do a horse race ,
theatrical pcrformanco or any other amuse
ment , and the patrons of the game nro all
anxious to liavd the management succeed In
securing grounds nearer the center of the
city. _
About the Ton in.
Wnlloy Andrews hasn't got his good eye
with him to nuv very considerable extent yet
this season. With men on bases ho cun bo
counted n sure out. This Is tough , but true.
Just wnlt , however , ho will get his optics on
the ball before long , nnd then the fences will
quiver.
Have you noticed what nil elegant bunt big
Mike Hfncs makes I Ho gets it down well ,
about half way between homo and third , close
along the line , and has but llttlo dlfllculty in
beating the ball to first. A bunted ball Is
really and truly the only sacrifice hit there is.
Pralso from Cnsar Is pralso indeed. An-
son says that "Omaha Is a regular factory for
shortstops. Last fall I pulled Jimmy Coonoy ,
the greatest of them all , with perhaps the ex
ception of Herman Long nnd Jack Gloss-
cock , from out their ranks , but they are mak
ing another out there this year In Joe Walsh ,
He's a treasure. "
Tom Kcarns , whllo ho ranks head and
shoulders above anv outfielder in the West
ern association , Is a sure hitter with men on
the bags , and ho never smashes her for much
less than a thrco-suckcr. Kearns is the Ufa
Of the team.
Dad Clarke 1ms not been In real prlmo con
dition yet this season , but ho Is working hard
to get there. Probably Dad's ' misfortune can
be accounted for by the fact that ho met a
wagon load of empty barrels on his way to
tlio opanlng championship game nt Denver
this springnnd yet the Onrahm lost. Clarke ,
you know , rates a load of empty barrels go od
fora win under any circumiUiiiccs , and to
pass a funeral menus defeat.
Cnnavan U growing bigger and bigger
every day , and will sooa bo a real man. And
then Jimmy is putting up n better game , too ,
it seems , with every additional day. Hois
almost dead sure to rap out a sufo hit when
he steps to tlio bat In the opening inning.
Everybody likes to see Tit Willis on the
bases. He's full of ginger nil the tlmo and
never gets glued to the bags. Tit's third
base steals are great.
Cleveland has been playing In rotten luck
all during the spring months , but ho is get
ting down to form now and will soon bo glor
ified as grcatlv as ho has been execrated. So
far as ability Is concerned , when In condition ,
ho has It with any player on the team. Mora
miraculous pickups or swifter , moro accur
ate throws than some of Ills , wcro never seen
on the diamond.
Billy Moran nnd Cornelius Urqunhart .nro
two of your right-minded young ; players.
They are hard students and promising play-
era , ; mil Intend to allow no opportunity to pass
that otters a chance of improvement. Neither
man has any bad habits and both keep good
hours. They are model ball players.
Pitcher Al'irtiii is the Sphinx of the team.
He has only spoken once or twice since ho
joined the Oiimhas , and some of the gang
say ho can hold his breath an hour.
Enough of Kittle and Colliu's piny has
not been seen yet to justify any comment.

The American Shooting nsiociution has
mudo a much demanded change in its rules.
It formerly limited the charge of smot in a 1--
gauge gun to Ijf , ' ounces , which was tlio cause
of much dissatisfaction with those sportsmen ,
who in keeping up with modern ideas regarding
trap shooting , had provided themselves with
the lighter nnd moro sportstnanliko weipoa.
The limitation to 1 ) g ounces was regarded as
a hardship , and in response to the general de
mand the association now permits the use of
IJi ounces in guns of any calibre.

Br.t.jWushIngton Is sweltering under n
mid-summer sun. Tho1 stutcsmcn nt the cup-
Itol arc In their summer clothes und every
man has hU recipe for keeping cool. 1 know
of u senntor who takes twclvo butlis n week
nt the government cxpcnso nnd there nro llf-
tccn members of the lower house who wear
seersucker coats mid flannel shirts. 1 visited
the National museum today to see the nppll-
nnccs which the people of the tropics have to
keep themselves cool. The Korean gentle
man has ti wlckcrwork shirt which keeps his
clothes away from the body and acts us a sort
of ventilator lying between his abdomen and
his gown. Ho has wicker cuffs which run
from his wrist to his elbow anil which are
made of the Hncst of stiff straw. Those keep
the alcoves nway from the person nnd the
Korean embassy at Washington Is the coolest
of all the legations. It 'is ' from these wi Uer
bustles worn over the belly that the Koreans
got their reputation of being such a fat race.
They nro fat , but not half so fat us Is sup
posed. It Is this wicker arrangement that in
creases their 'apparent ' ( xvoirdupolso , and as
fatness in Korea is u sign of wealth , there Is
no hesltuncy.shown by a thin man In trying
to make himself look like the fat mnn in the
dlmo museum. The Korean has the lightest
summer hat known to the world. It Is of the
sugar-loaf variety , Is made of horsehair and
it weighs but a few ounces.
The fan collection of the museum represents
all the countries of the cast. Even the Sand
wich islanders have fans and some of the
South sea malUens hldo their nudity behind n
fan made of fragrant grass ami not more than
six inches in diameter. The palm-leaf fans of
this country mid Europe arc all made at Can
ton In China and the Chinese nro
among the line fail-makers of the
world. During my trip' , arounil the world
I visited Peking and n number of
other Chinese cities , anil I found whole
streets devoted to the sitlb of fans and lan
terns. Swatoiv is a city lying on the coast
between Shanghai and Hong Kong , which is
noted for its llnq fans. 'Thcso funs are of line
paper stretched on a frame which curves at
the top and which thus produces u sort of bow
catching the wind nnd ' '
Making Them Delightfully Cooling.
The fans nro beautifully painted und the
pictures on them are th' < | b st exhibition of
Chinese fan art. Every Japanese imn and
woman carries a fan , and the fans which wo
got from Japan are of the cheapest variety.
In Japan the gentlemen usually use folding
fans , and they carry them in their bosoms ,
under their collars orjt'iclc into their girdle.
It is the ladies who use the flat fans , and it
would bo contrary to etiquette for a man to
appear on , the street with iv .fan , ' , that would
not fold up. Japan has its.fau etiquette , and
there is as much a language of the fan as a
language of flowers. The pretty Yum Yuins
of Tokio and Kiota oxproas through I'anning
what American lovers convoy by kissing , for
the hot osculation of America is unknown
among the Japanese cither in the summer erin
in the winter. The Japanese have autograph
fans us wo have , and many of the young people
ple make fan collections containing the signa
tures of their friends or versos of poetry writ
ten on them. Ono of the most striking char
acters of Tohlo is an old fan seller. She is u
woman of about eighty Who goes around with
fans and brooms nnd who cries her wares
from house to house.
An important cooling rccipo of the far cast
is the bath and the hotn bath Is taken by the
Japiiucso bcveral times a dav. The bathing
is done in the public bath rooms or in the
private tub and no sen i is used. Many.lap-
nncso are now parboiling themselves in water
raised to ISO0 Fahrenheit and the whole
family bathe In the sjamo tub. There Is u
model of one of thcso tubs at the National
museum and the average. Japanese bath tub
is about three feet high , oval in shape , nnd it
has iv llltlo furnnco with a stovepipe running
up above the top of thp tub set into one cud
of it. A board keeps this stovepipe from
touching the skin and ; a few moments will
heat the bath to boiling. The Japanese have
no false modesty as to the showing of their
person nnd it is not an uncommon thing in a
Japanese house to sco a lady at her bath , or
if you bo a guest to have one of the female
servants como In nnd

Carter Harrison of Chicago was much sur
prised at this during his stay in Japan and ho
scalded the Jlosh off his fat calves In jumping
into the tub to get out of the way of the al-
mond-oycd beauty who came in to assist him.
I know a wealthy man in Washington who
was traveling In Japan the sauio tlmo that I
was who could not got enough of thcso hot
baths and who tnado a number of trips Into
the Interior of the country In order that ho
might liavo them with all their old .Fapanc.su
flavor. In many of the public bath houses of
Japan both sexes ImUio together nnd
on a hot day of July or August they splash
nnd play with ono another as innocent as our
parents were before the tall. In Tokto and
the other largo cities of the empire the for-
olgn Influence has produced an order agaitist
this common bathing of the sexes , but In the
villages where such nn'oifdorhas been imulo
all the people have done Is to draw a string
through the center of tub bath vat and the
women and children arq on the ono side
While the men are on tho'other. At a famous
hot springs In the Jnpanejp mountains I saw
both sexes hopping around together In the
water , splashing each other and enjoying the
sulphurous fumes withopt a thought that
there was anything' Indecent about their ac
tions.
The Siamese nro sp near' the equator tha
they have about the same hot weather the
year around. Every man , woman und child
iu Bangkok takes a plunge Into the river at
least throe times n day. Of the " 00,000 pco-
plo Iu the city at least 00,000 live in floating
houses nnd Inasmuch as the summer costumes
of the lower classes consists of n garment
about the sl/o.of u { Turkish towel , It Is not
much trouble for them to go in bathing.
They bathe on the steps of their houses and
stand up to the waist la the water grunting
delightfully 03 they pour bucket after bucketful -
etful over themselves and their neighbors.
The Burmese man and woman tnko a bath
Kvery Night After Dinner.
This bath Is merely pouring .water over the
iwrson. Soap is nearer used und particular
carq Is taken not to , wet the , hair. At Now
Year's , when the weather Is as hot as our
summer , those people have what they call a
water feast , and at this tlmo the whole nation
tluwv water upou ono another. All the pretty
girls go out with buckets nnd the boys Imvo
squirt guns and for three days thcra Is
nothing but wntcr-splashlng. The for
eigners of Knnpoon also engage in this
nnd the Chinese cclcbrato the feast with the
rest. Ono Chinaman rigged up a hydrant
with a two Inch ptpo during the ast feast nnd
as his house was on the main street ho had
the bulge , as It wcro on every ono else. Ho
engaged n coollo to work the machine all day
and as he was selling waterworks ho had a
good advertisement in addition to his fun.
A swell Englishman arrived in Bur in ah last
year during this feast. Ho went to cull on
ono of the leading men of Rangoon In tall
silk hat and black clothes mid was mot nt tlio
door by a girl with a bucket of water. The
girl asked him in Burmese as to whether ho
was observing the water feast and ho sup
posing that she wanted to know whether ho
had come to sco her father
Needed HlH Ilrnil
nnd with that nod this whole bucket of water
went over his silk hat and down the back of
his collar , completely drenching him. Dur
ing the snmo time another party of English
men were told that some girls wcro coming to
throw water on them. They had the ser
vants bring out the bath tub nnd put It on the
veranda nnd when the girls came they got
possession of the tub nnd splushed the Eng
lishmen until one. of them rushing in seized
ono of the maidens and lifting her up dropped
her Into the tub. This was considered very
impolite and the young man who did It suf
fered by receiving no further attentions from
the Burmese beauties.
Along the Ganges In India It Is n sacred
duty of the Hindoos to bathe once every day
and they can wnt > h away their sins while
they nro washing their bodies , I have seen
ten thousand bathing at the same tliftcat the
holy bath stops of Benares. There is , how
ever , no fun about the Hindoo bath. It Is all
religion and the b.Uhor prays during the
whole tlmo. ' Both sexes bathe in the river
at the Bunft ) time but they keep their
clothes on and they do not mix
together. The finest bath houses of India
are those belonging to the rajahs. The Mo
hammedans have perhaps the finest baths of
the far cast and the Mohammedans of India
Hpcml Fortune ; ) on ' 1 li 'If ItutliH.
The most costly baths of all Asia wcro those
of the Mohammedan kings at Agra und Delhi.
Iu the great palace of Ahbar at Agra there is
a vast bath room down under ground , the
walls of which nro mosaic of many pieces of
colored glass set with mirrors as big around
as your thumb mill. These mirrors arc num
bered by the tens of thousands and the whole
brilliantly lighted must have been dazzling in
the spray of the fountains. Ho'oAkbaruscd
to bathe with his Irirem and ho reminds mo
of the khedive of Egypt who cooled himself
by riding around the lakes in his palace
grounds with his fairest beauties and now
and then giving ono , a shove overboard to heo
if she could swim. I saw at Delhi in ono of
the palaces of Shah Jehan the man who made
the peacock throne which cost S0,000,000 ! , a
bath which cost a fortune. It had room after
roo.in of marble and there wcro hot pipes and
cold fountains and it is said that ono of this
mail's successors when ho suspected oiio of
hH wives to bo unfaithful was wont to lock
her up' in this bath , turn the hot water and
forget all about her. The result was that she
awoke iu heaven. The Turks of Egypt and
of Turkey spend a great p.irt of their tlmo in
the bath ami the Turkish bath is too well
known In the United States to need descrip
tion.a
The rajahs of India Imvo got the art of
keeping cool down to a science. One of tno
finest cities of the far east is that of Joyporo.
It is the capital of n unlive state. All of its
buildings are rose-colored and they were all
built after ono style of architecture. The
palace of Iho rajah Is in vast gardens through
which rivers of water How in marble beds and
in which the luxuriant flowow and trees of
the tropics bloom. The Imrom of the rajah
of Joyporo looks out upon this garden und its
fair ladies are
Kept Cool Hy Fanning SIHIs
turned by hand. It takes a score of men to
turn the cranks to keep theao nriidons cool
and man-power has much to do with the re
frigerators of the east. There are thousands
of foreigners , Americans , English , Germans
and French now at work in Asia , aud each of
thcso does his bookkeeping under the bree/.o
of the punkuh. The punkah Is a long fan-liko
strip of cloth fastened to a beam which is
hung by ropes from the ceiling over the man's
head. To the middle of this beam u rope i. %
fastened and this rope is put through a pulley
and so arranged that a man sitting out of
doors and pulling at It will mnko the fan go
backward and forward over the bookkeeper's
head. The native pulls away all day long and
most foreigners have such a rigging put up
over their beds and keep the breezes blowing
In this way all night. You can get u China
man to do this for about fifteen cents a day
and your servant in India will work even
cheaper. Now and then your punkah man
goes to sleep and you notice the stoppage of
the air. All you have to do In this case is to
lift up a bucket of watnr and throw It out of
the window. A good drenching wakes up the
puukuhwalla and ho goes to work again. I
have seen thirty of thcso punkahs ut work in
a church while the Episcopalian minister was
reading the service , and tlio breeze added to
the sermon was decidedly soporific.
This church was at Singapore , just eighty
miles from the equator , where the sun rises
uud sets the sumo hour the your around.
Here I saw n lawn tennis mutch. The par
ticipants wcro foreigners , the ladles dressed
In linen costume and the men In whlto flannel
suits. Each player had a servant to run
alter the ball for him when it happened to go
outside the bounds , aud they did not take a
bit more exercise than was necessary. The
modes of exercise In the fur cast are of Inter
est to people who want to keep cool nud still
maintain u hculthy condition in hot weather.
Foreigners In Asia get up at daybreak , take
a good ride ucross the country or u walk be
fore the sun gets up. They take n sleep in
the middle of the day nud work on into the
evening. They drink
A Great Deal of Whisky ,
but whether this has a cooling influence or
not I do not know. A great part of the hard
work of the east Is done at night , and this is
especially so in the great government depart
ments. The king of Korea holds all his audi
ences nt night and the omparor of China
takes all his sleep In the duytlmo. This Is
so with the king of Slam , and the sultan of
Turkey never goes to sleep until 1 o'clock in
the morning ,
The question of water in the far east is an
important one and tlio water carriers form
onoof the largest castes of India. Both hero
und in India they curry their water in skins
upon their bucks nnd they
Sell It liy the Cup
and by the skinful. Thcso skin-bags nro
mudo of hog skins or goal skins und the ordi
nary skin will hold ten gallons. Water Is
worth about a cent a skin and the streets of
Calcutta are watered by these men , who
sprinkle the water from the skin upon the
dust. The street waterworks of Korea con
sists of a set of men who go urounu with
buckcta of water on their bucks , and la
Jupan the streets uro kept cool by u inuii who
carries two buckets of water fastened to a
polo over his shoulders and lets the water out
through little holes In their bottoms. Both
In Korea and Japan the water used for this
purpose is taken from the gutters , which
form to n largo extent the sewers of the city ,
and the cooling of the air Is by no moans a
purification of It ,
The question of kccptnc cool is largely a
matter of drc. s. Mr. Hockhlll , the American
who pushed his way Into Thibet last year ,
wore a Chinese costume during the journey
nnd ho tells mo It is far cooler than the Ameri
can. All of the nations of the cast
dress much better in this re
spect than wo do. The Japanese during the
summer hat practically nothing but u cotton
gown to rover his person and his lops are
bare. If ho Is a working man or of ono of
the poorer classes ho takes off every stitch of
clothing with ttio exception of n cloth around
the loins and trusts to the tattooed marks on
his back nnd legs to cover his nakedness.
This moilo of dressing Is now prohibited In
the cities but It is not nt all uncommon In the
country , ami In going through Japan you sco
both women und men chid In a dress not
much more extensive than that
Worn liy Adam and Kvo
in the garden. A woman who Is washing
clothes thinks nothing of pulling her dress
down to her waist and the man who pulls
your jtnriksha Into the country frequently
takes off Ills clothes and runs naked with the
exception of his loin cloth. Ono of the nicest
old foreign ladies In Japan during the past
few years has been the wife of our consul-
general at Yokohama. She came from Ken
tucky and she could not got reconcile 1 to this
nakedness of the pcoplo. Whenever u Jin-
rlkshu man attempted to take } off his coat or
shirt when ho was pulling tor carriage , she
decidedly objected , nnd when she llrst came *
to Japan I am told that she often stopped the
pretty llttlo Jap girls on the streets und
pinned their dresses close up to the throat ,
telling thorn that it was Immodest to show so
much of their bosoms.
The Chinese pantaloons nro very full and
no ono wears drawers. The Korean has
nants so baggy that they will reach clear up
to his neck , though ho fastens them about his
waist , and the Korean woman wraps her
skirt around her bosom just under the arms ,
nnd there Is often six inches of brown skin
showing between this and the llttlo sacquo
which COVCH her shoulder. A Siamese workIng -
Ing woman frequently wears nothing over
her shoulders and breasts , and she wraps the
cloth about her waist and pulls It in through
the legs , tucking It in nt the back in such a
way that her limbs are bare to the kueo. It
is the sumo with the Malay women as far as
the upper part of the dress is concerned , nnd
over in Borneo you will sco plump round girls
with llttlo mows than a breech clout to cover
their nakedness. The Burmese woman
dresses in the finest of silks , but her dress
consists of ono long piece which she wraps
around her waist and lets fall to her feet.
This is tied at the front , and the opening is
at this place , but the girls have from long
practice acquired
A Graceful Kloklnjj
with the fcot , by which they are enabled to
keep their gowns together and avoid any ex
posure of the person. They wear sacques
and are the brightest and prottiust women of
the cast. A greater part of the Indians , both
men and womendrcss in white cotton sheets ,
and the common people of Egypt wear blue
cotton gowus. As to children those of tha
Orient wear practically nothing , and I have
scon girls of ten on the streets of Bangkok
iig ake as. yUon tliQ TCro ni.ji X e
pot-bellied yoifngstors waddling'nrjimd In
the nttiro of Cupid throughout the streets <
nnd country roads of Korea , and though
Japanese children wear clothes llko their
parents , when the weather is at all cold , they
often shed them when it is hot. There are a
great many mosquitoes in Slam , and the
Siamese have a yellow powder which they
rub over the bodies of their children to keep
off the insects. It turns the babies to a
rich chrome color , and under the sun makes
them slime llko gold.
The houses of the far east are better
adapted to tlio weather than ours. The
Japanese house is forfned of sliding walls of
paper so made that he can tnko them out ,
throw his whole homo into ono room , or make
his house consist of a roof and floor. His
floors are usually some distance apovo the
ground nnd there is a draught of air under
them. They nro covered with matting and
nro not cluttered up with furniture. The
Japanese house of the ucttcr chuss has a
heavy roof , but It has none of the sanitary
conveniences of the Japanese. None of the
Siamese houses have windows , and those
which arc on the water have breezes
HlowiiiK Continually Through Thorn.
The land hruses are built high up on piles
and the same Istruoof the houses InBurmah.
The Egyptian houses have very Illicit walls ,
their roofs are flat and thick and their In
teriors nro wonderfully cool. In most of the
Egyptian villages n'nd cities the business is
done in the bazars and the streets ro covered
with matting which is stretched from roof to
roof from the houses on each side so that the
customers never gut In the sun In going from
ono store to another. The bazars of Unngooii
ami Burmah are all under ono roof and the
vast business of Constantinople Is made up of
miles of llttlo booths arranged in streets
under ono vast roof. Among the coolest
houses of the far cast are those of Jerusa
lem. The pcoplo hero live In places that look
like caves and their houses are in the shape
of caves. The roofs are very thick and each
has a llttlo dome built in the top of it. The
roofs are flat and many of the people during
the hot weather bring out their beds and
sleep on the house tops.

"Speaking about ball players' ages," said
Dave Howe to the writer one evening during
the Denver's recent trip here, "who would
you say was the oldest player on the diamond
today?"
"You are no spring chicken yourself Dave," was the answer, "but of course there are a score or more older than you."
"Me," Interrupted the big first baseman
with considerable acerbity, "In heaven's
name, who do you take me for, Methuselah? How old am I?"
"Well David, I saw you play ball about
sixteen years ago, and you were as big and as
ugly and a good deal better ball player then
than you are now, and I should judge that
you are about thirty-eight years old."
"Thirty-eight centuries you might as well
put it. No sir, I'm only thirty-two, and I'm
two years older than my brother Jack of the
Buffalos and if you don't believe it we'll send
for the family Bible and prove it. And you
never saw me play ball sixteen years ago.
You refer to the time I suppose when the
Peorias played the Cumberland Blue Stockings
at Cincinnati, when Jack and I were with the Illinois team."
"Correct."
"I thought so. Well that was in the fall of
'88, so you see you are off your base exactly
four years. No sir. Sandy, I'll cross my
breast, I won't be thirty-two until next September," and that bland, child-like look came in Dave's face, the look he always wears
when talking with the umpire just before he
cries "play ball."
Smooth man, that Dave Howe, and a great
general and ball player yet, no difference
what they say.
"But the oldest man in the diamond today,
that is what you ask, is it Dave?"
"Yes, who do you think is the man?"
"Either Jack Nelson of the Atlantic league,
or Jim White of the Buffalo brotherhood
club. I remember when I was yet a barefoot
boy of gazing my eye to a kitchen hole in the
fence at the old Forest City park in Cleveland and watching the Deacon go through
the Highland League behind the plate, way
back in '70 or '71. Jim White, I would say,
isn't a day under forty-seven, and yet 1 see
his age stated frequently at forty-two."
"Well, I think you are wrong. I don't
think Jim is over forty, and he's worth several years work yet."
"You make me weary, Dave; you ballplayers are all alike; you are as frad as a school
girl that somebody will find out your correct
age, and you couldn't tell the truth if you tried. The list of ballplayers' ages published
in last week's New York Sporting Times, so
far as the old veterans are concerned,
is simply preposterous, although Editor
Caylon gives the alleged date of their births.
The brotherhood is full of patriarchs who used
to be ballplayers, who are now only making a bluff
at ball playing, and it will only require this
season to relegate them to the shades eternal,
have where they will occasionally crop out as
an umpire. But the oldest active player on
the diamond today is unquestionably Deacon
White."
"Woes of the Tall-ender.
The tail-end team in a baseball race generally
gets it from "soda to sock." If there is
any ill-luck to be smeared over any team the
tail-enders get it. Omaha and St. Paul are
instances in the present Western association
contest. So far as individual strength is
concerned both of these teams compare favorably with the very best in the race. Omaha
surely is the equal of any of them, either
Individually or collectively, and still she
loses. If rain falls in any city in the circuit
during the night before a game in sufficient
quantities to flood the ball grounds, it is
ten to one that it is in the city
where the tail-enders are to
play. Of course they always get the worst
of the umpiring. That is as certain as death
or taxes. One reason for this is that the umpire is less afraid of the tail-end team than he
is of one well up in the race, and is naturally
inclined toward adherence to the old saw,
"never kick a man when he's down, but hit
him with a club." If the regular umpire fails
to show up it is invariably upon the grounds
of the tail-enders, under which circumstances
they are compelled by the rules to select an
umpire from the ranks of the visiting club,
who is scrupulously careful to give them the
worst of it. If a player gets lined for
kicking, it is always one of the tail-enders.
In fact, the tail-ender gets the worst of
everything. They lose more games by a
single run than all the other teams combined,
and then if there is a railroad wreck within a
hundred miles of the city they are to play in
that day, of course they are in it. Their star
pitcher is always sick, nobody goes to see
them play, they forfeit guarantees on account of the inclemency of the weather, have
more hats stolen and meet with more general
cursed misfortune than ought to fall to the
lot of a dozen teams. Surely an awful hoodoo
deed rests forever on the tail-enders.
The Cause of Omaha Defeats.
There's no use talking, the Black Sox cannot
be expected to win with any degree of
regularity until Manager Leonard discontinues changing the men about so much,
The team contains regular men for regular
positions and they should be played there or
not at all. There has hardly been two consecutive games this season with the men in
the same positions, and it is a wonder the
team has done as well as it has. Today it is
Urquhart in the field, tomorrow Moran or
Phelan; then Cunningham appears on second,
then back in the field again; Urquhart on
first, then behind the bat; Willis in the
middle garden today, and in the box tomorrow,
and so it goes. This was Slocum's fault in
'88. The team was played no two days alike,
and the consequence was that the boys won about
every fourth or fifth game. The personnel
of the Omaha team just now is a strong one,
nobody men should be played each according to
his individual qualifications, Kearns,
Cunningham and Willis should be kept uninterrupted in the field, and Urquhart and
Moran required only to do the back-stopping.
Collins is now in playing form, and there will
be no occasion for continued experimenting
at 'em, and unless sickness or injury
interferes it is pretty safe to say that the team
will be played from this on as it ought to be
played. If the management is desirous of
cutting expenses they should decide upon
Phelan or Phelan as their general utility man
and let the other go, without hesitation or
futilement. That's the way to run a ball
team.
Now Grounds for Next Season,
Unquestionably this is the last season the
game will be played at the present park, as
President McCormick has unalterably made
up his mind to secure grounds
within a shorter distance of the
center of the city at any cost. This is
a wise determination, for were the grounds
located but half the distance from
the corner of Fifteenth and Fremont that
they now are, the attendance would be
doubled. Such a change would do away with
all danger of failure in taking in the game
during weak-day games, in fact, ball
in Omaha would then be in an enterprise that
would attract the most liberal investment.
McCormick has not yet dismissed all hope of securing the grounds on Nicholas Street, between Nineteenth and Twentieth Streets, just north of the Omaha street railway company's new river house. The fitting up of these grounds would require the demolition of one or two, and entail a vast deal of expense, but the revenue derived by reason of their increased accessibility would be of such a character as would offset all this at a very early day in the season. Big crowds enhance a ball game, just like they do a horse race, theatrical performance or any other amusement, and the patrons of the game are all anxious to have the management succeed in securing grounds nearer the center of the city.
About the Town in.
Walley Andrews hasn't got his good eye with him to any very considerable extent yet this season. With men on bases, he can be counted a sure out. This is tough, but true. Just wait, however, he will get his optics on the ball before long, and then the fences will quiver.
Have you noticed what all elegant bunt big Mike Hines makes? He gets it down well, about half way between home and third, close along the line, and has but little difficulty in beating the ball to first. A bunted ball is really and truly the only sacrifice hit there is.
Also from Caesar is praise indeed. Anson says that "Omaha is a regular factory for shortstops. Last fall I plucked Jimmy Connolly, the greatest of them all, with perhaps the exception of Herman Long and Jack Glasscock, from out their ranks, but they are making another out there this year in Joe Walsh. He's a treasure."
Tom Kearns, while he ranks head and shoulders above any outfielder in the Western association, is a sure hitter with men on the bases, and he never smashes her for much less than a three-sucker. Kearns is the life of the team.
Dad Clarke has not been in real prime condition yet this season, but he is working hard to get there. Probably Dad's misfortune can be accounted for by the fact that he met a wagon load of empty barrels on his way to the opening championship game at Denver this spring, and yet the Omaha lost. Clarke, you know, rates a load of empty barrels good for a win under any circumstances, and to pass a funeral means defeat.
Connavan is growing bigger and bigger every day, and will soon be a real man. And then Jimmy is putting up a better game, too, it seems, with every additional day. He's almost dead sure to rap out a sacrifice hit when he steps to the bat in the opening inning.
Everybody likes to see Tit Willis on the bases. He's full of ginger all the time and never gets glued to the bags. Tit's third base steals are great.
Cleveland has been playing in rotten luck all during the spring months, but he is getting down to form now and will soon be glorified as greatly as he has been execrated. So far as ability is concerned, when in condition, he has it with any player on the team. More miraculous pickups or swifter, more accurate throws than some of his, were never seen on the diamond.
Billy Moran and Cornelius Ferguson are two of your right-minded young players. They are hard students and promising players, and intend to allow no opportunity to pass that offers a chance of improvement. Neither man has any bad habits and both keep good hours. They are model ball players.
Pitcher Altman is the Sphinx of the team. He has only spoken once or twice since he joined the Omaha, and some of the gang say he can hold his breath an hour.
Enough of Kelley and Collins' play has not been seen yet to justify any comment.
The Omaha Weekly Spurt.
The Omaha gun club's weekly shoot, which was held on the Dunbar grounds across the river yesterday afternoon, resulted in the following:
Kennedy. . title filled with chances Omaha-West win
Clark. more more than wins Columbus-Omaha
Morris. fielded with skill Omaha-Omaha
Herdman. filled with courage Omaha-21
Townsend. (Milt fielded skill Omaha!)
Hunter. homered twice Denver-1.)
Graves. fanned out but secondly Omaha-17
The conditions were 23 standard targets, 18 yards rise, 5 unknown traps.
Soldier Reading, the byker, has located in St. Joseph.
Chester U. Olmstead, one of Chicago's best riders, will summer in Omaha.
C. C. Candy of Boston is here assisting Perrigo in booming the Victor.
Stillman G. Whitaker has returned from England. While in Europe he made a mile in 23:2.
Young Schilt, of this city, beat Charlie Ashinger, the Oklahoma farmer, in a fifty-mile race down at St. Joe last week.
Belt has returned and is at work again.
The semi-weekly runs by Perrigo's three-man team will now be resumed it is presumed. The weather is getting a trifle too inclement for long weekly club runs and the Apollos will discontinue theirs until after dog days.
Captain Emerson has issued a very neat card with the runs called for July, which obviates all excuse on the score of ignorance of time or place.
The Omaha clubs could occasion considerable agitation by a grand road race. All of the prominent clubs in the country are holding them this season.
This afternoon the run will be made to Lake Manuwn, where the boys will fish and disport themselves in the limpid waters, or limpid mud, to their hearts' content.
Several members of the local wheel clubs will probably attend the national meet of the League of American Wheelmen, which will be held at Niagara Falls in August.
The lawn party given by the Omaha wheel club last Wednesday evening was a flattering success, thanks to the untiring efforts of the committee, Messrs. Head, Morris, and Day.
The wheel club's first summer fest last Wednesday evening was a charming affair. The grounds were ornate with Chinese lanterns, the music by the Mandolin club was delicious, and the refreshments ditto.
The first annual club race of the Apollos will take place today over the Omaha-Council Bluffs course. The prize is a handsome gold medal offered by W. Bohl of the Acme Iron and wire works.
Jack Prince and Lily Williams compete in a twenty-five mile race at St. Joseph this afternoon, Prince to give the Lily a handicap of a mile and a half. Of course they will both break the record.
On the Missouri Valley road the train leaves at 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. on the Fourth, and on the Union Pacific at 12:15 a.m. on the 4th. All riders taking wheels by rail should remove the pedals at the depot.
The punch bowl, embedded in a mammoth cake of ice, and embowered in carnations and Michaelmas roses, was not the least pleasing feature of the banquet hall. The club is getting very swagger, and the evening fêtes will be kept up through the summer.
The club run to Calhoun was well attended and greatly enjoyed. The run to Lake Manawa, however, carried off the palm, being the best attended run yet called by Captain Emerson. At the lake the boys had a great time, every one giving himself up to the hour.
The Omaha Wheel club will spend the Fourth at Fremont as guests of the Fremont club. There will be a grand parade, and the Omaha contingent has been honored with the lead. A large number of members will leave here on the 24th via the old military road. They will depart at 5:00 p.m., lunch at Elk City about 6:00, and arrive at Fremont shortly after 7:00.
The bicycle clip is the latest. The patentee is an old cyclist, and knowing the inconvenience of having a quiet smoke on a bicycle, he has devised this unusual clip. It is made to fit on the handlebar, the pipe being secured by a nickel-plated clip and spring, and is connected to the rider by a flexible tube with mouthpiece. All vibration to the tooth is done away with, and the danger of sparks and tobacco-ash lodging in the eyes is entirely averted. The rider can mount and dismount without detaching the pipe. When not riding, the pipe can be used as an ordinary one, and a very handsome pipe it makes, Master Will Pliny of Omaha deserves more credit and gained more applause than any starter at Chicago's greatest tournament. Though but sixteen years of age, he demonstrated the fact that he was not to be handicapped by age, as some of our older riders can verify, and several expressed the opinion that he was without doubt the coming man. Pliny, in all of his races, was well up at the finish, and with another year's strength and growth will surely hustle our fliers. He is a wonder for his size and knows all the tricks of the track. Peabody is a worthy representative of the same city, and gave Schooter a much closer nib for the 100 miles than he did a year ago. Taggar, also from Omaha, did not appear to great advantage. All of the Omaha men have a habit of riding "on the head of their wheels," and it was this that caused Taggar to take a header over nothing and throw himself, Barrett and Masl out of the race. Chicago Sporting Review.
Miscellaneous Local Sports.
It is reported that wood ducks are nesting around the sloughs at Horseshoe Lake and Whiting in unusual numbers.
Advices from Missouri Valley report the waters having subsided and that bass and pickerel are again taking the lure very well.
Next Tuesday afternoon there will be a match shoot for the shells and birds between two teams, five men each, from the Omaha and Winchester clubs.
The pool rooms in this city, and there are four of them, all flourishing like cedars of Lebanon, are the greatest existing factors in running down the attendance at the ball games.
Some whaling channel cats have been taken on trot lines from the Missouri, off Florence, within the past few days. One 'monster', weighing seventy-eight pounds, was captured Wednesday night last.
Pickard's Grove, southwest of the city, will be the scene of considerable sport on the Fourth, including a slow mule race for the purse of $10, amateur foot race, fat man's race, greased pole and greased pig, baseball, and a match pacing race for $100 a side.
The uncommon sight at this time of year of nineteen wild geese, were seen flying north over the city last Thursday afternoon. Where these birds have been it would be difficult to surmise, but it is quite certain they have been waiting down at Kansas City to see Dave Howe's shoemakers try to play bull.
Phil Davis, the so-called champion lightweight of Colorado, is in the city panting for a fight with a tiny 130-pound man who can be scared up. Davis would look a vast deal better in a brick yard or boiler factory than any place else that can be thought of just now. Omaha will from this on give pugilists and pugilism a very cold deal.
The Lincoln gun club will hold a grand sweepstakes tournament July 4 and 5, and Messrs. Hughes, Kennedy, Slice, Parmelee, Gwin, Musselman, Latchaw, Clark, and Townsend will go down from this city and take a few arm fills of the laurels. The tournament will be conducted under the American association rules and the shooters will be classified by a committee into A and B grades.
The Grand Island gun club has challenged the Omaha gun club for a match team shoot, ten men to each team, for from $10 to $30 a side per each man. The challenge has been accepted and arrangements are being made to have the shoot come off in this city immediately after the Fourth. If Grand Island can congregate together ten men who can hold a tallow candle to the ten cracks from the Omaha club she can win the earth.
The Iowa State Sportmen's association have elected the following officers for the current year: President, J. G. Smith, Algona; first vice president, A. J. Selwart, Des Moines; second vice president, W. L. Lefingwell, Clinton; secretary, Nelson Royal, Des Moines; treasurer, O. Perkins, Des Moines; directors, C. W. Budd and George Converse, Des Moines; N. S. Young, Burlington; Charles Grim, Clear Lake; F. O. Davis, Davenport.
The American Shooting association has made a much demanded change in its rules. It formerly limited the charge of shot in a 1-gauge gun to 1½ ounces, which was the cause of much dissatisfaction with those sportsmen, who in keeping up with modern ideas regarding trap shooting, had provided themselves with the lighter and more sportsmanlike weapons. The limitation to 1½ ounces was regarded as a hardship, and in response to the general demand the association now permits the use of 1¾ ounces in guns of any caliber.
As a fish market Omaha seems to be a failure. It is a difficult matter to procure fresh fish here, although it is on the borders of a great fishery. Minnesota's lakes and streams teem with the game black bass and trout, the delicate pike and pickerel, the delicious croppy and savory muskellunge, and yet but small quantities of these midsummer luxuries find their way into the local market. It is an unaccountable fact that Omaha is not a fish-eating community, and yet, notwithstanding, it is one of the brainiest cities in the country.

HOW ORIENTALS KEEP COOL
Some Ideas by Which Sweltering Humanity in American Play Profits,
PRESS SPARINGLY AND BATHE OFTEN,
Japan's Hot Health and the Humid Water Feast Wearing Huts to Get the Liberty Adam and Eve Costumes.
Washington, June '91. [Special to The Breeze.] Washington is sweltering under a mid-summer sun. The statesmen at the capital are in their summer clothes and every man has his recipe for keeping cool. I know of a senator who takes twelve butlers a week at the government expense and there are several members of the lower house who wear seersucker coats and flannel shirts. I visited the National museum today to see the appliances which the people of the tropics have to keep themselves cool. The Korean gentleman has a wire-work shirt which keeps his clothes away from the body and acts as a sort of ventilator lying between his abdomen and his gown. He has wire cuffs which run from his wrist to his elbow and which are made of the finest of stiff straw. Those keep the alcoves away from the person and the Korean embassy at Washington is the coolest of all the legations. It's from these wire bustles worn over the belly that the Koreans got their reputation of being such a fat race. They are fat, but not half so fat as is supposed. It is this wire arrangement that increases their apparent circumference, and as fatness in Korea is a sign of wealth, there is no hesitation shown by a thin man in trying to make himself look like the fat man in the dime museum. The Korean has the lightest summer hat known to the world. It is of the sugar-loaf variety, is made of horsehair and it weighs but a few ounces.
The fan collection of the museum represents all the countries of the east. Even the Sandwich islanders have fans and some of the South sea natives hide their nudity behind a fan made of fragrant grass and not more than six inches in diameter. The palm-leaf fans of this country and Europe are all made at Canton in China and the Chinese are among the finest fail-makers of the world. During my trip around the world, I visited Peking and a number of other Chinese cities, and I found whole streets devoted to the sale of fans and lanterns. Shanghai is a city lying on the coast between Shanghai and Hong Kong, which is noted for its fine fans. These fans are of fine paper stretched on a frame which curves at the top and which thus produces a sort of bow catching the wind and making them delightfully cooling. The fans are beautifully painted and the pictures on them are the best exhibition of Chinese fan art. Every Japanese inn and woman carries a fan, and the fans which we got from Japan are of the cheapest variety. In Japan, the gentlemen usually use folding fans, and they carry them in their bosoms, under their collars or tucked into their girdle. It is the ladies who use the flat fans, and it would be contrary to etiquette for a man to appear on the street with a fan, that would not fold up. Japan has its fan etiquette, and there is as much a language of the fan as a language of flowers. The pretty young women of Tokyo and Kyoto express through fanning what American lovers convey by kissing, for the hot osculation of America is unknown among the Japanese either in the summer or in the winter. The Japanese have autograph fans as we have, and many of the young people make fan collections containing the signatures of their friends or verses of poetry written on them. One of the most striking characters of Tokyo is an old fan seller. She is a woman of about eighty who goes around with fans and brooms and who cries her wares from house to house.
An important cooling recipe of the far east is the bath, and the hot bath is taken by the Japanese several times a day. The bathing is done in the public bath rooms or in the private tub and no soap is used. Many Japanese are now parboiling themselves in water raised to 100 Fahrenheit and the whole family bathes in the same tub. There is a model of one of these tubs at the National museum and the average Japanese bath tub is about three feet high, oval in shape, and it has a little furnace with a stovepipe running up above the top of the tub set into one end of it. A board keeps this stovepipe from touching the skin and a few moments will heat the bath to boiling. The Japanese have no false modesty as to the showing of their person and it is not an uncommon thing in a Japanese house to see a lady at her bath, or if you be a guest to have one of the female servants come in and
Offer to lather You Down.
Carter Harrison of Chicago was much surprised at this during his stay in Japan and he scalded the flesh off his fat calves in jumping into the tub to get out of the way of the almond-eyed beauty who came in to assist him. I know a wealthy man in Washington who was traveling in Japan the same time that I was who could not get enough of these hot baths and who made a number of trips into the interior of the country in order that he might have them with all their old Japan flavor. In many of the public bath houses of Japan both sexes bathe together and on a hot day of July or August they splash and play with one another as innocently as our parents were before the fall. In Tokyo and the other large cities of the empire the foreign influence has produced an order against this common bathing of the sexes, but in the villages where such an order has been made all the people have done is to draw a string through the center of the tub bath vat and the women and children are on one side while the men are on the other. At a famous hot springs in the Japanese mountains I saw both sexes hopping around together in the water, splashing each other and enjoying the sulphurous fumes without a thought that there was anything indecent about their actions.
The Siamese are close to the equator, so they have about the same hot weather all year around. Every man, woman, and child in Bangkok takes a plunge into the river at least three times a day. Of the 200,000 people in the city, at least 100,000 live in floating houses, and inasmuch as the summer costumes of the lower classes consist of a garment about the size of a Turkish towel, it is not much trouble for them to go in bathing. They bathe on the steps of their houses and stand up to the waist in the water, grunting delightfully as they pour bucket after bucketful over themselves and their neighbors. The Burmese man and woman take a bath every night after dinner. This bath is merely pouring water over the person. Soap is rarely used, and particular care is taken not to wet the hair. At New Year's, when the weather is as hot as our summer, those people have what they call a water feast, and at this time the whole nation throws water upon one another. All the pretty girls go out with buckets, and the boys have squirt guns, and for three days there is nothing but water splashing. The foreigners of England also engage in this, and the Chinese celebrate the feast with the rest. One Chinaman rigged up a hydrant with a two-inch pipe during the last feast and as his house was on the main street, he had the bulge, as it were, on everyone else. He engaged a coolie to work the machine all day and as he was selling waterworks, he had a good advertisement in addition to his fun. A swell Englishman arrived in Burma last year during this feast. He went to call on one of the leading men of Rangoon dressed in a tall silk hat and black clothes, and was met at the door by a girl with a bucket of water. The girl asked him in Burmese as to whether he was observing the water feast, and he, supposing that she wanted to know whether he had come to see her father, with that nod, this whole bucket of water went over his silk hat and down the back of his collar, completely drenching him. During the same time, another party of Englishmen were told that some girls were coming to throw water on them. They had the servants bring out the bathtub and put it on the veranda and when the girls came, they got possession of the tub and splashed the Englishmen until one of them, rushing in, seized one of the maidens and lifting her up, dropped her into the tub. This was considered very impolite and the young man who did it suffered by receiving no further attentions from the Burmese beauties.
Along the Ganges in India, it is a sacred duty of the Hindus to bathe once every day, and they can wash away their sins while they are washing their bodies. I have seen ten thousand bathing at the same time at the holy baths of Benares. There is, however, no fun about the Hindu bath. It is all religion, and the bather prays during the whole time. Both sexes bathe in the river at the same time but they keep their clothes on and they do not mix together. The finest baths of India are those belonging to the rajahs. The Mohammedans have perhaps the finest baths of the far east, and the Mohammedans of India have splendid ones. The most costly baths of all Asia were those of the Mohammedan kings at Agra and Delhi. In the great palace of Akbar at Agra, there is a vast bath room down underneath, the walls of which are mosaic of many pieces of colored glass set with mirrors as big around as your thumb nail. These mirrors are numbered by the tens of thousands and the whole brilliantly lighted must have been dazzling in the spray of the fountains. Akbar used to bathe with his women, and he reminds me of the khedive of Egypt who cooled himself by riding around the lakes in his palace grounds with his fairest beauties and now and then giving one, a shove overboard to see if she could swim. I saw at Delhi in one of the palaces of Shah Jehan, the man who made the peacock throne, which cost $5,000,000, a bath which cost a fortune. It had room after room of marble, and there were hot pipes and cold fountains, and it is said that one of this man's successors, when he suspected one of his wives to be unfaithful, was wont to lock her up in this bath, turn the hot water, and forget all about her. The result was that she awoke in heaven. The Turks of Egypt and of Turkey spend a great part of their time in the bath, and the Turkish bath is too well known in the United States to need description.
The rajahs of India have got the art of keeping cool down to a science. One of the finest cities of the far east is that of Jodhpur. It is the capital of a princely state. All of its buildings are rose-colored, and they were all built after one style of architecture. The palace of the rajah is in vast gardens, through which rivers of water flow in marble beds, and in which the luxuriant flowers and trees of the tropics bloom. The women of the rajah of Jodhpur look out upon this garden, and their fair ladies are kept cool by being turned by hand. It takes a score of men to turn the cranks to keep these fair ones cool, and man-power has much to do with the refrigerators of the east. There are thousands of foreigners, Americans, English, Germans, and French now at work in Asia, and each of these does his bookkeeping under the breeze of the punkah. The punkah is a long fan-like strip of cloth fastened to a beam which is hung by ropes from the ceiling over the man's head. To the middle of this beam, a rope is fastened, and this rope is put through a pulley and so arranged that a man sitting outside and pulling at it will make the fan go backward and forward over the bookkeeper's head. The native pulls away all day long, and most foreigners have such a rigging put up over their beds and keep the breezes blowing in this way all night. You can get a Chinese man to do this for about fifteen cents a day, and your servant in India will work even cheaper. Now and then your punkah man goes to sleep and you notice the stoppage of the air. All you have to do in this case is to lift up a bucket of water and throw it out of the window. A good drenching wakes up the punkahwallah, and he goes to work again. I have seen thirty of these punkahs at work in a church while the Episcopalian minister was reading the service, and the breeze added to the sermon was decidedly soporific.
This church was at Singapore, just eighty miles from the equator, where the sun rises and sets at the same hour all year around. Here I saw a lawn tennis match. The participants were foreigners, the ladies dressed in linen costumes and the men in white flannel suits. Each player had a servant to run after the ball for him when it happened to go outside the bounds, and they did not take a bit more exercise than was necessary. The modes of exercise in the far east are of interest to people who want to keep cool and still maintain a healthy condition in hot weather.
Foreigners in Asia get up at daybreak, take a good ride across the country or walk before the sun gets up. They take a sleep in the middle of the day and work on into the evening. They drink a great deal of whisky, but whether this has a cooling influence or not, I do not know. A great part of the hard work of the east is done at night, and this is especially so in the great government departments. The king of Korea holds all his audiences at night and the emperor of China takes all his sleep in the daytime. This is so with the king of Siam, and the sultan of Turkey never goes to sleep until 1 o'clock in the morning.
The question of water in the far east is an important one and the water carriers form one of the largest castes of India. Both here and in India, they carry their water in skins upon their backs and they sell it by the cup and by the skinful. These skin-bags are made of hog skins or goat skins and the ordinary skin will hold ten gallons. Water is worth about a cent a skin and the streets of Calcutta are watered by these men, who sprinkle the water from the skin upon the dust. The street waterworks of Korea consists of a set of men who go around with buckets of water on their backs, and in Japan the streets are kept cool by a man who carries two buckets of water fastened to a pole over his shoulders and lets the water out through little holes in their bottoms. Both in Korea and Japan, the water used for this purpose is taken from the gutters, which form to a large extent the sewers of the city, and the cooling of the air is by no means a purification of it.
The question of keeping cool is largely a matter of dress. Mr. Rockhill, the American who pushed his way into Thibet last year, wore a Chinese costume during the journey and he tells me it is far cooler than the American. All of the nations of the east dress much better in this respect than we do. The Japanese during the summer have practically nothing but a cotton gown to cover their person and their hats are bare. If he is a working man or of one of the poorer classes, he takes off every stitch of clothing with the exception of a cloth around the loins and trusts to the tattooed marks on his back and legs to cover his nakedness. This mode of dressing is now prohibited in the cities but it is not at all uncommon in the country, and in going through Japan, you see both women and men dressed in a way not much more extensive than that worn by Adam and Eve in the garden. A woman who is washing clothes thinks nothing of pulling her dress down to her waist and the man who pulls your rickshaw into the country frequently takes off his clothes and runs naked with the exception of his loin cloth. One of the nicest old foreign ladies in Japan during the past few years has been the wife of our consul-general at Yokohama. She came from Kentucky and she could not get reconciled to this nakedness of the people. Whenever a Japanese man attempted to take off his coat or shirt when he was pulling for a carriage, she decidedly objected, and when she first came to Japan, I am told that she often stopped the pretty little Japanese girls on the streets and pinned their dresses close up to the throat, telling them that it was immodest to show so much of their bosoms.
The Chinese pantaloons are very full and no one wears drawers. The Korean has pants so baggy that they will reach clear up to his neck, though he fastens them about his waist, and the Korean woman wraps her skirt around her bosom just under the arms, and there is often six inches of brown skin showing between this and the little sack, which covers her shoulder. A Siamese working woman frequently wears nothing over her shoulders and breasts, and she wraps the cloth about her waist and pulls it in through the legs, tucking it in at the back in such a way that her limbs are bare to the knee. It is the same with the Malay women as far as the upper part of the dress is concerned, and over in Borneo, you will see plump round girls with nothing but a breechcloth to cover their nakedness. The Burmese woman dresses in the finest of silks, but her dress consists of one long piece which she wraps around her waist and lets fall to her feet. This is tied at the front, and the opening is at this place, but the girls have from long practice acquired a graceful trick with the feet, by which they are enabled to keep their gowns together and avoid any exposure of the person. They wear sacques and are the brightest and prettiest women of the east. A greater part of the Indians, both men and women, dress in white cotton sheets, and the common people of Egypt wear blue cotton gowns. As to children, those of the Orient wear practically nothing, and I have seen girls of ten on the streets of Bangkok wearing next to nothing, while pot-bellied youngsters waddling around in the attire of Cupid throughout the streets and country roads of Korea, and though Japanese children wear clothes like their parents, when the weather is at all cold, they often shed them when it is hot. There are a great many mosquitoes in Japan, and the Siamese have a yellow powder which they rub over the bodies of their children to keep off the insects. It turns the babies to a rich chrome color, and under the sun makes them shine like gold.
The houses of the far east are better adapted to the weather than ours. The Japanese house is formed of sliding walls of paper so made that he can take them out, throw his whole home into one room, or make his house consist of a roof and floor. His floors are usually some distance above the ground and there is a draught of air under them. They are covered with matting and are not cluttered up with furniture. The Japanese house of the latter class has a heavy roof, but it has none of the sanitary conveniences of the Japanese. None of the Siamese houses have windows, and those which are on the water have breezes blowing continually through them. The land houses are built high up on piles and the same as the houses in Burma. The Egyptian houses have very thick walls, their roofs are flat and thick and their interiors are wonderfully cool. In most of the Egyptian villages and cities, the business is done in the bazars and the streets are covered with matting which is stretched from roof to roof from the houses on each side so that the customers never get in the sun in going from one store to another. The bazars of Burma and Burma are all under one roof and the vast business of Constantinople is made up of miles of little booths arranged in streets under one vast roof. Among the coolest houses of the far east are those of Jerusalem. The people here live in places that look like caves and their houses are in the shape of caves. The roofs are very thick and each has a little dome built in the top of it. The roofs are flat and many of the people during the hot weather bring out their beds and sleep on the house tops.
Atkinson (Neb.) Graphic: A good story on a neighboring editor is going the rounds; and we believe it on the best authority that it happened at Stuart. It is to the effect that the pencil pusher went out to report a party the other evening where the home had recently been blessed with a new baby. Accompanied by his best girl, he met the hostess at the door, and after the usual salutations, asked after the baby's health. The lady, who was quite deaf and suffering with the grippe, thought he was asking about her cold, and told him that although she usually had a cold every spring, this was the worst one she ever had; It kept her awake nights a good deal at first and confined her to her bed. Then, noticing that the scribe was getting pale and nervous, she said that she could tell by his looks that he was going to have one just like hers, and asked him to go in and lie down. The paper was out as usual the next week, but the editor has quit inquiring about babies.
A Crushed "Journalist."
Seattle Press: Colonel Lycurgus Ochiltree met the town clerk yesterday and said: "Do you know, sir, that I, sir, was once a newspaper reporter, sir, but I only worked for a day, sir, and being hard up, sir, I accepted a position on a stump, sir. The editor, Major Shiner, sent me to the capital to interview the governor, sir, on the political issues of the day, sir. I had begun the article, sir, as follows: 'Colonel Lycurgus Ochiltree, late of the Twelfth South Carolina, O.S.A., and now reporter of the Columbia Gusher, accompanied by the governor of South Carolina, proceeded to the Southern hotel, and the former interviewed the latter as follows: "The beastly editor objected to that, and said..."
"Colonel, you are a bigger man than the governor of South Carolina, and therefore too large to work on the (flusher. Your services, therefore, are no longer required, sir."
"I called the saucy fellow out, sir, for the offense, and he winged me, sir, and that's the reason why I'm here today, sir, and walk lame, sir. But for that episode, sir, would by this time, sir, have been a great journalist, sir."

Timothy Clover: Yep. For a fact.
After the Play.

Here Sign of Death.
Rochester Herald: "On five successive nights last week, as I was on my way home at about midnight, a black cat crossed my path," said a western venue man to a Herald representative yesterday. "Well, what of it?" inquired the newspaper man. "Why, it is a sure sign of death," was the reply, "I am not superstitious about anything else, but I tell you this sign never fails." "But it appears to have failed this time," said the man of news. "No, it hasn't," said the superstitious man. "It holds good, because I killed the cat with a chunk of coal on the fifth night. A black cat crossing your path is a sure sign of death."
An Infant Tyrant in Church.
Leeds Mercury: Recently, a lady took a little boy to a church in Leeds. He was a very little boy and it was his first visit to church. The organ began to play and the child turned to his mother and whispered in a loud voice:
"What's that, mamma?"
"Hush, dear, it's the organ."
"An organ in church!" whispered the small boy, evidently much astonished, and impressed. Then a pause of expectation, and a clergyman, small of stature, appeared in very gorgeous vestments.
"Oh, look, mama!" called out the enfant terrible in clear accents, "is that the monkey?"
New York Weekly, Farmer Acorn: I don't know what we'll do, Mrs. Underwood. The garden crop is all rotted by the rain, the fruit is all spoiled by the frost, the well water ain't fit to drink any more, and even our cow has gone dry - won't have a drop of milk for three months.

WISH to call attention to some nice lake-shore property on Spirit Lake, Iowa, consisting of 172 acres and 21 rods of lakeshore, giving room for about 10 cottages, including hotel or club house without crowding. This property occupies a promontory at the north side of the lake, opposite Hotel O'Leans, and has about $3,000 worth of improvements in the way of dwelling, barn, and other out-buildings, together with good well, fencing, etc. As a cool, airy situation it has no superior, if equal, about the lakes, and for picturesque beauty can't be surpassed in the state. Surrounding out in the lake as it does, gives the advantage of lake breeze from east, west, and south. An individual or parties clubbing together could make a grand thing of this property, as these lakes are the nearest accessible summer resort there is to the western cities. I am getting too old to bother with making further improvements, or I would not think of selling it. For price and terms call on or address William Hayward, my agent, Spirit Lake, Iowa, who will show parties over the grounds and give any information desired. Respectfully, P. C. Mosler.

Mr. Hughm. manager of the clearing house
for the associated banks of Omaha , reports
the clearings for the week as footing
8 , > ,25-TOlrt.l'i2 , an Increase of 233-10 per cont.
Balances footed JOOT.OfiO.OS. Tlio clearings for
the first six months of 1800 ( estimated Juno 30
nt .11,000,000) ) , footed $123,759,70 against
t97G ! , lil7 for the first HX ! months of ISM , an In-
crcncoof 200-10 percent , nnd an this percentage -
ago of Increase In the clearings U about the
same us merchants report their balance sheets
L. asshowng on nn average. It Is very evident
. that the past six months has been a prosperous
nnd satisfactory period to the mercantile com
munity .
Hankers report money plentiful and deposit
balances Increasing , and say there Is a fair
demand for loanable funds , with rates firm at
B per unit. Kxchango Is In aufllolont supply.
Tlio general trade In dry goods and boots and
Bhoos'ls somewhat quiet , but there Is u lively
demand for hard wan- , and jobbers In that line
say trudo Is unprecedented for this season of
tin ! year. Tlm clothing trade In rather dull ,
but In groceries and notions thorn Is a llboral
movement and Jobbers are fairly unity. Col
lections are said to bo good In mostl lues and
there are very few failures reported , nnd
thosixini for small amounts. It Is doubtful If
the wholesalers of Omaha have had a moro
satisfactory nprlng season for many years
than that Just past.
1'rlces rule steady , with the exception per
haps of sugars , which are demoralized and In
clined to go lower , but the tru.it may conclude
to put , them up Instead of down , and as It pos
sesses the power none but a mind reader with
facilities for an Interview with the chief ma
nipulator can tell what prices will bo from
lay to day. The decision of the New York
court of appeals against the sugar trust
naturally attracted considerable nltmi-
, tlou In commercial circles. "Two principles
nro Involved In the decision , " wild General
1'ryor of the counsel for the people.
first , all combinations tending to limit
production or enhance prices are Illegal ; and
f-ocond , by becoming n party Io such a com
bination , a corporation forfeits Its charter. "
Theolllrcrsof the trust say that the decision
means that as present constituted the trust Is
not a legal body and that they will take Im
mediate steps to legall/.o their organization.
The wtrlko of the Illinois Central railway em
ployes has been Imtmlly mttleil though at ono
tlmo It was teared It would extend through
out the entire system , In which ease much In-
couvenlelico would resulted to Dmaha mer
chants as this road and Its connections han
dles three-fourths of the southern fruits and
viv'Otnbles received here at this season.
lletall trade Is only fair , the Intense heat of
the past week serving to keep shoppeis at
homo , still dealers do not complain , but hay
that business Is bettor than It was a year ago.
The city trade Is done under different condi
tions In Omaha than even one year since. It
Is moro concentrated and Is In the hands of a
< Iozeu or fifteen largo department sliires which
are enabled by handling largo quantities of
merchandise , at a minimum of expense , under
the moro tlioiougli system and hot
ter management procurable undersoil the
smaller ilealers and present Inducements
In variety and prices which thoold fashioned
retailer eau not meet and consequently Kiillors
from and abhors as Illegitimate competition.
The foreign and Pacific dried fruit market Is
thus elmriioterlzid Dy the Now York C'oni-
meiclal Bulletin : "Thomarket is without Im-
poitanl change today. Orders for general
goods do not eomo forward with the freedom
that was anticipated for this period , but for
some lines rather greater Interest Is mani
fested , and Importers and dealers live In tlio
liono that a moro spirited demand
will bo mot with at an early-
day. Turkish prunes nro given the pref
erence by most In the trade , the full value required -
' quired by holders not being seriously opposed
by the trade. Ono lot of twenty-live casks
was obtained today at ( ! cents , but for smaller
quantities , aggregating probably twenty
casks , ( HJ cents was paid. This latter prlco Is
ilnnly demanded from the hands of tlio prin
cipal holders , and so continent are they of the
statistical position of the fruit that they

been an Increased Inquiry today , with sales

a moderate Jobbing trade reported upon this

a very spirited manner , but the failure of

upon holders' Ideas , 7'473ie b lng required

quite a liberal business doing in Jobbing
quantities. California are firm and In good
I'onsiiinptlvo request. Ultron is unchanged ,
nnd the same may bo said of peel , prunells
and llgs. Dates move very slowly at the
recent prlco concession , but at present values
there appears a steadier fooling. Walnuts- ,
almonds , lllborts and Brazil nuts are without
change ot importance ; Inquiries are limited ,
but pruvlous values Inmost Instances are well
sustained. "
Urcen fruits are In actlvo demand at hluher
prices and still higher figures are looked to
rule for lemons and oranges.
The census returns for Omaha ara known
with Niifllolcnt accuracy to warrant the claim
that the population Is lli.'i.OOt ) , nearly , an In
crease since 1SSO ot : tl3H per cent , and fully
up to the most sanguine estimates of conservative
vative local authorities. In 1880 Omaha had
Id.r.lS people , and stood slxty-fouith In the list
ot cities a.s to population , wlillo the present
census will pbico her twenty-third , and the
Industrial and commercial growth has been
( iiinmenxiirato with that of the population ,
If the population of South Omaha and of the
many suburban towns In the county bo added ,
n.s has been done by Chicago and other east
ern cities , Omaha's population will approxi
mate 175,000 souls , and there l.s no doubt Dut
what fully that number derive u livelihood
from her Industries.

rtKK.l The wheat market was without
breadth and strength most of the session to
day. The falling off In prices nt the start
was somewhat of a surprise. It was owing to
n lack of support the first few minutes rather
than any great soiling pressure. There was ,
however , a disposition to liquidate In July
and this gave the tllp to the other montlis.
The early depression did not last
long as bears worn na quick to
buy on the decline ni bulls. Among the best
buyers of the forenoon were Oudahy , Linn nnd
Konnott , nllclasscd as bear houses. Linn was
was n buyer In. Inly. There was no pounding
or raiding , but the apathy of the trade was In
favor of lower prices. There was no Import
ant nows. 1'rlvato cables were bullish. Liver
pool closed lowcrfor California futures. 1'ltts-
burg scuta bullish dispatch about bad weather
I'auslng unfavorable reports from Odessa.
Dakota sent dispatcher about the hot winds
nml " " wheat.
"scorching" Now York cleared
81,000 bushels. On this news , and the buying
referred to. prices recovered pretty quickly.
July from too early rallied to SoWu , August
from 8.V ( , a low point , rose
to StiXo. September sold nt BGUo curly
nnd up to S7o nnd December from 87Ho to 8S.Jc. !
thus putting nil months except July at better
figures than nt the close yester
day. Dispatches from the northwest
to both bull and bear houses
assuring them that the parching of the past
two days has really damaged spring wheat
gave rlso to a llrmor feeling before the close.
Shortly before 1 o'clock a few good round low
were taken In the pit and In a few mlnuto.V
tlmo prices moved up to SCo for July , Silfto for
August , 87Jo ! for September nnd 88&o for De-
comber. Those figures showed nn advance of
Ic straight for nil montlis over tlio bottom
prices tlio first hour. The extreme heat'JI = on
the floor , checked what otherwise might
have proved a rousing bull market. ' At tlio
close wheat was at about the Hrst prices : Juno
8. > Sc. July 80o for seller , August 8UH'c , Septem
ber 8"Ho and December SSSJe. .
The corn market was without outside In
fluences to all'oct prices and local trade did
little imt attempt small scalping operations.
The price of Juno was a shade under July and
quoted atltUSo at the closo. July sold at M'io
and : it.f@i4 | : c. closing at BlJJiW.ie ; August

There was little feature to oats until near
the close , when there was an attempt , to buy
July , ami there helm ; none for sale there was
a quick advance In the price for that month to
Me. August sold at au > o and Mile , closing
steady att'tiio September sold at " < i.io ! and
closed at "t'iBc. ! Ilutchlnson was a seller early.
Provisions were oxtieniely dull all day. In
activity led to weakness. Mes-t pork , with very
little business , showed a decline of liilc from
yesterday toJI-MK for July , with $1 .40 bid at
the close. August and September closed at

and closed 0 per cent over yesterday at 213.
Tills cut little flguro with other stocks Dull
ness was still the most prominent feature , oven
trusts being quiet , nnd lead was the most
actlvo of them. The market presented a firm
front , however , and the first prices , while some
what Irregular as compared with last night's
figures , were generally from"B ! to \ \
per cent higher. further fractional
advances were scored over the entire
list , wlillo Sugar refineries rose 1
perconttoTlVj , but professional pressure was
then brought to bear upon the list and every
thing yielded under tlio load of Chicago Gas
whtuh again hccnmo actlvo and decidedly
weak. The succeeding decline was generally
s'ulllclent to wipe out the early gains and ft
dropped from f > 7J * to 65y and Oregon Trans
continental from 4fi to 45 , but nil other
changes were fractional. The downward
movement met with a sudden check and Chicago
cage ( ias met- with a rally to 50 % . Kxtremo
dullness marked the remainder of the hour
and at 11 o'clock tlm market was dull nnd
steady nt abjilt the opening prices. It was
timing the closing hour thai tlio best strength
was shown. Transcontinental rose to 4l > 'ji ,
A tuhlson rose to4U , but lost a fraction later ;
Houk Island rose 1 jr.'r cent over last night to
UJ' ' { , wlillo other western stocks were up 't to

A STUEI3T-CAII PANTOMIME.
Singular Persons AVho Tiilk Without
SuyiiiK Anything.
You can see very fair pantomime in a
Broadway car nny divy , ways the Now
York Times. ' Tlio woman who stands on
the sidewalk and sets hot' parasol to go
ing up and down like the walking beam
of a bteamor wants to stop the cur.
Everybody recognizes the sign. Then
the woman who gets oil the ear with a
fiery glunco at the conductor and an aggressive -
grossivo shrug of the shoulders us she
pulls her skirts out of tlio mud means ,
as plainly , as if she yaid it , ' 'You , out of
the ovll that is in your heart , have car
ried mo a block too far. Yon should
perish from the faeo of the earth. Why
don't you ? "
Similarly the man who sits down in a
corner and sticks his feet where they
will do the most tripping np menus , "I
am entitled to a lot of room and I mean
to got it. " But the other day there eamo
a passenger who went way out of the
usual run of piintomimists. JIo was thin
and wild-looking , but well dressed. Ho
took a seat on the sunny side pf the car ,
and In 11 jiffy his arms wore ) in motion.
Apparently ho was making a speech
without words.
As the silent oration progressed the
man growoxeited. Turning to his neigh
bor at his left , ho made him the subject
of his discourse. IIo scorned to bo plead
ing with him to reform his ways. The
neighbor Iqoked embarrassed ; tlio other
passengers suppressed smiles with moro
or less success. Then the man wont on
with his gestures , getting more and
moro excited. Now and then ho
rose to his feet and stood until a jolt
of the car sent him back to his seat.
But ho was getting to the end of his
peroration , and suddenly , with a sweep
ing gesture , the speech was ended. The
man sank back in his seat nnd pulled ti
eigaretto from his pookot , while the
satisiled look came over his face that
ono sees on the countenance of a bashful
after-dinner orator when bo hears the
upplauso at the pud of his address.
J ust then a truok driver tried to cut
across the track ahead of the car , and
the driver of the latter vehicle put on
his brakes with nil his might. The car
stopped suddenly and the shock brought
the pantomlmist to his souses. He rose
hastily , mumbled something that
sounded like an apology to his neighbor ,
and got out of the car with all possible
spei'd. The neighbor's expression waa
a choice blending of disgust and relief.

Uf U4. | The Condition of Trade, Most Satisfactory Spring Season for Local Merchants in Many Years, Heat Handicaps the Retail Trade, Bankers Report Money Menace and General Trade in Dry Goods and Boots and Shoes Quiet.
Mr. Hughman, manager of the clearing house for the associated banks of Omaha, reports the clearings for the week as footing $8,250,012, an increase of 233.10 percent. Balances footed $630,050,306. The clearings for the first six months of 1800 (estimated June 30 at $11,000,000), footed $123,759,730 against $197, $617 for the first six months of 1890, an increase of 200.10 percent, and this percentage of increase in the clearings is about the same as merchants report their balance sheets, as shown on an average. It is very evident that the past six months has been a prosperous and satisfactory period for the mercantile community.
Bankers report money plentiful and deposit balances increasing, and say there is a fair demand for loanable funds, with rates firm at 5 percent. Exchange is in abundant supply. The general trade in dry goods and boots and shoes is somewhat quiet, but there is a lively demand for hard wares, and jobbers in that line say trade is unprecedented for this season of the year. The clothing trade is rather dull, but in groceries and notions there is a lively movement and jobbers are fairly busy. Collections are said to be good in most lines and there are very few failures reported, and those six months for small amounts. It is doubtful if the wholesalers of Omaha have had a more satisfactory spring season for many years than that just past.
Prices rule steady, with the exception perhaps of sugars, which are demoralized and inclined to go lower, but the trust may conclude to put them up instead of down, and as it possesses the power none but a mind reader with facilities for an interview with the chief manipulator can tell what prices will be from day to day. The decision of the New York court of appeals against the sugar trust naturally attracted considerable attention in commercial circles. "Two principles are involved in the decision," said General Pryor, counsel for the people, "the first, all combinations tending to limit production or enhance prices are illegal; and the second, by becoming a party to such a combination, a corporation forfeits its charter." The holders of the trust say that the decision means that as presently constituted the trust is not a legal body and that they will take immediate steps to legalize their organization.
The strike of the Illinois Central railway employees has been immediately settled though at one time it was feared it would extend throughout the entire system, in which case much inconvenience would have resulted to Omaha merchants as this road and its connections handle three-fourths of the southern fruits and vegetables received here at this season.
Retail trade is only fair, the intense heat of the past week serving to keep shoppers at home, still dealers do not complain, but say that business is better than it was a year ago. The city trade is done under different conditions in Omaha than even one year since. It is more concentrated and is in the hands of a dozen or fifteen large department stores which are enabled by handling large quantities of merchandise, at a minimum of expense, under the more thorough system and better management procurable under the smaller dealers and present inducements in variety and prices which the old-fashioned retailer cannot meet and consequently shuns from and abhors as illegitimate competition.
The foreign and Pacific dried fruit market is thus summarized by the New York Commercial Bulletin: "The market is without important change today. Orders for general goods do not come forward with the freedom that was anticipated for this period, but for some lines rather greater interest is manifested, and importers and dealers live in the hope that a more spirited demand will be met with at an early day. Turkish prunes are given the preference by most in the trade, the full value required by holders not being seriously opposed by the trade. One lot of twenty-five casks was obtained today at 5 cents, but for smaller quantities, aggregating probably twenty casks, 6½ cents was paid. This latter price is only demanded from the hands of the principal holders, and so confident are they of the statistical position of the fruit that they count upon materially flouting prices before the close of the season. For crates, there has been an increased inquiry today, with sales recorded at 6½ cents; some holders are unwilling to book orders below 7½ cents. Sultanas also have been given more consideration, with transactions today aggregating 1,500 boxes, the four sizes at 11¢. French remain steady and are jobbing fairly at 8¢ for the four sizes. For currants, the price remains at the asking price, with a moderate jobbing trade reported upon this basis. Valencia raisins are not sought for in a very spirited manner, but the failure of buyers to operate largely is without influence upon holders' ideas, 7,473 cases being required for firsts and 6,984 cases for seconds. Malaga remain in their previous position, The "Arganola," recently to hand, brought an additional 1,500 boxes, which at the time of shipment from Liverpool, were understood to be Valencia fruit. Sultanas are held firmly, with quite a liberal business doing in jobbing quantities. California are firm and in good consumer request. Clotures are unchanged, and the same may be said of peels, prunes, and figs. Dates move very slowly at the recent price concession, but at present values there appears a steadier feeling. Walnuts, almonds, clippings, and Brazil nuts are without change of importance; inquiries are limited, but previous values in most instances are well sustained.
Green fruits are in active demand at higher prices and still higher figures are looked to rule for lemons and oranges.
The census returns for Omaha are known with such accurate to warrant the claim that the population is 103,000, nearly, an increase since 1880 of 373 percent, and fully up to the most sanguine estimates of conservative local authorities. In 1880 Omaha had 18,751 people, and stood sixtieth in the list of cities as to population, while the present census will place her twentieth, and the industrial and commercial growth has been proportional to that of the population, if the population of South Omaha and of the many suburban towns in the county be added, as has been done by Chicago and other eastern cities, Omaha's population will approximate 175,000 souls, and there is no doubt but what fully that number derive a livelihood from her industries.
The following text is a corrected version of the article based on the context clues provided by the surrounding text and the instructions given in the challenge:
The auction of the prices paid in this market for the grade of steers, hogs, and sheep during the week has been noticeably lower than the previous week.

There was little feature to oats until near the close, when there was an attempt to buy July, and there was none for sale; there was a quick advance in the price for that month to $1.50. September sold at $1.00 and closed at $1.05. Hutchinson was a seller early. Provisions were exceptionally dull all day. Inactivity led to weakness. Mess pork, with very little business, showed a decline of 15 cents from yesterday to $1.40 for July, with $1.40 bid at the close. August and September closed at $1.45. Lard sold at $1.50 and closed at $1.60, or 50 cents lower for July. Short ribs closed at yesterday's prices.
CHICAGO STOCK EXCHANGE, June 25 (Special Telegram to THE BEE). OUTSIDE - Of 2,000 fresh receipts, there were barely 200 natives of all classes, as there were, at least, 1,800 Texans. A few good natives sold out at steady prices, but the rough and common stock was not wanted and there was only a light demand for butchers' stock due to the "big run of Texans," the latter selling a shade lower. Values on all grades of natives are 20 to 25 cents lower than a week ago today; $1.20 to $1.40 were top prices for first-class 1,500 to 1,600 steers and $1.70 to $1.80 the extreme for prime and suitable 1,400 steers; while good to useful steers of 1,230 to 1,400 sold as low at $1.50 to $1.70, and prime export steers at $4.10 to $4.23. Texas steers have sold from 10 to 15 cents lower.
Choice to extra beef, $1.40@$1.70; medium to good steers, 1,400 to 1,500 lbs, $4.20@$4.40; prime to 1,200 lbs, $1.40 to $1.80; stockers and feeders, $1.30@$1.60; cows, bulls, and mixed, $1.50. The bulk, 32 to $3.40; Texas grassers, $3.20@$3.60; steers, $2.60@$3.80. The values were again slightly lower, making a decline of 10 to 25 cents as compared with the top prices of a week ago today. The bulk of the mixed sold today was within a range of $5.50 to $5.75, a few as low as $5.20 and the best selected and choice heavy at $8.60. A few at $6.20 to $6.30; light sorts, $3.60 to $3.80.
NEW YORK, June 25 (Special Telegram to THE BEE). STOCKS There was little fancy work done in Pullman stock this morning and after opening 1 point up at 210, it touched 218 and closed 5 percent over yesterday at 213. This cut little figure with other stocks. Dullness was still the most prominent feature, even trusts being quiet, and lead was the most active of them. The market presented a firm front, however, and the first prices, while somewhat irregular as compared with last night's figures, were generally from 5 to 10 percent higher. Further fractional advances were scored over the entire list, while Sugar refineries rose 10 percent. But professional pressure was then brought to bear upon the list and everything yielded under the load of Chicago Gas which again became active and decidedly weak. The succeeding decline was generally sufficient to wipe out the early gains and it dropped from 75 to 65 percent and Oregon Transcontinental from 46 to 45, but all other changes were fractional. The downward movement met with a sudden check and Chicago Gas met with a rally to 50 percent. Extreme dullness marked the remainder of the hour and at 11 o'clock the market was dull and steady at about the opening prices. It was during the closing hour that the best strength was shown. Transcontinental rose to 41 percent, Yukon rose to 40, but lost a fraction later; Hudson rose 1 percent over last night to 32 percent, while other western stocks were up to 2 percent. Much of the late improvement was due to the showing of the banks in their weekly statements. Reserves were increased slightly, loans increased $1,250,000 and deposits increased $500,000. There was a perceptible firming of the market on the statements.
The following were the closing quotations:
MONEY Busy at 104 percent closed over $1 per cent.
EXCHANGE quiet, steady; Thirty-two bills, $1.80.

You can see very fair pantomime in a Broadway car any day, ways the New York Times. The woman who stands on the sidewalk and sets her parasol going up and down like the walking beam of a steamer wants to stop the car. Everybody recognizes the sign. Then the woman who gets off the car with a fiery glance at the conductor and an aggressive gross shrug of the shoulders as she pulls her skirts out of the mud means, as plainly, as if she said it, 'You, out of the over that is in your heart, have carried me a block too far. You should perish from the face of the earth. Why don't you?' Similarly, the man who sits down in a corner and sticks his feet where they will do the most tripping up men, 'I am entitled to a lot of room and I mean to get it.' But the other day there came a passenger who went way out of the usual run of pantomimists. He was thin and wild-looking, but well dressed. He took a seat on the sunny side of the car, and in a jiffy his arms were in motion. Apparently, he was making a speech without words. As the silent oration progressed, the man grew excited. Turning to his neighbor at his left, he made him the subject of his discourse. He scorned to be pleading with him to reform his ways. The neighbor looked embarrassed; the other passengers suppressed smiles with more or less success. Then the man went on with his gestures, getting more and more excited. Now and then he rose to his feet and stood until a jolt of the car sent him back to his seat. But he was getting to the end of his peroration, and suddenly, with a sweeping gesture, the speech was ended. The man sank back in his seat and pulled a cigarette from his pocket, while the satisfied look came over his face that one sees on the countenance of a bashful after-dinner orator when he hears the applause at the end of his address. Just then a truck driver tried to cross the track ahead of the car, and the driver of the latter vehicle put on his brakes with all his might. The car stopped suddenly and the shock brought the pantomimist to his senses. He rose hastily, mumbled something that sounded like an apology to his neighbor, and got out of the car with all possible speed. The neighbor's expression was a choice blending of disgust and relief.

This Is the nhopj of the Union Pacific rail

After being ushered Into his presence , if your
business Is of n legitimate nature , you are
Riven n psissport , which allows you to go from
Department to department , where you cnn see
the workings of the ponderous and Intricate
machines which manufacture everything from
Ihe drivowheel of n locomotive to thosmnllcst
tnek used In upholstering n car scat.
Probably In this great workshop , where
hundreds of skilled mechanics toll , there Is no
place ( if moro interest than the ear shops ,
located in the extreme northwestern corner
of the grounds occupied by the shops.
'Looking at them from the exterior thcso

Each gang of men Is In charge of a foreman ,
J. M. Hlco having control of the carpenters ;
J. Stout , the painters ; J. W. McCune , the
woodworkers ; G. E. Stratman , the up
holsterers ; 11. Anderson , the repairers ;
George Andrecn , the silver-platers , and Jacob
Ncff the truck and airbrake men.
The buildings in which thcso men work
covers n space of 170x400 feet nnd are two
stories high.
In building a car , J. W. McCuno goes to
the lumber yard , selects his timbers for the
frame work and has them taken into the
shops , where his men work them down to the
proper dimensions , square them up nnd
then turn them over to the carpenters who
nro under the directions of J. M. HIce.
These men have a more dlfllcult task to per
form , for they build the cur , framing and
putting It together.
As soon as this is done , everything is
turned over to the painters , who are under J.
Stout and in a few days , if it bo a freight
Kir , it has taken on a
brown color , iti white letters ,
Which comprise the words , "Union Pacp1 ! . ' , "
familiar from the Atlantic to the Pacific
coast.
While nil this is going on , if it bo n pas
senger couch that Is being constructed , Jacob
NelT and bis men are busily engaged lu get-
ling the tmcits nnd air brakes in place , and
Amlrccn's men are doing the sllverplating
to bo followed up by Strattniuu's. force of up
holstcrcrs.
This Is not accomplished in a day , nor is it
In a week. To build u coach requires from
Ibrce to four months , but when ono Is built , it
Is so perfect that It is sent out on the road
Without having to bo tested , though in other
thops cars uro frequently tested fo'r weeks be
fore being put Into fust trains.
Until a few'years ago most of the freight
cars and a largo number of the passenger
coaches , together with the mail , baggage and
express cars , were built In these shops ; but
since the system has constructed its now lines
the business bus become so enormous that
most of tlio cars have been built on contract
in the east , and the work of the shops hero
has been entirely in the nature of repairs and
rebuilding the coaches which have grown old
In the service or been damaged In wrecks. Of
th'cse , during the past three years , from ! I30
to 400 passenger coaches have passed through
the shops monthly. Many of them thatcomo
In out of wrecks are practically rebuilt , nnd
when they again leave the shops they are vir
tually new caw.
A passenger car us regards style Is like n
lady's bonnet. It will not wear out but the
etvlo will change to such an extent that it
will bo useless in the passenger trufllo mid
must bo put to some other uso. The history
of old No. 7 best illustrates this.
In 18ti7 the Omaha shop turned out No. 7 ,
its first passenger coach. In those days the
coaches wcro painted .a bright yellow , mid
this coach , with Its gaudy exterior , its ele
gant interior and Its low "deck" was the
envy of all eyes. It carried George Francis
Train to the coast , and when the ofllclals
came on from the cast it was always at their
Borvicc. At last , however , tho''high-decks"
became fashionable and No. 7 was put on as n
smoker mid for n time performed it-s duty In
this cupaclty.
The next thing complaints commenced to
como In and there was a crying demand for u
better car. Then it was run second class for a
time , and oven second class uassongers kicked
for bettor nccommodatlons. The next move
was to take the car Into the shous , glvo It a
thorough overhauling and send It up Into the
mountains torunonsomeof the now branches ,
where its style was satisfactory to the old
miners until people from the effete cast set
tled In that locality nnd objected to Its puss-
Ing through the towns. The old relic was
thnn imt , Into thn piMlirniiit. m rrii'n. whnm fni *
B few years it was considered good enough.
Once inoro , liowovcr , tlioro was n kick , and
oven the iK'ojilo from the other side of the
ocean refused to to ride in tlio old pioneer ,
end It was accordingly turned over to llm'
working crews , whom It Is now boliitf used. [
The history of thlw cur Is the history of till
other curs , and thus it Is readily seen that u
coach goes out of style loiiu buforo it wears
out.
Freight cars go through about the saiuo ex
perience. Seven years ago standard cars liml
u capacity of ten tons. Now they are consid
ered useless and the car with a carrying cu- '
paclty of f > 00oO ( ) pounds Is the standard. Bag-
Kago and express curs ( jo on forever , the style
never changing and many of tlio cars that
went out on the llrst overland trains are in
use today , though they hnvo been repaired
nnd repainted times without number. It Is
not generally supposed that a car can bo lost ,
BO perfect. Is tlio system of tracing , but such
Is the cnso. . Twelve years ago n passenger
car was turned out of the shop and In ono of
the boards on tlio sldo there was u knot that
when dressed down represented to some ex
tent a hiiinan face. This car was sent out In
nn overland train and In some manner , in
switching In Salt Lake City , was left out of
the train. A hunt was at ouco Instituted ,
Imt it could not bo found. Tracers
wore sent over the entire Bystetn , but
the car failed to show up ami In
the company's olllco It was charged up us lost ,
it having been supposed that it was caught
In u wreck and burned. Flvo years later , as
Mr. CollMt was walking down the yards , his
eyes caught u peculiar llguro on u car that
belonged to an eastern road and calling sev
eral of hU old-tlmo men about him , they at
once decided that it was the cur that had
been lost for so many years. It was at once
conllscated und upon the eastern road being
notified , no dunmud was intulo for the return
of the car.
The pattern room of the shops is n most
interesting department. It U situated on the
second lloor of the building the farthest east
nnd ' in it , in inlnlaturo , is every portion of
over'v style of car that bus been built in
Onuuia since the shops were established. In
the rear of this , ono finds the sliver plating
department , where George Audrecu mid his
trusty assistants labor.
To bo a sldllful plutcr , requires n man
to know something of chemistry , as
chemicals in certain proportions must
bo used in the electro-bnths , which
consist of huge tubs tilled with solu
tions. If silver plating is to bo used sheet
of pint ) Oliver one-sixteenth of an Inch In
thcKiieiS | : is suspended from u copper rod
wear the side of the tub , whllo from another
rod of similar material the article to bo
plntod la suspended. Tbo electric current is
Uicn turned on mid in a few hours the
of silver has disappeared , but it has not gone
out of existence. It has formed a coating
over a window stop , n screw head or n
thousand nnd ono other things that go to
beautify the intnrlor of llrst class passenger
coaches. .
The work of gold plating Is performed in
the same manner , though not to so uro.it an
extent. After coming from the bath thcso
articles have a dull appearance , but this soon
disappears lifter they have passed through
the hands of tha bunilshnrs.
For n tlmo after establishing the shops , the
disposition of the shavings , of which Iiupo
quantities dally accumulate , was n serious
question. IJut by an Ingenious contrivance ,
they are now readily disposed of. Over each
planing mnchlno nn opon-mouthcd plpo has
been placed. Thcso pipes pass through the
upper lloors whcro they connect with u
larger pipe , In which there Is a huge fan.
The engine which operates the machinery
keeps this fan In motion. The suction draws
the shavings into the plpo and carries them
to the furnace Ir. the rear of the buildings
where the two great 8oO horse power engines
are located.
Fatal accidents have been exceptionally
few , nnd the death rate In the shops .has
been loss per capita than in any other manu
facturing c. tnbllRhtncnt In the city. The
llrst mau tilled ' wits Ole John
son , n Swfcdo. This1 happened
In ISfVS. Ho was working on tha roof of the
building occupied by the planing mill , nnd
slipping , ho fell through the glass roof to the
floor below , a distance of thirty feet. Ills
skull was crushed nnd ho lived but two hours.
The car shrjps hnvo n lira department that
is unequalled and Is composed of twenty men
under the command of Charles Fisher. The
apparatus consists of u hotfo cart and the
Dunint steamer. The men nro thoroughly
drilled and caji cover any point In the shops
within three minutes from the tlmo the alarm
is turned It ) from the alarm system , which Is
Independent of the up-town circuit.
Onrpont rs' Olliucrs and
At n meeting held at Gate Ctty hull Tues
day evening the members of carpenters'
union , No. fiS , elected the following olllcers
for the ensuing quarter : President , Charles
Hicnhnrt ; treasurer , William B. Musser ;

tlio ( tnrliers Union.
Several months ago the barbers union took
up the Sunday-closing question , and By forc
ing it to an issue , went to pieces.
During the past few weeks , n number of the
members who favored closing on Sunday have
taken hold of the remnant of the old society
and have been able to once moro place it upon
Ita feet. Within n few weeks , ns u con
sequence , the light will bo foughtover again ,
with some assurance that the men who favor
the six day rule will come out winners.
Before going into this lust deal , they an
nounced that they had consulted the various
labor unions of the city and received pledges
of support which will not bo broken As be
fore , the light will bo between the shop
owners and the Journeymen , the shop owners ,
or n large n amber of them favor u seven-day
week , while , almost to u man , the jonsncy-
nicn will ask that six days shall constitute a
working week.
Hcci-iiitlng Tiillors.
A movement is now on foot to fill up the
tailors' union and make it ono of tuo strongest
labor organizations in the city.
Last season , with a full fledged strike on
its hands , and the members who wcro out ot
work to support , the treasury was depleted
und a disruption was threatened. Ltill. the
old organization was kept up alter u fashion'
although no business was transacted. This
.season the men Having had plenty to do , nnd
feeling in good syirits und lit peace with all
men. they have < ron out into' too byways and
hedges and gathered up the knights of the
needle and thimble until now the organization
has ! ) OU members in tno ranks , with
moro coming in at every meeting. They
point with considerable prile to the work
accomplished during the past six months , us
they claim that at Unit nimo there was only
three or I'oua union shops in the city , while
now , with three exceptions , the shop owners
will give meferenco to union men. So far
this season , work has been plenty and wages
fair , with do prospects of uny labor dilliculty.
Hod Carriers.
Two years ago the hod carriers boasted
that , In there union , they bed U0 ! mem
bers In good standing. The b ick layers'
strike that followed , worked sud havoc in the
ranks of the organization , and n few months
later , whllo their union was not broken up ,
its inllnenco was so weakened that it was
hardly reconlzed in the circles of united labor.
This season the go-ahead members have in
fused now life Into the old orga'nlzuti and have
put It upon , its feet , so that Ithas about gained
what it lost. To do this has required u vast
amount of work , but the prime movers not
knowing such n word as full , have not onjy
themselves became entousiiistio , but have
worked up this hamo feeling among the mem
bers , until now the organization holds its
regular meetings and promises much before
the end of the present season.

THE CLARKSON CHILD'S ' HOSPITAL.

A smell of chloroform , a slip half-wuy
through the open door , thtto doctors nproncd
with pure white cloth bending over the raised
couch , justn gllmiMoof nnaked-nrm lying
still along tho'whlto shoot. This passing
glance ono may get perhaps as ho enters the
hallway on the llrst lloor of. the Clarksou
memorial hospital on Dodge street.
The operating table stands covered with Its
white oilcloth and towels , a melancholy sight ,
In the mlddlo of the operating room. Hero at
the sldo Is the water tnblo with 1W army of
tin basins and towols. An abundance of
light comes through the north windows. The
room Is bare of "furnlturo , an oilcloth irrit and
the doctors' high stools complete Chu otitllt.
To return to the hall ono must pass through
the apartment of Mrs. Moore , the matron.
This Is a moro cheerful place , though occu
pied but n small part , of tho"tl'mo by its
owner , who continually busies herself else-
where. The reputation this plnco enjoys Is
duo largely to lt.i matron and attendants.
who are till practical nurses and delightful
women.
Directly across the hall is the p.trlor or
waiting-room , furnished plainly with nn
ubundnnco of easy chairs. On the Wall hangs
a half-length portrait of Bishop Clurkson.
The center tnblo Is furnished with books and
papers , and a largo tray Is llllcd with the
cards of visitors.
Up the stairs on the second floor are the six
rooms given to older patienta. Three uro
occupied. The cots stand with coverlets
tucked in waiting for expected newcomers.
Each room 1't.s its several chairs and dresser
and llttlo table. The iron cots with br.iss
trimmings are inndo up entirely in while.
Immaculate white linen Is everywhere. Tiio
nurses , with white caps and apron * , cool and
ready for everything , soothe the tired pa
tients quite as much us the medicines they
bring from the closet at tlio stairs' top. All
through the building is an air of cool cleanli
ness and the disagreeable odor of drugs
gives wuv to that pleasant one of abundant
roses 'I'he patients on this floor are all doing
well , ns , with two exceptions , is the c.isu
throughout the hospital. The patients amuse
themselves by rca'ding or by visiting each
other. Patients arc introduced by the nurses
or become acquainted among themselves and
call upon each other to gossip. It is surpris
ing how much they know of what is going on
"Indoors , " r.s they are given no information
by the nurses , who answer every inquiry
about another's health with "Ho is better , "
whether he is so or not. They will tell you
that Mrs. T. is to bo operated * upon when the
nuraoe are the only ones supposed to know it.
They pick it up from accidental remarks of
the nurses ancl compare notes when together.
The children are on the first mid third
floors , in little cots placed in rows along the
room's side. Two young boys with hip dis
ease are In the east room. Tlu-y have high
times u hen the doctor isu't doing anything
worse than joking them. One little fellow
will curls had Tin : BIB : before him , not read
ing , but looking at the pictures in the adver
tisements. The boy with the we.ik sr'no '
llrmly intends to bo monkey for soma organ
grinder when he gets out. . Two little girls
uro in the west room. All are provided with
tovs mul the kind nurses olten roii'l to them.
On the llrst floor where , as he climbs the
hill , ono often catches a glimpse of a little
body in nwhito gown , perhaps of a bare arm
or leg as they throw doll clothes at each
other , are two girls perhaps six years old and
a baby boy. One girl was too sick to look up
today , but the other sat by the window bath
ing her sick doll. i
Frederick Prayer is two and a half years
old and is afllicled with malignant cancer. In
deed , the nuitroii , who unselfishly devotes all
her spare time to him , says that it is but a
question of time till ho will die. He has a sad
story. His parents are both youngand when
the cancer began to grow on his face , and
Ignorant neighbors to tell great talcs of It ,
his young father deserted them all and has
not been heard from since. His mother is a
cook ut the Creche and bos a younger child
which she brought throJgh Wednesday's
rain to bo doctored at the hospital. The little -
tlo patient has been a bravo baby and has en
deared himself to the nurses by his wonder
ful brightness. But ho is sunk so low as to
remain in almost continual stupor. This per
sonal mention is made by request of Mrs.
Moore , the matron , in the hope that it will
reach the father and toucn him with some
sort of feeling for them.

Where and How the Union Pacific Makes Its Gilded Flyers.
The Evolution of the Log. The Blue, Progress and Decline of Old No. 7 How a Locomotive Car Was Found After Having Been Appropriated.
Down on the bottoms, at the foot of Cass Street, enclosed by a high board fence, which is painted a dull, cheerless brown, there is a beehive of Industry, the interior of which is but little known to the ordinary citizen who finally plods along the busy, bustling thoroughfares of the business portion of Omaha.
This is the shop of the Union Pacific railroad, and to reach there you must pass inspection at the outer gate, where you are turned over to John Wilson, assistant superintendent of motive power and machinery.
After being ushered into his presence, if your business is of a legitimate nature, you are given a passport, which allows you to go from department to department, where you can see the workings of the ponderous and intricate machines which manufacture everything from the drivewheel of a locomotive to the minutest tuck used in upholstering a car seat.
Probably in this great workshop, where hundreds of skilled mechanics toil, there is no place more of interest than the car shops, located in the extreme northwestern corner of the grounds occupied by the shops.
Looking at them from the exterior these buildings, which are painted the same dull color, present a cheerless and forbidding appearance. But when once inside the scene is changed and it is a pleasure to watch rough lumber, as it passes from hand to hand until, at last, as a result of the labor of human hands, you observe a beautiful car, capable of carrying its load of human lives in perfect safety.
The working force of the car shops, 414 men, is divided into seven gangs, over which A. M. Collect has general supervision, and that he understands his work there can be but little doubt, as he has been with the company twenty-two years, and twenty years of that time he has occupied the important position of general foreman.
Each gang of men is in charge of a foreman, J. M. Rice having control of the carpenters; J. Stout, the painters; J. W. McCune, the woodworkers; G. E. Stratman, the upholsterers; H. Anderson, the repairers; George Anderson, the silver-platers, and Jacob Neff the truck and airbrake men.
The buildings in which these men work cover a space of 170x400 feet and are two stories high.
In building a car, J. W. McCune goes to the lumber yard, selects his timbers for the framework and has them taken into the shops, where his men work them down to the proper dimensions, square them up and then turn them over to the carpenters who are under the directions of J. M. Rice.
These men have a more difficult task to perform, for they build the car, framing and putting it together.
As soon as this is done, everything is turned over to the painters, who are under J. Stout and in a few days, if it be a freight car, it has taken on a brown color, with white letters, which comprise the words, "Union Pacific," familiar from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast.
While all this is going on, if it be a passenger car that is being constructed, Jacob Neff and his men are busily engaged in getting the tracks and air brakes in place, and Anderson's men are doing the silver-plating to be followed up by Stratman's force of upholsterers.
This is not accomplished in a day, nor is it in a week. To build a coach requires from three to four months, but when one is built, it is so perfect that it is sent out on the road without having to be tested, though in other shops cars are frequently tested for weeks before being put into first trains.
Until a few years ago most of the freight cars and a large number of the passenger coaches, together with the mail, baggage and express cars, were built in these shops; but since the system has constructed its new lines the business has become so enormous that most of the cars have been built on contract in the east, and the work of the shops here has been entirely in the nature of repairs and rebuilding the coaches which have grown old in the service or been damaged in wrecks. Of these, during the past three years, from 130 to 400 passenger coaches have passed through the shops monthly. Many of them that come in out of wrecks are practically rebuilt, and when they again leave the shops they are virtually new cars.
A passenger car as regards style is like a lady's bonnet. It will not wear out but the style will change to such an extent that it will be useless in the passenger traffic and must be put to some other use. The history of old No. 7 best illustrates this.
In 1887 the Omaha shop turned out No. 7, its first passenger coach. In those days the coaches were painted a bright yellow, and this coach, with its gaudy exterior, its elegant interior and its low "deck," was the envy of all eyes. It carried George Francis Train to the coast, and when the officials came on from the east it was always at their service. At last, however, the "high-decks" became fashionable and No. 7 was put on as a smoker and for a time performed its duty in this capacity.
The next thing complaints commenced to come in and there was a crying demand for a better car. Then it was run second class for a time, and even second-class passengers kicked for better accommodations. The next move was to take the car into the shops, give it a thorough overhauling and send it up into the mountains for service on some of the new branches, where its style was satisfactory to the old miners until people from the effete east settled in that locality and objected to its passing through the towns. The old relic was then put out, into the pioneers' realm, whence from a few years it was considered good enough.
Once more, however, there was a kick, and even the people from the other side of the ocean refused to ride in the old pioneer, and it was accordingly turned over to the working crews, whom it is now believed used.
Freight cars go through about the same experience. Seven years ago, standard cars had a capacity of ten tons. Now they are considered useless and the car with a carrying capacity of 15,000 pounds is the standard. Baggage and express cars go on forever, the style never changing and many of the cars that went out on the first overland trains are in use today, though they have been repaired and repainted times without number. It is not generally supposed that a car can be lost, so perfect is the system of tracing, but such is the case. Twelve years ago, a passenger car was turned out of the shop and in one of the boards on the side there was a knot that, when dressed down, represented to some extent a human face. This car was sent out in an overland train and in some manner, in switching in Salt Lake City, was left out of the train. A hunt was at once instituted, but it could not be found. Tracers were sent over the entire system, but the car failed to show up and in the company's office it was charged up as lost, it having been supposed that it was caught in a wreck and burned. Five years later, as Mr. Collister was walking down the yards, his eyes caught a peculiar figure on a car that belonged to an eastern road and calling several of his old-time men about him, they at once decided that it was the car that had been lost for so many years. It was at once confiscated and upon the eastern road being notified, no demand was made for the return of the car.
The pattern room of the shops is a most interesting department. It is situated on the second floor of the building farthest east and in it, in miniature, is every portion of every style of car that has been built in Ogden since the shops were established. In the rear of this, one finds the silver plating department, where George Audrecu and his trusty assistants labor.
To be a skilled plumber, requires a man to know something of chemistry, as chemicals in certain proportions must be used in the electro-plating, which consists of huge tubs filled with solutions. If silver plating is to be used, sheets of copper one-sixteenth of an inch in thickness are suspended from a copper rod while from another rod of similar material the article to be plated is suspended. The electric current is then turned on and in a few hours, the copper has disappeared, but it has not gone out of existence. It has formed a coating over a window stop, a screw head, or a thousand other things that go to beautify the interior of first-class passenger coaches.
The work of gold plating is performed in the same manner, though not to so great an extent. After coming from the bath, these articles have a dull appearance, but this soon disappears after they have passed through the hands of the burnishers.
For a time after establishing the shops, the disposition of the shavings, of which huge quantities daily accumulate, was a serious question. But by an ingenious contrivance, they are now readily disposed of. Over each planing machine an open-mouthed pipe has been placed. These pipes pass through the upper floors where they connect with a larger pipe, in which there is a huge fan. The engine which operates the machinery keeps this fan in motion. The suction draws the shavings into the pipe and carries them to the furnace in the rear of the building where the two great 800-horsepower engines are located.
Fatal accidents have been exceptionally few, and the death rate in the shops has been less per capita than in any other manufacturing establishment in the city. The first man filled was Ole Johnson, a Swede. This happened in 1885. He was working on the roof of the building occupied by the planing mill, and slipping, he fell through the glass roof to the floor below, a distance of thirty feet. His skull was crushed and he lived but two hours.
The car shops have a fire department that is unequalled and is composed of twenty men under the command of Charles Fisher. The apparatus consists of a hose cart and the Diving steamer. The men are thoroughly drilled and can cover any point in the shops within three minutes from the time the alarm is turned in from the alarm system, which is independent of the up-town circuit.
At a meeting held at Gate City hall Tuesday evening, the members of carpenters' union, No. 65, elected the following officers for the ensuing quarter: President, Charles Richmond; treasurer, William B. Musser; corresponding secretary, William Mcldon; financial secretary, John Peterson.
In selecting a delegate to represent the union at the general convention of the carpenters and joiners, to be held at Chicago, August 4, William U. Musser was the unanimous choice.
The convention, which will be attended by delegates from every carpenters' union in the United States and Canada, will be in session two weeks. During that time, in addition to discussing labor questions, it will decide upon a scale of wages that shall be maintained in all cities where unions are in existence.
T. V. Powderly, Ralph Beaumont, and a number of other prominent labor advocates of the country will be in attendance to express their views and give advice upon the various subjects that may come before the convention.
The last gathering of the kind was held at Buffalo, N.Y., two years ago, and was attended by 800 delegates, this city at that time having been represented by Mr. Musser.
The Barbers Union.
Several months ago, the barbers union took up the Sunday-closing question, and by forcing it to an issue, went to pieces.
During the past few weeks, a number of the members who favored closing on Sunday have taken hold of the remnant of the old society and have been able to once more place it upon its feet. Within a few weeks, as a consequence, the fight will be fought over again, with some assurance that the men who favor the six-day rule will come out winners.
Before going into this last deal, they announced that they had consulted the various labor unions of the city and received pledges of support which will not be broken. As before, the fight will be between the shop owners and the journeyman, the shop owners, or a large number of them favor a seven-day week, while, almost to a man, the journeyman will ask that six days shall constitute a working week.
Seamstresses.
A movement is now on foot to fill up the tailors' union and make it one of the strongest labor organizations in the city.
Last season, with a full-fledged strike on its hands, and the members who were out of work to support, the treasury was depleted and a disruption was threatened. Yet, the old organization was kept up after a fashion, although no business was transacted. This season, the men having had plenty to do, and feeling in good spirits and at peace with all men, they have gone out into the byways and hedges and gathered up the knights of the needle and thimble until now the organization has 100 members in its ranks, with more coming in at every meeting. They point with considerable pride to the work accomplished during the past six months, as they claim that at that time there were only three or four union shops in the city, while now, with three exceptions, the shop owners will give preference to union men. So far this season, work has been plentiful and wages fair, with no prospects of any labor difficulty.
Hod Carriers.
Two years ago, the hod carriers boasted that, in their union, they had 100 members in good standing. The bricklayers' strike that followed worked such havoc in the ranks of the organization, and a few months later, while their union was not broken up, its influence was so weakened that it was hardly recognized in the circles of united labor. This season, the go-ahead members have infused new life into the old organization and have put it upon its feet, so that it has about gained what it lost. To do this has required a vast amount of work, but the prime movers, not knowing such a word as enough, have not only worked up this hamper feeling among the members, until now the organization holds its regular meetings and promises much before the end of the present season.
Clerks' Hours.
The central labor union committee has presented the petition for early closing to those who refused before and been favored with their names with the exception of A.D. Morse and Phil Lang, who refuse to sign it, and whose men claim to be satisfied with their present hours.
The union has taken action upon it, and it now rests between it and those firms for settlement. The clerks feel confident of success, claiming to be backed by the public, press, pulpit, labor unions, as well as many leading business men.
ALTERNATE NOTE:

THE LORD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE,
Some of the Things They Have Been Doing Recently,
THE CLARKSON CHILD'S HOSPITAL.
A Place Where the Little Ones Are Tenderly Cared For truly.
Dr. Scott on Donney College - Other Matters.
A smell of chloroform, a slip half-way through the open door, three doctors appeared with pure white cloth bending over the raised couch, just a glimpse of a naked-arm lying still along the white sheet. This passing glance one may get perhaps as he enters the hallway on the first floor of the Clarkson memorial hospital on Dodge street.
The operating table stands covered with its white oilcloth and towels, a melancholy sight, in the middle of the operating room. Here at the side is the water tub with an army of tin basins and towels. An abundance of light comes through the north windows. The room is bare of "furniture," an oilcloth ottoman and the doctors' high stools complete the outfit.
To return to the hall one must pass through the apartment of Mrs. Moore, the matron. This is a more cheerful place, though occupied by a small part of its time by its owner, who continually busies herself elsewhere. The reputation this place enjoys is due largely to its matron and attendants, who are all practical nurses and delightful women.
Directly across the hall is the parlor or waiting-room, furnished plainly with an abundance of easy chairs. On the wall hangs a half-length portrait of Bishop Clarkson.
The center table is furnished with books and papers, and a large tray is filled with the cards of visitors.
Up the stairs on the second floor are the six rooms given to older patients. Three are occupied. The cots stand with coverlets tucked in waiting for expected newcomers. Each room has its several chairs and dresser and little table. The iron cots with brass trimmings are made up entirely in white. Immaculate white linen is everywhere. The nurses, with white caps and aprons, cool and ready for everything, soothe the tired patients quite as much as the medicines they bring from the closet at the stairs' top. All through the building is an air of cool cleanliness and the disagreeable odor of drugs gives way to that pleasant one of abundant roses. The patients on this floor are all doing well, as, with two exceptions, is the case throughout the hospital. The patients amuse themselves by reading or by visiting each other. Patients are introduced by the nurses or become acquainted among themselves and call upon each other to gossip. It is surprising how much they know of what is going on "indoors," as they are given no information by the nurses, who answer every inquiry about another's health with "He is better," whether he is so or not. They will tell you that Mrs. T. is to be operated upon when the nurses are the only ones supposed to know it. They pick it up from accidental remarks of the nurses and compare notes when together.
The children are on the first and third floors, in little cots placed in rows along the room's side. Two young boys with hip disease are in the east room. They have high times when the doctor isn't doing anything worse than joking them. One little fellow will curl up with the Bible before him, not reading, but looking at the pictures in the advertisements. The boy with the weak spine firmly intends to be a monkey for some organ grinder when he gets out.
Two little girls are in the west room. All are provided with toys and the kind nurses often read to them.
On the first floor, where, as he climbs the hill, one often catches a glimpse of a little body in a white gown, perhaps of a bare arm or leg as they throw doll clothes at each other, are two girls perhaps six years old and a baby boy. One girl was too sick to look up today, but the other sat by the window bathing her sick doll.
Frederick Prayer is two and a half years old and is afflicted with malignant cancer. In deed, the matron, who unselfishly devotes all her spare time to him, says that it is but a question of time until he will die. He has a sad story. His parents are both young and when the cancer began to grow on his face, and ignorant neighbors to tell great tales of it, his young father deserted them all and has not been heard from since. His mother is a cook at the Creche and has a younger child which she brought through Wednesday's rain to be doctored at the hospital. The little patient has been a brave baby and has endeared himself to the nurses by his wonderful brightness. But he is sunk so low as to remain in almost continual stupor. This personal mention is made by request of Mrs. Moore, the matron, in the hope that it will reach the father and touch him with some sort of feeling for them.
A Thriving Institution.
Rev. Alfred Scott spent the past week in Crete attending the commencement exercises of Doane college, the principal Congregationalist educational institution of the state. Last Sunday he preached the baccalaureate sermon before the graduating class and throughout the week participated in the exercises.
The college closed on Thursday.
The graduating class this year consisted of seven young men and one young woman, it being the second largest class that ever left the institution, the largest containing nine graduates.
"The college during the past year," said Mr. Scott yesterday, "has enjoyed a larger attendance than ever before, the total number of pupils being 225. It owns three large brick buildings that cost $36,000, and 80 acres of land which is located on a high knoll just east of Crete overlooking the Blue River.
"The institution is eighteen years old and during its existence has graduated in the full college course sixty students.
"The college has had a very successful year. Its income from all sources was $8,500. Out of this the permanent fund was increased by $3,000 and the indebtedness of the college was decreased by $1,500; and all the current expenses were paid.
"This is very encouraging, and we look forward to seeing an even greater construction of affairs."
An Institute of Theology
Many of the ministers of the city will go to Yankton, S.D., next Monday, to attend an institute in theology that will be held there during the week.
The following interesting programme has been arranged for the celebration and instruction of the ministers who attend:
A. H. Oliphant, Historian of the Allison Arch, Hilton, Mills - "Lutheran Polity;" one lecture each day, 10 a.m. to 10:45 a.m.
Ernest Luhn, D.D., Pastor of the Christ Church, Oberlin, O., "The Pastor With His Church;" one lecture each day, 10 a.m. to 10:45 a.m.
Theodore L. Smith, D.D., Professor of Theology, Boston University, "How to Interpret the Bible;" one lecture each day, 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.
The programme for the evening session will be as follows:
July 5 - Devotional service and welcome.
July 6 - Lecture by Rev. M. N. Urlin, Shreveport City.
July 7 - Some missionary rally, led by Dr. Morellth.
July 8 - Lecture "Attitudes of Gettysburg," by one who fought there; Dr. Brand.
July 9 - Lecture by Dr. Quint.
July 10 - Lecture by Dr. Meredith,
Dr. Meredith, one of the lecturers, is a relative of Mr. VrcA Gray of this city prior to going to Yankton will spend a few days in this city, arriving here about the middle of this week.
Adjourned for the Summer
Last Monday evening "The Club," a social and literary organization of Trinity Episcopal parish, held the closing meeting of the season at the pleasant home of Mr. George W. Lining. Mr. Clement Chose read an interesting paper on the life and work of the composer Schubert, which was beautifully illustrated upon the piano and in song by Miss Boulter and Madame Montofring.
After this, refreshments were served and the remainder of the evening was spent in delightful social intercourse.
"The Club" has been an eminent success and has done more towards bringing together and cementing a friendship amongst the young people of Trinity church parish than any other thing than a social organization such as "The Club" could have done. No other meetings will be held until after the hot weather.
An Energetic Preacher
With characteristic energy, Rev. O. W. Savidge has started out to mislead funds to pay off the indebtedness with which the Newman Methodist church is incumbered. This amounts to $3,500 on the lot and building and Mr. Savidge is endeavoring to raise the funds by individual subscriptions. These, he said, will not be confined to members of the church, as there are a great many people who are not church-goers but who have signed a will-list to assist him in his work. Mr. Savidge is very enthusiastic in his new field and has been greatly encouraged by the loyal support he has received from his parishioners.
New Workers in the Vineyard
Out of a class of six graduates from the Seabury Episcopal divinity school at Faribault, Minn., three were of this diocese, and two of these three were members of Trinity cathedral branch of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew. Mr. J. E. H. Simpson and Mr. Isaac Houlgong were ordained by Bishop Worthington and have been assigned to work in his diocese. Mr. J. B. H. Leeds was also ordained deacon, but he will spend a few months in England before taking up his work in Nebraska.
Dean Gardner will deliver an address before the Omaha and Council Bluffs Chautauqua assembly on July 15.
The adult members of Trinity choir enjoyed themselves at Syndicate park on Wednesday afternoon.
Five thousand dollars have been subscribed towards the new organ for Trinity cathedral. Fourteen hundred dollars is yet needed, but it is expected that it will be raised without difficulty.
At a meeting of the presbytery of Omaha held at the First church in this city, Mr. C. C. Kyle, junior-elect of Majors congregation, was ordained to the ministry and a committee consisting of Rev. J. C. Lynn, Rev. E. B. Graham, and Elder I. A. Deanowski appointed to attend to his installation.
The meeting of the vestry of St. John's Episcopal church, called for last Thursday evening for the purpose of choosing a new rector, was adjourned without action to next Wednesday evening.
Rev. Willard Scott will leave the city on July 21 for a six weeks' vacation which he will spend in the vicinity of Boston, preaching six Sunday mornings upon invitation at the Emanuel church in that city.
Hereafter, the First Presbyterian church and the First Congregational church will be united for Sunday services during the extreme hot weather, one keeping open one Sunday and the other the next.
Many churches will abandon the Sunday evening services during the hot weather, beginning today. A number of Sunday schools have also been closed for the summer.
Dr. A. R. Throop has returned from his fishing excursion to Madison, Wis., and will occupy the pulpit at the Plymouth church.
He stopped at Tabor, Neb., on his way home and last Sunday even sang in the students' choir at the college at that place.
Rev. Ell Corwin, an eloquent preacher from Chicago, preached in the St. Mary's avenue church last Sunday morning and will tomorrow occupy the pulpit of the Congregational church in Council Bluffs. Towards the end of the week, he will leave Omaha for Palmer Lake, Colo., where he goes to conduct a Chautauqua assembly. He will occupy pulpits in the Denver church three Sundays.
The degree of doctor of divinity has been conferred upon Rev. John Askin of Kearney by Reformed college in Illinois.
Rev. S. F. Berry passed through the city a few days ago. He has closed his work at Fremont and was en route to Ottumwa, Iowa, where he will assume a pastorate.
The ladies' sewing circle of the Newman church gave a lawn social at the home of Mr. L. O. Jones Thursday evening. The receipts will be used towards paying the church debt, this being the first of a series of entertainments to be given by the society to raise funds for this purpose.
The Nebraska Chautauqua assembly will hold its ninth annual session at Crete during the first twelve days of July. A most attractive programme has been arranged for the series.
There are forty-nine Jewish synagogues in New York.
The word "its" only occurs once in the whole of the Bible.
Efforts are being made to establish a Norwegian Lutheran college in North Dakota. The plot is not yet definitely known.
Dr. William M. Taylor is working away gathering pledges for the endowed ministers' fund, for which he hopes to become $50,000. He has already got about $30,000 of it.
Bishop Hurst of the Methodist Episcopal church is to visit the principal universities of Great Britain and the continent in order to reconnoiter plans and make proposals for the proposed Methodist university in Washington, D.C.
An interesting development in the Christian endeavor movement is the formation of floating Christian Endeavor societies recently formed on some of the revenue liners and other vessels. From quarters Dr. Docter and Gallatin come excellent reports of work already done.
The treasurer's report of the American Tract Society shows that the total receipts for the year were $5,415, with a balance on hand of $5,601. The society has issued 7 distinct publications. It has six periodicals with an aggregate circulation of 413,000.
The anniversary of the American Sunday school union was held at Trenton, N.J., recently. The new schools organized during the year number 1,381, with 104,342 scholars; schools added 11,783, with 120,705 scholars; previously reported, 1,687, with 6,036 scholars.
It is expected that the Congregationalists will hold an international congress in London in July, 1901. The committee recommends that the council consist of 100 delegates from England, 100 from America, and 100 from the rest of the world. Dr. Stanton of Brooklyn will be asked to preach the inaugural sermon.
The report looking to a federation between the German and the Dutch Reformed churches having been adopted without a dissenting vote by the former body, its acceptance by the Dutch church is regarded as assured. The agreement does not blot out any of the synods, but leaves the institutions under their proposed control, provides for harmonious action in mission work, in publications, and in new institutions of learning.
A highly valued manuscript copy of the gospels, written in letters of gold on purple vellum, dating about the seventh century, is, as reported, to be soon offered for public sale in London. Six years ago it was purchased for the Prussian government at a sale of manuscripts belonging to the duke of Hamilton. Six thousand pounds were offered for it by an English bookseller. It is said that there are only three or four manuscripts of the same kind in existence.
The statistics of the Christian Endeavor societies show that societies exist in every state and territory in the union and in every English-speaking land in the world. In all there are 11,381 societies, with 2,500,000 members; a gain of 1,941 societies and 80,000 members in six months. This equals the entire membership of the society during the first seven years. New York leads the list with 1,805 societies; Pennsylvania follows with 818, then comes Massachusetts with 541, Illinois with 536, Ohio with 531, Connecticut with 493, New Jersey with 411, and Michigan with 454.
So far as can be ascertained, an average of about seven from each county have joined the evangelical churches during the year, or a total of 70,000; a number equal to about two-thirds of all the associate members at the beginning of the year.
At last accounts, Bishop William Taylor, sick with bronchitis in Liberia and unable to go to the Congo as he had planned, it is the wonder of all who have known of Bishop Taylor's exploits that he did not die long ago. He has the remarkable habit on his marches of sleeping outdoors on the ground, with a stone for a pillow, says the New York Sun. The night air in the malarial Congo valley is regarded as anything but healthful, and old stagers easily say a month of the unnecessary exposure the bishop seems to court would be the death of them, but he deems to bear a charmed life, and few would have made such fast time tramping down the Congo as this remarkable missionary, who, though nearly seventy years old, can beat any of his band digging irrigation ditches, and has thought nothing of marching for weeks under the tropical sun and dropping down beside the path at dark for a sleep.

No man or woman now living will ever date a document without using the figure 0. It appears in the third place in 1600, where it will remain for 200 years and then move up to second place in 1900, where it will rest for one hundred years.
There is another "0" which has also come to stay. It is unlike the figure 0 in ordinals in the respect that it has already moved up to first place, where it will permanently remain. It is called the "No. 0" and Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine. The "No. 0" was endorsed for first place by the experts of Europe at the Paris Exposition of 1869, where, after a severe contest with the leading machines of the world, it was awarded the only Grand Prize given to family sewing machines, outdistancing all others on exhibit having received lower awards of gold medals, etc. The French Government also recognized its superiority by the decoration of Mr. Nathaniel Wheeler, President of the company with the Cross of the Legion of Honor.
The "No. 0" is not an old machine improved upon, it is an entirely new machine, and the Grand Prize at Paris was awarded it as the grand champion in sewing machine mechanism of the world.

"If you don't want the nattoifal election
bill to become 'a law you must beat It in tlio
house , " was the word Senator Hansom ol
North Carolina and his colleagues sent to the
bourbons In tlio lower branch of congress
late yesterday afternoon. And they added
this information : "There Is not a republican
senator who will speak or vote against it. "
This message to the Philistines of the
house was sent in verbal form after the
democrats In the senate had made sufllcicnl
Inquiry to lead them to bcllevo that their
proposition to hasten adjournment by the
speedy consideration of nil other general
measures if the election bill was not taken
up at this session would bo' rejected. There
is now but ono thing , so far as the human ken
or genius can sec , in the way of the llnal
adoption of the election bill within a fort
night. It would bo no dlftleult thing to scl
aside the tariff and puss thu elections bill ll
there wivs any rule by which do bate in tlu
senate could bo terminated and a qucstior
brought to n vote. It would not bo n difllcull
matter to fix by a majority vote of the senate
a day for terminating debate upon n question
after a rule was adopted by a majority vou
if it were not that there would betalkoboui
a "gng rule" and a "force measure. " Un
d oubtedly a little capital would bo made bj
unscrupulous demagogues among ignoranl
persons if this should bo done , but the conn-
try understands quite well now what kind 01
a minority tlio republicans have to deal will
and there is little doubt that tlio majority it
the senate have made up their minds to rule
by p reference with the greatest deference tt
the wishes of an unwieldy minority
but by dint of firmness If necessary. For
while it looked as though there would be
quite a number of southern republicans in the
bouse who would vote against the elections
bijl , but the debate thus far has demonstrated
that there will bo no republican votes against
It from general principles.
Mr. Edwards of North Carolina , it is
stated , opposes the bill not because ho thinks
it unwise in any respect , but because he re
gards it as an administration measure and he
imagines himself out of Joint with the admin
istration. His most intimate friend made
this statement to your correspondent this
evening : "There may be two or three repub
licans in the house wtio will vote against the
bill on general principles , because they think
it will bo detrimental to party interests
in localities , but it is not likely the bill will
have less tliau ten or twelve' majority in the
house. The democrats now say there will be
no republican vote against it in the senate ,
whereas a month ago it was stated and with
some degree of truth that a eto en republi
can senat&rs questioned the propriety of
such a measure at this time to the extent ol
having nnulo up their minds to defeat consid
eration at this session If possible and vote
.against it If necessary to prevent its ultimate
adoption. The debate in the house has put
everybody to studying the bill , and tlio more
it is studied the more righteous the republi
cans regard It.
A ciiAxonAiiLR coxeiitr.ss.
It was not twenty-four hours after the sen
ate's amended silver bill was referred to tlio
house committee ) on coinage , weights and
measures before free coinage began to very
rapidly decline in popular fayor hero. After
all , tlio demand for free coinage on the partoi
men in the sonata anel house proved to bo
but a sentiment. Not a single man could bo
found who would not frankly acknowledge
that either -4,500,000 ounces or SViOO.OOO ol
coinage per month would more than consume
the supply from American mines. The
strongest argument that has been made in
favor of unlimited coinage is that it fives
free raw material for the manufacture of
money and impresses the world with tlio fact
that this government intends to make , per-
mancntlyi silver a standard money value and ,
therefore , our silver mining interests are to
bo recognized as foster industries on the purt
of the federal government.
After all men in congress nro about as
easily swayed by excitement and popular
clamor as ordinary people in private life.
When the liouso bill was taken up In the senate -
ate that body was committed at least a de
cided majority of it to limited cpinage.
Scarcely a dozen senators believed that it
was possible to pass mi unlimited measure ,
but u Hood of telegrams from western states
impressed a number of republican senators
that there was a clamor for unlimited coin-
ago. Then the democrats put their heads to
gether and thought it would bo n great
scheme to pass a bill such as had not been en
dorsed by the administration , and the
two elements succeeded in running
free coinage through with a whoop.
Immediately that the senate adopted
unlimited coinage the house , which was com
mitted to the Wiiulom limited bill , became as
n cam ti of savages and demanded immediate
consideration of the bill ns it was amended by
the senate. The public-is familiar witlx the
three days of cxcitiug contest by which a
number of wild freoeoinago men , with the
assistance of the democrats , attempted des
perately to wrest from Speaker Kced the
highest rule and privilege of the house that
of natural reference to committee of a bill before -
fore its consideration. Twenty-four hours
after the bill was referred to committee mem
bers on both sides seemed to begin the col
lection of their better Judgment , and in less
than forty-eight bom's it 'was conceded that a
large majority of tlio house acknowledged its
rashness and was anxious to adopt a limited
measure. U'lien thu free coinage men in the
senate began to consider the rash action of
the free coinairo people in the house , they
also experienced. a change of better judgment.
ur.runucANs KKKPIXO ruoMisus TO SOMHGIIS.
If any ono believes that the 'republican
party lias not fulfilled its pledges mndo to the
soldiers during the campaign of IfcSS he is not
acquainted with the legislation of this con
gress. It is estimated that the natural growth
of the pension roll under the present laws
since the dependent bill which was finally
agreed to in the senate the other day has bc-
eomo u law will within a vcar or two aggre
gate nearly * 170,000,000 a year. When Presi
dent Harrison began the management of fed
eral affairs the pension roll onlv slightly ex
ceeded $100,000COO a year. It will bo seen
that the expedition of tlio business in the
pension otlice and the laws of thia republican
congress have combined to do everything
possible for the soldiers. There was a de
mand for universal pensions which had a
very profound impression upon the president
and which appealed from his natural Inclina
tions to trlvc the proposition support. The
only reason that congress has not provided n
universal pension bill U that It is
feared by many conservative republi
cans It may bo a mistake. Free sugar
nud the abolition of ccnaln tobacco taxes
moans a decrease in the revenues or In round
numbers of JSO.000,000 u year , and with tlio
increase of the annual pension roll of about
an equal amount and liberal expenditures for
the Improvement of rivers und harbors and
the construction of public buildings will bring
the expenses of tiio govcrnnU'iit down to as
low n point as the revenues will warrant.
The history of legislation sho.vs that all Im
portant steps in the interest of the soldier
have been taken under republican adminis
trations. This congress has passed moro
private pension bills that the first session of
the last congress , und tlio president has not
vetoed n single privuto pension measure ,
while President Cleveland vetoed moro than
a hundred. The record of this congress in
the mutter of pensions and the action of the
prcsldi'ut ia uttachiui ; his signature uad giv
.
ing his moral ns well as ofUclai support is in
sharp contrast with that of two years ago ,
COMl'L'LSOUY EDUCATION OKIXDlAJf ClttUIIlCX.
Tlio senate has passed a bill providing for
the compulsory education of.jlmllan children.
The secretary of the interior' is directed to
have a census taken of tho'.lndlan children
between the ages of eight and eighteen years
and require the attcndanco. of each child at
school for at least flvo years. Industrial
boarding schools are to be established on
every Indian reservation where there nro
more than five hundred Indians and the
children trom the smaller reservations uro to
bu sent to the schools on the nearest larger
ones. The children nro to bo taught useful
labor in addition to reading , writing , arith
metic and other rudimentary branches. The
boys are to bo instructed In agricultural pur
suits and some mechanical trade for which
they shall show the greatest aptitude , and
the girls uro to bo Instructed in housework ,
the care of poultry and other employments
suitable to their sex. Such a bill has been re
ported favornuly from the Indian committee
of the house and Is on the Calendar , so that it
is likely to become a law if ; it is reached be
fore the end of the session. !
A IIOXANZA roil DI
A law was passed not llong ago offering
amnesty to deserters from the regular army
under certain conditions , and all whoso
offense occurreel more than five years ago can
surrender themselves' to the ) commanding
officers of the nearest military post , and after
an investigation of their , cases , obtain an
honorable discharge. The object of this law
was to clear up the records of certain wealthy
gentlemen who were formerly in the army ,
but deserted a generation or more ago , and
have since been in constant terror lest they
might bo apprehended and sent to
prison. There are ot course thous
ands of ethers to whom it is n
great relief and who will'tako ' advuiitajjo of
Its provisions , but they could not have com

the west It was difficult t < ( keep men in the
army. Many enlisted solely for the purpose
of securing free transportation to California ,

and afterwards deserted 'wid took refuge in
the mining districts. It ia said that there
are thousands of such inen in tlio west ,
today , wealthy and prosperous , some
of them worth largo sums of money ,
but they have all lived in constant danger.of
arrest anel been victims' of blackmail from
these who know their records. An old ar
tillery officer told mo the , , other day that hemet
mot in California not long ago a man worth
-MO.000,000 who had been'a member of bis
company anel deserted in 1831. Ho went into
the mines and got rich and was highly re
spected , but lived in constant terror lest his
secret should bo discovered. The same ofll
ecr knew another rich .man In the
same state whoso circumstances were similar
and had paid thousands and thousands of
dollars in blackmail. O'Brien , the partner
of Flood and Maekay , Is said to have been a
deserter , and some of the ( richest and best
men In Arizona are down on the army

But to the game.
The day was ono of these incomparable
ones , and Iho usual Sunday crowd was on
hand to witness the sport.
And how they did shout and cheer the
brilliant plays of the homo team interspersed
so lavishly throughout the wlioio conflict.
It was a great game and u greater victory.
To shut the Corn Huskcrs out was an
achievement even the boldest did not dare to
anticipate.
But the Black Sox did it , and just as easy
as the orycsipelas , at that.
Eleven to naught was the size of it.
Sioux City came on the Held ns confident
and full of pranks us a lot of yearling colts ,
but when they left in the evening with u
whole 'bus full of goose eggs they were the
saddest eyed , most hagguvd.and woo-begono
looking crowd you ever beheld.
.Takoy Strauss , particularly , felt guilty.
He caught like a chump and put in much of
his valuable thno making faces at the crowd
in the grand stand.
And may bo they didn't guy him.
Ho was so mad at one time that ho came
pretty nearly biting himself.
The first three innings were blanks for
both sides , but in the fourth Omaha broke
the icft
Walsh opened up withalmndpainted single.
Ho stole second without turning a hair , and
his numerous friends shouted with Joy. llan
rahan struck out. Walsh didn't like this , so
ho just gave his belt a hitch and stele third.
You could have heard the noise that fol
lowed this exploit oSnilc , but it was nothing
to the wave ot soundmat brokoovor the pane
when ho capped the climax by stealing homo.
And the Com Huskcrs looked llko u lot of
monkeys.
In the fourth , on two little hits , three steals
and three errors the Black Sox got homo four
more.
The sixth added another tally to the score ,
the seventh three more and the ninth a brace 1
And all this time the Corn Huskcrs had
been stepping up and sitting down with the
regularity of clock work.
Clarke was at ills very best , and pitched
one of his old timo'games , and ho received
the fullest meed of praise from the specta
tors.
Every body was glad to see him back at
himselLfor tliey all know that lie is the king
of the western association when in form.
Moran caught finely and Walsh batted like
a Tilan , and played the most cunning game
.you over saw. When ho was on the bases it
just resembled a red streak from llrst to the
plate.
Hnnralmn , too , was given nn ovation , and
is bound to bo a great favorite , llo brought
the stands down when , in the llftli inning ,
he picked Brosnau's high lly from oil thu
very fence.
Well , Sioux City went away from hero
very thoroughly slathered with whitewash ,
and that's glory enough.

It was grand opera.

gram to Tin : Bins.Tho situation in the
freight handlers' strike In East St. Louis re-
raulus about unchanged. The strikers held a
meeting today and decided not to accept tlio
terms rffercd by tlip railroads and are de
termined to stay out until the roads come to
terms. Tlio latter have a few green hands at
work , but very little is being done in the
freight houses , as tlio mw men know little or
nothing of the work required of them. It is
stated also that should the roads not ucccdo
to the strikers' demand , the transfer drivers
and ether members of the American Federa
tion of Labor who are immediately concerned
'in tlio freight handlers' movement will join
tlio strikers tomorrow.
Another rumor currant tonight is that
should the threatened move on the part of the
transfer drivers provo true tlio roads will
accede to tlio demands made by the freight
handlers. The suporintonelonts are to hold a
meeting tomorrow morning at which a de
cision will likely bo readied.

JUSTICE DEFINED BY'AN ABLE JURIST.
Just HI ) Far an nn Individual Is Do *
lirlvcd ol'llln Personal Kleins to
That U.xtont. Is Ho in
Slavery.
CniOAfo.Tuno ! CO. Ten thousand pcoplo
who attended Iho annual games of the
tumors soclelles of Chicago listened to t\
letter from the well known Jurist , Judgu
Murry F. Tuloy , which aroused decided
Interest. The letter was addressed to the
Chicago district tumors ns members of the
1'orsonal Rights league and was read
by President Dyrcnfurth of the
league. In the letter Judge Tuloy
soys ho regards their organization
ns ono of the most Important factors In the
preservation of the liberties of the people now
In existence. "Just so far , " says the Judge ,
"as nn individual Is deprived of his personal
rights , Just to that extent is ho In slavery.
Every law which directly or indirectly for
bids the cxcrciso of or abridges a man's
'personal rights' deprives him to that extent
of Ills liberty. . But the danger to liberty
is not so much from unequal or
tyrannical legislation as from Iho ignoring of
written laws and usurpation by executive
oftlcors of powers and authority not gran ted
by law. Where ( us in the city of Cnica'go )
the police arrest upon bare suspicion and
without warrant persons not found In the net
of violating the law , when the poltco under
take to determine who shall and who shall
not meet In open public assemblages to
discuss political or economic questions ;
when trial by newspaper is substituted for
trial by jury ; when 'original packages'of
slander mid vindication are hurled at ( lie
highest court of the nation because of its de
cisions favoring personal rights and freedom
of commerce ; when upon almost every
article of food , drink and clothIng -
Ing n flcticious price is inndo
by means of unlawful trusts and combinaj
tions , it is time , I say , not only to call a halt ,
but to establish personal rights leagues iu
every school district , every county , every
state in the union. Let your organization
proclaim it to bo the lirst duty of every
citizen to obey the law , whether
ho bo ofllecr or private citincn.
Demand that there shall bo absolute equality
of every citizen before the law , in the admin
istration of the law and under tlio operation
of the law. Persevere in your opposition to
all sumptuary and vicious legislation and
teach the people that if they wish to perse
vere their liberties there must bo eternal vigi
lance in the protection of personal rights. "

Mr. GiiRtln TliinlCN it tlio Only Solu
tion ol' tlio Kullroad Problem.
WIST : Ki\iixir : : , Nob. , Juno 23. To the
Editor of Tin : Bnn : Your editorial on "Tho
Knilroads Delimit" in your issue of Juno 2(5 (
foreshadows tlio light that will soon bo made
in the supreme court of the United States. I
believe tlio result of that light will bo that
the commission has no authority to Interfere
with transportation charges.
Once admit the validity or the watered
stock of the railways , telegraph and express
lines and a showing for the whole systems
will ba made bearing out the false showing
of net earnings on investments in those- lines
of only about fi per cent as was made out but
within a few days for Nebraska in the Beh-
ton-Cowdry-Stccn railroad report. Yet the
managers paid out $ > S,000 per milo on the B.
it M. main line , which is accepted as true
and no reported by tills Ilndlng.
There is no use to waste time
lighting liens on the railroad hyena. It Is
best to ] iut the animal inside tlio bars of pub
lic control at onco.
If the railroads nro private property they
will bo unstained by tlio supreme court in dic
tating charges regardless of public opinion.
The remedy in its full mcasuru lays in the
right to condemn , buy and operate. The par
tial remedy is in state legislation. Wo need
not fear the power of the thunderbolt if our
lightning-rod is good and truo. The political
machine , though powerful , will bo as elTeetlvo
and practical and pure as now under private
motive power , with the additional advantage
of treating all allko.
The postiil department is a political ma
chine , but it transports letters at 2 cents ,
while private corporations would charge $3
for a like long distance service , and provo it
reasonable.
Now everybody , individual , or city , or
community , has postal service , and no inllntcd
weathercock or-purchasing agent dictates
to any business man or center ono rate of
postngo and a lessor or greater amount to an
other.
Our intelligence must grow with the busi
ness growth of th country , and the time is
now ripe for us to incorporate in the platform
of all parties and creeds , as a business and
commercial nation , article 7 of the constitu
tion of the Knighta of Labor , which is us
follows :
7. That tlio moans of communication and
transput t-illon shall bu controlled by and oj.u-
rnti'il In tlio Iiitcre-Htsof tlio people , as Is the
United Hliitoi postal system.
This is to tlio business world what the
fifteenth amendment was to the negro.
This would not make our world an Ideal
one , but It will ino.in commercial freedom and
equal compensation and inducement to pro
duction which Ran never bo had with private
corporate control of transportation and com
munication. A , J. GUHTIN.

THE SABBATH AT BEATRICE, A Delicious Shower During the Night Renders the Air Cool and Pleasant, CHAUTAUQUA GROUNDS WELL FILLED, Jacob Heclinem Drowned in the Missouri River Following Descriptive Work at Nebraska City and Hastings' State News.
BEATRICE, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to THE BRADY.] The largest throng yet witted at the Chautauqua grounds assembled today. A delightful rain during the night and early morning rendered the air cool and pleasant. Every tent is occupied with campers or temporary lodgers and the general attendance up to this hour far exceeds that of the corresponding period last year. The services of the day began with the assembly Sabbath school at the tabernacle at 9 o'clock with a large attendance. At 11 o'clock Rev. George Vibbert of Boston, Mass., delivered an eloquent temperance sermon. It was practical and interesting and elicited frequent applause.
The afternoon services at the tabernacle were preceded by an excellent song service under the direction of Prof. Straub. Mrs. C. O. Bates sang the magnificent solo, "Rock of Ages," to the air of Abt's incomparably beautiful "When the Swallows Homeward Fly." This was followed by an eloquent discussion on the theme of culture and growth by Rev. V. B. J. Hadford, editor of the Christian Standard. The tabernacle was crowded to its full seating capacity by an interested audience and frequent wild outbursts of applause indicated the appreciation with which the sermon was received. At 4 o'clock the Young Men's Christian association services were held at Tennyson's hall and were conducted under the leadership of the local branch of the association. The Young People's Christian Endeavor held an interesting service at the tabernacle at 6 under the leadership of Rev. Chippendale of Minneapolis. A similar branch, under the auspices of the Christian church, held forth their headquarters at the same hour.
Cole's orchestra and the Beatrice band filled in the intervening hour preceding the regular evening services at the tabernacles. At 7:30 the beautiful ceremony of Chautauqua vespers service was held at the tabernacle conducted by Dr. H. Stoddard. At 8 o'clock Prof. Elinwood delivered a lecture on the six days of creation, supplemented with stereopticon views, which was highly appreciated by the audience.
Superintendent Davidson concluded the services of the day with an interesting service of twelve stereopticon views illustrating the Rock of Ages, accompanied with an eloquent talk descriptive of the views.
Another interesting event of the afternoon was the meeting at the Woman's Christian Temperance union headquarters, conducted by Mrs. Woodward, state vice president of the organization.
The grounds throughout the day were a scene of animation. Those disinclined to attend the several services strolled along the river bank or took a ride on the steamboat Queen of the Blue, which was pressed into service for excursionists during the afternoon.
Tomorrow's session gives promise of great interest and the constantly arriving trains indicate a tremendous attendance. The program for Sunday's Bun. Among the speakers for Tuesday will be Rev. G. S. Minor, Colonel J. P. Sandford, and John X. Bowitt Miller.
Gala Days at Friend.
Friend, Neb., June 29. [Special to THE BRADY.] Friend will don her Sunday clothes this week, for about all of Saline county and most of Nebraska will be here. Great preparations are being made to celebrate the Fourth in a most up-to-date manner, and a large amount of money is being raised for the purpose.
The great attraction, however, will be the soldiers' reunion, beginning on the 4th and ending July 5. Commander Clarkson, Captain Henry, and other prominent speakers will be here. The reunion will be held on the fairgrounds, and ample provisions are being made for tents and other conveniences.
Sterling is Growing.
STERLING, Neb., June 29. [Special to THE BRADY.] Building is booming along in great style. All kinds of laborers find ready employment. The new brick bank with fine stone front is now ready for the roof and is a fine piece of architecture. This is a new institution just organized and known as the Farmers' and Merchants' bank.
The Christian church is enclosed and will soon be ready for the plasterers. This is the largest church in town and will cost $10,000 when completed. This makes the fourth fine church for Sterling, and all are thriving conditions, each one having a big membership.
The contract for our $10,000 school house was let to Mr. Schmucker of Falls City and the building is to be completed by December 1. It will be one of the best and most modern school buildings in the county.
The fine roller mill here was purchased by the Sterling Mill company. They have taken out a lot of the old machinery. A carload of fine new case machinery has arrived and the millwright of the company is here now placing it in position. The company expects to start up in about ten days with a mill second to none in the state, and the company will put men on the road to sell their goods.
Farmers are beginning to worry about their crops. The extreme dry and hot weather has almost ruined all kinds of crops. Oats on the uplands are very thin, short, and poorly filled. Wheat is not more than a third of a crop. Corn is short, with a good stand, but the last few days has injured it a great deal and some of it can be rubbed up like dry fodder. Gardens are almost a total failure, and a small crop of potatoes is looked for.
Hall County Politics.
ATKINSON, Neb., June 29. [Special to THE BRADY.] The republican county central committee has called the convention for July 11 and the state convention for July 18. The question arises whether or not Judge M. P. Kinkaid is going to be a candidate for congress in the Third district. The Kinkaid faction is very strong in this county and if the Judge is in the field they will make it hot for his enemies. In any event, an anti-Dorsey delegation will go from this county to the national congressional convention.
There is a great scramble to go to the state convention this year, but whoever goes the delegation will undoubtedly be for Richards for governor and Hill for treasurer.
Then seems to be no opposition to Edgar Adams for county attorney, and he will probably be nominated by acclamation.
John W. Houston seems to be conceded the choice to the senatorial convention and if he gets them he will undoubtedly be nominated. For representatives, the field is open and it is very difficult to say who will be nominated. Hlias Rohr is a prominent candidate and looks like a winner, but it all depends on a combination. The Farmers' alliance will have at least half of the ticket, and in the opinion of leading members of that organization will be fully satisfied.
Drowned in the Missouri River.
BRATTON, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to THE BRADY.] Jacob Bachman was drowned this morning in the Blue River, about five miles north of here, while bathing. With three or four companions, he was swimming in the river all night and on their return this morning all concluded to take a bath. Bachman, a good swimmer, was seized with cramps and drowned before his companions could reach him.
He was about thirty years old, unmarried, and hailed from Kentucky. The body was recovered about 1 o'clock this afternoon. The inquest will be held at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Honeyler's Cyclone was a Myth.
Schuyler, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to THE BRADY.] The citizens of this city were surprised today upon reading the article which appeared in the Omaha Republican, saying that Schuyler had been swept by a cyclone last Saturday night.
The report was without foundation, and the thing must have originated in the fertile imaginary brain of the Republican staff at this city or made up of whole cloth by the Omaha force, as we had only a heavy fall of rain, with very little damage. Lightning struck the residence of Mr. Abbott and demolished a chimney and damaged the room, but no one was injured and no other damage whatever was done. There was no wind at all.
In Progress.
Sioux City, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] Harvest has been in progress here during the past week. Of full wheat, barley, and rye, the yield will be light. Oats are almost a failure. Mucelows are light. Farmers are busy laying by their corn, which looks well and promises now a good crop. Extreme heat prevails. C. L. Jones of Hastings lost a horse from heat while plowing corn on his ranch south of here. High winds are prevailing and rain is needed very badly here.
Fire.
HASTINGS, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] During the storm this morning the farm buildings of H. H. Boxten, a prominent farmer living south of Hastings, were struck by lightning and totally destroyed by fire, together with three head of horses and four head of cattle.
Machinery Wrecked.
OMAHA CITY, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] Lightning last night struck the electric light plant in this city and wrecked the machinery to the extent of $1,000.
Game of Ball.
OMAHA CITY, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] The game of ball between Nebraska City and South Omaha this afternoon resulted in favor of Nebraska City by a score of 13 to 5.
City's Population.
CARTRON, Neb., June 29. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] The census of this city, as furnished, shows a population inside of the city limits of 2,314.)
STROKE AND MISHAP'S GUEST.
An Ex-Banking President Overhears
Handled by an Irate Depositor.
Pittsburgh, Pa., June 29. [Special Telegram to The BEE.] Edwin F. Work, late president of the Gloucester City National Bank, visited Gloucester yesterday and was treated to a bath by jumping overboard from the staging to the Delaware river to escape from an irate depositor. Work visited the place in a yacht with a number of friends. They landed below Schuylkill Vista hotel, visited the shore in a small boat and went to the hotel. When Work entered the place, James Foster, proprietor of the hotel, was standing near the bar talking. Foster was reminded by the sight of Work that he had lost nearly $50,000 by the mismanagement of Work and his anger began to rise.
Without a word, he approached Work and began to get satisfaction for the loss of his money by pummeling the ex-bank president. The visitor became demoralized, some scaled the fence to get away from the hotel's proprietor's wrath, while Work ran to the wharf and jumped on the raft. Foster followed and when he was a few feet from the banker, the latter jumped into the river and struck out for a small boat by which he hoped to reach the yacht.
Friends on the yacht anticipated the turn events would take and they sent out a small boat from the yacht. Work did not have to swim far before he was clutched by the collar and pulled into the yacht and finally put aboard his yacht. The anchor was raised and the party left the hostile shore. Angry depositors on the shore, who witnessed the affray, were unanimous in expressing their satisfaction at the summary manner in which he was treated by Foster.
Work of Louisiana Vigilantes.
New Orleans, La., June 29. A special from Baton Rouge, La., says trouble has been brewing for some time, the negroes having been incited by agitators to strike and make threats, etc. Yesterday morning two hundred armed white men rode into town. They threw out pickets and asked the whereabouts of Henry Daniels, John Taylor, Dug Tillis, and George Howard. Howard was found in a garden, and, refusing to surrender, was killed. Two other negroes were seriously wounded. Dug Tillis and two associates were taken to the outskirts of town, whipped, and ordered to leave. The men then searched the residences of all suspicious colored people, captured eighteen or twenty shotguns, some Winchester rifles, and revolvers and then dispersed. The negroes have been very bold here of late and there has been considerable promiscuous shooting and other trouble.
Chicago Cooling Off.
Chicago, June 29. A cool breeze, beginning late this afternoon, has relieved the heated term in this city, at least temporarily. The breeze did not put in an appearance, however, until the excessive heat made a record of eight fatal cases of prostration in the city since daylight. A large number of other persons succumbed, but up to evening no deaths were apprehended. The preceding twenty-four hours marked the culmination of an almost unprecedented period of warmth. According to one authority there were eighteen deaths from sunstroke and 117 other cases of heat prostration, fully one dozen of which are pronounced critical.
The Hanover shooting.
HANOVER, June 29. [Special cablegram to The BEE.] At the shooting in honor of the American riflemen, the following New Yorkers were successful: At the Field target, "Germany" Zimmerman won the second prize; at the rifle target, "Hanover" Wilshcer took the first prize and Zimmerman the second; at the hunting target, Stein took the first prize; Zimmerman and Stein won the stars, also Busse, Walter, Zimmerman, Simon, Sickberg, Stern, and Schroeder won cups.
Apologetic Consistency.
Pittsburgh, June 29. Magistrate Rochestersger yesterday issued warrants of arrest for John J. Magariano, president of the defunct American life Insurance company, Louis K. Pitchford, president of the defunct Bank of America, and Charles W. Dunbar, cashier of the Bank of America, charging them with conspiracy in obtaining $125,000 of the funds of the bank by crediting a loan to Richard K. Banks, an employee of the bank. This is the first step taken by the depositors to bring criminal proceedings against the officers of the Bank of America and their complices.

MUST BEAT IT IN THE HOUSE,
The Plan of the Democrats Regearing the National Election
SURE OF ADOPTION IN THE SENATE,
Not a Republican In the Upper Branch of Congress Will Vote Against It Nebraska Postal Changes.
WASHINGTON BUREAU O.uuu BBB, )
f > 13 Footnote on the Senate, V
WASHINGTON, D.C., June 29. )
"If you don't want the natural election bill to become a law you must beat it in the house," was the word Senator Hansom of North Carolina and his colleagues sent to the bourbon in the lower branch of congress late yesterday afternoon. And they added this information: "There is not a republican senator who will speak or vote against it." This message to the Philistines of the house was sent in verbal form after the democrats in the senate had made sufficient inquiry to lead them to believe that their proposition to hasten adjournment by the speedy consideration of all other general measures if the election bill was not taken up at this session would be rejected. There is now but one thing, so far as the human ken or genius can see, in the way of the final adoption of the election bill within a fortnight. It would be no difficult thing to set aside the tariff and pass the elections bill if there were any rule by which debate in the senate could be terminated and a question brought to a vote. It would not be a difficult matter to fix by a majority vote of the senate a day for terminating debate upon a question after a rule was adopted by a majority vote if it were not that there would be talk about a "continuing resolution" and a "force measure." Undoubtedly a little capital would be made by unscrupulous demagogues among ignorant persons if this should be done, but the country understands quite well now what kind of a minority the republicans have to deal with and there is little doubt that the majority in the senate have made up their minds to rule by reference with the greatest deference to the wishes of an unwieldy minority but by dint of firmness if necessary. For while it looked as though there would be quite a number of southern republicans in the house who would vote against the elections bill, but the debate thus far has demonstrated that there will be no republican votes against it from general principles.
Mr. Edwards of North Carolina, it is stated, opposes the bill not because he thinks it unwise in any respect, but because he regards it as an administration measure and he imagines himself out of joint with the administration. His most intimate friend made this statement to your correspondent this evening: "There may be two or three republicans in the house who will vote against the bill on general principles, because they think it will be detrimental to party interests in localities, but it is not likely the bill will have less than ten or twelve majority in the house. The democrats now say there will be no republican vote against it in the senate, whereas a month ago it was stated and with some degree of truth that a good number of republican senators questioned the propriety of such a measure at this time to the extent of having made up their minds to defeat consideration at this session if possible and vote against it if necessary to prevent its ultimate adoption. The debate in the house has put everybody to studying the bill, and the more it is studied the more righteous the republicans regard it.
A CHANGE OF CONGRESS.
It was not twenty-four hours after the senate's amended silver bill was referred to the house committee on coinage, weights and measures before free coinage began to very rapidly decline in popular favor here. After all, the demand for free coinage on the part of men in the senate and house proved to be but a sentiment. Not a single man could be found who would not frankly acknowledge that either 4,500,000 ounces or 8,500,000 of coinage per month would more than consume the supply from American mines. The strongest argument that has been made in favor of unlimited coinage is that it gives free raw material for the manufacture of money and impresses the world with the fact that this government intends to make permanently silver a standard money value and, therefore, our silver mining interests are to be recognized as foster industries on the part of the federal government.
After all men in congress are about as easily swayed by excitement and popular clamor as ordinary people in private life. When the house bill was taken up in the senate that body was committed at least a decided majority of it to limited coinage. Scarcely a dozen senators believed that it was possible to pass an unlimited measure, but a flood of telegrams from western states impressed a number of republican senators that there was a clamor for unlimited coinage. Then the democrats put their heads together and thought it would be a great scheme to pass a bill such as had not been endorsed by the administration, and the two elements succeeded in running free coinage through with a whoop.
Immediately that the senate adopted unlimited coinage the house, which was committed to the Wilson limited bill, became as a camp of savages and demanded immediate consideration of the bill as it was amended by the senate. The public is familiar with the three days of exciting contest by which a number of wild free coinage men, with the assistance of the democrats, attempted desperately to wrest from Speaker Keed the highest rule and privilege of the house - that of natural reference to committee of a bill before its consideration. Twenty-four hours after the bill was referred to committee members on both sides seemed to begin the collection of their better judgment, and in less than forty-eight hours it was conceded that a large majority of the house acknowledged its rashness and was anxious to adopt a limited measure. When the free coinage men in the senate began to consider the rash action of the free coinage people in the house, they also experienced a change of better judgment.
SURFACE EXPIRES JULIAN RULE.
If anyone believes that the republican party has not fulfilled its pledges made to the soldiers during the campaign of 1888 he is not acquainted with the legislation of this congress. It is estimated that the natural growth of the pension roll under the present laws since the dependent bill which was finally agreed to in the senate the other day has become a law will within a year or two aggregate nearly $170,000,000 a year. When President Harrison began the management of federal affairs the pension roll only slightly exceeded $100,000,000 a year. It will be seen that the expedition of the business in the pension office and the laws of this republican congress have combined to do everything possible for the soldiers. There was a demand for universal pensions which had a very profound impression upon the president and which appealed from his natural inclinations to try the proposition with support. The only reason that congress has not provided a universal pension bill is that it is feared by many conservative republicans it may be a mistake. Free sugar and the abolition of internal tobacco taxes means a decrease in the revenues of about $80,000,000 a year, and with the increase of the annual pension roll of about an equal amount and liberal expenditures for the improvement of rivers and harbors and the construction of public buildings will bring the expenses of the government down to as low a point as the revenues will warrant.
The history of legislation shows that all important steps in the interest of the soldier have been taken under republican administrations. This congress has passed more private pension bills than the first session of the last congress, and the president has not vetoed a single private pension measure, while President Cleveland vetoed more than a hundred. The record of this congress in the matter of pensions and the action of the president is in sharp contrast with that of two years ago, COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATION BILL PASSES.
The senate has passed a bill providing for the compulsory education of German children.
The secretary of the interior is directed to have a census taken of the Indian children between the ages of eight and eighteen years and require the attendance of each child at school for at least five years. Industrial boarding schools are to be established on every Indian reservation where there are more than five hundred Indians and the children from the smaller reservations are to be sent to the schools on the nearest larger ones. The children are to be taught useful labor in addition to reading, writing, arithmetic, and other rudimentary branches. The boys are to be instructed in agricultural pursuits and some mechanical trade for which they shall show the greatest aptitude, and the girls are to be instructed in housework, the care of poultry, and other employments suitable to their sex. Such a bill has been reported favorably from the Indian committee of the house and is on the Calendar, so that it is likely to become a law if it is reached before the end of the session.
A HONORABLE END
A law was passed not long ago offering amnesty to deserters from the regular army under certain conditions, and all whose offense occurred more than five years ago can surrender themselves to the commanding officers of the nearest military post, and after an investigation of their cases, obtain an honorable discharge. The object of this law was to clear up the records of certain wealthy gentlemen who were formerly in the army, but deserted a generation or more ago, and have since been in constant terror lest they might be apprehended and sent to prison. There are of course thousands of others to whom it is a great relief and who will take advantage of its provisions, but they could not have commanded the influence to secure such legislation. In the early days of gold excitement in the west, it was difficult to keep men in the army. Many enlisted solely for the purpose of securing free transportation to California, Nevada, Colorado, and other far-off states and afterwards deserted and took refuge in the mining districts. It is said that there are thousands of such men in the west today, wealthy and prosperous, some of them worth large sums of money, but they have all lived in constant danger of arrest and been victims of blackmail from those who knew their records. An old artillery officer told me the other day that he met in California not long ago a man worth $5,000,000 who had been a member of his company and deserted in 1831. He went into the mines and got rich and was highly respected, but lived in constant terror lest his secret should be discovered. The same officer knew another rich man in the same state whose circumstances were similar and had paid thousands and thousands of dollars in blackmail. O'Brien, the partner of Flood and Mackay, is said to have been a deserter, and some of the richest and best men in Arizona are down on the army records as absent without leave. These men can now go to the nearest military post, surrender themselves, and get a discharge without anybody being the wiser.

VERY VITAL AFFECTS.
A Beautiful Girl Trying to Starve Herself to Death.
Reading, Pa., June 20. [Special Telegram to The Bic.] Miss Frances Potts, a beautiful girl of nineteen, residing with her parents at the village of St. Peter's over the border in upper Chester County, has tasted neither food nor drink since June 5, Just twenty days ago. On that day, after repeated attempts to commit suicide by other means, she succeeded in shooting herself in the head with a revolver, but without fatal effect.
Since then, she has declared that she wishes to die and has doggedly refused to partake of nourishment of any kind, either liquid or solid. For some time previous to making the attempts to take her own life, it was noticed that Miss Potts was despondent, caused presumably by her unrequited affection for a young man of St. Peter.
The bullet wound is serious, but her physicians believe she will recover. It is to prevent such a result and to make sure of death that she persists in her voluntary fast.
Congressional Program.
Washington, June 26 - The senate will be occupied with appropriation bills the greater part of the week, and the tariff is likely to go over until next week. Of general business, the bill for the admission of Idaho has first place and the river and harbor bill next. The senate will be likely to adjourn from Thursday until Monday, and members of the house expect to do the same, although this has not been definitely decided in either body.
It is probable that the house committee on rules will report a rule setting apart Thursday for the disposition of the Torrey bankruptcy bill, but other measures are being pressed, it may be referred. The silver coinage bill may come up this week, but probably the conference report will not come before the house until the following week. The election bill still proceeds.
The event her uproar significantly improved.
Was especially favorable for growing crops throughout the principal corn and wheat states, central valleys, and the northwest.
The international telegraph bureau at Burue is dead.
It was a brilliant victory, achieved by the Black Sox over Sioux City yesterday.
They shut the Corn Huskers out, Walsh gave an inhibition on base stealing, and Hanrahan showed the visitors how to pitch down kicks.
If Omaha only had a few more Strauss to trade for a few more Hanrahan, then she would be happy.
Koddy is certainly a mascot, and the management did a wise thing when they signed him.
But to the game.
The day was one of these incomparable ones, and the usual Sunday crowd was on hand to witness the sport.
And how they did shout and cheer the brilliant plays of the home team interspersed so lavishly throughout the whole conflict.
It was a great game and a greater victory.
To shut the Corn Huskers out was an achievement even the boldest did not dare to anticipate.
But the Black Sox did it, and just as easily as the gypsy was at that.
Eleven to naught was the size of it.
Sioux City came on the field as confident and full of pranks as a lot of yearling colts, but when they left in the evening with a whole bus full of goose eggs they were the saddest-eyed, most haggard, and woebegone looking crowd you ever beheld.
Takoy Strauss, particularly, felt guilty.
He caught like a chump and put in much of his valuable time making faces at the crowd in the grand stand.
And may be they didn't guy him.
He was so mad at one time that he came pretty nearly biting himself.
The first three innings were blanks for both sides, but in the fourth Omaha broke the ice.
Walsh opened up with a single, then stole second without turning a hair, and his numerous friends shouted with joy. Hanrahan struck out, Walsh didn't like this, so he just gave his belt a hitch and stole third.
You could have heard the noise that followed this exploit, but it was nothing to the wave of sound that broke over the grand stand when he capped the climax by stealing home.
And the Corn Huskers looked like a lot of monkeys.
In the fourth, on two little hits, three steals, and three errors the Black Sox got home four more.
The sixth added another tally to the score, the seventh three more, and the ninth a brace.
And all this time the Corn Huskers had been stepping up and sitting down with the regularity of clockwork.
Clarke was at his very best, and pitched one of his old time games, and he received the fullest meed of praise from the spectators.
Everyone was glad to see him back at himself, for they all know that he is the king of the western association when in form.
Moran caught finely and Walsh batted like a tiger, and played the most cunning game you ever saw. When he was on the bases it just resembled a red streak from first to the plate.
Hanrahan, too, was given an ovation, and is bound to be a great favorite, he brought the stands down when, in the sixth inning, he picked Brosnau's high fly from off the very fence.
Well, Sioux City went away from here very thoroughly slathered with whitewash, and that's glory enough.
Saturday's circus is forgiven, for yesterday it was grand opera.
The Black Sox go to Denver this morning.

ST. Louis, Mo., June 29. Special Telegraph to The Mills. The situation in the freight handlers' strike in East St. Louis remains about unchanged. The strikers held a meeting today and decided not to accept the terms offered by the railroads and are determined to stay out until the roads come to terms. The latter have a few green hands at work, but very little is being done in the freight houses, as the men know little or nothing of the work required of them. It is stated also that should the roads not accede to the strikers' demand, the transfer drivers and other members of the American Federation of Labor who are immediately concerned in the freight handlers' movement will join the strikers tomorrow.
Another rumor current tonight is that should the threatened move on the part of the transfer drivers prove true, the roads will accede to the demands made by the freight handlers. The supervisors are to hold a meeting tomorrow morning at which a decision will likely be reached.
Charged with Wife Murder.
CALIFORNIA, Pa., June 29. [Special Telegram to The Barn.] John Kampfer, an employee of the Harrisburg & Potomac railroad, who resided at Huntsdale, in Penn township, up to Thursday last with his wife and two children, was arrested last night charged with the murder of his wife. On Thursday morning Mrs. Kampfer complained of feeling unwell and her husband gave her a dose of what he said was laudanum and a corn exterminator, remarking that she would be better soon. In a short time the woman was seized with violent convulsions and two hours after taking the medicine she was dead. The funeral took place yesterday and after the services her brother, A.A. McCoy of this city, made information against the husband for murder. The district attorney and the coroner went to the scene of the alleged murder today and gathered the testimony of several neighbors to the effect that Kampfer treated his wife badly and that he had made threats that he would put her out of the way. Tomorrow they will have the body dissected and hold an inquest and post-mortem examination.
A Double Celebration.
WYOMING, June 29. [Special Telegraph to The Barn.] The unbounded joy over the admission of Wyoming is to be celebrated here on a grand scale on the Fourth of July. June 29, at a meeting of the citizens, much enthusiasm and joy was expressed at the confirmation of the reports of the passage of the bill without amendment for our admission and as arrangements had been made for the celebration of the event, about the time the bill received favorable consideration in the house, it was resolved that as extensive arrangements had been made for a celebration on the Fourth of July that the celebration of our state birthday be held at the same time. Arrangements have been made for special trains over the B. & M. road and the celebration on the Fourth will be the grandest affair ever witnessed in northern Wyoming.

PERSONAL RIGHTS QUESTION,
Judge Tully Addresses a Remarkable Letter to Chicago Turners.
JUSTICE DEFINED BY AN ABLE JURIST.
Just How Far an Individual Is Deprived of His Personal Rights to That Extent, He is in Slavery.
CHICAGO, June 29. Ten thousand people who attended the annual games of the turners societies of Chicago listened to a letter from the well-known jurist, Judge Murray F. Tully, which aroused decided interest. The letter was addressed to the Chicago district turners as members of the Personal Rights league and was read by President Dyrenfuorth of the league. In the letter, Judge Tully says he regards their organization as one of the most important factors in the preservation of the liberties of the people now in existence. "Just so far," says the Judge, "as an individual is deprived of his personal rights, just to that extent is he in slavery. Every law which directly or indirectly forbids the exercise of or abridges a man's personal rights deprives him to that extent of his liberty. But the danger to liberty is not so much from unequal or tyrannical legislation as from the ignoring of written laws and usurpation by executive officers of powers and authority not granted by law. Where, as in the city of Chicago, the police arrest upon bare suspicion and without warrant persons not found in the net of violating the law, when the police undertake to determine who shall and who shall not meet in open public assemblages to discuss political or economic questions; when trial by newspaper is substituted for trial by jury; when 'original packages' of slander and vindication are hurled at the highest court of the nation because of its decisions favoring personal rights and freedom of commerce; when upon almost every article of food, drink, and clothing a fictitious price is made by means of unlawful trusts and combinations, it is time, I say, not only to call a halt, but to establish personal rights leagues in every school district, every county, every state in the union. Let your organization proclaim it to be the first duty of every citizen to obey the law, whether he be officer or private citizen. Demand that there shall be absolute equality of every citizen before the law, in the administration of the law and under the operation of the law. Persevere in your opposition to all sumptuary and vicious legislation and teach the people that if they wish to preserve their liberties there must be eternal vigilance in the protection of personal rights."
GOVERNMENT CONTROL.
Mr. Girling Says the Only Solution of the Railroad Problem.
WEST: KANSAS, Neb., June 23. To the Editor of The Barn: Your editorial on "The Railroads and their Control" in your issue of June 25 (foreshadows) the light that will soon be made in the supreme court of the United States. I believe the result of that light will be that the commission has no authority to interfere with transportation charges.
Once admit the validity of the watered stock of the railroads, telegraph, and express lines and a showing for the whole systems will be made bearing out the false showing of net earnings on investments in those lines of only about 5 percent as was made out but within a few days for Nebraska in the Behrent-Cowdry-Steen railroad report. Yet the managers paid out $15,000 per mile on the B. & M. main line, which is accepted as true and no reported by this finding.
There is no use to waste time fighting liens on the railroad hyenas. It is best to put the animal inside the bars of public control at once.
If the railroads are private property they will be upheld by the supreme court in dictating charges regardless of public opinion.
The remedy in its fullest measure lies in the right to condemn, buy and operate. The partial remedy is in state legislation. We need not fear the power of the thunderbolt if our lightning-rod is good and true. The political machine, though powerful, will be as effective and practical and pure as now under private motive power, with the additional advantage of treating all alike.
The post office department is a political machine, but it transports letters at 2 cents, while private corporations would charge $3 for a like long distance service, and prove it reasonable.
Now everybody, individual, or city, or community, has postal service, and no infixed weathercock or purchasing agent dictates to any business man or center one rate of postage and a lesser or greater amount to another.
Our intelligence must grow with the business growth of the country, and the time is now ripe for us to incorporate in the platform of all parties and creeds, as a business and commercial nation, Article 7 of the Constitutions of the Knights of Labor, which is as follows:
7. That the means of communication and transportation shall be controlled by and operated in the interests of the people, as is the United States postal system.
This is to the business world what the fifteenth amendment was to the negro. This would not make our world an ideal one, but it will increase commercial freedom and equal compensation and inducement to production which can never be had with private corporate control of transportation and communication. A. J. GUHTIN.
Importation of Chinese Humored.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., June 9. A local paper says that a large number of Chinese are to be imported to work in the projected fisheries on the west coast of Mexico. It is also proposed to construct a railroad from the west coast to the City of Mexico, and the Mexican consul understands that a movement is on foot to build the road through to Vera Cruz, competing with the Nicaragua canal. Fully 8,000 Chinese will be imported to do the work on this road.
Milwaukee A storm.
ALBANY, June 29. [Special Telegram to The Book]: The military court-martial yesterday took up the new charge against Captain Milwaukee, relating to the purchase of a typewriter for which vouchers for $150 had been signed by Thomas Hughes. Hughes testified for the government that he never sold Milwaukee a typewriter, but said he had signed vouchers in blank. Willis Hayes testified he sold Milwaukee a typewriter for $100. Several other witnesses were examined and the court adjourned until Monday.

business accordingly. Ho expanded too
much , Overdid the thing.
Now , what Is sound policy for n business
man Is sound policy for our nation. Flnancu
Is bUHlnoHS , not rainbows. Our government
must not issue its notes ( gold cerullcatux , sil
ver certlllcatas. greenbacks or fractional cur
rency ) beyond Its power to instantly convert
Into coin. Our national , money should bo

shadow of uiicertainty about our money. An
uncertain money is bad money.
Now the Stanford rainbow would give us n
rain of irredeemable paper money. The loan
to tlio limner would ho secured by n mort
gage on his farm. The money itself would
bo paper ami paper it would remain , if 1 un
derstand Mr. Burrows' and President Pow
ers. The farmer would pay his mortgage In
greenbacks In part , or mow likely In whole.
They would never bo icdeoined unless it was
so printed on them. They would read : "Ono
dollar , , by act of congress , U. S. A. Legal
tender for claims , publio and private , " and
possibly , "on penalty , etc. " Irredeemable ]
iiiipiir money Is thd abomination of desolation
in business and llnance. There Is no need to
theorbo. History affords numerous exam
ples. Frederick the Great issued paper in
Ills wars. Ho was victorious , but , though
Prussia recuperated the inonfiy became
worthless , Did no harm result I Was no
body cheated ! Did anybody suffer I John
Law was allowed to start a bank of Franco
in 1710 , For u while its notes bore a pre
mium ever coin. Then it bloomed out into
Just such a paternal government loan con
cern as tlio nationalists want and thu Stan-
form scheme Otters. In four years the money
was worthless. Was it a harmless
llttlo experiment ! Kead up yoursell.
During tlio French revolution paper
money was Issued called "assl nats , "
They were made "legal tender , " but they
were lee tender , and they soon fell below par.
In six years they were good for nothing.
Some were redeemed In "mandate" at HO for
1. It Is said by some persons that moro.suf
fering a hundred fold was caused by the as-
fdgimts than by prisons and guillotines. Dur
ing our war for independence our forefathers
Issued the continental currency , based on the
good faith of the united colonies. They
dropped out of circulation in 11 vo years ,
worthless'and ; although our fathers won and
soon raised streams of revenue and pah ! oil
the other debts , the paper was not made good.
Irredeemable p ipor money is a publio calam
ity. It is claimed by some fresh liminclers ,
in utter dellance of history , that it was "the
exception clause" winch depreciated the
greenbacks in IbO1 , ' , because the lirst issue ,
the "demand notes , " kept at par. They did
not have tlmo to depreciate ; they wore in
circulation lint nlno months before being
called In and supurceded by the others , .lohn
Law's money was Ii and 10 per cent above par
at llrst ; why did it not remain soi Our con
tinental bills kept up to par lor over a year.
Why did they not stay upf At the revolu
tion clo o men thought nothing of giving $500
in bills for a dinner. It took a sulky IIOK full
to purchase a cow. Did the continental money
do much worse I
Hut it may bo said that the govornmentcan
loan paper to the farmers to bo redeemed in
silver and thus wo will get loans and moro
silver both. It will take a long tlmo for our
government to accumulate a reserve largo
enough for redemption. It will add much to
Its yearly expenses to buy mid coin the silver.
The amount of the money would bo enormous.
The value of our farms is 810,200,000,001) ) .
One-fourth that , the amount possible to bo
loaned under the Stanford scheme , is $ jr > . iO- ,
000,000. Our government cannot well coin
ever UvVt.tKK UOO per year. It would then bo
over forty-seven years raising that reserve.
If It redeemed some paper every year , yet It
would take forty-soveii yours for the
achievement. Such n vast amount of
money thrown on the country would
Intoxicate business. Prices would go sky
high. Two billion , llvo hundred anil llfty
million dollars Is about three limes the
amount of paper ( greenbacks and bank i\otea \ )
wo had during tlio war ; and with our present
circulation of ilii7.ltV : | , < HK ) ( Windom's llg-
ures ) or total of iliib7,199,000 ! , wo should
have llvo and one-half times our total circula
tion In 1870. Prices accordingly would go to
about live and ono-half times those in 187li.
Is it said that the amount of loans would not
come nnywhero near these llgnu'st Who
knows I "All would want to borrow , all poor
men of all classes who could give security on
land. What was done for one man would
have to bo done for all. Them would bo the
wildest era of speculation over witnessed , It
would be followed by an awful smash and
then hard times. Millions would be almost
beggared , The volume of money can not bo
suddenly expanded or contracted to any
great degree without danger. There Is danger
of this in tlio free coinage of the silver "dol

Sioux GITT , la. , Juno 2STo ( ho Kdltor
of Tin : Bin : , The fullncss-of tlmo has como
for harmonious action among Missouri river
ullles , especially Omaha , Kansas City and
Sioux City , to cut thoOordlan knot by which
the old Chicago railroad companies have tied
the hands of the west. All the.so Missouri
river cities have a common lutoront in this
matter. Kach has u sunlcicnl tributary In
tlio trans-Miss'ourl omplro.t'l''or cuch the
question of railroad rates Is" vital ; and for all
alike the qucitlon of fair rutcs U inextricably
involved in dlscnlhrullnicnt from the old ( Jhl-
cage line combine.
Tlio subject Is especially vital to Omnha ,
and tlio opiwrtuiiily Is nbw open to Omaha to
achieve Independence of tlio old Chicago
lines. It Is the opportunity lo , secure tlio
co.npetition of the new upper lake competi
tion-actual , genuine competition In rates-
ana it is open in no other direction.
Are the business mcn'of Oimtha aware of
the fact that they uro today indebted for rates
via the old Chicago lines ' . ' . " i > or cent lower
than they wore two months ago wololy to the
establishment at Sioux City or connection
with the Dulutli and upper lake competition
in freights ) Are they aware that for three
weeks the solo serious obstacle in the way of
the associated Chicago roads advancing rates
L7 > per cent and moro is the oxis'tonco of this
competition at Sioux City I ' Are they aware
that the biggest share of thce.ist bound pack
ing house product of Sioux City is today
being shipped over the Sioux City & North
ern to the Great Northern to Dulutli , thence
1)3 * the Great Northern linoof steel steamship
by lake to BtitTalo , and thcnoo by the Krlo
road to New York or by New Knghuul lines
to Boston I Are they aware that the lion's
share of the freight to and from Sioux City
goes over this loutu , or over the -'Soo" line
Irom St. Paul and via th.o Canadian Pacilie )
Are they nwiiro that the old Chicago
lines nro compelled to meet this
competition at Sioux City by cutting down
rates to the level of the upper lake competi
tion , and that under the rulings of the inter
state commerce commission , the rates having
been put down at Sioux City , they hud to bo
put down at Omaha and other Missouri river
points ; mid that on the other hand thev can
not bo put up by tlio Chicago roads until they
are aLso put up at Sioux Cityl This is tliO
mill ; in the cocoanut.
And how does it como that Sioux City has
tlio low upper lake rates ) Simply by tlio
building of the little Sioux City & Northern
road a little road of ninety-eight miles ; a
llttlo road running duo north from Sioux City
to a junction with tlio Great Northern or
Manitoba system , with which it is operated
under a cast-Iran tralllo contract made before
a shovel full of dirt was thrown on the Sioux
City & Northern.
And right hero a little retrospect is profit
able.
able.A
A few years ago it was. found that the low
levels of tlio line of the great lakes and the
St Lawrence basin afforded opportunity for
the cheap construction and operation of rail
roads. Tims there was developed , partly on
Canadian soil , a system of low-grade roads ,
having the advantage of co-operation with
lake lines , the capitalization of which is only
a portion of that of old trunk lines between
Chicago and New York and of their feeders
and tools , ttie old lines west of Chicago.
Them grew up a distinct now system of
transportation , stretching from Dulutli to the
extreme of Lake Superior to the seaboard ,
paralleling the old system. The low grades.
the cheap operating expenses and the small
capitali/atwn of the new system , combined
with the lake and Canadian connections.
gave to it immense advantages over the old
system , enabling the formoy to make profits
on lower rates than the latter could concede
and maintain its enormous burden of fixed
charges , watered stocks and fraudulent
bonds. The old .system was under bid , and a
vast volume of tratlle began to move over tlio
upper lake route. Then Dulutli began to be
u city.
Now remember a familiar lact. St. Paul
and Minneapolis had been under the tyranny
of the Chicago roads , just as
Missouri river towns Imvo been. The period
of their notable growth as cities dates from
the day when they secured the low upper
lake rates by thu bulldinir of the "Soo" line ,
nn independent line of their own. The low
rates thereby secured enabled them to supply
an immense territory of the northwest with
freights that moved fiom the eastern sea
board entirely around Chicago on rutes
which the old Chicago roads could not or
would meet because the pooled trunk lines
east of Chicago extorted their old ilxed "pro
portional" of the through rate. On the other
hand Iho Hour of Minneapolis moved cast al
most cntiielv by the now route around Chicago
cage , as did also n largo and rapidly Increas
ing proportion of the grain and food products
of the northwest in the region of the trade of
the Twin cities. In short , the Twin cities
tin ) the cities that they are today largely by
virtue of their access to the low upper lake
route.
Meantime the Great Northern or Manitoba
railroad system was rapidly extending its
lines through the wheat region of the north
and developing into a great railroad system ,
an anti-Chicago system , having its Interests
ccntrallml at Minneapolis and St. Paul , mid
making promptly a connection with Dulutli
and lake navigation. The great Northern
had ono arm reaching down through Minnesota
seta and South Da'cota to within 100 miles of
Sioux City.
Now all western business men know the
origin of the rate troubles In the west and
northwest during the past thi\se. years. They
know that It lies In the extension of tlioupper
lake competition to St , Paul and Minneapolis.
The old Chicago roads refused to meet that
competition. They virtually "wqnt out of
business , " In railroad pnrhmcuTlitit they
were Involved by the oourao of the Chicago ,
Burlington & Northern , mid they had to
make desperate otTorta to prevent tno exten
sion of cut rUcs to Missouri river points , un
til dually the Chicago , Burlington .V ; ( Jnincy
was compelled lo ulnorb the Chletfgo , Bur
lington & Northern for whoso action in
meeting upper lake onnlpotltlon it was held
responsible by the old Chicago lines.
To Illustrate the dospoi'ation of "thu .strug
gle of the old Chicago roads to pre
vent the reduction of rates to
Missouri river points proportionally
lo the upper lake iiites , a notable fact , may bo
cited. Sioux City , lining the northernmost
Missouri rlvor point , does business in terri
tory competing \\lth St. Paul and Minneapo
lis. As the old Chicago roads rot used to re
duce tlio Missouri river rates Sioux City was
compelled to eompoto on a high Missouri
rher rate with St. Paul and Minneapolis on
the low upper lake rale. Tills , competition
hecamo critical at times during
the past tlneo yours. Inthe - spring
of last year bt , Paul Jobbers were
able actually to lay down goons to the trade
In Sioux City as low as Sioux City Jobbers
could get the same goods hero : The St.
Paul Jobbers actuallv did the same In
of towns in the tonltory at the very door-i of
Sioux City. Tlio Sioux City jobbers for two
years appealed In vain to the Chlcacrp roads
to remedy the situation. Admitting tlio un
just and fatal dUcilmlnatlon , they pcisUt--
cntly refused to remedy it on the grounds
that to reduce rates to Sioux City would
compel thorn to correspondingly reduce rates
to Oimilni and all Missouri river cities to the
south , The Illinois Central had no line teSt
St , Paul and Minneapolis , and thproforo tlm
diversion of freight by the low upper lake
comiHJtltlon from Sioux City was n diversion
of freight from tlio Illinois Cent ml ; but so
powf rful was the pressure bought to ixjar
ny the Chicago roads upon the .Illinois Cen
tral that It refused , against Its own Interest ,
to reduce the rates to Sioux City.
Then It was that Sioux City , hopeless of
remedy otherwise , took Its fate into its own
hands , as Minneapolis and St. Paul had done
yours before , and secured a connection with
upper lake competition by building the Sioux
City & Northern road north nluety-olght
mites ton connection with the 0 rent Northerner
or Manitoba system , a close alllanco having
boon previously consummated. The Sioux
C'lty & Northern was constructed late In the

Do the cilizoim of Omnhn know why the
Pad lie Short line has boon built lir > miles duo
west from Sioux Cltj-to O'Nclli , Nob. , and Is
today under contract for construction the entire -
tire distance tlieuca to Ogden , Utah ,
to u , connection there with
thn Central Paclllol It Is largely
because by building that oonnectlon upon u
lower capitalization than the Union Piiclllo
or any old Chicago road , and by the advant-
tago of the low uiper lams competition at
Sioux City , the. position of this new trans
continental line Is impregnable. Why the
Union i'aellle-Northwcstcrn-Vundorbllt altl-
iinco ? Why tlio tremendoua efforts of that
combine to light back the now construction
westward ) The reason la the samo. The
history of this conflict which has been going
on lias not yet been given to the publio , but
when it is fully hmdo known tlio west will
better understand why the old Chicago ro-uls
have striven so desperately to choke olT the
now upper lake competition from extending
down the Missouri river and into the trans-
Missouri empire.
Hero is n fact worth the consideration of
Omaha : Within thlity days the
old Chicago roads have repeatedly offered to
turn over to the Great Northern or Manitoba
.system nil business at St. Paul and Minne
apolis , provided it would break its contract
with the Sioux City ft Northern and abandon
Missouri river business at Sioux City I But
the game didn't.succeed.
Now to the point. If the upperInko compe
tition excites the old Chicago roads to such
desperate efforts to drive It away from the
Missouri river , is it not worth the while of
Missouri1 river cities to establish for them
selves forever that competition , to strengthen
mid extend it ) That competition is now Ilxed
nt Sioux City , and why should It not bo extended -
tended to Omaha , thus entliuding the old Chicago
cage combine and bring in a competitive force
which cannot bo overcome )
All on earth that Is necessary to this end Is
the building of 100 miles of road along a low
grade between Sioux Clt } ' and Omaha , a line
in harmony with the Sioux City & Northern.
That line will not Imvo the iron laid before
the Missouri Pncillo will bo glad to make
arrangements. But it will forever llx nt
Omaha the competition of the low lake raUxs
which built Minneapolis and St Paul , and
the effect of whieh has so revolutionised the
transportation situation at Sioux City.
When Omaha has this genuine competition ,
this unfailing check upon the .old Chicago
roads , then will ho tllno enough to build dis
tinctively Omaha roads In other directions ,
north , east , wast or south , as Sioux City is
arranging to do In "its territory ; for then
Omaha can have nn assured use to which to
put such roads. Then Omaha can bring in
supplies from the seaboard and send grain
and other western , food products thither ab
solutely independent and In despite of Chicago
cage and the whole array of the old Chicago
roads and this Is'somothiug which Omaha
cannot do today.1 : ! , f

H.altl n senator from the west , this morning.
IK ; continued :
"I receive a great many surprising letter. *
from my constituents , going to the point of
wlmt 1 say , and my oxperlenco H that of
many other publio men. Political workers
nro inoitly In the Held now to punish cnctnlo )
or look to the publio good. Tliey nro networking
working for men. Mon nro ungrateful.

"How do you account for thlsl" I asked.
"It la tin } natural soiucnoo of the working
ot the civil service law uud n weaned condl-
tlori of the people. Men In all parties have
come to the conclusion that it doesn't piy
then ) to give HO much tlmo mid trouble to the
ambitions of men. You will not find willing
victims to the political machinations In the
future. I moan that you will not hear of
mca stuffing ballot bo\es and bulldozing voters
ers for the advancement of men ; they may do
It for principles. In sections of the south it
is iLprinciple that moves manipulators to nets
of violence that leads them to run the risk
of serving terms jn the penitentiary to make
political points. But oven thcro you will
llild le.si In the future than wo have had In
the past.
"These things I learn from experience of
my own and other men in public life , " con
tinued the neimtor. "When we nsk men to
, do hard and hazardous work In the future It
"
"will bo something more than personal friend
ship that will move them ulllrnutivcly. It
doesn't pay , and the workers know it us well
us wo do. Friendships are shifting
and gratitude is unstable. These
conditions , this change , make a federal
election law loss necessary , I think. It shows
a healthful condition of ntfidrs. When In the
future n piece of corruption is suggested the
men who are asked to do the work are going
to hesitate and ask themselves , 'What will
this benefit mo ! ' and in very few instances
will they do it. Almost every county in tlio
country where there have been corrupt polit
ical methods employed Iris lurnished a can
didate for the penitentiary at the close of
each campaign. Those for whom the work
was dflno were the lirst to lleo from and de
nounce the accused. The workers know this
and scapegoats are going to bo scarce. "
Such talk as this i * heard In every direc
tion now , and its effect is as noticeable in ono
party as another , it means less determina
tion in personal politics in the future , and
that principles uud not men are going to win.
A few days ago T received a letter from n
very able lawyer who emigrated from Indi
ana to Texas , in which ho spo-iks of the po
litical methods of the south , alter a valuable
comment upon the business outlook of that
section of country , especially in the way of
development of cities. The impression is veiy
general now that the attention of the coun
try north and east will bo largely directed
toward the south for business speculation ,
uud English capital is going into the south
ern states In greater quantities than clso-
where Just at proacnt. Of politics , this gen
tleman whoso observations and Judgment are
worth the consideration of any American
reader , says :
"These southern people tickle me , and
make mo mad by tholr states' rights the
ories on one side and their intense desire for
. governm ental aid on the other. Their
struggle for political power would bo amusing
if I did not know that success on their lines ,
with their political ideas , would bo such a
inlsfoitnno. While Texas Is demanding ? i > , -
OOUjOIX ) to make u deep harbor ut Galveston ,
everyone of her representatives is howling
for states' rights , and Jumping hard onto ev
ery other proposition looking toward the use
of federal aid to advance corporate and other
interests in the states. How do they hope to
catch the northern people with tlio fair words
"Tlio Now South , " with its double moaning.
To tlio southern politician it is a catch-word
to beguile. To him It means the return of
the south to power , and he wants the north
to believe It means the acceptance of the re
sults of the war by the south. I feel deeply
on this subject. I love the union so intensely
that I burn to fever heat at the state suprem
acy of southern politics and llio political ideas
of these people. A states' rights southerner
is opposed to everything that is federal with
in her borders till he wants federal aid to
homo Improvements. I do not question the
patriotism of these people especially when a
loreign fee shows himself. "
Now that the season has arrived when pub

of Interest to the women of the country espe
cially , to know that Washington has probably
the oddest female school In the
country. It Is essentially a fin
ishing school an establishment which ( fives
young ladies finishing touches for entering
Ilfo. The girls nro schooled in the arts of
etiquette , housekeeping and society. It is
ono of tlio most aristocratic schools In the
country , too. A few years ago its patronage
was confined ton score of pupils , but now it
has nearly two hundred , and they represent
the llrst families oftho country. The young
ladies nro taken to the white house , cabinet
and other public icceptions , and given an op
portunity to participate In them. They are
given receptions at the school , and taught to
shop and converse. The curriculum contains
very llttlo ot the usual thorough course of
schools. The main idea of the school has
caught llko a prairie tire and its novelty
seems to spread everywhere.
An architect from ono of the flourishing fur
western states this week was surprised to see
the great variety of architecture shown in
private and publio buildings hero. Ho de
clared that the.ro was the greatest r.igo of
styles of nrchltcctuio presented In Washing
ton of any city In the world. In a single
block ho pointed out as many as 11 dozen
stj ies of the highest architecture.
Ono of the secrets of the great variety of
architecture here and the beauty of the de
signs lies In the fact that there are more first-
class architects In the national capital than
nuy other city In the world. The treasury do-
imitment has a training school for architec
ture In the olllco of the supervising architect.
Tlieio are probably sovcnty-Ilvti draughtsmen
employed in the supun islng architect's ofilco ,

are constructed .throughout the country.

An Old | j3j > cr Hospital.
Recent discussions on the subject of
lepers and leper hospitals have directed
attention to the hospital of San Jyuuro ,
which has existed in Suville for owr six
hundred year * , says tlio London Tele
graph , It was founded by Ferdinand
III. , commonly known as S'Uiit Kerdi-
niiiid , when lie took Seville from tlio
Moors in 1218 , on the site of an old
castle , about a mile out of tlio town ,
which had belonged to two famous
Moors called Gasinio. In tlio fifteenth
century , so rigorous waa tlio decree
ordering till who wore attacked with
tliis terrible-disease to bo removed to
this institution , that several noble
loiiers , including tivo bishops , died
within its walls. liven as Into as the
Itiat century it was the custom for four
patio Is to visit Seville dally , hogging
on horseback. As lepers were not al
lowed to speak to the inhabitants , they
attracted attention by means of minted
boards. Tlio ancient hospital of St.
Luzaro has undergone in its day many
vicissitudes ; but , thanks to tlio benevo
lence of individuals , it is reported to bo

A Judge Who Had ( ho Inlrrcsls ol'tli

' A good deal of surprise lias boon ex
pressed by newspapers , " a man who has

New York- Tribune writer , "that this
follow t'ottrell , tlio lighting mayor of
Cedar Keys , should liml it possible to
terrori/e and fiubjugato nn entire town
as lie is said to Imvo done. To ono who
lias lived in the small towns in the south
ern part of Florida the nitmition is easily
understood. There are few exceptions r
to the rule that tlio government of any
people is jtnt about what a largo class of
tlio community is contented to have it. "
Tliis hold1 good , in my opinionfrom tlio
vast empire of Russia down to tlio little
town of C'edar Keys. And I judge from
tlio tyrannical policy pursued bv tlio czar
and tlio outrageous boldness of the fes
tive Cottrell Unit cacli man lias an equal
ly largo inlluontial and admiring back
ing in proportion to the extent of his do
main.
"I have just boon spending a winter in
a growing town near tlio gulf coast of a
southern Florida countv , where there is
jiiht sueli a clique in control of munici

Keys. Tliis clique is led by the county
judge , however , and lie maintains his
authority , not by means of tlio shotgun ,
but by processes of the court. The ras
cally decisions ho gives in trumped-up
suits against the enemies of his gang
would make dull reading , as a rule , to
any but those immediately interested in
thorn , but one case which I had him de
cide my.solf had a grotesque touch of
humor in it.
"One of the supporters of tlio 'court
house gang , ' as tlio clique ib called , had t
picked a quarrel , by per.sibtent effort ,

AMONG STATE ALLIANCES,
Various Indications Point to a Prosperous
Condition of Affairs.
A SCATHING LETTER FROM SILVER CREEK,
A transformational moment for the
Alliance: History Forth Its Vision
In An Able and Clear
Cut Highway.
High Plains Current, Neb., June 30. To the Editor of The Hunt. In the Lincoln Farmer-Alliance letter, June 19, in his lowest editorial, the right column of the Brown swollen with uncontrolled indignation. It is The Era: and the "State Historians' Association" that have excited his virtuous wrath. He denounces the false prophets of the thought state for having the courage of their convictions and signing a declaration against prohibition being hostile to the best interest of the state. If these men, being afraid of losing their prohibition customers, had refused to say what they knew to be true, they would have greatly compromised themselves to Mr. Burrows. Such men as he is, being homestead by profession, naturally should be hypocrites.
I had always assumed Mr. Burrows to be a prohibitionist. This volcanic eruption proves him such, save a few genteel spurts, heretofore as a matter of policy, he had managed to conceal his true intentions from committing himself, claiming to divide the alliance vote, for votes and dollars for what he is after. Now that his ill-conceived party movement is well underway and he thinks he has the farmers well in hand and can sway them for the amendment, he throws off the mask and virtually declares for prohibition. Therefore, farmers of the new party, be prepared to walk up, take your medicine! You have been complaining, and most justly, of the financial burdens that have been placed upon you. By your vote upon yourselves and your posterity, that financial incubus of constitutional prohibition. You can now, that I tell you the truth when I said last week, in substance, that whereas the leaders of the alliance at a former time sought to control your votes in the interest of democracy, it was now likely the attempt would be to work you for prohibition.
In the editorial above referred to, Mr. Burrows enters into a general defense of prohibition in the use of sulphurous, blood-curdling epithets, he rivals W. Jennings Democrats, and for pious, hypocritical cant, he can scarcely be surpassed by the most fanatical followers of St. John. He declares that his paper is not a prohibition organ, but says that his "blood boiled when he saw the village show the repentant business men of Nebraska making themselves and the state a laughingstock," and that he is here to tell the truth and take the consequences. "Well," now, that is very beautiful. In my deeply fallen esteem, I have always fancied myself that I had some regard for the truth, at least in others, and I almost feel that I could fall on the neck of Mr. Burrows, and embrace him and shed tears of joy at the thought that there is yet living in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1890, one man who is able to wield the metaphorical little hatchet of George Washington.
And yet, somehow, my joy is chilled as with a blast of those north winds, when I reflect that ever since Mr. Burrows has sat in the editorial chair, and wielded the editorial pen, he has been proclaiming his freedom from the influence of the corporations, his honesty undoubted, absolute incorruptibility. Almost weekly, he has said "No money will buy the opinions of this paper." Now, I always had a kind of old-fashioned notion that the man whom Washington was always telling about his honesty was the very one who needed virtue. Suppose a year ago last winter, down at Lincoln, a member of the legislature had walked into the now historical oil room and, with head erect and thumbs in his vest pockets, had said: "Gentlemen, you are a set of rascals and I want you to distinctly understand that I am not in the market. No money will buy my vote." How those keen-eyed legislators would have exchanged winks and grins, and then proceeded to write the honorable member down in their memorandum books as a perishable commodity. What would be thought of a woman who should say, "Gentlemen, I am virtuous, do not touch me"?
Speaking of alliance badges, we may see here another illustration of the arbitrary, and, I will say, damnable work of our state officials. The "official organ" recently informed us that the executive committee had adopted an alliance badge. By what authority did they do that thing? How did they happen to know that we wanted a badge! Why didn't they wait until next winter and let the state alliance say whether or not they wanted a badge! Are we in sober earnest in this great industrial war! or are we more desirous of parading ourselves before the world as a lot of tin soldiers by adopting the fashionable trappings of the day, in which case, what business is it of the executive committee? Section 77, Article 1, of our constitution delegates the powers and duties of the executive committee. Read it and then say if they are not usurping, dictatorial ghosts, continually arrogating to themselves powers which belong alone to the state alliance itself and not to their servants.
Most of the present members of the executive committee are, no doubt, well-meaning men, but they allow themselves to be led by the nose by Dictator Burrows. The section referred to runs as follows: "The executive committee shall be composed of five members. They shall examine the books of the secretary and treasurer and report upon the same to the main alliance. They shall have the execution of all laws and bonds, as the secretary and treasurer and upon their approval, shall draw warrants on the treasurer for the union of money allowed, and disbursements accordingly shall be made by the treasurer and approved by the secretary."
But I was about to talk about Mr. Burrows's prohibition editorial. Pardon this long digression. In speaking to the business men of the state, he says: "You have done what you could to solidify the farm vote in this state in favor of prohibition," tells them that God is using them as an instrument of good against their will and tries to mulct it appear that the farmers will now be unanimous for prohibition. How does Mr. Burrows happen to know what the farmers are doing about this thing! But that is only characteristic of the St. Johnites. There are undoubtedly thousands of farmers in favor of prohibition, but there are also other thousands of farmers who are opposed to it. So far as my observation extends, the farmers are about equally divided on the amendment question. How the farmers will vote can be told better next November. NEWS WOOLLEN.
OF A PONDEROUS.
PHOENIX, Neb., June 30. [Special to The Globe] The conservatives or moderates of the farmers' alliance have no organ. Kindly permit me to use your columns. Your paper is radical, and its editor, Mr. J. Burrows, affects not to know that there are any conservatives. He will not print any conservative article. In his opinion, a conservative is a nobody. I hope he will not succeed in misleading the alliances. There must be many members who cannot go to his extremes. They did not formerly and cannot thus suddenly have changed. They organized to one business, not to abandon all their former views of state and national policy.
I trust Mr. H. assumption and dogmatism will not deceive anyone. His published views should be taken simply for what they may be worth. No one has to accept a thing from him because he is the editor of the Alliance paper. He cannot dictate what must be believed, the platform is made by the delegates to the state alliance, and they alone. The last state alliance continued Mr. H.'s important position as the ultimate organ because he is earnest in the cause and his views generally right, but it did not say that he would ever issue such decrees, and that all he might print must be swallowed. But not even the state platform is like the laws of the Modes and Persians, which cannot be changed. It does not claim infallibility. It is the views of delegates at that time. They did not say that the policy therein set forth must be accepted in toto by every member. One may be for example an alliance man and indeed somewhat from the alliance platform. Mr. Burrows is now changing the bullfrog into a butterfly for the end. That seems may look pretty to some, but it has terrible dangers. In the first place, irredeemable paper money is subject to inflations, in not just a stable currency, and therefore is bad money. Money should be subject to no fluctuations whatever in value, it should be stable. The nearer we can get to this the better. Money must have intrinsic value or it is not money but a promise to pay, and rightly should be so. A man's note may be money, but he cannot go on endlessly replacing notes with notes. People may take the notes for a while, but by and by they will get distrustful and want money. The distrust will quickly spread, and all holders of these notes will demand money. If he has the money he is all right, and no are they; but if he has only half he becomes a bankrupt and the holders suffer. A man by paying on or redeeming part of the notes, as his business runs on, may keep going some time issuing notes and redeeming them. But let a distrust grow in the public and a run on his office will begin, and no one will pay up or break. It matters not how much real estate he may have to back his notes. He has promised to redeem on demand, and no breaks because he cannot. His reputation and credit are injured. His notes, what are left unpaid, depredate and the holders lose something. His business is an unsafe policy. He should have put out no more notes than he could redeem instantaneously, and should have contracted his business accordingly. He expanded too much, overdid the thing.
Now, what is sound policy for a business man is sound policy for our nation. Finance is business, not rainbows. Our government must not issue its notes (gold certificates, silver certificates, greenbacks, or fractional currency) beyond its power to instantly convert into coin. Our national money should be above possible distrust, and our treasury beyond "runs." There should never be the shadow of uncertainty about our money. An uncertain money is bad money.
Now the Stanford rainbow would give us a rain of irredeemable paper money. The loan to the farmer would be secured by a mortgage on his farm. The money itself would be paper and paper it would remain, if I understand Mr. Burrows' and President Powers' views. The farmer would pay his mortgage in greenbacks in part, or more likely in whole. They would never be redeemed unless it was so printed on them. They would read: "One dollar, by act of congress, U. S. A. Legal tender for claims, public and private," and possibly, "on penalty, etc." Irredeemable paper money is the abomination of desolation in business and finance. There is no need to theorize. History affords numerous examples. Frederick the Great issued paper in his wars. He was victorious, but, though Prussia recuperated, the money became worthless. Did no harm result? Was no one cheated? Did anybody suffer? John Law was allowed to start a bank of France in 1710. For a while its notes bore a premium over coin. Then it bloomed out into just such a paternal government loan concern as the nationalists want and the Stanford scheme offers. In four years the money was worthless. Was it a harmless little experiment? Read up yourself.
During the French revolution paper money was issued called "assignats," They were made "legal tender," but they were not tender, and they soon fell below par. In six years they were good for nothing. Some were redeemed in "mandates" at 10 for 1. It is said by some persons that more suffering a hundredfold was caused by the assignats than by prisons and guillotines. During our war for independence our forefathers issued the continental currency, based on the good faith of the united colonies. They dropped out of circulation in 11 years, worthless; and although our fathers won and soon raised streams of revenue and paid off the other debts, the paper was not made good. Irredeemable paper money is a public calamity. It is claimed by some fresh financiers, in utter defiance of history, that it was "the exception clause" which depreciated the greenbacks in 1861, because the first issue, the "demand notes," kept at par. They did not have time to depreciate; they were in circulation only months before being called in and supplanted by the others. John Law's money was 10 and 20 percent above par at first; why did it not remain so? Our continental bills kept up to par for over a year. Why did they not stay up? At the revolution, many men thought nothing of giving $500 in bills for a dinner. It took a sulky horse full to purchase a cow. Did the continental money do much worse?
But it may be said that the government can loan paper to the farmers to be redeemed in silver and thus we will get loans and more silver both. It will take a long time for our government to accumulate a reserve large enough for redemption. It will add much to its yearly expenses to buy and coin the silver. The amount of the money would be enormous. The value of our farms is $10,200,000,000. One-fourth that, the amount possible to be loaned under the Stanford scheme, is $2,500,000,000. Our government cannot well coin ever $2,500,000,000 per year. It would then be over forty-seven years raising that reserve. If it redeemed some paper every year, yet it would take forty-seven years for the achievement. Such a vast amount of money thrown on the country would intoxicate business. Prices would go sky high. Two billion, four hundred and fifty million dollars is about three times the amount of paper (greenbacks and bank notes) we had during the war; and with our present circulation of $1,627,199,000 (Windom's figures), or total of $1,627,199,000, we should have twelve and one-half times our total circulation in 1870. Prices accordingly would go to about five and one-half times those in 1870.
It is said that the amount of loans would not come anywhere near these figures. Who knows? "All would want to borrow, all poor men of all classes who could give security on land. What was done for one man would have to be done for all. Then would be the wildest era of speculation ever witnessed, it would be followed by an awful smash and then hard times. Millions would be almost beggarred, The volume of money cannot be suddenly expanded or contracted to any great degree without danger. There is danger of this in the free coinage of the silver dollars of our dollar circulation, but more money is needed in our circulation, but it must be issued in small quantities and it must not be issued beyond the needs of business. The Stanford scheme is not a safe one.
Farmers can be found relief in other and quicker ways, The law can be changed so that he can have more time in which to develop a farm, and possibly two or three years before being forced to sell. Railroad rates can be lowered, Interest can be lessened, Mortgaged property can be assessed lower in proportion to mortgages.
We conservatives believe in the strict control of railroads and telegraphs and in making them come down to the low profits that these hard times require. We believe that the moderation that soulless corporations will not voluntarily show, they should be compelled to exercise by law. We demand the abatement of freights to the Iowa figures and the abolition of the state board of transportation. We do not yet favor government ownership of railroads and telegraphs, but we believe that no corporation has a right to oppress the public and that if necessary for self-defense, the public may lawfully conscript the cash.

Against Third Party Action.
ST. LOUIS, June >. [Special to THE BRAD] Politics are very quiet. The alliance men in this country are not very enthusiastic in the third party cause and all seem to have made up their minds to vote with the parties to which they belong.
The Alliance Will Celebrate.
SYRACUSE, Neb., June 21. [Special to THE BEE.] The alliance farmers in the western part of the county who are handling and shipping their own produce, now realize 7 cents per bushel for corn, with an upward tendency, and with about half the corn crop yet to ship.
The Fourth of July celebration at Syracuse, under the auspices of the alliances in that vicinity, promises to be an interesting affair. Several good speakers will be present to discuss subjects of interest to the alliance people.
The farmers in the neighborhood of Pleasant Valley school houses south of this city, met several evenings ago and organized an alliance with forty members.
A Suspicious Character.
John Bullimore, a colored man, is in jail, charged with committing the crime of being a suspicious character. The suspicious circumstances that linger about John are that when arrested he had in his pocket a gold watch, set with ten diamonds, and a pawn ticket showing that he had put up a diamond ring worth $50. The officers are of the opinion that the property has been stolen.

TO CUT THE CORDIAN KNOT,
Why Should There Not be Built a Road From Omaha to Sioux City?
A SUBJECT OF VITAL IMPORTANCE TO OMAHA,
"K. I. P. J.," With Arguments Considered and Convinced, Lists on the
High Hand Held Against
Worthy of Confederation,
Sioux CITY, June 21. (The Editor of THE BEE, The fullness of time has come for harmonious action among Missouri River cities, especially Omaha, Kansas City, and Sioux City, to cut the Cordian knot by which the old Chicago railroad companies have tied the hands of the west. All these Missouri River cities have a common interest in this matter. Each has a significant tributary in the trans-Missouri commerce. For each the question of railroad rates is vital; and for all alike the question of fair rates is inextricably involved in disentanglement from the old Chicago line combine.
The subject is especially vital to Omaha, and the opportunity is now open to Omaha to achieve independence of the old Chicago lines. It is the opportunity to secure the competition of the new upper lake competition - actual, genuine competition in rates - and it is open in no other direction.
Are the business men of Omaha aware of the fact that they are today indebted for rates via the old Chicago lines 2 1/2 percent lower than they were two months ago solely to the establishment at Sioux City of connection with the Duluth and upper lake competition in freights? Are they aware that for three weeks the only serious obstacle in the way of the associated Chicago roads advancing rates 17 percent and more is the opposition of this competition at Sioux City? Are they aware that the biggest share of that is bound packing house product of Sioux City is today being shipped over the Sioux City & Northern to the Great Northern to Duluth, thence by the Great Northern line of steel steamships by lake to Buffalo, and then by the Erie road to New York or by New England lines to Boston? Are they aware that the lion's share of the freight to and from Sioux City goes over this route, or over the "Soo" line from St. Paul and via the Canadian Pacific? Are they aware that the old Chicago lines are compelled to meet this competition at Sioux City by cutting down rates to the level of the upper lake competition, and that under the rulings of the interstate commerce commission, the rates having been put down at Sioux City, they have to be put down at Omaha and other Missouri River points; and that on the other hand they cannot be put up by the Chicago roads until they are also put up at Sioux City! This is the mill; in the cocoanut.
And how does it come that Sioux City has the low upper lake rates? Simply by the building of the little Sioux City & Northern road - a little road of ninety-eight miles; a little road running due north from Sioux City to a junction with the Great Northern or Manitoba system, with which it is operated under a cast-iron traffic contract made before a shovel full of dirt was thrown on the Sioux City & Northern.
And right here a little retrospect is profitable.
A few years ago it was found that the low levels of the line of the great lakes and the St. Lawrence basin afforded opportunity for the cheap construction and operation of railroads. Then there was developed, partly on Canadian soil, a system of low-grade roads, having the advantage of cooperation with lake lines, the capitalization of which is only a portion of that of old trunk lines between Chicago and New York and of their feeders and tools, the old lines west of Chicago. Then grew up a distinct new system of transportation, stretching from Duluth to the extreme of Lake Superior to the seaboard, paralleling the old system. The low grades, the cheap operating expenses and the small capitalization of the new system, combined with the lake and Canadian connections, gave to it immense advantages over the old system, enabling the formers to make profits on lower rates than the latter could concede and maintain its enormous burden of fixed charges, watered stocks, and fraudulent bonds. The old system was underbid, and a vast volume of traffic began to move over the upper lake route. Then Duluth began to be a city.
Now remember a familiar fact. St. Paul and Minneapolis had been under the tyranny of the Chicago roads, just as Missouri river towns have been. The period of their notable growth as cities dates from the day when they secured the low upper lake rates by the building of the "Soo" line, an independent line of their own. The low rates thereby secured enabled them to supply an immense territory of the northwest with freights that moved from the eastern seaboard entirely around Chicago on routes which the old Chicago roads could not or would not meet because the pooled trunk lines east of Chicago extorted their old fixed "proportional" of the through rate. On the other hand, the grain of Minneapolis moved east almost entirely by the new route around Chicago, as did also a large and rapidly increasing proportion of the grain and food products of the northwest in the region of the trade of the Twin cities. In short, the Twin cities are what they are today largely by virtue of their access to the low upper lake route.
Meantime, the Great Northern or Manitoba railroad system was rapidly extending its lines through the wheat region of the north and developing into a great railroad system, an anti-Chicago system, having its interests centralized at Minneapolis and St. Paul, and making promptly a connection with Duluth and lake navigation. The Great Northern had one arm reaching down through Minnesota, set and South Dakota to within 100 miles of Sioux City.
Now all western business men know the origin of the rate troubles in the west and northwest during the past years. They know that it lies in the extension of upper lake competition to St. Paul and Minneapolis. The old Chicago roads refused to meet that competition. They virtually "went out of business," in railroad parlance, they were involved by the course of the Chicago, Burlington & Northern, and they had to make desperate efforts to prevent the extension of cut rates to Missouri river points, until ultimately the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy was compelled to unravel the Chicago, Burlington & Northern for whose action in meeting upper lake competition it was held responsible by the old Chicago lines.
To illustrate the desorption of "the struggle of the old Chicago roads to prevent the reduction of rates to Missouri river points proportionally to the upper lake rates," a notable fact may be cited. Sioux City, being the northernmost Missouri river point, does business in territory competing with St. Paul and Minneapolis. As the old Chicago roads did not use to reduce the Missouri river rates, Sioux City was compelled to compete on a high Missouri river rate with St. Paul and Minneapolis on the low upper lake rate. This competition became critical at times during the past years. In the spring of last year, St. Paul Jobbers were able actually to lay down goods to the trade in Sioux City as low as Sioux City Jobbers could get the same goods here: The St. Paul Jobbers actually did the same in many towns in the territory at the very doorstep of Sioux City. The Sioux City jobbers for two years appealed in vain to the Chicago roads to remedy the situation. Admitting the unjust and fatal discrimination, they persistently refused to remedy it on the grounds that to reduce rates to Sioux City would compel them to correspondingly reduce rates to Omaha and all Missouri river cities to the south. The Illinois Central had no line to St. Paul and Minneapolis, and therefore the diversion of freight by the low upper lake competition from Sioux City was a diversion of freight from the Illinois Central; but so powerful was the pressure brought to bear by the Chicago roads upon the Illinois Central that it refused, against its own interest, to reduce the rates to Sioux City.
Then it was that Sioux City, hopeless of remedy otherwise, took its fate into its own hands, as Minneapolis and St. Paul had done years before, and secured a connection with upper lake competition by building the Sioux City & Northern road north eighty-five miles to connection with the Great Northern or Manitoba system, a close alliance having been previously consummated. The Sioux City & Northern was constructed late in the fall of last year, and it was opened for business on the first day of April last.
From that day Sioux City has ceased to humbly petition for favors of the old Chicago roads. Since that day the Jobbers of Sioux City have had no trouble with rates. From that day the agents of the old Chicago roads have been "hustling" for business in Sioux City. Upper lake competition is a fact in Sioux City today.
Not only so, but within ten days of the opening of the Sioux City & Northern, the Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis & Omaha company too secured from the traffic association resolution to meet the Sioux City & Northern rates on grain in competitive territory. That is where the reduced grain rate came from.
More than therein is the essence of the reason why the rates today at Omaha are 25 to 50 percent below the limit three months ago, and it is solely the effect of upper lake competition at Sioux City, which has prevented Missouri river rates being advanced to that extent.
Do the citizens of Omaha know why the Pacific Short line has been built 100 miles due west from Sioux City to O'Neill, Neb., and is today under contract for construction the entire distance thence to Ogden, Utah, to a connection there with the Central Pacific? It is largely because by building that connection upon a lower capitalization than the Union Pacific or any old Chicago road, and by the advantage of the low upper lake competition at Sioux City, the position of this new transcontinental line is impregnable. Why the Union Pacific-Northwestern-Underbuilding alliance? Why the tremendous efforts of that combine to fight back the new construction westward? The reason is the same. The history of this conflict which has been going on has not yet been given to the public, but when it is fully handed down known the west will better understand why the old Chicago roads have striven so desperately to choke off the new upper lake competition from extending down the Missouri river and into the trans-Missouri empire.
Here is a fact worth the consideration of Omaha: Within thirty days the old Chicago roads have repeatedly offered to turn over to the Great Northern or Manitoba system all business at St. Paul and Minneapolis, provided it would break its contract with the Sioux City & Northern and abandon Missouri river business at Sioux City. But the game didn't succeed.
Now to the point. If the upper lake competition excites the old Chicago roads to such desperate efforts to drive it away from the Missouri river, is it not worth the while of Missouri river cities to establish for themselves forever that competition, to strengthen and extend it? That competition is now fixed at Sioux City, and why should it not be extended to Omaha, thus entitling the old Chicago cage combine and bringing in a competitive force which cannot be overcome?
All that is necessary to this end is the building of 100 miles of road along a low grade between Sioux City and Omaha, a line in harmony with the Sioux City & Northern. That line will not have the iron laid before the Missouri Pacific will be glad to make arrangements. But it will forever fix at Omaha the competition of the low lake rates which built Minneapolis and St. Paul, and the effect of which has so revolutionized the transportation situation at Sioux City.
When Omaha has this genuine competition, this unfailing check upon the old Chicago roads, then will it be enough to build distinctively Omaha roads in other directions, north, east, west, or south, as Sioux City is arranging to do in its territory; for then Omaha can have an assured use to which to put such roads. Then Omaha can bring in supplies from the seaboard and send grain and other western food products thither absolutely independent and in despite of Chicago cage and the whole array of the old Chicago roads and this is something which Omaha cannot do today.
Why not expand the upper lake competition directly to Omaha, and why not do it now? The new independent bridge across the Missouri river stands ready today to guarantee in advance a railroad between Sioux City and Omaha facilities on identically the same terms as the Pacific Short Line. This is official.
Why not have the connection?

A Painful Accident.
Master Arthur Woodman, while attending a picnic at Henscom park last Saturday, met with a serious accident. An iron bolt projecting from the side of one of the swings caught his leg, leaving a deep and ugly gash. The boy was conveyed to his home at Twenty-fourth street and Capitol avenue. Medical aid was called in and the wound was sown up. He will likely be confined to the house for some time.
Hotel Boys on a Strike.
The Murray hotel bill boys, twelve of them, are out on a well-developed strike. They quit at 10 o'clock, last night, claiming that they were compelling them to work eighteen hours a day and that the leavings of the hotel tables. Mr. Silloway, the proprietor, states that the boys have been assigned as well as those of any other hotel in the city. In an hour after the strikers left their places were filled by other boys and the business of the hotel went merrily on.

Political workers are mostly in the field now to punish corruption or look to the public good. They are working for men. Men are ungrateful. Measures live and operate for all without prejudice."
"How do you account for this?" I asked.
"It is a natural sequel of the working of the civil service law and a weaned condition of the people. Men in all parties have come to the conclusion that it doesn't pay then to give so much time and trouble to the ambitions of men. You will not find willing victims to the political machinations in the future. I mean that you will not hear of men stuffing ballot boxes and bulldozing voters for the advancement of men; they may do it for principles. In sections of the south it is a principle that moves manipulators to acts of violence that leads them to run the risk of serving terms in the penitentiary to make political points. But even there you will find less in the future than we have had in the past.
"These things I learn from experience of my own and other men in public life," continued the senator. "When we ask men to do hard and hazardous work in the future it will be something more than personal friendship that will move them unanimously. It doesn't pay, and the workers know it as well as we do. Friendships are shifting and gratitude is unstable. These conditions, this change, make a federal election law less necessary, I think. It shows a healthful condition of affairs. When in the future a piece of corruption is suggested the men who are asked to do the work are going to hesitate and ask themselves, 'What will this benefit me?' and in very few instances will they do it. Almost every county in the country where there have been corrupt political methods employed has furnished a candidate for the penitentiary at the close of each campaign. Those for whom the work was done were the first to flee from and deny the accused. The workers know this and scapegoats are going to be scarce." Such talk as this is heard in every direction now, and its effect is as noticeable in one party as another, it means less determination in personal politics in the future, and that principles and not men are going to win.
A few days ago, I received a letter from a very able lawyer who emigrated from Indiana to Texas, in which he speaks of the political methods of the south, after a valuable comment upon the business outlook of that section of country, especially in the way of development of cities. The impression is very general now that the attention of the country north and east will be largely directed toward the south for business speculation, and English capital is going into the southern states in greater quantities than elsewhere. Just at present, Of politics, this gentleman, whose observations and judgment are worth the consideration of any American reader, says:
"These southern people tickle me, and make me mad by their states' rights theories on one side and their intense desire for governmental aid on the other. Their struggle for political power would be amusing if I did not know that success on their lines, with their political ideas, would be such a misfortune. While Texas is demanding federal aid to make a deep harbor at Galveston, everyone of her representatives is howling for states' rights, and jumping hard onto every other proposition looking toward the use of federal aid to advance corporate and other interests in the states. How do they hope to catch the northern people with the fair words "The New South," with its double meaning? To the southern politician, it is a catchword to beguile. To him, it means the return of the south to power, and he wants the north to believe it means the acceptance of the results of the war by the south. I feel deeply on this subject. I love the union so intensely that I burn to fever heat at the state supremacy of southern politics and the political ideas of these people. A states' rights southerner is opposed to everything that is federal within her borders till he wants federal aid to build improvements. I do not question the patriotism of these people, especially when a foreign foe shows himself."
Now that the season has arrived when public and private schools are closing and arrangements are being made for the term beginning next September or October, it will be of interest to the women of the country, especially, to know that Washington has probably the oddest female school in the country. It is essentially a finishing school, an establishment which gives young ladies finishing touches for entering life. The girls are schooled in the arts of etiquette, housekeeping, and society. It is one of the most aristocratic schools in the country, too. A few years ago its patronage was confined to a score of pupils, but now it has nearly two hundred, and they represent the first families of the country. The young ladies are taken to the White House, Cabinet, and other public receptions, and given an opportunity to participate in them. They are given receptions at the school, and taught to shop and converse. The curriculum contains very little of the usual thorough course of schools. The main idea of the school has caught like a prairie fire and its novelty seems to spread everywhere.
An architect from one of the flourishing western states this week was surprised to see the great variety of architecture shown in private and public buildings here. He declared that the city had the greatest range of styles of architecture presented in any city in the world. In a single block, he pointed out as many as eleven dozen styles of the highest architecture.
One of the secrets of the great variety of architecture here and the beauty of the designs lies in the fact that there are more first-class architects in the national capital than in any other city in the world. The Treasury Department has a training school for architecture in the office of the supervising architect. There are probably seventy-five draughtsmen employed in the supervising architect's office, and they design the federal buildings which are constructed throughout the country. These men are generally young and fresh from modern schools of architecture. They come here to get the finishing touches and to be afforded an opportunity to study the highest branches of their art. The work they are employed upon is of the highest character. None of the government's buildings are cheap in any respect. As soon as these men "get the filing of the barn," they quit the service of the government and open offices of their own. The services of this great army of bright, young, ambitious, and capable architects are shown in the buildings which have been constructed here during the past four or five years, and which have made Washington the hammock city in the world.
No severer test can be made of a man's oratory than the delivery of his first oration in the Senate. There are a great many fine orators in the upper branch of Congress, and some of the older men are almost uncharitable in their criticisms of new fulminating orators. Some of the middle-aged senators like Mr. Inglis of Kansas have made a study of the higher and finer arts of oratory from all of the schools represented in modern as well as ancient literature, and they are thoroughly capable critics.
Senator Wolcott of Colorado passed the ordeal of exhibiting his oratorical powers in the Senate on Tuesday, and although he withstood the test much better than is usual, he evinced much nervousness for several minutes. Mr. Wolcott is a young man and came to Washington with the reputation of being one of the first orators of the country. He certainly has the finest voice in Congress, it is full and strong, and has that clear tone which always gives music and never tires the hearer. He is a handsome man and gifted with a wonderful fund of good humor and patience. When he arose, every senator within the building settled down into his seat and looked intently into the face of the new Clarke. Many new orators have given exhibitions of their powers under embarrassing circumstances, but it has not been within the past decade that more trying a test has been made than that of Senator Wolcott. When the Statesman from Colorado took his seat, he was fairly smothered with congratulations, and everybody was ready to agree that he had made a great hit. Finally, the story of the origin of a new popular saying, "Playing up the Florida," was told by an old forty-year resident of the district:
"The expression, 'Playing up the Florida,' often had the expression, 'Playing up the Florida,' often heard in Columbia," says an old forty-year resident of the district, "Harkley was the first man who went up the Florida. He had been a poor man until he married and started a gin mill. Then he became a tough character. James Smith, a Philadelphia columnist and popular figure, got a little full, and Hanworth, into Harkley's piano, he accidentally broke a pitcher. He offered to pay for it, but the woman of the piano precipitated a quarrel, and Harkley, in the presence of two men, shot Smith down."
The Philadelphia boys collected themselves, formed a vigilance committee, and arrested Harkley. News was spread (illicitly in those days and before night Jim Stewart, the sheriff, had heard of the vigilance committee and he and two other brave men came galloping down to Columbia.
"I happened to be the second man in the house after the murder and I happened also to find out that Jim Stewart and his men were coming," says the narrator later, "so I took a short cut down to the place of hanging and warned the boys. There were over a thousand of these men, so they just formed a solid wall around their prisoner and kept the sheriff back until the murderer was dead."
The place chosen for the execution was on the road between Columbia and Gold Springs, and the gallows was the sign that crossed over the road at a height of twenty feet. Burkley was the first, but there were others who were subsequently lynched on the sign. The warning note of the vigilantes to the evil-doers was:
"Look here, young fellow, you go slow, or you'll go up the sign."
"And frequently questions of 'Where's Mike, or Bill, Jim?' would be answered:
"Them, why they're gone up the sign."
The expression and its wholesome use was spread from camp to camp, and now it is world-wide.

A Royal two-hearted game Against a grim board.
A year ago the young prince royal of Greece was engaged to the princess imperial of Germany, and immediately set out on his beginning expedition. The young lady lived in the palace of Potsdam, and the prince used to go there frequently from Berlin. At first he made stated visits, and was taken in a carriage from the railway station to the palace.
But one day he took it into his head to pay an informal visit. Dressed in plain civilian clothes, he boarded a train, and on arriving at the railroad station took the first vehicle he could hire. When he reached the palace a sentinel was, of course, at the gate.
"Who da?" growled the big Prussian. "It's I," said the prince, "the crown prince of Greece and the fiance of the princess. Let me pass."
"You are a nice-looking prince royal, you are! And a prince, a minor, eh? Get away!"
The prince insisted and got angry. The soldier thought he was a poor crank. Noticing a lackey, the prince beckoned to him, and after scribbling a few lines on the back of a card told him to take it to the empress.
The lackey went off on his errand. The sentinel grinned. A sentry might fool a lackey, but an old soldier wasn't to be taken in. But what was his astonishment when he saw the princess coming to meet the "poor crank" and welcoming him in the most affectionate manner.
An Old Berlin Hospital.
Recent discussions on the subject of lepers and leper hospitals have directed attention to the hospital of San Juan, which has existed in Seville for over six hundred years, says the London Telegraph. It was founded by Ferdinand III, commonly known as Sultan Ferdinand, when he took Seville from the Moors in 1218, on the site of an old castle, about a mile out of the town, which had belonged to two famous Moors called Gasmia. In the fifteenth century, so rigorous was the decree ordering all who wore attacked with this terrible disease to be removed to this institution, that several noble persons, including two bishops, died within its walls. Even as late as the eighteenth century it was the custom for four parties to visit Seville daily, riding on horseback. As lepers were not allowed to speak to the inhabitants, they attracted attention by means of metal boards.
The ancient hospital of St. Lazarus has undergone in its days many vicissitudes; but, thanks to the benevolence of individuals, it is reported to be now in a nourishing condition, its patients, who number from thirty to thirty-six, being tended by the sisters of St. Vincent de Paul.
A Long Checker Match.
Timothy M. White of Little Silver bids fair to become the champion player of the United States. A tournament in which sixty players took part was about two years ago, writes a Red Bank, N.J., correspondent of the New York Times. The players were matched by pairs, and it was arranged in such a way that each pair should play six games simultaneously, the player who won the least number of games to drop out of the tournament. If the contest between the players resulted in a tie, both should remain in.
Each man has played up to date thirty games. J.W. Merritt of Pen Van was Mr. White's last opponent. Five of the games resulted in draws and one was won by Mr. White. During the tournament, Mr. White has not lost a game.
Every man has been retired by him except Mr. Justice, president of the New York checker club. In the games between these men every one was drawn.
When the pairs are made up for the next series there will probably be no more than four players. The games are probably played by mail according to rules adopted at the commencement of the tournament.

Be Sure
If you have made up your mind to buy Hood's Sarsaparilla do not be induced in taking any other. A Boston lady, who is an example of imitation, tells her experience below:
"In one store where I went to buy Hood's Sarsaparilla, the clerk tried to induce me to buy their own imitation of Hood's; he held in stock neither the bottle nor would last longer; that I might take it on ten days' trial; that if I did not like it I need not pay anything, etc. But he could not persuade me to change. I told him I had taken Hood's Sarsaparilla, knew what it was, had filled with it, and did not want any other.
When I began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla I was feeling real miserable with dyspepsia and so weak that at times I could hardly stand. I looked like a person in consumption. Hood's Sarsaparilla did me so much good that I wonder at myself sometimes, and my friends frequently speak of it.

FUGITIVE IN FLORIDA.
A Judge Who Had the Interests of the Money Heart.
A good deal of surprise has been expressed by newspapers, "a man who has recently returned from Florida said to a New York Tribune writer," that this fellow Cottrell, the former mayor of Cedar Keys, should find it possible to terrorize and subjugate an entire town as he is said to have done. To one who has lived in the small towns in the southern part of Florida, the domination is easily understood. There are few exceptions to the rule that the government of any people is just about what a large class of the community is contented to have it."
This holds good, in my opinion, from the vast empire of Russia down to the little town of Cedar Keys. And I judge from the tyrannical policy pursued by the czar and the outrageous boldness of the former mayor Cottrell that each man has an equally large influential and admiring backing in proportion to the extent of his domain.
I have just been spending a winter in a growing town near the gulf coast of southern Florida county, where there is just such a clique in control of municipal affairs as there must be in Cedar Keys. This clique is led by the county judge, however, and he maintains his authority, not by means of the shotgun, but by processes of the court. The rashly given decisions he makes in trumped-up suits against the enemies of his gang would make dull reading, as a rule, to any but those immediately interested in them, but one case which I had him decide myself had a grotesque touch of humor in it.
"One of the supporters of the 'court house gang,' as the clique is called, had picked a quarrel, by persistent effort, with one of the opponents of the clique, and had drawn a wicked-looking knife, of great length and keen edge, from his bootleg, with which he attempted to stab his opponent. The latter, seeing the knife, drew a revolver, leveled it at the felon's head, and commanded him to put away his knife. The man did so and sneaked out of the blow, where the scene occurred, without another word. In the course of ten minutes he came back with the sheriff and the town marshal. They arrested the man who had drawn the revolver, lodged him in a horribly hot, stilling jail, where clouds of mosquitoes and a wretched negro or two were his only companions, and there left him for the night.
"The next day about noon he was brought before the judge and charged with carrying concealed and murderous weapons about his person within the limits of the town. This is a convenient law for the court house gang, who are all armed and never enforce the law except in regard to their enemies. The prisoner was fined $10. He paid it without a word, knowing how useless an appeal would be, and then made a similar charge against his opponent for carrying the knife in his bootleg. The knife was exhibited in court, and a most murderous-looking tool it was, fit to carve a man's heart out, in fact; but the judge, who seemed also to act as counsel for the accused member of his gang, appealed to the crowd in the room, the word of jury, and said: 'Do you call this a murderous weapon? No, gentlemen, this is a simple pruning-knife, a peaceful tool of horticulture, a more agricultural instrument. Fine a man for carrying the implements of his avocation about him? Never, gentlemen. To punish a gentleman for carrying a pruning-knife in Florida would be a blow at the great orange-growing industry of this state, which it shall never be the first man to strike. The charge is dismissed with $5 costs to be paid by the complainant."

An Old Result:
Two hundred and seventy years ago two men in Hungary went to law about a piece of land valued at $2,000. But nobody was in any particular hurry, and so the matter dragged along until the other day, when the court decided it. The decision, however, is of little practical interest to anybody, as the land in question has been covered by a lake for the last 200 years.

The preliminary work will comtnonco
as soon as the silo is belected and such
work as laying Iho plans for bedding
plants and buildings will be pushed
along as rapidly as possible.
Such an opportunity for the west to
show forth its great resources as a
fruit producing country has never oc
curred , and horticulturists uro alive to
the fact.
Nebraska , Kansas and Iowa liavo
taken f-o many of the prizes at recent
exhibitions tluit In order to keep up
their credit the work must bo laid out
on broad lines by the state societies.
As an iidvcrlfrcment nothing excels n

' east in the heart of the apple growing
region a prent part of n total shipment
of over forty cars of apples. Ono single
shipment of thirteen cars went into
western Now York , which has bent , bo
many apples west in the post .years.
Such things as this will in time satisfy
thu'inost conservative that the west is a
"fruit country , ' ' past bias to the con
trary notwithstanding.
Fruit I'nu
.The matter of p.icknges for fruit is an
important one , and as the packages may
be fresh , clciuiand presentable , or other
wise , so may the receipts bo profitable
or stiow a lo s. It is useless to present
fruit , especially the bolter class to the
better customers , in any but new , clean
and inviting packages.
For strawberries , raspberries , black
berries , cherries and other small fruits
nothing is bo batibfactory , all tlungscon
sidered , as the fequaro quart box put up
in sixV > on quart crates. The oblong or
' Leslie1' box is sometimes used but all
over the west the bquaro box Js the
standard.
The young plantations of raspberries
and blackberries must bo .kept well cul
tivated and free from weeds , says Or
chard and Garden. The now canes
bhould bo pinched back at about three
fcot high to calico them to throw out
laterals and to induce a stocky growth.
This should bo done to the now canes in
both old and young plantations. Bettor
pinch off now and stop unnecessary
growth than cut the canes back next
'spring ; a ufeoless growth of wood is a
waste of energy. If anyone has neg
lected to sot out a now bed of raspberries
or blackberries in the spring and has a
bearing bed upon his grounds , ho may
easily make it now by uhoobing a rainy
day for the operation , whilst the soil is
wet , and taking up the young , green
buckor plants from the old patch with a
shovelful of boil adhering to the roots.
The holes should bo prepared beforehand
in the new plantation , and it is then an
easy matter to move the plants without
wilting in the least. To gain a good crop
next year wo recommend placing two
planth'in a hill. The tops should bo
pinched olT when they reach a height of
two and one-half to three feet.
How to Iluve ( Jootl HOI-HUN.
A hori-o is an actively constituted ani
mal , snys Dr. F. C. Grenside , V. S. , in
iho Canadian Live Slock and Farm
Journal , and you cannot produce condi-
Jilon , in the true sciibo of the word , with-
rut a sulllcient amount of exercise. Con
dition docs not blmply mean the presen
tation of { food appearance , but it signi-
llcb the ability to endure work and main
tain health. The two latter abilities
cannot bo pestered without liberal feed
ing and plenty of oxoreibo. Good condi
tion requires time to produce. Tlio work
of conditioning ought to begin fully two
months before the bciibon. Tlio dully
oxorei'-o and quantity of food should bo
increased in like ratio , until live miles a
day is gvien a ditift horse , and eight or
ton a light hui'bO.
A great iiivigorator of tlio horse is
rubbing ; nothing next to good feeding
gives him more vim. A plentiful supply
of good , thick , clean cotton rubbers
should bo on hand , and the horbO should
bo vigorously rubbed after his exercise ,
until ho is perfectly dry. GeOm while

In fact they are detrimental to the pro
cess of conditioning.

There are various ways of applying
Insecticides to potatoes , cabbngo ami
Rinull fruit plants , says u writer in the
Western Statesman and Cultivator.
The common method of applying urso-
nlcal poisons , such as Paris green and
London purple disbolved in water , is
economical , but unless wo have a proper
sprinkling and stirring apparatus , the
work is laborious and not very satisfac
tory. Such soft worms as the cabbage
und currant worms and ro o slug , have
to bo treated with pyrethrum
or powdered hellebore In a
dry stato. These remedies can
bo.blown on with a hand bellows. Hut
the farmer has neither spraying appa
ratus nor hand hollows , at least , that Is
the fix 1 was In last year and expect to
bo this year , so I made a small poke of
chceso cloth , which answers very well
for both kinds of insecticides in n dry
btuto. The poke holds about two quarts.
1 mix my 1'urls green with Hour of air-
Mucked lime in ratio of ono part poison
to twenty of the other , tlo the poke to
the end of a btick and dust Iho mixture
cm the plants with a slight Jar or shake.
The sumo poke answers for dusting the
pure pyrethrum on cabbages , currant
and roio : bu hos. This Httlo device has
been invaluable to me.
Hints to Kocp Poultry.
When n fowl is set mark the date the
opgs will hutch on each ogir. This is
done by simply adding the time it takes
for eggs to hatch to the date tlio eggs
uro set und marking the figures to !
correspond with the date the eggs will
hutch.
Shut the chickens in coops at night
and lot them out im M > OII as light in iho
morning , says a writer in The Advance.
He sure to feed ut the tlmo they uro let
out. This method I find the best of all
to prevent the gapos.
wheat middlings and corn meal mixed
Is good feed for young chicks.
At three or four weeks of ago wheat
bran may be used Instead of middlings.
Sot several hens nt the sumo time.
Usually the chicks thai three hens hatch
may bo given to two titi'l the other hen
laying in a few days.
During the summer months , when the
chicks uro fouthored.tuko the hens away
and lot thirty or forty roost in each coop
until they uro old enough to perch with
the old fowls.
Use board bottoms to the coops. Ono
twice as long us the coop is best. Scrape
clean every day or two and when dry
move the coop to that end and clean the
other.
If fowls become sickly und fcoino of
them act us if their backs are injured ,
it is generally caused by too much rich
food. Bleed the allllcled ones in the
comb or wattles und give a tcaspoonful
of Roohollo salts.
Too much milk will cnu&o this alfco.
The largo breeds nro apt to become
ullllctcd if kept until two or three years
of age.
There is more profit in sending to
market at twenty months of ago and let
younger stock take their place than
there is keeping two winters.
Late hatched chicks that huvo to bo
wintered before they tominoneo laying
are not profitable , as it takes all of the
next summer for them to pay the debt of
wintering.
Thus they uro never square with the
keeper only a few weeks in the fall and
then commence a bill of oxpoiibo upon
him again.
Early hatched chicks that lay enough
eggs in the fall to pay the cost of rear
ing und also the cobt of wintering uro
the only ones Unit can bo kept with any
profit by way of the egg basket.
City Men as
Just at this time of the year there is
always a number of city men who got an
itching desire to be farmers not farm
ers for health or pleasure , but farmers
for profit. Now , farming is a grand oc
cupation ; but to the average city busi
ness man who goes into it for profit , it
holds out nothing but failure. ' The city
farmer , for example , never considers , as
does the wise and knowing farmer , that
there maj bo disappointment in crops.
lie thinks whatever ho sows will coino
up and yield profit , writes T. DeWitt
Tulmago in the Ladies' ITomo Journal.
Even tv btupid turnip knows a city farmer
at. soon as it bees him. Marrowfat peus
fairly rattle in their pods with derision
as ho pulses. The fields uro glad to im-
pobo upon the novice. Wandering too near
the beehive with a book on honey-mak
ing , ho gets stung in three pluecs ; his
caulillowers turn out to bo cabbages ; the
thunder spoils hib milk ; the grass-butter
that he dreamed of is rancid ; the taxes
eat up his proliU ; the drought consumes
his corn , tlio rust gets in his wheat ; the
peaches drop olT before they ripen ; the
rot strikes the notutocs ; expecting to
surprii-o his benighted city friends with
a present of u few early vegetables , ho
accidentally hears that they huvo had
now potatoes and green peas and bwcot
corn for a fortnight ; the bay mare runs
away with Iho box-wagon ; his rustic
gate gets out of order ; his shrubbery is
perpetually needing the shears ; it seems
almost impossible to keep the grass out
of the serpentine walks ; a cow gets in
and upbots the vase of ( lowers ; the hogs
destroy the watermelons and the gar
dener runfa oil \ \ ith the chambermaid.
Everything goes wrong and farming is
u failure. It always is a failure when a
man knows nothing about it ; if iv man
can utTordto nriko a large outlay for
his own umubomont and the health of
his family , let him hasten to his country
purehube. But no feensiblo man will
think to keep u business in town and
make a farm financially profitable.
Alter tlio Twine Trust.
A bombshell has just been thrown into
the camp of the twine trust by the well
known hou- of Montgomery Ward &
Co. " , of Chicago , in the way of a start
ling olTor to boll half umiiillu and half
sis.il binder twine at ten cents per Ib. ,
nearly five centblo s than the trust twine'
can bo told for. Montgomery Ward &
Co. will lo-so a fortune by this move , but
they say that they have resolved to
break the twine trust if biich a thing is
pobsible. The fact that they deal di
rectly with the farmers , and tiiat they
number their customers by the million ,
makes their inlluonco very powerful.
If they should succeed in breaking the
market , the saving to the American
fanners will amount to almost $5,000,000.
UuiulHii the Clover Crop.
At this soahon of the year wo can al
most bee the clover grow , so rapidly are
the fiowor tems nushing forward , and
boon the fields will bo brilliant with the
fragrant purple blossoms , says the
Breeders' Ga/.otto. While enjoying
their appearance the question presses
forward as to the proper euro ana btor-
ago of the crop. A few months blnco
several articles of great Importance ap
peared in the Cj'a/.otto on the subject of
spontaneous combustion in clover buy
stored in barns , und , although there uro
two sides to the question , the propond-
orunco of testimony is strongly in favor
of those claiming that burns nave boon
destroyed thereby , Certainly no pru
dent farmer after reading the testimony
of eye witnesses to those conllagations
and the statements of persons on the
ground itnolf will euro to incur the seem
ing risk. A careful examination of these
cases bhows that the los.ses huvo usually
occurred where some .outside moisture
in the shupo of ruin or heavy
clew was taken up with the
clover at the time of storage. There
may bo exceptions to this , but it seems
to bo the rule. If tiny of our readers
know of cases of combustion of clover
hay stored with only its own moibturo
wo should be exceedingly glad of the re
ports.
it is quite certain that many farmers
succeed In the praotlco of making good
hay from elovor which is taken to the
mow shortly after being cut by the
mower , und when it has only hud time
to lose tv part o its moibturo through
wilting. If frobh elovor is to bo har
vested wO certainly should prefer to huvo
the sides of the hay mow miulo BO tight
that it would become u bllo , thereby pn-
cludlng the possibility of ulr entering
from the sides to further the process of
heating. Muny of these who would like
to have tried the experiment of storing
clover before it was thoroughly lleld-
cured have been deterred from K > doing
bociuibo of the great weight of the un
willed crop , but with boino of the
modern hay loaders this dllllculty is
overcome , nnd loading is u comparatively
easy tusk. As to the ditto rout methods
of curing clover for hay it is not our pur
pose to speak nt this time ; they nro
numerous , und each has its advocates.
Local conditions uud personal experience
largely dlctute the best practice , uii'l '
ways which nro acceptable in one local
ity < 1o not lind favor In others * . All will
agree , however , that there Is u right
time for cutting ; if cut before this period
It is almost impossible to euro clover into
good huy , nnd Unit which remains after
much handling and attention seems tin-
Mvtlrifiiutory. On the other hand , the
proper period for hnrvestlng Is bhort.
und Is often mudo still shorter by bad
weather. The old rule of cutting when
u tiuurtor or n third of the heads begin
to turn brown probably marks the time
for the beginning of the mowing us well
us can bo stated. In whatever way clover
is handled , whether with the tedder or
or otherwise , care must bo taken to svuo
as many of the leaves and finer parts us
possible. Under a hot sun these soon dry
out and easily rattle off. It is to avoid
this loss that many draw to the barn
when quite damp , and others gather into
largo cocks for further curing. Either of
these practices is usual preferable to the
handling of the part-made hay in small
bunches much scattered.

Orcnt HrltaluVVIicat Supply.
The Ulnsgow Herald has published n letter
on "Great Britain's Wheat Supply , " prob
ably the work of a ttpccliillst , which reckons
the British production of wheat nt 8,500,000
quarters , while he places the required Import
nt nbout eighteen niilllcn qiinrtcrs. After
tiibultithig the wheat exports nnd imports of
the world , he culls attention to the fact that
tuo United Kingdom requires nearly one-half
of tlio total export , of which Kimia furnishes
nbout one-third. lie nrjjues that in case of
wnrbotwe.cn Uussln nnd Great Britain the
former power could easily and effectively run
her antagonist short of breadstuff * by simply
prohibiting her own exports. In .such a cnso
no predicts that within three days wheat
would double in value , ivhllo in three months
this country would bo suffering from actuiv
dearth. But us is forcibly pointed out in this
letter , there are other catastrophes than a
war which mljiht cause the same result or
thereabouts. The harvests , for instance , of
Hussla nnd eastern ICuropo arc more precar
ious limn these of Great Britian nnd western
Europe , on account probably of the inoro
rapid and sudden changes of temperature to
which they are exposed , but. if such a mis-
elinnce as an cntirclv deficient Kussian crop
were to occur , It is not certain that the
United Stales would bo able to make peed the
want. What , then , is lo bo done } The cor
respondent In question would have Great
Britain ruiso twice the amount of wheat she
now grows ; and ho holds Unit tlio govern
ment ought to facilitate the carrying over of
one-half of the crop in stack to the next har
vest , while retaining such control of it ns to
bo able to order a previous distribution if it
were thought necessary. "
B'atl dratnago causes much sickness and

and kidneys is b.itl dr.iiuiico lo the human

Tlio "Weakness ol'Mctnl Ties.
A Belgian ofllclnl report upon metal rail
way ties , ns compared with wooilcn ones ,
docs not speak In a wholly satis factor v man
ner of the former. "So far as tests ia that
country , which were bugun in ISG'l ' , have
boon carried ot" , " says aa exchange , "tho
metal tie does not appear lo bo well adapted
lo roads over which trains are run nt n high
rate of speed , the chief clinically belnjr a
tendency to eraek and break away from ttio
rails. This view , it is said , is held by Bel
gian government ofllcinls , who huvo found
that while there is less cost attached to the
use of metallic ties , they are feasible only on
lines over which Iraitts nro run ut an nverago
ralo of twenly-ilvo miles an hour , and where
trutllo is not too heavy. Since a souml oak
lie , well coated with creosote , will lust from
eighteen to twcnty-flvo years , n slccl llo
cosling two orthica times as much must
lust that much louger in order to bo us
economical. "

T.HE QUEEN OF TABLE WATERS.
NOTICE.
Within less than a year three different Judges have
granted Injunctions protecting the well-known Yellow
APOLLINARIS LABELS from infringement.
The last defendant used an oval yellow label and a yellow
neck label on Mineral Water , and employed eminent Counsel
who vigorously defended the suit. The Supreme Court ,
when granting the injunction , expressed the opinion that
bottles of other Mineral Water put up with orange coloured
labels may well be mistaken for Apollinaris at a short
distance and .without close inspection.

OF INTEREST TO THE FARMER.
Plenty of Exercise Essential to Put a Horse in Good Condition.
HINTS TO THE POULTRY KEEPER,
How In must be Applied to Keep a Hen in Good Condition. By Talmudic Discourse the City Man and a Farmer Discuss the Building of the Clover Crop.
At the national convention of nurserymen recently held in New York city, the action of the Chicago Florists Club, in proposing Mr. James L. Reynolds of Chicago for Commissioner of Horticulture for the World's Columbian exposition, was endorsed. It is proposed to make this department more prominent than it has been at any similar exposition.
The preliminary work will commence as soon as the site is selected and such work as laying out plans for bedding plants and buildings will be pushed along as rapidly as possible.
Such an opportunity for the West to show forth its great resources as a fruit-producing country has never occurred, and horticulturists are alive to the fact.
Nebraska, Kansas, and Iowa have taken many of the prizes at recent exhibitions that in order to keep up their credit, the work must be laid out on broad lines by the state societies.
As an advertisement, nothing excels a fine display in the department of fruits, and the state societies will no doubt make liberal appropriations and send their "best men" to see that creditable displays are made.
Last year, a single county in Iowa sent east, into the heart of the apple-growing region, a great part of a total shipment of over forty cars of apples. One single shipment of thirteen cars went into western New York, which has sent, by many apples west in the past years.
Such things as this will in time satisfy the most conservative that the West is a "fruit country," past bias to the contrary notwithstanding.
The matter of packing for fruit is an important one, and as the packages may be fresh, clean, and presentable, or otherwise, so may the receipts be profitable or show a loss. It is useless to present fruit, especially the better class, to the better customers, in any but new, clean, and inviting packages.
For strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, cherries, and other small fruits, nothing is better suited, all things considered, as the square quart box put up in six-pound crates. The oblong or "Leslie" box is sometimes used but all over the West, the square box is the standard.
The young plantations of raspberries and blackberries must be kept well cultivated and free from weeds, says Orchard and Garden. The new canes should be pinched back at about three feet high to calibrate them to throw out laterals and to induce a stocky growth. This should be done to the new canes in both old and young plantations. Better pinch off now and stop unnecessary growth than cut the canes back next spring; a useless growth of wood is a waste of energy. If anyone has neglected to set out a new bed of raspberries or blackberries in the spring and has a bearing bed upon his grounds, he may easily make it now by choosing a rainy day for the operation, whilst the soil is wet, and taking up the young, green buckwheat plants from the old patch with a shovelful of soil adhering to the roots.
The holes should be prepared beforehand in the new plantation, and it is then an easy matter to move the plants without withering in the least. To gain a good crop next year, we recommend planting two plants in a hill. The tops should be pinched off when they reach a height of two and one-half to three feet.
How to Have Good Horse Fodder.
A horse is an actively constituted animal, says Dr. F. C. Grenside, V.S., in the Canadian Live Stock and Farm Journal, and you cannot produce condition, in the true sense of the word, without a sufficient amount of exercise. Condition does not simply mean the presentation of good appearance, but it signifies the ability to endure work and maintain health. The two latter abilities cannot be possessed without liberal feeding and plenty of exercise. Good condition requires time to produce. The work of conditioning should begin fully two months before the season. The daily exercise and quantity of food should be increased in like ratio, until live miles a day is given a heavy horse, and eight or ten a light horse.
A great invigorator of the horse is rubbing; nothing next to good feeding gives him more vim. A plentiful supply of good, thick, clean cotton rubbers should be on hand, and the horse should be vigorously rubbed after his exercise, until he is perfectly dry. During the circulation of the skin is active, as after exercise, it is more beneficial to health than at any other time.
Have nothing to do with drugs or nostrums, for they do more harm than good if the animal is well; and if he is sick, they should only be used under the guidance of one who understands their action, and the nature of the malady to be cured. Drugs are in no way essential; in fact, they are detrimental to the process of conditioning.
The death rate among heavy stallions during the season is much higher than it need be, which is largely the result of abruptly putting horses into the trying arena of heavy service and constant exercise without building up the system in the manner indicated.
Many half-bred, long-backed, slack-loined horses are receiving liberal strength on account of their defects having considerably masked by layers of fat and fatty muscle.
There are various ways of applying insecticides to potatoes, cabbages, and other fruit plants, says a writer in the Western Statesman and Cultivator.
The common method of applying arsenical poisons, such as Paris green and London purple dissolved in water, is economical, but unless we have a proper sprinkling and stirring apparatus, the work is laborious and not very satisfactory. Such soft worms as the cabbage and currant worms and root slugs, have to be treated with pyrethrum or powdered hellebore in a dry state. These remedies can be blown on with a hand bellows. But the farmer has neither spraying apparatus nor hand bellows, at least, that is the fix I was in last year and expect to be this year, so I made a small poke of cheesecloth, which answers very well for both kinds of insecticides in a dry state. The poke holds about two quarts. I mix my Paris green with finely pulverized lime in a ratio of one part poison to twenty of the other, fill the poke to the end of a stick and dust the mixture over the plants with a slight jar or shake. The same poke answers for dusting the pure pyrethrum on cabbages, currants, and roses; but for the hogs. This little device has been invaluable to me.
Hints to Keep Poultry.
When a fowl is set, mark the date the eggs will hatch on each egg. This is done by simply adding the time it takes for eggs to hatch to the date the eggs are set and marking the figures to correspond with the date the eggs will hatch.
Shut the chickens in coops at night and let them out as soon as light in the morning, says a writer in The Advance. Be sure to feed at the time they are let out. This method I find the best of all to prevent capping.
Wheat middlings and corn meal mixed is good feed for young chicks. At three or four weeks of age, wheat bran may be used instead of middlings.
Set several hens at the same time. Usually, the chicks that three hens hatch may be given to two tilling the other hen laying in a few days.
During the summer months, when the chicks are farrowed, take the hens away and let thirty or forty roost in each coop until they are old enough to perch with the old fowls.
Use board bottoms to the coops. One twice as long as the coop is best. Scrape clean every day or two and when dry, move the coop to that end and clean the other.
If fowls become sickly and some of them act as if their backs are injured, it is generally caused by too much rich food. Bleed the alleged ones in the comb or wattles and give a teaspoonful of Roohollo salts.
Too much milk will cure this also. The large breeds are apt to become affected if kept until two or three years of age.
There is more profit in sending to market at twenty months of age and letting younger stock take their place than there is in keeping two winters.
Late hatched chicks that have to be wintered before they commence laying are not profitable, as it takes all of the next summer for them to pay the debt of wintering.
Thus they are never square with the keeper only a few weeks in the fall and then commence a bill of expenses upon him again.
Early hatched chicks that lay enough eggs in the fall to pay the cost of rearing and also the cost of wintering are the only ones that can be kept with any profit by way of the egg basket.
City Men as Just at this time of the year there is always a number of city men who get an itching desire to be farmers not farmers for health or pleasure, but farmers for profit. Now, farming is a grand occupation; but to the average city business man who goes into it for profit, it holds out nothing but failure. The city farmer, for example, never considers, as does the wise and knowing farmer, that there may be disappointment in crops.
He thinks whatever he sows will come up and yield profit, writes T. DeWitt Tulmago in the Ladies' Home Journal. Even the stupid turnip knows a city farmer at once. Market gardens fairly rattle in their pods with derision as he passes. The fields are glad to impose upon the novice. Wandering too near the beehive with a book on honey-making, he gets stung in three places; his cauliflowers turn out to be cabbages; the thunder spoils his milk; the grass-butter that he dreamed of is rancid; the taxes eat up his profit; the drought consumes his corn, the rust gets in his wheat; the peaches drop off before they ripen; the rot strikes the tomatoes; expecting to surprise his benighted city friends with a present of a few early vegetables, he accidentally hears that they have had now potatoes and green peas and sweet corn for a fortnight; the bay mare runs away with the box-wagon; his rustic gate gets out of order; his shrubbery is perpetually needing the shears; it seems almost impossible to keep the grass out of the serpentine walks; a cow gets in and upsets the vase of flowers; the hogs destroy the watermelons and the gardener runs away with the chambermaid.
Everything goes wrong and farming is a failure. It always is a failure when a man knows nothing about it; if a man can afford to make a large outlay for his own umbrella and the health of his family, let him hasten to his country purchase. But no sensible man will think to keep a business in town and make a farm financially profitable.
After the Twine Trust.
A bombshell has just been thrown into the camp of the twine trust by the well-known house of Montgomery Ward & Co., of Chicago, in the way of a starting offer to sell half a million and half a million binder twine at ten cents per lb., nearly five cents less than the trust twine can be sold for. Montgomery Ward & Co. will lose a fortune by this move, but they say that they have resolved to break the twine trust if such a thing is possible. The fact that they deal directly with the farmers, and that they number their customers by the million, makes their influence very powerful.
If they should succeed in breaking the market, the saving to the American farmers will amount to almost $5,000,000.
Undisturbed the Clover Crop.
At this season of the year we can almost see the clover grow, so rapidly are the flower terms rushing forward, and soon the fields will be brilliant with the fragrant purple blossoms, says the Breeders' Gazette. While enjoying their appearance the question presses forward as to the proper cure and storage of the crop. A few months back several articles of great importance appeared in the Gazette on the subject of spontaneous combustion in clover hay stored in barns, and, although there are two sides to the question, the preponderance of testimony is strongly in favor of those claiming that burns have been averted thereby.
Certainly no prudent farmer after reading the testimony of eye witnesses to those conflagrations and the statements of persons on the ground himself will care to incur the seeming risk. A careful examination of these cases shows that the losses have usually occurred where some external moisture in the shape of rain or heavy dew was taken up with the clover at the time of storage. There may be exceptions to this, but it seems to be the rule. If any of our readers know of cases of combustion of clover hay stored with only its own moisture we should be exceedingly glad of the reports.
It is quite certain that many farmers succeed in the practice of making good hay from clover which is taken to the mow shortly after being cut by the mower, and when it has only had time to lose a part of its moisture through wilting. If rich clover is to be harvested we certainly should prefer to have the sides of the hay mow made so tight that it would become a bill, thereby excluding the possibility of air entering from the sides to further the process of heating. Many of those who would like to have tried the experiment of storing clover before it was thoroughly held-cured have been deterred from doing so because of the great weight of the unwieldy crop, but with some of the modern hay loaders this difficulty is overcome, and loading is a comparatively easy task. As to the various rotational methods of curing clover for hay it is not our purpose to speak at this time; they are numerous, and each has its advocates.
Local conditions and personal experience largely dictate the best practice, and always which are acceptable in one locality may not find favor in others. All will agree, however, that there is a right time for cutting; if cut before this period it is almost impossible to cure clover into good hay, and that which remains after much handling and attention seems almost uncurable. On the other hand, the proper period for harvesting is brief, and is often made still shorter by bad weather. The old rule of cutting when a thresher or a third of the heads begin to turn brown probably marks the time for the beginning of the mowing as well as can be stated. In whatever way clover is handled, whether with the tedder or otherwise, care must be taken to save as many of the leaves and finer parts as possible. Under a hot sun these soon dry out and easily rattle off. It is to avoid this loss that many draw to the barn when quite damp, and others gather into large cocks for further curing. Either of these practices is usually preferable to the handling of the part-made hay in small bunches much scattered.
The worst cases of scrofula, salt rheum and other diseases of the blood are cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Great Britain's Wheat Supply.
The Glasgow Herald has published a letter on "Great Britain's Wheat Supply," probably the work of an economist, which reckons the British production of wheat at 8,500,000 quarters, while he places the required import at about eighteen million quarters. After tabulating the wheat exports and imports of the world, he calls attention to the fact that the United Kingdom requires nearly one-half of the total export, of which Russia furnishes about one-third. He argues that in case of a war between Russia and Great Britain, the former power could easily and effectively run her antagonist short of breadstuffs by simply prohibiting her own exports. In such a case, he predicts that within three days wheat would double in value, while in three months this country would be suffering from actual dearth. But it is forcibly pointed out in this letter, there are other catastrophes than war which might cause the same result or thereabouts. The harvests, for instance, of Russia and eastern Europe are more precarious than those of Great Britain and western Europe, on account probably of the more rapid and sudden changes of temperature to which they are exposed, but if such a misfortune as an entirely deficient Russian crop were to occur, it is not certain that the United States would be able to make peace the want. What, then, is to be done? The correspondent in question would have Great Britain grow twice the amount of wheat she now grows; and he holds that the government ought to facilitate the carrying over of one-half of the crop in stack to the next harvest, while retaining such control of it as to be able to order a previous distribution if it were thought necessary.
Sickness and improper action of the liver and kidneys is bad drama for the human system, which Surdock Blood Bitters remedies.
The "Weakness of Metal Ties." A Belgian official report upon metal railroad ties, as compared with wooden ones, does not speak in a wholly satisfactory manner of the former. "So far as tests in that country, which were begun in 1851," says an exchange, "have been carried out, the metal tie does not appear to be well adapted to roads over which trains are run at a high rate of speed, the chief clinical being a tendency to crack and break away from the rails. This view, it is said, is held by Belgian government officials, who have found that while there is less cost attached to the use of metallic ties, they are feasible only on lines over which trains are run at an average rate of twenty-five miles an hour, and where traffic is not too heavy. Since a sound oak tie, well coated with creosote, will last from eighteen to twenty-five years, a steel tie costing two or three times as much must last that much longer in order to be as economical."

NOTICE.
Within less than a year three different Judges have granted Injunctions protecting the well-known Yellow APOLLINARIS LABELS from infringement.
The last defendant used an oval yellow label and a yellow neck label on Mineral Water, and employed eminent Counsel who vigorously defended the suit. The Supreme Court, when granting the injunction, expressed the opinion that bottles of other Mineral Water put up with orange-colored labels may well be mistaken for Apollinaris at a short distance and without close inspection.

gcncrall/xition Is to Include the capitalist * or
Kurope as well as the money barons of Wull

In the present depreciation of silver the
delegates who will In n.Ulniml convention
assemble tomorrow only see a consplricy on
the part of the gold lenders of London nnd
Germany , aided nnd abetted by the lessor
capitalists , their vass ils on Wall street , to
rnako gold the only recognized International
coin metal of the world and subjugate the
United States to the llnanclal control of the
country from whom she wrested her polit
ical liberty yeais ago Ore it Britain.
The scenes following the Imposition of the
tax. on tea , so hotly contested and Indig
nantly denounced by the colonial fathers of
1770 , would have been n lltting parallel to
that furnished In the hotel lobbies today
The laws of supply nnd demand and the re
sults of o\cr-pioductlon found no place In
arguments , for every suggestion of this kind
was repulsed by a stirtllng array of statis
tics nnd ( Inures tending to show th.it the
closing of the mints of India , tlio death blow
of free coinage In Europe , and the demand
for thu repeal of the Shorin m bill vvuio but
parts of a grc.lt conspiracy against silver
Those who have expected the convention to

underestimated the drup reelings that actu
ate most of tlio delegates who ate to dlscu s

rcillj tlio mou impnitant work of the fteo

Tliu piosolytlngof the loadcis of labor or

CHICAGO , July .11. [ Special Telegram to
Tun HER. ] Financial nffalrs seem to have
reached the point w hero Chicago is obliged
to pretty nearly cut loose from Now York.
Fortcndajs Now York exchange has been
practically unsalable here. It has
been simply impossible to pot any currency
from Now York banks , although local banks
had It on deposit there to their credit. New-
York exchange was vcsterday nomlr.all"
quoted at $ T on the tl.COO discount , although
under normal conditions It could not fall be
low TO rents discount , which Is the shipping
rate.
This iimisu-il situation in New York ev-
chaiiRo has led to a now departure in local
banking. Chicago is to import gold direct
from I-omlon. Two banks yesterday com
pleted arrangements for shipments of Amer
ican eagles from London and at least $7" > 0- ,

First National b ink ordered from its Lon
don correspondent STiOO.OOO nnd the Hank of
NovaScotii ordered fiV,000. ) 'ibis will bo
biought straight through Now Yoik to
Chicago.
It seems piobiblo that Chicago will now
play an important pirt in the gold imports
that are expected to bo made. The for
warding of produce nnd grain has been
seriously hampetcd by the inability of
snippets to dispose of their Now York ox-
chunL'o. If the Chicago banns now buy the
drafts oil foiolgn purchases of grain nnd
ship the gold directly to this cltv the dllll-
euUv on that score will bo avoided.
"No dealing house ccrtlllcntcs have yet
boon issued in Chicago , " said Lyman J.
Gage jcstcrday. ' 'Tho authority gianted
the ox commissioner of the doming house to
issue such certificates has not yet been
taken advantage of. No ono has jot ap
plied to the committee for any certificates ,
and 1 doubt it nnj are Issued hero. "

"Tobias Castor , Lincoln , Neb. " Thcso
were the words inscribed in a plain hand
upon the register of the Cook ran hotel ,
which announced the arrival this morning of
the dcmociatlo national commltlcomau for
Nebraska. When THE Bin : eoricspondont
callcdlipon Mr. Castor this evening ho was
Boated at a table going through an enormous
'
'pile of lottcts from Nebraska democrats
who want ofllco.
"Yes , I confess , " slid Mr Cistor , in reply
to a question , "that I e uno hero to look after
some appointments. And I may add that I
am disappointed not to find Secrolary Mor
ton hero. As I passed through Chicago I
leatncd that Mr , Morton wis upon a west
ern trip , but thit he was expected to arilvo
there on that day and proceed hero at once.
llo will undoubtedly bo hero by the middle
of this week. "
"Dojou know of any appointments that
will bo made soon foj- Nebraska ! "
"Weil " replied Mr. Castor , "i spent lod.iy
nt the Postofllca department and jou may
say to THE Due leaders that there will bo
fifty less republican postm.istots of the
fourth class in Nebraska within tliu next
forty-eight hours than there nto now , that
is , there vv 111 bo that number of democrats
appointed to take the places of ns many
lopubUcans. 1 do not want to mention
names You may say also that n postmaster
for Omaha vv ill not likely bo named befoio
the middle of next winter. Postmister
Clnikson will not have served four joars
till about Junuaiy. "
No C'lmnccB In the I.nrco Oltlet.
"By tint do you mom to siy thoio will bo
no removals of postinistois at the largerof-
flcod in Isobiaskn till they have served four
'That is my understanding , " was the
prompt and positive leply.
"How about tjjo United States district at-
toiiioishlpi"
"I do not expect that place to bo filled by
a democrat till about January. "
"And the colluctorship of customs at
Omaha ? "
"Well , " sild Mr. Castor , "theio may bo n
charge before long 1 am not certain about
that place. It is my impression that n now
collector of customs vv ill bo named for Omaha
befoie many uajs "
"And the land ofllccrsi"
"Tho lopublicans who were appointed to
the now ofllces those created by tlio Heed
conpess will , it is understood , remain till
their four jeais are out. 1 o\poct changes
to bo made in the old ofllces of Alliance ,
McCook , Lincoln and North Platte for in-
st.uice , soon. 1 am going lo the Interior
dep.iitment tomoiruw to look ever the

tions The sccretaty of 'ho Interior is out
of the city nnd I do not know when ho will
act upon the locommendatlons , but I shall
submit mine this week and I hope for and ax.
pool early action
"No , I do not care to mention the names
I ; \vlll iccommend for any ofllces. It is
against my policy. The ( list appointments
which will bo made for Nebraska will bo
about twenty-five fourth class postmasters
toinoriow and ubout the same number on
Wednesday. "
Morton Will Appro\e.
Mr. Castor will rcmiin in Washington
about a week. Ho is at the suno hotel
which Scctotarv Morton makes histfhomo
and , of couisc , whatever ho may do in the
way of lecommendatlons for places
will meet the nppiov.il of the secrol.iry
of agricultuio. THE BI.R coriospoiulcnt
could not induce Mr. Castor > incnlion the
na'ncs of the prospective appointees , but it
is safe to wager joiir last dollar tint ho will
recommend James MeSh uio for the Omaha
collcclorship and then lo double the wager
that McShano will get the place. The ap
pointment is likely to be made within a
short time , just as soon as President Cleveland -
land can take up the case
When Secretary Hoko Smith returns to

KckclH on tlio .Situation.
When Comntiollcr of Currency Eckels
ted lyatithoiized the Fitst National biuk of
Kondullv Illo , Ind. , which closed on Juno 23
last , to open for business again , hoobseivcd :
"One by ono the n itlonal bulks which
ha vo closed dm ing the piescnt stress are
opening , and 1 maRc the prediction that nine
out of every ten of them will opun for busi
ness again , In some cities all of the binks
which failed to meet the demands of deposi
tois will reopen. The failure of n bank dur
ing times like these is no indication of dis
honest } and noes not necessarily mean bad
b inking methods
"Some of Ihose which have failed wore
the most successful binks in their respective
communities. The worst of the tininolal
distress Is over and soon binks will begin to
lend money If I had n largo deposit In n
national bink In which I had had confidence
when money w as plentiful and I had no other
leiison forimtitm than the general failuios
of banks , I wouldn't vvllhdiaw my deposit.
I would stand by the bank. The bankers
aio making memoranda of th ir p.uiu'kj de

HAS A VERY METALLIC RING
Silver Advocates Are Gathering at Chicago
In Large Numbers.
PREPARING FOR TODAY'S CONVENTION
Planning Up on the Money Power
Active Hostilities Once Hoped
Particular Interest to Have Someone
Agitators from Everywhere.
Chicago, July 30. There will be a declaration of war tomorrow. The fee to be outlawed will be the "money power," and this general convention is to include the capitalists of Europe as well as the money barons of Wall Street.
In the present depreciation of silver, the delegates who will in an ultimate convention assemble tomorrow only see a conspiracy on the part of the gold lenders of London and Germany, aided and abetted by the lesser capitalists, their vassals on Wall Street, to make gold the only recognized international coin metal of the world and subjugate the United States to the financial control of the country from whom she wrested her political liberty years ago. For it is Britain.
The scenes following the imposition of the tax on tea, so hotly contested and indigantly denounced by the colonial fathers of 1770, would have been a fitting parallel to that furnished in the hotel lobbies today.
The laws of supply and demand and the results of over-production found no place in arguments, for every suggestion of this kind was repulsed by a stirring array of statistics and figures tending to show that the closing of the mints of India, the death blow of free coinage in Europe, and the demand for the repeal of the Sherman bill were but parts of a great conspiracy against silver.
Those who have expected the convention to assemble at 10 tomorrow would go to pieces on the shoals of partisanship have underestimated the drugstore feelings that actuate most of the delegates set to discuss the silver issue in this assembly.
United on One Program.
Populist, greenbacker and the free silver man seem to be united on one program that is, the repeal of the Sherman purchase bill must be resisted to the last, unless there be coupled with it an act for the free coinage of silver or for a greater volume of currency. In this program are found united the Republican congressman, B. Barton of Iowa, the democratic silver dollar congressman, Winner of Ohio; the populist, Colby of Alabama, and all their respective followers and their numbers are legion.
Resolving committees are to be appointed to carry the light to Washington and state committees will be named to work up public sentiment in the various states. Then a campaign committee is to be named and this committee is likely to be entrusted with what is really the most important work of the free silver movement. The work will be second, and it is expected it will labor to enlist the assistance of the unemployed over whom, The proselyting of the leaders of labor organizations is to follow next, and the silver men expect the same lawmakers who passed the alien labor laws and the Chinese exclusion bill to hearken to the voice of labor and increase the volume of the circulating medium.
Over 1,000 delegates will assemble for deliberation tomorrow and the day following.
The headquarters of the deliberations will be in the Palmer House, once the Northern Pacific, and they are rapidly filling up. The Colorado's big delegation arrived at the Palmer today, and a goodly number from Iowa, Nevada, Montana, Alabama, Indiana, and Utah are at the Great Northern.
From the Pacific is in the City.
Among the most prominent men now in the city are ex-Senator Thomas Patterson, General Warner, Senator Lee Metzel of Montana, Senator George Shipman, Congressman Willis Sweet of Idaho, Senator William M. Stewart of Nevada, Congressman Mark Cannon of California, Senator Pierce T. Dubois of Idaho, Congressman W.W. Bowers, Colonel P.J. Himson, William Kens, A.T. Goodwin, and Soil Gaston of Alabama, Homer Tubenose of Illinois chairmen of the people's party national executive committee; Judge F. Washburn, Congressman Barton of Nevada, Governor Tool of Alabama, and ex-Governor Bout of Colorado will be among those to call the convention to order. Mayor Richard of Chicago will deliver an address of welcome. It is expected that United States Surveyor John M. Keagel of Texas will be permitted the chairmanship of the convention.
Significant) July 30, The chairmanship of the silver convention was settled last night by the selection of a dark horse candidate

who have not lugged to any extent
In the preliminary forecasts and discussions about the hotel committees yesterday, among the dozen or so
in the position of Allen W. Thurnburn of Ohio, son of ex-Senator Allen G. Thurnburn. Following yesterday General Warner sent out a private call to the leaders of the various states to meet with him in conference at the Palmer house. It was 8 o'clock
when the meeting opened in ex-Senator Tom Patterson's rooms and it was 1 o'clock before it adjourned. Among those present were Senator Stuart, Senator Henry M. Teller, Senator P. Hill of Colorado, ex-Governor Boutt of Colorado; A.S. Thurnburn, Colonel Dean of New York; ex-Congressman Regan of Texas; Governor Valley, Chairman Roll, the Alabama populists, Congressman Bateman of Idaho, and Congressman Swift of Idaho.
General Warner presided and an informal expression of opinion followed along the line that England, snuggling for the monetary supremacy of the world, had over since the Napoleonic war, pressed the gold standard upon the nations of the earth until the conflict had reduced down to the United States, and now its demands had to be checked or absolute slavery to English influence must prevail. The conference decided that no inefficient forces must be permitted in the convention by men not in harmony with free coinage at the standard of 16 to 1, and that this end must be secured by appointing a permanent chairman, and the unanimous choice fell upon Mr. Thurnburn, who was designated as "sound to the core."
As a further precaution, the conference selected a committee on credentials composed of men from the various states who are familiar with the silver element, and no one will be given a seat as a delegate who is challenging the authority of this committee. The following is the committee as suggested. Nevada, Thomas Weron, C.J. Hutchinson; Georgia, Homy Jones; Ohio, B.D. Stark; Alabama, Senator Colby; Washington, Patrick Clark; Texas, Gassett; Tennessee, J.H. McDowell; Virginia, J.L. Johnson; California, D.M. Hume; Iowa, Washington; Kansas, A.O. Shinn; Idaho, G.D. Brown; Utah, O.C. Goodwin; New York, J.P. Doon; Montana, George Toll; Arizona, A. Buck; North Carolina, J.U. Stanton, Illinois, Homy Alton and Hubbard; Massachusetts, George Washburn, Missouri, L.M. King; Maryland, U.C. Smith.
Work out a Port Hull Solution.
Nebraska, July 30. The proprietors of the Arlington San Paper company have announced that until further notice, the mills will work but fifty hours a week. The Arlington Coal and Lumber company will be closed on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
WASHINGTON, July 30. Acting Mint Treasurer Piatt, with the approval of General Jacoby of Colorado, to establish a state bullion depository and issue certificates against silver bullion deposited therein. The scheme is not in violation of the United States statutes, it is said, but is regarded at the treasury as a temporary makeshift and impractical.
CHICAGO FIANNING ATTAINS.
Unveiled Unit Point When New York Bank Note Issue Ignored.
CHICAGO, July 11. [Special Telegram to The HER.] Financial affairs seem to have reached the point where Chicago is obliged to pretty much cut loose from New York. Forwarding of produce and grain has been seriously hampered by the inability of shipments to dispose of their New York exchange. If the Chicago banks now buy the drafts on foreign purchases of grain and ship the gold directly to this city, the difficulty on that score will be avoided.
"No dealing house certificates have yet been issued in Chicago," said Lyman J. Gage yesterday. "The authority granted the exchange commissioner of the clearing house to issue such certificates has not yet been taken advantage of. No one has yet applied to the committee for any certificates, and I doubt if any are issued here."
Will continue one form department?
PALIC, ILL., July 12. This morning the savings banks of this city took advantage of their by-laws to prevent any further withdrawals or deposits, and depositors will not be allowed to withdraw larger sums, except after having given thirty or sixty days notice.
BINGHAMTON, July 12. Dingsworth's savings bank has decided to demand sixty days notice of withdrawals of funds by depositors.
NEW YORK, July 12. The savings banks of this city have decided to require from three to four months' notice from depositors wishing to withdraw. There is considerable excitement among small depositors, but the banks are generally considered strong.
Pittsburgh, July 12. The Merchants' National Bank called for ninety days notice on withdrawals of deposits today.
ALBANY, N.Y., July 12. The trustees of the Albany Savings Bank today adopted a resolution to pay depositors the amount due them on demand without notice, as the bank feels able to meet any run that could be made until the present panic is over. The trustees of nearly all the other savings banks in the city met today, and the sentiment expressed was in favor of requiring sixty days notice from the depositors. The only banks which today required such notice were the Albany City Savings institution, the Home Savings Bank, and the National Savings Bank.
CHICAGO, July 12. As a result of the big drop in the price of wheat on the Board of Trade today, the firm of Lyon & Hubbard notified its customers to protect themselves. The firm is understood to have been carrying 800,000 bushels of wheat, on which there was a loss of some $70,000, but was short about 800,000 bushels of corn, on which there was a profit of $50,000, leaving a net loss of $20,000. The firm will continue to pay in full as soon as it calls in collaterals. The senior member of the grain, J. B. Lyon, is one of the oldest and best-known members of the Board of Trade and at one time made a great start by running a corner in wheat.
LONDON, July 12. Stocks opened fairly steady, owing to the practical settlement of the Suez Canal question, but business was very light. American railroad securities were weak and irregular and Aigentines were flat. The outflow of gold to America is causing a steady state in the rate of discount in the open market, though the Bank of England is in a position to stand the export of 1,000,000 without raising the official rate. The open market today was slightly better than yesterday. The market closed near the bottom.
The majority of the mills in Chicago were closed today. This is the first suspension of these factories for many years. Eight thousand operatives are idle. The Iroquois mills stalled up again this morning, but giving employment to 1,000 hands who had been idle for two weeks.
All the remaining Amoskeag mills are certain to close down August 1st, if not before. It will be the basis, it is said, of a reduction in wages.
DULUTH, Minn., July 12. A fire is now in progress at the mining town of Virginia, on the Mesabi range, and four ring leaders are in jail. The trouble is believed to have been caused by delay in payment of wages at the Franklin mine, the property of Corrigan, Ives & Co. of Cleveland. Hardly any of the mines have been able to pay off debts in tickets. At the time of the fire, men had to be provided for by the city of Virginia, which had three months' pay due them. Details are meager.
ST. LOUIS, July 12. A. Daytons & Co., private bankers at Marion, have made an assignment to C. H. Kurt & Co. The estate is valued at $200,000. The cause was a lack of immediate cash. It is believed all will be paid in full and the bank will be open in a few days. No statement of assets and liabilities.
No further trouble expected from failures.
SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 12. The Springfield Savings Bank failed this morning. The deposits were $100,000 and the capital $30,000, and it will pay in full. The other banks are not affected and no further trouble is expected.
Milwaukee, July 12. The First National Bank failed this morning, owing to a steady drawing on deposits. The reasons July 11 were financial difficulties & losses are in progress at other banks too.
World's Fair hotel fails.
Chicago, July 12. The Chicago Times reports that two big shipping companies, proprietors of two Western Pacific hotels, have confessed judgment for $200,000. The assets are estimated at $600,000 and the liabilities at $700,000.
PORTLAND, Ore., July 12. The First National Bank of Portland has failed, the officers say the suspension is temporary. The resources July 11 were $150,000, and in the hunt for a savior.
AKRON, O., July 12. W. A. Lynch has been appointed receiver of the Pittsburgh, Akron and Western railroad. The road has a capital stock of $8,000,000.
PHILADELPHIA, July 12. The Pendleton Savings Bank has temporarily suspended, assets $600,000; liabilities $1,300,000.
New York, July 12. The run on the Howard institution, which was begun on Saturday, was continued today.
Tobias Castor's Predictions
He Declares that Nebraska Democrats Are to Have Satisfaction.
Several Appointments to Be Made Soon
Forty-fourth Congress Republican Committee to meet with the Not Forty-eight House Charter, May Serve Their Full Terms,
WASHINGTON BUREAU of THE SEC.
By Tobias Castor, Lincoln, Neb. "These were the words inscribed in a plain hand upon the register of the Cook Hotel, which announced the arrival this morning of the democratic national committee man for Nebraska. When THE Button corresponded called upon Mr. Castor this evening, he was seated at a table going through an enormous pile of letters from Nebraska democrats who want office."
Yes, I confess, slid Mr. Castor, in reply to a question, "that I am here to look after some appointments. And I may add that I am disappointed not to find Secretary Morton here. As I passed through Chicago, I learned that Mr. Morton was upon a western trip, but that he was expected to arrive there on that day and proceed here at once. He will undoubtedly be here by the middle of this week."
"Do you know of any appointments that will be made soon for Nebraska?"
"Well," replied Mr. Castor, "I spent today at the Post Office department and you may say to the Due leaders that there will be fifty less Republican postmasters of the fourth class in Nebraska within the next forty-eight hours than there are now, that is, there will be that number of Democrats appointed to take the places of as many Republicans. I do not want to mention names. You may say also that a postmaster for Omaha will not likely be named before the middle of next winter. Postmaster Clarkson will not have served four years till about June."
"No changes in the Land Office."
"By that, do you mean there will be no removals of postmasters at the larger cities in Nebraska till they have served four years?"
"That is my understanding," was the prompt and positive reply.
"How about the United States district attorneyship?"
"I do not expect that place to be filled by a Democrat till about January."
"And the collectorship of customs at Omaha?"
"Well," said Mr. Castor, "there may be a change before long, I am not certain about that place. It is my impression that a new collector of customs will be named for Omaha before many days."
"And the land officers?"
"The Republicans who were appointed to the new offices those created by the Read congress will, it is understood, remain till their four years are out. I expect changes to be made in the old offices of Alliance, McCook, Lincoln and North Platte for instance, soon. I am going to the Interior department tomorrow to look over the papers and make some recommendations. The secretary of the Interior is out of the city and I do not know when he will act upon the recommendations, but I shall submit mine this week and I hope for and expect early action."
"No, I do not care to mention the names I will recommend for any of the offices. It is against my policy. The next appointments which will be made for Nebraska will be about twenty-five fourth class postmasters tomorrow and about the same number on Wednesday."
Mr. Castor will remain in Washington about a week. He is at the same hotel which Secretary Morton makes his home, and, of course, whatever he may do in the way of recommendations for places will meet the approval of the secretary of agriculture. The BLR correspondent could not induce Mr. Castor to mention the names of the prospective appointees, but it is safe to wager your last dollar that he will recommend James McShane for the Omaha collectorship and then to double the wager that McShane will get the place. The appointment is likely to be made within a short time, just as soon as President Cleveland can take up the case.
When Secretary Hoke Smith returns to the city, he will take up the land offices at the four cities named in Nebraska and act upon them. It seems to be settled that the district attorneyship will remain open till near the end of the year. Mr. Castor has recently returned from a political trip through Montana and other states and is looking as hearty as he did when he was last in Washington in April.
Eckert on the Situation.
When Comptroller of Currency Eckert recently authorized the First National Bank of Kendallville, Ind., which closed on June 23 last, to open for business again, he observed:
"One by one, the national banks which have closed during the present stress are opening, and I make the prediction that nine out of every ten of them will open for business again. In some cities, all of the banks which failed to meet the demands of depositors will reopen. The failure of a bank during times like these is no indication of dishonesty and does not necessarily mean bad banking methods.
"Some of those which have failed were the most successful banks in their respective communities. The worst of the financial distress is over and soon banks will begin to lend money. If I had a large deposit in a national bank in which I had had confidence when money was plentiful and I had no other reason for withdrawing my deposit than the general failures of banks, I wouldn't withdraw my deposit. I would stand by the bank. The bankers are making memoranda of their promissory depositors, and I fancy they will remember in the future those who mistrusted them during those times."
Western Postmasters Appointed.
Postmasters were appointed today as follows:
Iowa: Akron, Plymouth county, B.F. Whitelock, vice A.W. Parsons, resigned; Clinton, Clinton county, L.B. Harrington, vice U.C. Fields, removed; Monroe, Fremont county, J.C. Harington, vice John Metcalf, resigned; Norwalk, Warren county, I.A. Lewis, vice Daniel Stoltz, removed.

South Dakota: Enlistment and increase John S. Green Original widows, etc. Minors of Charles J. Klingman.
All of the cabinet officers except Secretary Carlisle are out of Washington now, and those absent are expected to remain away till about the close of the week. All political and important official business about the department is about at a standstill. This is the first opportunity afforded the cabinet officers to get a field residence.
A.M. Rodgers of Milford, la., C.O. Nutting of Iowa City and H.C. Decker of Rapid City are at the St. James.
The acting secretary of the interior today overruled the motion for review of the commissioners' decision in the homestead case of William H. Laboe against James Held from Rapid City, S.D., and the entry of the lands canceled. He dismissed the motion for review of the decision in the case of Eliza Semple against Andrew J. Boyd from Rapid City and the decision stands against Boyd.
The secretary has denied the motion for review in the desert land case of Charles T. Rose against C.G. Langerdorf from Salt Lake City.
Commissioner Lochren appointed the following medical pension examiners today for McGee, la.: Drs. H.J. Scrimger, J.H. Thornton, and M.U. Brown. P.S.H. Clark IS IN MILIARDS.
Secretary Carlisle took not this text: "Metallurgy on geography."
WASHINGTON, July St. Secretary Carlisle has taken a hand in the Chinese situation at New York, which has been the occasion of so much friction recently between treasury agents and Collector Hendricks. Several letters have passed on the subject and Secretary Carlisle brings the matter to a close in a letter to Collector Hendricks, in which he says:
The department cannot concur in your view that the authorized practice, discontinued by order of the 13th Instant, or otherwise questioning the sincerity of the oath of the Chinese consul at New York by the denial and denial of the collector. Should the resignation be accepted, evidence is before the department in one form or another that a Chinese person represented himself to be a member of a line of Chinese merchants in New York and was so certified by the Chinese consul at New York, which certification was duly authenticated by the soil of the consul, house and the signature of one of your deputies, which, in point of fact, the Chinese person who presented himself at the custom house was another and entirely different person from the one named in the certificate. This man applied for admission at one or the other of the custom houses upon the certificate mentioned, which, according to your theory, would be conclusive evidence of his right to enter, inasmuch as the photograph was that of the person who presented himself, and it was not that of the person named in the certificate, who was a real person-resident, formerly residing in New York and who, as such, has interests in China. The department sees no good reason for the continuation in force of a practice by your office which in essence involves only serves as an aid to these often illicit means in allowing a certain fact that it many Chinese persons-desiring to come into the country within the past July under authority of merchants, students, actors, other persons of the aforementioned class, aided in might custom by customs officers whom either corrupt or indifferent to their duty in the premises that it is my duty, to employ all the means under my control to insure the law is speedily executed in faith, and to that end I shall expect the cordial cooperation of all officers of the customs.
For the month of July, 1 have purchased only a total of 1,500,000 ounces of silver. The total purchase for the month was 25,000,000 ounces, leaving a shortage of 2,510,000 ounces. The amount purchased today was 210,000 ounces at the counter figure of $0.703 per ounce. The two populist members of Congress from Colorado, Messrs. Pence and Jell, were at the treasury today and had an interview with Secretary Carlisle and Acting Mint Director Proctor. They were in Dr. Proctor's room at the time he rejected the offers and made the counter offer of 70c per ounce. Both of them were much concerned about what they claimed was a violation of the department to depress the price of silver in the markets of the world. The men indicated a purpose to precipitate a silver discussion on the first working day of the extra session of Congress by a resolution of inquiry as to whether or not the secretary of the treasury has not exceeded his authority in refusing to purchase 4,500,000 ounces of silver in July, as provided by the Sherman law.
WASHINGTON, July 31. The issue of standard silver dollars from the mints and treasury office during the week ended July 29 was $5,803,625; for the corresponding period of last year, $4,100,000. The shipment of fractional silver coin from the 1st to the 16th inst., amounted to 7,953. The First National Bank of Rapid City, Sioux Empire, which suspended payments June 26, has been permitted to reopen its doors for business.
The total number of fourth-class postmasters appointed today was 18, of which 34 were to fill vacancies caused by resignations and deaths.
An order was issued at the Navy department today directing Commander H. E. Impcy to proceed to the Asiatic station to command the Money, relieving Commander Barber. Commander Barber is home and authorized to delay one year his trip. The censorship of telegrams sent from St. Petersburg to the United States has been removed. Information to this effect has been received at the State department from Minister Conger, who is at St. Petersburg, the capital of Russia. It is understood that the censorship did not apply to messages in cipher sent by foreign representatives to their home governments, but only to copies of messages of a private character.

WASHINGTON, July 31. The visit to Washington of Thomas S. Shirley of Louisville on behalf of the western banks who are carrying loans upon whisky in bond was not successful. Mr. Shirley is a lawyer, and he represents in this matter banks in Louisville, Cincinnati, Chicago, and Pittsburgh. He came to supplement the efforts of the committee of distillers who pleaded with Secretary Carlisle for an extension of bank notes for a short period, but failed to convince the secretary that he could grant the requested relief. Mr. Shirley has gone to New York to try to raise the amount of money necessary to follow the distillers and the banks. The whisky upon which tax will be due in a few days is that which went into bond in 1887, and a large sum of money will be necessary to recover it.

DES MOINES, July 31. [Special Telegram to THE BEE] Congressman Hull of this city met with an accident this morning that will likely lay him up for several weeks and prevent his attendance on the special session of Congress. He was driving from Crocker station, about nine miles north of the city, to his farm near by, when the horses became frightened, turned sharply, upset the buggy, and threw Mr. Hull out onto his head and shoulders, breaking the collarbone and inflicting other painful but not serious injuries.

PAN-AM v, Colombia (via Calvoston, Tex), July 31 [By Mexican Cable to the New-York Herald Special to The New York Herald]: Advices received by mail from Venezuela include the report that fresh trouble is miscellany in Los Andes. Partisans of Aragua and Barinas are stirring up the people and arousing discontent. They have issued a manifesto from Valores which repudiates General Crespo's election as president and denounces the so-called "centrist" constitution adopted by the constituent assembly, which is alleged to have been filled up of Crespo's creatures.
The manifesto urges the opposition to unite, take up arms, and proclaim their support of the old Falcon constitution, which guarantees the rights of states. Minister of War Guorra has ordered General Fernando's division to march from Maracaibo to suppress the conspirators.
General Aragua, leader of the attempted uprising in Cojedes, has been captured and is now in prison in Valencia.
Foreces Cordova, the new provisionally president of the state of Falcon, is causing serious trouble in Maracaibo. As soon as he had been inaugurated, he fired all the Crespistas from office in the state and issued all places with Guayana ministers or former followers of Andrez and Urquina. Protests have been made by the government of the state of Bolivar against the landing in Venezuela of vagabonds from the British colonies, whose passage has been paid in order to get rid of them.

VILLAVISO, Chile (via Galveston, Tex), July 31 [By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to The New York Herald]: News received from Argentina tonight shows that the revolution of extremists and radicals has extended to all parts of the provinces of Buenos Aires and Santa Fe. It is expected that a state of siege will be declared in the city of Buenos Aires and that martial law will be declared in all parts of the provinces where the revolutionists have made demonstrations. The senate has been called to meet and consider the situation. Accurate news is difficult to obtain, as telegraph lines have been cut in many places and railroads have been torn up to prevent the intervention of state troops.
I have learned on good authority that the revolt is not directed against the federal government. This contradicts the statement I cabled the Herald last night. The uprising is against the state governments of Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, and San Luis and was caused by the dissatisfaction aroused by the financial and other policies of the governments of those provinces. The current situation in Argentina is gloomy, however, and a financial crisis is expected.
The steamer Holliswood has reached Valparaiso. All masts were bent during a storm.
SAN JUAN DE NICARAGUA, Nicaragua (via Galveston, Tex), July 31 [By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to The New York Herald]: News has been received that a truce has been signed by representatives of the Guayana government and the Leon revolutionists. This was in accordance with the proposal made by the provisional president, Guayana. The terms of the treaty have not been stated, but it is known that hostilities have ceased.
London: More News from Peru:
In the House of Commons tonight, Wharton, conservative, asked about last Thursday's row, replying to which Gladstone said it would doubtless be for general convenience and interest of good order if an arrangement could be arrived at by means of which supporters of the government and opposition might sit on opposite sides of the house.
Hunter, liberal, asked if the assaults committed Thursday evening were to be allowed to pass without punishment being inflicted upon the offenders, also what action would be taken if he moved for a committee to investigate.
Gladstone said he would answer tomorrow. Mr. Fisher, conservative, who started the fist fight, rose and expressed deep regret for the part he took in the affray. He thought he had intended to assault him or Carson.
Gladstone emphatically denied any intention to assault anyone and deeply regretted being concerned in the affair.
Gladstone said the explanations were satisfactory, and he hoped that the matter would be allowed to drop.
Balfour and McCaiglby also expressed regret, but McCaiglby protested against the notion to allow the Omaha-Council Bluffs railroad to make the same rates from Omaha to points in Iowa on all classes and commodities as are now established from Council Bluffs to points in Iowa.
The Rock Island claims that there are eighteen agricultural implement firms on the tracks of the association roads at Council Bluffs, most of whom had been induced to locate there on the assurance that no unjust discrimination would be practiced against them in the distribution of their special commodities. For years they had been placed on a parity with Omaha in the matter of rates on their shipments to the territories west of the Missouri river. This had not been accomplished by reducing the rates from Council Bluffs to the Omaha points, but was effected by advancing the Omaha rates to an equality with those from Council Bluffs.
If Council Bluffs was to be maintained on an equality with Omaha in the matter of shipments to Nebraska and west, then Omaha should be given equal treatment with Council Bluffs in the case of shipments to points in Iowa. The meeting will be held in the Bookery August 3.
Croat Crowd at the World's Fair on August 1. The weather is fine and cool, and there is a large attendance at the World's fair today. A large delegation of mechanical engineers visited the grounds and were shown the wonders of engineering skill in the White City. August 13 will be the opening day. Large attendances are expected from Omaha and other cities. There will be a big parade and an exposition by Lieutenant Governor Louis of Wisconsin.
When the mayor of Chicago came up to lay before the national commission, Mr. Button of New York is to be chosen to the list proposed for the department of fine arts. All the men mentioned were from New York but he wanted to know why New York got such a long overrepresentation. He had been told that he had been selected by a man sent from New York who had no connection with either the national commission or the department of awards. His remarks resulted in an lively argument. After the hubbub had lasted nearly an hour, it was developed that the mines had already been concluded in the previous session.
Commissioner Nichols of Iowa offered a resolution to request the local delegates at the exposition to reduce the price of admission to the fair on Sundays to 25 cents and for children to 15 cents. The resolution was lost.
The resolution was offered that when a recess was taken at the close of today's session, it be until 12 o'clock Wednesday, so that the members might attend the silver convention. The resolution was amended by striking out the words, "to attend the silver convention," and adopted.
The grand alliance at the World's fair for the past three months numbers 7,000,000 persons.
The opening of the World's fair Scottish assembly today was inaugurated by a grand parade of all the societies in the city, local and visiting. After the procession, the high modal went to the South Side base ball park, where a program of athletic sports was carried out.
The general session of the engineers' congress was held in the Art institute this morning. About 100 members of the procession were present. Charles C. Bonner, president of the World's congress, made the opening address. After addresses of welcome and responses, the general session then dissolved and the various divisions into which the congress is divided proceeded to organize in the difficult tasks assigned to them as follows: Civil engineering, mechanical engineering, mining engineering, electronics education and mining, metallurgical engineering, and naval engineering.
All the divisions were well attended and at no time did the discussion flag. Among the prominent speakers who will be present during the week are H.W. White, architect of the Administration building at Jackson Park, Robert Mitchell of London, and presidential candidates from all the great English and German works.
On July 31, in Yankton, S.D., Special Telegram to The Bismarck Herald, H.W. White, the well-known inventor of this city, was married six years ago to Miss G. Wheeler. A few years later, Mrs. White went east, and shortly thereafter Mr. White received a divorce from her. In May last, White went to the World's fair with an individual exhibit consisting of an invention of his own, and this exhibit attracted wide attention in the Liberal Arts building. In June, Mr. White was fitted with a vent, and his divorced wife went from her home in Ohio to Chicago and then back to Yankton. They became husband and wife again, and two weeks ago were in town for the second time. They now live at home in Yankton. She is White's fourth wife, and his been three times a bride.

Dr. H.H. Dickinson, in Sioux City, S.D., July 31 -Special Telegram to The Bismarck Herald. The contract for the construction of Scholastic hall, which Mr. Pearson the Chicago philanthropist, is to be located at Yankton city, has been awarded to G. Morten, who gives a bond to complete his construction by December. This will be the most complete educational building in South Dakota.
Among the rumors in the city, it is rumored that the fire which resulted so disastrously in human life, was of incendiary origin. Thorough investigations are being made to cover up wholesale theft of goods from the warehouse. The story goes that for some weeks previous to the fire, the big warehouse was looted at night by a ring, composed of certain crooks on the outside and certain parties on the inside. On one occasion, it is said, a watering call was loaded with the barrels of wine and carried away.
Butler County Tribune, July 31 -Special to The Bismarck Herald. County warrants which have been properly registered are worth in cash ninety-seven cents on the dollar. Brokers are attempting to buy them for less but there is no necessity of accepting a lower figure.
The Dakota County Press Association, consisting of newspapers outside of Aberdeen, is engaged in a laudable effort to keep the county people informed as to the character and abilities of the different candidates this fall by publishing portraits and short sketches. The country papers of this county are at present leading the city papers in the matter of enterprise.
The investigation into the cause of death of Mrs. S. Lincoln of Sioux City, ordered by her son, Mr. C.K. Lincoln of this city, is being watched with great interest by many people who know the circumstances surrounding her death.
TRAMPS ENJOYING A FEAST
Denver Unable to Make a Distinction in Distributing Food.
WILL CLOSE THE CAMP THURSDAY
Trojan's Horn Hunt From All Parts of the Country to Colorados' Upshot to Undisturbed Profit
Alone in July -Special Telegram to The Bismarck Herald. In some respects this has been one of the liveliest days that Denver has experienced, as a portion of the tramps have been constantly on the move since early morning. Those who were the most active were the stranded comers and peers who went down with the fall of silver and the tramps who have gathered to partake of the free food which is served at Iver (Front Park).
Early this morning, now faces began to appear at the office of the executive departments, and before nightfall more than 550 new men had registered and been assigned to tents and estimating that one-half the number came from the mountains and that the balance came from the east, north and south. Soon after the serving of breakfast, Major Van Horn visited the "White City," and addressing the men around him, in a short speech informed them that employment could be found for fifty in cutting woods, clearing the alleys and removing dead trees in the suburbs. "Parson" Uzzell, who has been one of the stations props of the free food shelter, placed himself at the head of 800 who started up town.
Not Anxious to Wait.
The line marched in solidarity until it reached the business portion, when it broke ranks, most of the members seeking saloons and dry goods boxes on the shady side of the street, so that when the "reason" reached the city hall where the assignments were to be given out, the vast majority had dwindled away until there only remained fifteen individuals who were willing to earn their daily bread by the sweat of their brow, though when the dinner hour rang the entire command was called in to partake of the generous portions served at the camp.
The abandonment of this resource, which has now become a favorite place for bums and hoboes, is a forgotten conclusion, and when the sun loses its moody in on Thursday it will be no more that the officials of the Colorado State guilds, who are on duty, do not take kindly to the idea of giving the workers of picking soldiers and guarding the life and limb of the throng who slumber will in the tents, is undoing an appeal on the part of Adjutant Tabernacle, who in an interview this morning said "There is no question that the existence of this camp impacts hoboes and other elements of the idle population, just having once established the camp and the news having given particular notice to it, it seems a pity that it should be suddenly cut off now that it is really forming and after inviting into this city probably 2,500 or 1,500 men, who will enfold themselves therein tonight without food, not dispersed it is a grave consideration, whether or not the sudden cessation of that amenity is not going to precipitate the very evils they have been struggling to avoid.
Not Content to Meet.
The missed meeting which was called for the purpose of protesting against shutting down on the furnishing of food and lodging did not materialize, though two or three times during the day the men made an attempt to gather for that purpose but each time they were scattered and driven to their tents or off the grounds at the point of the bayonet.
The major received a communication from the governor with reference to the demand of the Union Pacific officials for the reservation of its property. The governor said that the preservation of the peace in Denver belonged particularly to the city authorities, and concluded as follows "Away that at this particular time there is some clanger of public violence I have ordered the city police to be garnished and the national guards of the city to be on call of the governor, which will be principally issued whenever the power of the city and county to maintain order is exhausted and proves insufficient" the reply the mayor said that if he did not believe that the police were thoroughly prepared to afford the public command the protection it was legally entitled to, he would unhesitatingly enforce section 7, article III, of the charter. This section of the new charter leads as follows:
"Section 1 The mayor is hereby empowered to call upon every able-bodied inhabitant of the city, over the age of 18 years, to aid in enforcing the laws and ordinances, especially said provision and explained in the cases and in preserving the peace and safety of the city. Any able-bodied inhabitant of the city over the age of 18 years, who shall be called upon by the mayor or for any of the said purposes, and who shall refuse or willfully neglect to obey such call or order shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined not less than $5 nor more than $100."
In view of the breaking up of the camp and the possibility of trouble, Chief Hopkins of the city detective force issued the following notice to the mayor of incorporated towns and the constables of incorporated towns within a radius of twenty miles of this city.
"You are invited to meet at my office, city hall, Wednesday, August 24, at 1:00 pm to form a committee for the repression of crime, disorder, and lawlessness, especially in the detection of criminals and in becoming acquainted with each other. You, all and each one, are exposed to danger with the interests you are subject to guide from the army of bums making their way to Denver through; the suburbs in towns."
Prepared for an emergency, at roll call tonight the chief of police instructed all of the members of the force to report to the city hall opening until further notice, and to remain there during the night. The members of the night force will also remain there during the day, having been provided with their accommodations. All of the Colorado guards of the First Regiment who are not on duty have been ordered to the armory and instructed to be ready to fall in at the first tap of the drum.
The movement of shipping men out was continued today and the exodus was much greater than any preceding day since the establishment of the work, 100 following the Boulder and forty over the Rock Island, all bound to Omaha tonight. 150 were sent to Kansas City over the Santa Fe. The populaces and managers of the relief camp called on the Secretary of War and asked him to take a car load over the Union Pacific, but he absolutely refused, having that he would not transport a lot of paupers and dump them upon cities that were outside of the United States, maintaining that such a movement was an injustice to the neighboring states and that it was in direct violation of the United States emigration laws. He said, however, that if the men had money to pay regular fares they would be called to any point on the line that they desired to reach, but under no other circumstances would one of them be called a mile.

'Iho currency movement was again heavy
.octay , the shipments out of town being esti-
imtod at from $1.750,000 to ? 2,000,000. The
lonund was from Boston and other Now
Onglnnd points , where the need of funds
seems to bo pressing. The bulk of the ship-
nents consisted of coin. From the sub-
treasury nlono $2,001,000 in silver dollars was *
sent by express to the country banks at the
request , of their New York correspondents.
There is a growing disposition among'Now
York bankers to take seine action looking to
n stoppage of the drain. At considerable in
convenience to themselves they have taken
out of the clearing house loan cortillcatcs
ind sent them to their recognized corre
spondents , some of the money being hoardcc
or lent at high rates of Interest nt the ox <
| ) Cii30 of Now York. In consequence , acconv
modatlon was given to the country banks
much less freely today than heretofore.
The executions ever the counter wcro a bout
$100.000 and about $2.10,000vero paid out in
jhecks. Most of this was in coin. From San
Francisco $50,000 was received by tolograplr
Clearing Jiouso loan curtillcatos to tlio
amount of $3'J50,000 were talcen out. Most
of these , it was thought , wcro for use in
facilitating gold imports , which are expected
to roach largo proportions within the next
two weeks. 'The total outstanding issue of
certillcatos hns now reached $ 'J7l > T5OCiO.
This is tlio largest amount ever put into cir

WUonnln I.nlmrern I'rotott Acntnst the
Ktnplojriuimt of ( Nonunion Men ,
Asm.AMi. Wls. , July 31. A crisis ha boon
reached In the lumber shovors' strlko this
mornlne. The strikers openly defied the
olllcors of the city and county , closing with
.hem In a hand-to-hand battle , In which
blood was shed freely.
The Shores Lumber company sent word to
Mayor O'Kcofo that it would commence
oading its boats at noon with nonunion
aborcrs nnd asked for protection. The
mayor sent Chief of Police Schwartz nnd
some oftlccrs to the docks , where they were
nlned by Sheriff O'Brien and deputies.
I'tioy took n stand on the tramway of tno
dock. Work had hardly commenced on iho
dock when a great mob of strikers swarmed
down ever the dock and tramway. The
Foremost of them were forcibly handcuffed
by the odlcors and others wcro arrested ,
who were afterwards rescued from the
police by their followers. A desperate hand-
to-hand contest followjed , in which revolvers
were nourished and sovorarnhots were fired.
The oftlcers wcro nearly nil bruised with
clubs and stones.
The advance on the tramway was finally
chocked , but the strikers then swuntr down
underneath the tramway and made for the
boats , reaching them ahead of the olllcors.
i'horo an awful scene of brutality was en
acted by the violent mob. Nonunion men
who wcro loading the boats wcro struck
down with clubs and terribly beaten ns
they Hod , panic-stricken , followed by thi >
strikers , They were met by the oftlcors ,
who protected them from further violence ,
forty of the ringleaders among the strikers
have been arrested.
E. A. Shores says ho will sue for damages ,
is ho hns lone complained that violence was
imminent. Mayor O'Kcofo's blood Is up.
Ho says the presidents of the lumber
shovors had informed him that no violence
would bo committed. Ho now swears that
the city will protect the nonunion laborers
at any cost.
The mob was composed not only of lumber
shovers , but of coal heavers , ere punchers
and all classes of dock laborers. The mon
have become so Intimidated ttiat It is almost
impossible to got thorn started nt work
again. Mayor O'Keofo is now dolmr his
best to got them to return to work whore ,
ho says , they will bo protected If ho has to
raise an army to do It.

' I'roinpteil by Dniponilonry.
AXTIOO , Wis. , July 31. William None-
niaeher , n farmer living nine miles south of
hero murdered his wife and three children
on Saturday night nnd then made an un-
succcssfulvattompt on his own life. The
deed was not discovered until Sunday after
noon at n o'clock , but the news reached hero
this morning. At the inquest Nonomauhcr
made a full confession. Ho said the crops
had failed and ho was nfraid of starv
ing. His parents were in Quebec ,
where they had couio all the way from
Germany and wanted money , and hu had
none to send thorn. Ho had intended to kill
his family Friday night , but changed his
plan t ) Saturday. After the family was
asleep ho wont out and got an ax and re
turned to do the deed. Ho said ho killed his
wife first by three swinging blows on the
loft temple. Ilo then went into the nQXt
room and killed Joseph , 0 J25fS old"and
Willie , 4 years old. HjQ struck both boys on
the heatt . ' ,
twIc&-'ifuYurninj to the room
w'en ' } > hl5.4T liiy , ho picked , up hisyear-
, ii/\by , held her in ono arm and struck
ifer on top of tno head. Ho then
went to the barn , climbed on the roof and
jumped twenty foot to the lloor oftho pig
sty , sustaining injuries to the splno and par
alyzing his lower extremities. Sunday
afternoon Nonomachor's brother's Uttlo
children went over and saw the boys all
bloody on the bed ana ran homo and told
tholr father , who summoned the coroner.
Today the Jury returned a verdict that the
wlfo and children came to tholr , deaths by
an ax in the .hands of William Nonemachor ,
in accordance with his confession.
A visit to the scene of the murder dis
closed a horrible sight. The mother lay on
her left sldo with a gaping wound in the
temple. The baby was in a cradle beside
the bed. The boys were in the bed in the
next room in a pool of blood. The father ,
as hu lay on the lloor of the kitchen para
lyzed , but conscious , without the least sign
of sorrow or regret , talked ns calmly about
the murder as ho would about killing a pig.
After the Inquest the murderer was brought
to town and placed in jail , but may not live
to bo tried. Ho was always kind to his
family and a good citizen , but easily gave
way to despondency.

LONDON , July ni. 'rho regatta of the
Koyal London Yacht club 'took place off
Cowcs , Isle of Wight. The week never
opened with greater eclat and a regatta
never cxcitoil moro lively Interest. The
Solent never before was so crowded
with yachts and launches. The presence
of the Gorman Imperial yacht Hohcnzollcn ,
the United States cruiser Chicago , the Gor
man training ships Stoln and Gnclse-
nau , the British battleship- Neptune
and other vessels of the Kng-
llsh uavy and the International
yacht Victoria , all decorated with flags from
stem to stern , lent a charming brilliancy to
the scone. The bright suushluo and a blue
sky supplied everything needed to complete
the yachtsmen's paradise , The presence of
so many royalties , whom the recently
wedded duke and duchess of York Jolncd
(
during the day , raised society people to the
seventh heaven. Every suitable point
ashore and everything that could float \as
crowded with interested spectators , the
ladles vicing with one another In the brlRht-
ness and novelty of their costumes.
The Interest of most of the spectators
centered chiefly in the Gorman emperor ,
vrhilo the yachtsmen's Interest centered in
the respective performances of the Ameri
can yacht Nav.ihoo and the English
Valkyrie. The former , being still unrated ,
was Jokingly called a "dark horso. "
Vnclitu Hint Stnrtoil.
The boats that took nart in the race were :
Royal Phclps Carroll's Navahoe , Lord
Dunravon's Valkyrie , J. Lason's Ivorna , the
prince of Wales' Britannia , A. B. Clark's
Santa Anita and P. Donald's Caluns.
They made a Hying start. The
Valkyrie , carrying Lord Dunravon and
commanded by the veteran Cranflcld ,
hit the line first , Just as the gun was llrcd at
10 o'clock. Then followed in the order In
which they are named , the Ivorna , the Brit
being centered in the Valkyrie. There was
a nntur.il exultation over the Navahoo's
rather bad start , which , however , gave vray
to somewhat gloomy foreboding when , on
reaching the lightship , the American boat
was seen to bo fast closing up on the Val
kyrie. Experts gazed at the Navahoe with
astonishment and remarked : ' 'Sho must bo
a ripper. " Old salts expressed surprise on
noticing that the NayaHoo had her main sail
stiffened with wooden battens an artlllco
not infrequent with smallcraft , , but unknown
on the Solent , with largo , crack yachts.
Navnlioii Won the , Vlrit lloiiml.
All the racers sot thole spinnakers soon
after the starting. They run thence to tno
lightship. There tbo'Navahoo showed hot
mottle , and before rounding thfl' "LeopTiuoy
she was llrst.JJoy&rthcfess she did not ap
pear 5-stiff as the English vessels. When
ho yachts reappeared in eight at Cowes at
ho end of the first round , the people of the
Valkyrie and Navahqo engaged fn a nock
and nock struggle , exciting surprise. The
first round was watched with intense intor-
ist. The Navahoo finished first.
In running for the Warpy lightship the ,
_ ocoud time , the Britannia and Valkyrie
[ row upon the Navahoo. Soon after round-
ng 'tho lightship , 'the Britannia took first
ilaco and Valkyrlb1 secdnd , leaving the
> f a yahoo in third'placo. Tho'yachts main-
aincd this order to the ond.Tvltording a race
if great , though hardly'exclting , interest.
'llrltannla Won the Rnoe.
The victorious Britannia finished three
cconds ahead of the Valkyrie and one min
ute and twenty-six seconds uhoad of the
Navahoo. She was greeted with cheering ,
the firing of guns , the blowing
of whistles , etc. The Santa Anita
came fourth nnd the Culuns fifth.
I'ho Iverna gave up before the
inish. Theyllmo of the first three yachts is
as follows : Britannia , three hours forty-
six minutes sixteen seconds ; Valkyrie ,
three hours forty-seven minutes nineteen
seconds ; Navahoo , three hours forty-seven
ninutes forty-two seconds.
The wind blowing duripg the day Just en
abled the racing float to carry Jackyard top
sails all round the course. The Navahoo
was tried on all points of sailing and she
came out of the trial in a satisfactory man
ner for a first performance. It is evident
that the Britannia and the Valkyrie will
have their bauds full every time they moot the
Yankee if she can bo improved in the slight
est degree. The Navahoo was the only ono
of the yachts steered with a wheel , which
1.1 held to effect speed dlsadvanlageously in
the running. No doubt the Navahoo , when
measured , -will bo the largest and will have
to give the others tlino.

It was nearly 11 o'Moclf when time was
called. The first tworrouatls were good ex
hibitions of cautious sparring , Gruon being
very shifty. In the thtril'round ho started
rushing tactics , laYidliife on Smith's
forehead , but Paddy tfb'turnod a hard
ono on thu neck , itlmouhini : Green to
the ropes. Green tlojti again , landing
on Smith's head , und'Jjust ' at this Juncture
the electric lights went'1 out and the referee
parted the men.
After a delay of over half an hour , oil
lamps wcro brought Into uso. The men
came up fresh for the fourth round , which
was another exhibition of cautious sparring.
Toward Its close Smith used his elbow on
Croon's nock , and loud cries of fuul were
hoard. Both lauded heavily Just as the gong
sounded. ,
In the fifth Smith rushed Green around
the ring , but suddenly Green landed his loft
with good effect. Smith did some dirty In
fighting in a clinch nnd the referee warned

neck , knocking Smith to the ropes ,
In the ninth Ur n landed in Smith's left
lye , raisin ? a lump ; then an itpporout , when

seemed weak' Smith butted him and li
warned by the roforeo.
In the tenth and eleventh Smith seemed
lo term In pel to Innd n knockout blow , but hU
swings all fall short. Given lands several
times , but his blows lack force.
In the twelfth , after hard Infighting ,
Green landed heavily on Smith's neck , stag
gering him. In the thirteenth and four-
Loenth there was considerable hot inllghtlng.
liut Green's blows did not seem to count and
Smith had the best of It. In the llftennlh ,
aftor4'shftrp Infighting , Smith knocked Groou

counted out , but Smith knocked him down
rtvo times in succession , Grocn finally clinchIng -
Ing to avoid punlshtnont. This was the hottest -

CHICAGO , July 31. President J. W. Koin-
iart of the Santa Fo arrived in Chicago
today from the cast. In speaking of the
goucral railroad situation ho said : "Yes , it
s true that traftlc has fallen off very much
nlcly , but the men in whoso hands the
nnnagumont of the great railroad systems of
the country is , foresaw that many months
igo nnd began to prepare for it
thon. The reduction in expenses in
all directions lists kept pace with
the reduction of traftlo nnd while

rross c-r.nilni'a'irir.j'have largely
n many eases , it will bo found when the
Innl settling comes that the not earnings on
nest of the roads are as largo as they over
lave been. I am decidedly not of the
opinion that there is nny foundation in fact
'or the many rumors that have boon circu-
atod to the elTcot that u general passing of
dividends is to bo expected. As to how
those rumors have been started no respon
sible man would have the courage to say ,
unless ho Is thoroughly familiar with the
real situation in nil Us details , but
they' have probably boon caused by , ,
irresponsible parties , who have sold
other people's property and want
to buy it back nt a lower price than they
paid for it. They have boon started uy moil
who ought to bo in the penitentiary. Oh ,
yes , I im very well aware that the Santa Fo
will follow the Erie into the hands of a re
ceiver , ns reported , but it is with the utmost
contempt that I regard such u report and
with equal irony that I repeat it. Wo will
see whether that party knows moro of the
real condition of this property than its
responsible oniccrs. In my opinion the
present depression will bo short lived. By
Lho end of Septomuor you will see n great
change in the money market , and business
houses will rcsuino their activity. I do not
think there is anything to bo particularly
nlarmed about in the present railroad situa
tion. "
A highly satisfactory statement was pre
sented today of the Milwaukee & St. Paul

A. W. Clark has wrltlon n lengthy com
munication to Till ! BRK , in which ho criti
cises the county commissioners and Dan C.
Burr for their attitude on the "Kesouo hall"
matter. Mr , Clark says , In part :
"In the first place they seem lo bo utterly
ignorant as to the relationship between Hos-
cue hall and Aisoclated Charities. Kosuuo "
nail is not operated by the Associated Char
ities. Aside from tholr ignorance of the
dllfcronco between the Omaha City mission ,
with headquarters nt Kescno hall , and Asso
ciated Charities , they seem lo bo utterly
Ignorant of the fundamental objects of both
these organizations. What docs nil this
mcani It is simply the old , old story uf
county olllcials opposing organised charities.
"This Is not something now In thu history
of the development of sclentltle charity.
Kvory charity organization has had to con
tend with the Hnino sort of opposition In
nearly every city In the union , and pwhups
wo ouuht not to bo surprised nt such opposi
tion upon the part of our olllcials. At the
same tlmo wo inunt say wo had expected bet
tor things from thorn. I know that the
great majority of the thinking people of
Omaha will not bo influo.iced by siioh criti
cisms , but there are others who are not In
formed nnd may bo led to think that Associ
ated CharltloannU work at Rescue hull tend
lo create pauperism rather than lo reduce
it. I want to say to these that thu Aasociatod
Charities nnd the Omaha City mission have
Ijoen carried forward with this as the
constant , object in view , the suppression of
pauperism as rapidly as possible , When As
sociated Charities of our city begun to work
it was announced ut the Ilmo that Douglas
county should bo saved $10,000 during the
next twelve months , but a larger sum than
110,000 was saved to the county during the
next twelve months , ' '

DEATH CLOSED HIS EYELIDS
Edward McKenna, the Victim of Saturday's Shooting, Dies from His Wound
BARNEY McGYNN'S MURDEROUS BULLET
Inquiry will be held today at the County Courthouse of Lincoln, Nebraska. Edward McKenna, the victim of the shooting on Saturday night, died just before noon yesterday. Barney McGynn will now have to answer to the charge of murder.
The remains of the murdered man were taken to the morgue by Coroner Maul and will be held, pending an inquest. McKenna's case was hopeless almost from the start. The wound was an ugly one and the physician saw but little hope of prolonging his life and none of saving it. The physicians remained with the injured man all day Sunday and through the night, but decided yesterday morning that he could not live more than a few hours. They had been absent from the house but a short time when the end came.
Immediately after being informed by Coroner Maul of the death of McKenna, Captain Courtney had McGynn taken to the county jail. A reporter was allowed to have a moment's conversation with the murderer yesterday afternoon. McGynn was locked in the big cage in the west wing of the Jail and when called for by the sheriff stopped slowly out of his cell.
"McKenna is dead," was the first remark of the sheriff to his prisoner.
"Is that so?" McGynn replied. "Well, I am sorry. Indeed, I am sorry," said McGynn as he tried to wipe an imaginary tear from his right eye. He was then asked what he had to say about the case and replied,
"I am sorry he is dead; I still insist that he had hold of me when I shot him."
Several questions were asked by both the sheriff and the reporter, but McGynn insisted that he had nothing more to say about the case.
The death of McKenna caused considerable excitement in the north end of town where he resided. Some of the hot-headed neighbors of the deceased were "in favor of at once organizing a force to take McGynn from the county jail and lynch him. Fortunately, people with some idea of the law's right were among the small crowd that talked the matter over and succeeded in pacifying the radical contingent.
Dr. Impoy, who has had charge of the case, stated yesterday that death was caused by peritonitis.
Post Mortem Examination.
Acting in his official capacity and in accordance with the wish of friends and relatives, Coroner Maul ordered a post mortem examination made. Doctors Somers, Impoy, and Matthews performed the operation at 8 o'clock last evening. Examination revealed the fact that the bullet was lodged in the right thigh, having passed through the stomach and cut the small intestines in several places.
After the surgeons had finished the post mortem the body was turned over to one of Maul's assistants, and the remains were embalmed and prepared for burial.
Members of the Ancient Order of United Workmen are, in a measure, taking charge of the body and two of the lodge men will remain at the house until after the funeral, which will be held at 2 o'clock p.m. Wednesday from the residence of the deceased, 612 Grand avenue.
Anxiously for his Family.
Before his death McKenna asked for an attorney, and one was sent for. In the presence of the lawyer and his family McKenna made his last will, leaving all his personal property to his wife. He declined, even in his dying moments, to make any statement regarding the shooting or the cause of the trouble. The only thing to him was the proper provision for his wife.
Questions were put to him about the shooting, but to no avail. He died before the sun had set at the mercy of Coroner Maul will today summon a jury of twelve men to hear the testimony introduced. The jury will go out and view the body at 8 a.m. The Inquest will be held at the morgue at 10 o'clock.
Following is a list of the witnesses who have been summoned to appear before the coroner's jury: H.L. Robbins, 5827 North Twenty-fourth street; Dr. Alulcizio, 4805 North Twenty-fourth street; Charles Lear, motorman, Twenty-fourth street and Ames avenue; William McGee, Twenty-fourth street and Ames avenue.
TAKEN TO LINCOLN.
Proclaimed Lynchum Felled by Prompt Action of the Officials.
About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon Chief Seavey received reports from his officers in North Omaha to the effect that an effort would be made to lynch Barney McGynn last night or early this morning.
He called all the police force on duty at 7 o'clock and held them in reserve at the station. At 7:30 o'clock a crowd began to gather on the streets near the jail.
At the head of fifty picked men Chief Seavey marched to the jail and placed guards at all the entrances. to the court house yard, with strict orders not to admit strangers or any one who had no business there. The crowds increased so rapidly that he had to order twenty more men to clear the four streets, Barnoy, Farnam, Eighteenth, and Seventeenth, which border the county building. This, no doubt, prevented serious trouble, as crowds were forced to "move on" as fast as formed.
Sheriff Dennett armed his deputies and a were in several specials. He had attended a meeting in the Saratoga school yards where a crowd had assembled to organize a lynching party. The sheriff dispersed the crowd.
Chief Seavey then ordered his men to "clear Farnam, Barnoy, Seventeenth, and Eighteenth streets of every body," Suddenly at a signal from the chief, two hacks drove off. One drove to the north side of the court house and the other to the south side. McGynn and Dodrill had been taken into the residence portion of the jail and as soon as the hack crossed Seventeenth and Barnoy streets the sheriff, Chief Seavey, and several officers rushed them down the stone steps into the hack. They were gone before any one realized the ruse, and last night the murderers slept in safety in the Lancaster county jail. The sheriff drove the men to Sheoloy's station, where a special train of an engine and one coach was in readiness on the B&M, and in a few minutes the party was toward Lincoln.
Omaha Bank
The total clearings of the national banks of Omaha for the month of July were $65,413, which was a decrease of $1,512 from compared with the same month last year.
In making this comparison it would be well to call to mind the fact that the clearings for July of last year were the largest in the history of the clearing house up to that time and the largest of any month during 1892 excepting only October and December. The midsummer jobbing ratio last year was something phenomenal and the volume of business was reflected in the clearings. It would have created no surprise had there been a decrease in the clearings for July this year, even had they been the talk of hard times and no money circumstances, as the heavy jobbing trade came earlier in the spring than it did last year. The total clearings for the first seven months this year exceed the clearings for the corresponding time last year by $16,732.
"High Ridge," the Sioux soldier who was shot last week for stealing apples, is reported to be in a critical condition. He is able to die at any moment. Dr. Hartsuff, the post surgeon, has done everything possible to save the Indian, but the chances for his recovery are exceedingly slim.
This action by the committee, with a desire to effect a saving of the people's money, are discussing a plan that will enable nearly all of the street lights furnished by the Thomson.
Houston company to be tested. In all probability, a resolution will be introduced in the council this evening, or at some other curly future meeting, directing the city electrician to devote his time to the testing of the area lights at night, giving him the days off for rest. It is believed that such a resolution will pass if presented, and it will give the city grounds to reduce the monthly bills of the lighting companies, when the lights are found to be below 2,000-candlepower.

STOCKS RISE AND TAKE EX VICE.
The market remained steady throughout the day.
New York, July 31. Stocks opened lower. Chicago Gas broke from 42½ to 31, Lake Shore broke on light sales from 109 to 103, Whisky dropped to 13, General Electric to 117, St. Paul to 49½, Burlington to 60. Fears of tight money owing to the heavy withdrawals of currency last week caused a bearish feeling. Lower cables and talk of cutting east-bound rates by the trunk lines led to the depression. Pullman dropped from 130 to 125, Lake Shore 5 to 104, Sugar ⅓ to 01½, General Electric ⅓ to 114, Chicago Gas 3½ to 9½, St. Paul 3½ to 43, Northwestern 1314 to 87, Chicago & Alton sold at 142, the last premium sale.
Just before 11 Western Union bounded up from 68 to 72½. This strengthened the whole list, which rallied 4 to 3½, the latter in Lake Shore. The market was heavily overbought. At 11 Western Union declined to 70½, and the general market became easier.
After 11, under heavy purchases, a general advance ensued, ranging from 1 to 3, the latter in General Electric, which advanced to 41. Pullman advanced 5 to 133. The Grangers, Sugar and Chicago Gas were also conspicuous. At noon the market was firm.
In late trading stocks were somewhat easier. St. Paul receded to 50 and General Electric to 110. The market closed tolerably firm. Silver was entirely neglected. Money closed easier at 3, after ranging as high as 3 per cent.
Advices from Chicago say that the First National bank of that city has ordered 5,000,000 in gold to London and two other banks smaller amounts.
The withdrawal of deposits today at many of the city savings banks was quite heavy, and the presidents pointed to the lines waiting at the windows as proof of the wisdom of the action taken on Monday, because without it the depositors would not have been protected from the runs which would have followed. It showed also that all the banks will have to take advantage of the legal allowance under the sixty days notice provision. There was no excitement, as in the case of a run.
Savings banks in good condition.
J. Harson Rhodes, chairman of the executive committee of the savings banks of the state of New York, said that he knew that all the savings banks were in good condition, as the cash reserves showed, and he thought no money would be drawn from the deposit banks for a long while. He continued:
"You see that the drain that we have been experiencing for the last two or three weeks is still in force, and it shows how timely and expedient was our decision. Early in June I said that the savings banks were in good condition and would probably soon be able to return their large currency holdings. But from that time on the withdrawals increased slowly, gradually from day to day, but at no time was there any indication of a panicky feeling. Today the line is the longest we have had, and you see how calm everybody is. There are more here than on interest paying day, but they do not communicate with one another and thus spread no alarm."
Mr. Rhodes added that the action of Friday was made necessary by the difficulty of procuring supplies from the downtown banks. He said that the savings banks presidents had drawn as little as possible on the strained market, but the drafts during the last week had reached $10,000 a day, against an average of deposits of $15,000.
Saying that this was hurting everybody and that it threatened to make the savings banks a constant drain, the action was what was for the best in the long run, he continued, "We follow a policy of allowing as little as possible on deposit banks, we have plenty of money on hand, the amount is less than the usual cash reserve (about two-thirds), but is enough with the application of the sixty-day rule to avoid any further drafts on the general store of currency."
The currency movement was again heavy today, the shipments out of town being estimated at from $1,750,000 to $2,000,000. The majority of the shipments consisted of coin. From the sub-treasury alone $2,001,000 in silver dollars was sent by express to the country banks at the request of their New York correspondents.
There is a growing disposition among New York bankers to take some action looking to a stoppage of the drain. At considerable inconvenience to themselves they have taken out of the clearing house loan certificates and sent them to their recognized correspondents, some of the money being borrowed or lent at high rates of interest at the New York Clearing House. In consequence, accommodation was given to the country banks much less freely today than heretofore.
The executions over the counter were about $100,000 and about $2,100,000 were paid out in checks. Most of this was in coin. From San Francisco $50,000 was received by telegraph. Clearing House loan certificates to the amount of $3,750,000 were taken out. Most of these, it was thought, were for use in facilitating gold imports, which are expected to reach large proportions within the next two weeks. The total outstanding issue of certificates has now reached $77,305,000. This is the largest amount ever put into circulation, beating the records of 1873 and 1879.
Another panicky slump in the wheat market on the Chicago Board of Trade this morning. September opened at 37½c, against 38½c at the close of Saturday. It quickly slid off to 32½c and almost as quickly rallied to 35c. Thereafter it became quiet and comparatively steady, fluctuating within the extreme range of 35 and 36½c; the same causes which prevailed for some time continued today - the gloomy financial outlook; inability of the longs to get money to carry wheat and inability to take advantage of offers for cash wheat, because it was impossible to sell New York exchange. It is understood that one house, the senior member of which was one of the prominent figures on the board, but who has not been doing a large business lately, notified those having dealings with the bank to cover trades.
Boston, July 31. At a meeting in the Parker House today of representatives of sixty-three savings banks of the state it was voted to recommend that the banks take action at once in applying the restriction provided by their by-laws against the withdrawals of large deposits without the required notice.

For a couple of years, Sam Klein has made it his business, according to the police, to hustle trade for a certain low resort in the burnt district. Yesterday morning he was arrested on an old charge, which gave the court such a hard talk about his reforming that it looked almost as if the Judge was about to give him a chance. But just at this time Sergeants Orinsky and Wheeler came up and asked permission to tell the side of the story, to the effect that Klein spends most of his time at the resort and frequently abuses the customers.
The Judge didn't want to hear any more, but said, "Thirty-five dollars and costs, and you will work it out on your own labor." Klein nearly fainted when he heard the sentence. Fireworks tonight, Courtland bench.
Wilson Lumber Company President Against the Employment of Nonunion Men, Asm.AM. Wis., July 31. A crisis has been reached in the lumber shoveler's strike this morning. The strikers openly defied the officers of the city and county, closing with them in a hand-to-hand battle, in which blood was shed freely.
The Shores Lumber company sent word to Mayor O'Keefe that it would commence loading its boats at noon with nonunion laborers and asked for protection. The mayor sent Chief of Police Schwartz and some officers to the docks, where they were met by Sheriff O'Brien and deputies. The officers took a stand on the tramway of the dock. Work had hardly commenced on the dock when a great mob of strikers swarmed down over the dock and tramway. The foremost of them were forcibly handcuffed by the officers and others were arrested, who were afterwards rescued from the police by their followers. A desperate hand-to-hand contest followed, in which revolvers were drawn and several shots were fired. The officers were nearly all bruised with clubs and stones.
The advance on the tramway was finally checked, but the strikers then swarmed down underneath the tramway and made for the boats, reaching them ahead of the officers. There an awful scene of brutality was enacted by the violent mob. Nonunion men who were loading the boats were struck down with clubs and terribly beaten as they fled, panic-stricken, followed by the strikers. They were met by the officers, who protected them from further violence, forty of the ringleaders among the strikers have been arrested.
E.A. Shores says he will sue for damages, as he has long complained that violence was imminent. Mayor O'Keefe's blood is up. He says the presidents of the lumber shoveler's had informed him that no violence would be committed. He now swears that the city will protect the nonunion laborers at any cost.
The mob was composed not only of lumber shoveler's, but of coal heavers, stevedores, and all classes of dock laborers. The men have become so intimidated that it is almost impossible to get them started at work again. Mayor O'Keefe is now doing his best to get them to return to work, where, he says, they will be protected if he has to raise an army to do it.

Hometown Relief of a Wisconsin Farmer
Proclaimed by Diplomacy.
AUGUSTA, Wis., July 31. William Nonemacher, a farmer living nine miles south of here, murdered his wife and three children on Saturday night and then made an unsuccessful attempt on his own life. The deed was not discovered until Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock, but the news reached here this morning. At the inquest Nonemacher made a full confession. He said the crops had failed and he was afraid of starving. His parents were in Quebec, where they had come all the way from Germany and wanted money, and he had none to send them. He had intended to kill his family Friday night, but changed his plan to Saturday. After the family was asleep, he went out and got an ax and returned to do the deed. He said he killed his wife first by three swinging blows on the left temple. He then went into the next room and killed Joseph, 9 years old, and Willie, 4 years old. He struck both boys on the heart.
Returning to the room where his daughter lay, he picked up his year-old baby, held her in one arm, and struck her on top of the head. He then went to the barn, climbed on the roof, and jumped twenty feet to the floor of the pigsty, sustaining injuries to the spine and paralyzing his lower extremities. Sunday afternoon Nonemacher's brother's little children went over and saw the boys all bloody on the bed and ran home and told their father, who summoned the coroner. Today the jury returned a verdict that the wife and children came to their deaths by an ax in the hands of William Nonemacher, in accordance with his confession.
A visit to the scene of the murder disclosed a horrible sight. The mother lay on her left side with a gaping wound in the temple. The baby was in a cradle beside the bed. The boys were in the bed in the next room in a pool of blood. The father, as he lay on the floor of the kitchen paralyzed, but conscious, without the least sign of sorrow or regret, talked as calmly about the murder as he would about killing a pig. After the inquest, the murderer was brought to town and placed in jail, but may not live to be tried. He was always kind to his family and a good citizen, but easily gave way to despondency.

FIRST RUN OF THE NAVAHOE
Hoyal Phelps Carroll's debt Tries Conclusions with Valkyrie.
SPLENDID SHOWING MADE BY THE YANKTON
She Kelly Salt Along-with the Cranks and Coed Impression on that Scene Only a
Minute Housed.
LONDON, July 31. The regatta of the Royal London Yacht club took place off
Cowes, Isle of Wight. The week never opened with greater eclat and a regatta
never excited more lively interest. The Solent never before was so crowded
with yachts and launches. The presence of the German Imperial yacht Hohenzollern,
the United States cruiser Chicago, the German training ships Stosch and Gensau,
the British battleship Neptune and other vessels of the English navy and the International
yacht Victoria, all decorated with flags from stem to stern, lent a charming brilliancy to
the scene. The bright sunshine and a blue sky supplied everything needed to complete
the yachtsmen's paradise. The presence of so many royalties, whom the recently
wedded duke and duchess of York joined during the day, raised society people to the
seventh heaven. Every suitable point
ashore and everything that could float was crowded with interested spectators, the
ladies vying with one another in the brightness and novelty of their costumes.
The interest of most of the spectators
centered chiefly in the German emperor,
while the yachtsmen's interest centered in
the respective performances of the American
yacht Navahoe and the English Valkyrie.
The former, being still unrated, was jokingly called a "dark horse."
Among the boats that took part in the race were:
Royal Phelps Carroll's Navahoe, Lord Dunravon's Valkyrie, J. Lawson's Ivorna,
the prince of Wales' Britannia, A. B. Clark's Santa Anita and P. Donald's Caluns.
They made a flying start. The
Valkyrie, carrying Lord Dunravon and
commanded by the veteran Cranfield,
hit the line first, just as the gun was fired at
10 o'clock. Then followed in the order in
which they are named, the Ivorna, the Brit
tanning centered in the Valkyrie. There was
a natural exultation over the Navahoe's
rather bad start, which, however, gave way
to somewhat gloomy foreboding when,
on reaching the lightship, the American boat
was seen to be fast closing up on the Valkyrie.
Experts gazed at the Navahoe with
astonishment and remarked: ' 'She must be
a ripper." Old salts expressed surprise on
noticing that the Navahoe had her main sail
stiffened with wooden battens, an artifact
not infrequent with small craft, but unknown
on the Solent, with large, crack yachts.
Navahoe Won the, Brittannia was the 2nd place
All the racers set their spinnakers soon
after the starting. They ran thence to the
lightship. There the Navahoe showed hot
moment, and before rounding the "Leopold"
she was first. Joyous she did not appear as
stiff as the English vessels. When the
yachts reappeared in eight at Cowes at
the end of the first round, the people of the
Valkyrie and Navahoe engaged in a neck
and neck struggle, exciting surprise. The
first round was watched with intense interest.
The Navahoe finished first.
In running for the Wapy lightship the
second time, the Britannia and Valkyrie
crowded upon the Navahoe. Soon after rounding
the lightship, the Britannia took first place and Valkyrie second, leaving the
Navahoe in third place. The yachts maintained this order to the end. Tovoding a race
of great, though hardly exciting, interest.
Britannia Won the Race.
The victorious Britannia finished three
seconds ahead of the Valkyrie and one minute and twenty-six seconds behind the
Navahoe. She was greeted with cheering,
the firing of guns, the blowing
of whistles, etc. The Santa Anita
came fourth and the Caluns fifth.
Iverna gave up before the finish.
The times of the first three yachts is
as follows: Britannia, three hours forty-six
minutes sixteen seconds; Valkyrie,
three hours forty-seven minutes nineteen
seconds; Navahoe, three hours forty-seven
minutes forty-two seconds.
The wind blowing during the day just enabled the racing fleet to carry Jackyard topsails all round the course. The Navahoe was tried on all points of sailing and she came out of the trial in a satisfactory manner for a first performance. It is evident
that the Britannia and the Valkyrie will
have their hands full every time they meet the
Yankee if she can be improved in the slightest
degree. The Navahoe was the only one of
the yachts steered with a wheel, which
held to affect speed disadvantageously in
the running. No doubt the Navahoe, when
measured, will be the largest and will have
to give the others time.
AVON IT.
"Young Cornell" Thoroughly defeated, Baltimore
Club.
Indianapolis, July 31. The lightweight
finish fight between Paddy Smith, brother
of Denver Ed" Smith, and "Young Corbett," otherwise known as George Green, at the
Columbian Athletic club, attracted about
5,000 people tonight. The fight was for a
purse of $3,500, of which $5,000 went to the
loser. This was "Young Corbett's" first
finish fight, having his name-father, Champion
Jim Corbett, there to see it. He was
received by the multitude on his entrance
with a great demonstration.
The curtain raiser tonight was a ten-round bout between Henry Baker and William Mayo, both of Chicago for a $1,000 purse.
Both are heavyweights, but although Mayo
weighed nearly fifteen pounds more than
Baker, the latter won in the sixth round
after some furious fighting, in which both
men were badly punished. He succeeded in
landing a knockout blow on Mayo's neck.
The main fight of the evening was then
called. Smith was seconded by Joe
Choynski, Dan Murphy and Billy Pool with
Sol Van Praag as timekeeper. Green's seconds
were Billy Dolan and John Donaldson, Nick Abrahams timekeeper. Jofeco,
Sheriff Jim Corbett sat in his corner's, but took no active part.
During the interval President O'Malley of
the Columbian club stopped to the front and
made the announcement that the match between Corbett and Sullivan will be held in
this club. "I have the articles of agreement signed by Charles Mitchell which
binds him to fight before this club, and we
expect to get Corbett's signature soon. We
ought to appreciate Corbett's position. He
did not sign with the Cohuys Island Athletic
Club to meet Sullivan. It was nearly 11 o'clock when time was called. The first two rounds were good exhibitions of cautious sparring, Green being very shifty. In the third round he started rushing tactics, hitting Smith on the forehead, but Paddy turned a hard one on the neck, throwing Green to the ropes. Green tried again, landing on Smith's head, and just at this juncture the electric lights went out and the referee parted the men.
After a delay of over half an hour, oil lamps were brought into use. The men
came up fresh for the fourth round, which
was another exhibition of cautious sparring.
Toward its close Smith used his elbow on
Green's neck, and loud cries of foul were
heard. Both landed heavily just as the gong
sounded.
In the fifth Smith rushed Green around
the ring, but suddenly Green landed a left
with good effect. Smith did some dirty in
fighting in a clinch and the referee warned him.
In the sixth, after sharp exchanges, Smith again tried untalented work and was once more warned by the referee.
In the seventh, after sharp exchanges and hard infighting, Green uppercut with good effect, but Paddy caution back with a swing on the neck which staggered Green.
In the eighth, Smith landed on Green's stomach, but Green returned a fight on the neck, knocking Smith to the ropes.
In the ninth, Smith landed in Smith's left eye, raising a lump; then an apprentice, when Smith clinched to avoid punishment. Green seemed weak, but Smith butted him and was warned by the referee.
In the tenth and eleventh, Smith seemed to be tiring, but his punches all fell short. Given lands several times, but his blows lack force.
In the twelfth, after hard infighting, Green landed heavily on Smith's neck, staggering him. In the thirteenth and fourteenth, there was considerable hot infighting, but Green's blows did not seem to count and Smith had the best of it. In the fifteenth, after sharp infighting, Smith knocked Green to his knees.
In the sixteenth, Green landed hard on Smith's mouth, swelling Paddy's lips. In the seventeenth, Smith rushed Green, landing a swing on the neck which sent Green to the ropes. Green landed on Smith's nose, and is credited with first blood. Green now seems to be regaining strength and in the eighteenth and nineteenth rounds landed on Smith's sore nose and uppercut him with good effect.
In the twentieth and twenty-first rounds, there were several hot exchanges, but no serious damage. In the twenty-second, Smith browns blood from Green's nose. In the twenty-third, Green was very aggressive, but did not inflict any punishment on Smith, while he got two or three heavy blows himself.
In the twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth, Green rushed Smith around and landed some good ones on the neck and body. In the twenty-sixth, he landed heavy on Smith's ear, and in spite of a sharp return, rushed Smith to the ropes and had everything his own way at the call of time.
In the twenty-seventh, the aspect of affairs changed. Green was knocked down by a swing on the jaw. He got up before he was counted out, but Smith knocked him down twice in succession, Green finally clinching to avoid punishment. This was the hottest round of the fight.
In the twenty-eighth, Green came up apparently fresh, but Smith landed and knocked him down. Declanoy threw up the sponge, but Green would not quit until Champion Jim Corbett went into the ring and made him stop.

GRANULATES OF GOLD.
President Stolhmeyer of the National Bank of Omaha has had a few words to say.
CHICAGO, July 31. President J. W. Koinart of the Santa Fe arrived in Chicago today from the east. In speaking of the general railroad situation, he said: "Yes, it is true that traffic has fallen off very much lately, but the men in whose hands the management of the great railroad systems of the country is, foresaw that many months ago and began to prepare for it then. The reduction in expenses in all directions has kept pace with the reduction of traffic and while gross earnings have decreased in many cases, it will be found when the final settling comes that the net earnings on the best of the roads are as large as they ever were. I am decidedly not of the opinion that there is any foundation in fact for the many rumors that have been circulated to the effect that a general passing of dividends is to be expected. As to how those rumors have been started, no responsible man would have the courage to say, unless he is thoroughly familiar with the real situation in all its details, but they have probably been caused by irresponsible parties, who have sold other people's property and want to buy it back at a lower price than they paid for it. They have been started by men who ought to be in the penitentiary. Oh, yes, I am very well aware that the Santa Fe will follow the Erie into the hands of a receiver, as reported, but it is with the utmost contempt that I regard such a report and with equal irony that I repeat it. We will see whether that party knows more of the real condition of this property than its responsible officers. In my opinion, the present depression will be short-lived. By the end of September, you will see a great change in the money market, and business houses will resume their activity. I do not think there is anything to be particularly alarmed about in the present railroad situation."
A highly satisfactory statement was presented today of the Milwaukee & St. Paul road for the month of June and for the fiscal year ending June: It showed the gross earnings to have been $6,194,073.65 for the month, as compared with $4,957,810.05 for the corresponding month last year, being an increase of $1,236.26. The expenses were $5,799,720.15, against $1,781,610.05 for the same month last year, a decrease of $380,411.65. The net earnings for the month amounted to $1,394,353.50, against $800,808.11 for June, 1892, an increase of $593,545.39; Gross earnings for the year amounted to $31,715,505.01, against $26,481.834.54 for the previous year, an increase of $5,233,670.47. Expenses for the year amounted to $22,488,107.83, against $20,815,904.60 for the previous year, an increase of $1,672.20. Net earnings for the year, $9,227.397.18, against $8,665.929.94 for the previous year, an increase of $561,467.24.
Rates from St. Louis to St. Paul have been reduced to $10 one way and $20 for the round trip. This reduction has been taken because the sum of the reduced World's Fair rates from St. Louis to Chicago and Chicago to St. Paul will be these figures.

CAMP LINCOLN IS ALIVE
Thousands of Old Soldiers Flock to the Grand Reunion at Superior,
GREAT TIMES PROMISED FOR THE OLD BOYS
Commander Adams Arrives to Highly Entertain the Veterans and Their Wives Yesterday and Today in the City of Tents,
Superior, Neb., July 31. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE.] The fifth annual interstate reunion of Nebraska and Kansas opened up here today in a blaze of glory and a cloud of dust, and Commander C. K. Adams predicts a more magnificent success than has ever been achieved by this association. That the efficient and courteous commander bases his prognostication on good grounds is testified to by the large crowd already in attendance, and the General military and gala aspect that presents itself everywhere. It is Superior, one of the prettiest and thriftiest little cities in the state, is out in her best holiday dress, with her private residences and business buildings adorned with bunting and banners, all in honor of the bold soldier boys who have assembled here once again to refresh the memory of the stirring days of the great rebellion.
It Is a Splendid Association.
This association is fast becoming one of the most conspicuous in the whole western country, having been an unrivalled success from the very inception. It now comprises within its membership the counties of Gage, Jefferson, Thayer, Nuckolls, Webster, Franklin, Platte, Furnas, Red Willow, Gosper, Hayes, Phelps, Kearney, Adams, and Fillmore in Nebraska, and Washington, Clay, Republic, Jewell, Smith, Decatur, Phillips, Osborne, Mitchell, and Graham, Kansas, and before the lapse of many more years continually expects to enroll every county in both states, when this annual assembling will be a colossal affair indeed. As it is now it is magnificent enough to attract anywhere from 10,000 to 50,000 people.
It's a Grand Camp.
The encampment is most favorably situated at Lincoln Park on a broad plateau east of the Republican, with a low range of emerald bluffs on the north and immeasurable fields of waving grain and pasture land on the east and south. There are about 6,000 tents pitched here, of which number fully one-half are occupied tonight, and by tomorrow Commander Adams and his aides will be at their wits' ends for accommodations for the immense throng that is sure to be here. The speakers' stand stands in the midst of a shady grove in the center of the park, with Lost Creek winding in and out among the trees and shrubbery on the east and north, giving Camp Lincoln a romantic appearance indeed. The white city is on the west of the grove, while to the east of this are the calling and freak booths, merry-go-rounds, shooting galleries, museums, phonographic and photographic depots, field trial ground, and numerous other concomitants calculated to amuse and edify the masses, in the grove and about the park are several hundred farmers' families already ensconced in tents and structures of various kinds, bent on making a week of it.
Starts for Sure Tomorrow.
The fun will open in earnest tomorrow when the grand Army and National Guards of Nebraska and Kansas will be addressed by Department Commander General A. H.
Church and Hon. Church Howe and after the oration follows target practice by Captain Murdoch's Wyoming battery of four pieces at 4,000 yards solid shot, a drill of the infantry, dress parade by the guards, guard mount and camp fire in the evening.
Of the National Guard of Nebraska, company II, commander, Captain Lyons, is the only one yet on hand. Murdoch's battery of light artillery, company G, Lieutenant Hood in command; the Fairbury company, Captain Hostey, and the Genova company will arrive on the morning train, while the Clyde, Topoka, and Minneapolis companies of Kansas are expected in the afternoon. The latter may not come, however, as Commander Adams is in receipt of a telegram from Adjutant General Art of Kansas that the state guards are all on duty at the Weir City coal mines.
One arrival lands in Nebraska. There was a conspicuous arrival this evening was General Low Hunkback of Topkea, known to the boys in blue as the John A. Logan of the west. General Hunkback made an enviable record in the war and served in congress for thirty consecutive years and is a line looking man, companionable individual and an interesting speaker. Tomorrow's program would be incomplete without a speech from General Low Hunkback, which will be forthcoming later.
Among the other notable old soldiers who will be here are: General A. G. Wallace, national commander of Grand Army of the Republic of Milwaukee; General H. Hastings, General H. C. Russell, Captain Shickley and Hon. John J. Ingalls, Ex-Governor Thayer, Governor Crounse, Congressman M. P. Hopkins and scores of others.
BESOUI HALL.
A. W. Clark Criticizes the County Commissioners for their actions on the "Rescue hall" matter. Mr. Clark says, in part:
"In the first place, they seem to be utterly ignorant as to the relationship between Rescue hall and Associated Charities. Rescue hall is not operated by the Associated Charities. Aside from their ignorance of the difference between the Omaha City mission, with headquarters at Rescue hall, and Associated Charities, they seem to be utterly ignorant of the fundamental objects of both these organizations. What does all this mean? It is simply the old, old story of county officials opposing organized charities.
"This is not something new in the history of the development of scientific charity. Every charity organization has had to contend with the same sort of opposition in nearly every city in the union, and probably we ought not to be surprised at such opposition upon the part of our officials. At the same time, we must say we had expected better things from them. I know that the great majority of the thinking people of Omaha will not be influenced by such criticisms, but there are others who are not informed and may be led to think that Associated Charities work at Rescue hall tends to create pauperism rather than to reduce it. I want to say to these that the Associated Charities and the Omaha City mission have been carried forward with this as their constant, object in view, the suppression of pauperism as rapidly as possible. When Associated Charities of our city began to work, it was announced at the time that Douglas County should be saved $10,000 during the next twelve months, but a larger sum than $10,000 was saved to the county during the next twelve months."

The friends of J. A. lloff , the well known
and popular Agent of the Hock Island
Knilroad company In this city , wcro consid
erably exercised yesterday whou It wns an
nounced that n now man hnd tnkcn his place
In thu management of the oOlcc , and that
Mr. UoH had gene to Chicago to hnvo n
personal conference with the officials of the
company. Inquiry was nnturnlly prose
cuted In all directions for a cause for tjio
sudden change. The state of facts elicited ,
though smowhat vngue , seem to Indicate
that Mr. Koft has been unfortunate In
having n careless If not dishonest cashier ,
whoso errors and discrepancies hnvo cre
ated wlmt nppcars to bo n shortage of
several hundred dol'nrs ' ,
The cashier Is J. 1 . Christiansen , n young
man , who has Ireen nn employe of the ofllco
for ninny .years , nnd who has been shown
every Kindness by Mr. KofT , rising from the
position of messenger boy to that of cashier.
Several wcoks ago Mr. Holt discovered thnt
the cashier's books wcro In an unsatisfactory
condition , and that bis cash wns sadly out
of balance. Immediately following the dis
covery the cashier handed in his resignation ,
nnd It was accepted , with thu provision that
ho should remain In the ofllco and assist In
finding what his employer bolloved to bo
simply n series of unfortunate blunders.
Aiikofl fur H I'tiKi to Cnlciigo.
Christiansen asked for n few days leave
nnd n pass to Ch < cago. This wns granted ,
nnd It is stilted that the young man went
Into the general ofllccs of the company with
the evident purpose of shifting the rcspou
siblllty and trying To square" himself , 'and
nuulo some covert Intimations alxnit the b.id
condition of the oRloo hero. The company
acted quickly upon the hints dropped nnd
sent out the traveling auditor to check
up. In the meantime Mr. Holt had been
working might and day on his cashier's
accounts , still In the belief that the clerk
had not taken n cent of the missing money.
Some things had been discovered that shook
his faith slightly , but when the auditor
came KofT vigorously defended the young
man , declaring that ho had perfect conll-
deuce in him.
"You have too much confidence in him' "
remarked the auditor. "They all claim that
the shortage Is only n mistake. "
A-thorough examination of the books
showed that Christiansen was short about
$750. The company was willing to compro
mise the mutter , nnd Chrlsllanson's rela
tives in the city wore culled upon to niako
up the amount , which was turned Into the
company a few days ago.
When this was settled the company
brought up another matter that had been
reported by Cliristiaiison on his Chicago
visit. That was the fact th.it Acont Holt had
paid the salary of ouo of the employes who
had been granted u brief leave of absence on
account of the dangerous illness of a parent.
This was without loss to the company , for
tlio other clerks and Mr. HolT himself per
formed the absentee's duties by working
overtime.
Air. Knir Resign * .
The consequent quibbling nnd the Irrita
tion caused Mr. UolT to telegraph his resig
nation to Chicago Saturday and follow it up
Dy a personal visit Sunday evening. Yes
terday the company placed Mr. George II.
Denton , of Stuart , in charge of the olllco.
Whether Mr. Hod's resignation will bo
finally accepted or not Is n matter of no 1I-
tlo concern to the people of the city , who
have learned to esteem him very highly. Ho
has devoted all his time to the company's '
business and has succeeded In getting for
tl.io company n good deal more than Its natu
ral share of business. Ho has boon very
popular , not only among the railway men of
the olty , but with all who have been brought
Into contact with him In any way , and his
friends hope to see thodifllculty straightened
up and Mr. HolT reinstated in his position.

The me.it market kept by J. Flood at 1024
Broadway burned yesterday morning at H:45 :

hour by u suspicious sound in the front part
of thu building , where the meat market is
located , and lighting n lamp went to see
wliat was the matter. Just as she opened
the door n man , who was In the market
room , rushed at her and pushed her up
against the wall , nt the same time knocking
tlio lamp out of her hnnd. It was
partially extinguished nnd in the dark
ness the two thieves , who had been
ransacking the building , escaped. The
lamp fell into the sawdust on the
lloor nnd in n moment the place was in

A Fort Scott Cltlzon ( ilvos Idea * on Train
ItoliliiT-i.
A prominent citizen of Fort Scott ,
Kan. , who evidently believes in the utter
extermination of train robbers atiU has
some ideas as to how it should be done ,
has given these ideas to the Missouri ,
Kansas & Texas railroad in the hope
that it might make an experiment along
the line of the ideas advanced. The
letter is out of the ordinary , and with a
view of making known the advantages
of the system of train robber warfare
contained in the letter the Missouri ,
Kansas 5 : Texas lias consented to its
publication. It reads :
To Tin : GENEUAI. MANAGEH OF THE Mis-
SOUHI , KANSAS & TEXAS HAII.UOAD : Dear
Sir Some weeks siuco I was a passenger on
ono of your ti\iius with a ticket from Fort
Scott , to Houston. AVe took supper at Vluita
and wcro held up an hour later at Priors
Creek station. Therefore this lotter. From
the commencement to the end I took consid
erable interest in the proceedings. I ob
served that few exhibited fear , thedominant
sensation being curiosity. I observed thnt
the | robbers wcro not only poorly organized ,
but had more or less apprehension about re
sults to themselves , the follows at our cars
continually crying to these In front : "Well ,
ain't you about through up there ? " and "For
Christ's ( sake , won't you over got through up
there I ? " anil "What in h 1 are you follows
doing up there ? " and so on all through thd
"job' " I observed that the llrst shot llred
by the express messenger put out all thu
lights in the car ( this on his statement ) .
Now , my observation leads mo to the con
clusion that if your company will run a
24-inch strip of boiler iron around the bodies
Just below the windows of your cars , put
four or llvo Winchesters In each cor just
above thu windows In glass-covered boxes
just ns you do axes and saws , marked
"For Kaiergonclcs , " post up notices In each
car offering a reward , In advance , of say
! 00 or fyK ( ) apicco for "fresh dead train
robbers , " I think you will see the meekness
nnd apathy of the ordinary to-bo-robbed pas
senger disappear and thu American public
will take care not only of itself , but o * any
stray robbers "caught In the act" along the
Hue of the Missouri , IvMisas & Texas.
The average traveling American thinks ho
has been robbed enough by the time the rail
road nnd the sleeper company have both had
a whack at him , and if you have any fear of
his being the Indirect cause of noncombatants -
ants ( women nnd children ) being hurt in the
shulllo ( by using the boiler iron ) put the
weapon hi Ills hand and thu majority of him
will act on his "man. "
Add the moro mercenary and , perhaps ,
more desperate fellows , who would be de
lighted tu kill a train robber and make a
hundred or two , and you will havu ample
protection on every train. Why 1 would not
bo much surprised to learn that many train
robbers hud "quit the road" and gene gun
ning for their erstwhile comrades. Hoping
there may bo something now to you in my
suggestions , nnd assuring you that it docs
make a man mud tu bo robbed , and bollov-
ing that with a fair chance any man will
light , I rojiaiu yours , etc.

THE BAQGAUK SMASHER.II
Tlll-oo Cliocrlul l.lttlo Stnrles UoculluU ! ) ) tl
Middle AKCI | Citizen.
"I look in vain in the literature of the
day , " said a middle nfjcd man to the
Now York Sun , "for stories of tlio haij-
Rage smasher , such as were current
thirty or forty yearn afjo , which used to
interest mo very iniioh. Who that is
old enough cannot recall the story of the
bastfajjo master and the oiroua man's
Biinko':1 The circus man's trunks , it
will bo remembered , had been at one
time and another pretty roughly
handled , and so one day he got a rather
Ilimsy trunk and put in it a boa constrictor
stricter twenty-two feet lontf , and he
marked on the outside or tlio trunk :
'Don't ' break ! Boa constrictor inside. '
" 'Oil , I've just been watting for some
body to ship a boa constrict or by this
line , ' aaid the baggage smasher , and ho
grabbed the trunk by one of its handles ,
intending to toss itover his head , but ho
yanked with such sudden energy that ho
pulled the handle off. Then ho kicked
tlio trunk over , the other end up and
grabbed it by the other handle , lifted it
and dropped it and smashed it wide
open , and there was a snake in it , and
the siittKe came out and uncoiled himself ,
and when he coiled himself up again ho
was around tlio baggage master , and
"The bnggugo master never checked
any baggage after that.
"Another story told of the tribula
tions of a traveler whoso trunks had
been smashed and how finally lie filled
a big trunk with dynamite and 'marked
'Handle with care ! Dynamited
" 'Dynamite ! ' said the baggage
master , with line scorn , and ho pulled
the trunk down from the top of u high
pile and let it fail on ono corner and
"He never returned.
' 'Then there was the story about the
angered traveler who placed upon the
corners of his trunk patches , of some
material so elastic and springy that i
you dropped the trunk hard it boundei
into the air thousands of feet. This
trunk eatno to the station on the sum
mit of a great load of trunks , and the
baggage master seized itby the handle ,
braced ono foot against the load and
pulled the trunk oil' and lot it fall on
ono eoi nor and
"It never cnmo back.
"And the owner sued and recovered
for the loss of his trunk.
"It might not bo easy in a paragraph
conclusively to assign reasons for the de
cline of the trunk story. Certainly the
baggage master is as powerful as ever ,
and surely he cannot have lost in the
comparatively brief period of thirty or
forty years that line sense of humor that
once prompted him playfully to drop a
trunk and break it wide open. It seems
more probable that ho has shared with
with the rest of mankind in that stead
ily advancing refinement of methods
which has marked our progress in
recent years ; that ho is not less humor
ous , but only less boisterous than ho
was ; and it may be , too , that the fact
that trunks generally are made stronger
than they were has had something to do
with it. "

ART WORK ON GIiASS.
A Novelty of IntcircM to All Stuilents of
Decorlitlon.
The craze for decoration has of into
years taxed to the utmost the ingenuity
of tlio designers and inventors to satisfy
tlio demand for novelties. In most every
household may bo found one or more
members , who , w hilo they have neither
the talent nor patience , nor porlmjM the
time , to learn painting , nro eager to
soi/.o upon any sort of decorative work
that piomiscH good results with a small
outlay of trouble. To meet the demands
of tluB class numerous new ideas have
been given to the public , saytitho Phila
delphia Kecord. Among them may Id Io
mentioned siliceno , which is a method
of imitating stained glass , and , while it
ia really decorative , is so easily done
that the veriest tyro may undertake it
witli confidence. It docs not make any
nrotcntions to rival stained glass , but it
is far preferable to any other imitation.
The oxpcnso is small , as no cutting ,
firing or leading i necessary. A nlnirlo
sheet of glass is simply treated us in a
water color drawing , tlio design being
sketched and tlio colors laid on. tfd
Ordinary sheet or plato glass is used ,
and if tins is washed over with silicone ,
which is really the medium used to mix
the colors , a semblance to thu glass used
in old windows can be more nearly Mlb
tained. If a bcmi-transparunt effect
should bo dchircd , use ground glass ' ,
Hough , wavy glass may bo ellectually
iibed in staircase windows , panels for [ ) !
hull doors , screens , etc. Tlio glass must
bo perfectly clean before the work is be
gun dust upon its Kiirfaco will CIUHO
spooks to appear in the finished work.
The design , being first drawn on
paper , may bo readily transferred by
placing the glats over it and tracing
tile outline < vith pun and ink. A little
ox gall added to the ink will make it
How freely. If loadings are to be imi
tated ( ami they blumld be in all case.s ,
an they greatly enhance the ull'ootj ,
these outlines may bo put in broadly.
In thin case all the coloring should be
done on tlio eido on which the leadings
are drawn , otherwise the painting it >
done on thu reverse side from the draw
ing , and when thu painting is uomuwhat
advanced the ink lines are washed oil.
Tlio colors are especially prepared for
tlio purpose ; are translucent , and are
rendered permanent by the admixture
if olllcono. They are quite different
rein ordinary colors ; and whllo they
nay bo freely mixed together , no other
sort may lw mixed with them. Linseed
oil may be found useful to prevent tlio
colors drying to qulekly. When the
Irawhifr is done tlio glass is placed in a
letting position , with a .sheet of white
. light-colored paper on the table be-
iicatn. The table should IK ) so placed
tilil the worker may face the light. The
Ingcr is usually employed for softening
tf [ nt ! > , as in china painting , and is butter
limn any tool yet devised for the pur-
nose. Should any part of the painting
appear dull when dry , a coat of pure
siliceno applied with a camel's hair
brush will restore brilliancy.
To produce an intense tint of the
same color over-painting may lw re
sorted to ; If it bo desirable to vary it , a
wash with some other color may be ap-
[ tiled. A brilliant red is obtained by
painting with rose-color or scarlet over
yellow ; rose over blue or blun over
yellow will glvo a .strength of ti5m > . It
is also tiesruble ? to add a little roco-
color to tlio shade color , which can be
purchased already prepared for use.
Stippling will smooth a waih
which appears rough. White
is imitated by applying the pure siliceno
thinly with the linger , and high lights
are picked out with a penknife or pointed
stick. Should corrections bo necessary
the error may be washed out with tur
pentine or alcohol. Tlio imitation lead
ings are improved by covering them
with dull silver bronze. When the
painting is completely dry an oven wash
of pure silicone is given it as a preserva
tive , it must be applied in one wasli and
should not be repeated.
In fixing tlio painting in position it is
reversed and put into the sash with thin
bits ot-wood between tt and the window
proper to prevent the two panes coming
in contact. Brushes should be cleansed
with turnontino if they become clogged.
IIb leftover night in the paint they will
bo miinud.
There is a good deal in tlio proper se
lection of a design. It should not only
fit the work , but lit the position for
which it is Intended. A coat-of-arms is
suited to a staircase or hall , historical
subjects or portrait heads to the library ,

Don't take your money out of the bank
and bury it , says thu Clinton Ago.
Skunks or squirrels or dogs will dig it
up and destroy it. Don't put it in your
stockings because you can put your
stockings , to bettor use by wearing them.
Don't wrap it up in an old newspaper or
an Old rag and hide it in some corner ,
because the rats will surely gee hold of
it and help you hide it so elVcotutilly ihat
you can never find it. The house is n.0
place for your money anyway. Uurglars
got it and carry it off and then you lament -
mont your foolishness in taking it out of i
the bank. If you don't want to invest" !
yovr money let it stay in the bank if it
is there. If it is not there don't lose any
time in putting it there. All this ilraw-
ing'monoy out of the bank and hoarding
it contracts the currency and produces
a stringency in the money market. The
times may be the best imaginable and all '
tlio whso ' legislation conceivable adopted ,
yet a 'pmitaky feeling can bo suddenly | I
started by aconcort of action on the part '
of the people in withdrawing their do-
posits from the bank. I j
The money in the baulks does
not belong to the banks. It is
.lie people's money. It is put

safety. The batiks use it and the busi- .
men borrow it. The great share of '
tlio business of the country is done withx
borrowed money. If the people with
draw their money from tlio banks the
banks can't inako loans , and the busi
ness men , unable to borrow , go by the
boaid , and this condition of things con
tinued for any grea length of time pro
duces a panic , and then those who have

A false idea of the condition of affairs at Keys' Bros., factory seems to have crept out through a few little innocent news items that appeared in the daily papers. The firm has not suspended operations but merely turned off sixty hands. This, however, still leaves them with more hands employed than any three jobbing houses in the city. They also stopped the engines and decided not to take out any new work, on account of the dullness of business.
The Gannahaw Wheel club has made arrangements to make a century run on the 27th of this month. Sioux City will be the goal and the wheelmen will leave at 4 a.m. on the day set, hoping to cover the 100 miles in fourteen hours, the time set by the rules governing century runs. Breakfast will be taken at Missouri Valley and dinner probably at Onawa City. The boys will return to Council Bluffs on the evening train. The announcement is made this early in order to give the members of the club a chance to go in training for the run.
The neighbors of Jacob Turk, whose residence was visited by fire last Sunday night, called word to the police station last evening that he had been lying in the house all day, apparently asleep, and that they were unable to arouse him. They were afraid that something was wrong; the patrol was sent to the house, and the city physician was called to look after the man's wants. When he got there he pronounced it simply a case of too much lake water or other liquid refreshment which Turk had imbibed while at Manawa. He was moved to Kiel's hotel, and it was not thought late in the night that he would suffer any permanent effects.
The quo warranto proceedings which were instituted by J. W. Crossland some time ago for the purpose of having the motor company's charter annulled came up in superior court Monday morning for trial. The case has been doing this for the last four Mondays, according to announcement made several days in advance in each instance, but it was not until yesterday that the attorneys were all induced to come together and get ready for business. Several witnesses testified, but along toward the middle of the day the defendant's attorneys discovered that some of their witnesses were not on hand. They asked for a continuance until this morning, when the absent witnesses will be on hand and the case will be completed unless it has another setback at the hands of the attorneys.
One of the men employed in the St. Joe barn on South Main street went into the stable Sunday afternoon and found a strange man with a horse and buggy hitched up. A bale of hay was in the back part of the buggy, and when the fellow was asked what he was going to do he replied that he had just bought the hay and was going to deliver it. At the first opportunity he slipped out and did not return to get his hay. It turned out afterward that he was a tramp who thought nature's method of locomotion too laborious, and he had decided to try an easier way to get over the country on his sightseeing expedition. The stable boy turned up just at the wrong time, and the proprietor probably had one more rig than he would have had if the boy had been a few minutes later.

J. A. Roff, Agent for the Rock Island Railroad Company, Resigns.
INGRATITUDE OF ONE OF HIS PROTEGES
J. P. Curriculum, being Premier into Trouble, Short in His Account,
He Tried to Shift the Blame to the Agent.
The friends of J. A. Hoff, the well-known and popular Agent of the Hocking Valley Railroad company in this city, were considerably exercised yesterday when it was announced that a new man had taken his place in the management of the office, and that Mr. Hoff had gone to Chicago to have a personal conference with the officials of the company. Inquiry was necessarily prosecuted in all directions for a cause for the sudden change. The state of facts elicited, though somewhat vague, seems to indicate that Mr. Hoff has been unfortunate in having a careless, if not dishonest, cashier, whose errors and discrepancies have created what appears to be a shortage of several hundred dollars.
The cashier is J. I. Christiansen, a young man who has been an employee of the office for many years, and who has been shown every kindness by Mr. Hoff, rising from the position of messenger boy to that of cashier. Several weeks ago Mr. Hoff discovered that the cashier's books were in an unsatisfactory condition, and that his cash was badly out of balance. Immediately following the discovery, the cashier handed in his resignation, and it was accepted, with the provision that he should remain in the office and assist in finding what his employer believed to be simply a series of unfortunate blunders.
After his Chicago Trip.
Christiansen asked for a few days' leave and a pass to Chicago. This was granted, and it is stated that the young man went into the general offices of the company with the evident purpose of shifting the responsibility and trying to square himself, and made some covert intimations about the bad condition of the office here. The company acted quickly upon the hints dropped and sent out the traveling auditor to check up. In the meantime, Mr. Hoff had been working mightily and daily on his cashier's accounts, still in the belief that the clerk had not taken a cent of the missing money. Some things had been discovered that shook his faith slightly, but when the auditor came, Hoff vigorously defended the young man, declaring that he had perfect confidence in him.
"You have too much confidence in him," remarked the auditor. "They all claim that the shortage is only a mistake."
A thorough examination of the books showed that Christiansen was short about $750. The company was willing to compromise the matter, and Christiansen's relatives in the city were called upon to make up the amount, which was turned into the company a few days ago.
When this was settled, the company brought up another matter that had been reported by Christiansen on his Chicago visit. That was the fact that Mr. Hoff had paid the salary of one of the employees who had been granted a brief leave of absence on account of the dangerous illness of a parent. This was without loss to the company, for the other clerks and Mr. Hoff himself performed the absentee's duties by working overtime.
Mr. Hoff Resigns.
The consequent quibbling and irritation caused Mr. Hoff to telegraph his resignation to Chicago Saturday and follow it up with a personal visit Sunday evening. Yesterday the company placed Mr. George H. Denton, of Stuart, in charge of the office. Whether Mr. Hoff's resignation will be finally accepted or not is a matter of no little concern to the people of the city, who have learned to esteem him very highly. He has devoted all his time to the company's business and has succeeded in getting for the company a good deal more than its natural share of business. He has been very popular, not only among the railroad men of the city, but with all who have been brought into contact with him in any way, and his friends hope to see the difficulty straightened out and Mr. Hoff reinstated in his position.
TWO EARLY MORNING FIRES.
Butchers Stole Thirty Dollars and Hams
J. Flood's meat market at 1024 Broadway burned yesterday morning at 8:45 a.m. Mrs. Flood was awakened at that hour by a suspicious sound in the front part of the building, where the meat market is located, and after lighting a lamp went to see what was the matter. Just as she opened the door a man, who was in the market room, rushed at her and pushed her up against the wall, at the same time knocking the lamp out of her hand. It was partially extinguished and in the darkness the two thieves, who had been ransacking the building, escaped. The lamp fell into the sawdust on the floor and in a moment the place was in flames. The alarm was given and the fire department was called to extinguish the blaze. They succeeded in getting the upper hand of the fire, but not until the stock and fixtures of the market had been ruined. The flames were prevented from spreading to the back part of the building, however. An investigation showed that the thieves had been in the bedroom occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Flood before the latter had been awakened, and had taken a pocketbook containing $30 in cash out of the pocket of Mr. Flood's trousers. The money was gone, but the pocketbook lay on the floor a few feet away. The damage done by the fire is estimated at about $600, and the insurance on the stock and fixtures amounts to $1,500. It is stated, however, that there is some uncertainty as to the solvency of the company issuing the policy.
Shortly before midnight Sunday the fire department was called out to extinguish a blaze at the residence of Jacob Turk, 715 South Sixth street. All the family were out of town excepting Mr. Turk, and he was spending the evening at Mansura, It is supposed that he dropped a match on the floor before he left for the lake at 8 o'clock and that it ignited during his absence. The damage is estimated at $150 and the goods were insured for $500.

Oscar Webb, alias Baxter of all, was brought before United States Commissioner V. Hunter yesterday afternoon on the charge of being implicated in the recent robbery of the post office at Dunlap. Webb's case has been pending for a number of weeks past, and during that time he and his attorney, John Lind, have been preparing a stubborn fight, which resulted in his discharge yesterday.
The accused had no sooner gotten himself out of one scrape, however, than he found himself in another. Officer Murphy was in the room, primed with a warrant for Webb's arrest on the charge of robbing Mrs. John Mutchel of about $2,000 worth of diamonds at her country villa, about two miles past of the city a little over three years ago. As soon as the commissioner had pronounced Webb free, Murphy stopped up and placed him under arrest, Lind came to the foreground and ordered Murphy to release his man, stating that it was unlawful for state or city authorities to come on federal ground to make an arrest. The district attorney, Lyon Miles of Corydon, happened to be present, however, and came to Murphy's relief by informing him that in making the grant to the government to erect its building on the lot at the corner of Broadway and Sixth street it had reserved the right for its officials to make any necessary arrests on the government premises. That squelched Lind's bluff and Murphy left with his man in tow, who was subsequently lodged in the county jail.
Colonel Fort, the Union Pacific land agent at North Platte, came to Council Bluffs a few days ago to satisfy numerous inquirers who wanted to know positively whether or not the Perpetual Maturity Bonding company was what it claimed to be, a thoroughly legitimate and responsible organization. Mr. Fort was acting for others, and made a much more careful inquiry than if he had been seeking to satisfy himself. Every facility was given him to make a thorough and intelligent inquiry, and he took a whole day to do it. The result was that he was thoroughly satisfied that it was a good thing, that he invested in a bond and carried a very favorable report back home. This is the result of every careful and intelligent inquiry.

Another spasm of generosity took the Union Pacific Railway company at a point of disadvantage yesterday, and caused the company to add $500 to the amount of $8,100 which it tendered the county treasurer the other day in payment of its taxes for the year 1893. The beautiful pile of greenbacks was fished out from the company's strong box and the tempting sight was exhibited to the hungry-eyed treasurer once more, but, as before, he refused to accept it. Just what the motive of the railway company is in thus endeavoring to play a joke on the county it is hard to see, but it is suspected that the company is leading up, little by little, to a pure and simple "duff," which will be exhibited on or before August 11.

PEPPERING HIGHWAYMEN.
A Fort Scott citizen (whose ideas on Train Robbery are worth considering) has given these ideas to the Missouri, Kansas & Texas railroad in the hope that it might make an experiment along the line of the ideas advanced. The letter is out of the ordinary, and with a view of making known the advantages of the system of train robber warfare contained in the letter the Missouri, Kansas & Texas has consented to its publication. It reads:
To The General Manager of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad: Dear Sir,
Some weeks since I was a passenger on one of your trains with a ticket from Fort Scott to Houston. We took supper at Vicksburg and were held up an hour later at Priors Creek station. Therefore, this letter. From the commencement to the end I took considerable interest in the proceedings. I observed that few exhibited fear, the dominant sensation being curiosity. I observed that the robbers were not only poorly organized, but had more or less apprehension about results to themselves, the followers at our cars continually crying to these in front: "Well, ain't you about through up there?" and "For Christ's sake, won't you ever get through up there?" and "What in hell are you fellows doing up there?" and so on all through the "job." I observed that the first shot fired by the express messenger put out all the lights in the car (this on his statement). Now, my observation leads me to the conclusion that if your company will run a 24-inch strip of boiler iron around the bodies just below the windows of your cars, put four or five Winchesters in each corner just above the windows in glass-covered boxes just as you do axes and saws, marked "For Engineers," post up notices in each car offering a reward, in advance, of say $100 or $150 a piece for "fresh dead train robbers," I think you will see the meekness and apathy of the ordinary to-be-robbed passenger disappear and the American public will take care not only of itself, but of any stray robbers "caught in the act" along the line of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas.
The average traveling American thinks he has been robbed enough by the time the railroad and the sleeper company have both had a whack at him, and if you have any fear of his being the indirect cause of noncombatants (women and children) being hurt in the shuffling (by using the boiler iron) put the weapon in his hand and the majority of him will act on his "man." Add the more mercenary and, perhaps, more desperate fellows, who would be delighted to kill a train robber and make a hundred or two, and you will have ample protection on every train. Why, I would not be much surprised to learn that many train robbers had "quit the road" and gone gunning for their erstwhile comrades. Hoping there may be something now to you in my suggestions, and assuring you that it does make a man mad to be robbed, and believing that with a fair chance any man will fight, I remain yours, etc.

A Distant Relative.
Harper's Bazaar: "You may remember that I have spoken of my cousin Potter who lives in Chicago," remarked Mr. Trotter. "His father was my grandfather's half-brother."
"Not very near," remarked his wife.
"No-o, not very near, but living in Chicago during the World's Fair," replied Trotter.
"Oh, Tom! Why, of course!" cried Mrs. Trotter, with much enthusiasm. "Have you written to him?"
"Yes; we've been in correspondence for six months just proving our relationship, you know. I hoped that he might invite us out there."
"Have you written?"
"Of course I have," sighed Trotter. "Do you suppose we corresponded for six months by telegraph?"
"I mean, has he sent us an invitation?"
"Yes, that is, he sent me one," replied Trotter.
"Which means, has he forgotten me? Of course, you're not going?"
"Going to what? To accept his invitation to Chicago."
"Maria," rejoined Mr. Trotter, "the two are by no means the same. He has not invited me to Chicago. I got a letter from him last night 'inviting' me to lend him $1000."
"Well, are you going to?"
"To what, my dear? Please be explicit."
"To lend him the money to go to Chicago with ourselves. Peter has proved himself to be too distant a relative, my love."

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Proceedings of the City Council Meeting Held Last Evening.
CAPACITY OF STEWARDS INCREASED
Complaints Made for Repair of Street
Thirteenth Monthly Meeting;
Honorable Stock Exchange Meeting in Anglo City veri:
All the members of the South Omaha city council were in their seats before 8 o'clock last night. The council took steps to have necessary repairs made at the police station. When the council first convened they sat as a board of equalization, but as there were no complaints lodged the meeting was soon adjourned and the routine work of the council was taken up.
The street commissioner was instructed to repair the sidewalks on the west side of Twenty-eighth between H and S streets and the north side of 11 between Thirty-first and Thirty-second streets.
Mr. Wyman Introduced a resolution preventing the asphalt company from working at night on account of the smell. This company has been working a night gang in order to complete the job inside of a limited period, but they were granted official days further time, and by so doing the job can be finished by day work.
An ordinance establishing grade on J Street between Twenty-second and Twenty-fifth streets passed.
Frank Preston asked for $200 damages on account of the washing out of the roadway wall at the police station. Referred to the committee on streets and alleys, and the city attorney.
Officer Argabright was granted three days leave of absence.
Twenty-five dollars and thirty cents was taxed against the property at No. 10 Twenty-sixth Street for repairs to sidewalk.
The committee on public buildings was given authority to make needed repairs at the city jail.
An ordinance to grade the alley between Twenty-third and Twenty-fourth streets and J Street was passed.
Another batch of ordinances repealing old ordinances to give room for new ones that are being compiled by the city attorney passed.
The old ordinances are being repealed on account of their conflicting with other laws, not having a penalty attached, not having published the full time, and other reasons.
The sum of $HK was appropriated for the cleaning off of Railroad Avenue.
On motion of Wyman, the city clerk was instructed to notify the streetcar company to place a crossing where the track crosses the street in Albright.
The city attorney was instructed to draft an ordinance grading Thirty-second, Thirty-fourth and Thirty-sixth streets and alleys south of H Street and north of the Elkhorn tracks. This land is desired by the North Western railroad and will be used for switch yards, turntables, etc.
City Treasurer Hector made his monthly statement. It shows among other things: Total overdrafts in June, $10,231; balance on hand June 1, $15,854.25; total receipts in June, $26,883.65; total disbursements, $17,803.50; balance on hand July 1, $8,939.50; paid out in July, $37,000; balance on hand July 31, $11,939.50.
The council then went into executive session.
Increasing the Capacity.
The work of placing the big sewer in the stockyards is now almost completed. The old pens that have been torn out south of the Exchange building will be replaced with new material at once and by the time the big run of westerns begins this fall and summer the capacity of the yards will be greater than ever before, Manager Babcock in speaking of the matter said: "Inside of ten days the pens and chutes will be ready for business, and the capacity of the yards will be increased over 10,000 cubic feet, or 25 percent over the corresponding time last year.
Twenty new chutes are about ready and two chute gangs are being worked, one in the old and the other in the new division. This with the additional motive power will insure shippers against delay whatever in these yards.
"The new pens are of the latest construction, paved partly with brick and partly with plank, provided with ample water and sewer facilities and conveniently located. A new scale house, making seven in all in the yards, will be at once erected and by the time the western cattle begin coming forward in large numbers the facilities for handling them will be complete in every particular. Any ordinary large run can easily be taken care of now. The old division has been completely demolished and the ground graded up fully fifteen feet at the lowest point. The new ground will be allowed to settle some and early in the fall or sooner if necessary it will be built up in hog and cattle pens, further increasing the already ample capacity of the yards."
Twenty-five Dollars All Around.
Police Judge Fowler went at his work yesterday morning with an unusual amount of vigor. Mayor Walker was an interested spectator, as he had run in a man on Saturday night for swiping a $5 cent shirt from in front of the Boston store. After the mayor placed his man under arrest the fellow resisted, and for the resistance and theft he was fined $2 and costs. John Martin is the name he gave. His accomplice, James Flynn, who was arrested at the same time, was given the same dose.
H. Harrington was found about midnight creating a disturbance on N Street. When Officer Mitchell attempted to arrest him he showed resistance and the policeman was compelled to take a fall or two out of Harrington before he would submit to arrest. He is a cowboy from Texas and aspires to be a "bad man." His fine was $5 and costs.
Gus Anderson, an old citizen who has given the police considerable trouble when drunk, was up this morning for beating his wife and frightening his family out of the house. Gus opened his eyes for several inches when the judge also gave him a $5 assessment.
Gus Sker was reeling along N Street filled with oil of gladness when he discovered Truett's fruit stand. He helped himself to some fruit for which he refused to pay Truett and now he will have to pay the police judge in order to secure his freedom.
Charles Cotten was fined $5 for disorderly conduct.
Joe Sadler and M. Sloser were fined $2.50 each for assaulting M. Wolfson, the peddler.
Full Disclosure of Police.
The police of the Third Ward will be stationed as follows for the month of August:
Day Force: Hanson, from Twenty-fifth to Twenty-sixth Street; Over Thirteenth, from Twentieth to Twenty-third and from M to O streets; James Emorick, from Twenty-second to Thirty-sixth and from L to Schuman streets; John Hyde, from Twenty-fourth to Twenty-eighth and O to Wyman; Thomas Eminger, Albright and Brown park, half a day; O. H, Thomas), from O to L and from Twenty-sixth to Fortieth Street in the Fourth Ward, half a day; Miles Mitchell, detective.
Night Force: James Austin, captain; Lewis Miller, from Twenty-sixth to Twenty-seventh and L to Q and jail; J. A. Larson, from Twenty-fourth to Twenty-eighth and J to O streets; William Armstrong, from Twentieth to Twenty-eighth and O to Wyman; and Kreuger, Twenty-eighth to Thirty-sixth and L to Hoffman; Thomas Eminger, Albright and Brown park, half the night.
This order of the chief of police goes into effect tomorrow at noon.
Signing Fowler Held the Unity, Police Judge Fowler held Mrs. Francisco's baby in his arms while the mother signed a complaint accusing George Bless of stealing $300 of her hard earned cash.
Although the robbery was committed last Thursday the woman did not report her loss to the police until last evening. Mrs. Francisco keeps a boarding house in the vicinity of Twenty-seventh and H streets. Bless boarded with her and was considered to be an honest and hardworking fellow. As soon as Mrs. Francisco discovered her loss Bless disappeared and has not been to the house since. The money was still in the mattress of the bed where Francisco and her husband slept.
ollow was seen in Omaha yesterday, and as soon as the Omaha police have been notified, he may be caught.
Aerial Romance for the Stork.
The new maximum rate bill was to have gone into effect today and the Missouri Pacific company had arranged with the Stock Yards company to do its weighing temporarily. The other roads have recently placed electric scales in their yards and were all ready to comply with the new law when the H. & M. secured the injunction.
As a consequence stock will, for a while at least, be shipped under the old rule of so much per car, and will not be weighed out as was anticipated.
High Company.
Dumas Gratiot has gone to Chicago to visit the fair for a week.
The Methodist Sunday school picnic takes place at Hascouet park next Thursday.
Charles Howe's little son fell from a motor car and was painfully injured yesterday.
Mrs. K. O. Mynlleld and daughter Mabel are home from a visit with friends in Alva.
Fred Moore caught a catfish in the river yesterday that weighed sixty-four pounds.
Frank M. Castetter, manager of the Castetter bank of El Paso, was in the city yesterday.
Dr. Solomon reports a case of diphtheria in a brick flat on Twenty-fourth between H and S streets.
The special police appointed by Mayor Walker on account of the threatened trouble with the switchmen were withdrawn Saturday night.
Justice T. Gray has pushed the prosecution against Robert O'Neill, and will be on hand in the county court at Plattsmouth on Friday at 1 o'clock to appear for Max Herschman.
Herschman is the man who claims that O'Neill assaulted him at the latter's farm and that he also set his dog on him. The charge is assault with intent to do great bodily injury.

THE BAGGAGE SMASHER.
This old Choctaw little Styles Oculist! ) ) of the Middle AGENCY Citizen.
"I look in vain in the literature of the day," said a middle-aged man to the New York Sun, "for stories of the baggage smasher, such as were current thirty or forty years ago, which used to interest me very much. Who that is old enough cannot recall the story of the circus man's trunks, it will be remembered, had been at one time and another pretty roughly handled, and so one day he got a rather flimsy trunk and put in it a boa constrictor twenty-two feet long, and he marked on the outside of the trunk: 'Don't break! Boa constrictor inside.' " 'Oh, I've just been waiting for someone to ship a boa constrictor by this line,' said the baggage smasher, and he grabbed the trunk by one of its handles, intending to toss it over his head, but he yanked with such sudden energy that he pulled the handle off. Then he kicked the trunk over, the other end up and grabbed it by the other handle, lifted it and dropped it and smashed it wide open, and there was a snake in it, and the snake came out and uncoiled himself, and when he coiled himself up again he was around the baggage master, and the baggage master never checked any baggage after that.
"Another story told of the tribulations of a traveler whose trunks had been smashed and how finally he filled a big trunk with dynamite and 'marked 'Handle with care! Dynamite!' " 'Dynamite!' said the baggage master, with fine scorn, and he pulled the trunk down from the top of a high pile and let it fall on one corner and it never returned.
"Then there was the story about the angered traveler who placed upon the corners of his trunk patches, of some material so elastic and springy that if you dropped the trunk hard it bounded into the air thousands of feet. This trunk came to the station on the summit of a great load of trunks, and the baggage master seized it by the handle, braced one foot against the load and pulled the trunk off and let it fall on one corner and it never came back.
"And the owner sued and recovered for the loss of his trunk.
"It might not be easy in a paragraph conclusively to assign reasons for the decline of the trunk story. Certainly the baggage master is as powerful as ever, and surely he cannot have lost in the comparatively brief period of thirty or forty years that keen sense of humor that once prompted him playfully to drop a trunk and break it wide open. It seems more probable that he has shared with the rest of mankind in that steadily advancing refinement of methods which has marked our progress in recent years; that he is not less humorous, but only less boisterous than he was; and it may be, too, that the fact that trunks generally are made stronger than they were has had something to do with it." *Piles of people try piles, but Witt's Witch Hazel Salve will cure them.

ART WORK ON GLASS.
A Novelty of Interest to All Students of Decoration.
The craze for decoration has of late years taxed to the utmost the ingenuity of the designers and inventors to satisfy the demand for novelties. In most every household may be found one or more members, who, while they have neither the talent nor patience, nor possess the time, to learn painting, are eager to soil upon any sort of decorative work that promises good results with a small outlay of trouble. To meet the demands of this class numerous new ideas have been given to the public, says the Philadelphia Record. Among them may be mentioned silken, which is a method of imitating stained glass, and, while it is really decorative, is so easily done that the veriest tyro may undertake it with confidence. It does not make any pretensions to rival stained glass, but it is far preferable to any other imitation.
The expense is small, as no cutting, firing or leading is necessary. A plain sheet of glass is simply treated as in a watercolor drawing, the design being sketched and the colors laid on. Ordinary sheet or plate glass is used, and if this is washed over with silicone, which is really the medium used to mix the colors, a semblance to the glass used in old windows can be more nearly maintained. If a semitransparent effect should be desired, use ground glass, although wavy glass may be effectively applied in staircase windows, panels for hall doors, screens, etc. The glass must be perfectly clean before the work is begun; dust upon its surface will cause spots to appear in the finished work.
The design, being first drawn on paper, may be readily transferred by placing the glass over it and tracing the outline with pencil and ink. A little ox gall added to the ink will make it flow freely. If leadings are to be imitated (and they should be in all cases, as they greatly enhance the effect), these outlines may be put in broadly. In this case all the coloring should be done on the side on which the leadings are drawn, otherwise the painting will be done on the reverse side from the drawing, and when the painting is somewhat advanced the ink lines are washed off.
The colors are especially prepared for the purpose; are translucent, and are rendered permanent by the admixture of oil. They are quite different from ordinary colors; and while they may be freely mixed together, no other sort may be mixed with them. Linseed oil may be found useful to prevent the colors drying too quickly. When the drawing is done the glass is placed in a setting position, with a sheet of white or light-colored paper on the table beneath. The table should be so placed that the worker may face the light. The brush is usually employed for softening tint, as in china painting, and is better than any tool yet devised for the purpose. Should any part of the painting appear dull when dry, a coat of pure silicone applied with a camel's hair brush will restore brilliance.
To produce an intense tint of the same color, over-painting may be resorted to; if it is desirable to vary it, a wash with some other color may be applied. A brilliant red is obtained by painting with rose-color or scarlet over yellow; rose over blue or blue over yellow will give a strength of tint. It is also advisable to add a little rose-color to the shade color, which can be purchased already prepared for use.
Stippling will smooth a wall which appears rough. White is imitated by applying the pure silicone thinly with the finger, and high lights are picked out with a penknife or pointed stick. Should corrections be necessary, the error may be washed out with turpentine or alcohol. The imitation leadings are improved by covering them with dull silver bronze. When the painting is completely dry, an oven wash of pure silicone is given it as a preservative, it must be applied in one wash and should not be repeated.
In fixing the painting in position, it is reversed and put into the sash with thin bits of wood between it and the window proper to prevent the two panes coming in contact. Brushes should be cleansed with turpentine if they become clogged. If leftover paint in the brushes, it will be made to disappear.
There is a good deal in the proper selection of a design. It should not only fit the work, but fit the position for which it is intended. A coat-of-arms is suited to a staircase or hall, historical subjects or portrait heads to the library, conventional floral forms to dining rooms or chambers. Realistic flowers or landscapes are sadly out of place in either real or imitation stained glass. Heraldic designs are undoubtedly the easiest of execution, being largely geometrical in construction. In painting portraits, the leading, of course, appears only in the background and border. This border may be of an even width all around to represent a frame, or it may be of any form desired, always keeping the ruling proportion in mind. A common fancy is to make the border of small squares, divided by leads, with a variety of designs upon them. Thus, the four corner squares are alike, and those at the center of top and bottom and on either side alike; these that intervene may all be of different designs.

FINANCIAL DON'TS
Cautions of Gold Advice for Timid People.
Don't take your money out of the bank and bury it, says the Clinton Argus. Skunks or squirrels or dogs will dig it up and destroy it. Don't put it in your stockings because you can put your stockings to better use by wearing them. Don't wrap it up in an old newspaper or an old rag and hide it in some corner, because the rats will surely get hold of it and help you hide it so effectively that you can never find it. The house is no place for your money anyway. Burglars get it and carry it off and then you lament your foolishness in taking it out of the bank. If you don't want to invest your money, let it stay in the bank if it is there. If it is not there, don't lose any time in putting it there. All this drawing money out of the bank and hoarding it contracts the currency and produces a stringency in the money market. The times may be the best imaginable and all the wise legislation conceivable adopted, yet a panic feeling can be suddenly started by a concert of action on the part of the people in withdrawing their deposits from the bank.
The money in the banks does not belong to the banks. It is the people's money. It is put in the banks for convenience and safety. The banks use it and the businessmen borrow it. The great share of the business of the country is done with borrowed money. If the people withdraw their money from the banks, the banks can't make loans, and the businessmen, unable to borrow, go by the board, and this condition of things continued for any great length of time produces a panic, and then those who have drawn their money out of the banks, and in reality produced the panic, will find they are the first to suffer.
If you have any money you are not using, put it in the bank.

The Editor Who Upturned Him.
This week I noticed the testimony of the Hon. J. Burroughs, MD, of Detroit, Michigan. Dr. Burroughs has been on staff at the Metropolitan church since 1910 and is well known all over the country. In 1918 his inflammatory team, then the Room and Doll model, extended from Boston to Port Prince and took in fourteen appointments. Dr. Burroughs insists in speaking for the testimonial that the capsules he developed have "cured more skin conditions than any other in the world."
"From my own personal experience, I can testify to the skill. I am often summoned and periodically host to my own cases and it is a pleasure to recommend such skillful and courteous attention."
REV. HILTON J. HUTCHINSON,
From my own personal experience, I can testify to the skill. I am often summoned and periodically host to my own cases and it is a pleasure to recommend such skillful and courteous attention."
REV. HILTON J. HUTCHINSON,
"There is no way I can describe my cure so that it can be published, but I should like to have others know my experience," said Mrs. G.V. Link, of Livonia on East Street near Burnay, and wife of the well-known mirthful character. "My case was not so bad that I had little faith in the ability of doctors to cure me, but I have relied wonderingly upon Dr. King's truly miraculous treatment. I could never recollect for a shortness of breath nor the obstruction of the throat that afflicted me for years. From ulcers formed in my throat, my breath became furnace-like and my color very bad. My friends said I was in the early stages of consumption, and I believe this would have been my fate if I had not received the help I needed, The benefits I feel from the work of Dr. King have surpassed all my expectations. After a thorough treatment, I am now perfectly well and perform health fully. It is plainly in sight. I hope everyone will give Drs. King, Copeley, and Shepard a trial, and I am sure they will like them as I do, that they are the only doctors for chronic diseases."

171K niMKTAUM 1KAOVK CONVEXI
HON.
The convention of the American Bi-
motalllo longuo which will moot In Chi0
cngo totlny will ho largely attended and
will command the attention not only of
thu American people , butof all countries
Interested In the sllvor question. It
would bo uetos t to pretend that thla
convention Is not important or that It
will not exert an Inlluonco. Tholoaguo
represents a very largo number of the
American people and there are enrolled -
rolled In It uniny able mon , not
all of whom can fairly bo charged
with advocating the cause of silver -
vor from motives more or loss
wolfish. Uoproscntlng a very extensive
nnd widely distributed constituency , the
action of the convention cannot fall to
cxort an Inlluonco. Ono tendency It may
reasonably bo expected to have Is that
of encouraging the advocates of free
Ilvnr in congress nnd holding them
Irmly up to the conflict that awaits
hem.
So far as the declarations of the .con-
' are concerned it Is easy to fore-
ell what they will bo. They willoppoao
ho unconditional repeal of the silver
mrclmso clause of the Sherman
act ; they will insist that the
only true solution of the currency
n'oblein is to bo found in "tho
'ostorntion of silver to an equal stand *
ng with gold In the mints of- the coun-
, ry ; they will denounce the legislation
) f 187. ! and assert that the present move
ment against silver Is a conspiracy of
; ho money power ngainst the people ;
they will clnlm that it ia the constitu-
, lonal duty of the government to recog-
nb.o sllvor on equal terms with gold ;
they will alllrm that the utilization of
silver to the fullest extent in the cur-
ency is desirable in order to supply the
circulation necessary to do the business of
the country ; they will say that if silver
Is ignored tho-olTect will bo to still
ftirtlier lower the price of wheat
uid other agricultural products ,
to the serious injury of the farmers of
the country ; they will demand that the
ratio between gold and silver bo con
tinued as at present ; and they will urge
that the American people should Imvo a
currency system of their own regardless
of other nations and particularly of
Britain.
It la entirely Bafo to predict that these
will bo the salient features of the plat
form , which the convention of the Bi
metallic league will adopt and of the
address which it is expeuted to send out
to the country. The American
pcoplo are already familiar with
every statement , assertion and claim
which this convention is likely to make.
The advocates of silver have nothing
new to olTor in defense of their cause ,
and they are confronted by conditions
which confute most of their arguments.
All expedients to clovato silver to a
parity with gold at the old ratio have
failed , and the intelligent and unpreju
diced judgment of the country now de
mands that no further attempt bo made
by legislation to bring the two motah
to such an equality. Under existing law
the government has for three years pur
chased the silver product of this coun
try , and still the price has declined.
Thp treasury is glutted with silver which
cannot bo made to circulate because the
people do not want it. To continue pur
chasing silver would inevitably result in
depleting the country of gold nnd in de
preciating the whole body of the remain
ing currency. To make the coinage of
silver free would bo to force upon the
people an inferior dollar for the , solo
benefit of the silver producers , who
have no right to such special considera
tion on the part of the government. No
ono proposes the total abandonment of
sllvor. It will continue to do service as
currency , us it has done since
the beginning of the govern
ment , but under changed con
ditions from these which have pre
vailed for the past fifteen years. A ma
jority 'of the American pcoplo have
made up their minds to this as being ab
solutely essential to the maintenance of
t ; soutfd and stable currency and the
preservation of the public credit. Wo
do not apprehend that anything which
the convention at Chicago may do or
say will materially alTcet this decision.
The work to bo done * * by the convention
is already largely discounted.
iMKS ur TUB LAD :
The maximum freight rnto law , known
as "an act to regulate railroads , to
classify freights , to lix reasonable maxi
mum rates to bo charged for the trans
portation of freights upon each of the
railroads in the stutoof Nebraska and to
provide penalties for the violation of
this net , " goes into effect today. Nomi
nally it goes into oflect nnd attains a
pluco upon the statute book ; in reality
Its provisions have for the time being
boon shorn of all power , and no visible
change will bo accomplished by the con
summation of that much contested piece
of legislation. JJut tlio law exists. As
yet its constitutionality has not been
prejudiced , in Hplto of the temporary in
junction which prevents the enforce
ment of its provisions.
"Every statute , " said the late Chief
Justice Wulto , "is presumed to bo con-
stittitloiml. The courts ought not
to declare ono to bo unconsti
tutional unless it is clearly so.
If there is any doubt , the expressed
will of the legislature should bo main
tained. " The constitution of Nebraska
expressly confers upon the logisluturo
the power to "from time to time pass
laws establishing reasonable maximum
rates of charge for the transportation of
passengers and freight on the different
railroads in this stuto. " The oxcroiso
of this power need not necessarily bo re
pugnant to the constitution of the
United States and if the legislature has
succeeded in passing an act conbonant
with that constitution the law will utand
although the executive olllcors may bo
temporarily enjoined from enforcing its
penalties. The act remains law until
declared to bo void. Every shipper has
n right to damages resulting from Its
violation , which right may posslblybo
suspended , but cannot bo destroyed so
long us the law is really a constitutional
exoroitto of legislative power. In test
ing its validity by injunclon the rail
ways lay thembolvos liable to an accumu
lation of damage suits in case the in
junction it * finally dissolved.
In /ucautluio , whut rates are now
In I force upon Nebraska railways ? It Is
not so long ago that notice \M given to
the t StfttoUonrd of Transportation that
nil existing tariffs would cease on August
1. j Since that tltno no further notice has
boon \ given as demanded by law that any
other rates than these in-cscribcd In the
maximum freight rate law were to
supplant them. The Injunction proceed
ings j forbid the railway ofllclals to make ,
establish or post n schedule of rates under
the < terms of that law and leaves them In a
peculiar j predicament. They will , of
course , continue to make the RUIHO
charges that are now in force , but thcso
charges have boon declared by the logls-
Inturo ] to bo unreasonable and unjust.
It j comes to this them that \vo have a
law ] upon our statute book which pro
scribes the maximum rates to bo charged
for the transportation of freight bo-
twcon points within this state. Wo
have the enforcement of this law tem
porarily enjoined by order of a federal
court. We have the railways exacting
charges without a legal tarilf. Tn n
word , wo have a living law without the
means of securing its immediate observ
ance.
CIMTUHK IA' Tim HOUSE.
Those who remember the storm of
denunciation which the democrats
showered upon the rules of the Fifty-
first congress , framed to allow the will
of the majority to prevail , and the ubtiBO
with which they persistently pursued
Speaker Rood , will bo interested in the
fact that the democrats who sup
port the financial policy of the
administration now propose the adop
tion of similar rules by the Fifty-third
congress in order to prevent the defeat
of that policy. The democratic major
ity of the last house of representatives
promptly wont back to the old
method , this being necessary to save
the party from stultification , but the re
sults were not altogether satisfactory.
Democrats themselves abused the pre
rogatives , the denial of which they had
so rigorously denounced in the preced
ing congress. Tno redoubtable Kilgoro
of Texas and others brought ridicule
and humiliation on the party by the free
use of filibustering tactics to defeat
measures objectionable to them , although
of democratic origin. Numerous object
lessons were furnished in the house of
the lait congress in vindication of the
gag rules" which enabled n republican
house to make ono of the most notable
records of legislative work in the his
tory of congress.
Possibly if the present exigency
could have been foreseen the Fifty-
second congress would not have
"boon so ready to rebuke its prede
cessor in the matter of the rules , but it
was not. As soon , however , as it be
came known that a democratic adminis
tration and congress would have to deal
with the silver question and the policy
of the administration was declared , these
in sympathy with that policy announced
that the only hope of its success was in
a change of the rules that would
put an ollcotlve check upon fili
bustering. At first it was
proposed simply to apply to "cloture , "
which would bo but ono feature , though
n quite important ono , of the tules of
the last republican house. It is proba
ble that tfiis did not go far enough to
satisfy the administration , but at any
rate the further consideration of the
matter seems to have led to the con
clusion that a radical change from the
rules of the last house will be necessary
in order to prevent a protracted battle
over silver. Mr. Crisp is reported to
have admitted that if congress is
to bo controlled and filibustering
prevented , rules practically similar
to these hitherto condemned would
bo absolutely necessary. Mr.
Cockran of New York , who will bo a
very conspicuous figure in this congress ,
is said to bo of the sumo opinion , believ
ing that it is bettor to be inconsistent
and to pay tribute to the parliamentary
genius and skill of the last republican
speaker than to allow "tho respectable
element of the democratic party to be
controlled by a rabble. " If this distin
guished representative of Tammany is
correctly reported ho is prepared to go
even further than the Reed rules went
in order to insure the success of the ad
ministration's financial policy.
The indications nro that ox-Speaker
Reed will have the gratification of see
ing practically the same rules which
brought upon him unstinted democratic
ubusp adopted by a democratic house ,
nnd these who know anything of his
nature can understand how ho would
enjoy and appreciate such a vindication.
Republican votes will probably bo required
quired , however , to olToct the doslrod
change , and it remains to bo soon what
view the minority party in the house
will tuko of their duty in the matter.
It is doubtless safe to predict that they
will bo found standing by the parliamentary
montary record they have made.
ACCOHDINO to Washington advices
Speaker Crisp docs not intend to announce
nounco the composition of the commit
tees In the lower house of the coining
congress until two weeks after it has
convened , no bases his action in thi
respect upon a desire to consult with
the various members of congress in
order to ascertain what positions they
may prefer. To purmio 11 course as thus
outlined savors greatly of imposing on
long buffering pooplo. Judga Crisp has
expected to bo re-oloctod speaker fron
the ( iiiio of the democratic victory las
fall. Ho lias had ample time to soloc
his committees and could have Kocuroi
from the various congressmen an ox
proasion of their desired months ago
Ho knows nnd has always known tha
congress cannot do active work withou
its committees , yet he proposes to act in
the matter just as if ha were making up
the list for the first time. A spajikor
who is ro-oloctcd has no excuse for delaying
laying the announcement of committee
for a uiuglp day.
Mil. JAMES M. GILLAN today assumes
charge of the position of secretary to th
Board of Education , to which ho was re
cently elected. Mr. Glllun'n fumiliurit ;
with thoulTulrs of the board gained by flv
year's oxiHirlenco In reporting its meetings -
ings for the local press enabled him to
ussumo the duties devolving upon him
without the preliminary schooling
which woufd bo nocrusary for a man entirely
tirely unacquainted with the work. Ho
hn.i Imd the faculty of. holding up to the
public pizo the vdvlons actions of the
dllTorent members of the board without
Antagonizing any ono of thorn and this
flvos promise of his nbllty to continue
n harmony with % PQ whoso co-opera
Ion ho will require. Wo do not hesitate
o assure the board that It will not bo
llsappolntcd In Its niMtf secretary.
IT It au Interesting fact that the finan
cial disturbance in th'o United States
conis not to have pWituccd the slightest
effect in Canada. 'No ' Canadian bank
loposltor has had the" faintest grounder
or suspecting that ho might at some
uturo tlmo be paid in any coin or cur-
cncy not equal to gold. Neither has
any capitalist feared that loans would
) o scaled or endangered by changes In
.ho legal standard of values. There-
'ore ' Canada has been comparatively
'roe from distrust nnd the Industrial
stagnation which lack of confidence be-
jots. In every department of material
dovolopnionl this country has long out
stripped the Dominion nnd boon bettor
prepared nnd strengthened for hard
tlinos. Yet wo llnd Canada moving
along In its wonted course , while the
United States are under a cloud of finan
cial distrust and'business depression.
Of course the obvious explanation is in
the bettor money system of our northern
neighbors nnd the object lessen is ono
which may very properly bo commended
to the attention of the people who are
demanding that this country shall go
further along the " "mistaken road on
which it has boon traveling for some
years. The Canadian people may claim
superiority to us in at least one respect
there is no question as to the sound
ness of their monetary system.

E.B. Burgwar, Editor.
It is entirely safe to predict that these will be the salient features of the platform, which the convention of the Bimetallic league will adopt and of the address which it is expected to send out to the country. The American people are already familiar with every statement, assertion, and claim which this convention is likely to make. The advocates of silver have nothing new to offer in defense of their cause, and they are confronted by conditions which confute most of their arguments. All expedients to clarify silver to a parity with gold at the old ratio have failed, and the intelligent and unbiased judgment of the country now demands that no further attempt be made by legislation to bring the two metals to such an equality. Under existing law, the government has for three years purchased the silver product of this country, and still the price has declined. The treasury is glutted with silver which cannot be made to circulate because the people do not want it. To continue purchasing silver would inevitably result in depleting the country of gold and in depreciating the whole body of the remaining currency. To make the coinage of silver free would be to force upon the people an inferior dollar for the sole benefit of the silver producers, who have no right to such special consideration on the part of the government. No one proposes the total abandonment of silver. It will continue to do service as currency, as it has done since the beginning of the government, but under changed conditions from those which have prevailed for the past fifteen years. A majority of the American people have made up their minds to this as being absolutely essential to the maintenance of a sound and stable currency and the preservation of the public credit. We do not apprehend that anything which the convention at Chicago may do or say will materially affect this decision. The work to be done by the convention is already largely discounted.
In REACH:
The maximum freight rate law, known as "an act to regulate railroads, to classify freights, to fix reasonable maximum rates to be charged for the transportation of freights upon each of the railroads in the state of Nebraska, and to provide penalties for the violation of this act," goes into effect today. Nominally it goes into effect and attains a place upon the statute book; in reality, its provisions have for the time being been shorn of all power, and no visible change will be accomplished by the consummation of that much-contested piece of legislation. But the law exists. As yet, its constitutionality has not been prejudiced, in spite of the temporary injunction which prevents the enforcement of its provisions.
"Every statute," said the late Chief Justice Waite, "is presumed to be constitutional. The courts ought not to declare one to be unconstitutional unless it is clearly so. If there is any doubt, the expressed will of the legislature should be maintained." The constitution of Nebraska expressly confers upon the legislature the power to "from time to time pass laws establishing reasonable maximum rates of charge for the transportation of passengers and freight on the different railroads in this state." The exercise of this power need not necessarily be repugnant to the constitution of the United States and if the legislature has succeeded in passing an act conformant with that constitution, the law will stand although the executive officers may be temporarily enjoined from enforcing its penalties. The act remains law until declared to be void. Every shipper has a right to damages resulting from its violation, which right may possibly be suspended, but cannot be destroyed so long as the law is really a constitutional exercise of legislative power. In testing its validity by injunction, the railroads lay themselves open to an accumulation of damage suits in case the injunction is finally dissolved.
In consequence, what rates are now in force upon Nebraska railways? It is not so long ago that notice was given to the Interstate Commerce Commission that all existing tariffs would cease on August 1. Since that time no further notice has been given as demanded by law that any other rates than these prescribed in the maximum freight rate law were to supplant them. The injunction proceedings forbid the railroad officials to make, establish, or post a schedule of rates under the terms of that law and leaves them in a peculiar predicament. They will, of course, continue to make the charges that are now in force, but these charges have been declared by the legislature to be unreasonable and unjust. It comes to this, then, that we have a law upon our statute book which prescribes the maximum rates to be charged for the transportation of freight between points within this state. We have the enforcement of this law temporarily enjoined by order of a federal court. We have the railroads exacting charges without a legal tariff. In a word, we have a living law without the means of securing its immediate observance.
In THE HOUSE:
Those who remember the storm of denunciation which the democrats showered upon the rules of the Fifty-first congress, framed to allow the will of the majority to prevail, and the abuse with which they persistently pursued Speaker Reed, will be interested in the fact that the democrats who support the financial policy of the administration now propose the adoption of similar rules by the Fifty-third congress in order to prevent the defeat of that policy. The democratic majority of the last house of representatives promptly went back to the old method, this being necessary to save the party from stultification, but the results were not altogether satisfactory. Democrats themselves abused the privileges, the denial of which they had so rigorously denounced in the preceding congress. The redoubtable Kilgore of Texas and others brought ridicule and humiliation on the party by the free use of filibustering tactics to defeat measures objectionable to them, although of democratic origin. Numerous object lessons were furnished in the house of the last congress in vindication of the "gag rules" which enabled a Republican house to make one of the most notable records of legislative work in the history of congress.
Possibly if the present exigency could have been foreseen, the Fifty-second congress would not have been so ready to rebuke its predecessor in the matter of the rules, but it was not. As soon, however, as it became known that a democratic administration and congress would have to deal with the silver question and the policy of the administration was declared, these in sympathy with that policy announced that the only hope of its success was in a change of the rules that would put an effective check upon filibustering. At first, it was proposed simply to apply to "cloture," which would be but one feature, though a quite important one, of the rules of the last Republican house. It is probable that this did not go far enough to satisfy the administration, but at any rate, the further consideration of the matter seems to have led to the conclusion that a radical change from the rules of the last house will be necessary in order to prevent a protracted battle over silver. Mr. Crisp is reported to have admitted that if congress is to be controlled and filibustering prevented, rules practically similar to these hitherto condemned would be absolutely necessary. Mr. Cox of New York, who will be a very conspicuous figure in this congress, is said to be of the same opinion, believing that it is better to be inconsistent and to pay tribute to the parliamentary genius and skill of the last Republican speaker than to allow "the respectable element of the democratic party to be controlled by a rabble." If this distinguished representative of Tammany is correctly reported, he is prepared to go even further than the Reed rules went in order to insure the success of the administration's financial policy.
The indications are that Former Speaker Reed will have the gratification of seeing practically the same rules which brought upon him unstinted democratic abuse adopted by a democratic house, and those who know anything of his nature can understand how he would enjoy and appreciate such a vindication. Republican votes will probably be required, however, to affect the desired change, and it remains to be seen what view the minority party in the house will take of their duty in the matter. It is doubtless safe to predict that they will be found standing by the parliamentary monetary record they have made.
According to Washington advices, Speaker Crisp does not intend to announce until two weeks after it has convened, no base his action in this respect upon a desire to consult with the various members of congress in order to ascertain what positions they may prefer. To pursue a course as thus outlined savors greatly of imposing upon long suffering people. James Crisp has expected to be re-elected speaker from the beginning of the democratic victory last fall. He has had ample time to select his committees and could have secured from the various congressmen an expression of their desired posts months ago. He knows and has always known that congress cannot do active work without its committees, yet he proposes to act in the matter just as if he were making up the list for the first time. A speaker who is re-elected has no excuse for delaying the announcement of committee assignments for a single day.
Mr. James M. Gillan today assumes charge of the position of secretary to the Board of Education, to which he was recently elected. Mr. Gillan's familiarity with the workings of the board gained by five years' experience in reporting its meetings for the local press enabled him to assume the duties devolving upon him without the preliminary schooling which would be necessary for a man entirely unacquainted with the work. He had the faculty of holding up to the public view the prudent actions of the various members of the board without antagonizing any one of them and this gives promise of his ability to continue in harmony with %PO whose cooperation he will require. We do not hesitate to assure the board that it will not be disappointed in its new secretary.
It is an interesting fact that the financial disturbance in the United States has not to have produced the slightest effect in Canada. No Canadian banker depositor has had the faintest ground or suspicion that he might at some future time be paid in any coin or currency not equal to gold. Neither has any capitalist feared that loans would be sealed or endangered by changes in the legal standard of values. Therefore, Canada has been comparatively free from distrust and the industrial stagnation which lack of confidence begets. In every department of material development this country has long outstripped the Dominion and been better prepared and strengthened for hard times. Yet we find Canada moving along in its wonted course, while the United States are under a cloud of financial distrust and business depression. Of course, the obvious explanation is in the better money system of our northern neighbors and the object lesson is one which may very properly be commended to the attention of the people who are demanding that this country shall go further along the "mistaken road" on which it has been traveling for some years. The Canadian people may claim superiority to us in at least one respect there is no question as to the soundness of their monetary system.

An Object Lesson.
New York Post.
There is nothing like an object lesson to open the eyes of the people to the working of a principle. For twenty-five years the Iowa republicans have been insisting that southern negroes were entitled by law to vote as freely as white men, and that this legal provision settled the question. But for ten years their own state has had a law which prohibits the sale of liquor, and this law is openly and flagrantly violated in every city and large town with the consent of the local public. At last the more sensible are beginning to appreciate the situation.
Suspended, Not Insolvent.
Philadelphia Times.
Of the hundred or so of national banks which have lately closed their doors, eleven of them are entirely solvent. They have ample resources to meet all their liabilities, but the best of securities cannot be convened into money, and they were compelled to suspend to protect their assets and their creditors. Already some of the banks which suspended have resumed, and it is entirely safe to say that no more than one in ten will fail to resume on an entirely solvent basis. It is safe to say, also, that of the few that will not resume, a majority of them would have been entirely solvent under any ordinary conditions of business and values.
A Unit for Repel.
Fmland's Leader.
A New York line addressed a circular letter to representative men of factories throughout the United States asking for the views of these practical men touching the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act. The replies, without a single dissent, are strongly for the repeal. An interesting feature of these letters is the force with which they insist that this is in no sense a party question, in some cities all the manufacturers in certain lines joined in the reply. The flouring mill machinery firms of Indianapolis call attention to the value of public meetings to show the deep concern the manufacturers have in the issue. A Chester county, Pennsylvania, line asserts that the manufacturing interests of this state are a "unit in the desire for the early repeal of the clause." These letters, as a whole, forcefully impress the reader that these men regard the repeal as of the greatest importance to their business.

HOT CHAOS (EDITORS NOTE): New York World: The House of Commons should have an umpire and a secretary. Chicago Daily News: A free fight in the "finest body of gentlemen in Europe" is a spectacle which any man may well weep to have missed seeing. Philadelphia Times: Instead of the speaker's mace, better order might have been instilled if they had brought in Jem of that ilk. Chicago Herald: The British critics that have always been so prompt in denouncing lack of dignity in American national and state legislatures will perhaps modify the pungency of their comments hereafter. Minneapolis Tribune: One of the most disgraceful and surprising features of the fray was that it was conducted in such rank disregard and violation of Queensberry rules.
It was certainly something, boys, in only or during the pinnacle, And know the Yankees every time many a chance! But whose the day to Britain, boys, when such a thing occurs, And starting the fight in Scotland were bloody, foretold.
Philadelphia Record: At least one man was unromantically disgusted at the row in the British House of Commons. His name is Dr. Tanner; and he came into the chamber just too late for the shindy. Boston Globe: And yet, despite all the outrageous doings at Westminster, we suppose certain of the line old-crusted English press will continue to descant complacently upon the superior manners of Parliament compared with congress, Just as of yore. New York Post: Mr. Ascher's new Pall Mall Magazine lately offered prizes for the best drawings of an imaginary session of the Irish Parliament in Dublin. An instantaneous photograph of the scene in the House of Commons last night would have taken first prize. St. Louis Republic: If such a row as that which recently occurred in the British House of Commons had taken place in the congress of the United States, we should have had to listen to this a great deal of moralizing from the British press, cabled over here for our education and improvement.
Cleveland Herald: Twenty-seven, when O'Connor spoke the crowd grew immediate, truly; For this O'Dooley held the crowd And hoarsely O'Dooley: And Redmond gave Michael aswing And all was well, before. And there was born rule on that ship Where to his fate O'Connor got An' so? "Sorry," said he: "For say in plain words Did, said he, "I'm sorry!"
Washington Star: If Thomas Power O'Connor had to apologize to the House of Commons for his reference to Judas, why should Joseph Chamberlain's allusion to Herod be passed by? Which of these New Testament worthies is the more estimable in the eyes of Speaker Peel? Indianapolis Journal: Altogether, the event brightens a dull season, and the great regret of most American readers must be that they were not there to see. The average Britisher, as an individual, is not always pleasing, but collectively he can be depended upon to add to the gaiety of the frivolous outside world.
ABOUT THE FAIR: Souvenir spoons made of South Dakota tin are for sale as great curiosities in the South Dakota building. The insect enemies of vegetation in their myriad forms, make up a large and discouraging collection in the Forestry building. The roof promenade on the Manufactures building is soon to be opened to the public again. Fire escapes and other protections are now being provided. There are 300 incandescent electric lights on the outside rim of the Ferris wheel, and when they are in motion at night they present a fairy scene indeed.
Seven barrels of water from the river Toronto, pieces of wood from the olive trees growing on holy ground, and a crown of thorns have been received at New York for the Palestine exhibit at the exposition. In the South Dakota building is a great book, a register, so large that in making the cover the whole of an ox's hide was used. It is intended to direct attention to the fact that South Dakota is a cattle-raising state. Montana people want the silver statue of Justice exhibited in their state building. The complaint is that it has no adequate setting in the Mines building, but is there crowded by a bookcase and a copper kettle. South Dakota exhibits great blocks of the soil from different parts of the state. These blocks, four feet deep, are the surface soil and are as black as coal. Maps of the state show just what sections are covered by this well-nigh inexhaustible richness.
A collection of 4,000 cannas can now be seen cast of Agricultural hall. They were raised in France. Some of them are now in bloom and all of them will be within a month. It promises to be a sight of blooming beauty such as has rarely been seen. The Japanese temple of Hoden or Wooded Island is never opened except in fine weather. When clouds in the sky threaten rain, the panels are kept closely shut and the public is denied admittance till the weather permits the dainty buildings to be opened.
Theodore Thomas and his orchestra has cost the exposition nearly $600,000 and the directors are beginning to investigate how much this expensive organization has brought in in receipts. So far the concerts have realized only $100,000 and the audiences are not growing. In the Government building a case of stamps is shown valued at $10,000. A thief cut the glass of the case with a diamond, but failed to get the ten stamps making up the set. A guard has now been detailed to watch the exhibit to prevent another attempt to steal it.
In the Transportation building is a pile of very old boards enclosed by a wire screen. The inscription over it tells that it is from a plankway laid in Germany by Dominitus about the time of the birth of Christ. This old road is now overgrown with a covering of moss sixteen feet thick.
August 26 should be the high water day at the World's fair in point of attendance. It will be Poets' day. If all the poets within a radius of 600 miles put in an appearance the exposition grounds will be well filled by to o'clock in the morning and overflow meetings will have to be held on the lake front north of the Spectatorium and in the vacant lots in Hyde Park.
Chief Bonfield has rounded up sixty-five lads whom he believes to belong to a regularly organized band for pickpocketing and other lines of thieving on the fair grounds. They are all very neatly dressed and, when herded together, pretended to be total strangers to each other, but several were detected in making signs to others, and there is much evidence which goes to prove the chief's theory. When one is arrested he is immediately bailed out and forfeits his bail.

Morgan fought as a boy for the Independence
of Texas, during the Mexican war rose to the
rank of general and during the war of the
rebellion was, until incapacitated, the colleague
of General Sherman in command of an
army corps. Subsequently, he served two
terms as a member of congress.
The Board of Public Works last afternoon awarded the contract for the water, gas, and sewer connections on North Nineteenth Street, between Nicholas and Ohio, to J.B. Hughes. The other bidder protested and set up the claim that J.B. Hughes was neither a licensed plumber nor drain layer, which the contract could not be awarded to him. Chairman Winspear and Major Bale combine investigated and reached the conclusion that they could award the contract on condition that J.B. Hughes employ a licensed plumber to do the work.
The monthly payroll of the board was approved and ordered sent to the comptroller. Jim Koonsen's sweeping estimate for July, amounting to $1,500, was approved. Major Baleumbist said this was done to prevent Jim from throwing himself into the angry waters of the Missouri River during hard times, as he had threatened to do.
The board again deferred action on Samuel Katz's bid for disposing of barrels of earth and assembling nuisance lots. The prices quoted were from $183 to $213 per square yard. The members will ascertain whether the lots are really nuisances and whether the city will be justified in proceeding.

Recounting of tlia Struggle for the Right

DES MOISBS , July 31. [ Special to TUB
BKB. ] The state of Iowa has boon the pioneer
neer In railroad legislation , nnd after a scries
of litigations extending over n period of
twenty years all the principal points In dis
pute have been settled by the courts In favor
} f the people. From the bald assumption
made in the debate in the legislature of 1873 ,
rfhlch passed the original "granger law , "
that the lair making power "had no morn
right to regulate railroad charges than It
had to fix the prlco of a bushel of corn , "
the railroads have Yielded inch by Inch
when driven from their position by adverse
Judicial decisions , until today the absolute
right of tbo Btato to 11 x charges tor both
freight and passenger transportation is re
luctantly conceded.
By thu net of 187-l-tho legislature fixed A
Hchcdulo of Inflexible rates , and any nnd all
charges above this rate were declared lo bo
"extortion. " The
Chicago , Burlington &
Qulncy railroad refused to comply with this
law , and appealed to the United States cir-
clt court for nn order restraining the attor-
iioy general from bringing "penalty suits. "
The case was taken to thu supreme court of
tlio United StntcB for Ilnal hoarlng and de
cided against thu company by that tribunal.
Thu case Is stated In full "
on page ir > , > of
the xciv. United States Reports , nnd de
cided on the broad principle thai "when
private property is devoted to : i public use
it Is subject to public regulation. " The rail
roads of tUo state , following this decision ,
yielded a sullen submission to the Hw , and
bout all their energies toward securing Its
repeal , which they succeeded In accomplish
ing In 1878.
The railroads , fearing further hostile leg
islation , "evidently" went into politics , for
thu majority of the three succeeding legisla
tures seemed to have been ncrvllocorporatlon
tools , nnd that influence dominated the sen
ate in IbSO.
The great farmers alliance movement of
18S7-H , however , swept the legislature halls
almost clear of corporation lackeys , and the
legislaluro which assembled at thu state
capital on the Otli day of January , 1888 , was
iirobabl.v the most aggressive anti-monopoly
Jaw making body that was over called to
gether in any state In the union.
IIotT the t/'oriiriitloii | H'rro Checked.
The repeal bill of 1878 did not wipe out
every vestlgo of railroad legislation. Throe
commissioners to bo unpointed by the
governor wnro provided for by
that measure , on whom the duty
of regulating railroads was conferred.
Meanwhile the feeble attempt of these com
missioners aided by the insolence of the
railroads to prevent the Chicago , Burling
ton it Qjlncy from charging more for haul
ing coal from tbo same mines in Lucas
county to a state institution nt Glcnwood
than to a similar institution at Council
Bluffs , fifty miles further , had disgusted
Governor Uarrabeo with the commissioner
system nnd converted that fearless official
from a strong friend of the railways to a
bitter and determined champion of state
regulation , thus making the trinity of law
power a unit in opposition to further dis
crimination nnd extortion.
In his message of 1888 the governor took
radical grounds and recommended the pass-
nee of n law destroying the pass system
"root nnd branch , " fixing passenger rates at
2 cents per mile and empowering the
Board of Hallway Commissioners to estab
listi a schedule of freight rates and confer
ring upon it every power vested in the legls
lature for the regulation and control of
railroads. Ho also suggested that if the
commissioner system should be retained that
the commissioners should bo elected by
the people. The legislature thus advised
proceeded with commendable alacrity and
with a skill nnd judgment rarely equaled
in the drafting of legislative nets to enact
laws in conformity with the recommenda
tions of the governor. The railroad com
missioners were made elective , ono being
chosen annually. ( louse file 373 was also
passed , the principal provisions of which nro
as follows :
Main Features of the Loir.
The law requires that all charges shall bo
reasonable and just , nnd prohibits unjust
nnd unreasonable charges , all special rates ,
rebates and drawbacks of every description ,
but recognizes the classification of goods and
rates per 100 pounds und carload lots. '
It declares it unlawful to give preference
to persono , llrms , corporations , localities , or
any description of t radio , oxqipt as to time
of shipment of live stock or perishable prop
erty. It requires equal facilities for the in
terchange of Irafllo between the respective
lilies , and for the receiving , forwarding and
switching cars. Any common carrier may
bo required to switch nnd transfer cars for
another for the purpose of being loaded or
unloaded upon terms prescribed by the rail
road commissioners.
The carload by the law is made the unit
in lara shipments , and the hundred pounds
in less than car lots ; the rate on ono car
must bo us low as on any number of cars and
on 100 pounds ns low as any number , until
ttio carload Is reached.
No railroad company shall charge agreater
compensation for transportation for a shorter
tliin | a longer distance over Us railroad
( which includes any branch that it may
operate ) , uny part of the shorter haul being
included within the longer. No carrier shall
charge for transporting freight from any
point more than a fair and just rate as com
pared with the price it charges from any
other point. Pooling , whether of rates or'
carriage , is prohibited. Schedules of
rates nro to bo printed and posted. The
carriage of freight is required to bo cpn-
tlnuous from place of shipment to destina
tion and any combination that shall produce
interference is unlawful. Any person in
jured by a violation of the law may make
romplalnt to thu commissioners or may bring
suit in the courts of the atato. The railroad
commissioners nro empowered to Inquire
Into the management of the business of the
carrier and ail contracts , agreements or
documents of any kind must bo produced
when called for. Any person , llrui or cor
poration may make complaint to tno rail '
road commissioners of any act or failure to ,
perform any duty which shall bo investi
gated nnd the provision of the interstate
roinmerco law is adopted "that no complaint
shall at anvtimo bo dismissed because of the
absence of direct damage to the com
plainant. "
How llatoa Are I'Uod.
Tim Board of Hallroad Commissioners is
requlrea to make a classification nnd sched
ule of reasonable maximum rates , which
shall bo taken in the courts of the state as
prinin facie evidence of reasonable and just
rates. Any person , firm , corporation or as
sociation may make complaint before ttie
board us to rates or discriminations , und it
hall bo thu duty of the board to 11 x time
nnd plnca for hearing , upon thu hearing the
cominisslonora shall rocolvo evidence , state
ments or arguments offered by either party ,
but the burden of proof shall not bo held to
l > o on the part of thu complainant. The
lowest rates charged by any railroad com
pany in thlii or any other state or by any >
other railroad with which tno railroad com
pany complained of hna tratllo arrange-
Inents shall be accepted by the commission
ers ns prlmn facie evidence- reasonable
rates. After hearing nnd investigation the
commissioner * shall fix and determine 10a
maximum rate on nil mutter * speciiiod In the
If * complaint , and the classifications and sched
ules shnll bo accepted as prima facie evi
dence of reasonable rates in nil
thu courts of the itato. The rate
par hundred shall bo the eamo for like claisos
of freight for like distance
to nil persons
shipping in quantities lesi than carload lots ,
nnd rate per hundred for all persons ship *
ping In carload lots shall be the same for the
aamo distances for the same class at freight.
Penalties from 1500 to f lu.OuO are Imposed
for violation of thu law. It is made tbo duty
of tbo railroad commissioners to proieouie
suits for the collection of penalties and no
suit begun by the commissioners shall
bo dismissed without the consent of the
commissioner * and attorney general. The
exceptions to the rule laid down In the law

require , shall In the performance ot their

It .Mrt Illtlnr Opposition.
It will bo seen from 5 careful reading that
this Is ttio most strlngcst and far-reaching
railroad law over placed upon n statute book.
It Is no wonder , therefore , that It was olt-
terly opposed at every slop by an array of
legal talent that only corporations and pri
vate persons of unlimited means can com
mand , Strenuous efforts were made to so
amend iho bill that the rates fixed by the
commissioners should bn nbsoluie and final
and not subject to review by the courts.
Nearly four weeks were consumed in the
senate in nn almost successful attempt to
insert Iho words "undue" and "unjusl" In the
following clause : "And all [ undue and un
jusl ] discrimination of every character be
tween individuals or localities H hereby
prohibited and declared lo bo unlawful , "
To inscrl iho words ns mdlcalt-d above Iho
friends of iho measure contended would in
effect legalize certain kinds of discrimina
tion , iho very ihlng the jaw was intended lo
prevent. Tbo amendment was voted down
by the close vote ot' l to 'J7. and the law was
engrafted on the statute books exactly as-
framed by the ablest attorneys in the ranks
of the friends and supporters of railroad
roeulatlon.
The battle was ihon Iransferred to the
courts. The law wont into effect on May 8 ,
and was ' .mmcdtatcly lollowed by the with
drawal and cancellation of nil special nnd
terminal rates on local freight traffic and
the substitution of a distance tariff
In practical conformity to the law ,
except that the rates wore oxjessivo.
Tbo railroad oommissloiKirs , Smith , Campbell -
boll and Day , lost uo time in complying with
tlio requirements of the law. They speed
ily proceeded to adopt a schedule of freight
charges based upon the "cost of service , "
making an average reduction df about 20 teX
! X > per cent from prevailing rates , and In
some articles running as high us 50 per cent.
This was especially true in tlio case of coal
and other heavy merchandise.
tiot Iho I.uw lu Court.
The date of the taking effect of this sched
ule was tlxed on Juno 28 , which wns
afterwards changed to July 5. On
the former datu a restraining order ,
issued by Justice Brewer of the United
States circuit court , prohibiting thu boanl
from pulling iho rates in force , was served
on the commissioners. This suit was brought
at the instance of the Chicago & North
western , the Chicago , Milwaukee & SI.
Paul and Iho Chicago , Burliuglon & Qulncy.
The Chicago. Hock Island & Pacilio and the
Burlington , Cedar liapids & Northern also
joined in the fray and secured an injunction
from Judge Falrall of the siatn district
court at Iowa City to tlio same effect.
Two principal points wore rolled on by the
railroad ntlornoys to sustain their case.
First , "The legislature has no power to del
egate to any body of men and clothe them
with the right to perform legislative func
tions. " Second , "Tho rates lixod by the
commissioners are unrcmuuurativo. If the
railroads are compelled lo do business on
Ibis basis Ihoy will not earn enough to pay
running expenses , and this would bo a vir
tual confiscation of property without due
process of law. " In granting the temporary
injunction Judge Brewer overruled the llrst
polul and swept away the cobwebs of sophib-
try so Ingeniously spun by the corporation
lawyers by the following torso statement :
Tlio courts ought not lo declare a statute
unconstitutional unless it is clearly so.
There Is no inherent vice In the
delegation of such power , the vital
question 10 shipper and carrier being lhat
tlio rates should bo reasonable. While the
power to llx rates is loeislatlve , yet the de
marcation between legislative and executive
is not always readily discerned ; the legis
lature frequently establishes rules and prin
ciples , leaving their execution and details to
others. In view of constantly changing con
ditions , justice is more likely to bo reached
by n body that is constantly in session than
ono that convenes only at stated periods. "
Tbo second point , which was sustained by
a largo number of affidavits , the judge , for
the time being , sustained , holding , however ,
that "if the rates should give compensation
.to tlio owners of the property , no matter
how small , the courts have no power lo in L-
terfere. "
Not gelling the desired consolation from
Justice Brawer , tbo corporations went to
Judge Falrall for relief. That official pro
mulgated the following : "Tbo courts have
the aulhorlly lo review the rates flxed by
tlio commissioners. Tlio legislature not only
bus tlio power lo llx a schedule of rates , but
has also tlio right to delegate that power.
But to require a common carrier to trans
port prouerty for less than a just and reason
able charge Is to require It to carry without
reward , or to take privalo property for
public use without compensation or by due
process of law. " He supported this position
by quoting from tlio decision of Chief Justice
Waite in the Mississippi case , in which ho
said :
\Vnlto on Itoculntlon.
"From what has been said it is not to bo
inferred that this power of limitation or reg
ulation is without limitation , or lhat regula
tion is without limit. This power to regu
late Is not a power lo destroy and limitation
is not equivalent to conilscation. Under pre
tense of regulating faros nnd freights , the
state cannot require a railroad company to
carry without revenue ; neither can it do
that which in law amounts to taking of pri i-
vate property for public use without just
compensation , or without clue process of
law. " Further on in the opinion of Judge
\Vnito , ho says : "What would have this
effect wu need not now say , because
no tariff has yet boon tlxod by the com
mission , and the statute of Mississippi ex
pressly provides that in nil trials of cases
brought for tv violation of any tariff of
charges as fixed by the commission , it may
be shown in dofensu that such tariff so fixed
is unjust. "
Judge Falrall sums up the case ns follows :
"Tho questions Involved in this case nro
purely legal , and Iho main ono is the power
of the state to make and enforce rates of
transportation to bo charges by railroad
corporations and other common carriers ,
when from iho pleadings such rales are
admitted to bo so low as not to pay Jlxod
charges and operating expenses. This ques
tion , which has never been nqunrcly
determined by the supreme court , either of
this state or thu United States , is ono
which must bo mot by the courts and passed
upon , thu samons other questions uf contro
verted rights between thu state and the
individual. "
Out by llretror.
These respective Injunctions Tendered the
commissioners powerless , for the time , but
early in November the railroad attorneys
wore literally laughed out of court. ysn
August 30 , forly-four shipper ! ! and Jobbers of
Davenport entered complaint of excessive
freight charges , substantially ns follows :
They averred that the Chicago , Uock Island
& Pacific , the Milwaukee & St. Paul , thu
Burlington , Cedar Rapids & Northern and
tlio Minneapolis & St. Louu railroads had
entered into n conspiracy to defeat the op
eration of house Jllo 373 , nnd were charging
unreasonable and excessive rates , etc. , and
had arbitrarily changed the classification of
groceries , provisions , hardware and heavy
articles so as to largely increase the cost of
transportation and destroy the jobbing busi
ness. The Bumo complaint in regard to other
roads was ulso made by thu jobbers of
Dubuquoand Burlington. The commission
ers , under the mandatory provisions of sec
tion 18 of the act , were compelled to hoar
tlio complaint , and after a thorough Investi
gation decided in favor of the complainants ,
again reaffirming their former schedule , with
slight modillcations. For this act they were
called buforo Judge Brewer again by the
railroads , who asked that the now schedule
be on joined , pending the final hearing of iho
first Injunction , which was set for December -
comber 11 ; und also , that th promulgation
of the new schedule was practically a viola
tlon of the orders of iho court , and prayed
that the commissioners bo cited to appear
for contempt. In rendering his decision ,
which was quite lengthy , Judge Brewer
said :
"There are substantially three questions
presented. First , has there been an inva
sion of the injunction Issued and therefore a
practical contempt of that order ; second - '
did the sootlons of the statute under which
the commissioners acted give thorn authority
to render such a decision and establish a
schedule of rate * tor the complainants ;
thlrJ , Is the schedule Just and rensoniblel
With reference to the llrst question there Is
little room for doubt. In the Injunction
which was IssuoJ there was no assumption
of trawer to proscribe rates and no pretense
of Interfering with the commissioners In the
discharge of any duty Impose 1 on them by
statute. ' ' In locldlng the second point iho
Judge acknowledged lhal In considering Ibe
preliminary injunction ho had been led Into
nn error In concluding that only under sec
tion 17 ot the statute could the commission
ers nuke a full schedule. Ho now reversed
that ruling nnd held that under section 13
the commissioners could make nnd establish
n now schedule on the complaint of
any party aggrieved , so that as fast
ns they were enjoined a now schedule
could bo promulgated , thus piling
up Iho costs nnd Iho penalties mountain
high , reaching even beyond the plethoric
nockctbook uf a railroad corporation to sat
isfy , and opening the ro.id to endless litiga
tion.
Judge Brewer closed his opinion as fol
lows : "Influenced by these considerations I
nm led to refuse the preliminary injunction
und to so ; nsldo the restraining order al
ready Issued. U may DO that by thu time this
case comes to a Ilnal hearing the test of ex
perience will have salved some of these mat
ters ; and if may bo clear , as now seems
probable , that the rates hnposa.t by this
last schedule nro compensatory within tbo
rule laid down in the prior opinion , in which
cane no Injunction oiuht to issuo. It may
nlso bo apn.irent by that time that tbo rates
nro not compensatory. In which case , beyond
uny doubt In my mind , u Una ! and perma
nent injunction ought to bo granted , "

This decision , whleit w .is rendered on the
second day tif February , liBD , was followed
two days later by a graceful capitulation by
President Perkins of tbo Chicago , Hurling-
ton & Qulncy , who accepted tbo commis
sioners' schedules under protest. lie thought
as the rates only ntTectcd about 4 per cent of
thu company's business it would surrivo
and still pay at least a small dividend ,
The other roads soon followed the good example -
ample set by the -'Q , " mid the triumph of
thu commissioners in the long-drawn-nut
legal tussle was complete ana overwhelming.
Tin ) railroads now gut down on their knees
In n ilguivulvu sense and cried "Enough. "
They begged the governor and the railroad
conimlKsioncr.i to waive all claims for dam-
.ages growing out of the temporary injunc
tions and they would dismiss the pending
cases ana pay all the costs. This arrange
ment was finally made and agreed tp be
tween the state and the principal lines of
railway. It thus happened that while the
appeal from Judge Falrall was argued befofco
the state supreme court no decision was over
rendered by that tribunal , the railroads
having withdrawn their case from consider
ation.
It will bo seen that every legal paint
raised was substantially decided against the
railroads except one , and that is thut the
law-making power has no right to establish
such a law schedule that the railroads
would not bo ublo. to earn enough
to pay actual running expenses
and have something of a dividend , no matter
how small , for the stockholders. This ques
tion has never .vet been passed upon by the
highest judicial tribunals.
The railroads next turned their attention
to the defeat of the commlssionors , Smith
and Campbell , to whoso power they were
compelled to bow. This they have finally
accomplished.
Cut Tham On Entirely.
The legislature which assembled In 1890
wont ono step ahead of its predecessor.
Much of the local tnifilc in this state passes
over two or more lines. Taking advantage
of this fact the railroads used the two local
tariffs In computing the charges. The gen
eral assembly , on recommendation of the
commissioners promptly passed a Joint rate
bill "requiring the railroads to accept
a pro rata share of the charges and
making the rate the same as though
the shipment was over 0110 continuous line.
To this act the railroads raised the most
violent objections , claiming among oihor
things that they were compelled to enter
into contracts without their consent , de
nied protection to their property , and de
prived of the same without duo process of
law and a violation of the xiv amendment
to the national constitution by "abridging
the privileges and immunities of citizens. "
Juago Fain-ill's court was again invoked
to stay the hand of the commissioners , but
the temporary injunction which he Issued
was speedily sot aside by the supreme court
by n vote of 3 to 2 and the legality of this ex
treme act of railroad legislation was for the
time being afllrincd.

of playing a scurvy trick upos the retained
architects who were so loud in their asser
tions thut it was a marvel of architectural
skill and workmanship. The readers of THE
Bui : , who followed the evidence in the recent
impeachment cases elopelj\ will remember
that the north wall of , the .new cell house
was constructed upon the foundation of the
old stockade around th $ prison yard. This
stockade was cut down to a level of the
windo.v sills and built-up of new stone ,
"plugged and scabbledr to flUe. " The now
portionof the walMs ns.symmetrical as when
it left the hands of thu.builder , but Warden
Mallon states that thojbld part of the wall
bas gradually been glvlujj way under the
pressure of the heavy 'weight , of the now
part above it. Commencing at the north
west corner of the now cell house the old
wall has bulged inwardly for at least four
inches. The bulging nortiou of the wall ex
tends from the uortluvcib corner to a point
about ten feet east.

Oily Ulurk or Illulr , NuU | Mr. A. H. Smith in Des Moines, July 31. [Special to THE BEE.] The state of Iowa has been the pioneer in railroad legislation, and after a series of litigations extending over a period of twenty years, all the principal points in dispute have been settled by the courts in favor of the people. From the bald assumption made in the debate in the legislature of 1873, which passed the original "granger law," that the right making power "had no more right to regulate railroad charges than it had to fix the price of a bushel of corn," the railroads have yielded inch by inch when driven from their position by adverse judicial decisions, until today the absolute right of the state to regulate charges for both freight and passenger transportation is reluctantly conceded.
By the act of 1878, the legislature fixed a schedule of inflexible rates, and any and all charges above this rate were declared to be "extortion." The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad refused to comply with this law, and appealed to the United States circuit court for an order restraining the attorney general from bringing "penalty suits." The case was taken to the supreme court of the United States for final hearing and decided against the company by that tribunal. The case is stated in full on page 1, > of the XCIV. United States Reports, and decided on the broad principle that "when private property is devoted to a public use, it is subject to public regulation." The railroads of the state, following this decision, yielded a sullen submission to the law, and devoted all their energies toward securing its repeal, which they succeeded in accomplishing in 1878.
The railroads, fearing further hostile legislation, "evidently" went into politics, for the majority of the three succeeding legislatures seemed to have been purchased by the corporations, and that influence dominated the senate in 1880. The great farmers' alliance movement of 1887, however, swept the legislature halls almost clear of corporation lackeys, and the legislature which assembled at the state capital on the 8th day of January, 1888, was probably the most aggressive anti-monopoly law-making body that was ever called together in any state in the union.
Despite the corporation's efforts, the repeal bill of 1878 did not wipe out every vestige of railroad legislation. Three commissioners to be appointed by the governor were provided for by that measure, on whom the duty of regulating railroads was conferred. Meanwhile, the feeble attempt of these commissioners aided by the insolence of the railroads to prevent the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy from charging more for hauling coal from the same mines in Lucas county to a state institution at Glenwood than to a similar institution at Council Bluffs, fifty miles further, had disgusted Governor Barrabee with the commissioner system and converted that fearless official from a strong friend of the railways to a bitter and determined champion of state regulation, thus making the trinity of law power a unit in opposition to further discrimination and extortion.
In his message of 1888, the governor took radical grounds and recommended the passage of a law destroying the pass system "root and branch," fixing passenger rates at 2 cents per mile and empowering the Board of Highway Commissioners to establish a schedule of freight rates and conferring upon it every power vested in the legislature for the regulation and control of railroads. He also suggested that if the commissioner system should be retained, that the commissioners should be elected by the people. The legislature, thus advised, proceeded with commendable alacrity and with a skill and judgment rarely equaled in the drafting of legislative acts to enact laws in conformity with the recommendations of the governor. The railroad commissioners were made elective, one being chosen annually. House File 373 was also passed, the principal provisions of which are as follows:
Main Features of the Law.
The law requires that all charges shall be reasonable and just, and prohibits unjust and unreasonable charges, all special rates, rebates, and drawbacks of every description, but recognizes the classification of goods and rates per 100 pounds and carload lots. It declares it unlawful to give preference to persons, firms, corporations, localities, or any description of trade, except as to time of shipment of live stock or perishable property. It requires equal facilities for the interchange of traffic between the respective lines, and for the receiving, forwarding, and switching cars. Any common carrier may be required to switch and transfer cars for another for the purpose of being loaded or unloaded upon terms prescribed by the railroad commissioners.
The carload by the law is made the unit in bar shipments, and the hundred pounds in less than car lots; the rate on one car must be as low as on any number of cars and on 100 pounds as low as any number, until the carload is reached.
No railroad company shall charge a greater compensation for transportation for a shorter than for a longer distance over its railroad (which includes any branch that it may operate), any part of the shorter haul being included within the longer. No carrier shall charge for transporting freight from any point more than a fair and just rate as compared with the price it charges from any other point. Pooling, whether of rates or carriage, is prohibited. Schedules of rates are to be printed and posted. The carriage of freight is required to be continuous from place of shipment to destination and any combination that shall produce interference is unlawful. Any person injured by a violation of the law may make complaint to the commissioners or may bring suit in the courts of the state. The railroad commissioners are empowered to inquire into the management of the business of the carrier and all contracts, agreements, or documents of any kind must be produced when called for. Any person, firm, or corporation may make complaint to the railroad commissioners of any act or failure to perform any duty which shall be investigated and the provisions of the interstate commerce law are adopted "that no complaint shall at any time be dismissed because of the absence of direct damage to the complainant."
How Rates Are Fixed.
The Board of Railroad Commissioners is required to make a classification and schedule of reasonable maximum rates, which shall be taken in the courts of the state as prima facie evidence of reasonable and just rates. Any person, firm, corporation, or association may make complaint before the board as to rates or discriminations, and it shall be the duty of the board to fix time and place for hearing, upon the hearing the commissioners shall receive evidence, statements, or arguments offered by either party, but the burden of proof shall not be held to lie on the part of the complainant. The lowest rates charged by any railroad company in this or any other state or by any other railroad with which the railroad company complained of has traffic arrangements shall be accepted by the commissioners as prima facie evidence of reasonable rates. After hearing and investigation, the commissioners shall fix and determine the maximum rate on all matters specified in the complaint, and the classifications and schedules shall be accepted as prima facie evidence of reasonable rates in all the courts of the state. The rate per hundred shall be the same for like classes of freight for like distance to all persons shipping in quantities less than carload lots, and rate per hundred for all persons shipping in carload lots shall be the same for the same classes of freight for the same distances for the same classes of freight.
Penalties from $1500 to $1000 are imposed for violation of the law. It is made the duty of the railroad commissioners to prosecute suits for the collection of penalties and no suit begun by the commissioners shall be dismissed without the consent of the attorney general. The exceptions to the rule laid down in the law of absolute jurisdiction in person and locality are the United States, the state and municipal corporations, the employees and their families of the railroad company, charities, excursion or commutation passes, preachers, and the exchange of passenger tickets with officers or employees of other roads, also parties in charge of live stock. The railroad commissioners and their secretary, with experts whose services they may require, shall in the performance of their duties be transported free. For the development of any new industry special rates may be made for an agreed number of cars, when approved by the commissioners.
It was strongly opposed.
It will be seen from a careful reading that this is the most stringent and far-reaching railroad law ever placed upon a statute book. It is no wonder, therefore, that it was utterly opposed at every step by an array of legal talent that only corporations and private persons of unlimited means can command. Strenuous efforts were made to so amend the bill that the rates fixed by the commissioners should be absolute and final and not subject to review by the courts. Nearly four weeks were consumed in the senate in an almost successful attempt to insert the words "undue" and "unjust" in the following clause: "And all undue and unjust discrimination of every character between individuals or localities is hereby prohibited and declared to be unlawful," To insert the words as described above, the friends of the measure contended would in effect legalize certain kinds of discrimination, the very thing the law was intended to prevent. The amendment was voted down by the close vote of 37 to 27, and the law was engrafted on the statute books exactly as framed by the ablest attorneys in the ranks of the friends and supporters of railroad regulation.
The battle was then transferred to the courts. The law went into effect on May 8, and was immediately followed by the withdrawal and cancellation of all special and terminal rates on local freight traffic and the substitution of a distance tariff in practical conformity to the law, except that the rates were excessive.
The railroad commissioners, Smith, Campbell, Bell, and Day, lost no time in complying with the requirements of the law. They swiftly proceeded to adopt a schedule of freight charges based upon the "cost of service," making an average reduction of about 20 percent from prevailing rates, and in some articles running as high as 50 percent. This was especially true in the case of coal and other heavy merchandise.
The law in court.
The date of the taking effect of this schedule was fixed on June 28, which was afterwards changed to July 5. On the former date a restraining order, issued by Justice Brewer of the United States circuit court, prohibiting the board from pulling the rates in force, was served on the commissioners. This suit was brought at the instance of the Chicago & North Western, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul and the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy. The Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific and the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern also joined in the fray and secured an injunction from Judge Fairall of the state district court at Iowa City to the same effect.
Two principal points were rolled out by the railroad attorneys to sustain their case. First, "The legislature has no power to delegate to any body of men and clothe them with the right to perform legislative functions." Second, "The rates fixed by the commissioners are unreasonable. If the railroads are compelled to do business on this basis, they will not earn enough to pay running expenses, and this would be a virtual confiscation of property without due process of law."
In granting the temporary injunction, Judge Brewer overruled the first point and swept away the cobwebs of sophistry so ingeniously spun by the corporation lawyers by the following terse statement: "The courts ought not to declare a statute unconstitutional unless it is clearly so. There is no inherent vice in the delegation of such power; the vital question for the shipper and carrier being that the rates should be reasonable. While the power to fix rates is legislative, yet the delineation between legislative and executive is not always readily discerned; the legislature frequently establishes rules and principles, leaving their execution and details to others. In view of constantly changing conditions, justice is more likely to be reached by a body that is constantly in session than one that convenes only at stated periods."
The second point, which was sustained by a large number of affidavits, the judge, for the time being, sustained, holding, however, that "if the rates should give compensation to the owners of the property, no matter how small, the courts have no power to interfere."
Not getting the desired consolation from Justice Brewer, the corporations went to Judge Fairall for relief. That official promulgated the following: "The courts have the authority to review the rates fixed by the commissioners. The legislature not only has the power to fix a schedule of rates, but has also the right to delegate that power. But to require a common carrier to transport property for less than a just and reasonable charge is to require it to carry without reward, or to take private property for public use without compensation or by due process of law." He supported this position by quoting from the decision of Chief Justice Waite in the Mississippi case, in which he said:
"Waldo on Regulation.
"From what has been said it is not to be inferred that this power of limitation or regulation is without limitation, or that regulation is without limit. This power to regulate is not a power to destroy and limitation is not equivalent to confiscation. Under pretext of regulating fares and freights, the state cannot require a railroad company to carry without revenue; neither can it do that which in law amounts to taking of private property for public use without just compensation, or without due process of law."
Further on in the opinion of Judge Waldo, he says: "What would have this effect need not now say, because no tariff has yet been fixed by the commission, and the statute of Mississippi expressly provides that in all trials of cases brought for violation of any tariff of charges as fixed by the commission, it may be shown in defense that such tariff so fixed is unjust."
Judge Fairall sums up the case as follows: "The questions involved in this case are purely legal, and the main one is the power of the state to make and enforce rates of transportation to be charged by railroad corporations and other common carriers, when from the pleadings such rates are admitted to be so low as not to pay fixed charges and operating expenses. This question, which has never been authoritatively determined by the supreme court, either of this state or the United States, is one which must be met by the courts and passed upon, the same as other questions of controverted rights between the state and the individual."
These respective Injunctions Tendered the commissioners powerless, for the time, but early in November the railroad attorneys were literally laughed out of court. On August 30, forty-four shippers and Jobbers of Davenport entered complaint of excessive freight charges, substantially as follows: They averred that the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific, the Milwaukee & St. Paul, the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern and the Minneapolis & St. Louis railroads had entered into a conspiracy to defeat the operation of house bill 373, and were charging unreasonable and excessive rates, etc., and had arbitrarily changed the classification of groceries, provisions, hardware and heavy articles so as to largely increase the cost of transportation and destroy the jobbing business. The same complaint in regard to other roads was also made by the jobbers of Dubuque and Burlington. The commissioners, under the mandatory provisions of section 18 of the act, were compelled to hear the complaint, and after a thorough investigation decided in favor of the complainants, again reaffirming their former schedule, with slight modifications. For this act they were called before Judge Brewer again by the railroads, who asked that the new schedule be on joined, pending the final hearing of the first Injunction, which was set for December 11; and also, that the promulgation of the new schedule was practically a violation of the orders of the court, and prayed that the commissioners be cited to appear for contempt. In rendering his decision, which was quite lengthy, Judge Brewer said:
"There are substantially three questions presented. First, has there been an invasion of the injunction Issued and therefore a practical contempt of that order; second, did the sections of the statute under which the commissioners acted give them authority to render such a decision and establish a schedule of rates for the complainants; third, is the schedule Just and reasonable? With reference to the first question there is little room for doubt. In the Injunction which was Issued there was no assumption of power to proscribe rates and no pretense of interfering with the commissioners in the discharge of any duty imposed on them by statute. In holding the second point the Judge acknowledged that in considering the preliminary injunction he had been led into an error in concluding that only under section 17 of the statute could the commissioners make a full schedule. He now reversed that ruling and held that under section 13 the commissioners could make and establish a new schedule on the complaint of any party aggrieved, so that as fast as they were enjoined a new schedule could be promulgated, thus piling up the costs and the penalties mountain high, reaching even beyond the plethoric ledger of a railroad corporation to satisfy, and opening the road to endless litigation.
Judge Brewer closed his opinion as follows: "Influenced by these considerations I am led to refuse the preliminary injunction and to side with the restraining order already Issued. It may be that by the time this case comes to a Final hearing the test of experience will have saved some of these matters; and if may be clear, as now seems probable, that the rates assumed by this last schedule are compensatory within the rule laid down in the prior opinion, in which case no Injunction ought to issue. It may also be apparent by that time that the rates are not compensatory. In which case, beyond any doubt in my mind, a Final and permanent injunction ought to be granted,"
Emulated Brockton Conn.
This decision, which was rendered on the second day of February, 1891, was followed two days later by a graceful capitulation by President Perkins of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, who accepted the commissioners' schedules under protest. He thought as the rates only affected about 4 percent of the company's business it would survive and still pay at least a small dividend. The other roads soon followed the good example set by the 'Q', and the triumph of the commissioners in the long-drawn-out legal tussle was complete and overwhelming. The railroads now got down on their knees in a figurative sense and cried "Enough." They begged the governor and the railroad commissioners to waive all claims for damages growing out of the temporary injunctions and they would dismiss the pending cases and pay all the costs. This arrangement was finally made and agreed to between the state and the principal lines of railroad. It thus happened that while the appeal from Judge Fairall was argued before the state supreme court no decision was ever rendered by that tribunal, the railroads having withdrawn their case from consideration.
It will be seen that every legal point raised was substantially decided against the railroads except one, and that is that the law-making power has no right to establish such a law schedule that the railroads would not be able to earn enough to pay actual running expenses and have something of a dividend, no matter how small, for the stockholders. This question has never yet been passed upon by the highest judicial tribunals.
The railroads next turned their attention to the defeat of the commissioners, Smith and Campbell, to whose power they were compelled to bow. This they have finally accomplished.
Cut That On Entirely.
The legislature which assembled in 1890 went one step ahead of its predecessor. Much of the local traffic in this state passes over two or more lines. Taking advantage of this fact the railroads used the two local tariffs in computing the charges. The general assembly, on recommendation of the commissioners, promptly passed a Joint rate bill "requiring the railroads to accept a pro rata share of the charges and making the rate the same as though the shipment was over one continuous line. To this act the railroads raised the most violent objections, claiming among other things that they were compelled to enter into contracts without their consent, denied protection to their property, and deprived of the same without due process of law and a violation of the 14th amendment to the national constitution by "abridging the privileges and immunities of citizens." Judge Fairall's court was again invoked to stay the hand of the commissioners, but the temporary injunction which he Issued was speedily set aside by the supreme court by a vote of 3 to 2 and the legality of this extreme act of railroad legislation was for the time being affirmed.

FIRE AND POLICE BOARD.
Brief Session at Which Routine Business Moved Quickly Through.
The Board of Fire and Police commissioners hold a brief meeting last night and transacted considerable routine business.
Patrolman Edgell who seemed to have a grievance against Sergeant Ormsby concluded to withdraw the complaint as his witnesses were not present.
The Nebraska Association of Trotting and Pacing Horse Breeders requested the board to furnish a detail of special police to protect the public and keep peace at its annual meeting from August 11. The committee reported that it had purchased two good horses for the new fire engine and would purchase four more.
The committee on laws and ordinances recommended that ordinance No. 511 be repealed and a new one enacted in its place. They have such an ordinance now under consideration. This ordinance provides for the appointment, discipline, removal, bonds, and powers of men appointed for police duty on special occasions.
The case of Officer Burrows was continued for two weeks. S.H. Winslow of engine company No. 3 made application for appointment as engineer of the new La Franco engine.
Fireman Galligan, Officers Cox and Meals, and Detectives Vizzard and Savaga were granted ten days leave of absence each. The commission adjourned until August 14 and then went into executive session.

FIND OF AN OLD FARMER
Corps of an Unknown Man Discovered in Rainford's Ordinance.
NOTHING TO IDENTIFY THE REMAINS
The body of a man apparently about 45 years of age was found on the banks of Salt Creek a short distance above the Twenty-seventh Street Bridge this forenoon by an old farmer named Sutton, who was at work in the vicinity. The body was entirely denuded of clothing and there was absolutely nothing by which it could be identified. It had evidently been washed ashore and left on the bank by the receding water. It had been in the water so long that it was badly decomposed and the features were unrecognizable.
The authorities were notified and in the absence of the coroner, the remains were taken in charge by Chief of Police Cooper and Sheriff McClay. The remains were first taken to the undertakers, but it was found that it would be impossible to keep them for a coroner's examination overlying to their advanced stage of decomposition and so they were buried at once. In the absence of any record of missing men answering to the description of the victim, the police are of the opinion that the man was some tramp who had gone into the water for a bath and had drowned when beyond the reach of assistance.
Remarks on the Picture.
The people of Omaha are tolerably familiar with the career of Bi Keen, the correspondent of the notorious Kansas City Sun, who figured quite extensively in several criminal libel suits in the metropolis. Keen was sentenced to the state penitentiary for his freedom with the trenchant pen, but before he had served his full time, he secured an order from the supreme court which changed his punishment from imprisonment in the penitentiary to a shorter term of incarceration in the Douglas County Jail. In due course of time, he was liberated. He now appears with a demand upon Warden Upenger for the photograph which was taken at the penitentiary when Keen first became subject to prison rules. The warden declines to surrender the photograph, claiming that it is a part of the prison records and that he has no authority to surrender it. Keen will try the efficacy of a law suit, and in the meantime, his photograph adorns the humble album in the warden's office.
Another Building in Lincoln's Wall.
Warden Mallon has discovered the somewhat startling fact that the north wall of the new cell house at the state penitentiary, which has already achieved so much fame in the state, is again showing marked symptoms of playing a scurvy trick upon the retained architects who were so loud in their assertions that it was a marvel of architectural skill and workmanship. The readers of THE BEE, who followed the evidence in the recent impeachment cases, will remember that the north wall of the new cell house was constructed upon the foundation of the old stockade around the prison yard. This stockade was cut down to a level of the window sills and built up of new stone, "plugged and scraped" to finish. The new portion of the wall is asymmetrical as when it left the hands of the builder, but Warden Mallon states that the old part of the wall has gradually been giving way under the pressure of the heavy weight of the new part above it. Commencing at the northwest corner of the new cell house, the old wall has bulged inwardly for at least four inches. The bulging portion of the wall extends from the northeast corner to a point about ten feet east.
Guests at the State House.
It developed today that the State Board of Public Lands and Buildings on July 24 appointed D.H. Hopkins superintendent of the work of putting down the new cement floor of the old cell house at the state penitentiary at a salary of $5 per day.

Castile of a Neighborhood Quarrel.

STOCKS ANI > HONUS.
Week Opened with Grout Dopresslon on the
Stock Uxch'iiiRu.
NEW YOIIK , July 81. The week opened
with great depression on the Stock ex
change. The bears were In full control of
the market , owing to n decline in Americans
,
in i London , the reports of the flnancial em
barrassments in Chicago , the lurthor break
In wheat nnd the dtlllculty of obtaining
time money. Call loans hero opened
at } { per cent per dlom nnd interest
nnd there were appearances of n squeeze.
The active stocks yielded anywhere from
1 to fi per cent , the dividend and non-dividend
paying shares suffering alike. Among the
specialties Pullman broke 9 per cent to 133
nnd American Tobacco 7 per cent to 43.
There was very little support from a pro
fessional side identified with the bull side of
the account and it was not until tt.o shorts
attempted to borrow stocks to make deliver
ies that any decided-change occurred. When
the demand to borrow sot in it was found that
some of the nctivo stocks lilco Western
Union , General Electric and Now York Cen
tral rated anywhere from } per diem to 5
per cent. In the meantime the engagement
of $1,000,000 gold for shipment to Now York
nnd about $750,000 to Chfcago was reported
from Ixmuon and the foreign advices were
to the effect that further amounts would
probably bo shipped this way during the
next few days.
Thcso advices were corroborated to some
extent by the heavy export demand for
wUeat , following the break li the price of
the latter. The announcement thut the
Now York Clearing House association bus
issued " .225,000 loan certificates hnd com
paratively little effect , It being understood
thut it was for trie purpose of assisting gold
Importations. Thcro wns an nctivo mijuiry
for stock ? throughout , and the oxccution of
these orders assisted the Into recovery.
The advance from the lowest ilgurcs of
the day was equal to 1 to fi per cent. Bur
lington & ( juincy , Northwestern , llock
Island , Lacka wanna , Louisville & Nashville ,
Now York Central , General Electric nnd
Western Unio.i closed % to 3 > percent
nbovo Saturday's ' flnal ligurcs. Although
prices reacted \i \ to 1 per cent from the
highest , the market loft off firmer in tono.
The railway and miscellaneous bond market
was weak nnd lower.
The Post sjiys : The clearing house com
mittee today authorized the Issue of 52,500-
000 moro in loan certificates , which brings
the total Issue outstanding up to $ U7,07G,000 ,
It may bo noted that ' 0,5(15,000 ( was the
maximum issue of 1873 , but this comparison
Is really less impressive than it seems , fern
n very considerable part of this year's Now
York issue has In practical effect been pro
vided for Chicago.
No banks applied todny , so the dispatches
stated , for loan certificates in the city. A
secondary result of the local monetary scnro
was nn absolute want of bids for sterling
bills , exchange rates going on soiuo .trans
actions below the yonr'H proviousTowest
record. The result of today's curious situa
tion in the local sterling market is puzzling
to forecast , hut it is notable that enough
sales have already been intida by the gold
importers to Justify largo purchases and
bids in the London specie market which must
llnd return in other shipments hitur in the
week ,

L | Another Bail Stamp in Wheat Occurred on
'Chang'e Yesterday,
TRADERS DAZED BY THE TURN OF AFFAIRS
Reported Engagements of Gold for Shipment to this Country and Liberal Purchases of Wheat for Export both here and at New York Influenced a Little Stiffening into the Trade during the Close and Left September Wheat at 57c. The High Price of New York Exchange Continues to be the Chief Factor in Limiting the Eastward Movement of Grain.
In sympathy with the Demoralization in Wheat, a Drop in the Price of Corn was Inevitable. The Decline, however, was less than 1 cent per bushel, when at its lowest, September, which closed on Saturday at 3831/2c, commenced at 37c and tumbled at once to 3 1/2c. It worked back and forth between 11 1/2c and 18 1/2c during the latter part of the session. It made a dip to 11 3/4c about midday, then steadied around 3 1/2c for the most part of the latter half of the session. The weather continues hot and dry in Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri, but no complaints to speak of are heard about the growing crop. Trade was at no time brisk. The day's local receipts amounted to 831 cars. The visible supply increased 411,000 bu. The market was fairly steady toward the end and closed with sellers at 53 1/2 for September.
Only a moderate business was transacted in oats. The market opened steady and grew slightly firmer shortly after, but eased off somewhat in sympathy with the other markets. July fell off considerably. The shortage was all covered. Holders had to take what shippers would offer: "60 cars, including 35 new oats, were received. There was a decrease of 5,000 bu. in the visible supply. September started at 31 1/2c, sold up to 28 1/2c, and closed at 32 1/2c. July sold at 21c. May opened at 28c, sold up to 22 1/2c, down to 27 1/2c and up again to 28 1/2c.
There were 2,000 hogs at the yards and they sold at about Saturday's rates. Provisions opened quite weak on account of the sudden drop in wheat, but the clique pegged September lard at 7 1/2c. September lard actually closed 1 1/2c higher than on Saturday and September ribs from 7c to 10c higher. October lard was weak and left off 50c lower. There was a fairly active business done and trading was much more general than of late. Freights were easy, with a fair demand for vessel room at 1 1/2c for wheat and 1c for corn to Buffalo.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 627 cars; corn, 130 cars; oats, 850 cars; hogs, 15,000 head.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
Cash deliveries were as follows:
WHEAT No. 2, 50c; No. 2, 60c; No. 2, 59c; No. 2, 58 1/2c.
CORN No. 2, 36 1/2c; No. 3 yellow, closing at 36c.

TIMOTHY LEAVES No. 1, 1 0/ld 1.01.
POKEMON No. 1, per barrel, 48-lb., $1.00; New York grown, per lb., 2c.
RASPBERRIES The market was very lightly supplied with berries and prices were firm, Blackberries, which have been coming in for a week past in large quantities, were scarcer, and as a result, the only supply that today found in the hands of local growers was sold to this market. The raspberry season is about over. There were a few blueberries in the market, but they have been so high at the points where grown that there has not been much inducement to ship to this market. Blackberries, homegrown, per 24-lb., 12.75; Blueberries, per 12-lb. crate, 13.50; Blackberries, per 3.50.

KANSAS CITY, July 31. Flour, 4,000 sacks; wheat, 130,000 bn.; corn, 170,000 bu.; oats, 39,000 bu.
MISSOURI TRADE Receipts.
LONDON, July 31. The Mark Lane Exchange, in its weekly review of the British grain trade, says: "Where the wheat crop is bad, it is very bad; where it is good, it is barely good. The export yield is not expected to exceed 27 million tons, which will make a total of 760,000,000 against 8,000,000 in 1892. The growth of root crops, including potatoes, has been highly favorable lately. The late showery weather has been advantageous only to oats and barley in backward districts. There will probably be a very fair second crop. There is a good demand in the market for feeding stuffs. The sales in English wheat include new samples. The exhibits were Hindu at 30s per quarter, but later there were transactions at prices ranging from 28s to 31s. The opening mean values were: red, 27s to 31s; white, 28s to 31s. The quality was very uneven. Foreign wheats were dull. Indian and American gained 4d. The stocks of foreign wheat and flour amounted to 2,700,000 quarters. Foreign wheats were still lower. American flour declined 3d per sack. Mining barley was unchanged; feeding was 4d lower. Oats were irregular and cheaper. Corn was from 3d to 4d lower.

POOD DRY GOODS MARKET.
NEW YORK, July 31. There seemed to be a little more life in some quarters of the dry goods market as the result, possibly, of the financial pressure and accumulated mail, There was nothing to indicate any change in the general relation, present or near, though the advantage of the season makes a change possible at any moment.
NORTHWESTERN WHEAT STOCK.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
Week Opened with Great Depressions on the Stock Exchange.
NEW YORK, July 31. The week opened with great depression on the Stock exchange. The bears were in full control of the market, owing to a decline in Americans in London, the reports of the financial embarrassments in Chicago, the further break in wheat and the difficulty of obtaining time money. Call loans here opened at 5 percent per day and interest and there were appearances of a squeeze. The active stocks yielded anywhere from 1 to 5 percent, the dividend and non-dividend paying shares suffering alike. Among the specialties, Pullman broke 9 percent to 133 and American Tobacco 7 percent to 43.
There was very little support from a professional side identified with the bull side of the account and it was not until the shorts attempted to borrow stocks to make deliveries that any decided change occurred. When the demand to borrow set in, it was found that some of the active stocks like Western Union, General Electric and New York Central rated anywhere from 1 percent diurnally to 5 percent. In the meantime, the engagement of $1,000,000 gold for shipment to New York and about $750,000 to Chicago was reported from London and the foreign advices were to the effect that further amounts would probably be shipped this way during the next few days.
These advices were corroborated to some extent by the heavy export demand for wheat, following the break in the price of the latter. The announcement that the New York Clearing House association has issued "225,000 loan certificates had comparatively little effect, it being understood that it was for the purpose of assisting gold importations. There was an active majority for stocks throughout, and the execution of these orders assisted the initial recovery. The advance from the lowest figures of the day was equal to 1 to 5 percent. Burlington & Quincy, Northwestern, Rock Island, Lackawanna, Louisville & Nashville, New York Central, General Electric, and Western Union closed 2 to 3 percent above Saturday's final figures. Although prices reacted 1 to 2 percent from the highest, the market left off firmer in tone. The railway and miscellaneous bond market was weak and lower.
The Post says: The clearing house committee today authorized the issue of 52,500,000 more in loan certificates, which brings the total issue outstanding up to $187,067,000. It may be noted that 0,525,000 was the maximum issue of 1873, but this comparison is really less impressive than it seems, for a very considerable part of this year's New York issue has in practical effect been provided for Chicago.
No banks applied today for loan certificates in the city. A secondary result of the local monetary scene was an absolute want of bids for sterling bills, exchange rates going on some transactions below the year's previous lowest record. The result of today's curious situation in the local sterling market is puzzling to forecast, but it is notable that enough sales have already been induced by the gold importers to justify large purchases and bids in the London specie market which must find return in other shipments during the week.

On the New York Stock Exchange:
July 31, The market was fairly strong today, owing to the Uniting-Grain trade, but the general sentiment was against active buying, except in August and September, hoping to obtain the advantage from the war, their own commercial treaty with China being a strong point. The world and domestic shares fell in track with the general market, the basic industries maintaining their positions, but the speculative shares were heavily discounted. Advance, especially in gold and silver, was due to the strong demand for these metals, and the markets generally closed higher.
NEW YORK, July 31.-The Bank of England today dismissed speculation, announcing the price of gold at $8.11 per ounce, but the bank's own stock said to be of lightweight character, and consequently it will not pay to take them at this price. However, gold was in strong demand for Venezuela. The market was 75 cents higher, probably a considerable result of the Venezuelan situation will be shipped to New York tomorrow or Wednesday. Silver was static, influenced by the action of the American committee next week, but the speculations in gold and silver have risen to $34.85. The stock markets were flat in all departments, especially American railroads. There was a slight recovery in the markets, but over the weekend, and Americans lost a good demeanour.
There was a thin attendance today and the market was discouraged. Foreign government securities fell a point or two on the tenor of a tender in the newspaper in regard to Peru. English consols for both money and account declined, English railway securities declined 1 to 2 percent in consequence of the real miners' strike. American railway securities were flatter on months from New York. Although a number of orders to purchase bonds and shares awaited execution, none was available. At one time Chicago, Illinois Central, and St. Paul touched 40 cents, following declines were also made: New York, Pennsylvania, one-fourth of 1 percent; Illinois Central, one-half of 1 percent; St. Paul common, one-fourth of 1 percent; New York Central, one-fourth of 1 percent; Pennsylvania, one-eighth of 1 percent; Wisconsin, 1 percent; Atlantic "A" bonds, 2 1/2 percent; Central Pacific, 14 percent; Denver & Rio Grande, 11 1/2 percent; Denver & Rio Grande common, 8 percent; Lake Shore & Michigan Southern, 2 percent; Louisville & Nashville, 1 percent; New York & West Shore, 1 1/2 percent, and Union Pacific, 11 1/2 percent.
Erie advanced three-eighths of 1 percent; Chicago & St. Louis advanced one-fourth of 1 percent; Atlantic securities declined 2 3/4 percent, and Canadian securities fell off seven-eighths of 1 percent. Greek united bonds closed at an advance. The talk among the brokers is to the effect that if President Cleveland would issue gold bonds to the amount of $100,000,000 it would materially improve the situation.
NEW YORK MONEY MARKET:
New York, July 31. More than usual activity was shown today in the money market, with the close of the session being marked by a decline in prices. The market opened with an advance, but as the day progressed, the sentiment turned against active buying, especially in gold, which closed 1 1/2 percent lower. The demand for silver was strong, and the price advanced 3/4 percent. The call money rate was 4 3/4 percent, a slight decrease from yesterday's 5 percent. The bank time rate was steady at 4 1/2 percent.
Preliminary trading, afterwards declined and closed easy. Loans ranged from 1 per cent home and Interest down to 3 per cent no minimum; last loan 3 per cent, closing offered at 1 per cent.

Hogs. There were hardly enough hogs
here to make a market. However, twenty-three
cars were received, the highest run since
early in June. Packers could not secure a
killing and kept out. But shippers and
fresh meat men, however, wanted hogs and
bought up the meager supply at prices
steady to a shade better than Saturday.
Good to choice light and butcher weight
hogs more or less sorted sold at from $6.00 to
$5.15 with prime sorted lights as high as
$5.25. Fair to good heavy and mixed packing grades sold at from $4.85 up to $3.10.
Rough heavies and throw-outs sold mostly
at $5.00 to $5.25. It was pretty close to a
steady market. The proportion of light
hogs, however, was a little larger than
Saturday and the market averaged a trifle
better, although 5c to 10c lower than last
Monday. Representative sales :

Sheep. Two doubles of fair westerns were
received. There was a moderate demand,
but reports from eastern markets were very
bad, bids were low and trading very slow. Fair
to good natives, $3.25-$3.25; fair to good westerns,
$3.80-$3.80; common and stock sheep,
$1.50-$3.00; good to choice 40 to 100-lb lambs,

CHICAGO, July 31, (Special Telegram to The):
The cattle market had a very slow
beginning; and notwithstanding the fact of
rather light receipts there was pretty steady
weakness during the morning in native cattle.
There were only about 1,600 head of them,
and by hard work salesmen succeeded in unloading without letting down prices to any
noteworthy extent. Heavy cattle were dis-
categorized as being weak, there appeared to be no
demand for anything weighing over 1,400 lbs.;
Indeed, averages of from 900 to 1,300 pounds were the weights
principally inquired for after, both by dressed
beef men and storers. Sales were largely at from $6.00 to $7.00 for steers and at from $5.75 to $7.75 for cows, heifers and bulls. The
receipts of western cattle were estimated at
2,500 head, a light supply for the time
of the year, but buyers did not want
them at any marked advance. The market
was stronger, however, as was to be expected.
The box market was quiet today and firm.
More bout arrived than anybody had looked for, but the number 12,300 head was modest, neat's-herd, and between blips and packers, who haggled at fully two-thirds of the daily hogtons; Indeed, choice hogs mixed and fancy hogs sold at a sturdy premium; than were paid on that day, a few of the latter reaching from $5.00 to $6.00. There were not many sales of light hogs at $5.15, and the bulk of heavy steers sold below $3.50. Common lots traded around $3.60, and culls averaged from $3 to $1.70.
There was a weaker tone to the sheep market, but no radical change in prices. The offering considerably reduced the demand and a large number of common bleaters had to be held over. To make a clearance, holders would have found it necessary to make a cut of from 10c to 25c on anything; not good enough for slingers, as there was no demand for feeders, Chicago intentions were spied at from $4.75 to $5, fair to good grades were salable at from $3.00 to $4.50 and poor to common were negotiated at from $1.75 to $3.25. Sales of lamb indicated a weaker market, from $3.75 to $5.75 was the range of quotations.
Receipts: Cattle, 14,000 head; calves, 1,500 head; hogs, 23,500 head; sheep, 12,000 head.

Chicago Tribune: Amateur I think a great dual of that bow. It has been in the family for fifty years. If I should lose it, I don't think I'd ever touch my violin again. No Next-Door Neighbor (wildly eager): How much money will buy that bow? Hypervisor: Anything, Truth: Or, Thirdly, When you go to bed, do you say the beautiful hymn about "If I should die before I wake"? Houston: Oh, no; inaccuracies great me. If I should die during sleep, how could I wake? Can I have a Silver Synchronizer? Chicago, July 24. A special from Denver, Colo., says that Attorney General Engle has rendered an opinion to the effect that it is within the power of the legislature to appropriate legislation for the organization of a national depository of silver bullion and the issue of silver coins therefrom subject to delivery and recoverable by the state in any amount of taxes. Fireworks tonight, Courtland boulevard. A Mill-Drop for Nadir. A Philadelphia war veteran has patented a device for protecting holders to a considerable extent from an enemy's fire. It is a folding shield of bullet-proof material, circular in form, which can be fixed to the barrel of a rifle. Its diameter is great enough to encompass an enemy and the shield is designed for the purpose of deflecting bullets. The inventor does not promise that it furnishes a complete protection, but he believes it would be found indispensible by soldiers and in a general engagement would be the means of greatly reducing the casualties. When not in use, it can be folded into portable compass and worn at the side like a bayonet. When expanded and fastened to the rifle barrel, an aperture on the line of sight shows which enables the soldier to take aim and use his pistol more effectively. The idea of the invention is already applied to large field guns on vehicles of war. The inventor has brought his device to the attention of military experts and they have endorsed it as practicable in operation. Length of Day. At Stockholm, Sweden, the longest day is 18 hours in length; at Spitsbergen, 21 months. At London, England, and Dublin, Ireland, the longest day is 15 hours. At Berlin, Germany, and Danzig, Russia, the longest day has 17 hours. At Trondheim, Norway, the longest day lasts from May 20 to July 20, without interruption. At St. Petersburg, Russia, and Tobolsk, Siberia, the longest day is 19 hours and the shortest day 15 hours. At Tornio, Finland, June 21 brought a day nearly 21 hours long, and Christmas one less than 24 hours in length. At New York, the longest day is about 15 hours; at Montreal, P.Q., it is 15 hours.

It was all well enough to bouoino violently
lently and righteously indignant fit Mr.
Pilsbury's outrageous desertion of his
wife and family , and to vow vongoaneo
upon the prepossessing servant girl who
had disappeared ns suddenly and as mys
teriously aa ho had and at the very
aroo time , too. But that neither
brought the deceitful husband within
range of Mrs. Bob Pilflbury's thoroughly
prepared tongno no > Iho saucy and
'
pretty fuco of the h'purfomaid though
Mrs. Pllnbury Htrenuviialy denied that
such u ernaturo could lio'.pretty within
roaoh of the lady's ilnjj'.bY nails , suDpon-
ing , of course , that tli9 , Sharming little
inlstrcss of Rose cottapjo could so far for
got herself. tt- -
Hut tlioro she was , dvnrf'Mrs. Pllsbury ,
and Portsmouth was nO Oldorvillo.
Mr.s. Pilsbury was liiado painfully
aware of tills latter filet in about three
minutes , when she perceived that not a
single man , woman orcnjijl ; ( in all the
crowd at the elation hcJsisHtyd to pay tlio
slightest attention t < jjmr something
that riho could not remember over to
have happened to hop < it < homo , "in hoi-
born days , " aa nho aftdr'ivfmls ' expressed
it. No , she was in u foal elty now ,
where everybody did not know every
body else , and where nobody at all know
her or cared a button for her or tlio
great wrong that , but a day before , had
excited all Cidprvlllo and the surround
ing country.
Hut Mrs. Pllsbury was shortly moved
to action by the recalling of the taunt of
that Imtofnl Mrs. January that "she
would soon settle her hiiHlmnd if ho had
eloped with the servant girl with some
thing more olTeetivothan toaral"
Mrs. Pilsbury waited a moment till
the busy ticket agent nceipcd to have a
second's rest from the inquisition : ) of the
ever-inquiring public * and then ap
preached him timidly with the direct
question :
' Dm you see a tall , dark-looking gentlemen -
tlomon , with side whiskers , got off the
earlv morning train from Cidervillo'1
'Accompanied by u rather piettv-
coking young lady tall nnd n blonde ,
ml "
Mrs. PUsbury had to catch her
ircatli ,
"Ycsl" was nil she could gasp , though
ho wanted to deny the "pretty looking"
mrt.
' And wearing n light blue hat ,
ivlth n largo ostrich feather ? "
"Yes ! " gasped the poor little woman
ignin , nnd this tlmo harder.
"And did plioliavo n , very plensant
miloV'askcil the ticket agent , evidently
ntorestod.
This was too much.
"Tho hussoyl" exclaimed tlio hulls-
nnnt Mrs. Bob Pilsbury , very inucli to
'
'bo nstonlslinicnt of the man of the
ickots.
Before ho Imd nn opportunity , however -
ever , to elicit further information than
ho moro fuel that the tall , blondoyoung
ntly was , according to the sweet faced ,
llstrosscd little woman nt the window , a
'hilssoy , ' ' Mrs. Bob had disappeared
through the dnnr.
A sudden rush of the throng nnd
some screaming on the part of the
oinitlo portion of it had caused her to
run suddenly out Into the street with
the rest to see what the excitement was.
Flames were bursting out of the upnov
vlndows of u Inrgo clntlr factory on the
ilock below , and engines were "tearing
down the street , followed by the usual
crowd. Soon the street was black with
loads.
Ouo of these heads belonged to the
nubarul of Mrs. Hob I'llsbury. Though
only n rear view was obtainable , the ox-
: ltcd , enterprising little mistress of
' 3oso Cottage succeeded by hard push-
'ng in getting so good n rear view that
< bo could almost have thumped Mr. Bob
vith the end of her parasol
But her moment of triumph Imd not
yet cQino. The dorclict husband dlsap-
> onrcd from her field of vision quito as
suddenly as ho had appeared thereon ,
nnd Mrs. Bob was bewildered.
The lire belched forth from the third
story , and horrors ! three pirls' faces
came for an instance to the windows of
the fourth anil then drew back.
Mrs. Bob was all of a tremble. She had
lover witnessed such a sight before.
She admitted , when afterwards she re-
sailed this scene , that her graceless hus
band's escapade did not exclusively absorb
serb her thoughts and emotions for that
ono moment.
But a chance remark of a benevolent-
looking old gentleman beside her caught
lior oar , and Mr. Pilsbury and the prepossessing -
possessing servant girl quickly and ex
clusively inlhtincd her imagination again.
" \Vo must hurry , " wild the old gentle
man to a young preacher who scorned
to bo his companion , ' 'or the happy
couple will grow impatient. An elopement -
mont , you know "
lint the crowd swayed back before tbo
clubs of three policemen , and Mrs.
Pilsbury was pushed out of hearing ,
* nd the benevolent old gentleman and
the preacher were pushed out of her
sight.
She soon caught a glimpse of them
again , however , on the opposite side of
the pavement and swiftly followed them
toward tbo center of the town. She
saw them enter a gate next to a church
and mount the stops of a quiet red brick
house , which she was sure was the
parsonage. How her heart beat !
There were several persons in the
street and she was unnoticed as she
crossed over to the church. Mrs. Bob
was. prepared with her speech for the
denouement. Every word of it was
choice , dramatic and"burning. It would
wither any man. Robert Pilsbury
would know the stuff she was made of.
She moved cautiously within the
shadow of the house of God , continually
going ever her speech. She could see
into the parlor through the side win
dow.
dow.Minnie
Minnie was- there ! The impudent ,
shameless minx , dressed up in a stylish
brand new blue cashmere , with hat and
trimmings to match , stood with her
back to the window. Mrs. Bob caught
Jiersolf a moment to regain her breath.
The next instant the form of Mr. Pils
bury appeared in the parlor ! Poor little
tlo wife ! There are sudden crises in life
when indecision paralyzes us for an in
stant. Then , without the guidance of
reason , wo do exactly the opposite of
what our reason , our determination
and our impulse hud agreed on , and we
ever after wonder why wo did so. Such
nn experience came to poor little Mrs.
Bob.
Bob.She
She dismissed her choice speech , her
indignation and her courage , and with
her bosom swelling with emotion , and
two great tears in her eyes , faced
squarely about and started away.
"Alary ! Mary ! Mary ! "
Now hho quickened her pace and fell
into run.
' Mary ! Mary ! Oh , Mary ! "
She knew that voice well enough , and
she Hod from it like a deer. But the
strain hud boon too great , and who had
not gone u blcck when she sank down
on a doorstop , fainting.
Her husband was at her side the same
moment.
Yes , Minnie had eloped. So had Mr.
Pilabury. That is , he hadgono to Ports
mouth the game time his pretty eorvant
girl had , and was there concerned in an
alTair of the heart with a mar
riage license and a preacher
as the sequel. But ho didn't , marry any
body. Ho only assisted his pretty serv
ant girl , who.se hard-hearted parent K
had wrongfully attempted to interfere
with her happiness in a union with a
very worthy young man said young
man having boon in the employ of Mr.
Pilsbury in Now York , and looking very
much like him.
"Women can never bo trusted in such
matters , you know , " Bald Pilsbury , ex
cusing his conduct , "or I should have
told Mrs , Bob. But there wasn't any
time to lose , either , for , you see , Min
nie's parents were determined to boat
us , and so 1 eloped too ! "

ASAMOSA , In. , July ! U. A peculiar nccl-
ilcnt \ , occurred ono tnilo nouth of Monllcollo ,
, this county. Harry Sanderson fell from n
lo.id of hay and not only dislocated his spinal
column between the thlnt nnd fourth vcr-
tobrw , but be also broke tbo pivot between.
the llrst nnd second vcrtet > rn nml tbo liga
ment which holds tno head In nn
erect position. Notwithstanding this tin-
usual nnd exceedingly dangerous dislocation
bo Is still nllvo and very easy , with pros-
poets of recovery. Mr. Sanderson , who Is a
farmer , was engaged In helping unload a
load of hay. Ho was on 'tho load nnu was
jerking the rope which snapped the horse hay
fork. When ulvlng It a decidedly hard Jerk
the rope broke and ho was precipitated to the
grounu , which ho struck with his
head. Ho was rendered Insen-
slblo for a fo\r moments only ,
for by the tlmo Mr. Ackemian , his brother-
in-law , had reached Ms sldo ho had risen
and tried to walk , bill his bond fell forward
on his breast , and be could not ralso It. Ho
began to stagger , but before ho foil ho was
supported by Mr. Ackerman , who laid him
on some hay until ho could bo removed to
the house. Ho was tnkon to the house and
put Ui bed. Ho complained of n pain In his
neck and \vns unable to exert any voluntary
motion of his head.
Dr. , T. Thomas was summoned at onco. Ho
found by an examination that tboro was not
only the dislocation , but a lonring loose of
the ligament that holds the head in an erect
position , nnd a fracture of the little pivoted
piece of bono that locks the llrst and
second vertebrae together. The man
bad to taico his hands and place
bis head Into desiroit positions , The
doctor ni'niinUtcrcd ' temporary treat
ment , and as soon as possible placed tbo
bead and neck into a plaster of p.irls cast.
Dr. Kunz was called in consultation and ho
verified the conclusions Dr. Thomas had
reached. Mr. Sanderson Is in cheerful
spirits nnd oats bis meals with regularity.
Yesterday ho also indulged in the luxury of
n smoke. If inflammation of the spinal chord
does not set in ho is likely lo live.
Tlio question of reducing the dislocation
has been discussed by the physicians and
they nro not Inclined to ndviso the experi
ment. There are cases on record where
such a dislocation has been reduced , but
tbo successful ones nro very raro. If the
ligaments are badly torn , ns the symptoms
Indicate , a stretching of the man to throw
tbo vertebra * into joint would bo likely to
result In a straight pull upon the spinal
cord , producing instant death. It Is possi
ble for Mr. Saunderson to get about again
without anything further being done , but
in that cnso his head would have to lie sup
ported by a cage like aQ'air resting upon bis
shoulders. It will bo remembered Unit such
a man lived in this part of the state a year
or two IRO , ami that ho was on the streets
of MouUcello a time or two. Thodislocntton
does not cause any pressure upon the spinal
cord ; In fact , the doctors say it is at the
only point wliero sui-b a favorable condition

WASHINGTON , July 31. Although
congress is ns yet eight days
olT the advance guard is hoginntnir to
make ita appearance. The rank and
llo ! will not coino before the latter part
of the week. Senator ( ionium , who
will bo the leader on the domrcrnllo
side of the senate , has returned from
his summer ontlng nt Saratoga. Sen
ator Quay arrived here Saturday night.
Senator Quay , by the way , Is in reality
nn ox-senator , as ho was absent from
Washington on March 4 last and failed
to qualify for the term to which ho had
Itcen elected by the Pennsylvania legis
lature. Speaker Crisp arrived last
night. Senator Stewart of Nevada , who
is looked upon as the free silver loader ,
was here yesterday , but left to attend ,
the silvur congress at Chicago.
It can bo stated as the consensus of
opinion of these three leaders that the
bill for the unconditional ro | > oal of the
Sherman silver purchase law will pass ,
the house ami senate. Mr. Stewart , who ,
has been famous In the past for his
speeches on silver , gives the assurance
that there will bo no attempt to Illlbus-
ter by either himself or his associates
in the senate. It was feared that the
various silver senators would delay the
vote on tlio repeal bill by almost Inter
minable speeches , n procedure which
could not bo cheeked owing to senatorial
courtesy , but Mr. Stewart , after consul
tation with the other free silver sen
ators , has concluded that n policy of de
lay would bo unwise.
Public opinion of the country at largo
demands repeal and the free silver
senators will make no attempt to defeat
it. They will content themselves with
concise speeches Hotting forth their ob
jections to the repeal of the Sherman
law. Then they will permit the bill to
pass. This program , ama/ng ! as It is in
view of the general expectation of a
long drr.wii contest , Is easily explained.
Mr. Stewart holds that the monthly
purchase of silver under the SJiornwn
law is not the cause of the present linan-
em ! depression , in spite of President
Cleveland's assertion to the contrary.
Ho maintains that the uncertainty in
busini'ss circles as to what is to bo done
with the tariff is really the cause for the
present stringency , lie knows that this
view is shared by many of his ojlleujruos
on b'tb the democratic and republican
sides. Ho argues , therefore , that the
best way to prove the accuracy of lii.i
position"is to permit the repeal of the
Sherman act and thereby Mop the
monthly purchase of 4,500,000 , ounces of
silver. In the sumo court-e of six or
eight months the financial situation , ac
cording to Mr. Stewart , will bo as bad as
it irt at present , if not worse , because
the uncertainty as to the tarilT will have
intonsiliod it. Having thus proved that
the pnrcliiibo of silver was not the cause-
of the trouble the free silver men in the
house and senate buliuve they will bo
able to appeal for some legislation in bo-
thaif ol silver , and they think that pub-
lic'opinion will concede that something
is due to them. Then Homo silver measure
will be introduced which will be nccopt--
nblo to both houses. This in Senator
Stewart's policy. If ho follows it , as is
his present intention , there seems to bo
not good reason why the silver question
cannot bo disposed of early in the extra
session.
Today will settle vhothcr the treasury
is to purchase the full amount of 4,500-
000 ounces of silver under the Sherman
law lor the current mouther whether
it can permit the purchases to fall below
that amount. Today is the last pur
chase day of the month. Up to date
there has'bccn a total of about 2,280,000 ,
ounces purchased for tlio July account.
In the past the heaviest purchase of
silver in any ono day has not exceeded
1,000,000 ounces. In order to roach the
limit of 4,500,000 , ounces the silver men
would be obliged to dispose of 2,420,030 ,
ounces today. The chances are
that the offerings will not exceed these
of the last few purchase days , so that a
total of 2,500,000 , , ounces for the entire
month seems a safe estimate.
There Is a growing impression that
William M. Springer of Illinois will
again bo placed at the head of the ways
and means committee , notwithstanding
the reports current for the last four
months that ho would bo relegated to
Koine obscure and harmless chairman
ship. One of the veterans of congress ,
who fought Mr. Sprinjrer two years ago ,
and has boon against him ever blnco ,
concedes that Mr. Springer will again
head tlio tarilT committee. "If there
had been a general shaking up in the
house , " said the veteran , " .Springer
would have gone tJ the rear , but as the
congressmen come to town they show
a tendency toward organi/.lng the
house with the old Man" of olll-
COI-H throughout. There will be
no contest ever the speakoi'Hhip , and
the present prospects are that the
old clerk , the old doorkeeper , the old
Borgeiint-at-arms and the old liounopo.il-
master will bo re - . This
tendency toward rnorgani/.utlon on the
old lines will extend to the committed
chairmanships and will prevent a ,
general shaking up. The retiring of
Springer and Hotmail would certainly
create inucli bad blood. It would bo a
blow ut tjio morals of the now house at
Its very outset , Mr , Crisp is too con-
Borvativo a man to wish to stir up such
ill-feelings , and ho will undoubtedly
yield to the present tendency to re-
organlxo on the old linos.

AND SO ON TO EDGED.
New that she was in Portsmouth suddenly deposited, as she had been, on the planks of the station, and the train gone like a flash she realized for the first time that she had a task on her hands such as she had not contemplated.
It was all well enough to boom violently and righteously indignant at Mr. Pilsbury's outrageous desertion of his wife and family, and to vow vengeance upon the prepossessing servant girl who had disappeared as suddenly and as mysteriously as he had and at the very same time, too. But that neither brought the deceitful husband within range of Mrs. Bob Pilsbury's thoroughly prepared tongue nor the saucy and pretty face of the hypocrite maid though Mrs. Pilsbury strenuously denied that such an energy could be pretty within reach of the lady's indignant nails, supposing, of course, that this charming little mistress of Rose cottage could so far forget herself.
But there she was, daring Mrs. Pilsbury, and Portsmouth was no Olderville.
Mrs. Pilsbury was had sadly painfully aware of this latter fact in about three minutes, when she perceived that not a single man, woman, or child; in all the crowd at the station had shown the slightest attention to something that she could not remember ever to have happened to her before, "in her born days," as she afterwards expressed it. No, she was in a foreign city now, where everybody did not know everybody else, and where nobody at all knew her or cared a button for her or the great wrong that, but a day before, had excited all Clarendon and the surrounding country.
But Mrs. Pilsbury was shortly moved to action by the recalling of the taunt of that imputant Mrs. January that "she would soon settle her handsome if he had eloped with the servant girl with something more effective than to argue." Mrs. Pilsbury waited a moment till the busy ticket agent accepted to have a second's rest from the inquisition of the ever-inquiring public and then approached him timidly with the direct question:
"Do you see a tall, dark-looking gentleman, accompanied by a rather pretty-looking young lady, tall and blonde, and wearing a light blue hat, with a large ostrich feather?"
"Yes!" gasped the poor little woman, signing, and this time harder.
"And did they have a very pleasant smile?" asked the ticket agent, evidently interested.
This was too much.
"The husband!" exclaimed the half-stunned Mrs. Bob Pilsbury, very much to the astonishment of the man of the tickets.
Before he had an opportunity, however, to elicit further information than that the tall, blonde young lady was, according to the sweet-faced, distressed little woman at the window, a "husband," Mrs. Bob had disappeared through the door.
A sudden rush of the throng and some screaming on the part of the comical portion of it had caused her to run suddenly out into the street with the rest to see what the excitement was. Flames were bursting out of the upper windows of a large cloth factory on the block below, and engines were "tearing down the street, followed by the usual crowd. Soon the street was black with smoke.
One of these heads belonged to the husband of Mrs. Bob Pilsbury. Though only a rear view was obtainable, the exalted, enterprising little mistress of Bosc Cottage succeeded by hard pushing in getting such a good rear view that she could almost have thumped Mr. Bob with the end of her parasol.
But her moment of triumph had not yet come. The door of her husband disappeared from her field of vision quite as suddenly as he had appeared thereon, and Mrs. Bob was bewildered.
The fire belched forth from the third story, and horrors! three girls' faces came for an instant to the windows of the fourth and then drew back.
Mrs. Bob was all of a tremble. She had never witnessed such a sight before. She admitted, when afterwards she recalled this scene, that her graceless husband's escapade did not exclusively absorb her thoughts and emotions for that one moment.
But a chance remark of a benevolent-looking old gentleman beside her caught her ear, and Mr. Pilsbury and the prepossessing servant girl quickly and exclusively engaged her imagination again.
"We must hurry," whispered the old gentleman to a young preacher who seemed to be his companion, "or the happy couple will grow impatient. An elopement, you know?"
But the crowd swayed back before the clubs of three policemen, and Mrs. Pilsbury was pushed out of hearing, and the benevolent old gentleman and the preacher were pushed out of her sight.
She soon caught a glimpse of them again, however, on the opposite side of the pavement and swiftly followed them toward the center of the town. She saw them enter a gate next to a church and mount the steps of a quiet red brick house, which she was sure was the parsonage. How her heart beat!
There were several persons in the street and she was unnoticed as she crossed over to the church. Mrs. Bob was prepared with her speech for the denouement. Every word of it was choice, dramatic, and burning. It would wither any man. Robert Pilsbury would know the stuff she was made of.
She moved cautiously within the shadow of the house of God, continually going over her speech. She could see into the parlor through the side window.
Minnie was there! The impudent, shameless minx, dressed up in a stylish brand new blue cashmere, with hat and trimmings to match, stood with her back to the window. Mrs. Bob caught herself a moment to regain her breath.
The next instant the form of Mr. Pilsbury appeared in the parlor! Poor little wife! There are sudden crises in life when indecision paralyzes us for an instant. Then, without the guidance of reason, we do exactly the opposite of what our reason, our determination, and our impulse had agreed on, and we ever after wonder why we did so. Such an experience came to poor little Mrs. Bob.
Bob. She dismissed her choice speech, her indignation, and her courage, and with her bosom swelling with emotion, and two great tears in her eyes, faced squarely about and started away.
"Mary! Mary! Mary!"
Now she quickened her pace and fell into a run.
"Mary! Mary! Oh, Mary!"
She knew that voice well enough, and she had from it like a deer. But the strain had been too great, and who had not gone a black when she sank down on a doorstep, fainting.
Her husband was at her side the same moment.
Yes, Minnie had eloped. So had Mr. Pilsbury. That is, he had gone to Portsmouth the game time his pretty servant girl had, and was there concerned in an affair of the heart with a marriage license and a preacher as the sequel. But he didn't marry anybody. He only assisted his pretty servant girl, whose hard-hearted parents he had wrongfully attempted to interfere with her happiness in a union with a very worthy young man said young man having been in the employ of Mr. Pilsbury in New York, and looking very much like him.
"Women can never be trusted in such matters, you know," said Pilsbury, excusing his conduct, "or I should have told Mrs. Bob. But there wasn't any time to lose, either, for, you see, Minnie's parents were determined to beat us, and so I eloped too!" Fireworks tonight, Courtland beach. Dromilla Civil Service Hilling; FORT WAYNE, Ind., July 10. The Postoffice department has made a ruling on the civil service rules that will bring joy to the hearts of democrats all over the country. One week ago the Fort Wayne post office changed hands, Cecil W. Jiggins, republican, retiring in favor of Wright Rockhill. The employees of the office, all democrats, were routing canyon under the impression that the civil service law secured them in their positions, for a time at least, until the new postmaster could find some other than that of patronage upon which to base their recommendation.
Friday, however, Chief Money Order Clerk Adams, Assistant Money Order Clerk Clarence Swaim, and Stamp Clerk Polarsou were surprised to receive written requests from the postmaster to take effect at once. It was then discovered that Postmaster Rockhill had asked for an Interpretation of the civil Service rules as regards certain employees. The department ruled that the postmaster, inasmuch as he was held responsible for the acts of his subordinates, had a right to appoint those employees who handled the money of the office, namely, the Stamp clerks and money order clerks.
TIVI THIS was the Mayor's Office.
VINITA, I. T. July 1. Word having been received that a band of cattle thieves contemplated making a raid on the ranches in this vicinity, a deputy United States marshal and a police officer were posted out to intercept the gang last night. However, a battle ensued, and Ralph Hallock was shot and killed, and Hill Somers was fatally wounded. Both were members of the thieves' gang. The others, some six in number, escaped.
Fireworks tonight, Courtland beach.
An extraordinary accident occurred one tile south of Monarch, this county. Harry Sanderson fell from a load of hay and not only dislocated his spinal column between the third and fourth vertebrae, but he also broke the pivot between the first and second vertebrae and the ligament which holds the head in an erect position. Notwithstanding this usual and exceedingly dangerous dislocation, he is still alive and very easy, with prospects of recovery. Mr. Sanderson, who is a farmer, was engaged in helping unload a load of hay. He was on the load and was jerking the rope which snapped the horse hay fork. When giving it a decidedly hard jerk, the rope broke and he was precipitated to the ground, which he struck with his head. He was rendered insensible for a few moments only, for by the time Mr. Ackerman, his brother-in-law, had reached his side, he had risen and tried to walk, but his head fell forward on his breast, and he could not raise it. He began to stagger, but before he fell, he was supported by Mr. Ackerman, who laid him on some hay until he could be removed to the house. He was taken to the house and put to bed. He complained of a pain in his neck and was unable to exert any voluntary motion of his head.
Dr. T. Thomas was summoned at once. He found by an examination that there was not only the dislocation, but a tearing loose of the ligament that holds the head in an erect position, and a fracture of the little pivoted piece of bone that locks the first and second vertebrae together. The man had to take his hands and place his head into desired positions. The doctor administered temporary treatment, and as soon as possible placed the head and neck into a plaster of paris cast. Dr. Kunz was called in consultation and he verified the conclusions Dr. Thomas had reached. Mr. Sanderson is in cheerful spirits and eats his meals with regularity. Yesterday he also indulged in the luxury of a smoke. If inflammation of the spinal cord does not set in, he is likely to live.
The question of reducing the dislocation has been discussed by the physicians and they are not inclined to advise the experiment. There are cases on record where such a dislocation has been reduced, but the successful ones are very rare. If the ligaments are badly torn, as the symptoms indicate, a stretching of the man to throw the vertebrae into joint would be likely to result in a straight pull upon the spinal cord, producing instant death. It is possible for Mr. Sanderson to get about again without anything further being done, but in that case his head would have to be supported by a cage like an umbrella resting upon his shoulders. It will be remembered that such a man lived in this part of the state a year or two ago, and that he was on the streets of Monarch a time or two. The dislocation does not cause any pressure upon the spinal cord; in fact, the doctors say it is at the only point where such a favorable condition exists.

It looked a little bit like old times in police court yesterday. The audience was large and the gang or prisoners brought up numbered an even two dozen. Six tough-looking mugs were brought up first to answer to the charge of vagrancy. All of them claimed to be Denver laborers working their way back east. The judge let them all go. He was sorry for it afterward, for he learned that two of the tramps who worked the Denver rag on him were real Omaha bums. The next time a man tries that racket, he will have to prove that he has been thrown out of employment in the Queen City of the Plains.
After the six hobos had been turned loose, a little fellow who gave his name as John Kelly and his age as 15 years was called out. The lad said that he had been making a living by selling papers in Colorado Springs but that times got so hard that nobody would buy a paper and so he decided to travel toward the east via the H. & M. boxcar route. "Skip out," said the judge, and the ragged urchin made a polite little bow, said "thank you," and inclined slowly out of the door.
Results on the Doctors.
MOUNT PLEASANT, Ia., July 31. Two prominent doctors of this city have gotten into deep water by making a blunder in the prosecution of a faith healer, who came here last spring to operate upon the credulity of Henry county people. Francis Warnon commenced to hold meetings in a church here in May and professed healing by faith. He did not do a very lucrative business, though several persons allowed him to try his remedy upon them for various bodily ills. Dr. A.Y. McClure and C.R. Marsh had him arrested and commenced prosecution under the Iowa laws for practicing medicine without a certificate, but because of a technicality in the information, the prosecution failed. Now Warnon comes back at the two physicians named with a suit filed in the district court for damages because of the prosecution, the amount claimed being $10,000 from each.
Computational Here in Texas a Winner.
CHICAGO, July 31. Mrs. Lucille Hodnoy of Galveston, Tex., who has been tramping from Dallas to Chicago since May 10, arrived at Englewood, a suburb of Chicago, yesterday, and she completed the technical part of the wager by walking into Chicago this morning, registering at the Polk street depot. Mrs. Hodnoy started from Dallas on May 10 on a wager that she would walk to Chicago by August 1, and she wins by a day and wins easily. She has been accompanied all the way by her husband, O.J. Hodnoy, and W.W. Halliday, who represent the losers of the wager. Mrs. Hodnoy is 21 years old, pretty and engaging, and the amount that she wins by her formidable walk is $5,000, said to be one-quarter of the amount the gentleman backing her won by her walk.

CALGARY, Kan., July 31. The thousands of farmers along the border of the Chisholm Trail heard with panic yesterday that another month will find them in the predicament they found themselves in last spring. In possession of good homes, if lucky, or out in the cold if unfortunate in making selections. Although Secretary of War Hugo Smith is in the northwest in President McKinley's private car, his secretary, Mr. Minis, is pushing the details with vigor. Mr.
Sims thinks that September 1 will be the day hot in the president's proclamation, which will be issued very soon after he gets back to Washington from Gray Gables.

THINK IT WILL BE REPEALED
Purchase Senate of the Sherman Law is How Doomed to Die.
LEADING SENATORS ON THE SHERMAN LAW
Slowly Olivia A through Guess That It Will Not Sprinkle Very Likely to Reach His Goal Already Arriving.
WASHINGTON, July 31. Although congress is not yet eight days off, the advance guard is beginning to make its appearance. The rank and file will not come before the latter part of the week. Senator Gonom, who will be the leader on the democratic side of the senate, has returned from his summer outing at Saratoga. Senator Quay arrived here Saturday night. Senator Quay, by the way, is in reality an ex-senator, as he was absent from Washington on March 4 last and failed to qualify for the term to which he had been elected by the Pennsylvania legislature. Speaker Crisp arrived last night. Senator Stewart of Nevada, who is looked upon as the free silver leader, was here yesterday, but left to attend the silver congress at Chicago.
It can be stated as the consensus of opinion of these three leaders that the bill for the unconditional repeal of the Sherman silver purchase law will pass, the house and senate. Mr. Stewart, who has been famous in the past for his speeches on silver, gives the assurance that there will be no attempt to filibuster by either himself or his associates in the senate. It was feared that the various silver senators would delay the vote on the repeal bill by almost interminable speeches, a procedure which could not be checked owing to senatorial courtesy, but Mr. Stewart, after consultation with the other free silver senators, has concluded that a policy of delay would be unwise.
Public opinion of the country at large demands repeal and the free silver senators will make no attempt to defeat it. They will content themselves with concise speeches setting forth their objections to the repeal of the Sherman law. Then they will permit the bill to pass. This program, amazing as it is in view of the general expectation of a long drawn contest, is easily explained.
Mr. Stewart holds that the monthly purchase of silver under the Sherman law is not the cause of the present financial depression, in spite of President Cleveland's assertion to the contrary. He maintains that the uncertainty in business circles as to what is to be done with the tariff is really the cause for the present stringency. He knows that this view is shared by many of his opponents on both the democratic and republican sides. He argues, therefore, that the best way to prove the accuracy of his position is to permit the repeal of the Sherman act and thereby stop the monthly purchase of 4,500,000 ounces of silver. In the course of six or eight months, the financial situation, according to Mr. Stewart, will be as bad as it is at present, if not worse, because the uncertainty as to the tariff will have intensified it. Having thus proved that the purchase of silver was not the cause of the trouble, the free silver men in the house and senate believe they will be able to appeal for some legislation in behalf of silver, and they think that public opinion will concede that something is due to them. Then some silver measure will be introduced which will be acceptable to both houses. This is Senator Stewart's policy. If he follows it, as is his present intention, there seems to be no good reason why the silver question cannot be disposed of early in the extra session.
Today will settle whether the treasury is to purchase the full amount of 4,500,000 ounces of silver under the Sherman law for the current month whether it can permit the purchases to fall below that amount. Today is the last purchase day of the month. Up to date there has been a total of about 2,280,000 ounces purchased for the July account. In the past the heaviest purchase of silver in any one day has not exceeded 1,000,000 ounces. In order to reach the limit of 4,500,000 ounces, the silver men would be obliged to dispose of 2,420,030 ounces today. The chances are that the offerings will not exceed these of the last few purchase days, so that a total of 2,500,000 ounces for the entire month seems a safe estimate.
There is a growing impression that William M. Springer of Illinois will again be placed at the head of the ways and means committee, notwithstanding the reports current for the last four months that he would be relegated to some obscure and harmless chairmanship. One of the veterans of congress, who fought Mr. Springer two years ago, and has been against him ever since, concedes that Mr. Springer will again head the tariff committee. "If there had been a general shaking up in the house," said the veteran, "Springer would have gone to the rear, but as the congressmen come to town they show a tendency toward organizing the house on the old lines. There will be no contest for the speakership, and the present prospects are that the old clerk, the old doorkeeper, the old Sergeant-at-Arms and the old Sergeant-at-Arms will be re-appointed. This tendency toward reorganization on the old lines will extend to the committee chairmanships and will prevent a general shaking up. The retirement of Springer and Hotmail would certainly create much bad blood. It would be a blow to the morals of the new house at its very outset, Mr. Crisp is too conservative a man to wish to stir up such ill-feelings, and he will undoubtedly yield to the present tendency to reorganize on the old lines.

May Herald the Crop Movement.
ST. PAUL, July 31. The farming industry has struck the grain buyers of the state of Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota and the major of crops express doubt as to their ability to meet the obligation, Money is not flowing in this direction, as usual at this time of the year, and the banks have no money to lend. A plan for moving the crops out of the barn has been proposed and is being adopted in certain parts of southern Minnesota and will very probably be generally adopted as the practical solution of the question. The grain men will give their checks for grain purchased from the farmers, payable ten days after date, which would allow time for the collection of drafts against consignments, but will only enter such drafts for collection. This plan makes a division of the burden. Even with this arrangement, the crops must move slowly, and farmers who are obliged to sell much will find themselves much inconvenienced.

After weeks of unremitting labor on the
part of. freight agents ana their assistants
In checking rates to conform with the
maximum rate law which was to have taken
effect August 1 , their labors have gene for
naught.
To the majority of thorn the action of
Chancellor Woolworth In asking an Injunc
tion restraining representatives of certain
roaili from putting In force the maximum
rate law was a complete surprise.
"I liavo never worked so hard as In the
last two weeks , " said 10. H. Wood , assistant
general freight agent of the Union
1'aclllc , "checking up the rates In order
that wo might have our tariffs practically
complete when tlio law took oltcct. The ac
tion of the court was telegraphed mo while
cnrotito homo , meeting me at some station
along the roiul. I had 'fired' ' llgurc.1 Into the
boys for their now tarlil sheets and had In
my grip the remaining figures for the last
tariff which wo would have Issued today.
And so the mountain labored and brought
forth a mouse.
"Instructions have been ftiuod to all
agents that the former order withdrawing
nil the old tariffs has been canceled anil
that the old rates will remain in force
pending the sett lenient of the turn affairs
have taken In the courts. "
Mr. George Crosby , general freight agent
of the Burlington , sang sweet and low ,
"Homo Again from a Foreign Shore. " when
the representative of TUB Ben called at his
ofllco In liurllngton headquarters.
"Our labor hasn't amounted to very much , "
said the shrewd manipulator of rates for the
Ilurlington , uln view of the action of the
stockholders. Wo have notified our agents
that the old rates are restored and wo will
continue to do business under them until the
courts decide the constitutionality of tlio
maximum rate law. "
, . There was an elongated smllo upon Gen
eral Manager lloldretro's face when the re
porter asked If ho know of tiny more Injunc
tions to follow those already prayed for and
granted.
"Heally I can't " ho "
say , replied , "although
ns everybody seems to bo in an enjoining
humor Omaha ought to take a hand and un
join something. "
"Theiulheru Is no relief from the Lincoln

Omaha Is all right. She is on an equality
with Lincoln , and her trade would seem to
indicate that she Is big enough to take care of

Vongcnnco of the People.
"Will not the action of the railroads
call down a greater vengeance from the people
ple than If the rate law had been tried on its
merits and then declared unconstitutional ? "
"I think , " replied the general manager in
a relloctlvo mood , "that the people will
loam to treat railroads inoro lilto private
business enterprises than m.tho manner
heretofore , They have ntrhts as well as the
public. Whhe the action of the stockholders
was n surprise It shows how closely the
moneyed men of the corporations have fol
lowed the law. Ilcyond this there is little to
say. The courts will have to pass upon the
legality of the measure. It is beyond my province -
" inco to say what their Until findings will bo. "
Ono thing Is certain , however. Somebody
has broken faith , for It was the agreement
of the presidents that the law should go into
effect and ; iftcr n full and fair trial , then If.
the law was as vicious as represented the
roads could conscientiously swear to the decrease -
crease In earnings and ask for relief.
Several days airo , it was intimated that
Hon. J. M. Woolworth had gone to Boston at
the instance of President Perkins to consult
with the stockholders with a view to bring
ing such action as was commenced Saturday
in Judge Uundy's court , notwithstanding
vhat President Perkins had obligated him
self to put the law In Torco on the Burling

At the meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners ycstorday forenoon , the princi
pal business on hand was the hearing of the
charges against Constaolo Alan Dailoy , who
Is accused of being 5 non resident of the
West Omaha precinct , where ho was elected ,
nnd willful maladministration In otllco.
Three witnesses wcro examined at the
morning session , the effort of the prosecu
tion , which was conducted by Assistant
County Attorney Troup , being diivctod to
an attempt to provo non residence in the
precinct.
In the afternoon , County Clerk ISackett
was called , nnd reail from the record to
show that D.iiloy was appointed constable
for Union precinct in Jniui.iry , IS'JJ ' , 'nnd
served until the election last November ,
when Frank Knight was elected but failed
to qualify. Dailoy did not lllo any subse
quent or additional bond.
Assistant County Attorney Day was called
and a wrangle ensued over the admission of
evidence to the affect that the defendant
now has two charges of embezzlement pend
ing against him in the criminal courts.
The evidence was ruled out , as no convic
tion had yet occurred on cither rhargn , nnd
Justice of the Peace Edgcrton was called to
tlio stand. Ho did not think D.iilcy was n
resident of West Omaha precinct , or had
been since election. Before election Dailoy
told witness that If ha could get the iiomlua-
tioi 1 1 West Omaha ho would run nnd tnko
his o mnccs. Ho was there election day ,
nnd witness had seen him in the
precinct but once sinco. Ho never
know of his having lived in the precinct ,
although well acquainted with nearly nil the
residents there. Ho could not say where
the defendant had boon sleeping for the past
two weeks , but know that ho formerly lived
on Sixteenth street , in Omaha.
On cross-examination ho said ho was as
positive as a man could bo that Dailoy was
not a resident of the precinct and would
swear positively that Daily had not had n
residence there for the last year and a half.
The state rested , and the defense moved
to dismiss , but the board advised that side
to put in its ovidcnco if it had any.
Constable Dailey was called , and swore that
his residence was West Omaha precinct and
that ho had lived there for nearly four years.
Ho had voted there for that time and had
not voted anywhere else.
He testified on cross-examination that ho
was n single man and occasionally slept down
town , bolng in Omaha quite a little , .and
lodged on Charles street , where ho had a
room. Ho resided with different people in
different places. Ho admitted that hq was
n resident of West Omnlia when ho applied
for appointment as constable in Union pre
cinct and was appointed. Ho declined to
sny where ho had lived for tlio last month
When required to answer , ho said ho had
lived in West Omaha a part of the time , nnd
a part of it ho hadn't. When required testate
state when and where ho had slaved in West
Omaha in that time , ho figured it out that
he stayed ono night at Shannon's and ono
night at Tlotz park , nnd that was all the
time ho had stayed there in tha last month.
Frank Shannon , justice of the peace for
the West Omaha procinot , has disentangled
himself from his difficulties as far ns ho
could by handing in Ills resignation , which
was accepted by the Board of Commissioners

Jacob L. Qoos , n driver In the
mploy of Christopher Sharnwobor , was run
ver and almost Instantly killed by the cars
at the B. ft M. crossing on South Seven-
.oenth street at 7:50 : o'clock last evening.
The deceased was returning from his dally
, vork In his wagon and was attempting to
ross the track when killed.
According to Ernest Ktirnatz , who resides
it 1211 South Seventeenth strcot , In the 1m-
nedlnto vicinity whcru the accident oc-
urred , the unfortunate man never noticed
.ho . approach of B. & M. frdlght train 82 ,
rawn by engine 417 , with P. C. Hawkins
us engineer.
Karnatz claims that It was purely an accl-
lent as the train was going nt the usual rate
f speed within the city limits nnd that'
oos when noarmg the crossing on the do-
line put the stake brake on tlio wagon ns
hard ns possible.
The horses attached to Goos' wngon were
already on the crossing when the cowcatcher
f the engine struck the front end of the
wagon , throwing the doomed driver about
en feet In the air. Ho landed
the track where the ponderous
whcolsof _ the engine crushed the life out of
im. Ono of the horses was thrown along
side the track , while n portion of tlio wagon
and the other horse wcro carried to the Six
teenth street vinductnbou t one block distant ,
before the train was finally brought to n
stop. The eyewitness aforesaid said ho
ran to the sitot where the body was thrown.
After gasping n few times Gees expired.
nrntzy then notified the police by tele-
hone from the I'nxton & Vlorling Iron
works.
Another person claiming to have been an
eyewitness | ls n young man named Eugene
Hichter. residing at 813 Leavcnworth street.
IIo stated that the flagman at the crossing
was not nt his post , having pone home for
supper. He related substantially the sauiu
story as the first witness.

the accident from a motor train on the Six
teenth street viaduct nnd who claims to
have notified the authorities first , is Jerry
Murphy , a block watchman. He says ho
heard the engine whistle several times nnd ,
looking in the dircctiou of the crossing , saw
the accident.
According to keys found in the dead man's
pockets lie belonged to Lodge No. 4 , Knights
of Pythias.
Ho was about 33 years of ago nnd unmar
ried. The victim had no relatives in this
country. Ills employer describes him as a
sober and industrious man who had worked
for him about two years.

Clav M. Greene and J. Cheovor Goodwin's
now spectacular comic opera , "Africa , " in
which Mr. George Thatcherlind his operatic
extravaganza company are appearing , comes
to ] Boyd's theater tills evening for an en
gagement of two nights.
"Africa" was written expressly for this
organization , the peculiar talents of. some of
the principals being considered in the crea
tion of the characters in the piece. The
reputation of the librettists is too well es
tablished to leave any doubt as to the in
terest , originality and lucidity of the story ,
which is said to give any number of oppor
tunities to those having in charge the em
bellishment of the main theuio. ' 'Africa" is
unusually rich from a scenic point of view ,
all the settings from the six scenes being
from the brush of ono of America's foremost
artists in this line Mr. John A. Thompson
of the Hollis Street theater , Boston while
the costumes , of which there nro over 300 ,
nre strictly in Keeping with the spectacular
nature of the production as n whole. Add
to this any amount of bright , catchy music
and n piosenting company the like of which
lias never before boon seen In a presentation
of this kind , and you have an entertainment
that is certain to find favor with tlio masses.
The company that is appearing in the cast
of "Africa" numbers
over seventy people ,
including the heretofore unheard-of number
of twenty-six principals , most of whom are
established favorites in this city. This
feature alone moans an enormous outlay on
the part of the promoters of the enterprise ,
Messrs. Thatcher , Ulch and Harris , but
believing that the public would appreciate
their efforts to give them something now
nnd meritorious in every respect they did
not , hesitate to incur the expense of carrying
so protentions un organization. Seats are
now on sale.

TILLY AS A MIND KEADER.
Great I'rnllcloiicy n * n I'roTessnr nT Unlit-
toroit TliniiKht.
Colonel Tilly Is at present engaeod In the
enjoyable pastitno of a mad race with the
colony of river front squatters. Just at this
time the colonel Is several lengths In the
load , but the homo stretch Is not yet en
tered , However , the ocolonel is the prime
favorite In the bookings nnd ho-will prob
ably distance the festive squatters , who are
handicapped.
Those squatters who have entered Into an
agreement with the city to remove their
present habitations and level their shanties
to the ground are those with whom
the colonel Is contesting. These
particular squatters nro not at nil choice
about tlio location to which they remove and
are willing to set down their huts at almost
any convenient place where thuro is suf
ficient unoccupied territory. It causes them
but little worriment whether a pleco of
ground they covet is private property or a
portion of a public thorough faro. They huvo
never yet contracted th'o habit of paying
rent , and show no desire to cultivate the
acquaintance of tlio rental agent. About all
they seem to care to accomplish is to capture
from the city the $ ' , ' 0 or $23 that is to ha paid
them when they remove. They have no idea
of ceasing to be squatters.
Colonel Tilly has made a study of squatter
character and it is said that he can tell by
the twinkle of a squatter's eye just what Is
passing through his mind. The other day
the colonel espied one of the colony and , like
Frank Hansom with the buffalo , ho looked
him in the oyo. Immediately the colonel
know that the squatter had evil intentions
toward the community. Ho read in that
cj'c that the squatter was preparing to pull
up stakes down on the river front and the
first piece of unoccupied territory ho came
to would drop his shanty there and remain
until again compelled to niovoon. Colonel
Tilly thought to himself : "Here I am the
inspector of buildlttgfi of this metropolis of
tha commonwealth of Nebraska. My duty is
to the taxpayers. I'll just drop suddenly
like onto that squatter and frustrate his ill-
laid plans. " The colonel did so , and ho
directed Uncle Jerry Snowdon , one of his inspectors
specters , to pay n visit to Shantytown nnd
watch the movements of that squatter with
tlio give away eye. Uncle Jerry did so , nnd
lie found that Colonel Tilly is a mind reader
from away back. The squatter had his
miserable excuse for a house on skids and
was iu the act of seeking a now loc.ition.
Ho could not tell where ho was going , ns ho
did not know. Ho proposed to bo ono less of
the colony , and by a change of location
hoped to secure the $2,5 the city had voted
him to remove. Uncle Jerry informed him
that a permit to move a building was neces
sary and that Colonel Tilly issued them at
so much per is.sue.
The bewildered and half angry squatter ,
accompanied by his interesting family and
all their friends , p.ud a visit to the city hall
and dropped in on Clerk Carter in the build
ing inspector's olllce. Mr. Carter is always
interesting , and for an hour previous to
Colonel Tilly's arrival ho entertained his
visitors with the story of his visit to Windsor
ser castle in years gene by when ho bore ono
of the proudest titles in all Europe.
When Colonel Tilly arrived ho managed
by a liberal application of bad English ,
Sioux nnd the mother tongue to convoy to
the squatter the information that the afore
said squatter should remain in his present
location until ho displayed n lease of n picco
of private ground and that this thing of people
ple blocking the public highways by taking
up their residences there must cease. The
snuattor submitted and is still ono of tlio in
teresting river front colony.
Colonel Tilly is causing a strict watch to
bo kept on the squatters nnd they will noj
bo permitted to settle wherever they desire.

TOIL THAT WENT FOR NAUGHT
Local instruction of the Mountain that Brought Forth a Mouse.
RAILROADS RESTORE OLD TARIFF SHEETS
All of the English Protocol to Have been Proclamatorily Surprised at the Late let turn of Opinion of
Until now, the Note.
After weeks of unremitting labor on the part of freight agents and their assistants in checking rates to conform with the maximum rate law which was to have taken effect August 1, their labors have gone for naught.
To the majority of them, the action of Chancellor Woolworth in asking an Injunction restraining representatives of certain railroads from putting in force the maximum rate law was a complete surprise.
"I have never worked so hard as in the last two weeks," said E. H. Wood, assistant general freight agent of the Union Pacific, "checking up the rates in order that we might have our tariffs practically complete when the law took effect. The action of the court was telegraphed to me while en route home, meeting me at some station along the road. I had 'fired' the last figures into the boys for their new tariff sheets and had in my grip the remaining figures for the last tariff which we would have issued today.
And so the mountain labored and brought forth a mouse.
Instructions have been found to all agents that the former order withdrawing all the old tariffs has been canceled and that the old rates will remain in force pending the settlement of the turn affairs have taken in the courts."
Mr. George Crosby, general freight agent of the Burlington, sang sweet and low, "Home Again from a Foreign Shore," when the representative of THE BAN called at his office in Burlington headquarters.
"Our labor hasn't amounted to very much," said the shrewd manipulator of rates for the Burlington, in view of the action of the stockholders. We have notified our agents that the old rates are restored and we will continue to do business under them until the courts decide the constitutionality of the maximum rate law."
There was an elongated smile upon General Manager Holdrect's face when the reporter asked if he knew of any more Injunctions to follow those already prayed for and granted.
"Heavens, I can't say," he replied, "although, as everybody seems to be in an enjoining humor, Omaha ought to take a hand and unjoin something."
"Then there is no relief from the Lincoln differential!" asked the newspaper man.
"Not under existing circumstances," replied the general manager in a reflective mood, "Omaha is all right. She is on an equality with Lincoln, and her trade would seem to indicate that she is big enough to take care of herself with even a differential against her."
Vengeance of the People.
"Will not the action of the railroads call down a greater vengeance from the people than if the rate law had been tried on its merits and then declared unconstitutional?"
"I think," replied the general manager in a reflective mood, "that the people will learn to treat railroads more as private business enterprises than as public utilities. They have rights as well as the public. While the action of the stockholders was a surprise, it shows how closely the moneyed men of the corporations have followed the law. Beyond this, there is little to say. The courts will have to pass upon the legality of the measure. It is beyond my province to say what their ultimate findings will be."
One thing is certain, however. Somebody has broken faith, for it was the agreement of the presidents that the law should go into effect and, after a full and fair trial, then, if the law was as vicious as represented, the roads could conscientiously swear to the decrease in earnings and ask for relief.
Several days ago, it was intimated that Hon. J. M. Woolworth had gone to Boston at the instance of President Perkins to consult with the stockholders with a view to bringing such action as was commenced Saturday in Judge Bundy's court, notwithstanding what President Perkins had obligated himself to put the law in force on the Burlington system. Judge Woolworth, on the other hand, states that he went to Boston on a wire from several of the stockholders.
The presence of President Marvin Hughitt of the Northwestern system at Kilkenny headquarters this morning, together with E. W. Winter, general manager of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha, and several other officials, following closely upon the restraining order of Saturday, may mean much or little. These officials, with General Hawley, the attorney of the Elkhorn, were closeted with General Manager Hurt all the morning, but the subject under discussion could not be learned.
One thing is known, however. The Elkhorn desired to put the law in force to see just where it stood. Now, the whole thing will have to be churned over again, with possibly still more dire results, as one official put it.
"We have given notice," said Assistant General Freight Agent Merchant, "to all agents to restore the tariff on all merchandise and livestock, withdrawing a few that have been a dead letter for several years on account of supplements issued to them."
Link and Phi
Mr. Frank Stewart, superintendent of the dining car service on the Rock Island, was in the city yesterday.
J. L. Do Bevelso, who has been running the Des Moines office for the past week in the absence of the regular agent at that place, spent Sunday with his family here.
Robert Baxter, general superintendent of the Pacific division of the Union Pacific west of Huntington, with headquarters at Portland, passed through Omaha yesterday, on route home from the World's fair.

Councilman Sol Prince has a scheme to effect a cleaning up of the city that he hopes will be adopted and thinks it will prove a success. His ideas, as expressed, are for the mayor to issue every three months or oftener a proclamation calling upon the occupants of all premises in the city on a certain day to thoroughly clean up and place their waste and garbage in the alleys or gutters of the streets to be gathered up by men and teams employed by the city on that day for that purpose.
Mr. Prince believes a frequent cleaning up of the city in that manner would be a good thing. He says that it would be surprising at the large amount of accumulation that would be piled up, and would result in catching everything.

AFTER DAN DAILEY.
At the meeting of the Board of County Commissioners yesterday forenoon, the principal business on hand was the hearing of the charges against Constable Alan Dailey, who is accused of being a non-resident of the West Omaha precinct, where he was elected, and willful maladministration in office.
Three witnesses were examined at the morning session, the effort of the prosecution, which was conducted by Assistant County Attorney Troup, being directed to an attempt to prove non-residence in the precinct.
In the afternoon, County Clerk ISackett was called, and read from the record to show that Dailey was appointed constable for Union precinct in January, 1888, and served until the election last November, when Frank Knight was elected but failed to qualify. Dailey did not file any subsequent or additional bond.
Assistant County Attorney Day was called and a wrangle ensued over the admission of evidence to the effect that the defendant now has two charges of embezzlement pending against him in the criminal courts.
The evidence was ruled out, as no conviction had yet occurred on either charge, and Justice of the Peace Edgerton was called to the stand. He did not think Dailey was a resident of West Omaha precinct, or had been since the election. Before the election Dailey told witness that if he could get the nomination for West Omaha he would run and take his chances. He was there election day, and witness had seen him in the precinct but once since. He never knew of his having lived in the precinct, although well acquainted with nearly all the residents there. He could not say where the defendant had been sleeping for the past two weeks, but knew that he formerly lived on Sixteenth street, in Omaha.
On cross-examination, he said he was as positive as a man could be that Dailey was not a resident of the precinct and would swear positively that Dailey had not had a residence there for the last year and a half.
The state rested, and the defense moved to dismiss, but the board advised that side to put in its evidence if it had any.
Constable Dailey was called, and swore that his residence was West Omaha precinct and that he had lived there for nearly four years. He had voted there for that time and had not voted anywhere else.
He testified on cross-examination that he was a single man and occasionally slept downtown, being in Omaha quite a little, and lodged on Charles street, where he had a room. He resided with different people in different places. He admitted that he was a resident of West Omaha when he applied for appointment as constable in Union precinct and was appointed. He declined to say where he had lived for the last month.
When required to answer, he said he had lived in West Omaha a part of the time, and a part of it he hadn't. When required to state when and where he had stayed in West Omaha in that time, he figured it out that he stayed one night at Shannon's and one night at Tietz park, and that was all the time he had stayed there in the last month.
Frank Shannon, justice of the peace for the West Omaha precinct, has disentangled himself from his difficulties as far as he could by handing in his resignation, which was accepted by the Board of Commissioners this morning.
Edward H. Wilhelm of Valley, who is confined in the Lincoln Insane asylum, wrote to the county commissioners that he does not like the way he is treated, and wants to be removed, but as Edward's wheel is obviously in active operation at the same old stand, his application was laid over.
The National Bank of Commerce has filed a bond of $7,630 for the sale keeping of the moneys of Douglas county, which bond was referred to the finance committee of the county board this morning. J. N. Cornish, L. B. Willams, George B. Barker, Joseph Barker, J. H. Evans, W. S. Keator, A. T. Keator, and Leo W. Spratton appear as sureties.
The Douglas County Agricultural society is asking the county for $3,000 or $4,000 to help out the coming fair, and the finance committee has the matter under consideration.
Yesterday morning the Board of County Commissioners instructed the county attorney to carry to the supreme court the case of Joseph H. Taylor vs. Douglas county for damages done to his property on West Leavenworth street by grading work, in which the plaintiff received a verdict of $100 in the district court.
Mr. Thompson saw the defendant about the hotel in Benson "pretty steady" for two or three weeks last fall, but hadn't seen him there very much since that time.
The case was argued and submitted, Van Camp wanted it referred to the judiciary committee, but the three Republican members were ready to pass on it then and there.
The clerk called the roll and Livers, Stoner, and Williams voted guilty, and Van Camp not guilty on the first specification and the prosecution dismissed the second count.
The officer was thereafter declared guilty. The defense gave notice of an appeal.
A number of bills were allowed, and a small amount of routine business transacted followed by an early adjournment. Dailey bondsman surrendered him on the case pending in the district court, and he was taken in custody by Sheriff Benson just as he was leaving the room where he had parted company with his office.

KILLED ON THE CROSSING
Good luck, Jacob L. Ques, a driver in the employ of Christopher Sharnword, was run over and almost instantly killed by the cars at the B. & M. crossing on South Seventeenth Street at 7:50 o'clock last evening. The deceased was returning from his daily work in his wagon and was attempting to cross the track when killed.
According to Ernest Karnatz, who resides at 1211 South Seventeenth Street, in the immediate vicinity where the accident occurred, the unfortunate man never noticed the approach of B. & M. freight train 82, drawn by engine 417, with P. C. Hawkins as engineer. Karnatz claims that it was purely an accident as the train was going at the usual rate of speed within the city limits and that Goos, when nearing the crossing on the double track, put the stake brake on the wagon as hard as possible.
The horses attached to Goos' wagon were already on the crossing when the cowcatcher of the engine struck the front end of the wagon, throwing the doomed driver about ten feet in the air. He landed on the track where the ponderous wheels of the engine crushed the life out of him. One of the horses was thrown alongside the track, while a portion of the wagon and the other horse were carried to the Sixteenth Street viaduct, one block distant, before the train was finally brought to a stop. The eyewitness aforesaid said he ran to the spot where the body was thrown. After gasping a few times, Goos expired. Karnatz then notified the police by telephone from the Lexington & Virginia Iron works.
Another person claiming to have been an eyewitness is a young man named Eugene Richter, residing at 813 Leavenworth Street. He stated that the flagman at the crossing was not at his post, having gone home for supper. He related substantially the same story as the first witness.
Still a third man, who claims to have seen the accident from a motor train on the Sixteenth Street viaduct and who claims to have notified the authorities first, is Jerry Murphy, a block watchman. He says he heard the engine whistle several times and, looking in the direction of the crossing, saw the accident.
According to keys found in the dead man's pockets, he belonged to Lodge No. 4, Knights of Pythias. He was about 33 years of age and unmarried. The victim had no relatives in this country. His employer describes him as a sober and industrious man who had worked for him about two years.

Clay M. Greene and J. Cheovor Goodwin's new spectacular comic opera, "Africa," in which Mr. George Thatcher and his operatic extravaganza company are appearing, comes to Boyd's theater this evening for an engagement of two nights.
"Africa" was written expressly for this organization, the peculiar talents of some of the principals being considered in the creation of the characters in the piece. The reputation of the librettists is too well established to leave any doubt as to the interest, originality, and lucidity of the story, which is said to give any number of opportunities to those having in charge the embellishment of the main theme. "Africa" is unusually rich from a scenic point of view, all the settings from the six scenes being from the brush of one of America's foremost artists in this line, Mr. John A. Thompson of the Hollis Street theater, Boston, while the costumes, of which there are over 300, are strictly in keeping with the spectacular nature of the production as a whole. Add to this any amount of bright, catchy music and a presenting company the like of which has never before been seen in a presentation of this kind, and you have an entertainment that is certain to find favor with the masses.
The company that is appearing in the cast of "Africa" numbers over seventy people, including the heretofore unheard-of number of twenty-six principals, most of whom are established favorites in this city. This feature alone means an enormous outlay on the part of the promoters of the enterprise, Messrs. Thatcher, Ulch, and Harris, but believing that the public would appreciate their efforts to give them something now and meritorious in every respect, they did not hesitate to incur the expense of carrying so profusions an organization. Seats are now on sale.

TILLY AS A MIND READER.
Great Paradox in a Progression of Lectures at Boston Theatre Tonight.
Colonel Tilly is at present engaged in the enjoyable pastime of a mad race with the colony of river front squatters. Just at this time, the colonel is several lengths ahead, but the home stretch is not yet entered. However, the colonel is the prime favorite in the bookings and he will probably distance the festive squatters, who are handicapped.
Those squatters who have entered into an agreement with the city to remove their present habitations and level their shanties to the ground are those with whom the colonel is contesting. These particular squatters are not at all choosy about the location to which they remove and are willing to set down their huts at almost any convenient place where there is sufficient unoccupied territory. It causes them but little worriment whether a piece of ground they covet is private property or a portion of a public thoroughfare. They have never yet contracted the habit of paying rent, and show no desire to cultivate the acquaintance of the rental agent. About all they seem to care to accomplish is to capture from the city the $5.00 or $23 that is to be paid them when they remove. They have no idea of ceasing to be squatters.
Colonel Tilly has made a study of squatter character and it is said that he can tell by the twinkle of a squatter's eye just what is passing through his mind. The other day, the colonel espied one of the colony and, like Frank James with the buffalo, he looked him in the eye. Immediately, the colonel knew that the squatter had evil intentions toward the community. He read in that eye that the squatter was preparing to pull up stakes down on the river front and the first piece of unoccupied territory he came to would drop his shanty there and remain until again compelled to move on. Colonel Tilly thought to himself: "Here I am, the inspector of buildings of this metropolis of the commonwealth of Nebraska. My duty is to the taxpayers. I'll just drop suddenly like onto that squatter and frustrate his ill-laid plans." The colonel did so, and he directed Uncle Jerry Snowdon, one of his inspectors, to pay a visit to Shantytown and watch the movements of that squatter with the keen eye. Uncle Jerry did so, and he found that Colonel Tilly is a mind reader from away back. The squatter had his miserable excuse for a house on skids and was in the act of seeking a new location. He could not tell where he was going, as he did not know. He proposed to be one less of the colony, and by a change of location, hoped to secure the $25 the city had voted him to remove. Uncle Jerry informed him that a permit to move a building was necessary and that Colonel Tilly issued them at so much per issue.
The bewildered and half angry squatter, accompanied by his interesting family and all their friends, paid a visit to the city hall and dropped in on Clerk Carter in the building inspector's office. Mr. Carter is always interesting, and for an hour previous to Colonel Tilly's arrival he entertained his visitors with the story of his visit to Windsor castle in years gone by when he bore one of the proudest titles in all Europe.
When Colonel Tilly arrived he managed by a liberal application of bad English, Sioux, and the mother tongue to convey to the squatter the information that the aforenamed squatter should remain in his present location until he displayed a lease of a piece of private ground and that this thing of people blocking the public highways by taking up their residences there must cease. The squatter submitted and is still one of the interesting river front colony.
Colonel Tilly is causing a strict watch to be kept on the squatters and they will not be permitted to settle wherever they desire.

CIHCAOO , Aug. 1. The national convention
Of the American Bimetallic league met at 10
o'clock this morning In the First Methodist
church nudltorlum. It was the largest assem
bly of HKO character in the history ot
llnancl.il agitation. The features of ninny of
the scarred veterans of financial agitation
were visible In the heterogeneous assembly.
General A. .1. Wnrnor of Ohio , prcsldonl of
the Bimetallic league ; Congrcssmnn Bar-
line of Nevada , Congressman W. J. Brynn
of Nebraska , Governor Walto of Colorado ,
Senator Stewart of Nevada , Senators
Mantel of Montnnn , Shoup of Idaho , T. M.
Patterson of Colorado , Governor IColb , the
populist loader ot Alabama ; ICdllor Goodwin
of Salt Luke , Herman J. Taubcncck , chair
man of the cxciiutlvo committee of the pee
ple's party , nnd Senator Uubola of Idaho
were conspicuous among these.
When Chalrmnn Wnrnor of the Bimetallic
league called the convention to order many
of the delegates were obliged to stand In the
aisles on account of the smnlliiess of the
hall. Chairman \Variieropencd the proceed
ings by Introducing Mayor Carter H. Harrison
risen of Chicago , who welcomed the dele
gates to llio city.
.Mnyor llurrlton'i Ailvico.
"I wolcotno you wnrmlyj" said Mayor Harrison
risen , "bocauso I bellevo you have the good
of the country at heart. Some of you maybe
bo rather wild ; It Is said that
you are silver lunatics. I look
down upon you and am rather clad
to welcome such lunatics. It Is the crazy
men that march the world for.ward and niaitc
progress a possibility. They say that be
cause you bellovo in bimetallism you
nro crazy. If the action ot 1873
could bo blotted from the nnnnls
ot American pollttoa ! action I believe
that silver would bo worth $ ! . ' - " . > cents an
ounce. Bo wlso in your dolibm'ations , but
bo fearless. Congress is about to meet.
12 Glvo llio bcncllt of your deliberations to congress -
12V gross aim toll Grover Cleveland what the
V people of tho.Unlted StatosXvant. "
Hon. Thomas M. Patterson , chairman of
the Colorado delegation , responded to tbo
mayor.
Wnrnrr'H Ilmiuil I'lcturc.
Chairman WaVner ot the Bimetallic
league then delivered his opening address.
"The most extraordinary condition of af
fairs. " said he , "meets the as
sembling of this convention. The
earth Is yielding her ' fruits
in unusual abundance and a rich harrcst Is
being gathered under favoring skies , and
never before In the history of the country
has there been snch widespread distress ;
never before such a loss of confidence
nnd destruction to credit. Industries
nro everywhere breaking down and laborers
by tens of thousands are thrown workless
on the streets with waul staring them in the
face. Scores of banks lire driven lo suspen
sion. There lias been a shrinkage of hun
dreds of millions. In the value of
blocks and other property. To attribute -
tribute all ibis condition to sil
ver purchasing Is absurd. Under this law ,
since IS'JO. $ ir > 0 , < KX,000 have boon added to
our currency. Does anybody bollovo that
the presence of this $1,10,000,000 makes molioy
scarce and donrf The real object
lesson of the situation Is very
different from that which the gold
conspirators Intend. It enables us to see
the beginning' the shrinkage of prices
that inusl tiilco place in order to go to a
purely gold basis. The trouble Is In
tha chaugo in the money stnnd.ird.
The value of the money may bo doubled
cither by doubling the weights of tamlard
coins or by destroying half of the metal out
of which the coins are made. The establish
ment of the single cold standard Is equiva
lent to putting a value of Iwo dollars to ono.
It is doubling the unit and putting
property down bnc-linlf. This is what is
going on to do this , and to still require the
snino number of dollars In the payment [ ) f
debts and taxes IR lo sanction the in
of ono class by the other. "
He characterized the silver net of 187 ! ! as
n crime and said he was willing to have the
not of 1600 repealed if iho ether Sher
man law net of 1871) ) can irJO
repealed by the same bill. Lot both Shur-
limn laws go togolher and place Uio country
b.ick upon tno constitution and the law ns it
stood before lb"l. !
The committee on credentials was then
appointed , consisting of ono member from
each state , and n committee , consisting of
Lyon of Colorado , chairman , Hoagan of
Texas , Stark of Ohio. Washburno of Massa
chusetts and Fullenwnlor of Illinois ,
\viis appointed nn pertuunoiit organization ;
also a commitU'o consisting of 11 delegate
jfpr each state represented on rules and
order of business. The convention then

was held in Central Music hall , a building
capable of seating over ! ) ,000 with comfort'

Allen W. Thurman of Ohio was1 made
permanent president amid , great applause.
AVhlli ) the notification committee was mil

waukee wanted to he.ir n speech from Gov
ernor Wnlto of Colorado , but iho chairman
declared iho motion out of order , pcnillng
pormancutorganization. .
A committee nn rules and order of busi
ness was thun chosen and the roll of states
called for the appointment of a committee on ' '
resolutions. Mr. C. S. Thomas of Colorado !
urged thai each state name three members
of this committee , ono member from each of
thu thrco parties , hut Paul Vnndcrvoort of
Nebraska objected. "I hope , " said 10.
"that party differences will not bo rccog'x
nlzod In this convention. " [ Applause. ]
Mr. Fletcher of Colorado said that when
this convention adjourned It would beef
charged that II was under the domination of
one of the three great parties. In order to
obviate that , the Colorado delegation ad
thought It wise to ask that ono in em tier bo
selected from each ot the throe great polit
ical parllos In iho several states.
ICx-Sonator Hugan of Texas arose. , nnd In
response to loud demands mounted iho stage.
Said ho : " 1 understand wo nro here ns hi-

At this point Chairman Kcgan and the
spoclal committee , escorted the now presi
dent , Allen W. Thurman , to the stage. The
appearance of Mr. Thurman was a'signal for
uproarious applause , and after It had sub
sided lie was Introduced by the retiring presi
dent and spoke as follows :
Air. Tlinriniin'n .Speech.
"Mit. CtiAiiiMAV , LAWKS AND GENTLEMEN :
Tbo light between thosn who bcllcvo thai
tlio clrculallon medlumof this country should
be hard money that Is real money , gold or
silver and paper redeemable In the same ,
and these who bollovo in the use of soft
money , thai Is , paper promlses-lo-pay-money ,
redeemable in other promises to pay is on.
"Should the Sherman law bo repealed
without substituting anything In lieu
thereof , It means the final destruction of sil
ver money ns n measure of value , anil no
man can toll when it will over bo again re
stored to Us former place. I nm against nn
irredeemable currency In every way , but If
It Is to bo decreed ttmt wo must have flat
money ; if our circulating medium Is to bo
based upon faith alone , then I am in favor of
Its being Issued by the government and not
by individuals , because I have moro faith lu
all of tha people than 1 have lu any particu
lar class of people.
C'mirrontcd by the Same Condition ,
money advocates before that are made now.
The United States bank and all Its branches ,
by pursuing almost Identically the same
course as its followers of loday have done ,
so fnghleiiod iho business community ( did
so paralyzed all industry that , allhough they
tnay not have Iniendod it , yet a panic did
ensue , and such depression followed that
they thought surely Old Jackson must etvo
way and they must win , but Old Hickory
never for a single moment wavered. On the
contrary , ho appealed again to the people of
this country , pointing out to where nil this
would lead , and then bade the bank do its'
worst , and ho did not appeal in vain ; neither
will wo appeal In vain , for when the poopUJ
of this country nwnkcn to the fact that
there Is being made a systematic attempt to
force Ilium to pay the obligations of this
government In gold alone , when they have
always had the right to pay them In gold or
silver , and that tills is to bo taken away
from them that the contract they made
with their creditors is lo bo violated I. for
one , have not the slightest doubt where
they will stand.
'I deny that gold alone affords a sufllcient
basis upon which llio circulating medium
and credits of this country should rest , and I
charge that these who now demand that sil
ver shall bo destroyed are not true hard
money men , but paper money men. They
know full well that the people of this coun
try will have In some form ot another u suf
ficient circulating medium. Soon again you
will hear that the banks are best titled lo
supply the circulating medium of the coun
try because they alone can regulate its vol
ume according to the demands of business.
Have thcso banks , during this trying time ,
with but few exceptions , by increasing their
circulation , expanded the volume according
to the demands of business ?
Their Victory Will Ilo Complete.
"Then next , if they succeed in uncondi i-
tionally repealing tlio Sherman law , you
will hear the demand made that the govern
ment issue other bonds upon which thcso
banks may supply the deficiency In the cir
culating medium , which will bo brought
about by the government ceasing to issue
the com certificates under thn Sherman
law ; and , lluaUy. should there at any time
bo a falling oil of llio gold in llio ireasury ,
which is sure to come sooner or lalcr , you
will begin to see editorials by the score
pointing out what a inonuco to the 'business
of the country are the outstanding $ JM(1,000.- (
000 of greenbacks ; and that unless they are
retired tbo treasury will soon lose i.ll of its
gold and Hie counlry will bo brought to a sil 1-
ver basis , and then the further demand will
bo made that these greenbacks bo retired !
with a long time bond , upon which moro
promises to pay can be issued by these
banks. In fact , it will not bo many years
before 11103-demand the rotiremenl of all ,
forms Of papur money , other than their own
notes , which the people of this country will
then lie compelled to accept as money. When
this comes about , ( and unless it is stopped ;
now. It will como about ) the victory of the
Shylocks will bo complete , for if these banks
can now not only prevent the national debt
from being reduced , but , on llio contrary ,
can make congress Increase it so they may
porpotnalo themselves , when and whore will
llislr p wer end !

"I have no doubt that in tlio message
which will bo scut to congress upon the 7th
of this month the phrase of 'sound and stable
currency" will bo usod. I want'tho presi !
dent of the United States to tell the people
of this country and members of congress

LEADING PROVISION DEALERS FAIL
I'rlcr * Drop to nn Unlooked for t'lcuro
John titid.tlijr thn I'rluolpil SuH'trrcr
from tlin Crnnh History
of the Dual.
Cmc.vno , Autr. 1. Today was ono of the
most disastrous In Iho hlslory of Iho Board
of Trade of this city , Wealthy. Individuals
nnd llrms were bowled over Hl o nine-pins
and the prices of hog products went tumbling
hko nn avalanceo. Dealers on the Chtcaco
board are accustomed to exciting scenes and
kaleidoscopic changes In vutuo , for this
market seems to bo thu storm center where
both the upward and downward push lu the
price of the world's food products is most
severely felt ; but old members of the board ,
who had been through the whirl and clatter
of many collapsing concerns in both grain
and provisions , actually stood aghast at the
rapidity with which the firms wont down.
A sheer drop of $3.2."i per barrel on pork In-
sldo of three-quarters of an hour Is enough
to take away the breath of old Stcutor him
self.
Firnt Intimation of Trouble.
morning when Secretary Stouo appeared on
the balcony of the trading reom mid notified
all concerned that these having trades with
the well-ki.own provision brolrtr llrms of
J. G. Steever & Co. , E. W. Bailey & Co. and
A. Hclmholz & Co. should proceed to close
them out. The sllenco lasted for a second
after the close of the announcement , and
then a mighty roar went up from the pro
vision pit.
As early as last March It became apparent
to the trade that mess pork was being
"bulled" through thcso houses , and It soon
became noised about in the provision trade
that A. W. Wright was behind the deal. A
year ago he started a corner In ribs , and
with the help of Cudahy curried it through
to success , making n large amount of money.
Apparently , according to the general opinion
on tho-board , he bad started to run a similar
deal in mess pork.
The collapse has boon looked for for some
weeks and as the monetary situation became
came moro and moro strained , and the bor
rowing of money to put uo margins , moro
and moro tlilllcu.lt , everybody interested in
the de.il drew out , leaving the market so
dull that there was scarcely enough business
to cstabllshv quotations. When the bubble
finally burst the pieces were so small that it
was next to Impossible to find them.
The first offer beard by the quotation
ofileial after the announcement of the fail
ure was ? 1S,75 , against § 10 at the close
yesterday ; the next bid was $18 , then $17.50 ,
and so it went , 50o to $1 at a time , with very
little hesitation at any point until the prlco
touched $10.50 , n loss of $3.23 per barrel in
forty minutes. These nro the ofileial
figures. But It is reliably vouched for
that a sale was made at $10 and several as
low as $10. a drop of ill , or nearly 50 per
cent , or $450,000 on n visible supply of 50,000
barrels. Then the market became quieter ,
and good buying nt the enormous decline
carried the price back to $13 ; and subse
quent events had only n temporary effect
on it.
Things were moving along with ominous
smoothness when another and hoavlcrshock
;
came in the announcement by the secretary
oi the failures of the North American Pack
ing company , a jiackhiir concern with a cap
ital of $ i)0,000 , in which "Jack" Cudaby was
largely interested ; of Wright & Haughey , a
respectable < firm , chlclly engaged In tno re
ceiving and shipping of wheat , but which
was understood to bo Intereslcd wilh
Cudahy in his deals in the provision pit.
Jn < : lc Cmlitliy'ft failure.
Finally came the failure of Cudahy , the
darintr operator in provisions , a man whoso
wealth had recently been estimated nt no
less than $18,000,000 , of which about $2,000-
000 was made in the deal In ribs last fall.
Tbo announcement of his failure had
scarcely died on the secretary's lips before
the storm broke loosa again , this time in the
lard crowd. That commodity had held ex
tremely steady throughout the slump xin
pork , but It , In turn , mounted the toboggan
and wont down as If self-lubricated. The
price for September was fc'J.TS per tierce in
the early ' . .railing ; It was $ ( ! within six min
utes after Cudahy's 1'ailuro was announced ,
and September short ribs , which sold early
at $7.25 , broke to $ .1.87 - Before the close ,
however , both rallied , the former to $0.0 ,
llio lallcr lo ? 0.iO. :
Not AflVcted by tlio Craih.
It was said by one close to Mr. Cudahy
that his private affairs were entirely >
separate from his partnership matter and
that the various companies In which ho Is
interested with his two brothers , Mlko nnd
Ed , uro not directly affected by the failure.
It is estimated that thu losses on thu pork :
alleged to Have boon bought for Wright uro
between $400,000 and $500.01)0. ) No one pro-
lends lo estimate Cudahy's losses. end
Charlie Wrlglu declares that Cudahy and
N. Iv. Fairbanks , the lard klmr , were inter
ested with him in his deal , and that ho
trouble came about because they would ot
pul up any moro margins. So far as ho
trade Is concerned , Mr. Fairbanks is ot
known in connection with tha deal nt all.
John Cudnhy hns no financial Interest In
thu Cudahy plant at South Omaha , which is
owned by Edward and Michael Cudahy. The
South Omaha plant will not bo alTcutcd by
failure or by the troubles of the other ' " "if- :
cage packers and provision merchants. ' '
Moran , ICrous and Mayer , as attorneys for
the Chicago Packing and Provision company ' ,
announced attachment proceedings In the
superior court this afternoon against the
North American Provision company for $17-
000. The plaintiff company has security for
Its claim lu the shape of margins , but it 'oils
feared they have or will bo absorbed In the
collapse.
Mr. Mayer said nothing had been decided .
upon ns yet lu the matter of straightening j i
Mr. Cudnhy's affairs. As far as lie knew
Cudahy has asscois lo cover twice his In-
debtedness. Mr. Inas
Mayer said Mr.Cuduliy was
prostrate at his homo from effects ot the ,
crash.

NEW YOIIK , Aug. 1. A now nnd unex
pected mcasuro of'rellof has been Injected
Into the financial situation. United States
bonds have reached such a low figure that
the national banks'suo their way clear to
make a profit by Issuing certlflcalcs against
them. Arranpomcnls have therefore
been made by several of the
moro prominent banks to Increase
their circulation from the minimum limit , at
which It now stands , to such an amount ns
will ! materially relieve the present tension.
Ul Is cstlmnlcd that $8,000,000 or $10.000,000
J will bo so added to Wow York's supply of
currency within n very short time. Orders
have already boon placed with the comp
troller of the currency for part of the now
bills nnd some of the banks have bought
their bonds preparatory to depositing them
luna Washington. Among the banks that are
named as Interested In the movement nro
the Gallalln , Fourth , Merchants , First Now
York and Park.
Now Hill * Ordered Kncrnvil.
The Fourth National has already ordered
$2,000,000 , bills engraved and the Gallatln
uboul $800,000. The latter bank has pur
chased $ . " > 0,000 of llio bonds and llio Bank of
New York $700,000. The rest of tha amount
will bo made up among the other banks
named.
The currency movement today was lighter
than It has been for some time , being esti
mated at less than $750,000. The shbtreas-
ur.v was a creditor at the clearing house for
$105,000 , about half of which was paid in
gold. Exchanges ovcv the counter at the

$ "K,000 ) In silver. Gojd was paid out to the
amount of $ ! ! 00,000 , nnd $ .V,000 ) was received
from Sail Francisco by telegraph. The Issue
of lo.xn certificates was Increased $1,4,10.000 ,
raising the tolal to $29,450000. Today' ?
Issno was for the purpose ot facilitating the
gold Imports.
The shipment of gold from Enplaml for
vNow York by today's steamers reached iOU.-
000. Part of this was In eagles and double
eagles and will probably bo returned In the
very kegs with seal unbroken , in which they
were ' shipped to London during our recent
specie export movement.
Arrangements were also reported to have
been made nt Chicago for the Import of
K > 00,000 In gold direct by the First National
bank of Chicago ; $2.)0,000 by thu Bank of
Nova Scotia in that city and $ .100,000 by the
Illinois Trust and Savings institution , this
old being engaged aguliist tbo forwarding
of wheat , and product ) to England , the
machinery of the operation being similar to
that employed by the .New York banks hi
their Import of gold against the transfer of
American securities to .London. Tbo total
gold now afloat from Europe for America ,
most of it duo Hero withiu a week , Is be
tween $7,000,000 and $ S,000.000.
Scarcity of Currency.
About the only dlQlcu'lty the banks now
Have to contend with , it Is said , is the great
'
scarcity of currency.
It was said that the loan certificates
issued today praetlcally'represeut the gold
that has been ordered from London , as they
were taken out by ono of llio largo banks
which lent money to some of the gold 1m-
porting houses to buy foreign exchange. It.
is not believed that the total amount of
certificates will bo , inuch increased after
today. The first heavy Importations of gold
will arrive this week , after whieh , it is ex
pected there wil ( 'be a 'considerable easing
up in the situation " , as u 'consequence
thereof. f
Harvey Fish & Sons , who make a specialty
of government boncU , today sent a circular
to national bank ofllcers , urging "Uio Impor
tance of enlarging their circulation. They
said : "Thero is room for an increase of
over $100,000,000 , provided the bonds can bo
secured for deposit. The banks can perform
a service by Increasing circulation , receive a
reward in the shape of largo profits and
demonstrate to the public that n properly
secured bank currency Is llio best which n
country can have , because It expands when
needed and contracts when not needed.
INCREASING 1IIB1K ClIttiULATlUN.
New York Niitionnl JJiuiltH Preparing to
IHSIIO n I.urgo Amount of Notus.
WASHINGTON , Aug. 1. The financial do-
dresslon Is to bo relieved from a quarter
that has not boon looked to for succor. The
report of the treasury department , issued
touav , shows that In July the circulation of
national banks was Increased over $5,000-
000. Comptroller Eckels was asked tonight
what was the slgnlllcanco of the increase.
"It is due " ho said "in
, , a largo part to
the low prlco of government bonds , which
makes the issue of currency , oven when re
stricted to 00 per cent Of the par value of
bonds deposited to secure it , n profitable
venture for llio banks , Four per cents are
now quoted at $1.08 , which is quite a fall
from the maximum llguro which they have
attained. Then the stringency of the money
market makes it desirable that the circu
lating medium shall be increased ns much as
possible national bank notes , secured by
government bonds are a very satisfactory
currency.
"In the quarter ended July 31 the net In
crease of tbo national bank note circulation
was something over J-3,000.000 , and it will bo
increased this month at least that amount , in
m.v opinion. The department sent out over
fTjOOjlHW todav and received applications from
three New Yorlc banks for the issue of f'JUO-
000 to each of them , $1,000,000 being depos
ited with < 'ach of the applications. "
"Will you recommend this limitation to 00
per cent of the par value of the bonds In
case of the restrictions to the issue of circu
lation bo removed J"
" 1 don't care to say as to that. It Is a
recommendation that has been repeatedly
made by comptrollers in their reports , but
m.v time has been so taken up with Tnattors
of current topics that 1 have had no oppor
tunity to consider It yot. "

Aim. 1. ( lly Mexican Cnblo to the Now
York Herald Special to THE Bnu.l Dis
patches from the Herald's correspondent lu
Buenos Ayrcs. Argentina , show that thorov-
olnilons against the orovlnclnl government
of the provinces of Buenos Ayres , Sun Luis
nnd Santa Fo are gaining continually. Kov-
olulionlsts in iho province of San Luis won n
complete triumph , They have deposed the
provincial government and established an
other with a pronounced radical at Its head.
The situation there Is very grave , many
miles of railroad being torn up.
Complete success has not yet boon won In
the provinces of Santa Fo nnd Buenos
Ayrcs. but the Insurgents nro gaining every
where. Along the roast of the province of
Buenos Ayres nnd up the Parana rlvor ,
which forms the oaslcrn boundary of the
province of Santa Fo , all the towns have
been seized by thu Insurgents. > Litllc reslsl-
anco was made hv most of them.
Forty towns in Iho province of Buenos
Ayres alouo are now hold by llio revolu
tionists and all the camp districts under
their control. Halls have been torn up along
many railway lines to prevent the movement
of troops and the prefect of the Parana rivet-
has ordered steamer captains not to lake
I'lylitlni ; In Sunlit Fe.
Moro actual fighting has been done In the
province of Santa Fo so far than the other
provinces where the revolutions have been
started , out a grc.it battle is expected in or
near the city of La Plata , where Governor
Costa of the province of Uuenos Ayres has
taken a poslllon at the head of 2,200 pro.
vlnclal iroops. The city of Buenos Ayres
Is In a ferment concerning the expected bat
tle , because victory for civico iitclonale , as
the rebels call themselves , but who are
really radicals , means that they will proba
bly completely overthrow the provincial
government. Thu revolutionary forces have
surrounded La Plata and G ivornor Cost-i
and his troops uro practically shut in. They
are under siege and will prob.ibly bo forced
to light tholr way out of the city.
Bahia Blanca , on B.ihla Blanca Bay at tile
extreme southern point of the province of
Buenos Ayrcs , was captured today by tbo
revolutionists. The-polico made a short re-
sistancc , but wore forced to surrender. This
gives the revolutionists almost complete con
trol of the Great Southern railroad which
runs from Buenos Ayres City to Babia
Blatica. ' '
In the province of Santa Fc tbo revolu
tionists against Governor Caffcrata are rap
Idly gaining. They have sie/ed man * ' towns.
A largo body of revolutionary troops largely
composed of colonists from Europe is march
ing toward the city of Santa Fo , which is the
capital of the provinces. Notice bus bcciiscnt
Governor CafTerata that unless ho surrenders
the city by daybreak tomorrow and agree
to givouu control of the province a bombard
ment will bo opened. It is not doubted that
the revolutionists could readily take the city
by storm. Possibly the governor may sur
render without courting such a misfortune.
Cnnnot l > oftat th * Insurgents.
His enemies are winning such triumphs
that ho cannot hope to overcome them with
out direct aid from national troops and this
Is not likely to bo given. The city of
Hosario , the largest in the province of Santu
Fc , is already In the hands of the rovolu
tlonary forces. It is reported that 100 per
sons were killed and wounded during the
lighting with the insurgents auu the police
of that city.
The puoplo of the city of Buenos Ayrcs are
greatly excited and arc waiting eagerly * f&i
news of the revolution. President 1'enn
whoso administration is not threatened b.v
the revolutionists , Is anxious about the out
como. Ho fears that the prolonging of the ,
revolt aiay result in a general uprising
national troops necessary.
A cabinet meeting was held last night , at
which It was decided to ask congress to
sanction federal intervention In the dis
turbed provinces. Thn senate voted favor
ably upon the proposal today , and it is now
being considered by tbo chamber of deputies.
Buenos Ayres papers say that the stories
sent to London papers from Itlo Janeiro
about the revolution in Illo Grande do Sul ,
Brazil , are absolutely false.
The Herald's correspondent in Itlo Janeiro
telegraphs that the officials In Santa Cath-
arlua have seized thu Argentine steamer
Furtuna. They claimed thu right to search
her to find whether arms for tlio Brazilian
rebels were aboard. The Argentine consul
made a vigorous protest against thu seizure.

Knowledge Allied with the White Metal Debate at the Convention Arranged by the Bimetallist League. The convention assembled at 10 o'clock this morning in the First Methodist church auditorium. It was the largest assembly of Bimetallist character in the history of financial agitation. The features of many of the scarred veterans of financial agitation were visible in the heterogeneous assembly. General A.J. Warner of Ohio, president of the Bimetallist league; Congressmen Baroline of Nevada, Congressman W.J. Bryan of Nebraska, Governor Walter of Colorado, Senator Stewart of Nevada, Senators Mantle of Montana, Shoup of Idaho, T.M. Patterson of Colorado, Governor Colby, the populist leader of Alabama; Senator Goodwin of Salt Lake, Herman J. Taubeneck, chairman of the executive committee of the people's party, and Senator Lubber of Idaho were conspicuous among these.
When Chairman Warner of the Bimetallist League called the convention to order, many of the delegates were obliged to stand in the aisles due to the smallness of the hall. Chairman Warner opened the proceedings by introducing Mayor Carter H. Harrison risen of Chicago, who welcomed the delegates to the city.
Mayor Harrison's Address.
"I welcome you warmly," said Mayor Harrison risen, "because I believe you have the good of the country at heart. Some of you may be a bit wild; It is said that you are silver lunatics. I look down upon you and am rather glad to welcome such lunatics. It is the crazy men that make the world forward and make progress a possibility. They say that because you believe in bimetallism you are crazy. If the action of 1873 could be blotted from the annals of American politics! Action I believe that silver would be worth $1.50 cents an ounce. So wise in your deliberations, but fearless. Congress is about to meet. Give the bench of your deliberations to Congress and tell Grover Cleveland what the people of the United States want."
Hon. Thomas M. Patterson, chairman of the Colorado delegation, responded to the mayor.
Chairman Warner's Opening Address.
"Chairman Warner of the Bimetallist League then delivered his opening address.
"The most extraordinary condition of affairs," said he, "meets the assembling of this convention. The earth is yielding her fruits in unusual abundance and a rich harvest is being gathered under favoring skies, and never before in the history of the country has there been such widespread distress; never before such a loss of confidence and destruction to credit. Industries are everywhere breaking down and laborers by tens of thousands are thrown workless on the streets with want staring them in the face. Scores of banks have been driven to suspension. There has been a shrinkage of hundreds of millions in the value of blocks and other property. To attribute all this condition to silver purchasing is absurd. Under this law, since 1878, $1,500,000,000 have been added to our currency. Does anybody believe that the presence of this $1,500,000,000 makes money scarce and dear? The real object lesson of the situation is very different from that which the gold conspirators intend. It enables us to see the beginning of the shrinkage of prices that must take place in order to go to a purely gold basis. The trouble is in the change in the money standard. The value of the money may be doubled either by doubling the weights of standard coins or by destroying half of the metal out of which the coins are made. The establishment of the single gold standard is equivalent to putting a value of two dollars to one. It is doubling the unit and putting property down by half. This is what is going on to do this, and to still require the same number of dollars in the payment of debts and taxes. To sanction the impoverishment of one class by the other."
He characterized the silver act of 1873 as a crime and said he was willing to have the act of 1878 repealed if the other Sherman law act of 1871 could be repealed by the same bill. Let both Sherman laws go together and place the country back upon the constitution and the law as it stood before 1873!
The committee on credentials was then appointed, consisting of one member from each state, and a committee, consisting of Lyon of Colorado, chairman, Hogan of Texas, Stark of Ohio, Washburne of Massachusetts, and Fullenwider of Illinois, was appointed as a permanent organization; also a committee consisting of one delegate from each state represented in rules and order of business. The convention then adjourned until 8:00 PM.
The afternoon session of the convention was held in Central Music Hall, a building capable of seating over 5,000 with comfort. Upon the adoption of the permanent organization, Allen W. Thurman of Ohio was made permanent president amid great applause. While the notification committee was making its report, Robert Schilling of Milwaukee wanted to hear a speech from Governor Walter of Colorado, but the chairman declared the motion out of order, penning permanent organization.
A committee on rules and order of business was then chosen and the roll of states called for the appointment of a committee on resolutions. Mr. C.S. Thomas of Colorado urged that each state name three members of this committee, one member from each of the three parties, but Paul Vandermark of Nebraska objected. "I hope," said Mr. Vandermark, "that party differences will not be recognized in this convention." [Applause.] Mr. Fletcher of Colorado said that when this convention adjourned it would be charged that it was under the domination of one of the three great parties. In order to obviate that, the Colorado delegation had thought it wise to ask that one in each be selected from each of the three great political parties in the several states.
Ex-Senator Hogan of Texas arose, and in response to loud demands mounted the stage. Said he: "I understand we are here as bimetallists, without reference to any distinction of political parties. The moment news introduces a partisan question into this convention, we throw before it a matter which is going to cause strife and confusion and impede the work of the convention. [Applause.] I appeal to this convention to go on with its duties and declare its purpose of restoring to this country gold and silver coinage as it existed before 1873, and then restart the prosperity of the country, and after that take care of our party affiliations." [Great applause.]
Committee on Resolutions.
Mr. Thomas withdrew his motion. The roll of states was called and the following committee on resolutions appointed: Alabama, J.C. Manning; Arizona, J.M. Murphy; California, Daniel M. Burns; Colorado, Thomas M. Patterson; Connecticut, C.B. Whitcomb; District of Columbia, C. de Grand; Georgia, Henry Jones; Florida, J. McAllister; Indiana, M.C. Rankin; Idaho, Y.G. Bryant; Illinois, Benjamin Goodhue; Iowa, C.C. Cole; Kansas, Harrison Hull; Nevada, H.F. Bartino; Massachusetts, F. Washburne; Maryland, H.S. Montague; Montana, H.U. Mills; Minnesota, Ignatius Donnelly; Missouri, M.F. Mines; New Mexico, Hiram Hadley; New York, R. Alden Spencer; Nebraska, W.J. Bryan; North Carolina, J.H. Sinnott; South Dakota, William H. Standish; North Dakota, C.H. Tripp; Pennsylvania, H. Davis; Ohio, P.R. Guff; Utah, C.C. Goodwin; Texas, John H. Reagan; Tennessee, J.C. Roberts; Virginia, I.L. Johnson; Washington, Patrick Clarke; Wisconsin, Robert Schilling; Wyoming, J.J. Hurt.
A list of vice presidents was announced, one member being elected from each state and then questions of preparing an address to the people and a memorial to congress were after some discussion, referred to the committee on resolutions.
At this point, Chairman Regan and the special committee, escorted the new president, Allen W. Thurman, to the stage. The appearance of Mr. Thurman was a signal for uproarious applause, and after it had subsided, he was introduced by the retiring president and spoke as follows:
Mr. Thurman's Speech.
"Mr. CHAIRMAN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN:
The light between those who believe that the circulation medium of this country should be hard money, that is real money, gold or silver, and paper redeemable in the same, and those who believe in the use of soft money, that is, paper promises-to-pay-money, redeemable in other promises to pay, is on.
"Should the Sherman law be repealed without substituting anything in lieu thereof, it means the final destruction of silver money as a measure of value, and no man can tell when it will ever be again restored to its former place. I am against an irredeemable currency in every way, but if it is to be decreed that we must have flat money; if our circulating medium is to be based upon faith alone, then I am in favor of its being issued by the government and not by individuals, because I have more faith in all of the people than I have in any particular class of people.
Confronted by the Same Condition, money advocates before that are made now. The United States bank and all its branches, by pursuing almost identically the same course as its followers of today have done, so paralyzed the business community, did so paralyzed all industry that, although they may not have intended it, yet a panic did ensue, and such depression followed that they thought surely Old Jackson must yield and they must win, but Old Hickory never for a single moment wavered. On the contrary, he appealed again to the people of this country, pointing out to where all this would lead, and then bade the bank do its worst, and he did not appeal in vain; neither will we appeal in vain, for when the people of this country awaken to the fact that there is being made a systematic attempt to force them to pay the obligations of this government in gold alone, when they have always had the right to pay them in gold or silver, and that this is to be taken away from them, that the contract they made with their creditors is to be violated, I for one, have not the slightest doubt where they will stand.
I deny that gold alone affords a sufficient basis upon which the circulating medium and credits of this country should rest, and I charge that those who now demand that silver be destroyed are not true hard money men, but paper money men. They know full well that the people of this country will have in some form or another a sufficient circulating medium. Soon again you will hear that the banks are better titled to supply the circulating medium of the country because they alone can regulate its volume according to the demands of business. Have those banks, during this trying time, with but few exceptions, by increasing their circulation, expanded the volume according to the demands of business?
Their Victory Will Be Complete.
"Then next, if they succeed in unconditionally repealing the Sherman law, you will hear the demand made that the government issue other bonds upon which those banks may supply the deficiency in the circulating medium, which will be brought about by the government ceasing to issue the silver certificates under the Sherman law; and, further, should there at any time be a falling off of the gold in the treasury, which is sure to come sooner or later, you will begin to see editorials by the score pointing out what a menace to the business of the country are the outstanding $500,000,000 of greenbacks; and that unless they are retired, the treasury will soon lose all of its gold and the country will be brought to a silver basis, and then the further demand will be made that these greenbacks be retired with a long-time bond, upon which more promises to pay can be issued by these banks. In fact, it will not be many years before these demand the retirement of all forms of paper money, other than their own notes, which the people of this country will then be compelled to accept as money. When this comes about, (and unless it is stopped now) it will come about, the victory of the Shylocks will be complete, for if these banks can now not only prevent the national debt from being reduced, but, on the contrary, can make Congress increase it so they may appropriate themselves, when and where will his power end!
Fourth Coming Man (to a Star)
"I have no doubt that in the message which will be sent to Congress upon the 7th of this month the phrase of 'sound and stable currency' will be used. I want the president of the United States to tell the people of this country and members of Congress what is meant by a 'sound and stable currency.' I will not be satisfied by his saying that he simply wants a currency that does not fluctuate, but I want him to tell the people of this country why he says that gold alone will make that stable standard. Give us the reasons for the faith that is in him. The people of this country are intelligent enough to understand whether the conclusions he reaches are correct ones from the promises laid down. If he does not think that the people are so, then he certainly must think that the members of Congress are, to whom this message will be addressed.
"We meet here to discuss in a calm and dignified way what is best to be done; therefore, I beg leave to submit to the consideration of the convention the following plan. Before doing so, however, permit me to say that I am not particularly wedded to this plan, or to any other, because I know there are objections to it that may prove, upon consideration, to be more formidable than I think they are. Out of it, though, and others which will be submitted to the convention, we may arrive at something which is practicable, it is as follows;
"I challenge our adversaries a route to the free resolution either above or below the ratio of 1:16, or 1:8. I prefer the former. If they do, we will again oppose unconditional repeal of the Sherman law.
"Next - Amend the national banking laws so as to permit any national bank to issue its notes up to the par value of full premium upon the deposit of gold or silver coin other than United States silver coin."
Arthur Armstrong, by repudiating the tax on national bank circulation, demonstrated a commitment to holistically approach taxation. It must be perfectly apparent to those who control the national banks of this country that their very existence depends on a wise solution of this question and that, in any event, they cannot bring about the repeal of the Sherman law and get the people to consent to the issue of more bonds without a long, and desperate struggle, during which time all industries will continue to remain paralyzed. Let them meet us in a spirit of fairness and upon equal ground, enter with us upon the development of some such plan as the one suggested. If this can be brought about, I am sure that not only conciliation will be instantly restored, but that this country will have raised aloft the beacon light, which will lead the world toward prosperity for half a century to come. [Applause.]
The committee on credentials reported that forty-two states and territories were represented and that 510 delegates were entitled to seats on the floor. The committee on rules and order of business presented its report, which was adopted. It provided that all discussion should be confined to the subject of monopolism and that no delegate should be entitled to speak more than five minutes on the same subject. It was ordered that the evening session of today should be devoted to hearing addresses by Senator Stewart.
Collapse of the Pork Corner Engulfed by Chicago Operators.
LEADING PROVISION DEALERS FAIL
Price Drops to an Unlooked-For Cure
John Stidler the Principal Subsider from the Grain History
of the Board.
Chicago, Aug. 1. Today was one of the most disastrous in the history of the Board of Trade of this city, wealthy individuals and firms were bowled over like nine-pins and the prices of hog products went tumbling like an avalanche. Dealers on the Chicago board are accustomed to exciting scenes and kaleidoscopic changes in value, for this market seems to be the storm center where both the upward and downward push in the price of the world's food products is most severely felt; but old members of the board, who had been through the whirl and clatter of many collapsing concerns in both grain and provisions, actually stood aghast at the rapidity with which the firms went down. A sheer drop of $3.25 per barrel on pork inside of three-quarters of an hour is enough to take away the breath of even the most seasoned trader himself.
First Intimation of Trouble.
This morning when Secretary Stover appeared on the balcony of the trading room and notified all concerned that those having trades with the well-known provision brokers firms of J. G. Steever & Co., E. W. Bailey & Co., and A. Helmholz & Co. should proceed to close them out, the silence lasted for a second after the close of the announcement, and then a mighty roar went up from the provision pit.
As early as last March it became apparent to the trade that mess pork was being "bullied" through these houses, and it soon became noised about in the provision trade that A. W. Wright was behind the deal. A year ago he started a corner in ribs, and with the help of Cudahy carried it through to success, making a large amount of money. Apparently, according to the general opinion on the board, he had started to run a similar deal in mess pork.
The collapse has been looked for for some weeks and as the monetary situation became more and more strained, and the borrowing of money to put up margins, more and more thrilling, everybody interested in the deal drew out, leaving the market so dull that there was scarcely enough business to establish quotations. When the bubble finally burst the pieces were so small that it was next to impossible to find them.
The first offer heard by the quotation officer after the announcement of the failure was $18.75, against $10 at the close yesterday; the next bid was $18, then $17.50, and so it went, 50c to $1 at a time, with very little hesitation at any point until the price touched $10.50, a loss of $3.23 per barrel in forty minutes. These are the official figures. But it is reliably vouched for that a sale was made at $10 and several as low as $10, a drop of $11, or nearly 50 percent, or $450,000 on a visible supply of 50,000 barrels. Then the market became quieter, and good buying at the enormous decline carried the price back to $13; and subsequent events had only a temporary effect on it.
Things were moving along with ominous smoothness when another and heavier shock came in the announcement by the secretary of the failures of the North American Packing company, a packager with a capital of $80,000, in which "Jack" Cudahy was largely interested; of Wright & Haughey, a respectable firm, chiefly engaged in the receiving and shipping of wheat, but which was understood to be interested with Cudahy in his deals in the provision pit.
Finally came the failure of Cudahy, the daring operator in provisions, a man whose wealth had recently been estimated at no less than $18,000,000, of which about $2,000,000 was made in the deal in ribs last fall.
The announcement of his failure had scarcely died on the secretary's lips before the storm broke loose again, this time in the lard crowd. That commodity had held extremely steady throughout the slump in pork, but it, in turn, mounted the toboggan and went down as if self-lubricated. The price for September was $7.05 per barrel in the early trading; it was $6.75 within six minutes after Cudahy's failure was announced, and September short ribs, which sold early at $7.25, broke to $6.187. Before the close, however, both rallied, the former to $6.50, the latter to $5.60.
Not Affected by the Crash.
It was said by one close to Mr. Cudahy that his private affairs were entirely separate from his partnership matter and that the various companies in which he is interested with his two brothers, Mike and Ed, are not directly affected by the failure. It is estimated that the losses on the pork alleged to have been bought for Wright are between $400,000 and $500,000. No one pretends to estimate Cudahy's losses. Charlie Wright declares that Cudahy and N.L. Fairbanks, the lard dealer, were interested with him in his deal, and that the trouble came about because they would not put up any more margins. So far as the trade is concerned, Mr. Fairbanks is not known in connection with the deal at all.
John Cudahy has no financial interest in the Cudahy plant at South Omaha, which is owned by Edward and Michael Cudahy. The South Omaha plant will not be affected by the failure or by the troubles of the other "packer" companies.
Moran, Krous, and Mayer, as attorneys for the Chicago Packing and Provision company, announced attachment proceedings in the superior court this afternoon against the North American Provision company for $17,000. The plaintiff company has security for its claim in the shape of margins, but it is feared they have or will be absorbed in the collapse.
Mr. Mayer said nothing had been decided upon as yet in the matter of straightening out Mr. Cudahy's affairs. As far as he knew, Cudahy has associates who can cover twice his indebtedness. Mr. Mayer said Mr. Cudahy was prostrate at his home from the effects of the crash.
Duprieidloin In Silver High (Ivon the Impetus to Other Mining Operation,
SALT LAKE, Aug. 1 [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The depression in the silver market has given a decided stimulus to gold mining in Utah and Nevada. The new gold camp of Ivy in Grass Valley, Nev., has just been explored and information received today from Frisco, UT., the nearest telegraph station, states that William Anderson, old Colorado prospectors who opened up the camp to a depth of forty feet, discovered an immense body of mineral that assays $125 in gold and 125 ounces in silver. A number of other equally good prospects are being developed at Ivy.
News today from the Henry Mountain gold district is to the effect that rich strikes in a dozen new prospects have been made and stamp mills are kept busy crushing ores night and day. This camp is practically unexplored and experienced mining men are confident that the Henry Mountains will be the coming gold district of the west.
A meeting of the directors of the National Bank of Ashland this afternoon requested the comptroller of the currency to make an assessment of 50 per cent and permit the bank to resume business on or before September. The stockholders are all favorable to this proposition. This bank was closed July 30.
DUAL MINE FIELD:
The Smithsonian of the United States Frontier to the National Bank.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1. A new and unexpected measure of relief has been injected into the financial situation. United States bonds have reached such a low figure that the national banks see their way clear to make a profit by issuing certificates against them. Arrangements have therefore been made by several of the more prominent banks to increase their circulation from the minimum limit, at which it now stands, to such an amount as will materially relieve the present tension. It is estimated that $8,000,000 or $10,000,000 will be so added to New York's supply of currency within a very short time. Orders have already been placed with the comptroller of the currency for part of the new bills and some of the banks have bought their bonds preparatory to depositing them in Washington. Among the banks that are named as interested in the movement are the Gallatin, Fourth, Merchants, First National New York, and Park.
New Hills Ordered Encouraging:
The Fourth National has already ordered $2,000,000 in bills engraved and the Gallatin about $800,000. The latter bank has purchased $700,000 of the bonds and the Bank of New York $600,000. The rest of the amount will be made up among the other banks named.
The currency movement today was lighter than it has been for some time, being estimated at less than $750,000. The subtreasury was a creditor at the clearing house for $105,000, about half of which was paid in gold. Exchanges over the counter at the subtreasury was about $400,000, including $300,000 in silver. Gold was paid out to the amount of $2,000,000, and $700,000 was received from San Francisco by telegraph. The issue of loan certificates was increased $1,400,000, raising the total to $29,450,000. Today's issue was for the purpose of facilitating the gold imports.
The shipment of gold from England for New York by today's steamers reached 100,000. Part of this was in eagles and double eagles and will probably be returned in the very kegs with seal unbroken, in which they were shipped to London during our recent specie export movement.
Arrangements were also reported to have been made at Chicago for the import of $2,000,000 in gold direct by the First National Bank of Chicago; $2,000,000 by the Bank of Nova Scotia in that city and $1,000,000 by the Illinois Trust and Savings institution, this gold being engaged against the forwarding of wheat, and products to England, the machinery of the operation being similar to that employed by the New York banks in their import of gold against the transfer of American securities to London. The total gold now afloat from Europe for America, most of it due here within a week, is between $7,000,000 and $8,000,000.
Scarcity of Currency:
About the only difficulty the banks now have to contend with, it is said, is the great scarcity of currency.
It was said that the loan certificates issued today practically represent the gold that has been ordered from London, as they were taken out by one of the large banks which lent money to some of the gold importing houses to buy foreign exchange. It is not believed that the total amount of certificates will be much increased after today. The first heavy importations of gold will arrive this week, after which, it is expected there will be a considerable easing up in the situation, as a consequence thereof.
Harvey Fish & Sons, who make a specialty of government bonds, today sent a circular to national bank officers, urging "the importance of enlarging their circulation. They said: "There is room for an increase of over $100,000,000, provided the bonds can be secured for deposit. The banks can perform a service by increasing circulation, receive a reward in the shape of large profits, and demonstrate to the public that a properly secured bank currency is the best which a country can have, because it expands when needed and contracts when not needed.
INCREASING NATIONAL CIRCULATION:
New York National Bank Preparing to Issue a Large Amount of Notes.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. The financial distress is to be relieved from a quarter that has not been looked to for succor. The report of the treasury department, issued today, shows that in July the circulation of national banks was increased over $5,000,000. Comptroller Eckels was asked tonight what was the significance of the increase.
"It is due," he said, "in a large part to the low price of government bonds, which makes the issue of currency, even when restricted to 60 per cent of the par value of bonds deposited to secure it, a profitable venture for the banks. Four per cents are now quoted at $1.08, which is quite a fall from the maximum figure which they have attained. Then the stringency of the money market makes it desirable that the circulating medium shall be increased as much as possible. National bank notes secured by government bonds are a very satisfactory currency.
"In the quarter ended July 31 the net increase of the national bank note circulation was something over $3,000,000, and it will be increased this month at least that amount, in my opinion. The department sent out over 500 today and received applications from three New York banks for the issue of $1,500,000 to each of them, $1,000,000 being deposited with each of the applications."
"Will you recommend this limitation to 60 per cent of the par value of the bonds in case of the restrictions to the issue of circulation be removed?"
"I don't care to say as to that. It is a recommendation that has been repeatedly made by comptrollers in their reports, but my time has been so taken up with matters of current topics that I have had no opportunity to consider it yet."
NATIONAL DEBT STATISTICS:
Figures from the Treasury Department that Will Interest Interloping, Receiving,
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. The debt statement issued this evening shows a net increase in the public debt, less cash in the treasury, during July of $126,637,107.03. The interest-bearing debt increased $600, the non-interest-bearing debt decreased $11,050,500, and the cash in the treasury decreased by $119,586,607.03.
The balance of the several classes of debt at the close of business July 31 were: Interest-bearing debt, $81,017,910; debt on which interest has ceased since maturity, $2,081,522,352; and debt bearing no interest, $17,700,920; total sum, $31,121,021.03.
The certificates and treasury notes, set off by an equal amount of cash in the treasury outstanding at the end of the month, were $377,752,541, a decrease of $7,101,630. The total cash in the treasury was $7,901,707.17, The gold reserve was $5,000,000, and 4,500 cash balances, $18,654,017.57.
In the month there was a decrease in gold coin and bars of $1,904,641.41, the total at the close being $5,809,581.55. Of silver there was an increase of $610,407.30. Of the surplus there was in national bank depositories $17,044,031.17, against $21,000,580.50 at the end of the previous month. The receipts for the month of July were $30,130,841.65, and the expenditures $11,675,825.75. In June the receipts were $30,033,621.65, and the expenditures $23,025,851.30. Customs receipts decreased from $19,600,800.01 to $14,800,007.50, and the internal revenue receipts increased from $12,003,127.50 to $15,812,727.50. The payments for pensions increased from $14,615,898.37 to $14,707,808.37.
Bank Note Outstanding: WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. The total amount of bank notes outstanding is $183,055,112,20, an increase of $5,619,898 during the month. This is an unusually heavy increase, occasioned by the fact that many national banks are increasing their circulation. The number of new banks being organized is unusually small.
ARGENTINA REVOLUTIONISTS Provincial Police Powerless to Produce Peace at Present. THEY HAVE SEIZED MANY CITIES Prevalent Yet Provincial and the Authority They Threatened National Troops Intercede. Revolutions abound in Argentina, Bolivia, and Brazil.
VALPARAISO, Chili (via Galveston, Tex.), Aug. 1. (By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to THE BAND.) Dispatches from the Herald's correspondent in Buenos Aires, Argentina, show that demonstrations against the provincial governments of the provinces of Buenos Aires, San Luis, and Santa Fe are gaining continually. Revolutionists in the province of San Luis won a complete triumph. They have deposed the provincial government and established another with a pronounced radical at its head. The situation there is very grave, many miles of railroad being torn up.
Complete success has not yet been won in the provinces of Santa Fe and Buenos Aires, but the insurgents are gaining everywhere. Along the coast of the province of Buenos Aires and up the Parana river, which forms the eastern boundary of the province of Santa Fe, all the towns have been seized by the insurgents. Little resistance was made by most of them.
Forty towns in the province of Buenos Aires alone are now held by the revolutionists and all the camp districts under their control. Rails have been torn up along many railway lines to prevent the movement of troops and the prefect of the Parana river has ordered steamer captains not to take passengers into Santa Fe.
More actual fighting has been done in the province of Santa Fe so far than in the other provinces where the revolutions have been started, but a great battle is expected in or near the city of La Plata, where Governor Costa of the province of Buenos Aires has taken a position at the head of 2,200 provincial troops. The city of Buenos Aires is in a ferment concerning the expected battle, because victory for civic nationals, as the rebels call themselves, but who are really radicals, means that they will probably completely overthrow the provincial government. The revolutionary forces have surrounded La Plata and Governor Costa and his troops are practically shut in. They are under siege and will probably be forced to fight their way out of the city.
Bahia Blanca, on Bahia Blanca Bay at the extreme southern point of the province of Buenos Aires, was captured today by the revolutionists. The police made a short resistance, but were forced to surrender. This gives the revolutionists almost complete control of the Great Southern railroad which runs from Buenos Aires City to Bahia Blanca.
In the province of Santa Fe, the revolutionists against Governor Cafferata are rapidly gaining. They have seized many towns. A large body of revolutionary troops, largely composed of colonists from Europe, is marching toward the city of Santa Fe, which is the capital of the provinces. Notice has been given Governor Cafferata that unless he surrenders the city by daybreak tomorrow and agrees to give up control of the province, a bombardment will be opened. It is not doubted that the revolutionists could readily take the city by storm. Possibly the governor may surrender without courting such a misfortune.
Cannot hold back the Insurgents. His enemies are winning such triumphs that he cannot hope to overcome them without direct aid from national troops and this is not likely to be given. The city of Rosario, the largest in the province of Santa Fe, is already in the hands of the revolutionary forces. It is reported that 100 people were killed and wounded during the fighting with the insurgents and the police of that city.
The people of the city of Buenos Aires are greatly excited and are waiting eagerly for news of the revolution. President Penn whose administration is not threatened by the revolutionists, is anxious about the outcome. He fears that the prolonging of the revolt may result in a general uprising and national troops may be necessary.
A cabinet meeting was held last night, at which it was decided to ask congress to sanction federal intervention in the disturbed provinces. The senate voted favorably upon the proposal today, and it is now being considered by the chamber of deputies.
Buenos Aires papers say that the stories sent to London papers from Rio de Janeiro about the revolution in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, are absolutely false.
The Herald's correspondent in Rio de Janeiro telegraphs that the officials in Santa Catharina have seized the Argentine steamer Furuta. They claimed the right to search her to find whether arms for the Brazilian rebels were aboard. The Argentine consul made a vigorous protest against the seizure.
A deficit of $600,000 in the Uruguayan budget is reported.
During the burglary in Plattsburgh (via Galveston), Aug. 1. (Special Telegram to The Herald.) A youth, whose fleetness of foot was characteristic, was the perpetrator of a burglary in this city last night. He broke into the home of Charles Metier by cutting a screen door and carried off a shotgun, a silver watch, a suit of clothes, and several other articles of wearable apparel. The stolen goods were valued at $50. The loss was discovered this morning, and the police were notified and a search immediately instituted. The police soon discovered the thief in a boxcar down in the Burlington yards with a grip containing the Metier goods. He jumped out of the opposite door of the car and ran across on the big sandbar opposite town and was soon lost to view in the dense foliage. The police gave chase and followed the fellow for over three hours, but he finally eluded his pursuers and got across the Platte river bridge into Sarpy county. The chase was fully six miles in length, through the thickest kind of willows and scrub reeds. The thief dropped all of the property but the watch in his flight, and the pursuit continued.
At Sioux City, Aug. 1. The president remained at home today. The only caller was a gentleman from Boston, who was unwilling to give his name.

Horrible Crime of Three GAIVESTON, Aug. 1. Near Montgomery, three negroes attacked the house of Mr. Marsh, killed him, assaulted his wife, murdered his infant, and cut out the tongue of his seven-year-old child. His wife is reported to be dying. One negro was caught and lynched. The sheriff and posse are searching for the others.
This ends.
In Aug. 1. [Special to The Union.] W. J. Callendar, the postmaster at Woodline, has a pretty young wife and one of his clerks, Dick Welch, seems to have fully appreciated the lady's charms. Callender was aroused at Welch's demonstration of affection, and while reaching for his gun with the evident intention of dealing out summary vengeance, Welch forestalled his employer's movements by getting the drop on him, thus securing an opportunity to escape without bloodshed. Mr. Callender is one of the most enterprising, reliable, and successful business men of the town, highly respected by everybody, and was passionately attached to his wife and child, but this unfairness has broken up the family, a separation having taken place immediately. After a speedy disposal of his business matters, Mr. Callender started for Callender's Ferry, leaving his wife behind.
Thousands of colored people from the surrounding country ended their journey in Ottumwa on the first day of August. A parade followed by a picnic and speeches by Rev. Mr. Clemens and others marked the day's exercises. The climax was reached at Cardington Dyle's, where a ball game and other amusements finished the day's events.
Clarence S. Wilson, the veteran newspaper man, is very ill and is not expected to recover. His physician called a consultation last night and every thing known to the medical fraternity will be done to prolong his life, but it is said to be almost a hopeless case.
"Aunt" Cindy Hell, an aged colored woman of this city, celebrated her 102nd birthday today. "Aunt" Cindy made clothes for a living and works every day. She has apparently many more birthdays on earth.
"American Week" at the Columbian exposition grows daily into a reality. At a late meeting of the Associated American exhibitors, representing over 1000 at the exposition, the directors submitted a plan for the proposed celebration, which was formally approved.

William (Dick) Willis No. 7 Portland, M.
August 1. [Special Telegram to The BEK.] A warrant for the arrest of William Giles was today placed in the hands of Sheriff Kyle, on complaint of Calvin Thacker of Barneston, Neb., who represents that yesterday morning Giles made an unprovoked attack on his aged father, Jeremiah Thacker, striking him over the head with a wagon necktie, fracturing his skull, from the effects of which he is said to be dying.
Giles, who is described as a man 28 years old, smooth face and hair cut pompously, bears a hard reputation, and, it is said, is wanted by Kansas officers for other offenses. Immediately after committing the assault he mounted his horse and made his escape. The officers are, however, close on his track and his capture is considered certain. Much indignation exists in the neighborhood in which the crime was committed, and should the culprit return to that vicinity he would undoubtedly be roughly handled.
TO THE EDITOR:
Anthony Comstock will Attempt to Suppress the Denial of Indians in the Street in Cairo, Midway Palace. Mr. Comstock went up to the palace this afternoon and purchased one of the catalogues, armed with which he posted to President Higgins's office and entered his objection. He had picked out a line in the catalogue, where the dance was announced and had it bracketed. President Higgins said that the part where the dance was being performed was being done with a contract.
The fire which broke out yesterday at the stockyards' old horse and mule market in Kansas City destroyed the stockyards' old horse and mule market. Thirty-five horses, thirty sets of harness, six empty cars of hay, and one bale of straw were consumed. The loss is $500, insured.
In Iowa, Aug. 1. Special to The BEE.:
Richard Good, a farmer near here, lost his new barn and all its contents by fire, including two horses, wagons, buggy, harness, farm machinery, saddle, hay, grain, etc. The origin of the fire is a mystery.
In Carson, Iowa, Aug. 1. Special to The BEE.:
A tenant house on the farm of J. U. Grifiths, one mile west of Carson, burned yesterday afternoon, from a defunct line by loss, about partially insured. The contents, belonging to James Tyler, were only partly saved. No insurance.
In Missouri, Aug. 1. Special Telegram to The BEE.:
The Shaver Carriage company factory was burned this morning. The total loss will reach at least $4,030. Total insurance, not over $4,000. An empty oil can was found this morning lying near the place where the fire originated, which apparently leaves no doubt but that it was started by an incendiary.
In Boise, Idaho, Aug. 1. A fire that threatens to destroy the city is now in progress. The Central hotel and two blocks are burning.

Settlement of the Siam-Salween Difficulty Not Yet Attained by the French,
BLOCKADE OF BANGKOK'S PORT COMPLETE
Admiral Hunting's Notice of the Extension of the Blockade to the Powers Ends Today.
Bangkok, Aug. 1. [New York Times Cable-Special to The BEE.] Admiral Hunting's notice of the extension of the blockade to the powers ends today. No settlement of the difficulty has yet been reached, and negotiations looking to the adjustment of details of the Indemnity and fixing the new boundaries are still in progress.
The French patrol captured a local steamer Saturday. The officers released the passengers, being British subjects. The crew of the steamer got away.
Communications with the outer world are ended, and stores in Bangkok are already getting low. Still, the Siamese are strengthening their defenses, although everything is yet quiet.
At the city of Hua Hin, negotiations have become secret and absolutely nothing can be learned of them. English and German gunboats entered the Mekong river and came to anchor off the city.
Prince Vadhanabongse has signified his government's willingness to concede the supplementary guarantees demanded by France. M. de Ville also stated that his interview yesterday with Lord Dufferin was based on the negotiations, which took place in 1880 between France and Great Britain, which recognized the principle of a buffer state between the French and British possessions in the east. The question of a neutral zone, M. de Ville added, had been reserved for future consideration. The supplementary guarantees demanded by France from Siam were contained in a note issued by M. de Ville yesterday and made public today.
The text of the note is as follows: "His Majesty the King of Siam, considering the delay of Siam in accepting the ultimatum presented by the French minister resident at Bangkok, however, to give further proof of the spirit of moderation by which she has been constantly instigated, France will be content if us an inducement for the practical execution of the clauses of the ultimatum with regard to occupying the river and port of Chanthaburi until the complete evacuation of the posts established by Siam on the left bank of the Mekong river.
"Further, for the purpose of guaranteeing the continuance of the good relationship happily established between France and Siam and for proving a continuance in the spirit of improvement, Siam will undertake to maintain no artillery for the defense in Batavia and Stung Reveng and in the locality situated within a radius of twenty-five kilometers of the Mekong river, starting from the Cambodian frontier. Siam will only maintain the police force necessary to preserve order. Moreover, Siam will not maintain warships or armed boats on the waters of the great lake or the Mekong river."
Lord Dufferin and M. de Ville held a consultation on the subject.
In London, Aug. 1. A dispatch from Paris to the Associated Press states that Lord Dufferin, British ambassador to France, and de Ville, French foreign minister, at an interview yesterday merely amplified the papers already prepared for signatures.
Inquiry at the foreign office elicits the information that the discussion was confined to the rough draft of the convention for the delimitation of frontiers of the territory to be handed over to France by the Siamese and the formation of a protectorate country between French and British possessions.
In London, Aug. 1. In the House of Lords, the Earl of Kimberley, secretary of state for foreign affairs, read the text of the first ultimatum and of the supplementary ultimatum sent by France to Siam. He added: "We have signed an agreement in Paris establishing a neutral zone in Indo-China."
In Washington, Aug. 1. Representative Catchings, leading member of the House committee on rules, was an early caller on Mr. Crisp today and remained in the speaker's rooms during the afternoon. He says the rules will probably be adopted very soon after the House is called to order and that there is no political reason for any radical revision.
Members of the House now in Washington are still in the dark as to the agenda of the democratic House caucus. There are as yet very few representatives in the city. It is impossible that there will be a caucus of the majority of the Senate this week. Senator Connelly, the chairman of the democratic caucus in the Senate, is here, but has not yet issued a call. It will be necessary for the democratic senators to get together and decide upon a line of policy respecting the question which will probably be the first to engage serious attention in the Senate - namely, the right of admission of three senators from the Northwest whose terms have been prolonged by Senator Connelly. He feels that there is no need for haste in the matter, and the caucus will probably not be held before the middle of next week.
Secretary Carlisle left here this afternoon for Burswood's landing to discuss with the president the chances before the latter completes his message on the silver question. The secretary carried with him much information specially collected at the president's request. It is understood that the president's message will deal solely with the financial situation and it is expected that the president will leave for Washington Tuesday evening and that a special cabinet meeting will be held on Monday, at which the message will be rendered.
In St. Louis, Aug. 1.- A delegation of Missouri miners held a meeting here today to take action regarding the Capsas strike. A committee was appointed to meet likewise from the Kansas miners and the operators to arbitrate the Kansas strike. It was voted to strike in body next Monday if the operators do not agree to arbitration by Thursday. At the convention, some 800 miners were represented.
In Marysville, Aug. 1. Richard Sharkey was killed by his son-in-law, William Giles, near here last night. The murder was the result of an argument. | 8 |

Superior, Neb., Aug. 1. [Special to The Omaha Bee.] Superior is a lively and bustling little city under any and all circumstances, but is outdoing herself just now on the occasion of the Interstate reunion of the Grand Army of the Republic and National guard of this state and Kansas. This reunion seems to be not alone one of battle-scarred veterans of the war and their equally ambitious and patriotic successors, those in the militia, but a grand family gathering of the sturdy yeomanry of the whole surrounding country as well. This is probably no one of the richest agricultural and stock-raising sections of the state, and the town of Superior certainly has a splendid future before it. It is superbly located in the luxuriant valley of the Republican, with its broad streets systematically laid out, its substantial and modern business structures, its handsome and cozy residences, nourishing industrial enterprises, immense cattle interests and limitless agricultural resources, and its establishment at this happy juncture some sixteen years ago shown that its founders were not insensible to its manifold advantages. It is a marvelous fact that while the pioneers who selected the site for this flourishing little city chose it solely on account of what they believed to be its agricultural facilities, it has proved an ideally fitting home for the manufacturer and stock dealer. View it either from a utilitarian or agricultural standpoint, Superior is an ideal western town.
Mirroring of the City.
To the west and south of it flows the beautiful Republican, a subject for painter or poet; here are measureless pasture lands and plots of corn, wheat, and oats that resemble worlds within themselves. A natural gateway between two great states, it also lies in the very center of the most fecund portion of the land; surrounding in all directions are rich loams for the farmer and fine clay for the potter or the brick-maker, boundless meadows and attractive lawns; picturesque valleys, rolling prairies; grasses for stock, plenty of water and mates of timber for shade; deep blue skies for the scientist and yellowing grain for the tellers; none can view all these rich and fertile lands without becoming enraptured.
Like all embryonic western towns, Superior has had to struggle, but the past is now looked upon as a thumping and the present as a continuation of the effort for greater success, and there can be but one future the town is bound to take rank with the best in the state.
The broad plateau of the growing town makes it a fine railroad center and no less than seven different lines meet there, just opposite the encampment, within the space of a couple of hundred yards. Most of the traffic from north to south passes through Superior, which is the great central market for the entire Republican valley. The Kansas line is just one mile south and Jewell County, just over the border, has for the past sixteen years, according to statistics, stood first of all counties in the state in corn, cattle, and hogs. But the citizens of this fine region will not rest content with their grain and their stock, but are paying much attention to the development of manufacturing industries, and can already make a most creditable showing, with the Superior flour mills, as good as there is in the state, and pressed brick factory, owned and operated by the Gutchell family; a large now s own sion factory, under the supervision of C. Cochran, one of the Kingsford's oldest men; two flourishing brick yards, and one of the largest creameries and cold storage establishments in Nebraska.
There is no lamentation over hard times here. C. B. Adams, cashier of the First National Bank, told me this morning that times had never seemed better or more prosperous here; there was plenty of money and collections through the banks have been easier than at any time within a period of half a century. He also said that the town makes a phenomenal showing both in trade and production. During the past year there has been an increase in the value received and shipped, in capital invested in manufactures, in the value of manufactured products, and in the number of workmen engaged in the various industries. He also thinks that from the incomparable location of Superior, its natural advantages of agriculture, stock, and trade, its network of railroads, reaching out into the state in every direction, and the enterprising character of its business men, have greatly expanded the territory controlled by the business of the town, until Superior will in time be represented in trade all over the state. In all this, A. J. Briggs, president of the Bank of Superior, concurred. Of course, both gentlemen are very enthusiastic, but not inclined to be exaggerated. Mr. Briggs, in addition to his bank interests, is a well-known stockman and is particularly proud of his horses. He is the secretary of the State Breeders association whose annual meeting opens up at the driving park in Omaha next week, and is an enterprising and thoroughgoing business man in every essential detail.
Just west of the big camp is the famous ranch of ex-Speaker of the House Kiofter, which stretches away up the Republican valley to the extent of 8,000 acres a magnificent ranch, tenanted at present by 10,000 head of steers. On this side is the HI Cap Ranch, a 6,000 acre ranch owned by the Superior Cattle company, now fattening one 11,000 head for the fall market; the Schmelling Brothers are also big cattle dealers and L. N. Beal owns an extensive ranch just east of the town, A. C. McNeil is another large stock dealer, with not only big interests here, but also in Colorado and Wyoming. The Venlet Brothers, the Hainsman, and several others are also deep in the cattle trade. Outside of Omaha, Superior is the biggest cattle market in Nebraska.
Colonel Adams, commander of Camp Lincoln, was quite right. He said that the crowd would be here in earnest today. While all the military expected have not yet arrived, the people of the surrounding country seem to have about all recovered from their astonishment to roll up and the attendance aggregates way up into the thousands, and still they come, up to noon all but a few of the old tents were occupied and many additional ones were put up, individual parties in many instances bringing and pitching their own, and from the sunrise to the sunset gun the encampment presented the appearance of some fair. Adjutant General Lagow arrived at noon. He was met at the depot by several hundred of the Grand Army boys and with martial music escorted to the grounds, where he was welcomed with a salute of thirteen guns and other soldierly honors. The general would not even wait to regale himself with refreshments, but like an old soldier, pitched right in, and within an hour had his snug quarters set up immediately in front of the quarter master's pavilion.
Church Hero and Governor Crouse also arrived and were royally received, and General Thayer will be in on the morning train, Arrivals During the Day: This afternoon Colonel Thomas Schuler of White Rock delivered an address of welcome, the stand being surrounded by possibly 8,000 old veterans, military men, women, and children. The colonel was eloquent to a fault, especially when addressing his old comrades. Following the colonel, Prof. Andrews, the governor's private secretary and a man with countless friends in this vicinity, delivered a sounding address, as did also Colonel O. H. Coulter, editor of the Western Veteran of Kansas City. There were numerous short addresses by old soldiers, songs, and music and regular camp fire, in which thousands took part.
This evening a big campfire is being held, presided over by that general and master writer General Grant, who knows just what to do and what to say to reach the old, old times. The Hill appies that these yearly gatherings are for the purpose of renewing old friendships, of talking over the famous old times in the service. He longs and arduous tramps by night and by day, and recounting the thrilling experiences in skirmish and battle. There was much said and done last night in merriment, but a great deal of seriousness was manifest when the discussion of Hoke Smith and his onslaught on the pensioners of the war was taken up.
In Fargo on Hoke Smith.
It was a good thing for Hoke that he was neither within ear nor gunshot. There is an intense feeling among the old veterans, but regardless of whether they be republicans, democrats or populists, and it is quite probable that the Grand Army of the Republic will yet make itself loudly heard on this subject.
It was not until midnight that the campfire numbers faded, sorting to do a veteran scornful of parting from his comrades even for the short interval that intervenes before the dawning of tomorrow. But gradually the sound of the speaker's voice died away and laughter and mirth ceased, and only the footfall of the guard as he paced his lonely beat disturbed the deep hush of the morning.
Under the Tents.
The encampment presents an exhilarating appearance this morning. Indeed, and old vets, militiamen and citizens are in high feather. All morning conveyances of every imaginable description have been converging here, and to put the crowd at 5,000 would be a moderate estimate. Every tent is occupied and many people have camped in the open air. All of the incoming trains too have brought their freight load of illustrious persons. Among the arrivals were Hon. Churoh Cluvve, Hon. W.U. Andrews, Colonel Thomas Schulter, senior vice commander; Colonel Pond, Junior vice commander; Captain Lyon, 3rd company H of the Second regiment, and scores and scores of others. The balloon ascension of Prof. Stickler was last opening was an undertaking much enjoyed by the big crowd.
There was lots of sport at the encampment last night, the old soldiers endeavoring to make more over the arduous days that tried men's souls. They gathered about the blazing campfire, and with song and story consumed much of the evening. There was plenty of music and also, but no speech-making, unless the anecdotes and recollections of General Grant could be led speeches. He was incessantly the center of an interested and hilarious crowd, and as a story teller carries away the laurels of the camp. He is one of the old most favorites.
They Had Their Own Way.
The big crowd today was bent upon having a jolly time for all; it was wet, though, and the camp was the scene of joyous turmoil all day. The soldiers drilled and marched and paraded; laughed, chatted and joked; the country ladies and their best girls giggled and shrieked as they dashed around and around on the merry-go-round's wooden horses; the life and drum corps jilted the air with martial strains, the band blew its brains out and Young America made a Fourth of July out of all his glee generally. The cynics may growl, as they always have, about the senseless chatter and erratic method of celebration, and the utilitarian philosopher may argue, as he always has, that it is a shocking waste of powder to no purpose, that it mulls all thought, unstrings the nerves, and should be prohibited by force, but Young America will swim along for all time in the same old channel mapped out for him 100 years or more ago by the great and good John Adams, the man who did more to secure the passage of the Declaration that Thomas Jefferson framed than any other member of the continental congress. And yet it all floated the old Flag in the soft summer winds. In fact, there were Flags everywhere, on the tents, the fence posts, booth tops and even in the brocade hats of the Grand Army men, and the button holes in the blouses of their faded blue blouses. The sight was an enlivening one, as well as pathetic. But this is not the time for moralizing; instead, let the band play on; let the urchins shoot and yelp; let lovers ride their horses; let the drummer beat his drum and the lifer blow his life, and let all of us look upon and honor forevermore the Flag of Washington, of Adams and Jefferson, of Lincoln, Logan, Thomas and Grant, and a million and one heroes and patriots, sainted and unsainted, with every show of loyalty and pride, with proud and joyful hearts; for the bravest, the best and noblest man on earth is how honored from the dust and dishonor of the blue-coated soldier. These be his days, so let us all join in rejoicing unalloyed with him, as a token of our appreciation of what he did for the land we love so dearly.
How the Week Will End.
Tomorrow will be given over entirely to the Woman's Relief Corps, the women of the Grand Army of the Republic and the Daughters of the veterans. There will be speeches, balloons and a campfire in the evening, the whole to be presided over by Miss M. Hunter of Lincoln City, department president, while addresses will be made by Nora Nice of Red Cloud, Miss Minnie Boyles of Red Cloud, Miss Alice Mahaffy of Edgar, Miss Mary Boyles of Red Cloud, Miss Nellie Deever, Mrs. Head and Miss Mahaffy.
Thursday General A.G. Weissner, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, of Milwaukees; Hon. N.P. Hepburn of Iowa, ex-Governor Thayer, Governor Crounse and Tom Majors will shoot off the senatorial brochures, after which a sham battle between the Nebraska and Kansas National Guards will take place; supplementary to which will be the daily artillery and infantry drills, target practice, parades and camp life.
Friday Hon. John J. Ingalls, the silver-tongued Kansas orator will address the encampment, as will also Generals G.H. Hasting and H.C. Russell of this state. Captain A.H. Sheeley and others. Succeeding these addresses will be the big sham battle of the week, under the military supervision of General Dilworth. A fortress is to be thrown up on the broad knoll just north of the broad plateau on which these battles are fought, and which, as a preliminary, is to be bombarded in turn by artillery, then assaulted by cavalry and infantry. The review will also be held on this day as well as the combined parade of veterans, militiamen and "squashers" from Camp Lincoln to the city and return. In the evening there will be a balloon ascension and parachute jump, and the usual camping at night.
Saturday, the last day, will witness but the one demonstration that of breaking camp.
"Africa" was "explored" by a large number of delighted people at Boat's new theater last evening.
This latest operetta extravaganza, with George Thatcher and a galaxy of clever companions in the cast, was evidently conceived to keep an audience in good humor. It constitutes a festival of laughter. There are more original "itchy airs" in the operetta, and plenty of excellent singers in the company that presented it last evening to an Omaha audience for the first time.
The musical honors of the evening were divided among H.J. Jose, B.W. Flinnan, Miss Helen Bron, Miss Grace Hamilton and Raymon Moore. Mr. Jose, the heavy-weight tenor, is always a favorite in Omaha. After the Ball" is a melody that has been worn almost threadbare by the whistling public, Mr. Jose recovered an ovation when he sang it last evening. Raymon Moore was in his usual good form and still earning his copyright as "the ladies' favorite." The Misses Dixon, as the twin "Men in Black," were in the bloom of popular favor.
Oporgo Thatcher maintained his usual standard of excellence in comedy. John A, Colicmu, "the man with the marvelous leg," was the evening's favorite, while Otis Harlan, in his follicking way, caused the audience to go into spasms of laughter. Mr. Harlan, however, somewhat overdid his part in several places. The company as a whole is a good one, even to the chorus. The scenic effects include a series of auxiliary stage pictures, both pretty and pleasing. The acrobatic features of the Brit scene in the second act, by Messrs. Daldwin, Daly, Reynolds, Hickey, and Hicky, received the enthusiastic and deserved approval of the audience. "Africa" has made a decided hit in Omaha, and as a fun producer is destined to be crowned with popularity by the American theater-going public. His next production.
The store at the corner of Seventh and Leavenworth streets was robbed of its day's receipts about 10 o'clock last night by two young men. One volunteered into the place and engaged the proprietor in conversation, while the other "tapped the till." The robbery was soon discovered and officers were put to work on the case. The amount stolen will not exceed $50.
SILVER HOSTS ASSEMBLED
[CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1]
of Nevada and Congressman W. J. Bryan of Nebraska.
PORTFOLIO
In response to general demands, Hon. T. V. Powerly of the Knights of Labor addressed the convention briefly, as follows: "Twenty-five thousand if nights of Labor," said he, "stand today on the verge of ruin on our western streets. Ten thousand are already idle, and 50,000 have advised me to come here and say that the west is in danger from those who would demonetize silver and drive it from the country. Did no Knight of Labor tell me to come here, this would be my place. [Applause.] As an American, I believe we are capable of managing our own affairs. [Applause] Let us, then, honor and uphold the flag and the institutions of our country, I believe we should be able to manage our country, free from any foreign distinction beyond the water. When we stand here listening to the voice from Washington, commanding us to listen only to those advocating the gold standard, we are listening to the voice that comes from across the sea. [Applause] Governor Walter has been criticized because he referred to the old country. He was right. [Applause] It is time we should shake off the shackles of those who would fasten them on our limbs from across the water. But let us, in our deliberations, be calm, cool, and deliberate; for if there was a time in the history of America when cool, calm deliberation was necessary, that hour is at hand. [Cries of "What is right."] "I do not believe in saying that the Jews are the only ones who are to blame. We hear too much of that. Why, I know Christians who know how to rake in usury in such a way as to give points to Judas Iscariot. [Great laughter and applause] "At Omaha a convention was held that declared for the free and unlimited coinage of silver. I have shown how the Knights of Labor stand on that question. Let me say they stand a unit on it not in the west, not in the north, the south, or in the east alone, but wherever they are, the Knights of Labor, if they are true to their obligations, and they all are, stand for the free and unlimited coinage of silver on a ratio of 1 to 1. [Tremendous applause and cheers]. Ignatius Donnelly."
Hon. Ignatius Donnelly was called for and spoke for over half an hour. He denounced the act of 1878 as a crime and the permanent depreciation of silver as the result of a great conspiracy among the capitalists of Europe and their tools and fellow capitalists of America. He then asked for all who believed that John Sherman had done more good than harm to hold up their hands. Not a hand went up. He then asked for all who believed that Sherman had done more harm than pestilence and war to hold up their hands. Nearly every hand in the house went up, and the chairman announced the vote as 310 to 0, this being the exact number of delegates reported by the official committee, and it brought forth loud applause. The convention now took a recess until 8:30 a.m.
At the Sixth Session.
Central Music Hall was crowded to the doors tonight by people assembled to listen to speeches by Senator Stewart of Nevada and Congressman Bryan of Nebraska. Senator Stewart spoke first. He referred to the closing of the mines in India to silver coinage by the British government, pointing out that the action of the English people was almost simultaneous with that of President Cleveland in calling the extra session of congress. The senator said that it looked very much as if it were a preconceived arrangement of both governments to demonetize silver.
Congressman Bryan spoke for fully two hours. His arguments were to the effect that the present financial crisis was not caused by the silver legislation now on the statute books.
The committee on resolutions of the silver convention met at the Palmer House tonight and chose ex-Senator Reagan of Texas as chairman, and Robert Schilling of Wisconsin secretary. A subcommittee, consisting of Senator Reagan, Congressman Bryan of Nebraska, Thomas M. Patterson of Colorado, ex-Congressman Bartine of Nevada, Ignatius Donnelly of Minnesota, George Washburne of Massachusetts, and Mr. Manion of Alabama, was selected to draft the resolutions and report to the committee at 10 a.m. tomorrow morning.
Output of the Mints for July.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. The coinage executed at the United States mints during July was very light, being only 5,550 pieces of the value of $65,000, as follows: Gold, 5,550 pieces, value, $30,000; silver, 1,900 pieces, value, $3,100; and minor coin, 1,178,000 pieces, value $13,000. The coinage for August promises to be heavier, the mints at New Orleans and San Francisco having orders to resume coinage on a larger scale than during July.
Thomas Edison's Statement on Shutting Down.
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Aug. 1. The shut-down at the Edison Phonograph works is only partial. The total number discharged was 240. Mr. Edison today issued the following statement: "The New Jersey Phonograph works have been shut down because we have completed all the orders on hand, and the proprietor thereof, being that the country had reduced itself into a national lunatic asylum, decided to halt until the wave subsided somewhat."
Application for Receiver.
Cheyenne, Aug. 1. On application of the company today, a receiver was appointed for the Wyoming-Detroit Lumber company, reckoned among the most extensive in its line in the west. The company's assets are $60,000; liabilities, $120,000. The failure is attributed to the suspension of a bank at Kankakee, where the company has its factory.
Return from New York.
DENVER, Aug. 1. Mr. J. Lawrence has returned from New York, where he says he obtained financial backing and the permission of the comptroller of the treasury, so that he can start the People's National bank of Denver in operation at any time.
Denver Bankruptcy.
DESPER, Aug. 1. The Denver Salo Deposit and Trust company assigned this morning. Assets, $100,000; liabilities, $100,000. The bank's creditors caused the assignment by pushing the bank into insolvency.

"OUTLOOK AND FIRM IN LONDON",
LONDON, Aug. 1, Stocks were very quiet. American Railways were firmer.
"HOUELIN NATIONAL BANK",
Mr. Hoes of Twenty-ninth and N Streets, South Omaha, was robbed of $5,000 Monday afternoon. He had drawn the money out of the bank recently, believing it safer in his hands. He kept the coin in a sewing machine drawer and someone located it. The family were absent from the room for a short time and on their return the robbery was discovered. He has requested the aid of the Omaha and South Omaha police in assisting him to recover his hard-earned money.
MORE THAN RECOVERED,
The police, after recovering $700 worth of tailor's bolts of cloth, recovered about $910 more of the stolen goods. A half bushel of empty potato boxes were found and a dozen or more steers were taken to the police station. The detectives who have been working on the case believe this place has been used as a sort of fence for stolen property. A great many of the articles which were recovered are alleged to have been taken by soldiers.
"VERNON IS TO FLOW",
Hoar Two Encampments' Scotland Avenue Were Licked in Chicago Crime.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 1. The Times' special from Wichita, Kan., says: One of the blackest crimes in Kansas was committed here last night and the arrest of the criminals effected.
March 10 last the vaults of the register of deeds of Harvey County were broken into and the entire records of title to property of the county but torn.
Though special detectives have been working on the case over since nothing developed, and it was recently given over to the chief of police of Wichita. Last night George H. Shirley of this city and O. Wash Holers of Newton were arrested on overtone statement to convict them, it is alleged. It is assumed that these men had not only planned the person, but part of a man for $600. The motive for the crime of which they are accused is said to be this: They had a mortgage on the only set of abstract books in Harvey County. Soon after the burning of the records they foreclosed the mortgage and took the books.
The citizens of Harvey County were without records while the records were not there to show who owned either property or notes, and every man or woman who wanted to convey a piece of property was compelled to pay $10 for every transfer to Shirley and Rogers. As there are often times twenty transfers in one contract, the cost would sometimes reach as much as $200.
This extraordinary extortion raised so much contempt that the officers of the county and county commissioners offered a bonus for the books of Shirley and Rogers. The latter finally offered the books for $20,000, which the commissioners were boxed in accepting, though the arrest occurred.
The arraignment of these men is in intense and the men will be closely guarded to avoid the vengeance of the people of Harvey County.
"Arraigned for Assault",
Charles Oldenburgh was arrested last evening on the charge of assault with intent to commit great bodily injury. The complaining witness is Nels P. Mattson, who says the prisoner hit him with a club or some blunt instrument. He has a badly cut and bruised head. Oldenburgh is a bartender at the Grand Central Hotel and says that he was walking out on South Thirteenth Street Monday night and when he was passing under the Union Pacific viaduct he was assaulted by two men, one of whom hit him with a blacksnake whip. He says that he wrenched the whip from his assailant and used it with so much vigor that the complaining witness had his bond cut open.
He put all his assailants to flight and they sought revenge in having him arrested. Oldenburgh says that he thought the men were robbers and when they assaulted him he defended himself the best he could. This part of Thirteenth Street is a very good place for "holdups" and people dread to pass under there at a late hour. Oldenburgh's friends furnished bonds for his appearance as soon as he was arrested.
"Go on, Police Department",
Last night the police station looked like an army barracks. The men who have been on duty in the daytime during the last month were assigned to night duty and the night men given day shifts. During the past month the police force in general has made a splendid record. The night detail has been especially fortunate in catching criminals. They arrested the two troublesome train robbers, nine men for malicious assault, four for criminal assault, three murderers, and many thieves.
The detective force has been unusually vigilant and Captains Morris, Corbett, sergeants Ormsby, Snoop, Wheeler, and Sigler have given Chief Seavy able assistance. The last month has been a "red letter" period in police circles.
"Waite to Prop.",
Johanna Fitzgerald has filed a petition asking for absolute divorce from Robert Fitzgerald, to whom she was married March 31, 1830, and also asks for the custody of their two small boys, whose ages range from 2 to 11 years. Johanna sets forth in her petition that Robert is a habitual drunkard and does not provide for his little brood.

A new arrangement, the tall, broad, and looks bountiful dinner at the restaurant, and then with a check, billing for 75 cents made his way to the cashier's desk, says Harriet (Driver, prepared down a battered aluminum dollar, and looked suddenly that over.
The cashier picked up the dollar and examined it suspiciously. It had a dent on one side, which looked as though it had been plowed, as though it had been plowed, At that moment, the customer spoke; "It is very painful for me to part with that dollar. It saved my life once, however, and must do so again," At the beggar's plea, he carried it in his vest pocket, and the dent by you saw the rights made by a bullet, which others would have killed me. I have kept it since as a memorial, and it well nigh broke my heart to let it go; but I must have nothing else."
The cashier was plainly interested.
"In what year was the slogan of Vicksburg?" he asked.
"Sixty-three," bald the sailor man, promptly.
"And this dollar," said the florist, "is dated 1877, and in counterfoil." The sailor man looked annoyed. "Of course it is," he replied. "How could I have an 1877 dollar in '93 if it wasn't counterfoil?"
And the cashier was so dumbfounded that he passed out a quarter in change, and allowed the man to escape.
The latest boy preacher, Earland Boy Gregory, comes appropriately from Early county, Georgia.

Donaldson's Columbia, and Mr. J. Jameson's Accuna. The Navaho was the first to cross the line, followed by the Santa, Columbia, and Accuna in the order named. The race was close and exciting throughout. The Navaho won, Santa second. The others did not finish.

Teams schedule just to hand contains the results of the competitions for the tennis championships which were ended at Wimbledon, near London, a couple of weeks ago. Dr. J. P. Barnes won the singles, and he and F. O. Stoker the doubles thus giving both the prizes to Ireland.
Barnes has been quite in the front rank for several years and but for an injury to his finger would have won the singles championship in 1885. O'Donnell, too, is of a more modern and improved type. All over England, he is the most popular tournament player of the day, his easy style and unaffected ways winning him the esteem of spectators, and his gentlemanly demeanor and sportsmanlike generosity placing him always on good terms with other players.
As showing how the Irishmen have come to the front of transatlantic tennis, it may be mentioned that in the final of the all-comers competition at Wimbledon, Mr. Barnes.
whose club is the Downs of Dublin, most
H. S. Maloney of Trinity College, Dublin, and
that this was the fourth time these four had
met this season. Maloney is quite one of the
young and coming players, though he is now
very near the top. He has never yet
beaten Parnell, though he has come exceeding
near it more than once. The principal
matches this season have ended as follows,
each time Parnell's score leading first: At
Manchester, 46, 13, 7-5, 0-3 at; Leopold,
11-0, 0-2, 0-8, 8-0; at Queen's Club, London,
9-7, 1-0, 0-8, 0-8; at Wimbledon, in the championships, 1-7, 0-1, 0-8.
Wilfrid Baddeley, last year's champion,
had no stand against Parnell at the outset,
but at the end of the first set went all to pieces,
Parnell winning 6-0, 1-6, 8-0. Since he won
the premier honors last July, Baddeley has
perceptibly fallen off and was not at all expected to retain the title. He and his twin
brother have failed to regain the doubles
championship, though at this their is still
one of the nicest combinations of the day.
The ladies' singles was won by Miss Dodd,
who defeated Mrs. Hillyard, the challenger

SCHEME OF STOCKMEN FAILS
They Must Keep Their Cattle Out of the Reservation In the Future
INDIAN POLICE PATROL WHITE RIVER
Stock Will Be Turned Back and Troops Will Be Arrived to
Prevent Foreign the Cattle In Their
Reserving Their Heritage
Cheyenne, S.I., Aug. 1. [Special to The Desk.] The authorities at Rosebud agency
have sent a detail of Indian police to the northern border of the reservation to
patrol the country along White River and protect the cattle belonging to white stockmen
straying to the Indian lands. The police, who are mounted, will carefully watch the
southern border, keeping a constant lookout
and turning back any cattle that may attempt to get across the river to the reservation
Hereafter it has been the practice of
some of the stockmen to give portions of their herds
Into the charge of Indians to be held on the Indian lands, but the government has recently
determined to put a stop to this practice. Accordingly, all cattle found on the
reservation and which belong to the stockmen having ranges along the border, will be
either confiscated or ordered to be taken to the other side of the stream, on the
reservation.
This determination on the part of the government will test disastrously to the
schemes of some of the cattlemen. During former years some of these men have given
large herds of their cattle into the charge of Indians, who would hold them on the
reservation, giving it out that the cattle belonged to them. The government is doing
everything possible to encourage the Indians in farming and stockraising, and the
agency authorities are authorized to buy from the Indians all surplus cattle, paying
the highest price for them. Thus an Indian who has been given charge of a large
herd of cattle belonging to some of the stockmen near the reservation would be
enabled to turn in large numbers of cattle at frequent intervals. Upon reaching an
agreement to pay for them, the Indian would at once turn the proceeds of the sale
over to the white stockman to whom the cattle really belonged, retaining a certain
percentage as payment for his own trouble in looking for the cattle up to the time of
selling them to the government.
Indian Agent Brown, who has just retired
from the management of Pine Ridge agency,
deserves the credit for unveiling this
sham scheme, and it was owing to his efforts
that the practice has now been stopped. By
his orders, all the cattle which were in the
charge of Indians on the Pine Ridge
reservation, but which belonged to white
stockmen, have during the past few months,
been driven off the Indian lands. This
unwittingly aroused the ire of the cattlemen,
but they must make the most of it. Hereafter,
the ranges on the reservations will be kept
severely for the herding of cattle belonging
to the Indians.
I'm delighted to provide the corrected text for the article titled "From the Plant to Protect the Golden Globe Mining Company," which was published in The Bit on August 1, 1876. This piece not only covers the legal and business affairs of the mining company but also touches upon the personal narratives of its key figures, including J.H. Damon and Swift Brass of Wilmington. The article mentions that the plant, being the largest of its kind in the world, has declined in value from $110.00 to $100.00 per share. It also notes that George Allison, a Chicago millionaire, is interested in the company.
The second part of the article focuses on the upcoming meeting of the Knights of Labor at their hall on North 23rd Avenue, where speakers from the American Malleable Iron League will discuss the free coinage of silver. The article further reports that Hardy has taken out a permit to erect a $1,000 dwelling at 527 North 20th Avenue, and that 10 molders from the Union Pacific shops were laid off for an indefinite period last night.
The Veteran Fire Engine Association of Omaha will hold a regular meeting this evening at 8 o'clock, with G.W. Shoptaid and William and George Lines appearing as witnesses to the shooting of Alford Patterson by John Goldsmith on July 1. They will appear on behalf of the state. Additionally, Henry Scales, W.A. Ledinburg, and Bill Irving were arrested last night as suspects in the wholesale robbery of the 16th Street tailor shop, and the police have recovered a significant amount of stolen property.
The article concludes with a personal testimonial from a reader suffering from chronic digestive issues, who finds relief after trying "Hood's Pills for Complaints," recommended by his physician. The opening of the theater season is mentioned, with "The Wolves of New York" being highlighted as a noteworthy production.
This corrected version aims to present the text as close to the original as possible, adhering to the context and intent of the original author while addressing the errors and inconsistencies that could have led to confusion or misinterpretation. | 9 |

Park Commissioner L. A. Casper is busy
Just at present superintending n lot of Im
provements that are being made in the west
basin of Fniruiount park. That part of the
valley situated just south of the lake , has
boon uneven nml ragged , the only redeeming
feature being the beautiful sod that covered
the ground everywhere. A ( ill ranging from
six inches to four feet Is being made in this
valley , and the rough ground will ) isO
smoothed up and rendered much more
comely. The sod Is to bo preserved , how-
ovor. It is to bo scalped off and when the
lining Is done the sod will bo put back 10hi
place.
When the filling has boon completed it is
the intcntlon'of the commissioners to isc
adannzo the carriage drives in this portion
of the park. The bills
rising on all sides
cause the roads to wash badly after every
hard storm , and the macadamizing is to bo
done as much to save the road us to make It
better for driving purposes. About 2,800
feet of road will bo thus improved.
For some time past It has been talked that
an entrance to the park was needed from the
west. At present the only entrances are
those from Madison strt'ut and from the
south. It is urged that the park would
become even more popular titan it now is as
a breathing place if the city were given
some more convenient way of getting }
in. The commissioners are llguring
on a plan for putting in a road
from the west , and It it is successful the
change will in all probability be 1 made before
the opening of the ) next Kosslo . The plan is
to start the road from near the head of
Fifth avenue , running In a circuitous way
past thu property of General G. II. Dodge ,
on Third street , and llnally entering the
park on the western most Hugo.

A quiet but distinguished procession
womlcd its way across the Union Pacilic
bridge from Omaha at a late hour Monday
night. The principal personages were Bar
ney McUynn and \\illlatns , the two murder-
ers who have recently become famous. It
was McGynn who it was feared would
bo lynched in Omaha Monday night ,
but the Omaha authorities , by a
clover ruse got him out. l-luiiing the crowd ,
and brought him to this sidu of tjio river ,
depositing him finally with his companion in
the ' Pottawiittaiuio county jail. A strong
cll'ort was made to keep the fact of Mis

Sheriff Ilazcn was asked about it ho at first
denied thai bo was in his custody. Finally ,
however , ho admitted that both men were
hero and will probably bo kept hero until
the excitement In Omaha is over.

I.CAVO of Aluciicc.
Another of Mayor Bonds' famous yoto
messages : received attention nt the hands of
the city council last evening. Contrary to
usual custom , this veto was sustained , al
though ( a great effort was made to defeat its
purpose. The veto was as follows :
To TUB tloNOKAIIt.n THE ClTT COl'XCIl , OP
Till CITV or OMAHA Gentlemen : 1 re
turn herewith , without mv approval ,
resolution No. M of July 20 , authorizing the
comptroller ; to Include In tbo next appropria
tion ordinance an Item for W0,000 In favor of
John R Coots on account of construction of
the city hall.
sof have vetoed this resolution for the rea
son that I do not bclltn'e , in view of all the
circumstances , that the payment of $ . ' 0,000
would leave enough of a margin In the ac
count between Contractor Coots and the
city.Already , tha city has been miulo a
party in a suit brought against Mr. Coots for
suit has been dismissed , but 1 have been no-
titled that Certain mechanics employed by a
sub-contractor arc about to make the cttv n
party to another suit , and more cases of this
Itliul nro likely to develop before the matter
Is llnally cleared up.
In intuition to this , the work of Mr. Coots
in the construction of the city hall has not
i'ct been finally accepted , and there nro
many glaring defects In the construction of
the building which are unquestionably
chargeable to the contractor , anil a great
many more about which tbero is a question
as to whether they are properly chargeable
to the contractor or to the architect.
Hegardlng the defects for which the con
tractor is undoubtedly responsible , I will
say that there is something decidedly rotten
somewhere when , In a building cos tint ; a
round half million ofulollars , the wind whis
tles [ throuch tbo cracks around the windows
in nearly ; every room on the upper lloors. This
was the case to such an extent during many
days lust winter that it was impossible , with
full steam pressure , to raise the temperature
of these rooms above ilfty-threo iiegrccs ,
making seine of the rooms uninhabitable
even when overcoats were worn. This state
of affairs existed in tlio oftlces of the city
engineer , attorney , mayor , Hoard of Fire
ai t Police and Hoard of Health.
In the summer tlmo the monotony Is varied
uv mill pouring into the rooms around , over
and through the closed windows , soaking
the carpets and drenching the palatial
Kotcbam furniture.
Tlio Mooring over almost tbo entire build
ing is not of good quality. That on the fifth
iloor is sappy and of the poorest grade. In
many of tho-rooms the lloor is "springy , "
caused by thostripsdn which it Is laid being
too far apart and by tbo flooring being laid
so as to match between the strips instead of
over them. *
Tbero are many doors in the building tbo
panels of wlnrh are cracked and split , and
In some of this olHces tbo wood work is
warped and cricked , , particularly in tbo
mayor's olllcc.
It is freely charged by experts that the
I ako Superior stndslono used in the con
struction of tno buililmg is of No. " quality
instead of No. 1 , as-called for by tbo con
tract.
There arc many other defects" to which I
might call your attention , but I think 1 have
presented ) cnougn to sustain my position that
a substantial balance should bo held back
until all these matters are cleared up anc
the building Hnally/.accopted. Hespcctfully
submitted , 'Get.P. ' BEMIS , Mayor.
Air. $ tf > l Wit * Surprised.
Mr. Steel said ho was somewhat surprised
nt the statements. AIIo said that the com
mittee on public propcrty and buildings hat
devoted a day to inspecting tbo building anc
had called upon tlio mayor , but his honor hni
failed at that time to point out any defects.
Mr. Prince said a special committee hat
heretofore Investigated the alleged defect :
and the committee bad found them im
aginary.
Mr. Munro thought the mayor should bo
sustained and a competent , committee o
practical builders appointed to examiue the
buildimr.
Mr. Wheeler thought a suftlciont ainounl
would bo retained in
case this estimate was
allowed. Mr. Edwards , who hau voted to
sustain the mayor , changed bis voto.
Tlio veto was sustained by a vote of 8 to 7
Jacob II. Hauck's cluiin for personal in
Juries sustained was referred to the city at
torney.
Mayor Bemls named as appraisers for tin
southeast park George J. Paul , T. U. Brunei
and John F1. Flack.
The following contracts wcro approved
J. B. Huso , sewer , gas and water conncc
tlons on North Nineteenth street ; Ilugl
Murphy , rcpavhiR Fifteenth street from i
Howard to Jackson.
Police Judge Bcrka was given a leave of
absence for twenty-two days.
The petition of property owners for an
electric light at Twenty-sixth street and
Capitol avenue was granted.
The Sun Vapor Light company asked for
data as to gasoline lamps that were found
not to furnish the standard sixtccn-cumllo
power lights nnd not burning during Juno ,
deductions for the same having been made
by the committee on gas nnd electric lights.
Referred to the committee.
Mr. Kpecht introduced a resolution to the
effect that in accordance with recommenda
tions of tbo Hoard of Public Works all bids
upon asphalt bo rejected , and the board di [ |
rected to readvertlso.
Mr. Edwards and Mr. Munro inquired as
to the status of the caso. The l\ttorurped : J
that if possible the bids should bo accepted
and the paving permitted to proceed. In case
tbo people wcro determined to have asphalt
and wcro willing to pay $ -1 per yard for Itit
that was their lookout.
City Engineer Uosowator explained the
proceedings. Ho was not prepared to give a
legal opinion as to whether tbo bids should
bo rejected or accepted. Many questions
could uo raised that might Invalidate the
collections of special taxes , tn case tlio bids
were accepted , after the lapse ot , so long a
time since they were received. 'J y re&olu-
tlon 'vua adopted.
A resolution w.is adopted requustinf : the
city engineer to report at tbo next meeting
tbo result of bis examination of the Six
teenth street viaduct and that the other
engineers bo requested to do tbo same.
An item of Sl.OJO In favor of Architect
nelndorff was oiik-rtid placed in tbo ro
priation ordlnanco-to bo deducted from ll o

Mr. Munro oiforcjl resolution empower
ing City Klcctrlcijin CowgllMo employ an
assistant for thirty days at a salary of lot
to cxecol $05 , to enable the electrician to
make tests of tho1nrc lights. Mr. Munro
urged Hi ) adoption. Ho said the electrician
could not attend to his ofllco duties and lo -
vote his tlmo at nights to testing the ts .
Ho believed tbo question us to whether belle
lights furnished are , equal to tbucandlo
power required should bo settled.
MrVheolcr attack'dd the electrician and
said bo knew nothing of electricity. Ho
wanted to employ ini 'rttpurt and Bald ho be
lieved ono could bo secured from tbo state
university.
Mr. Els.isscr favcuxni ibo resolution. Ho
consldepd Mr. Cow..fiU | uorfoctly competent
'
and ho believed tlic'lests mailo are accurate ,
Mr. Jiicobscn thought tbo electrician
should be treated fairly , and If ho requires
assistance the council should provide him
thu same.

Mr. Ed wards rchasbcd the story of experts
lie hud mot at Lincoln. The experts ho
are connected with the State ity
in-offered their services and volunteered to
bring with them their photometer and make
the tests of uro lights. Ho insisted on hav
ing "a professor of seine kind" to make tbo
tests , nnd did not propose to expend 115 for
oilier than an experienced man.
Mr. Steel wanted -an expert , no mutter
what it costs. Ho reiterated the story of
professors and experts that a photometric
test cannot bo made on thu street.
Mr. Melvcnrio pronounced tbo photometer
a failure. Ho said iho only fair test Is by a
measurement of the voltage ,
Mr. Munro said Omaha was very fortunate
in having an entlro city council that was
electricians and hcrfurno is extending by
pasun thereof , llo wgcA that those who
Consider thiS elcotrlclnn Incompetent take
tens to impeach him and employ exprrts to

rlc light * .
Mr. Prince said that the lights furnished
are plvlng as good satisfaction as when first
nit In.
.
Mr. Elsnsscr said tbo case Is parallel with
hat of the gas company and when Us
'irhts ' were found ihort In c.imllo power the
bills were cut down. The lest w.is mmlo by
\ photometer , and the fact that the lights
vcro short In candle power was fully demon-
trateil to the council ,
Mr. limner made a speech. Ho urcrd the

Fred Mittach's residence over his saloon near the corner of Broadway and Bryant Street was entered by thieves yesterday afternoon. They got in through the front door, which opens into a public hall, and as the family happened to be away they had everything to themselves. A lady's gold watch, two gold necklaces, and a fine ring set with three diamonds were stolen. There is no clue.
The lawsuit, in which the motor company is the defendant, was on trial again in the superior court. A great deal of the evidence was in documentary form. George V. Wright, the secretary of the company, was the only witness, and he occupied the stand the greater part of the day, during which time he furnished an interesting exhibition of what a well-cultivated forgetfulness can do. He was questioned about a number of things in connection with the transfer of the motor company's property from the Iowa to the Nebraska corporation, but wherever there was any point of especial interest he had entirely forgotten the circumstances. When the day was over it was decided to resume the trial tomorrow.

NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Jim Shields, whose friends know and love him by the endearing term of "Silly," is occupying a cold cell in the county jail, and there he is likely to remain until the affectionate fruit rustle up a bond of $100 for him to jump and leave his bondsman in the lurch. He was tried several days before on the charge of being a vagrant under the state law, and in his possession was found a complete shell fishing outfit. Slippery Jim had a bad reputation in the city with every clan that knew him, with the exception of the gambling and cockfighting element, with whom he was quite the proper thing.
When appearing before Justice Vicu, Shields made claim that he had been engaged in the mercantile business with a gentleman who followed Shields around over the country did not go down with the court. When the hearing was over, Justice Vicu decreed that Shields must put up a bond of $100 for good behavior for one year from date, or in default of the bond, must go to the county jail for the same length of time. The defendant's bosom friends immediately went out on a hunt for a bondsman, coming back during the afternoon with the request that the bond be reduced to $75. The Justice held to his first order, however, saying that Shields would jump the bond as soon as he got out of jail anyway, and the county might as well have $150 as half that amount.

FURNISHING PARISH IMPROVEMENTS.
Current River Bridge Are to be Renamed
Smith Memorial Bridge
Park Commissioner L. A. Casper is busy right now superintending a lot of improvements that are being made in the west basin of Fairmount park. That part of the valley situated just south of the lake, has been uneven and ragged, the only redeeming feature being the beautiful sod that covered the ground everywhere. A filling ranging from six inches to four feet is being made in this valley, and the rough ground will be smoothed up and rendered much more comely. The sod is to be preserved, however. It is to be scalped off and when the filling is done the sod will be put back in place.
When the filling has been completed it is the intention of the commissioners to resurface the carriage drives in this portion of the park. The bills rising on all sides cause the roads to wash badly after every hard storm, and the macadamizing is to be done as much to save the road as to make it better for driving purposes. About 2,800 feet of road will be thus improved.
For some time past it has been talked that an entrance to the park was needed from the west. At present the only entrances are those from Madison street and from the south. It is urged that the park would become even more popular than it now is as a breathing place if the city were given some more convenient way of getting in. The commissioners are figuring on a plan for putting in a road from the west, and if it is successful the change will in all probability be made before the opening of the next session. The plan is to start the road from near the head of Fifth avenue, running in a circuitous way past the property of General G. H. Dodge, on Third street, and finally entering the park on the westernmost side.

The democrats of the city will hold caucuses tomorrow evening in all of the precincts of the city for the purpose of selecting tickets to be voted on at the primaries Saturday evening. There has been some dissatisfaction among the faithful at almost every election, by reason of the action of certain parties in getting together, making out a schedule of delegates, and then railroading their ticket through the primaries. Three tickets will be selected tomorrow evening, composed of candidates who receive the three highest votes. The list that receives the most votes Saturday evening will go to the county convention.

Charles Coff jumped up and seized the gun which went off, the bullet striking Coff near the groin. Coff wore a truss, which received the bullet and was smashed to pieces. The truss was the only thing saved his life.
No effort was made to capture the following, who escaped through the door. A description was furnished the police, who have failed to get any trace of him. He is said to have just been released from the Omaha jail.

REGINA HECK.
The notorious murderers Barney McGowan and William Williams, the two murderers who have recently become famous, kindled the excitement in Omaha County Jail.
A quiet but distinguished procession wound its way across the Union Pacific bridge from Omaha at a late hour Monday night. The principal personages were Barney McGowan and Williams, the two murderers who have recently become famous. It was McGowan who it was feared would be lynched in Omaha Monday night, but the Omaha authorities, by a clever ruse, got him out of the crowd, and brought him to this side of the river, depositing him finally with his companion in the Pottawattamie county jail. A strong effort was made to keep the fact of his being here secret and last evening when Sheriff Hazen was asked about it, he at first denied that he was in his custody. Finally, however, he admitted that both men were here and will probably be kept here until the excitement in Omaha is over.
A Stupendous Sale.
The Hoston Store has made arrangements today for another characteristic sale that will attract a great deal of attention for its novelty if there were no more substantial attractions. They have arranged a hot weather blanket sale. There will be blankets, and blankets, and blankets of all shades, styles and qualities. There will be ten cases of blankets displayed on the sidewalk in front of the store. The four large show windows will be filled with woven fleeces, and there will be an avalanche of blankets in the front end of the store. Twenty cases of blankets designed especially for ladies, and gents' wrappers will be one side feature. The prices that will prevail will make those blankets a better investment than a Havings bank or a government bond.
The sale will be a novel one, and will attract a great multitude today. It is said that prices will be so low that a sensation will be created.

An Equinox Sale.
H. A. Roft, the freight agent of the Island Freight whose resignation was chronicled in yesterday's News, returned yesterday from Chicago, where he went to have a conference with the railway officials. In a measure, he succeeded in setting what he wanted, which was time in which to make a thorough investigation of the affairs in his district before judgment was passed upon him. Yesterday a telegram was received by the official who is making the investigation at the freight depot instructing him to proceed with his checking up of the books, but to postpone transferring the books into the hands of Mr. Benton, the new manager, until the actual state of affairs could be learned. Mr. Roft is much encouraged by the new turn affairs have taken, and is certain of his final vindication.
Domestic soap is the best.
INTERESTING REVELATIONS.
The Chicago & Alton Railroad has made a policy of retrenchment which was inaugurated yesterday by the abolition of the offices of assistant superintendent and division superintendents. It is announced that the train dispatching of the entire system will be concentrated at Bloomington, and that the dispatching offices at Goodhouse, Ill., and Slater, Mo., will be abandoned. Engines have been pulled off at Joliet and Springfleld, and one crew at Alton and the way freight crews were ordered to do yard work. Beginning today, all departments of the Bloomington shops will be put upon an eight-hour schedule. A large number of the men in the shops have been laid off indefinitely.
The Industrial Iron works of Bay City, Mich., one of the largest plants in the country, have closed. The company, it is said, cannot realize on good securities. Several hundred workmen are thrown out of employment.
Providence, R.I., Aug. 1. The Aurora Cotton mills closed last night, throwing 300 people out of employment. The length of closing is indefinite. The management of the company gives as a reason the continued stringency in the money market and their inclination to pile up manufactured products until they know what will be done to the tariff on muslin and other products.
CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Mayor Berals and City Editor Hand Produce Another Veto, Kills Bills for Construction
Action on the Violin Spectacled City Electric Company in Illinois and An Outlandish Police Incident
Leaving Alisha Lewis Encouraged.
Another of Mayor Bonds' famous veto messages received attention at the hands of the city council last evening. Contrary to usual custom, this veto was sustained, although a great effort was made to defeat its purpose. The veto was as follows:
To THE BOARD OF CONTROL OF THE CITY OF OMAHA Gentlemen: I return herewith, without my approval, resolution No. M of July 20, authorizing the comptroller to include in the next appropriation ordinance an item for $100,000 in favor of John R. Coots on account of construction of the city hall.
The reason I have vetoed this resolution is because I do not believe, in view of all the circumstances, that the payment of $100,000 would leave enough of a margin in the account between Contractor Coots and the city. Already, the city has been made a party in a suit brought against Mr. Coots for which suit has been dismissed, but I have been notified that certain mechanics employed by a subcontractor are about to make the city a party to another suit, and more cases of this kind are likely to develop before the matter is finally cleared up.
In addition to this, the work of Mr. Coots in the construction of the city hall has not yet been finally accepted, and there are many glaring defects in the construction of the building which are unquestionably chargeable to the contractor, and a great many more about which there is a question as to whether they are properly chargeable to the contractor or to the architect.
Hegarding the defects for which the contractor is undoubtedly responsible, I will say that there is something decidedly rotten somewhere when, in a building costing a round half million dollars, the wind whistles through the cracks around the windows in nearly every room on the upper floors. This was the case to such an extent during many days last winter that it was impossible, with full steam pressure, to raise the temperature of these rooms above fifty-three degrees, making some of the rooms uninhabitable even when overcoats were worn. This state of affairs existed in the offices of the city engineer, attorney, mayor, Board of Fire and Police and Board of Health.
In the summer time the monotony is varied by mill pouring into the rooms around, over and through the closed windows, soaking the carpets and drenching the palatial furniture.
The Mooring over almost the entire building is not of good quality. That on the fifth floor is sappy and of the poorest grade. In many of the rooms, the floor is "springy," caused by the strips on which it is laid being too far apart and by the flooring being laid so as to match between the strips instead of over them.
There are many doors in the building the panels of which are cracked and split, and in some of these offices the woodwork is warped and crooked, particularly in the mayor's office.
It is freely charged by experts that the lumber Superior standpoint used in the construction of the building is of No. 2 quality instead of No. 1, as called for by the contract.
There are many other defects to which I might call your attention, but I think I have presented enough to sustain my position that a substantial balance should be held back until all these matters are cleared up and the building finally accepted. Respectfully submitted, G. P. Bemis, Mayor.
Mr. Steel said he was somewhat surprised at the statements. Also said that the committee on public property and buildings had devoted a day to inspecting the building and had called upon the mayor, but his honor had failed at that time to point out any defects.
Mr. Prince said a special committee had heretofore investigated the alleged defects and the committee had found them imaginary.
Mr. Munro thought the mayor should be sustained and a competent, committee of practical builders appointed to examine the building.
Mr. Wheeler thought a sufficient amount would be retained in case this estimate was allowed. Mr. Edwards, who had voted to sustain the mayor, changed his vote.
The veto was sustained by a vote of 8 to 7. Jacob H. Hauck's claim for personal injuries sustained was referred to the city attorney.
Mayor Bemis named as appraisers for the southeast park George J. Paul, T. U. Bruning and John F. Flack.
The following contracts were approved: J. B. Huso, sewer, gas and water connections on North Nineteenth Street; Hugh Murphy, repairing Fifteenth Street from Howard to Jackson.
Police Judge Berk was given a leave of absence for twenty-two days.
The petition of property owners for an electric light at Twenty-sixth Street and Capitol Avenue was granted.
The Sun Vapor Light company asked for data as to gasoline lamps that were found not to furnish the standard sixteen-candle power lights and not burning during June, deductions for the same having been made by the committee on gas and electric lights. Referred to the committee.
Mr. Specht introduced a resolution to the effect that in accordance with recommendations of the Board of Public Works all bids upon asphalt be rejected, and the board directed to readvertise.
Mr. Edwards and Mr. Munro inquired as to the status of the case. The attorney stated that if possible the bids should be accepted and the paving permitted to proceed. In case the people were determined to have asphalt and were willing to pay $1 per yard for it, that was their lookout.
City Engineer Rosenthal explained the proceedings. He was not prepared to give a legal opinion as to whether the bids should be rejected or accepted. Many questions could be raised that might invalidate the collections of special taxes, in case the bids were accepted, after the lapse of so long a time since they were received. The resolution was adopted.
A resolution was adopted requesting the city engineer to report at the next meeting the result of his examination of the Sixteenth Street viaduct and that the other engineers be requested to do the same.
An item of $850 in favor of Architect Schneider was placed in the appropriation ordinance to be deducted from the sum claimed by the architect.
Mr. Jacobson introduced the resolution.
Mr. Munro offered the resolution empowering City Electrician Cowgill to employ an assistant for thirty days at a salary of $50 to execute his office duties and to vote his time at nights to testing the are lights. Mr. Munro urged its adoption. He said the electrician could not attend to his office duties and to vote his time at nights to testing the lights. He believed the question as to whether the arc lights furnished are equal to standard oil power required should be settled.
Mr. Wheeler attacked the electrician and said he knew nothing of electricity. He wanted to employ an expert and said he believed one could be secured from the state university.
Mr. Elsasser favored the resolution. He considered Mr. Cowgill perfectly competent and he believed the tests made are accurate.
Mr. Jacobson thought the electrician should be treated fairly, and if he requires assistance, the council should provide him the same.
Witnesses testified of Tekamah.
Mr. Edwards recounted the story of experts he had met at Lincoln. The experts are connected with the State and offered their services and volunteered to bring with them their photometer and make the tests of the arc lights. He insisted on having "a professor of some kind" to make the tests, and did not propose to expend $150 for other than an experienced man.
Mr. Steel wanted an expert, no matter what it costs. He reiterated the story of professors and experts that a photometric test cannot be made on the street.
Mr. Melvin said the photometer is a failure. He said the only fair test is by a measurement of the voltage.
Mr. Munro said Omaha was very fortunate in having an entire city council that was electricians and therefore is extending by passing thereof. He waged that those who consider this electricity incompetent take steps to impeach him and employ experts to investigate the electrician and not the electric light.
Mr. Prince said that the lights furnished are providing as good satisfaction as when first installed.
Mr. Elsasser said the case is parallel with that of the gas company and when its lights were found short in candle power the bills were cut down. The test was made by a photometer, and the fact that the lights were short in candle power was fully demonstrated to the council.
Mr. Lumer made a speech. He urged the adoption of the resolution.
The resolution did not pass. The vote stood: Ayes, Hack, Brunker, Elsasser, Jacobson, McAndrews, Munger, Saunders; Nays, Edwards, Melvin, Parvey, Prince, Spoot, Steel, Thomas, Wheeler, Recht.
A resolution by Wheeler was adopted ordering that the Howell judgment against the city of $856 and interest, now owned by J. T. Chaffee, be incorporated in the appropriation ordinance. Mr. Elsasser and Mr. Munro opposed the resolution on the ground that the amount should be assessed against the property abutting on the street, and not paid by the entire city.
The outcome on Contracts Allowed.
The Darrow Asphalt Paving company was allowed the 15 percent reserve on contracts upon which the guarantees of five years have expired. The guarantees expired in 1893, 1894, and 1895. The total amount was $85,601. The company was also permitted to withdraw the 15 percent reserve on contracts upon which the five-year guarantee has not expired when they have pledged bonds of the city in the hands of the comptroller.
An award of appraisers made in 1889, for the extending of Twenty-sixth street from the south line of Hickory street to the north line of tax lot no. 35, section 5-16, was taken from the table and approved.
Two reports from the committee on public property and buildings were received upon the request of the Central Labor union for the use of the large room on the 11th floor of the city hall. Mr. Jacobson and Mr. Steele submitted the majority report recommending that the union be granted the use of the room on Tuesday evenings for eleven months, providing that the occupancy of the same does not interfere with Miss Clary, who has been granted the use of the room for the School of Music for the remainder of each week for the same period. Mr. Wheeler submitted a minority report. He did not favor permitting any organization or society occupying any room in the hall. After considerable discussion, the majority report was adopted, Miss Clary was an attentive listener to the proceedings.
The vote taken one week ago on the adoption of a resolution setting aside $2,000 for the use of the street commissioner was considered. Upon the strength of the statement that there is already $1,000 in that fund, the resolution was tabled.
The committee on sewers submitted its report on the new plumbing ordinance, recommending its passage. The report was sent back to the committee with instructions to strike out the provision for an assistant plumbing inspector.
Ordinances were introduced as follows: Opening boulevard from Ames avenue northward 100 feet wide and providing for the appointment of appraisers; declaring necessity of grading Douglas street from Forty-second to Forty-fourth street; opening alley through block 21, in Knuston Ruth's addition; opening alley between Tenth and Eleventh and from Dorcas street north thereof; changing grade of Cameron street from Twenty-fourth street west to Florence avenue; opening Lake street from Thirtieth to Military avenue.
The following ordinances were passed: Ordering the American Water Works company to take up and relocate water hydrants; ordering the issue of $5,000 of each sewer and paving bonds, to bear 5% interest; ordering paving from Half Howard, from Twenty-sixth to Twenty-eighth street with asphalt; paving Jackson, from Fifteenth to Sixteenth street, with Colorado sandstone; paving Twenty-first, from Hurt to Cord street, with Colorado sandstone; paving Cuming, from Twenty-fifth avenue to Thirtieth street, with Colorado sandstone; paving Nineteenth, from Farnam to Douglas street, with asphalt; repairing Sixteenth, from Howard to Farnam, with asphalt; paving Half Howard, from Twenty-fifth avenue to Twenty-sixth street, with vitrified brick; repairing Cuming, from Thirtieth to Thirty-second street, with asphalt; creating sewer district 190; paving Dodge, from Twenty-sixth street to Twenty-seventh avenue, with asphalt.
AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA.
Dominion Delivery of Crunk Holder Other
Concerns in the Magic City.
Frank Holder, a colored man who is employed as fireman at Swift's, asked the assistance of Captain Austin Monday night to ascertain the facts in regard to Holder's suspicions as to his wife's virtue.
The pair started out early in the evening and by 10 o'clock had located Mrs. Holder and the company of a man named L. Wordlow. The couple were having a regular picnic in a well-known resort where beer is served at the touch of the button and where the hours may be whiled away in their dissipation without interference from anyone. This was enough for Holder, he said, and he went away feeling angry at both his wife and Wordlow. He promised the captain that he would show up at the police station at 11 o'clock this morning and file a complaint of adultery against his wife and her companion, but he failed to appear and now the captain is wrathful and may cause some arrests on his own account.
Holder is a hard-working fellow and has had considerable trouble over his wife. Holder has a stepdaughter also who has kept him busy chasing admirers from the household in large numbers.
Arraignment in July.
Although only 155 names are recorded on the police court docket for the month of July, a great many more persons than that were kept at the station overnight. Since the influx of tourists from Colorado, an order has been in force not to book men who are simply given shelter for the night and breakfast in the morning. This would swell the number to 200 at least.
The causes for the different arrests were as follows: Prostitution, 20; disturbing the peace, 20; drunkenness, 10; drunk and disorderly, 5; vagrancy, 14; assault and battery, 13; exposing person, 2; resisting an officer, 4; petty larceny, 8; obtaining money under false pretenses, 1; suspicious characters, 15; violating city ordinance, 2; housebreaking, 1; adultery, 1; incorrigibility, 6; of the entire month.
The barbers of South Omaha have put forth another effort to organize a union among their workmen. A meeting was held in Pavilion's hall last night with a fair attendance, A number of the members of the cigar makers union were present to assist if possible in the organization.
The following is the temporary organization: J. L. Garrison, president; G. J. Peck, vice president; U. W. Davis, secretary.
The following committee was appointed on organization: Harry Hatfield, J. H. Shangburn, and James Kofler.
Another meeting will be held on the evening of August 7.
As soon as the union is thoroughly organized, an effort will be made to close all the shops on Sunday.
Another Steal
The Magic City Iron Works building was burglarized again Monday night. This time the thief only got two revolvers, which is about a dozen times within the last two months that this concern has been touched within the last two months. It seems evident that the thieves never leave only a few articles at a time.

A Voluntary Architect
Detroit News Press: The girl's heart had been rudely handled by a young man whose promises to pay were known among men to be of no more value than his promises to love were known among women, and she went to an Attorney to see about suing him for breach of promise.
"So," said the kindly old gentleman, "you want to sue Jack for breach of promise?" "Yes, sir, I do, and I mean to," she asserted with angry emphasis.
"What's the figure?" the elderly man asked. "Twenty-five thousand dollars," the young lady answered with a toss of her head.
The old man's eyebrows shot up. "Twenty-five thousand dollars!" he ejaculated. "Why, my dear young lady, there isn't a jury in this violent era that wouldn't laugh right out in the back at the very idea of one of Jack's promises being worth a thousandth part of it. You'd better bring in your broken heart and sue him for assault and battery or cruelty to animals or something like that."

/OHM'S HAILWAY K
There is nn old ndngn to the off cot that
oxporlcnco in the beat schoolmnitor , and
most nion have learned to tholr sorrow
that its truth IB not to bo questioned.
Man > nay learn by experience , but , if wo
nro to jtitlgo from tlio history of railway
legislation , a railway corporation never
learns anything , Defeated upon point
after point , It como9 forward again to
fight over the same old ground , and
Beonis perfectly willing to throw upon
its stockholders the costs of repeating
the often tried nnd unsuccessful oxporl-
ments. Everywhere in this country the
railroads have from the first assumed a
hostile attitude toward all legislation
enacted with a view to regulating the
conduct of tholr biHinoss. and every
where they have yielded only when
driven from their positions by the
courts.
The course of railway legislation in
almost any state in the union might ho
cited as evidence of the plghcadudness
of railway nlllclnls , hut no inoro instruc
tive'lesson could ho road at this time
tliiiu that furnished by the sketch of
railway legislation in Iowa published
yesterday in the columns of this paper.
The railroads operating in Iowa con
tributed to the wave of anti-monopoly
sentiment which carried through ' .ho
granger laws of the early 70's.
They were bold in assorting tholr abso
lute freedom from publlo control of
whatever kind and insisted that they
were private enterprises conducted for
private profit , with no duties to the
pcoplo other than they jchoso to
perform. Their rates were ad
justed to favor ono and dlscrim-
Inato against another and when
complaints were heard upon nil sides
they Insolently aald that their partiality
nlTected none .but themselves. They
fought every olTort to subject" them to
legislative -control and when llnally a
maximum freight rate law was passed in
1874 thoyjrofttsod to pay any attention
whatever to it and contldontly carried
tholr cases to the United States supreme
court.
Their confidence in this instance was
shortlived. They were rudely awakened
from the dream into which they had
boon lulled when they learned that that
tribunal had sustained the constitution
ality of those measured. The right of
the states to regulate railway rates was
distinctly and plainly ulllrmod. Beaten
on this point , they yielded a sullen obedience
dionco to the law , construing it whcrovor
possible to the injury of the shipper.
No olTort was omitted to make the
law obnoxious to the people and
at last these efforts proved successful
in securing the repeal of the statute.
Three railway commissioners remained ,
but these were so shorn of their power
that the railways regarded them as in
offensive and impotent.
For the next few years dabbling in
polities' seemed to have supplanted the
transportation of passengers and freight
as the purpose for which the companies
were incorporated , and by the lavish
distribution of railway favors they man
aged to stave olT all further legislation.
By 1838 the anti-monopoly forces found
themselves once moro in power , and
I despite the desperate resistance of the
I corporation lobby they enacted a String
ent law , placing in the hands of elective
commissioners the power to establish
reasonable maximum rates subject to
appeal to the regularly established judi
ciary of the stato.
Again the railways showed their dis
position to resist the law. Again they
tried to make the enforcement of its
provisions as obnoxious as possible to
the people. Special tarilTs and terminal
rates were withdrawn and distance
charges substituted conforming to the
letter of the law , but so excessive as to
bo extortionate. When the commission
ers omploy.od their power to construct
and promulgate a tariff of maximum
rates , the railways displayed their pro-
deliction for injunction proceedings by
securing a temporary restraining order
to prevent the board from putting the
now schedule into force. Here , too ,
thuy displayed a ouniiingncss in waiting
until only a few days before the now
rates were to become olToctivo before
bringing in the petition , with the express -
press design that the proceedings might
necessarily delay their enforcement. At
length , cornered in their own game of
litigation , with the temporary injunction
withdrawn by the court , they recognized
the futility of further opposition and
submitted unconditionally to the man
dates of the law. For four years they
have been operating under the reduced
rates fixed by the Iowa commissioners
and the threatened bankruptcy has not
' yet appeared. Not ono employe has boon
discharged solely on account of the maxi
mum rates , nor have the stockholders
discovered that their private property
has boon confiscated.
If the railways were inclined to listen
to the dictates of reason , hero is a les
son whoso moral might well bo taken to
heart. But corporations do not learn
by experience. The railways of Ne
braska , in part identical with these who
wont through the lire of Iowa legisla
tion , prefer to pay the penalty for each
now acquisition of knowledge. Tlio
same tactics will be pursued -Nebraska ,
with the same ultimate results.
COMMISSIONER GAUNKAU has led some
of the newspaper people of Chicago to
believe that the Nebraska building may
, have to bo closed in consequence of the
' action of Auditor Moore in demanding
that receipted vouchers shall accompany
the commissioner's drafts upon the
World's fair appropriation , Auditor
Moore Is now cheeking up the commis
sioner's July accounts , and if ho abides
by the recent decision of the supreme
court ho will draw warrantsonly for suoh
sums as are covered by vouchers. In
short , the commissioner , under the rul
ing of the court , cannot draw money in
advance covering the estimated expend
itures for a month or a quarter. While
this may handicap the commissioner in
some respects , and revolutionize his
methods of doing business , it wllj not
justify any attempt to close the Ne
braska exhibit. Mr. Garneau certainly
could not seriously ontortulii such an
idou , The power which created the
otllclul position occupied by him also
provided for the Btato exhibit at the
World's fair. No authority loss than
that of the legislature Is competent to
' \ >
close the exhibit. Bo It will bo peen
thnt the commissioner Is simply talking
for effect.
IVIBS/OKAT CLKVKIiANI ) OH TOP. I
As the time for the mooting of con
gress draws nearer It becomes more ap-
parent that the campaign which Mr.
Cleveland has been prosecuting in his
party ' for the repeal of the stiver pur
chase act has been far more successful
than was expected. The president secma
to have shown exceedingly good judgment -
mont In the conduct of the campaign ,
and it la by no means improbable that a
good share of the credit for this is duo
to that exceedingly shrewd politician ,
Colonel Lament , secretary of war , who
is j splendidly equipped for almost any
task requiring political acumen. About
the . first niovo the presi
dent made , after having induced Mr.
Carlisle to abandon the free silver cause , |
was to make an adherent of Mr. Crisp.
Tiio ex-speaker desired ro-olectton , and
it was not'dlfllcitlt to convince hfm that ,
the easiest if not the only way to secure |
it was to bo in harmony with the admin
istration. Crisp will again bo speaker ,
and , if his recent utterances are sin
cere , the administration will have no
inoro faithful friend nnd supporter in
either branch of congress than ho. Not
only docs ho favor the repeal of the sll-
* vor purchase clause of the Sherman net
but in order to insure that result
ho is prepared to have the L'ulos
of the house framed according to
the precedent sot by the last republican
congress. In both thoso. respects the
Georgia congressman is thoroughly and
completely n Cleveland man. Having
inado sure of Crisp the next most important - (
portant person to bo converted was Sen
ator Voorhoes , who , as chairman of the
senate committee on finance , could exert
a decided inlluunco. The Indiana sena
tor was a most pronounced nnd uncom
promising free silver advocate and very
generally regarded by the anti-free sil
ver men as a hopeless case. It cannot bo
over three months , if so long , since ho
declared that under no circumstances
would ho support a measure for the
unconditional repeal of the Shot-man law.
But unless Mr. Voorhcos has again
changed his mind within the last few
days lie is now an adherent of the ad
ministration and is willing that the pur
chase of silver by the government shall
bo stopped unconditionally.
There have been other conversions ,
but it is sufficient to mention the most
prominent and important. Of course
there are free silver democrats whom
the president has not been able to con
vert to his views and mil not bo. But
as the situation now appears lie does not
need them. If this shall prove to bo so ,
and the most trustworthy opinion pro-
diets it , Mr. Cleveland may fairly chum
to have achieved a signal victory , for the
odds were very largely against him when
ho started lit on the campaign. Being
on top there is reason to believe thafj
the president has made himself HO secure
in his position that he will have no
difficulty in retaining it. Nobody now
questions that the silver purchase clause
of the Sherman act will bo repealed in
the house and it is very generally con
ceded that a measure tor this purpose
can bo passed in the senate.
TUB LAI10R 3IAKKKT.
Not the least serious and deplorable
feature of the existing distrust and de
pression is the condition of the labor
market. Within the last few months
tons of thousands of workers have boon
thrown out of employment and every
day adds to the already vast army of
j idle labor. All over the eauntry in
dustrial enterprise is being restricted.
Mills and' factories are suspending
operations altogether or greatly cur
tailing production. Michinory which
year ago was woricing to its full
capacity ia now motionless or is
'
being worked but a part of the
timo. In scores of mills the hum
of the spindle has ceased and
in hundreds of factories and workshops
whore a few months ago the hum of busy
industry was hoard there is now silence.
In every industrial city of the
country there are hundreds of
willing workers idle where a
yeau ago there were almost none , and
the indications are that this already
large army of unemployed will continue
to grow.
This is a most unfortunate state of af
fairs and it is to bo apprahondod that it
will become much worse before there is
a change for the bettor. It promises to
place hundreds of thousands of the wage
earnora of the country in a position to
experience much hardship and priva
tion during "the coining winter.
It threatens the creation of an
extraordinary demand upon the
resources of charity. It has already
caused some hardship , but people can
manage to get along at this season of
the year on a comparatively small al
lowance. Just now It is simply a matter
of enough to oat to sustain life and the
plainer it is the bettor. A few months
hence moro food will bo needed , warmer
clothing nnd fuel , increasing materially
the expenses of every family. This is
the season of preparation for the larger
demands of the future , but it will bo lost
to the tens of thousands of laboring people
ple who are thrown out of employment
now and if they are not able to procure
work later on in the year theirs mmt bj
a hard and bitter experience before the
coming winter is passed.
Perhaps it is not well to take a too
pessimistic view of the situation. It is
possible that the depression which is
proving so disastrous to labor inuy not
bo prolonged beyond a month or two.
There are some whoso judgment Is'wor
thy of respectful consideration who confi
dently predict that as soon as the currency
question is properly settled there will bo
a restoration of confidence that will carry
with it u revival of business. It is to bo
hoped that this will bo the eaie , and it
is also to bo hoped thaC congress can bo
induced to bhuro this fooling , so that
there shall bo no unnecessary delay '
in reaching a proper settlement
of the currency question. Un
doubtedly that would Imyp an
excellent ulToct , but that it would re
move all reason for dhtrustnnd all cause
of depression is by no means assured.
Hvory intelligent student of existing
conditions must know that the shutting
down of mills and factories is not wholly
duo to the money stringency and thu
laok of duMnoM. iltbwovor largo apart
thcso may fairly uViv&fliimeil to play In
producing 1 the Industrial depression ,
there ' is another iilllnenco nt work which
will continue to ijpqrnlo after Iho cur-
roney question is deposed of. This Is
the uncertainty nndt apprehension n l"
what the democratic congress and oxocu-
Jlvd-may do In regard to the economic
policy I of the : co'untry. The fear
that the party in qoptrol of the govern
ment . may carry \c\vltt \ \ reform to nn ex
treme that will bo , seriously injurious if
not destructive twrnttny of'thcindustries '
elk the country may prov ? to bo n groundl
less fear. There Is reason to believe
that Mr. Cleveland intends to restrain
the radical element of his party and interpose - '
torposo to jirovont tariff legislation that
might : bo damaging or destructive. But
the fear ox tats , nnd it bin its inlluonco
In inducing manufacturers to curtail
operations. The president "might dispel
ito
extra session of congress , but It Is under
stood ( that ho proposes to confine that
communication to the discussion of the
silver question , perhaps believing that
In the solution of that question will bo
found the remedy for all the financial
and'businoss Ills that nfillct the country.
THE farmers in some of the Now IStig-
land states are unable to got sufficient
help to harvest their crops , which nro
more than ordinarily bounteous , nnd tills
notwithstanding the fact that there is a
great deal of unemployed labor In tlio
cities and the farmers are offering good
wages. Ills said that they are willing
to pay as high as Si'i a month with board
and lodging. The eastern farmers had
a similar experience last year , and there
was difficulty in the northwest also in.
procuring I sufllclont labor during har
vest time , although extraordinary In
ducements were offeree ; , but there was
loss 1 unemployed labor last year than
there is now. There are several ex
planations j of the indisposition of city
laborers to go to the farms. Work on
the . farm is hard , especially to these not
familiar with it , and then farm life gets
in n short time to bo very monotonous.
But an able-bodied man but of work and
with no prospect in the city but that of
Idleness , would deserve no sympathy if
ho refused for thcso reasons a chance for
farm work at fair wages and his sub
sistence.
THKRE is something attractive about
the proposition of the Colorado pcoplo
to issue silver certificates upon bullion
deposited in the vaults of the state , but
it will hardly commend itself to the
shrewd business judgment of the men of
the west. If Coiorado can issue n cur
rency based on deposits of bullion , Wyo
ming could as easily1 do the same with
coal as a basis of. circulation , or Ne
braska with corn , or Dakota with wheat.
The southern farmers could authorize
bunks of circuiatioif with cotton as the
basis , and Virginia and Carolina people
could do the same with tobacco and rico.
The idea is a favored ono with the popu
lists , but it is ono which will never be
come popular.
'is now talking
in Chicago. Hirf latest utterance is :
"The government that is responsible for
such a condition of things as now exists
in the United States , when thbro is no
war or pestilence , should Do wiped from
the face of the earth , but it should bo
done constitutionally. " Under what
clause of the federal constitution two-
thirds of the people of this country can
bo wiped from the face of the earth tbo
governor does not stop to explain. Ho
will , of course , not admit that his 111-
eonsidorod utterances have had much to
do with the social and financial condi
tions in Colorado. Ho should demonetize
his tongue.
SAVINGS banks throughout the east
are rapidly following the example sot by
the resolution of the Now York and
Brooklyn presidents to take advantage
of the rule requiring notice for the with
drawal of deposits. Whatever the effect
of this action may bo upon the present
condition of affuirs it corta'nly ' has great
significance , in that it denotes a confi
dence on the part of these banks that at
the expiration of the designated time
confidence will have boon restored so
that their resources will remain unim
paired. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
SHOIITUNINO the working time at the
local factories and shops imposes a con
siderable hardship upon the laborers ,
but is moro satisfactory than would bean
an entire stoppage of work. The em
ployes cannot well refuse to ah are with
their employers the losses of the present
glut in the commercial markets.
LIST the jobbers and merchants of this
city make a showing of the fact. ? before
the Western Freight association at
Chicago on August 8 and they may bo
coriain that the complete equalization
of the bridge tolls will follow.

The last Now York legislature enacted n
peculiar nnd orlultml tax law which prom
ises to have n very important nnd far roach-

provides simply that every person using a
two-horse wapon or ono still InrRcr on the
publlo \ highway shall have one-half his road
tax rebated If the wheels of his vehicles
have tires not less than three Inches in
width. This Is pnttlncr n notable premium
ii | > on the use of broad "tiros , and cannot fall
to Induce a largo and steadily IncrciuliiR
number to adopt this best protection of the
highways. Already wagon Healers In the
Htnplro state rciwt n Rreat Increase In the
sale of broad-tired wagons , and many farm
ers are having wheels with broad tires put
on old wagons In place of the old narrow
tires. Tha opinion is unanimous that the-
law will certainly nnd sncoJIly lead to the
general adoption of broad tires.

STATEMENT OF CIRCULATION.
According to the statement filed by Theodore Roosevelt, Managing Editor, with the County Clerk of Douglas County, Nebraska, for the week ending July 21, 1917, the average number of copies of The Bee sold or distributed during the week was 23,791, of which 8,130 were daily and 15,661 were Sunday. The total number of copies sold to subscribers was 17,860, and the total number of copies given away was 5,931. The total number of copies lost and unaccounted for was 300.
THIS WEEK'S FIGURES:
Saturday, July 21: 20,050
Monday, July 23: 23,701
Tuesday, July 24: 23,791
Wednesday, July 25: 23,801
Thursday, July 26: 23,783
Friday, July 27: 21,767
Saturday, July 28: 4,413
Total: 157,966
CHANGES IN THE STAFF:
Due to the increase in the circulation of The Bee, the following changes have been made in the editorial staff:
J.W. McLaurin has been appointed Business Manager, replacing K. Bostworth, who has assumed the role of Editor.
G.W. Botsford has been appointed Assistant Editor, replacing J.W. McLaurin.
The office of Chicago Correspondent has been discontinued, and the duties have been divided between G.W. Botsford and H.R. Marling.
These changes are effective immediately.
SIBLING RIVALRY:
The rivalry between The Bee and its sibling, The World-Herald, has reached a fever pitch, with both papers vying for the attention of the Omaha and Nebraska readership. The World-Herald has recently launched a campaign to increase its circulation, and The Bee has responded with a series of innovative initiatives designed to maintain its position as the preferred newspaper.
One such initiative is the inclusion of more local news, focusing on stories that are of particular interest to the Omaha and Nebraska communities. The Bee has also introduced a new Sunday edition, which features a more comprehensive range of news and entertainment sections, including a dedicated sports section.
In addition, The Bee has ramped up its advertising efforts, with a particular focus on attracting local businesses. This has resulted in a significant increase in the number of advertisements appearing in the paper, further enhancing its appeal to readers.
CONTESTS AND EVENTS:
The Bee has always been known for its involvement in the community, and this year is no exception. In addition to the usual events such as the picnic and the Christmas fund, The Bee has launched a new contest aimed at supporting local businesses. The "Buy Nebraska" campaign encourages readers to spend their dollars at businesses within the state, and The Bee provides a list of participating businesses on its website and in the paper itself.
For those interested in more cultural events, The Bee regularly covers concerts, plays, and exhibitions, ensuring that its readers are kept up to date with the latest happenings in the arts and entertainment world.
E-PAPER AND AUDIO VERSIONS:
In addition to the printed edition, The Bee offers an e-paper version, which can be accessed online or via a mobile app. This version is designed to provide the same content as the printed edition, but in a more convenient digital format.
For those who prefer to listen rather than read, The Bee also offers an audio version of its content, available through various podcast platforms. This version is narrated by professional voice actors, ensuring that the same high-quality journalism is delivered in a way that is accessible to all.
INCREASE IN CIRCULATION:
Despite the challenging economic conditions, The Bee has managed to increase its circulation, a testament to the quality of its journalism and the trust its readers have in it. With these latest efforts, The Bee is positioned for continued growth, ensuring that it remains the preferred source of news and information for Omaha and Nebraska for many years to come.
Their confidence in this instance was short-lived. They were rudely awakened from the dream into which they had been lulled when they learned that that tribunal had sustained the constitutionality of those measures. The right of the states to regulate railway rates was distinctly and plainly affirmed. Beaten on this point, they yielded a sullen obedience, henceforth to the law, construing it wherever possible to the injury of the shipper. No effort was omitted to make the law obnoxious to the people and at last these efforts proved successful in securing the repeal of the statute. Three railway commissioners remained, but these were so shorn of their power that the railways regarded them as inoffensive and impotent.
For the next few years, dabbling in politics seemed to have supplanted the transportation of passengers and freight as the purpose for which the companies were incorporated, and by the lavish distribution of railway favors they managed to stave off all further legislation. By 1888 the anti-monopoly forces found themselves once more in power, and despite the desperate resistance of the corporation lobby they enacted a string ent law, placing in the hands of elective commissioners the power to establish reasonable maximum rates subject to appeal to the regularly established judiciary of the state.
Again the railways showed their disposition to resist the law. Again they tried to make the enforcement of its provisions as obnoxious as possible to the people. Special tariffs and terminal rates were withdrawn and distance charges substituted conforming to the letter of the law, but so excessive as to be extortionate. When the commissioners employed their power to construct and promulgate a tariff of maximum rates, the railways displayed their proclivity for injunction proceedings by securing a temporary restraining order to prevent the board from putting the new schedule into force. Here, too, they displayed a cunningness in waiting until only a few days before the new rates were to become effective before bringing in the petition, with the express design that the proceedings might necessarily delay their enforcement. At length, cornered in their own game of litigation, with the temporary injunction withdrawn by the court, they recognized the futility of further opposition and submitted unconditionally to the mandates of the law. For four years they have been operating under the reduced rates fixed by the Iowa commissioners and the threatened bankruptcy has not yet appeared. Not one employee has been discharged solely on account of the maximum rates, nor have the stockholders discovered that their private property has been confiscated.
If the railways were inclined to listen to the dictates of reason, here is a lesson whose moral might well be taken to heart. But corporations do not learn by experience. The railways of Nebraska, in part identical with these who went through the fire of Iowa legislation, prefer to pay the penalty for each now acquisition of knowledge. The same tactics will be pursued - Nebraska, with the same ultimate results.
COMMISSIONER GAUNAUX has led some of the newspaper people of Chicago to believe that the Nebraska building may have to be closed in consequence of the action of Auditor Moore in demanding that receipted vouchers shall accompany the commissioner's drafts upon the World's fair appropriation, Auditor Moore is now checking up the commissioner's July accounts, and if he abides by the recent decision of the supreme court he will draw warrants only for such sums as are covered by vouchers. In short, the commissioner, under the ruling of the court, cannot draw money in advance covering the estimated expenditures for a month or a quarter. While this may handicap the commissioner in some respects, and revolutionize his methods of doing business, it will not justify any attempt to close the Nebraska exhibit. Mr. Garneau certainly could not seriously entertain such an idea. The power which created the official position occupied by him also provided for the state exhibit at the World's fair. No authority less than that of the legislature is competent to close the exhibit. So it will be seen that the commissioner is simply talking for effect.
AS THE TIME FOR THE MEETING OF CONGRESS DRAWS NEAR IT BECOMES MORE APPARENT THAT THE CAMPAIGN WHICH MR. CLEVELAND HAS BEEN PROSECUTING IN HIS PARTY FOR THE REPEAL OF THE SILVER PURCHASE ACT HAS BEEN FAR MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN WAS EXPECTED. THE PRESIDENT SEEMS TO HAVE SHOWN EXCEEDINGLY GOOD JUDGMENT IN THE CONDUCT OF THE CAMPAIGN, AND IT IS BY NO MEANS IMPROBABLE THAT A GOOD SHARE OF THE CREDIT FOR THIS IS DUE TO THAT EXCEEDINGLY SHREWDPOLITICIAN, COLONEL LAMAR, SECRETARY OF WAR, WHO IS SPLENDIDLY EQUIPPED FOR ALMOST ANY TASK REQUIRING POLITICAL ACUUMEN. ABOUT THE FIRST MOVE THE PRESIDENT MADE, AFTER HAVING INDUCED MR. CARLISLE TO ABANDON THE FREE SILVER CAUSE, WAS TO MAKE AN ADHERENT OF MR. CRISP. THE EX-SPEAKER DESIRED RE-LECTION, AND IT WAS NOT DIFFICULT TO CONVINCE HIM THAT THE EASIEST, IF NOT THE ONLY WAY TO SECURE IT WAS TO BE IN HARMONY WITH THE ADMINISTRATION. CRISP WILL AGAIN BE SPEAKER, AND, IF HIS RECENT UTTERANCES ARE SINCERE, THE ADMINISTRATION WILL HAVE NO MORE FAITHFUL FRIEND AND SUPPORTER IN EITHER BRANCH OF CONGRESS THAN HE. NOT ONLY DOES HE FAVOR THE REPEAL OF THE SILVER PURCHASE CLAUSE OF THE SHERMAN ACT BUT IN ORDER TO INSURE THAT RESULT HE IS PREPARED TO HAVE THE RULES OF THE HOUSE FRAMED ACCORDING TO THE PRECEDENT SET BY THE LAST REPUBLICAN CONGRESS. IN BOTH THOSE RESPECTS THE GEORGIA CONGRESSMAN IS THOROUGHLY AND COMPLETELY A CLEVELAND MAN. HAVING MADE SURE OF CRISP, THE NEXT MOST IMPORTANT PERSON TO BE CONVERTED WAS SENATOR VOORHEES, WHO, AS CHAIRMAN OF THE SENATE COMMITTEE ON FINANCE, COULD EXERT A DECIDED INFLUENCE. THE INDIANA SENATOR WAS A MOST PROMINENT AND UNCOMPROMISING FREE SILVER ADVOCATE AND VERY GENERALLY REGARDED BY THE ANTI-FREE SILVER MEN AS A HOPELESS CASE. IT CANNOT BE OVER THREE MONTHS, IF SO LONG, SINCE HE DECLARED THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WOULD HE SUPPORT A MEASURE FOR THE UNCONDITIONAL REPEAL OF THE SHERMAN LAW. BUT UNLESS MR. VOORHEES HAS AGAIN CHANGED HIS MIND WITHIN THE LAST FEW DAYS HE IS NOW AN ADHERENT OF THE ADMINISTRATION AND IS WILLING THAT THE PURCHASE OF SILVER BY THE GOVERNMENT SHALL BE STOPPED UNCONDITIONALLY.
THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER CONVERSIONS, BUT IT IS SUFFICIENT TO MENTION THE MOST PROMINENT AND IMPORTANT. OF COURSE, THERE ARE FREE SILVER DEMOCRATS WHOM THE PRESIDENT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO CONVERT TO HIS VIEWS AND WILL NOT BE. BUT AS THE SITUATION NOW APPEARS HE DOES NOT NEED THEM. IF THIS SHALL PROVE TO BE SO, AND THE MOST TRUSTWORTHY OPINION PREDICTS IT, MR. CLEVELAND MAY FAIRLY CHARGE HIMSELF WITH HAVING ACHIEVED A SIGNAL VICTORY, FOR THE ODDS WERE VERY LARGE AGAINST HIM WHEN HE STARTED ON THE CAMPAIGN. BEING ON TOP THERE IS REASON TO BELIEVE THAT THE PRESIDENT HAS MADE HIMSELF SO SECURE IN HIS POSITION THAT HE WILL HAVE NO DIFFICULTY IN RETAINING IT. NOBODY NOW QUESTIONS THAT THE SILVER PURCHASE CLAUSE OF THE SHERMAN ACT WILL BE REPEALED IN THE HOUSE AND IT IS VERY GENERALLY CONCEDED THAT A MEASURE FOR THIS PURPOSE CAN BE PASSED IN THE SENATE.

NOT THE LEAST SERIOUS AND DEPLORABLE FEATURE OF THE EXISTING DISTRUST AND DEPRESSION IS THE CONDITION OF THE LABOR MARKET. WITHIN THE LAST FEW MONTHS TENS OF THOUSANDS OF WORKERS HAVE BEEN THROWN OUT OF EMPLOYMENT AND EVERY DAY ADDS TO THE ALREADY VAST ARMY OF IDLE LABOR. ALL OVER THE COUNTRY INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISE IS BEING RESTRICTED. MILLS AND FACTORIES ARE SUSPENDING OPERATIONS ALTOGETHER OR GREATLY CURTAILING PRODUCTION. MACHINERY WHICH A YEAR AGO WAS WORKING TO ITS FULL CAPACITY IS NOW MOTIONLESS OR IS BEING WORKED BUT A PART OF THE TIME. IN SCORES OF MILLS THE HUM OF THE SPINDLE HAS CEASED AND IN HUNDREDS OF FACTORIES AND WORKSHOPS WHERE A FEW MONTHS AGO THE HUM OF BUSY INDUSTRY WAS HEARD THERE IS NOW SILENCE. IN EVERY INDUSTRIAL CITY OF THE COUNTRY THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF WILLING WORKERS IDLE WHERE A YEAR AGO THERE WERE ALMOST NONE, AND THE INDICATIONS ARE THAT THIS ALREADY LARGE ARMY OF UNEMPLOYED WILL CONTINUE TO GROW.
This is a most unfortunate state of affairs and it is to be apprehended that it will become much worse before there is a change for the better. It promises to place hundreds of thousands of the wage earners of the country in a position to experience much hardship and privation during the coming winter. It threatens the creation of an extraordinary demand upon the resources of charity. It has already caused some hardship, but people can manage to get along at this season of the year on a comparatively small allowance. Just now it is simply a matter of enough to eat to sustain life and the plainer it is, the better. A few months hence more food will be needed, warmer clothing and fuel, increasing materially the expenses of every family. This is the season of preparation for the larger demands of the future, but it will be lost to the tens of thousands of laboring people who are thrown out of employment now and if they are not able to procure work later on in the year theirs might be a hard and bitter experience before the coming winter is passed.
Perhaps it is not well to take a too pessimistic view of the situation. It is possible that the depression which is proving so disastrous to labor may not be prolonged beyond a month or two. There are some whose judgment is worthy of respectful consideration who confidently predict that as soon as the currency question is properly settled there will be a restoration of confidence that will carry with it a revival of business. It is to be hoped that this will be the case, and it is also to be hoped that congress can be induced to spare this feeling, so that there shall be no unnecessary delay in reaching a proper settlement of the currency question. Undoubtedly that would be an excellent effect, but that it would remove all reason for distrust and all cause of depression is by no means assured. Every intelligent student of existing conditions must know that the shutting down of mills and factories is not wholly due to the money stringency and the lack of demand. However, there may be factors which, apart from these, may fairly be assumed to play a part in producing the industrial depression, there is another influence at work which will continue to operate after the currency question is disposed of. This is the uncertainty and apprehension as to what the democratic congress and executive may do in regard to the economic policy of the country. The fear that the party in control of the government may carry radical reform to an extreme that will be seriously injurious if not destructive to many of the industries of the country may prove to be a groundless fear. There is reason to believe that Mr. Cleveland intends to restrain the radical element of his party and interpose himself to prevent tariff legislation that might be damaging or destructive. But the fear exists, and it has its influence in inducing manufacturers to curtail operations. The president might dispel this fear by an extra session of congress, but it is understood that he proposes to confine that communication to the discussion of the silver question, perhaps believing that in the solution of that question will be found the remedy for all the financial and business ills that afflict the country.
The farmers in some of the New England states are unable to get sufficient help to harvest their crops, which are more than ordinarily bounteous, and this notwithstanding the fact that there is a great deal of unemployed labor in the cities and the farmers are offering good wages. It is said that they are willing to pay as high as $5 a month with board and lodging. The eastern farmers had a similar experience last year, and there was difficulty in the northwest also in procuring sufficient labor during harvest time, although extraordinary inducements were offered; but there was less unemployed labor last year than there is now. There are several explanations of the indisposition of city laborers to go to the farms. Work on the farm is hard, especially to those not familiar with it, and then farm life gets in a short time to be very monotonous. But an able-bodied man without work and with no prospect in the city but that of idleness, would deserve no sympathy if he refused for these reasons a chance for farm work at fair wages and his subsistence.
THERE is something attractive about the proposition of the Colorado people to issue silver certificates upon bullion deposited in the vaults of the state, but it will hardly commend itself to the shrewd business judgment of the men of the west. If Colorado can issue a currency based on deposits of bullion, Wyoming could as easily do the same with coal as a basis of circulation, or Nebraska with corn, or Dakota with wheat. The southern farmers could authorize banks of circulation with cotton as the basis, and Virginia and Carolina people could do the same with tobacco and rice. The idea is a favorite one with the populists, but it is one which will never be popular.
The governor of Colorado is now talking in Chicago. His latest utterance is: "The government that is responsible for such a condition of things as now exists in the United States, when there is no war or pestilence, should be wiped from the face of the earth, but it should be done constitutionally." Under what clause of the federal constitution two-thirds of the people of this country can be wiped from the face of the earth, the governor does not stop to explain. He will, of course, not admit that his ill-considered utterances have had much to do with the social and financial conditions in Colorado. He should demonetize his tongue.
SAVINGS banks throughout the east are rapidly following the example set by the resolution of the New York and Brooklyn presidents to take advantage of the rule requiring notice for the withdrawal of deposits. Whatever the effect of this action may be upon the present condition of affairs it certainly has great significance, in that it denotes a confidence on the part of these banks that at the expiration of the designated time confidence will have been restored so that their resources will remain unimpaired.
SHORTENING the working time at the local factories and shops imposes a considerable hardship upon the laborers, but is more satisfactory than would be an entire stoppage of work. The employees cannot well refuse to share with their employers the losses of the present glut in the commercial markets.
LIST the jobbers and merchants of this city make a showing of the fact before the Western Freight association at Chicago on August 8 and they may be certain that the complete equalization of the bridge tolls will follow.

The Guild Moment.
, (Holy Democrat.
The gout movement, is a feature of the financial situation which deserves some attention. Since January 1, the country has exerted about $3,000,000 in gold and imported about $11,000,000. In our dealings with the outside world, in the past seven months, we have paid out about $53,000,000 more gold than we have taken in. But the tide has turned in our favor now, while the exportation of gold has ceased, its importation is setting in. In the past two or three weeks, it has been coming in at the rate of about $1,000,000 per week, and the movement is increasing. More than twice that amount is on its way to the country at the present time. The difficulty that there might be by the time Congress passes fairly at work in the exports of the metal will be $600,000,000 or the exact amount sold on November 11,000,000 per week. This increase in commerce is rendered tolerably certain by the present growth in merchandise imports and the reduction of the balance of trade against us.
A Permanent Solution to Road Tires.
The last New York legislature enacted a peculiar and orificial tax law which promises to have a very important and far-reaching effect upon the roads of the state. It provides simply that every person using a two-horse wagon or one still under on the public highway shall have one-half his road tax rebated if the wheels of his vehicle have tires not less than three inches in width. This is putting a notable premium on the use of broad tires, and cannot fail to induce a large and steadily increasing number to adopt this best protection of the highways. Already, wagon dealers in the Niagara state report a great increase in the sale of broad-tired wagons, and many farmers are having wheels with broad tires put on old wagons in place of the old narrow tires. The opinion is unanimous that the law will certainly and undoubtedly lead to the general adoption of broad tires.
Elevating the Finest.
The school amendment to the constitution, upon which the people of that state will vote, provides that the taxes for school purposes levied upon the whites and blacks shall be kept separate and that each race shall have the benefit of what it pays. The result, if the amendment is adopted, will be that the school facilities of the Negroes will be very scant. In a technical sense, they pay only a fraction of the tax for the support of the schools, but any economist knows that this is no fair criterion of the part of the burden of taxation they bear. Alabama seems determined, however, to maintain this discrimination. The whites in that state, having robbed the black man of the ballot, propose now to keep him in ignorance.

The extraordinary session of the Fifty-third congress should profit by the horrible example set by the House of Commons and whenever there is danger of friction it would had better adjourn promptly rather than risk the possibility of physical conflict. The damage resultant from an English parliamentary fight is limited to bruises, for there the list is the only weapon, but a riot in the house of representatives would give experience in gunshot wounds and stabs numerous opportunities for extending their experience. Therefore, it behooves the coming congress to restrain its sarcasm and avoid the unruly passions which are always on tap.
The End of Experimentation.
Many of the suspended banks in the west which have proved themselves financially sound are arranging to resume business, and the people will not in the future be so easily frightened into "runs." Hundreds and thousands of men have lost their savings of the years past by withdrawing their funds. Eastern savings depositors have acted with more discretion than their western brethren.
Banking the Sum
Kansas City Journal.
The attorney general of Colorado rules that it is within the power of the legislature to provide for a depository of silver bullion and the issuance of certificates thereon, assignable by delivery and receivable by the state in payment of state taxes. The state ticket elected in Colorado last fall appears to be pretty much alike, all the way down. Governor Waite is only an average sample.
Signs of Improvement.
Many mills have closed in different parts of the country in the past few weeks on account of the financial disturbance, but some of them are opening again. One big factory in Connecticut and another in New York have just resumed work. Resumptions will probably be numerous before the fall season fairly begins.

It is a leap from that period to today, when there are more than 100 silk factories in that town engaged in throwing, dyeing, and weaving silk.

In the coming livestock exhibition at the World's fair, Iowa growers should be well represented.

A jolly Irishman from southern Indiana has built himself a greenhouse just to show visitors how to ventilate such buildings. To demonstrate the possibility of producing any temperature at any time of year by the proper means, he has camped in his patent arrangement during the hottest of hot days past and discoursed on the comfort of an atmosphere controlled by the Indiana plan. His enthusiasm dampened a little, he says, during the middle of one day, but with that exception he has been ready to show that ice cream might almost be manufactured without ice in a house using his ventilator.
Comanche, the only living thing that escaped the massacre on the Little Big Horn when Custer and his command were annihilated by the Sioux, died a few years after the battle, and was stuffed by order of the government. It is now to be seen at the Kansas state building at the World's fair, having been loaned to the state by the national government. Comanche was the horse of gallant Captain Keogh, who was killed with his chief at the "Last Stand," The horse was wounded in the battle, and his life was with difficulty preserved. Keogh's men cared for him as though he had been human, and after his recovery, he was sent to Fort Lincoln, from which he was sent to Fort Meade. Later, he was transferred to Fort Riley, Kan., where he passed his latter days in peace, dying of old age when he had rounded out the ripe term of 31 years. Captain Keogh was the last man who rode Comanche. The dignity of a general order was invoked to save the horse from the indignity of turning in the ranks.

Chas. (Chat)ley Collins dead. The announcement will be received with sterner regret by all the older newspaper men of the Missouri valley. A more generous soul never winged its flight to its maker. A brighter, brainier, or more companionable man could hardly be found in the roster of western journalists. His makeup was a bundle of electric nerves with an overlight on top. He personified hustle, and was impatient of delay in reaching the goal he sought. Working as he did under high pressure, his safety valve gave way frequently. For this, he was considered erratic. It was rather a yearning for a broader sphere than was within his grasp. Whatever his faults, they were trifles compared with his boundless sympathies and lavish generosity prompted by a heart as warm and unselfish as overthrobbed in human frame. Peace to his spirit!

Grand Myth Independent.
The Nebraska railroads acted as if they were ready to comply with the maximum rate law, preparing new tariffs, etc. But all this seems to have been only a feint. The officials of the roads and the complaining stockholders, of course, met together with a full understanding in order to protect the officials from the heavy fines of the law, and in order to take the decision away from the Nebraska courts and throw it into the federal courts. The question of the constitutionality of the law will certainly be taken up to the United States supreme court, in this way delaying the carrying out of the law.
THE NATIONAL GRAMMAR.
Chicago Express: Incidentally, the present French government has done a great stroke of campaign business which will count in the August elections.
Globe-Democrat: The glory that France has gained in the Siam matter is very much like that which a bully achieves by intimidating a cripple.
Kansas City Journal: France is elated. Siam's unconditional yielding to all her hogish demands has left no semblance of excuse for war.
Chicago Record: In the main, the bold stroke of the French government has been successful, and a republic which is opposed to colonizing foreign territory has acquired new rights. How long will it rest content with its new possessions?
Minneapolis Tribune: For a small republic, France is doing quite well in the land-grabbing business, and is apparently just getting fairly under way. She is said to be looking with covetous eyes upon Egypt and Morocco and is pushing forward steadily in the Congo region and Dahomey.
New York Tribune: Henceforth, the name of Siam will have only a historical significance. But it is an unsurpassed bit of the irony of fate that the wisest and best of Asiatic rulers should find his own and his country's destruction at the hands of that very civilization which he has so assiduously cultivated.
Cincinnati Commercial: So poor little Siam has had to back down and give in, and the French "ingers" have won a bloodless victory, with which they can appeal to the passions of the voters at the next general election. The French government was dramatic enough. Siam could not resist the force presented by France, and willingly, right or wrong, submitted to the demands of the French "ingers".
Chicago Times: England is probably sorely disappointed that Spain gave in to France before she was ready to stick her nose into the quarrel. The United States is the real sufferer by the failure of war, though; for the United States would have been called upon to feed all the combatants and the majority of the stay-at-homes as well. Which she is prepared to do at so much per head without limitation as to born or prejudice as to principles.
Boston Courier: During the preserving season, the housewife realizes that one of the occupations is to preserve her equanimity.
Washington Post: Johnnie, do you think despots impose? Papa, don't know. Ask the hired girl.
Philadelphia Inquirer: "Miss Bellinger has been up in the Alps, and now she's off for the Rockies," observed Wiggs. "Ah, Jim," said Wiggs, "off for other climbs, too?" Inquiries from John: "Aren't you working now, Jim?"
"New. I thanked a passenger for the handed me his fare the other day, and a shaming spotter on board allowed from that time I was taking the fare for my own use."
Life: Tankley Gibson sent me a bottle yesterday containing a snake preserved in alcohol.
Think he meant to insult you? Tankley—don't know, but I certainly do not appreciate the gift nor the spirit in which it was tendered.
Chicago Tribune: Yesterday Miss Walkner paid me a midnight compliment last night, shall we? What was it, dear boy? Monday, insisted if she would dance with me, and she said she liked my face.
Detroit News Press: Collector (mad) When are you going to pay this bill? Debtor: Never. What's the use? As long as you are coming after it, why should I be going to pay it?
Clerk: Now these shoes have the improved sole, guaranteed not to come untied.
Fair customer (in haste): Oh, put the old kind in again, please!
Dallas News: Every thrifty American citizen has three sandwiches on his back.
Truth: "Why do you take a Philadelphia mushrooms, looks?" inquired Mason. "It refreshes my memory," replied Mason.
Chicago Tribune Ocean: Jennie, don't you think Miss Davenport's puppy eyes spell her bounty?
Tom: No; it's her ice cream mouth that does it.
How pleasant, these warm summer days, To sit beneath the shade Of an almond trust out in the park, With some sweet summer wind; To constitution the cool, strong grass; And talk of LOVE'S delights, Then have a snack at midnight for hours And scratch the itch for bites.

And this is why, good people, all, I idle beneath, whim such a load Of words are loosed upon humanity And bridges that are dipped in blood, manufacturing and rotation Of clothing in the world.

May be they don't; may be They buy a suit somewhere And it wears out before July. They don't get it here. At any rate, we have had quite a run on our summer suits in the past, probably on account of the phenomenal low prices. We never carry over any suits, even if we do sacrifice on them. We are also making some extraordinary prices on straw hats to close out the few we have left. A $2.50 brown stiff hat for $1.50.

WASHINGTON , Aug. 1. J
The comptroller of the currency today com
pleted a statement of the condition of the
national banks of Iowa on July 13 last , ox-
elusive of these of DCS Molnos. The state
ment Is very encouraging , and shows that
the banks of the Hawkeye state arc In n
good and safe condition. The nvorago ro-
8orvo is 20.03 per cent , which Is nbovo the
average and moro than the law requires.
The total resources are : Loans and dis
counts , $1(3,107,783 ( ; pverdrafts , $349.303 : duo
from reserve agents , $ . ' ! , ' . ! 14,110 ; duo from

The largo amount of available cash , the
healthy reserve and the comparatively small
total of rediscounts warrant the officials in
the oflloo of the comptroller of the currency
In saying that depositors may fool perfectly
sccuro with their money In Iowa
national banks. The recapitulation
of the statements of the Dos Molnos
nationals makes n somewhat hotter presenta
tion than that of the banks throughout the
state. The reserve of the Dos Moincs banks
Is 23.85 per cent , wh'lch Is over 2 per cent
above the banks of the stato. The resources
of the Dos Molnos national banks are : Loans
nud discounts , $2,200,003 ; overdrafts$15.8-13 ;
duo from banks and agents , $348,603 ; checks
and cash itoms7,045 , ; bills of other banks ,

High democratic authority is had for the

that Joseph D. Sayres of Texas will bo

ways nud moans committee , but Mr. Holmnn
will bo relegated from appropriations and
given the chairmanship of n minor commit
tee. Bourke Cockran of Now York has
asked to bo relieved from the ways and

mcnt made at the .Postofllco department to

There will bo a largo dolicicnoy and the
prospects for enlarged appropriations at the

good ; besides the regular noatollico appro

for any thing further frqm this department

PiTTsnuno , Aug.1 , Assistant Secre
tary of the Interior , .7tmn M , Reynolds
sent a letter to Jiidgo Single of the
county court on thq , pension question ,
which 1ms just vouched the city. The
letter explains the policy of the admin
istration regarding1 tlio suspension of
pensioners. It says suspension from the
pension rolls Imvo boon , made by vlrtuo
of nn order of the secretary b'usod on the
ruling filed by the writer , which holds
that n limn who is nblo to earn support
by manual labor has no right to n pen
sion under section 2 , of the net of Juno
27 , 1800. This opinion , writes Mr. Rey
nolds , was approved by the secretary of
the interior and nttornoy general , and
ho had never hoard its soundness ques
tioned ,
The order of Commissioner Rautn fix
ing rntos under tlio net ignored the es
sential basis of a pensionable status the
inability to perform manual labor. Fur
ther , the evidence which might have
shown the pensionable disability to have
the result of vicious hnblts was not re
quired.
The writer tells how the "erroneous
order" of. Commissioner Raiim came to
bo mndo , in defiance of nn opinion by As
sistant Secretary of the Interior Uussoy.
This order of Commissioner Raum was
approved November 15 , 181)0. ) Its error
was not exposed untll July 7 , 1893 , after
321o02 , claims had been adjudicated In
pursimnco thereof.
"Tho government , " says the latter ,
"In equal justice to these soldiers whoso
claims were not adjudicated July 7,1893 ,
when the department pointed out the
error of the bureau , demands there
should not bo ono instance of a law
for a portion of tbo pensioners , nn-
ether for the remainder whoso claims
are unadjudlcftted ; This administration
would not bo it party to perpetuating it
monstrous wrong to the nation and that
class of the ponsionor.i under the act of
1890 , a number of whoso claims are un-
cxnmined. "
"A board of revision has boon estab
lished In the pension oillco , " continues
the letter , "for the purpose of reviewing
tHe former adjudication under the act of
1890. Tlio members or this board nro
not all democrats. The chief is a re
publican and the medical referee ap
pointed during the administration of
Benjamin Harrison isamombor thereof.
These occur to mo as I write ; how many
others are of tlio same political faith I
do not know , but no honest pensioner
need bo alarmed by their activity , as
they are instructed to carry out the law
as construed by both administrations
and nothing moro.
"Tho present practice relative to sus
pensions is not now , , but strictly in line
with that hitherto prevailing. Suspen
sions are under section 2 of tho-act of
Juno 27 , and a'ro not general
under all pension laws. No ro-oxnmina-
tion has been ordered of tho70,000claims ,
of widows , minors and , , dependent rela
tives pensioned undoc.tho samoact.nor of
the 021,000 , claims llo\vcd under prior
laws for disabilities.'cdntraotcd in the
service , and in tlib lino'of duty , and In
the case of the widows , minors and dependent -
pendent relatives , not such pensioners ,
no re-examination whatever is for a mo
ment contemplated. " * ' * *
'In conclusion I might add that this
administration is liOUlibstilo to the sol
dier who fought for the union. Wo nro
at present engaged in correcting "abuses.
Wo are pledged to muko tlio pension roll
a roll of honor , andwp wil | Continue our
work fearlessly until'tho people who de
manded this reform' shall call a halt. "

Group 9 on the Latest Phase of the Maximum Rate Law.
AFFECTED LIKE ANY OTHER MEASURE
It only in Effect It Cannot be

Finally Determined
by the Court.
LINCOLN, Aug. 1. [Special to THE BEE.] Governor Crowe returned from his Wisconsin trip at noon today and was at his desk this afternoon for the first time in ten days. As he had left the state for the purpose of gaining a brief respite from the arduous course of official duty, he had paid little attention to the details of the railroad question and was therefore not prepared to express any opinion as to the merits of the many injunction cases that had been commenced during his absence.
"As I look at the matter," remarked the Governor to a reporter for THE BEE this afternoon, "the law goes into effect today. It does not require any official proclamation from the governor. It is as much
of a law today as if an especial proclamation were issued to
announce the fact to the public. While I have not informed myself yet as to
the merits of the injunctions brought during my absence from the state, I am free to express the opinion that the result will be that the law, although really in effect, is necessarily suspended until the questions involved
are finally determined by the courts. If the legislature should pass a law making a radical amendment in the taxation laws, it would necessarily be suspended. If any interested parties should take out an injunction from a superior court restraining the State Board of Assessment, the county commissioners, or other officials vested with the authority to enforce its provisions, the maximum rate law, I take it, would be similarly affected." (follows the statement Lincoln.)
Auditor Moore today filed with the secretary of state a new bond with the names of G.V. Holland, J.H. McClay, N.S. Harvey, E.H. Sizer, and Sam McClay as sureties. The auditor's old bond has not been officially challenged, although it is signed by C.W. Mosher and H.S. Outcalt, officers of the defunct Capital National bank, but Mr. Moore preferred to give a new bond which should be above suspicion. It was approved by Governor Crowe.
Nathan Fodroy, one of the traveling auditors appointed in accordance with the provisions of the new law, which goes into effect today, filed his bond with the secretary of state this afternoon. He will commence the duties of his new position within a few days.
Chief Justice Maxwell visited the state house this afternoon in connection with business brought by the State Banking board.
Nearly all of the state officials have been served with a bundle of injunctions restraining them from doing anything to make the new maximum rate law effective.
U.B. Green of Kearney was at the state house this afternoon.
An entertaining case this forenoon involved Attorney McNornay and Attorney Altschuler, two legal lights from Lincoln who became involved in a difficulty the other day which ended in a small-sized riot. The fracas occurred in McNornay & Altschuler's office,
where the latter was endeavoring to settle a point of law involving a couple of dollars
with a man named Henry Burcham. Burcham assaulted at the trial this morning that Altschuler struck him in the face.
After the scrap between the two men had continued for some time, both made their way out of the room, but at the door McNornay appeared and took a hand by knocking Burcham a few times from behind. A fourth party named Fitzgerald then put in an appearance and sided with Burcham. When the cruel war was over Burcham swore out a warrant against McNornay and Altschuler.
Judge Waters held the two men to the district court in the sum of $100 each.
Clothing House Closed.
The Globe clothing house of this city temporarily closed its doors last evening with the announcement that it would be opened on Wednesday of this week. It develops,
however, that the proprietor, M.A. Nowmark, had given a bill of sale to Michael Storno & Co., a wholesale clothing firm of Rochester, N.Y., for the entire stock, the consideration being $22,630.45. Mr. Newmark has been prominently identified with
business interests of Lincoln for the past eight or nine years and has always enjoyed
the confidence of his associates. He has carried a stock amounting to probably
$9,500,000, but has been compelled to give a bill of sale for his property on account of over
stock, hard times and poor collections. Last night the firm of W.M. Stippich & Co.
filed suit against him for $602.23 for a bill of goods sold some time since.

Thieves entered the residence at 1744 V street some time yesterday and stole a lady's cold watch, some jewelry, and $20 in cash. The police have been unable to find a clue to the perpetrators of the robbery.
Mrs. Smithson and Mrs. Roscoe, two helpless ladies living in this city, were frightfully injured in a runaway last evening.
Both were thrown from a carriage and dashed against the stone curb with sufficient force to deprive them of consciousness. Two physicians have been in attendance
today and it is hoped that the two ladies will suffer nothing more serious than temporary disability.
Carl Pllegler, who is accused of a criminal assault on 10-year-old Joseph Gallagher, will have his trial at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
VAILLALAN INVOLVED.
Decision Remains Unknown in Case Involving Mexican Land Claims.
HASTINGS, AUG. 1. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] A telegram was received here today stating that the demurrer filed in the
case of John D. McCollough of this city and others against the United States and others
in the private land court sitting at Santa Fe, N.M., has been overruled. This action
of a court which has never been reversed in any of its rulings by the supreme court of
the United States is regarded as a victory for the plaintiff, especially as the argument
on the demurrer admitted the facts as
claimed by Kcedlo, and was on the legal aspects of the case.
In April, 1886, John O. Heath, or in Spanish, Juan Olds, of Booneville, Mo.,
made application to the emperor of Mexico for twenty-five Barro Spanish leagues of
land in the southeastern part of New Mexico, agreeing to found thereon, within two years, a colony of thirty Catholic families. This application after various formalities was granted by the council of El Paso and the treaty duly surveyed. Heath left and returned in 1888 with his
colony, but in the meantime a revolution had taken place and the emperor had been
deposed. The revolutionists threatened Heath's life, and he was obliged to flee with his followers. This notion of the government
made the deeds in trust absolute according to the claim of the plaintiffs. Heath was the grandfather of Kcedlo, who interested himself
in the claim about two years ago and obtained the power of attorney from the other heirs. The land in question comprises 1,320 acres of the western part of New Mexico,
thirty miles northwest from El Paso and embodying several populous cities.

WEST POINT, Neb., Aug. 1, [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] John Janock, a prominent farmer living eight miles west of West Point, committed suicide by shooting himself in the breast on Monday. He died the same night. He was a prominent member of the Bohemian Club, C.S., F.S., under whose auspices he will be buried.

SIOUX CITY, Aug. 1. [Special to THE HERALD.]
A spirited and enthusiastic Congregational meeting was held Sunday night at Trinity Lutheran Church, to act on the resignation of the pastor, Rev. C. Leo Flock, which he placed in the hand of the congregation at the completion of his fourth year of work. Unanimously the members voted not to accept the resignation, and strong resolutions were adopted on his work. Mr. Flock is a public spirited gentleman, and has manifested much interest in public affairs. The congregation believes he has a great work yet to perform before leaving here. He will doubtless remain and continue his work.
NOTES FROM NOTIONS.
FREMONT, Aug. 1. [Special to THE HERALD.]
A numerously signed petition was presented to Dr. L. J. Abbott to address the people of Fremont on the question of finance, which elicited a favorable response. He will speak at the park on Saturday evening if the weather is suitable. Ex-Marshal and Government Architect Oliver Smith threatens to reply, which will probably hold the audience into Sunday hours.
The Enworth League of the Methodist Episcopal Church held a very pleasant social meeting on the church lawn last evening.
George Campbell of the American Express office ignited a parlor match in his residence and was severely burned before the clothing could be extinguished.
Sheriff Dartok of Kearney County was in the city today to take back to the scene of his exploits the housebreaker, Sam Pearson, who went through the residence of A. F. Clark on Friday night. A suit of clothes and a gold watch taken at the time were found on his person.
Three members of the now famous class of the Fremont Turnverein have returned from Milwaukee. They bring the trophies won by the clans in the national contest.
Dr. and Mrs. U. Whelply were thrown from their cart and considerably injured while out riding yesterday. Mr. Whelply was most severely injured and is now using a crutch.
The points of the pipes of the wells that supply the city waterworks are so badly stopped up that they do not furnish one-third the water they did at first and they are now undergoing overhauls.
Another gang of men have been put on the ditches and excavations for the sewer pipe, and the work is being rapidly pushed.
James R. Cain, cashier of the State Bank of Stella, was appointed receiver for the defunct Farmers State Bank at Shubert.
When the bank suspended by reason of the defalcation of its cashier, the State Banking Board recommended the appointment of George K. Go, the chairman of the defunct bank, but his appointment was unsatisfactory to the creditors and stockholders, and when the time came today for the appointment of a permanent receiver, Church Howe and Frank Martin appeared before the court with a petition representing over 85 percent of the depositors, asking for the appointment of Mr. Cain. After hearing the arguments on both sides, the chief Justice decided to appoint the Stella cashier.

LINCOLN, Aug. 1. (Special Telegram to THE HERALD.]
A. Cassaday was arrested and placed in the city Jail here this evening on the charge of forgery. He had formerly been in the employ of F. A. Mason, a well-known contractor and builder, but had been discharged. By representing that he was still in the employ of Mason, he succeeded in passing three forged checks on local banks, all for small amounts. The forgery was cleverly executed and one or two of the checks had passed the clearing house before their fraudulent character was discovered.
A collision occurred in the B. & M. yards here this afternoon. Freight No. 114, east-bound, ran into freight No. 117, north-bound, with sufficient force to wreck both engines and derail three cars, besides damaging a number of others. No. 117, under Conductor Cleveland, was switching and was backing down the track when she was struck by 114, in charge of Conductor Myers, which was just entering the yards.
The crews of both trains jumped and saved themselves. It took the wrecking train about four hours to clear the track.
SUTTER, Aug. 1. [Special Telegram to THE HERALD.]
The Methodist Episcopal Church laid the corner stone of its new building this evening.

A very large number witnessed the ceremonies conducted by Elder Adams of Hastings. Among other interesting documents, the box in the corner contains copies of THE OMAHA BEE, State Journal, Call, World-Herald, Omaha Christian Advocate, and Sutton Advertiser.
DESOLATION OF OFFICIAL BANK OVER.
BROOKS CITY, Neb., Aug. 1. [Special Telegram to THE HERALD.] A. J. McPoak, the defaulting ex-county treasurer who was found short $10,000, was today bound over to the district court. The interest in the case crowded the court room with citizens from all parts of the county. The ex-treasurer's books, offered in evidence, were shown to have been changed in many places. The deputies employed during the McPoak administration were that the changed figures were in McPoak's handwriting.
NO LONELY DEATH IN DULUTH.
GRAND ISLAND, Aug. 1. [Special to THE HERALD.] U. W. Wells, a stranger, brought a bunch of bills which were badly burned on both ends to the Security National bank of this city yesterday for redemption. He claimed that he had it in some clothing which caught fire, but it is rumored that the combination of a lack of confidence in banks, the burial of the bills under a haystack, and a bolt of lightning had a good deal to do with the situation. The package was sent to Washington uncounted.
MORTAL DEATH OF A CHILD.
CAMERON, Neb., Aug. 1. [Special to THE HERALD.] Leroy Wilson, the 8-year-old son of John Wilson, a farmer living near here, met death in a remarkable manner yesterday. While swinging alone, the rope broke and the boy fell face downward, and on a stick which penetrated nearly to the heart. When found a few minutes later by his little brother, he was several feet from the blood-covered stick and dead. The funeral was held here today and was largely attended.

Plenon, near Newark, O., last night, John Kittle and James Bowers, married, and Frank Bell, Peter Bell and Newman Sellen were killed, Joseph Shipper, James Kittle, Thomas Edmunds and Luther Sello were badly hurt, the first two, it is feared, fatally. The cause of the explosion was low water in the boiler.
NATIONAL BANKS OF IOWA Their Condition as Presented by the Comptroller of the Currency.
AVERAGE RESERVE HELD QUITE HIGH How the Democratic House of Representatives Will Arrange the Important Committees of Congress at the Approaching Session Now Men to the Front.
WASHINGTON BUREAU OF THE BRA, 508 FOURTEENTH STREET, WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. The comptroller of the currency today completed a statement of the condition of the national banks of Iowa on July 13 last, exclusive of those of Des Moines. The statement is very encouraging, and shows that the banks of the Hawkeye state are in a good and safe condition. The average reserve is 20.03 per cent, which is above the average and more than the law requires.
The total resources are: Loans and discounts, $1,307,783; overdrafts, $349,303; due from reserve agents, $14,110; due from other national banks, $53,157; due from state banks, $36,503; checks and other cash items, $340,651; bills of other national banks, $523,021; fractional currency, $35,421; specie, $2,531,701; legal tender notes, $1,215,283; total resources, $25,209,903. Liabilities, capital, $13,015,000; surplus, $3,046,171; undivided profits, $7,204,310; national bank notes issued, $3,005,005; individual deposits, $25,013,307; United States deposits, $600,351; deposits of United States disbursing officers, $11,400; due other national banks, $18,600,003; due state banks, $1,740,000; rediscounts, $1,101,077.
Iowa Banks Safe.
The large amount of available cash, the healthy reserve and the comparatively small total of rediscounts warrant the officials in the office of the comptroller of the currency in saying that depositors may feel perfectly secure with their money in Iowa national banks. The recapitulation of the statements of the Des Moines nationals makes a somewhat better presentation than that of the banks throughout the state. The reserve of the Des Moines banks is 23.85 per cent, which is over 2 per cent above the banks of the state. The resources of the Des Moines national banks are: Loans and discounts, $2,200,003; overdrafts $15,813; due from banks and agents, $348,603; checks and cash items 7,045; bills of other banks, $20,725; fractional currency, $1,014; specie, $135,250; legal tender, $181,233. Liabilities, capital, $700,000; surplus, $334,000; profits undivided, $123,000; circulation, $1,815,000; individual deposits, $1,250,017; due other banks, $214,001; due state banks, $205,728; rediscounts, $91,000; bills payable, $135,000.
Filling of Democratic House of Representatives.
High democratic authority is had for the positive statement that William L. Wilson of West Virginia will be chairman of the house committee on ways and means, and that Joseph D. Sayres of Texas will be chairman of the committee on appropriations. Mr. Springer will likely go upon the ways and means committee, but Mr. Holmann will be relegated from appropriations and given the chairmanship of a minor committee. Bourke Cockran of New York has asked to be relieved from the ways and means and, it is stated, he will head the committee on coinage, weights and measures, as Mr. Bland of Missouri is to be replaced in that position. This program has been agreed upon by the president, Secretary Carlisle and Speaker Crisp.
"To Postoffices.
"You may say that unless congress passes a postoffice deficiency bill there will be no more postoffices given free delivery or increases of clerical hire in Nebraska or Iowa under a year from this time" was the statement made at the Postoffice department to THE BEE correspondent today. "We have no money for free delivery extensions or extra earners or clerks, and it will be an absolute waste of time for the postmasters or citizens of Nebraska to apply for them. There will be a deficiency and the prospects for enlarged appropriations at the hands of the approaching congress are not good; besides the regular postoffice appropriation bill which will be passed about not spring will not go into effect till the 1st of July. It looks as though the outlook for anything further from this department under the next year was the worst possible. "
News for the Army.
The following army orders were issued today:
Leave of absence for one month to take effect August 7, is granted First Lieutenant Edwin O. Hoot, Nineteenth Infantry.
Captain Morris C. Footo, Ninth infantry, is detailed to attend the encampment of the National Guard of Vermont at Rutland, August 15 to 20. He will report by letter to the governor of Vermont for such service as may be required of him during the encampment.
Captain David A. Lyle, ordnance department, will proceed to Sandy Hook proving grounds on official business pertaining to the ordnance department, and upon the completion of this duty will return to his proper station.
First Lieutenant Ormond M. Lissak, ordnance department, will proceed from Bonilla arsenal to Fort Winfield Scott, Cal., on official business pertaining to the test of certain powder for the ordnance department, and on the completion of this duty will return to his proper station.
Gists for Plain Prediction.
Tobias Castor's grist of new postmasters for Nebraska, anticipated by a BEE special last night, was not promulgated today at the Postoffice department. The appointments were in the grind, it was stated, but the names of the successful democrats would not be known under a day or two. Ninety-six postmasters were announced today, but the only appointments of interest to THE BEE readers were those of Miss Leila Dean at Seneca, Faulk county, S. D., vice Fred Kolnold, resigned, and William Hunt at Clearymont, Sheridan county, Wyo., vice U. Stong, resigned.
Miscellaneous.
The acting secretary of the Interior today affirmed the commissioners' decision in the timber culture contest of Frank Gaus vs Thomas McKee from Huron, S. D., dismissing Gaus' contest.

Franco Fumbles at Point.
PARIS, Aug. 1. Franco is not having everything her own way in the Siam Incident. Lord Dillon has obtained from the French government assurance that the question of the Shan states will be settled in the manner desired by England. This means that they will be restored to Siam, which had no right to cede them. This settlement of the difficulty is the result of a cabinet council and two interviews which the British ambassador had with Foreign Minister Delcassé. The embassy is now engaged in active telegraphic communication with the foreign office at London. The negotiations with England will probably last some time. It remains for the government to break the news gently that Lord Dillon has won his point.
Domestic Drunkard.
WEST SULPHUR, Aug. 1. Advices from Shell Lake and Spooner in Washburn County, on the Omaha road, buy that some 500 Indians have congregated. They have permits to go out on tour and pick berries, and have taken advantage of this freedom to engage in nighttime rowdyism. Whisky flows freely. Many are nude, and while upon the shores of the cottages have been made by them.
In the Interior Department, Assistant Secretary Reynolds sent a letter to Judge Single of the county court on the pension question, which has just voted the city. The letter explains the policy of the administration regarding the suspension of pensioners. It says suspension from the pension rolls has been made by virtue of an order of the secretary based on the ruling filed by the writer, which holds that a man who is able to earn support by manual labor has no right to a pension under section 2, of the act of June 27, 1890. This opinion, writes Mr. Reynolds, was approved by the secretary of the interior and attorney general, and he had never heard its soundness questioned.
The order of Commissioner Raum fixing rates under the act ignored the essential basis of a pensionable status, the inability to perform manual labor. Further, the evidence which might have shown the pensionable disability to have the result of vicious habits was not required.
The writer tells how the "erroneous order" of Commissioner Raum came to be made, in defiance of an opinion by Assistant Secretary of the Interior Hanson. This order of Commissioner Raum was approved November 15, 1890. Its error was not exposed until July 7, 1893, after 321,002 claims had been adjudicated in pursuance thereof.
"The government," says the letter, "in equal justice to these soldiers whose claims were not adjudicated July 7,1893, when the department pointed out the error of the bureau, demands there should not be one instance of a law for a portion of the pensioners, and neither for the remainder whose claims are unadjudicated; This administration would not be a party to perpetuating an monstrous wrong to the nation and that class of the pensioners under the act of 1890, a number of whose claims are unexamined."
"A board of revision has been established in the pension office," continues the letter, "for the purpose of reviewing the former adjudication under the act of 1890. The members of this board are not all democrats. The chief is a republican and the medical referee appointed during the administration of Benjamin Harrison is a member thereof. These occur to me as I write; how many others are of the same political faith I do not know, but no honest pensioner need be alarmed by their activity, as they are instructed to carry out the law as construed by both administrations and nothing more.
"The present practice relative to suspensions is not now, but strictly in line with that hitherto prevailing. Suspensions are under section 2 of the act of June 27, and are not general under all pension laws. No re-examination has been ordered of the 70,000 claims of widows, minors and dependent relatives pensioned under the same act, nor of the 321,000 claims allowed under prior laws for disabilities incurred in the service, and in the line of duty, and in the case of the widows, minors and dependent relatives, not such pensioners, no re-examination whatever is for a moment contemplated.
"In conclusion, I might add that this administration is loyal to the soldier who fought for the union. We are at present engaged in correcting "abuses. We are pledged to make the pension roll a roll of honor, and we will continue our work fearlessly until the people who demanded this reform shall call a halt."
LAKE FOUNDRY CLOSES AND WESTERN TRAIN SERVICE REDUCED.
SALT LAKE, Aug. 1. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] Still further and more sweeping railroad retrenchments were put in force here today. The Union Pacific foundry, which has been in continuous operation in this city since 1871, closed its doors, every man employed being laid off. All iron and steel work for the mountain division will hereafter be done in Omaha. Next Sunday the Union Pacific will discontinue passenger trains No. 7 and 8 west of here at Elko or between that point and Portland. This cuts down a mileage expense of 311 miles, and is the biggest retrenchment made in western railroad service since the commencement of the present financial stringency.
The Salt Lake City Street Railway company last evening laid off 50 men and four cars. The payroll of the entire Rio Grande Western system, including that of the street railway, was cut today from 10 to 20 percent and a number of officers and assistants in this city were discharged. The company today issued notice of cancellation of its wage scale agreement with the locomotive engineers and firemen.
PRIME IN HIGH PLACES It is not strange that some people do wrong through ignorance, others from a failure to investigate as to the right or wrong of a matter. But it is strange, that individuals and firms, who are fully aware of the rights of others, will persist in perpetrating frauds upon them. High-toned, wealthy manufacturing firms will offer and sell to retail merchants, articles which they know to be infringements on the rights of proprietors, and imitations of well-known goods. We want to sound a note of warning to the retailers to beware of such imitations and counterfeits of "CAUTION'S COLD, LYING PILLS." When they are offered to you, refuse them; you do not want to do wrong, and you don't want to lay yourself liable to a lawsuit. Benjamin Franklin said "Honesty is the best policy"; it is just as true that "Honesty is the nobest principle."

CniCAOO , J\UR. 1 The scnsrUlonal collapse
In wheat prices of Into W.IM eclipsed on tlio
Hoard of Trade today by a blgifeTtumblo In
provision values , caused by tlio failures of
the men who liavo been manipulating the
market forsomo months past , forkin which
trade for tv/o months past has been so
mcnrjro ns to scarcely furnish a point to liatu ?
quotations on , broKO Into activity this morn
ing. The price of September pork , which
ttns nomlally $19.35 nl the close of yesterday ,
dropped to 810.50 In the course of the first
hour's trading.
It was known among provision brokers on
curb before the market opened that thuro
would bo trouble In the pork pit. For sev
eral da > s tbo loading operator. In the pork
deal has been slow In putting up margins
and ns ho was credited with carrying some
60,000 bbls. of that commodity It was bo-
tiovcd to bo only a question of tlmo when the
irlngcncy would compel him to go. It was
at oiico seen tluij. ho had lost control.
After half an hour of the session had
passed Secretary Stone announced that J.
G. Stcever & Co. , E.V , llnlloy ft. Co. and A.
G , HolinholK , brokers for Wright , had or
dered their trades closed. It then became
( Imply a matter of consldor.Ulon as to what
was the price of pork measured by tlio
prlco of hogs. The trade appeared to settle
down to an opinion that somewhere in thu
neighborhood of $11 porbbl. was about what
It was worth.
Thu amount of business done was limited
compared with what inlu'ht have been ex
pected from such an enormous drop Invafuc ,
but the fact scums to have bean that there
was very little open interest In the market ,
ns the trallo had for months warned their
customers away from it. When trading
commenced the state of uncertainty was
such that an offer to buy 23 ) bbla. of Sep
tember porlc at $11) ) per bbl. met with no re-
ponso from sellers. The bid was imtncdl-
ntoly withdrawn , and the llrst transaction
was in' ' ( " ( ) bbls. a" . 18.75. The price then
dropped alvut 50c per bbl. on each fresh sale
down to $10. " "
The announcement of the failure of the
North American Packing company , a little
later , brought the price down to § 10.51) ) It re
covered to $11.75 , and then settled down
again to $11. Whllo pork was in the throes
of dissolution , lard and ribswero in compari
son well maintained. September lard
opened at ? ' . ) .75 and declined in sympathy
with the break in pork to $9.50. This llguro
It had recovered slightly , when at2X \ : > the
trade was suddenly paralyzed by the an
nouncement that all trades with John
Cudahy were ordered closed out. John
Cudahy. twelve moths ago , was rated as be
ing worth from $11,000,000 to $1,000,000 , con
sequently the shock was too much for the
traders'nerves and the prlco of September
lard tumbled from $ ' , ( .00 to $0 in two seconds
ends after the announcement , and ribs ,
which had not been so much mllated , de
clined at the same time from $0.07.JJ to $5.On.
Hog receipts wcro small , only H-,000 , head
havini ; been received , but the market for.
them was weak. Tomorrow's receipts wcro
estimated at 'JO.OOO head. Such matters ,
however , did not count for anything in
today's trading.
Prices stillened a little at the close.
September pork loft off at $12 ; September
lard nt fO.GO , and September ribs at $0.22 .
The wheat market opened with a boom.
September wheat found buyers at from G0c
to Olc , and , for a time , overfilling looked
favorable for a bull session. But the failures
which wcro announced from time to time
kept knocking the underpinning from the
market and linally the failureof John
Cudahy and that of Wright & Haughoy
completely upset all the-good of earlier bull
news and loft the market near the lowest
price for the day.
The foreign markets were llrmcr at the
opening. There wore numerous foreign
buy ing orders in the mark at. Today's fail
ures demoralized all the regular shipping
business and news of such a Kind was dis
regarded after the lirst few minutes of the
icssion. The local receipts were 80S cars.
Minneapolis and Duluth received 185 cars.
The export clearances from the four princi
pal Atlantic ports and Now Orleans
amounted to about 1,000,000 bu. , in wheat
and Hour. The price of September at the
opening was anywhere from liOf c to Olc. It
was down to OSiic live minutes before the
close of the market and wound up at OS c ,
or % c decline since yesterday.
Corn and oats were the green spots in an
nrid desert. They closed equal or higher
than on the day boforn , and there- was an
early nctivo tra lo , notwithstanding the de
moralization in the neighboring pits. The
fulled concerns were short of thcso two arti
cles , consequently prices were helped and
not weakened on the announcements of the
failures. September corn opened strong at
from Sib toWc : , sold as lo-vas H7'fe , and
recovered to ! lSc , closing at ! ) $ } " bid. The
local receipts numbered SOI clirs.
September oats sold off early from 23 ? c to
E2Jfc ( , but speedily recovered , soiling up to
EJSrfittytfo ( ! ! , and closed at sajfe. May closed
t 28e.
Froights.wcro slow and easy at from IJjfc
to 1 if for \vli at and lo for corn to IIufTiilo.

STOCKS AND 1JONOS.
Decidedly Improved Feeling , Developed on
tlio New York Uxrlmngc.
NBW YOUK , Aug. 1. There was n decid
edly improved feeling on the Stock exchange
and In financial circles generally this
morning , owing , chiefly to the unexpectedly
heavy cng.iiicmcuts of gold in London and
on the continent for .shipment to this side.
These , together with the scarcity of stocks
for delivery purposes , the low ratesfor
money on call and the very heavy exports of
grain induced purchases of stocks for both
the long find short accounts. Tlio bears
found it difllcult to cover and the result was
a sharp advance. American Tobacco rose
oper'cent , Manhattan , 5 per cent to 109 ;
General Klectric , 3 % per cent to 4:1 : % ; Sugar ;
3 } per cent to 03 ; American Cotton Oil ,
3 ; ' per cent to 2S % ; Big Four , % per cent
to.513 ; Chicago , Burlington it Quiucy , ! ! }
pir cent to 74 ; Chicago Gas , 1'tT per cent to
11J ; Lacltawanna , IJf per cent to 1MJ ! ;
Delaware & Hudson , 3' per cent to 109 ;
Lal < o Shore , 2 } per cent to 110 } ; Lead pre
ferred , 3 per cent to ffil ; New Jersey Central ,
1 % per cent to 00 , aud Western , 3 % per
cent to 75J .
During the afternoon the hears raided the
market on the Cudahy failure and reports of
probable further embarrassment in Chicago
tomorrow. The list was severely ham mercd
and u decline of 1 to 1 % per cent ensued.
There was no excitement , however , and the
dealings were on n comparatively small
scale. Manhattan fell 3 % per cent , to 105 > ;
American Cotton Oil , 3 % per cent , to 5 ; Bur
lington & Quincy , 2 ; per cent , to 71 % ; Chicago
cage Gas , ! ij | per cent , to 40 ; St. Puul , IJjf

to 54.5 ; Lackawanna , 3 } per cent , to 131 ;
General Electric. 3 % per cent , to 40J , nnd
Western Union , ! 3.f } per cent , to 73J . Specu
lation left off steady in tone.
NEW YOIIK , Aufe. 1 , The Post savs : Wall
street's future more than usually tonight
rollects the present possibilities of a radical
alteration in conditions. The gold under
way to us from London now exceeds 57,000-
000 aud the Bank of England is freely sell
ing to importers the American gold coin it
took from us last winter. Chicago's banks ,
following the wise example of New York in
stitutions , have combined to forward low-
priced grain to England against direct gold
importations , precisely ns our bunkers
last week started the movement by
the forwarding of low-priced stocks.
So tangible and certain a measure of relief
could hardly fail , in the nature of things , to
force u retreat among the speculators for the
decline. The heavy premiums ngain exacted
today for the loan of stocks rendered such
caution necessary.
Aside from this the gathering of congress
next Monday and the expectance.of a vigor
ous message from the president leaves wide
speculation as to the change in the panio
sentiment. The general sentiment expressed
nmong large capitalists is that the lot-King
up of money always ends with a stampede.
No prudent operator for lower prices will
leave his outstanding contracts heavy in the
face of such uncertainties ,
The following are the closing quotations
on the leading stocks on the New Yorlc
exchange today :

The mouth ol August -opens out with a
very fair run of stock of al ( kinds. For the
two days this week receipts foot up 5,704
cattle , 5,927 hogs aud 879 sheep , against 3,344
cattle , U,70C hogs and 79.J sheep Monday and
Tuesday of last week.
Tlio supply of cattle was fully 1,500 , lighter
than Monday , but nearly 500 heavier than a
week ago. There was little quotable
change iu the character of the
receipts and the market was
very little different from that of
Monday. Chicago was reported steady , and
with a fair demand from dressed befif
houses and some inquiry from speculative
shippers desirable beef grades met with a
ready sale at fully steady , occasionally
strong prices. Good to choice , 1,200 to 1V400-
Ib. beeves sold at from M.20 to $4.00 , anil fail-
to good l,0r > 0 to 1,200-lb. steers sold all the
way from $ a.5 up to $4.y5. Fair to good
grass westerns sold at from $ ; ! to & .3.J. On
the common and inferior grades the market
was uneven but weak. CnUlo hud to
bo pretty fat to sell at over fIJ.75
and common grass and short
fed stock sold down around $ , ' ) . ! ) and &J.50.
It was a dull , featureless market , but the
cattle Kept moving , and by Uio close tlio
beef cattio had about all been disposed of.
The cow market was steady to strong on
fair to choice stock , with sales at from $2 up
to ? 3. Common and canning grades sold
down to SI. The demand , hoivover , was
fair , and it did not take the twenty-live
loads' ' long to change bunds. Poor to very
good calves sold at from ? 1.50 to ? 4.50 , or
about steady prices. Fat bulls , oxen and
stags sold stronger at from 2.50 to 54 , but
tljo common grades , at from $1.25 to ? 2 , wcro
barely steady.
The feeder trade was rather dull and
prices shaded lower on account of the very
liberal offerings and the somewhat restricted
demand. Common to choice feeders sold at
from S2.25 to ? 3 , the bulk of the decent stocic
at around ? 2.50 to ? 2.76. Hoprcscutative

prices hero , mdthar did thu fact that thu ar
rivals for yesterday and today WTO much
smaller than UMIU ! . It Is doubtful If anything
short of u radical lo'iixutlon of the money
market will lielp the situation In cuttle. Al
though Mjurcely more thiin 5.00O imad arrived
It was with great dllllcully that litivors were
found for them. In prices of nutlve.s thuro
wus no Important change. Anything that hud
nny merit wits finally closed ut
nominally steady prices. Texans were
slroiiKur , scllbiK about , lOu higher than yeslor-
day and from 25c to 35u bl lior than at the
lowest tlmo last week , Tradlnt ; In natlvo
cattio was urlnclpally ut from * 1.75 to $2,75
for cows and liclfors mid ut from J3.05 to J4.75
for steers. Hales of Ti-xuns were gunurally at
from f 1.75 to 13.25. Westerns were nominal
at from if 1.50 to 14 , 25 , according ( ocjuallly.
Thu lies market was htruntt thin morning
when huiliioss opened. Hhlppor.s and packers
took hold with a show of Inlurcst that cuirlod
Ihu maruot up from DC to lOc. The activity
and firmness of the morning did not
last , however , lluforo ilO o'clock prices
foil back to about .Monday's range , and they
closed very weak thuru. I'ouvy und medium
welKhls "hlunml more strength than thu
lighter wulghls , but all were profoundly wouk
at the closo. The receipts were very mmill
( estimated at 10,000 lieadl , but thuro buumud
to bo enough fiirt hu dumnml , C'losliiK quota
tions wcro from { 5 to)5.40 for heavy mid from
J5.26 to t5 85 for light. The break In prices
was caused by thu IIOWK from on 'chungo.
Tlio fhcup niiirkot was firm by reason of tlio
Riuall reculpts , only about G.ooo head arriving.
Had thu arrivals reached avtruKo ll 'tirou
prices must liuva declined , for Ihu duinand

Enormous Drop in Pork the Feature on
"Chicago Yesterday ,
FIFTY PERCENT OFF AT THE CLOSE
John Oudnlijr Carried Down In the Corn
with Other Reliant Trailers
Peculiar case of the \ti\j In the
Provision Hlc. I
CHICAGO, JUR. 1 The sectional collapse
In wheat prices eclipsed on the
Board of Trade today by a bigger tumble in
provision values, caused by the failures of
the men who have been manipulating the
market for some months past, forging which
trade for some months past has been so
meager as to scarcely furnish a point to quote on, broke into activity this morning. The price of September pork, which normally $19.35 at the close of yesterday,
dropped to $10.50 in the course of the first
hour's trading.
It was known among provision brokers on
the curb before the market opened that there
would be trouble in the pork pit. For several days,
the loading operator in the pork pit has been slow in putting up margins
and as he was credited with carrying some
60,000 barrels of that commodity, it was believed to be only a question of time when the insolvenicy would compel him to go. It was at once seen that, he had lost control.
After half an hour of the session had
passed, Secretary Stone announced that J.
G. Steevers & Co., E.V, Holliday & Co., and A.
G, Holinholme, brokers for Wright, had ordered their trades closed. It then became
purely a matter of consideration as to what
was the price of pork measured by the
price of hogs. The trade appeared to settle
down to an opinion that somewhere in the
neighborhood of $11 per barrel was about what
it was worth.
The amount of business done was limited
compared with what might have been expected from such an enormous drop in value,
but the fact seems to have been that there
was very little open interest in the market,
as the trailers had for months warned their
customers away from it. When trading
commenced, the state of uncertainty was
such that an offer to buy 23 barrels of September pork at $11 per barrel met with no response from sellers. The bid was immediately withdrawn, and the first transaction was in ' ( " ( ) barrels at $18.75. The price then
dropped about 50 cents per barrel on each fresh sale
down to $10. " "
The announcement of the failure of the
North American Packing company, a little
later, brought the price down to $10.35 It recovered to $11.75, and then settled down
again to $11. While pork was in the throes
of dissolution, lard and ribs compared
well maintained. September lard
opened at $9.75 and declined in sympathy
with the break in pork to $9.50. This figure
it had recovered slightly, when at 2:30 the
trade was suddenly paralyzed by the announcement that all trades with John
Cudahy were ordered closed out. John
Cudahy, twelve months ago, was rated as being worth from $11,000,000 to $1,000,000, consequently the shock was too much for the
traders' nerves and the price of September
lard tumbled from $9.50 to $6 in two seconds
after the announcement, and ribs,
which had not been so much affected, declined at the same time from 50.07c to 50.05c.
Hog receipts were small, only 6,000 head
having been received, but the market for
them was weak. Tomorrow's receipts were
estimated at 20,000 head. Such matters,
however, did not count for anything in
today's trading.
Prices settled a little at the close.
September pork left off at $12; September
lard at $9.65, and September ribs at $0.22 .
The wheat market opened with a boom.
September wheat found buyers at from 60c
to 61c, and, for a time, overbought looked
favorable for a bull session. But the failures
which were announced from time to time
kept knocking the underpinning from the
market and finally the failure of John
Cudahy and that of Wright & Haughoy
completely upset all the good of earlier bullish
news and left the market near the lowest
price for the day.
The foreign markets were firmer at the
opening. There were numerous foreign
buying orders in the market. Today's failures demoralized all the regular shipping
business and news of such a kind was disregarded after the first few minutes of the
session. The local receipts were 680 cars.
Minneapolis and Duluth received 185 cars.
The export clearances from the four principal
Atlantic ports and New Orleans
amounted to about 1,000,000 bu., in wheat
and flour. The price of September at the
opening was anywhere from 60c to 61c. It
was down to 59c live minutes before the
close of the market and wound up at 59c,
or 1c decline since yesterday.
Corn and oats were the green spots in an
narrow desert. They closed equal or higher
than on the day before, and there was an
early active trade, notwithstanding the demoralization in the neighboring pits. The
failing concerns were short of these two articles,
consequently prices were helped and
not weakened on the announcements of the
failures. September corn opened strong at
from 60c to 61c; sold as low as 57c, and
recovered to 58c, closing at 51c, bid. The
local receipts numbered 540 cars.
September oats sold off early from 23c to
25c, but speedily recovered, selling up to
27c, and closed at 25c. May closed at 28c.
Freights were slow and easy at from 10c
to 11c for wheat and from 6c to 7c for corn to St. Louis.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
125 cars; corn, 210 cars; oats, 180 cars; hogs,
800,000 head.

STOCKS AND EXCHANGES.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1. There was a decidedly improved feeling on the Stock Exchange and in financial circles generally this morning, owing, chiefly to the unexpectedly heavy engagements of gold in London and on the continent for shipment to this side. These, together with the scarcity of stocks for delivery purposes, the low rates for money on call and the very heavy exports of grain induced purchases of stocks for both the long and short accounts. The bears found it difficult to cover and the result was a sharp advance. American Tobacco rose 5 percent, Manhattan, 5 percent to 109; General Electric, 3½ percent to 41½; Sugar, 3½ percent to 3c; American Cotton Oil, 3½ percent to 28½; Big Four, 2½ percent to 5¾; Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, 1½ percent to 74; Chicago Gas, 1½ percent to 41; Lackawanna, 2½ percent to 142½; Delaware & Hudson, 3½ percent to 109; Lake Shore, 2½ percent to 110½; Lead preferred, 3 percent to 5¾; New Jersey Central, 1½ percent to 60; Western, 3½ percent to 75½.
During the afternoon the bears raided the market on the Cudahy failure and reports of probable further embarrassment in Chicago tomorrow. The list was severely hammered and a decline of 1 to 1½ percent ensued. There was no excitement, however, and the dealings were on a comparatively small scale. Manhattan fell 3½ percent, to 105½; American Cotton Oil, 3½ percent, to 25; Burlington & Quincy, 2½ percent, to 71½; Chicago Gas, 2½ percent, to 40; St. Paul, 2½ percent, to 60½; Hock Island, 2½ percent, to 54½; Lackawanna, 3½ percent, to 131; General Electric, 3½ percent, to 40½, and Western Union, 3½ percent, to 73½. Speculation left off steady in tone.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1, The Post says: Wall Street's future more than usually tonight reflects the present possibilities of a radical alteration in conditions. The gold underway to us from London now exceeds 57,000,000 and the Bank of England is freely selling to importers the American gold coin it took from us last winter. Chicago's banks, following the wise example of New York institutions, have combined to forward low-priced grain to England against direct gold importations, precisely as our banks last week started the movement by the forwarding of low-priced stocks.
So tangible and certain a measure of relief could hardly fail, in the nature of things, to force a retreat among the speculators for the decline. The heavy premiums again exacted today for the loan of stocks rendered such caution necessary.
Aside from this, the gathering of Congress next Monday and the expectation of a vigorous message from the president leaves wide speculation as to the change in the public sentiment. The general sentiment expressed among large capitalists is that the gathering up of money always ends with a stampede. No prudent operator for lower prices will leave his outstanding contracts heavy in the face of such uncertainties.

Now YORK, Aug. 1. The Post's London cablegram says: Sovereigns and eighty-five thousand pounds in silver were sold by the Bank of England today and 190,000 sovereigns were taken out for the United States. In addition to this, nearly 200,000 sterling was bought in the English market for America. On the other hand, large amounts of gold are on the way here from Australia and elsewhere. The market constantly records the withdrawals for America with consistency. There was a general recovery in the stock market today, led by American railroad shares, which improved considerably on the gold exports. The same general depressed condition persists. Silver has risen to 32 1-10c, and is firm. German paper is unchanged.

(TUESDAY, Aug. 1.
The mouth of August opens out with a very fair run of stock of all kinds. For the two days this week receipts foot up 5,704 cattle, 5,927 hogs, and 879 sheep, against 3,344 cattle, 6,700 hogs, and 79,347 sheep Monday and Tuesday of last week.
The supply of cattle was fully 1,500, lighter than Monday, but nearly 500 heavier than a week ago. There was little quotable change in the character of the receipts and the market was very little different from that of Monday. Chicago was reported steady, and with a fair demand from dressed beef houses and some inquiry from speculative shippers, desirable beef grades met with a ready sale at fully steady, occasionally strong prices. Good to choice, 1,200 to 1,400-lb. beeves sold at from $3.20 to $4.00, and fair-to-good 1,000 to 1,200-lb. steers sold all the way from $3.50 up to $4.75. Fair to good grass westerns sold at from $2.50 to $3.50. On the common and inferior grades the market was uneven but weak. California had to be pretty fat to sell at over $5.75 and common grass and short-fed stock sold down around $3.50 and $3.50.
It was a dull, featureless market, but the cattle kept moving, and by the close the beef cattle had about all been disposed of. The cow market was steady to strong on fair to choice stock, with sales at from $2 up to $3. Common and canning grades sold down to $1. The demand, however, was fair, and it did not take twenty-five loads' time to change hands. Poor to very good calves sold at from $1.50 to $4.50, or about steady prices. Fat bulls, oxen, and stags sold stronger at from $2.50 to $4, but the common grades, at from $1.25 to $2, were barely steady.
The feeder trade was rather dull and prices shaded lower on account of the very liberal offerings and the somewhat restricted demand. Common to choice feeders sold at from $2.25 to $3, the bulk of the decent stock at around $2.50 to $2.76. Representative sales:

Hogs receipts were rather lighter than anticipated. But 67 fresh loads were received, 4,400 (head, or more than 2,500) head short of last Wednesday's supply. The quality of the hogs was hardly as good as two or three weeks ago and this fact together with the better demand for the lighter grades, is causing a pretty wide spread in hogs compared with a month ago. The market was about steady, perhaps a shade better than Monday, but the conditions were unchanged and the tone to the market was by no means strong. Fair to prime sort, light and huskier weight hogs sold at from $5.00 up to $6.00. In order to sell a load of hogs at better than $6.00, it was necessary in most cases to throw out from one to a dozen hogs which had to sell around $1.80 to $1.85. Heavy and mixed packing grades sold at from $1.50 to $2.00, packers being indifferent buyers and leaving the field mostly to the fresh meat men and shippers. There was little life to the trade at any time during the day, but when news arrived of the crash in provisions the market livened up a little and at the close there were fully 1,000 hogs in the yards on which buyers refused to make a bid.

[Special Telegraph to THE DISPATCH.] The advance yesterday in the beef market in London did not help prices here, and neither did the fact that the arrivals for yesterday and today were much smaller than usual. It is doubtful if anything short of a radical correction of the money market will help the situation in cattle. Although considerably more than 5,000 head arrived, it was with great difficulty that buyers were found for them. In prices of natives there was no important change. Anything that had any merit was finally closed at nominally steady prices. Texans were stronger, selling about 10@15 cents higher than yesterday and from 25 cents to 35 cents lower than at the lowest time last week. Trading in native cattle was mostly at from $1.75 to $2.75 for cows and heifers and at from $3.05 to $4.75 for steers. Sales of Texans were generally at from $1.75 to $3.25. Westerns were nominal at from $1.50 to $4.25, according to quality.

Hogs receipts were rather lighter than anticipated. But 67 fresh loads were received, 4,400 (head, or more than 2,500) head short of last Wednesday's supply. The quality of the hogs was hardly as good as two or three weeks ago and this fact together with the better demand for the lighter grades, is causing a pretty wide spread in hogs compared with a month ago. The market was about steady, perhaps a shade better than Monday, but the conditions were unchanged and the tone to the market was by no means strong. Fair to prime sort, light and huskier weight hogs sold at from $5.00 up to $6.00. In order to sell a load of hogs at better than $6.00, it was necessary in most cases to throw out from one to a dozen hogs which had to sell around $1.80 to $1.85. Heavy and mixed packing grades sold at from $1.50 to $2.00, packers being indifferent buyers and leaving the field mostly to the fresh meat men and shippers. There was little life to the trade at any time during the day, but when news arrived of the crash in provisions the market livened up a little and at the close there were fully 1,000 hogs in the yards on which buyers refused to make a bid. The popular price for fair to prime sales

The lively market was hunted thin morning when bustling opened. Packers and shipper took hold with a show of interest that caused the market to rouse from $5 to $10. The activity and firmness of the morning did not last, however, after 10 o'clock prices fell back to about $5.30. The receipts were very small (estimated at 10,000 heads), but there seemed to be enough to support the market. Cloasing quotations were from $5.40 for heavy and from $5.26 to $5.85 for light. The break in prices was caused by the hog market from on 'Chungong. The scrap market was firm by reason of the small receipts, only about 6,000 head arriving. Had the arrivals reached a stratospheric level, prices must have declined, for the demand was of shrunken proportions. The demand for shipment is inconsequential, only 600 head of the 14,004 head received yesterday being sold. Neither is there any inquiry for feeders. Prices ranged from $11.76 to $12.50 for inferior to extra qualities. Hogs of all kinds were sold at steady prices, from $3.50 to $9.75. Recelpts: 5,000 hogs, 1,600 cattle, 5,000 calves, 3,000 hogs.

"Was big, was patient, felt mean, took pills, took rest, got lean." Handsome women can lose fast. Homely women look better thin. Try Dr. Edison's system. No band worth twice the money. Dr. Edison's office of H.M. Burton, Barnaro. Ulysses, Kans. May 21, 1818. Dr. Edison Dear Sir: I am well pleased with your treatment of obesity. The band is worth twice the money it cost for comfort. I have reduced my weight from 215 pounds to 193 pounds, truly.
Mrs. S.S. Lively, O.C., Hossi, Ill. June 13. Dear Sirs: After hearing one of my friends talk about your Climency Pills I thought I would try them and I truly believe that I will see improvement after taking three bottles. Mrs. J. Mullins, 40 Terry Street.
Mrs. John, Sidney, Ill. Sept. 1. Dear Sir: I enclosed a bottle for which I will please you with the three bottles of Dr. Edison's Obesity Pills. After taking one bottle I saw great improvement and I truly believe that I will see more improvement after taking the third bottle very soon. Mrs. J. Shelton, 503 South 35th St.
Dr. Edison writes: "Many people well point out that in my experience, which is necessarily very considerable, many troubles, such as dyspepsia, constipation, piles, etc., are principally caused by obesity, and at the fat and rigid it relieves by the pills and Obesity Extract all. I do not know of any band that meets all. It has almost magically approved."
The Obesity Extract used in conjunction with the Pills, or both. One teaspoonful in a tumbler of water takes off a delicious soda. Many like chamomile tea.
The band costs $10.00 every four months from 31 to 35 inches, $11.50 for each additional inch, and 50 cents extra for each addition inch.
Price of Extract $10 per bottle, or $25 for three bottles, sent by mail or express.

DEATH OF A PIONEEB.
Ona of Umnlm'ii Old Tlmn Ncinpnpor Mrn
IHr In
Charles C. Collins , whoso death at Chicago
is announced iu Tim DEP.'S dispatches , was a
familiar character in Omaha twenty-live
years ngo , and later his fnme spread to every
town In the wost. Ho was ono of the old-
time printers tn this city and was an attacho
of the llurald nnd later ot the Kepubllcan ,
In ISO'J ' ho loft this city with a company of
printers nnd went to Sioux City , .whore ho
founded the Daily Times as n morning paper.
This was the llrst dally paper In Sioux City.
years , when the daily edition was dropped
and the paper was continued as a weekly.
Mr. Collins went to the Black Hills in the
early days of the mining excitement , nnd in
1STT published the Hlack Hills Champion in
a tent and booth made of boards , at Deadwood -
wood , This was a ilally paper , and in spite
of its primitive surroundings had the full
stuff of a dally newspaper In the cities.
From Deadwood Mr. Collins wont to Uis-
marck , where h < f established a paper , and
from there wont to IJrulo , under the impres
sion that this would bo the terminus of the
railroad. At llrulo ho published n paper
until the railroad disappointed him by end
ing at Chamberlain , and then ho cave up
pioneer Journalism to go to Ireland as an im
migration commissioner for the Chicago ,
Milwaukee it St. Paul railroad.
Upon his return to Sioux City from Ire
land in the early autumn of 1881 Mr. Collins
found that Watkins & Jay were about to
issue the ilrst number of a now evening
paper to bo called the Daily News. Charlie
thought if it was a good year for daily news
papers in Sioux City ho might as well be in
it , and on the evening when the News made
its llrst appearance on the streets there
wore moro newsboys and louder-voiced ones
on the street shouting "Sioux City Evening
Times. " "With that enterprise and com
plete lack of ceremony for which Charlie
Collins was famous , ho had revived the
Daily Times of other days , beginning with
the volume ami number where It left off
In 1ST1 ! , and printing the paper as if not a
day had intervened between the Times ol
other days and this new-born rival of the
News.
Mr. Collins had , in n llttlo , narrow brick
building , a hand press and a lot of typo ,
which ho hud used In his Dakota ventures ,
and which had at one time reposed in the
mud at the bottom of the Missouri river , in
consequence of a steamboat accident. The
llrst number of the new dully was not lariro
but it was Colllnsesiiuo. Its oai tor was the
most enterprising , the most energetic , the
most ubiquitous nnd , withal , the most nervous
vous man ever known in Sioux City
The Times made money from the
start. With the onergotiu managemen
of Charlie Collins and the wise
government of his wife the business Hour
shod and the Times was successively on
largcd.
Charlie Collins , always of a nervous , excitable
citablo temperament , was seriously injurci
in the head by an assault , and it became
necessary for him to have a change of scene
and climate. With his wlfo he emigrated to
California nnd'arrlved in that country In the
heyday of the boom. Fortunate invest
mcnts in real estate gave Mr. and Mrs
Collins n comfortable little fortune , and for
some time there was great Improvement in
Mr. Collins' health. For the last two years
however , ho hns boon falling , and ho was
taken to Chicago for treatment by Dr
O'Connell.
Charlie Collins was full of eccentricities
but most of them wore lovable ones. Hardly
an "old timer" in Omaha , unless ho was i
wrong door , but will have a pleasant nnd i
warm thought for Charlie Collins. Ho was
not politic. In the conduct of bis uowspnpe
he wielded his pen in the same way hi
wielded the huge bread knlCo with which ho
used to cut paper. In journalism Charlie
Collins was an Irishman through am
through. Whenever ho sawn bead ho hit it
If the action of the city council did no
please him he said so , Ho sometimes ex
pressed doubts of men's honesty , but nuhod.\
sued him for libel. The kind of suits whtcl I
people brought against Charles Collins ' I
wore suits with brickbats , nnd ttiat is the
It In a of a newspaper man ho was. It was
these suits of his'ml their results which
killed him. Ho wiis a conspicuous typo of
the pioneer western newspaper man , in
whom wore intermingled many of the char
acteristics of his nationality ,

Whllo It U generally ngropd that all rail

uloptod by Hon. J. M. Woohvorlh and the

When President Hughitt was Informed oy
holograph of the unexpected action of Mr.
\\oolworlh In filing his petition for n tempo
rary injunction and its Issuance by the
courts , his ilrst dcslro was to see Just what
the long petitioner Jmlgo Wool worth con-
taiocd , and calling about him his closest
officials they ciitno to Omaha for Iho purpose
or reading over Iho whoto of ihn aoilon
bocun on Hie part of the stockholders.
1 ho action of George- Smith In signing the
imtltion for a temporary Injunction on the
part of the Northwestern stockholders , in
cluding the Omaha nnd Klkhorn Valley
roads , was not largely commended.
\ \ hen the Iowa law wont into effect giving
the commissioners In thai slate power to re
duce rates there were like penalties aUauhed
\ * in the Nebraska rate law. The North
western system was hardest hit by this law ,
and it sought to have it declared utuistl-
tulioiial on Hie ground that it was contlsca-
tory and therefore prejudicial lo the aim nnd
abject of Iho const tuition. But the court
liold that as the reduction was only about
U per cent and thai Iho road had nol
shown il would bo damaged to any exlcnt
should Iho law lake its course ho holds thn
act conslitutlonal. During all Ihis limo
penalties and damages wore pillns up
against the Northwestern which gave Pres
ident Hughitt moro genuine trouble than
the operation of the law could over do.
Some of the damages wore paid , some dis
missed , bul there was a wholesome lesson
in it and President Hughitt said ho wjuld
never bo caught in tliat position again.
WoultrorthVoiiltl Not Walt.
After making as good a light as possible to
defeat the maximum rate law in the legisla
ture , and after its passage and signature by
the governor , tlio cnnsorvalivo head of Iho
Northwestern system gave orders tluil llio
bill should be pul In force on Iho systems
which are ; t part of the Northwestern , and
the heads of departments proceeded to exe
cute the mandates of the chief. Right or
wrong , the law was to bo trloil on its merits ,
on thogrounu that an actual loss in earnings
would bo stronger to n court of equity Ihan
suppositions leases. But without oven so
much as "ly your leave , " Chancellor Woolworth -
worth began his proceeding 'Of Saturday , to
the consternation of the Klkhorn people.
Were it not In direct violation of the
federal court the Klkhorn people would un
doubtedly put in the rates as made bv tha
lust legislature , believing that the pboplo
would move for redress sooner Ihan Iho
railroads and the latter would have the In
tense satisfaction of proving themselves not
brigands , but law-observing bodies.
In talking to a well known ntlornovycslor-
day morning regarding the probable liofenso
that could bo made by those looking after
the Interests of the commonwealth , lie said
thai ono line of _ procedure would bo Iho
lack of Jurisdiction on Iho part of Iho court
issuing Ihu restraining order. "Should Ibis
question bo decided In favor of tlio stale
that , the court had no Jurisdiction , then a
moil interesting legal problem would arise ,
what of thu
damages and penalties as pro
vided by the bill for Iho nonuiiforcomunt of
the law ? "
"Many eminent lawyers , " continued the
attorney , "contend that the moment tlio
question of Jurisdiction is settled damages
and penalties attai-h which naltirally
would cost the railroads considerable money.
"On the other hand the railroads rely for
their ammunition on the Minnesota milk
case found in 1U ! United States. In that
code the legislature passed a law making u
milk rate of'JJ cents per hundred , whijroas
It had been : i cents per hundred. The
railroads continued lo charge the old
rate and I think a shipper brought
suit.The supreme court of the
state hold that the legislature could pass
any law that was not conspiratorv in its
character , and without allowing the
railroads to show whether Iho rate was Just
or unjust , gave judgment for the shipper.
The supreme court , however , In Its opinion
said that article xlv of the constitution ap
plied to railroads as well as [ individuals , ami
reversed the decision of the state court.
This and a Mlimesnln switching case are Iho
mainstays of the railroads , "

NEBRASKA WEATHER CONDITIONS
Report of the Western Service More Encouraging than Last Week.
RAINS HAVE MADE BRIGHT PROSPECTS
Significant Improvement in the Condition of
Corn, only Oats and Potatoes
Suffer from the Drought
Eastern Nebraska has experienced good rains since the issue of the last bulletin; the temperature has been normal with ample sunshine, which have greatly benefited the corn crop, many correspondents claiming that even without any more moisture crops are now assured. Potatoes, meadows, and the wild hay crop have also been greatly improved, while reports concerning oats and potatoes continue gloomy, rust having seriously damaged the first crop, and the latter, especially the late crop, are very inferior and in some localities almost an entire failure.
Wheat harvesting is about completed, except in the northern counties. Threshing is general in the central and southeastern portions of the state, yielding from six to eighteen bushels per acre. The late rains have put the ground in good condition for fall plowing and farmers in the southeastern section have already begun preparations for winter planting.
Southeast Section.
Butler County: Rains of past week very beneficial to corn; potatoes will be a light crop; oats about a half crop.
Clay County: Corn benefited by the rains of the week, and wild hay improved; potatoes are fair in quality and more abundant than required for home consumption.
Gage County: Some places of corn injured by drought, but most of it saved by rain; oats yielding eight to twenty bushels and wheat twelve to fifteen percent.
Hamilton County: The rains of the past week have done some good, but needs more.
Jefferson County: Recent rains have saved the corn, which will be a good crop; also late potatoes.
Johnson County: Corn doing finely; pastures and meadows improved; peach and grape crops promise well.
Lancaster County: Heavy rain, and corn is doing well.
Curtis County: Corn greatly benefited by the rain; yield of oats very light.
Polk County: Corn in good condition; threshing in progress; wheat yields from seven to twenty bushels per acre.
Pawnee County: Rains all over the county good for corn and millet; early potatoes, a fair crop; late potatoes poor; fall plowing begun.
Seward County: Several good showers that have improved the corn, but it cannot recover from drought entirely; potatoes will be a poor crop.
Thayer County: Corn damaged a quarter by dry, hot weather.
York County: Corn is just beginning to ear and will fall considerably below a full crop; oats threshed an average of twelve bushels per acre.
Northwest Section.
Antelope County: Corn doing well; potatoes promise a fair crop; small grain badly injured by rust.
Cuming County: Early potatoes poor prospect, good for late; corn above the average.
Colfax County: Corn in good condition; small grain much injured by rust.
Dodge County: Drouth of July gave corn a good chance to make a crop; oats very light.
Washington County: Corn remains good; grasshoppers injuring small grain and potatoes.
Wayne County: Corn doing fine; potatoes about 80 percent of a crop.
Central Section.
Buffalo County: The showers very beneficial to corn. Winter wheat averaged about thirteen bushels per acre.
Dawson County: Late planted corn not making good headway. Potatoes very light crop. More rain needed.
Sherman County: Oats and wheat not half a crop. Corn badly damaged and needs rain. Potatoes -very poor.
Southwest Section.
Adams County: The dry weather has probably damaged the corn crop to bushels per acre.
Dundy County: Broom corn in excellent condition. Some hopes of a half a corn crop.
Franklin County: Corn in good condition. Potatoes a fair crop. Oats light.
Furnas County: Chinch bugs have injured corn some. Corn prospect improved materially by the rains of the week.
Huron County: Early corn much injured by drought; potatoes in fair condition; wheat yields four to six bushels and oats twelve to fifteen bushels per acre.
Hitchcock County: Corn much injured by drought; potatoes nearly a failure. Harvest well under way, yield about one-tenth of an average crop.
Kearney County: Corn is now assured, a full normal crop; winter wheat still a good crop, but good quality.
Platte County: The rains have been in time to save much corn and will give a fair crop of potatoes.
Webster County: Showers have improved corn, but more rain needed; winter wheat yielded three to eighteen bushels per acre, generally about eight bushels.
Northeast Section.
Cherry County: Corn and potatoes need rain.
Scotts Bluff County: Showers of the week did much good, but came too late to help small grain. Harvest has begun.
Thomas County: Two days of hot weather have injured the corn much.
Crop Notes,
Laurel Advocate: The heavy population in the Logan Valley is being reported all over the country by travelers and newspapers, and is being the means of bringing in a good many seeking good investments in farm lands and town property. We expect to nearly double our population in the next six months.
North Platte Argus: J.H. Hall, of the hemp company, was exhibiting a dozen stalks of hemp grown south of the mill this Reason that averaged a measurement of twelve feet. The stalks were of a size to be easily and conveniently handled and indicated a strong fiber. The hemp crop in this vicinity this season is very good.
Blair Courier: Mr. P.J. Gossan informs us that there is a considerable loss in oats owing to the immense crop of native grasshoppers this year. He pronounces them native to distinguish them from the wild and migratory grasshoppers that we had about twenty years ago. His oats are short, about ten bushels to the acre, owing to this cause.
Superior Journal: Now wheat is coming to market and selling at from 35 to 40 cents according to quality. The yield is very light, generally, but light as it is, it is beyond the expectations of two months ago. One field of sixty acres near Hardy ran ten bushels to the acre. The Nelson Gazette reports a field of 160 acres west of that place that yielded bushels to the acre.
North Platte Tribune: J. L. McAllister, who lives in this county just north of Maywood, was in town yesterday and asked in regard to crops, said corn had not suffered much for want of rain and with favorable weather in the future would indicate a big crop. One farmer in his section had cut a sixty-acre field of winter wheat which he thought would average fifteen bushels to the acre, and there were many other fields which would yield almost as much.
Nebraska City News; William Urlcknell, who has been spending the summer with his son, seven miles north of Dunbar, was in the city today and says the stand of corn is simply wonderful. Wheat, however, will not sois over twelve bushels to the acre, and oats have been greatly damaged by native grasshoppers, John Dunbar, he says, has a field of sixty acres of oats that has been stripped by the pests so that it will not even make good straw.
Iowa Crop Bulletin. Des MOINES, Aug. 1. The crop bulletin says: The average temperature the past week has been slightly above normal except in a few localities. The rainfall was deficient and drouth conditions prevail over a large part of the state. Corn is doing nicely well, however. No reports of serious damage have been received. Most of the correspondents report condition of 100 or over. The week is favorable for harvesting, and except in the northern districts the bulk of small grain is secure. Nearly all reports show heavy injury to oats by rust. The indications are that the state will not produce over two-thirds an average crop. All immature crops need rain.
Omaha Daily News. From the Washington D.C. Office on the Crop Situation. WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. The weekly crop statement of the weather bureau says: The weather for the past week has probably resulted in a general improvement of crops in the east, Gulf, and South Atlantic states. Texas and Arkansas report more unfavorable conditions, owing to a continued drouth in many directions. On the Pacific coast the weather was especially favorable for all crops in Oregon and Washington. Showers over the northern part of Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico have greatly improved grass on cattle ranges. New England has about finished; corn is doing well. Iowa Corn promising; oats generally harvested and a very light yield. North Dakota Grain is generally needed; some barley is being cut; wheat is holding out fairly well; corn, potatoes, and flax are good. South Dakota Wheat and oats harvesting general, with favorable weather; grain ripening very rapidly. Corn and flax are especially benefited by showers.
Nebraska Showers have been general and very beneficial to corn, which is slightly injured by drouth, especially in western portions; harvesting progressing rapidly. Kansas Abundant rains in northern and light rains in southern counties; greatly improving corn, which promises an immense crop in eastern portion.
The people quickly recognize merit, and this is the reason the sales of Hood's Sarsaparilla are continually increasing. Try it.
DEATH OF A PIONEER. One of Omaha's Old Time News Men Dies In Chicago, Charles C. Collins, whose death at Chicago is announced in The DEP.'S dispatches, was a familiar character in Omaha twenty-five years ago, and later his fame spread to every town in the west. He was one of the old-time printers in this city and was an attaché of the Daily News and later of the Republican, In 1873, he left this city with a company of printers and went to Sioux City, where he founded the Daily Times as a morning paper. This was the first daily paper in Sioux City. Years later, when the daily edition was dropped and the paper was continued as a weekly, Mr. Collins went to the Black Hills in the early days of the mining excitement, and in 1874 published the Black Hills Champion in a tent and booth made of boards, at Deadwood. This was a daily paper, and in spite of its primitive surroundings had the full stuff of a daily newspaper in the cities. From Deadwood, Mr. Collins went to Bismarck, where he established a paper, and from there went to Rapid City, under the impression that this would be the terminus of the railroad. At Rapid City, he published a paper until the railroad disappointed him by ending at Chamberlain, and then he gave up pioneer journalism to go to Ireland as an immigration commissioner for the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad.
Upon his return to Sioux City from Ireland in the early autumn of 1881, Mr. Collins found that Watkins & Jay were about to issue the first number of a new evening paper to be called the Daily News. Charlie thought if it was a good year for daily newspapers in Sioux City, he might as well be in it, and on the evening when the News made its first appearance on the streets there were more newsboys and louder-voiced ones on the street shouting "Sioux City Evening Times." With that enterprise and complete lack of ceremony for which Charlie Collins was famous, he had revived the Daily Times of other days, beginning with the volume and number where it left off in 1873, and printing the paper as if not a day had intervened between the Times of other days and this new-born rival of the News.
Mr. Collins had, in a little, narrow brick building, a hand press and a lot of type, which he had used in his Dakota ventures, and which had at one time reposed in the mud at the bottom of the Missouri river, in consequence of a steamboat accident. The first number of the new daily was not large but it was Collinsesque. Its editor was the most enterprising, the most energetic, the most ubiquitous and, withal, the most nervous man ever known in Sioux City.
The Times made money from the start. With the unconventional management of Charlie Collins and the wise government of his wife, the business flourished and the Times was successively enlarged.
Charlie Collins, always of a nervous, excitable, choleric temperament, was seriously injured in the head by an assault, and it became necessary for him to have a change of scene and climate. With his wife, he emigrated to California and arrived in that country in the heyday of the boom. Fortunate investments in real estate gave Mr. and Mrs. Collins a comfortable little fortune, and for some time there was great improvement in Mr. Collins' health. For the last two years, however, he has been failing, and he was taken to Chicago for treatment by Dr. O'Connell.
Charlie Collins was full of eccentricities but most of them were lovable ones. Hardly an "old timer" in Omaha, unless he was at the wrong door, but will have a pleasant and warm thought for Charlie Collins. He was not political. In the conduct of his newspaper, he wielded his pen in the same way he wielded the huge bread knife with which he used to cut paper. In journalism, Charlie Collins was an Irishman through and through. Whenever he saw an head, he hit it. If the action of the city council did not please him, he said so. He sometimes expressed doubts of men's honesty, but nobody sued him for libel. The kind of suits which people brought against Charles Collins were suits with brickbats, and that is the lot of a newspaper man was he was.
These suits, and their results, killed him. He was a conspicuous type of the pioneer western newspaper man, in whom were intermingled many of the characteristics of his nationality.
Civil Service Examination, The semi-annual examination of applicants for positions in the Omaha post office under the civil service law took place today in the court room in the federal building.
Of the eighty who had full applications during the past six months, only twenty six turned on had for the examination, making a larger class than had ever appeared here for examination. The applicants are candidates for clerkships in the offices or for carriers' positions, the postal mail survey not being included in this branch. The examination was conducted under the personal supervision and direction of Miss Viola Coffin, secretary of the civil service examining board. The papers will go into the hands of the entire examining board for inspection and marking.
Hilli Bain the Dump.
Judge Scott did not give the Jones Street dump case a hearing yesterday morning. Counsel for the plaintiffs does not seem inclined to push the case very hard and agreed with Assistant City Attorney Cornish, by and with the consent of Judge Scott, to set the hearing at a later date, the same to be set by the attorneys.
Inasmuch as the city is still using the dump, Mr. Cornish will certainly not hurry the hearing, but thinks that it will be set for about two weeks hence.
Hilling of Robbery,
Since the wholesale robbery of Braun's, tailor shop, 515 North Sixteenth Street, last Friday night, the detectives have worked faithfully on the case and at noon yesterday their labors were rewarded. Five persons are now lodged in jail and the stolen bolts of cloth are piled up in the captain's room at headquarters. The prisoners are: Mrs. Gilmore and Mrs. Eva Thompson, two widows who live at Fifty-eighth and Harvard Street; Duck Keith, hack driver, base ball player and general tough; Mitch Fleming and Frank Koonoy.

HARRISON DOES NOT REIGN
All Railway Officials Are Not Happy Over Judge Dundy's Decision.
A CASE OF MR. HUGHITT'S OMAHA VISIT
Western Manitou to put the Northern into Effect and It Must be Enforced with the Department of Agriculture State of ART.
While it is generally agreed that all railroads have a common interest in attacking the constitutionality of the maximum rate bill, it is pretty well known that the methods adopted by Hon. J. M. Woolworth and the Lexington system do not meet the approval of all the roads.
But a resorting to federal "courts carries with it a power that is not to be ignored and so, rather than place themselves liable to arrest, a fine and jail sentence, the officials of all the railway systems except the Sioux Nation accept the situation as they find it.
The visit Monday of President Marvin highlighted of the Northwestern system, the able and brilliant representative of the Van Vorhees in the west. W. H. Newton, third vice president and general traffic manager of the Chicago & North Western, Hon. Thomas Wilson, counsel of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha, E. W. Winter, general manager of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Southern Pacific, and Hon. L. W. Haworth, general counsel of the Northwestern, to Omaha, and the long conference held with General Manager Hurt of the Elkhorn and Omaha Counsel Hawley, exhibited no little interest in rail iron circles, coming as they did) so soon after Judge Dundy's restraining order.
OMAHA AT ABOUT IT.
When President Hughitt was informed by telegraph of the unexpected action of Mr. Woolworth in filing his petition for a temporary injunction and its issuance by the courts, his first desire was to see just what the long petition Judge Woolworth contained, and calling about him his closest officials, they came to Omaha for the purpose of reading over the whole of the action becoming on the part of the stockholders.
The action of George Smith in signing the petition for a temporary injunction on the part of the Northwestern stockholders, including the Omaha and Elkhorn Valley roads, was not largely commended.
When the Iowa law went into effect giving the commissioners in that state power to reduce rates there were like penalties attached in the Nebraska rate law. The Northwestern system was hardest hit by this law, and it sought to have it declared unconstitutional on the ground that it was discriminatory and therefore prejudicial to the aim and objects of the constitution. But the court held that as the reduction was only about 10 percent and that the road had not shown it would be damaged to any extent should the law take its course, the holds the act constitutional. During all this time penalties and damages were piled up against the Northwestern which gave President Hughitt more genuine trouble than the operation of the law could ever do.
Some of the damages were paid, some dismissed, but there was a wholesome lesson in it and President Hughitt said he would never be caught in that position again.
Woolworth's Valley Not Yet.
After making as good a fight as possible to defeat the maximum rate law in the legislature, and after its passage and signature by the governor, the consignative head of the Northwestern system gave orders that the bill should be put in force on the systems which are a part of the Northwestern, and the heads of departments proceeded to execute the mandates of the chief. Right or wrong, the law was to be tried on its merits, on the ground that an actual loss in earnings would be stronger to a court of equity than suppositions leases. But without even so much as "by your leave," Chancellor Woolworth began his proceedings on Saturday, to the consternation of the Elkhorn people.
Were it not in direct violation of the federal court the Elkhorn people would undoubtedly put in the rates as made by the last legislature, believing that the people would move for redress sooner than the railroads and the latter would have the intense satisfaction of proving themselves not brigands, but law-observing bodies.
In talking to a well-known attorney yesterday morning regarding the probable defense that could be made by those looking after the interests of the commonwealth, he said that one line of procedure would be the lack of jurisdiction on the part of the court issuing the restraining order. "Should this question be decided in favor of the state that, the court had no jurisdiction, then a most interesting legal problem would arise, what of the damages and penalties as provided by the bill for the nonobservance of the law?"
"Many eminent lawyers," continued the attorney, "contend that the moment the question of jurisdiction is settled, damages and penalties attach which naturally would cost the railroads considerable money. "On the other hand, the railroads rely for their ammunition on the Minnesota milk case found in the United States Code. In that case the legislature passed a law making a milk rate of 30 cents per hundred, whereas it had been 10 cents per hundred. The railroads continued to charge the old rate and I think a shipper brought suit. The supreme court of the state held that the legislature could pass any law that was not conspiratory in its character, and without allowing the railroads to show whether the rate was just or unjust, gave judgment for the shipper. The supreme court, however, in its opinion said that article 44 of the constitution applied to railroads as well as to individuals, and reversed the decision of the state court.
This and a Minneapolis switching case are the mainstays of the railroads."
SOUTHERN STOCK EXCHANGE.
World's fair creates over their third dominical elevator <cl>. Mines.
Cincinnati, Aug. 1. World's fair rates on the southern routes appear to be becoming thoroughly demoralized. The Mobile and Ohio road has announced a $22 round-trip fare from Mobile to Chicago. This is a reduction of $20, the regular authorized round-trip fare being $53.30. Tickets permit a stop-over in St. Louis for eleven days, in addition to the Mobile to St. Louis fare, the Mobile and Ohio has arranged for weekly excursions to the fair from points on its line at one fare for the round trip, with return limits of fifteen days. Western Passenger association roads threaten to declare a boycott against the Mobile and Ohio if the rates are not at once withdrawn, and assurances given that they will not be put in again. All the western roads put the one-fare rate, $1, into effect, all over their lines today, and the people from the west will now be able to come to the fair considerably cheaper than they have heretofore done.
A call was issued today by Commissioner George R. Blanchard for a meeting of the general committee of the Central Trust Association to be held here next Tuesday for the purpose of considering a proposition to advance commodity rates generally through out the territory.

PULLMAN'S TAXES.

quired to Settle > llollii'iuoiioy.
The question of whether the Pullman
Palace Car company will escape the pay
ment Into the city treasury of several thou
sand dollars of personal delinquent taxes'
for several years back will probably soon bo
decided. The company failed to p.iy Its par-
sonal taxes to the city for 1850 , Ib87 , 188S
and ISS'J ' , as returned by the assessors , and
the total footed up about M5,000.
Several months agoupon , the advlco of the
city attorney , Treasurer Bolln took steps to
force the collection of the delinquent taxes.
Ho levied upon three p.ilaco cars belonging
to the coinp.mv , and held them for boveral
dayi > , pending the tlmohogavo not ice of sale.
In the meantime , Just previous to the day of
sale , the company's attorney ap
peared before .ludgo IJundy at Lincoln nnd
secured n temporary order restraining the
sale of the cars until the case could ho heard.
An order was alto issued ordering the re
lease of the cars the treasurer had tlod up in
the Union Pacific shops upon the company
paving Into court thu amount of disputed
taxes , This the company did , and secured
the release of the cats pending the hearing
of the caso.
Advices from Chlcagoaro to the effect that
the tailing of testimony in the cases will
commence today. City AttornoV Council is
there , and he has been served with an order

The old fees have expired and Inspector Hurst is hustling up the delinquents, who have not taken out new licenses. It is not within the mayor's power to grant an extension of time, and he is compelled to meet each request with a negative answer.

PULLMAN'S TAXES.
Proprietors Hint Sir George Will Not Settle Unless City Acts.
The question of whether the Pullman Palace Car company will escape the payment into the city treasury of several thousand dollars of personal delinquent taxes for several years back will probably soon be decided. The company failed to pay its personal taxes to the city for 1887, 1888, 1889, and 1890, as returned by the assessors, and the total footed up about $5,000.
Several months ago upon the advice of the city attorney, Treasurer Bell took steps to force the collection of the delinquent taxes. He levied upon three palace cars belonging to the company, and held them for several days, pending the time of sale. In the meantime, just previous to the day of sale, the company's attorney appeared before Judge Bundy at Lincoln and secured a temporary order restraining the sale of the cars until the case could be heard.
An order was also issued ordering the release of the cars the treasurer had had up in the Union Pacific shops upon the company paying into court the amount of disputed taxes, This the company did, and secured the release of the cars pending the hearing of the case.
Advices from Chicago are to the effect that the taking of testimony in the cases will commence today. City Attorney Council is there, and he has been served with an order to take testimony in the case, which is now pending in the United States circuit court. Mr. Council will examine all witnesses. He will return home the latter part of the week.

Held for Murder.
Coroner's Jury Hears the Evidence in the McGinn-McKenna Shooting Incident.
A coroner's jury heard the testimony in the McGinn-McKenna murder case at the morning yesterday forenoon and returned a verdict to the effect that Edward McKenna came to his death from the effects of a pistol shot fired by Bernard McGinn with intent to kill.
The testimony was as follows: L. H. Robins of 5817 North Twenty-fourth Street said that he heard McGinn swear at McKenna as the latter stepped from the car and saw McKenna start to run away.
McGinn followed had caught him on the corner of the sidewalk. McGinn drew a revolver and after saying "I'll shoot your heart out," fired the fatal shot. The murderer pointed the smoking revolver toward the witness as he started on a run for the weeds.
Charles H. Loir, 2324 Ames avenue, saw the struggle and the shooting. His testimony was the same as other eyewitnesses. Loar hurried to McKenna and raised him from the ground and asked, "Why did McGinn shoot?" "He had it in for me," answered the injured man. He saw McGinn draw the gun and flourish it at the crowd as if he intended to shoot. He started to follow McGinn, but stopped when McGinn told him to go back or he would get shot too.
The next witness was Fred A. Tripp, who was sitting on the porch at the Saratoga house. He heard some loud talk, saw the men struggling, and saw McGinn draw his revolver.
William McGee was on a passing motor and saw the shooting. He left the car and telephoned for the police and the doctors.
Miss Rhoda E. McCenzie, who lives at 1801 North Twenty-fourth street, was an eyewitness. She was on the car with McKenna and was just stepping off when McGinn walked over and spoke to McKenna. As the latter started across the street, McGinn followed, and after a short struggle, the shot was fired and McKenna fell. McGinn then ran. Several other witnesses testified to the same facts.
Drs. Impoy and Matthews, described the dead man's wounds and the post-mortem. The bullet, the doctors said, split on entering the left thigh and could not be found. The intestines were cut in seven places, and death was caused by peritonitis, the result of the gunshot wound. This ended the testimony and the jury brought in a verdict inside of ten minutes.
Busy people have no time, and sensitive people have no inclination to use pills that make them sick every time they take them. They have learned that the use of Do Witt's Little Cabbage Lungs does not interfere with their health by causing nauseous pain or griping. Thus, these little pills are perfect in action and result, regulating the stomach and bowels so that headaches, dizziness, and lassitude are prevented. They cleanse the blood, clear the complexion, and up the system. Health in that little follows.

FOR SHOOTING TO KILL.
Young Louis Goldberg on Trial for Wounding Alfred C. Patterson.
Louis A. Goldberg had a preliminary hearing in police court yesterday forenoon. He is charged with shooting Alfred C. Patterson with intent to kill on the night of July 14.
The state was represented by Assistant County Attorney Slabaugh and the defendant by T. J. Mahoney.
Patterson was the first witness and told how he, in company with George Shepherd, William Grimes, and John Brown, went into the saloon on the night of the 14th and asked to get change for a dollar. Continuing, the witness said: "A couple of women were standing at the end of the bar smoking cigarettes. I spoke to them and it seemed to anger Goldberg. He called me vile names and then ordered me out of the place. As I started to go, he grabbed a couple of beer bottles and threatened to strike me. Then he dropped the bottles and turned to the north end of the bar, opened a drawer, and took out a pistol. By this time I was near the middle of the bar. When Goldberg started toward me with the pistol, the women cried "Louis, don't," and put their hands to their ears. Louis told them to get out of the way, that he was going to kill me. The bartender took the revolver away from Goldberg and then he got a billiard cue and struck me on the left arm. Then I ran into the street and was shot."
Dr. Somers testified as to the treatment of Patterson and exhibited the bullet found in his body. Several other witnesses followed, and at 1 o'clock the state rested. The trial will be continued today.
After the state's evidence was all in, the attorney for the defendant declined to introduce his witnesses, and Goldberg was held to the district court in the sum of $2,500. Bail was furnished at once.
The Burlington Route will run a special excursion train from Omaha to Burlington beach (near Lincoln) on Sunday, August 9.

The scarcity of gold had nothing to do with

\Vo assert that the only remedy for the
purely metallic : financial troubles is to open
the mints of the nation to gold nnd silver
on equal terms at the old ratio of sixteen
pirts of silt or to ono of gold , wheneter
silver bullion can bo exchanged nt the mints
for legal tender silver dollars , worth 100
cents of that money. That llB'i ' , grains of

While wo urge tint Bitch roilts would

suniclrnt for us to know that a similar c.xso
can bo made in the price of every kind of

The resolutions continue proles ling
against the repeal of the Sherman act with
out the pass igo of a free coinage act , declar
ing that It would pluntro the country into
greater linanclal misery : declare that Its
maintenance , by bimetallism , at the ratio of
1(5 ( lo 1 will Increase our coniJicreo with all
the silver using countries of the world with
out decreasing it with the nations which buy
our raw m net ial , and will compel the adop
tion of bimetallism by the nations of Uuropn ;
asserts that the uresutit financial calamities
tire not due to the Sherman act , because the
same state uf iifTaits exists in all the gold
standaid countries ; that our trouble arises
from a contraction of thu currency ; that the
fact that the national currency wns not de
preciated shows that the distrust is not of
the government , but of the banks which pro-
clpltated ihls crisis on iho country in an
effort to control silver legislation , and po-
litcly asks the bankers to step aside and
irlve the masses n show.
For the considci.itlon of the convention ,
but not as a pirt of thu plntfoim , the com

"The committee further recommend that

CAMP LINCOI.V , Summon , Neb , Aug. 2.
[ Special toTuu lire J In his welcoming ad
dress .vestcrday Colonel Schuler , who is a
grlrzled ohl veteran , with a face beaming
with the milk of human kindness , said that
it was not the old suldlcts nh nc to whom ho
spoke , but to their vvlveis nnd daughters and
sons , whom ho considered old soldiers too , In
n way. Ho wanted everybody to feel that
they wore welcomed to Camp Lincoln , and
could pitch In heart ana soul and make the
most out of a good thing an occasion to
him of exceeding moro interest than the
irreat Wet Id's fair , now charming Its millions
of pcoplo at Chicago. Ho addc 1 that no ono
need have any feats of molestation from auy
source ; that stiiet mllltiry discipline was
enforced throughout the encampment ; thut
the guards weio always at their posts , ns
well as a goodly squad of police and deputy
sheriffs ; that they should all feel ns safe
as If they were In their own homos. He
consldcicd a reunion of the old soldiers a
sacicd thing , uud no place for anything but
thu exchange of goodwill and affection.
After thu colonel had retired , amid the
shouts \ of his old comrades , W. P. Conway ,
. . .
a private of the Ninety-fourth Illinois , nnd
a man who saw much thrilling service
with the Army of the Gulf , took the stand ,
and In an inimitable way sang "Undo Abe
Will do Huglu and do Fhio1 , " A darky melody
Unit fairly too1 : the big crowd by storm. Of
course , ho had to come again and ngaiii , nnd
his "Old Gtavbick" and "Marching Thiough
Georgia , " were ticats of a genuine kind.
The entire assemblage took part in cbor-s
of the latter song , and tlio vclumo of sound ,
as it arose from the shady grove , echoed far
away down the Republican's lovely valley.
Hurrah ! liurr.ihl ne bring thu jubilee ;
Hurrah ! hurrah ! for Ihu Hag thut made
jou fiee
So wo sang tlio chorus from Atlanta to the
sun ,
AMille we were in irchliiK through Georgia.
Those aio the lines that rekindle all the
latent tire in the old soldier's heart , make
his oits ! sparkle over again with thu bril
liancy of iouth , sends a tingling through his
nerves and sols his heart to bounding as no
lllgnt of otatory or sound of cjmbiil , diuui
and brass can evei do.
Thuio weio songs and short stoiles by
other old vetcians , but the tall Kansas man
had thu call , and he was obliged to favor
the crowd once more , and again just befoio
the closing of tbo ceremonies.
Tno Tntort ilnlnc Aililrossos.
The address of Prof. Andtons was a
flue ono , and held the crowd entapt through
out. Ho said this great reunion was very
suggestive of Iho incidents and principles of
our late civil war.
" 1 do not ask " ho "
you , said , "to dwell cn-
litcly upon the inestimable sacrifices of
thosodavs , but rather upon thu fact that
watfaio has been an important factor in
human ptogiess. Recount the intellectual
warf.uo which has led the race from the
daiktipss of the past to tbo glory and light of
the present. Recount the spiritual warfare
which has conducted the race fiom the
dangers of the p ist to the serene heights of
ficoconsiJonce Recount the military war
fare which has aided iu bteakingdowu thu
powers of mouarchy and biingingin free
representative gciveininont Ansvverim ; to
these Hues of warfare , tl-u race has matched
in tilumph fiom the land of bomlago. "
In his peroration Mi. Androtvs soared in
lofty realms , and the old soldicts and tlieit
ft lends attested to their appreciation in long ,
loud and vigoious chcots.
Colonel O. H. Coulter was the 1 ist spe ikor
intioduced , and he , too , made a hit. His ad
dress was moio of the niituio of a chat , easy ,
gtacoful and highly ontei talnin , about
cquulli bilanccd us to pathos and humor
Ho talked light at the old fellows iu blue in
a lunguige they all spoke ; told them things
they had piobabli ho ml a huncltcd limes
before ; made them laugh one moment and
draw their sleeves acioss their oiestho
next. Of coinso , when hugot throusli thoio
was an outbuist ofvheeis that must have
made his heart palpitate with the pleasing
feeling tlmt he was one of them His windup -
up was a unique one.
"If theio are any men in this great cro wd
of old vvaniors who went with Sherman to
the sea , let them stand up "
Asi \ by magic there wcro a couple of
bundled manlv forms , some of them bent
with ago ami decrepitude , iot clothed , despite -
spite nil this , iu the fullness of their manli
ness , standing In the aisles und among the
benches
"Ileio , my follow cltl/ons , " exclaimed the
facetious colonel , "is a fair s implo of the
chicken thieves of the Army of thu Cumber
land "
And then the old follows fairly howled in
ecslacy , shipping cich other on thu bick
and giasping bands , as if ihuy had just mot
after a p irting of a score of ye irs
Coloiiol < milter .Vftor llu.io Smith.
In a btiof interview'witn Colonel Coulter
on the probiblo notion of the Gland Aimy
of Iho Republl-j concerning Iho suspension of
pensions , he said. "Why , I believe that us a
body It will suicly take stops to test the

make this fellow come into com l

the cii.ind Army has
been too lenient in regard -

seitc'd liiesido and homo to piotcct the flag
fiom just such icbels as Hoke Smith , and if
they lenmln silent and passive under this
foul attack , I will think thu old fires of those
inumoraulo duvs have died out indeed , And
I might add th it there Is no bettor or more
appropriate plico than at just such reunions
as this , when thu slaiidcicd voluiaus are all
together , of giving voice to their sentiments ,
and It is to be hoped that this opportunity
will not bo allowed lo pass unimproved "

DENIES HIE STATE'S CLAIM
Receiver Haydsn of ths Oapitil National

NO STATE MONEY WAS EVER DEPOSITED
Strnngo Turn Tnkcu lit the .tiljtutmont of

nnd Atlurtiuji.
LIXCOI.V , Aug. 2 [ Special Telegram to
Tun Bbu. ] Uccelvor Haiden of the defunct
Capital National bank has gltcn terbal
notice to State Treasurer B irtlcy that the
claim of the stale for the amount of Its de
posit , something like t.Mrt.OOO , will not bo
allowed on the ground that the slate's
money had never been deposited In the bank ,
or that the bank had never got Hie benefit
of the money.
StaioTicasurerHartley asked Mr. Hn.vden
to glvohlm written notice of the decision.
This the receiver agreed to do as soon as
possible , but up to this evening it had not
found its way to the treasurer's ofllcc.
Hecelvor Ha.vdcn was seen by TUB BIT.
correspondent this evening , but was ex
tremely reticent lu regard to the subject.
Ho admitted that It was true
that ho hud decided not to allow the claim
of tba state , and that he was acting under
ndtico from the attorneys , Messrs Cobb &
Harvey and G. M Lambcitson. lie had
hoped to have placed n written opinion in
the hands of the state trcasuior befoto tlifs ,
but the absence of Mr L imbertson , w ho had
been called to Wisconsin by the death of .1
sister , had delated the matter. Ho pre-
feriod not to discuss the matter further.
llx-Treasurer Illll IK Not U'orrjliiir.
The question has boon raised ns to
whether this action upon the pait of the re
ceiver has not prejudiced the case of ox-
Treasurer Hill , who Is defendant in the suit
brought by Judge Wukolev on bahalf of Gov
ernor Crounso to recover the amount de
posited in the bank when it closed its doors.
The cx-treisurer wns seen ut his homo
by Tin : Br.is early this ov cuing. He stated
that ho had heard of the mailer onl.v this
aftctuoon , and that ho had talked with At-
torneis Cobb & Harvey In regard to the
matter. Thcv had assuted him. ho said ,
that no decision had as \et been
reached ; that iho attention of the
comptiollor of the currency had been con
sulted , and that oflleial had icfeired the
question bacit to the nttornu.v for tin opinion
The ox-Iteasuier knew nothing futthorNin
togaid lo Iho now matter , and did not show
any indications of uneasiness over the new
and unexpected developments in the case.
Ihe de.ision of liucolver Hat don not to
allow the stato's el ilm has also given a new
compileition to the case which is likely to
drac In suvetal pcoplo who have notup to
the picscnt time llgutcd prominently in the
muddle.
Itnlrir * u I'nrtliK'iit Point.
When Treasurer' Battlov assumed the
duties of hia onico
hciccclvcd fiom his pic-
docessor certificates of deposit on the
Capital National bink for over fciOO-
000 Those certificates woio deposited
in the bank the next day by .Deputy Tre.is-
urof Hartley to thb credit of the state treas
urer. Iho bank accepted- the cot tiflcates ,
credited the ontlro amount to the state
treasurer , opened a now account in n
now pass book and then destroyed
the certificates Treasurer Baitley stated
th.it ho felt that Wl7OOJ ! was too much to
keep on deposit in auv one bank , and with
the view of reducing it us speedily as possi
ble checked out something like $ -10,000
within the first few dais after bo
-had assumed his olllce It was this
extraordinary and unexpected demand of the
state tieasutct tliit precipitated the failure
of the Dank. Now the question has pie-
sented itself to sevoial prominent finan
ciers in Lincoln , how is Receiver
Havdon to trcit the $ IOOOJ piirt out on
checks signed by State Trcasuicr Butlei ?
If he holds that the st ito funds wore not Jo-
posllcd in tne bink and vet admits that the
bank recogni/od the state tieasuier's checks
to the extent of $ .10,000 , does he ptoposo to
consider the latter amout.t as an ovetdiaft
and attempt to collect it from the state
Ueasuier ?
This is the question asked by ono of the
Intel | estod parties , but It cannot be answered
until J the legal opinion of Kc-cclvcr H.i > den's
attorneys is given to the public.
Will Wiilt for VVrlltdii Nollcr.
State Treasurer Hartley s lid this evening
that It was clearly evident that the claims
of the stiito would bo ignored , nml that it
was perfectly safe to assume that the st.alo
would got n share of the receiver's dividends
only after u law suit. He could not say
what he should do in regard to thu matter
until ho had toeoived the written notice
fiom the receiver and could ascertain the
legal ground upon which the icceivor's de
cision was based.

When Judge Wnkeley , who Is counsel for
the state In the case against ovTieasuiet
Hill and hU bondsmen , was asked last evenIng -
Ing about the effect of the latest action nf f
the receiver on the case now pending in
coutt he said , ho had received no ptoviotis
Intimation of what the locoiver had done ,
but ho could not see how it would hutu any
effect on the case in any manner whatever ,
"It must bo understood , " ho Haul , "that
the state us a state , does not look to the
bank for that ti l,000 The state's 10o
sltion is that ox-Truasutcr Hill to-
cuivod the money nnd failed to cither
turn It over to his successor or to
pay It out Iu the way of proper disburse
ments lo settle the indebtedness of the
state. That is why the state has never
made a demand upon the bank for the money !
after the manner of regular depositor S.
rreasiuut-Uarlloy wanled this demand made ,
but I advised verj distinctly against it , ami
Governor Crounso and Attorney al
Hastings declined to make it. The to
has supposed and alleged that the money
was deposited as claimed , but it makes no
difTcienco to our case whether it was or not.
This assertion on the part of the lecelyor ,
that the money never was deposited , Is
something that I had not heard before. If
Captain Hill did not deposit it. that is his
lookout and not thu concern of the stato. If
lie did not dejwsit It he Is certainly liable
for the money , and if ho did deposit
it , ho unlawfully converted it to his own use
by so doing , and therefore embezzled it and
violated Ills bond , This has nil along been
the contention uf the auto , and this now
statement will uot change the situation
nt all.
Will Proceed Moulll ) .
Treasurer Bartloy has locc-ntly made a de
mand for iho money , und I suppose that la
w lint called forth the declaration on the
part of the receiver I hatonoldea whether
the money was deposited or ngt , but It la
curtain that there were certificates of de-posit
show ing that the money had been received
by the bank. There were a number of Irregularities
regularities practiced in connection with irhe
bank's paper , but I believe this Is the nisi
time that It has been alleged that the ex-
treasurer's certificates weiu bogus , JX10
claim heretofore hating been lhat Iho money
was actually deposited , but thut the bank's
books wore doctored so as to defraud the
bank and docolvo tbo directors and bink ox-
umlner. So far as this phako Is concerned IXny 1
can only say thai It will not causa any
chuiiKe of pluns or have any beating on iho
ca e. We have bocn ruled out of court
here on the giound of want of juris
diction , but thu case will bo doclcutod in . Is.he
supreme couil iu u fun duj , aud we look for
a ipecdy hearing , cxpeclintf a decision this

WHAT THE SILVERITES WANTED
Their Desires Expressed at the Chicago Convention Yesterday,
THEIR PLAINTS AND DEMANDS IN BRIEF:
"Call for Silver," Governor Wallace and Other Argue for the White Metal Convention's Act Joining the Directive
Holds Lively Oratory,
CHICAGO, Aug. 2 The silver contention resumed its session this morning. Owing to the inadequacy of the rooms used yesterday, it was decided to meet in Central Music Hall. However, owing to the standing outside the door this morning and insisting to open it until Senator Hill, ex-Congressman Symes and O.S. Thomas of Colorado guaranteed $100 per day rental, this was done, and the delegates (locked in) President Thurman called the convention to order.
The resolution of J.S. Dougherty of Texas, for the appointment of a committee of one from each state to devise a plan for impressing upon Congress and the people of the United States the impending peril, threatening ruin to material interests of which none have only had a form town rescued to the committee on resolutions after a discussion.
Ex-Senator Hill of Colorado addressed the convention on the silver question. His argument was chiefly based on statistics going to show that the adoption of a bimetallic standard in any country was invariably followed by decades of prosperity and depreciation. He said the difference between the value of gold and silver was now greater than ever before when the United States commission made its famous report, and no boundary can be set to the divergence that may be touched hereafter, especially if the foremost silver producing country in the world should lead herself to the attempt being made to establish a single gold standard.
The scarcity of gold had nothing to do with the present depression. The amount of money now locked up and hidden away was more than double the amount of gold now in circulation. The supposition that by repealing the Sherman act and thus bringing on us a great fall in the price of the metal, we could coerce Europe into a bimetallic league was a delusion. If we are driven by conspiracy to restore the single standard, we should by all means use silver. If we maintain our old price as a money metal by unlimited coinage, and if, under the force of circumstances over which we have no control, our gold should both depart away, we will still maintain the first position among the nations of the world and compel England, Germany, and France to at once adopt bimetallism.
In conclusion, he declared that if Western Europe persists in measures which raise the value of gold so it shall flow from us and we become a silver country, we will be compelled to a pitch of prosperity transcending all the past and West even the United States will be flung into an alliance of silver.
Resumed to the committee on resolutions, Congressman T.G. Newlands of Nevada followed in an address rationing congressional legislation on the silver question. England, he said, is the greatest gold-owning power in the world. We owe her $1,000,000,000, which she can call for any day if a draft of $1,600,000, if carefully made, worked out, and disbursed in this country, what would it do if she called for the whole lot?
The committee on resolutions this afternoon submitted a lengthy report. The preamble called bimetallism as ancient as human history, for certain more than 6,000 years, gold and silver came down through ages ruled in hand, those relations having varied but a few points in all that time, then almost intact through legislation; that no inanimate objects were named together and indissolubly united in the constitution of the United States as the money basis of this country, that in 1873, without the previous demand of any political party, and without public discussion, silver was struck off from the place it had occupied since the days of Abraham and Pharaoh, and under circumstances of such secrecy that A.G. Thurman, W.M. Clapp, S. Low, J.G. Blaine, then speaker of the house, James A. Garfield and other members of Congress voting for the bill, subsequently publicly declared they did not know until long afterward that such a great change had been made in the financial system, that debates in Congress show that the measure was partly ascribed to one man, Lord of London, a banker who, it is claimed, was sent from England by the moneyed classes of the old world to effect its passage and subsequently its destruction as an incorrect means, that President Grant, who signed the bill, declined long subsequently that he did not know it demonetized silver, that the object of this attack on silver was to diminish the purchasing power of gold, thus reducing the price of all commodities, testing enter in also impoverishing the teller and degrading mankind, that the awful consequences of this act are now upon the whole world.
In this time of unparalled distress, in the shadow of impending calamities beyond estimate, the farming industry of the people who inhabit one-third of the states of the republic has been stiffened down, prosperity values destroyed, and women compelled to work as from a pestilence. Every village, every town, hundreds have been thrown out of employment and compelled to eat the bread of charity or starve; the products of the industries, grain and livestock, have depreciated in price until production ceases to be profitable; the money of the country, having guaranteed to the business of the land, has guaranteed to the banks, while the people, illustrating the banks demand their deposits be hidden or sold; merchandise is going to the wall because the masses have not the funds to buy men necessities, and the movement of the great crops being caught in thousands a vast amount of cottonery, which the banks are unwilling to furnish.
In the midst of these conditions, the daily press is charging for the repeal of the Sherman act, although the immediate means to stop the issue of more than $100 million of money every month, ignoring the fact that to hold the balance between the debtor and the creditor fell upon the supply of coinage must increase with the increase of business. The growth of population is 2.5 percent every ten years, the increase of businesses is much greater.
Quelling from Pillar Men.
The price of silver quotes at length from the legislation of James G, Jame, Daniel Webster and Secretary Catlin in favor of bimetallism, and Hon. John Sherman on the issue of a dual coinage monetary constitution. The resolutions then say; There must be no compromise on this question. All legislation demonetizing silver and resulting in the coinage thereof must be immediately and completely repealed. An act establishing the coinage of the country to the conditions established by the founders of the nation, which continued for eighty years without complaint from any part of our people. Every hour's delay in undoing that disastrous work of King Edward and our forefathers is an insult to the dignity of the American people, a crushing burden on their prosperity and an attempt to place us again under the rule from which George and his compatriots rescued us. We protest against the financial policy of the United States being dependent on the opinion or policies of any foreign nation, and under the power of his nation to stand on its own feet and legislate for itself upon all subjects.
Only humanity for the people. We assert that the only remedy for the purely metallic financial troubles is to open the mints of the nation to gold and silver on equal terms at the old ratio of sixteen parts of silver to one of gold, whether silver bullion can be exchanged at the mints for legal tender silver dollars, worth 100 cents of that money. That 400 grains of standard silver be worth 100 cents, and as commerce equalizes the prices of all commodities throughout the world, whenever 400 grains of standard silver is worth 100 cents in the United States they shall be worth that everywhere else and cannot be bought for less.
While we urge that the rich results would enhance the price of silver bullion, it is sufficient for us to know that a similar effect can be made in the price of every kind of property, except government credit. In the civilized world, and it would be a shallow and selfish class that would deny it to the mining industries at the cost of bankruptcy to the whole people. Legislation to demonetize silver has given an unjust incentive to the value of gold at a cost of the prosperity of mankind, wheat and all other agricultural products that have ridden side by side with silver.
Want the Sherman Act to Stand.
The resolutions continue protesting against the repeal of the Sherman Act without the passage of a free coinage act, declaring that it would plunge the country into greater financial misery: declare that its maintenance, by bimetallism, at the ratio of 16 to 1 will increase our commerce with all the silver using countries of the world without decreasing it with the nations which buy our raw materials, and will compel the adoption of bimetallism by the nations of Europe; asserts that the recent financial calamities are not due to the Sherman Act, because the same state of affairs exists in all the gold standard countries; that our trouble arises from a contraction of the currency; that the fact that the national currency was not devalued shows that the distrust is not of the government, but of the banks which precipitated this crisis on the country in an effort to control silver legislation, and politically asks the bankers to step aside and give the masses a show.
For the consideration of the convention, but not as a part of the platform, the committee also reported the following, which was unanimously adopted;
"The committee further recommend that this convention immediately appoint a committee, composed of one member from each state and territory to be selected by the respective delegations, to act in conjunction with the American National Bimetallist League, to devise a plan and to provide ways and means for impressing upon Congress and the people the impending perils from the final demonetization of silver and the adoption of a single gold standard."
On motion of Mr. Hagan the resolutions were adopted by acclamation.
Appointed Ways and Means Committee.
The following gentlemen were reported by the various state delegations as the committee on ways and means. Alabama, J.C. Mann; Arizona, J. Sherman; California, C. Hirsch; Connecticut, Joseph Sheldon; Colorado, N.P. Hill; District of Columbia, L. Randall; Florida, O. Richardson; Indiana, L. Templeton, in the, G.V. Bryant; Illinois, C.G. Dickson; Iowa, A. Von Vanghel; Kansas, Charles Hatton; Kentucky, George McCormack; Nevada, Thomas Wien; Massachusetts, G.F. Washburn; Montana, W.A. Clark; Michigan, A.L. Haugneyer; Minnesota, Ignatius Donnelly; Missouri, K.V. Guide; New Mexico, Jacob Gifford; North Dakota, Willis L. Bitney; South Carolina, F.H. Stanton; Pennsylvania, Victor A. Miller; Ohio, Allen W.

Campbell; Nebraska, Paul Vandeventer; New York, C.H. Maddis.
The first speaker of the afternoon session was John J. Lemmon of New York, representing the executive council of the American Federation of Labor. He read a telegram which authorized him to attend the convention to express the sentiments of the trades unionists of the American Federation of Labor upon the silver question. He said that half a million of federation men were advocates of the free and unlimited coinage of silver. [Applause]
Interior also stated that Appoint in Precinct.
There was tremendous applause when Governor Wallace of Colorado was introduced as the next speaker. A number of enthusiastic delegates had been hoping for two days for Wallace and when the chief executive of the Centennial state mounted the platform, their cup of joy overflowed. Cheers after cheers was given by delegates who stood up and waived their hats wildly and the ovation was terminated with "Three cheers for Governor Wallace!" Governor Wallace spoke at great length. He asserted that since no congress has convened, but that a majority in both houses were in favor of testing the free coinage of silver, Congress, he continued, never has been able to enact such a law because the president, whether Republican or Democrat, has always been controlled by Wall Street and stood ready to veto congressional legislation and nothing else has induced the price of silver bullion from $1 to 70 cents in 1891, and legislation for which the two old parties are equally responsible, and reduced the price of wheat in the same time from $1 per bushel to 75 cents. The same legislation has also reduced the price of cotton from 12 cents to 8 cents. In the same time, the ratio value of silver as bullion, compared with gold, has been increased from 1 to 16 to 1 to 1. It has not only diminished the value of silver bullion, but also diminished in almost the same proportion the value of wheat, coin, pork, beef, cotton, and the wages of labor. Wallace quoted from the speech of Hilford at Michigan, in which he was quoted as saying "The gold monetary standard in fifteen or eighteen years has come up no less than from 60 to 80 percent, and as to further rise in value, no man can set a limit." Wallace denied that in the broad sense silver is a local question and said he could prove from statistical statistics that the loss to the agricultural states from the deflation of money occasioned by the refusal of free coinage in each state in the greatness is from ten to twenty times 1891 loss unstained by silver. Wallace said that the international conference for the purpose of stabilizing our money values by the dictation of foreign money powers, is the most contemptible and God-forsaken idea that ever entered the brain of an American citizen. If we have become, under the reign of the two old parties, only a province of European monarchies, then we need another revolution; another appeal to arms and to the blood of hosts. In closing, Governor Wallace said, "Who is Grover Cleveland, and who is Benjamin Harrison, and who are their supporters in Wall Street and Chicago, that they dare assume to dilute into poverty and exile half a million of freemen?" There is no use of peace, where there is no peace. The greatest danger is that enforced under the forms of law. Our weapons are ingenuity and the ballot, a free thought and a fair count. If the money power shall attempt to sustain its usurpation of our rights, as in other lands, we will meet that issue if it is forced upon us; for it is better, indeed it is far better, rather than that our liberties should be destroyed by the many that oppress humanity all over the world, that we should wade through seas of blood to horses' bridles." Tremendous applause.
Ex-Congressman Pierce of Tennessee, the lieutenant of Chairman Bailey in the last congress, was received with great enthusiasm, and proceeded to make a speech which was the climax of the day in its arraignment of President Cleveland. "I am here as a democrat," said he. "Democracy had no part and parcel in the financial monopoly of silver. Democracy does not believe in it." Applause. "The democratic representatives from the south and west, constituting an overwhelming majority of the democrats, THEY SANG ANOTHER SONG." Old Soldiers at Superior Lift Up Their Voices in Glad Acclaim.
"MAKING THROUGH GEORGIA" IN SPIRIT
Camp Pine Varieties and Kindred Address by Senator Robinson of Nebraska
Have Down for Old Glory Progress of the Republic.
CAMP LINCOLN, Superior, Neb., Aug. 2.
(Special to The Daily News) In his welcoming address yesterday, Colonel Schuler, who is a grizzled old veteran, with a face beaming with the milk of human kindness, said that it was not the old soldiers to whom he spoke, but to their wives and daughters and sons, whom he considered old soldiers too, in a way. He wanted everybody to feel that they were welcomed to Camp Lincoln, and could pitch in heart and soul and make the most out of a good thing—an occasion to him of exceeding more interest than the great World's fair, now charming its millions of people at Chicago. He added that no one need have any fears of molestation from any source; that strict military discipline was enforced throughout the encampment; that the guards were always at their posts, as well as a goodly squad of police and deputy sheriffs; that they should all feel as safe as if they were in their own homes. He considered a reunion of the old soldiers a sacred thing, and no place for anything but the exchange of goodwill and affection. After the colonel had retired, amid the shouts of his old comrades, W. P. Conway, a private of the Ninety-fourth Illinois, and a man who saw much thrilling service with the Army of the Gulf, took the stand, and in an inimitable way sang "Under Abe Will do Hugo and do Fiji," A darky melody that fairly tore the big crowd by storm. Of course, he had to come again and again, and his "Old Glory" and "Marching Through Georgia," were feats of a genuine kind.
The entire assemblage took part in choruses of the latter song, and the velvet of sound, as it arose from the shady grove, echoed far away down the Republican's lovely valley. Hurrah! Hurrah! Bring the jubilee; Hurrah! Hurrah! For the flag that made you free.
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sun,
A mile we were inarching through Georgia.
Those are the lines that rekindle all the latent fire in the old soldier's heart, make his eyes sparkle over again with the brilliance of youth, sends a tingling through his nerves and solos his heart to bounding as no light of oratory or sound of combinations, drums and brass can ever do.
There were songs and short stories by other old veterans, but the tall Kansas man had the call, and he was obliged to favor the crowd once more, and again just before the closing of the ceremonies.
The address of Prof. Andrews was a fine one, and held the crowd entranced throughout. He said this great reunion was very suggestive of the incidents and principles of our late civil war.
"I do not ask you," he said, "to dwell chiefly upon the inestimable sacrifices of those days, but rather upon the fact that warfare has been an important factor in human progress. Recount the intellectual warfare which has led the race from the darkness of the past to the glory and light of the present. Recount the spiritual warfare which has conducted the race from the dangers of the past to the serene heights of peace and conscience. Recount the military warfare which has aided in breaking down the powers of monarchy and bringing in free representative government. Answering these lines of warfare, the race has matched in triumph from the land of bondage." In his peroration, Mr. Andrews soared in lofty realms, and the old soldiers and their friends attested to their appreciation in long, loud, and vigorous cheers.
Colonel O. H. Coulter was the first speaker introduced, and he, too, made a hit. His address was more of the nature of a chat, easy, gracious and highly entertaining, about equitably balancing us to pathos and humor. He talked light at the old fellows in blue in a language they all spoke; told them things they had probably heard a hundred times before; made them laugh one moment and drew their sleeves across their eyes the next. Of courses, when he spoke through the throes, there was an outbreak of cheers that must have made his heart palpitate with the pleasing feeling that he was one of them. His windup was a unique one.
"If there are any men in this great crowd of old veterans who went with Sherman to the sea, let them stand up." As if by magic, there were a couple of bundled many forms, some of them bent with age and decrepitude, not clothed, despite this, in the fullness of their manliness, standing in the aisles and among the benches.
"Here, my fellow citizens," exclaimed the facetious colonel, "is a fair sample of the chicken thieves of the Army of the Cumberland."
And then the old fellows fairly howled in ecstasy, shipping each other on the back and grasping hands, as if they had just met after a parting of a score of years.
Colonel Coulter, after the interview with Colonel Smith.
In a brief interview with Colonel Coulter on the probable notion of the Grand Army of the Republic concerning the suspension of pensions, he said, "Why, I believe that as a body, it will surely take steps to test the legality of Hoke Smith's order on the pension question. That this offer comes from a Georgian, you see, is particularly galling to the soldiers who served in the troops and navies of the union at a time when his state was trying to live out of the fold. I think it is the duty of the Grand Army to make this fellow come into court and be made to prove his claims of fraud on the part of pensioners in the past. The Grand Army has been too lenient in regard to these things, and it is time now for every soldier in any position to speak out just what he thinks about the matter. There has been aspersions cast on the old homes of '62, the men who deserted their sides and home to protect the flag from just such rebels as Hoke Smith, and if they remain silent and passive under this foul attack, I will think the old fires of those innumerable days have died out indeed." And I might add that it is no better or more appropriate place than at just such reunions as this, when the stained volumes are all together, of giving voice to their sentiments, and it is to be hoped that this opportunity will not be allowed to pass unimproved."
Taking Filing at Their Own.
After the speech-making was over, the audience dispersed to the various parts of the big encampment. Many of the old soldiers strolled out to the little eminence on which is being erected the fort that is to take such a conspicuous part in Thursday's sham battle. Here they lingered and chatted, examined the big guns and pointed out to each other the most available points of attack and defense. From their earnestness, one would have imagined that the fall of the old flag again depended upon the outcome of this mock conflict. And why not? Every one of those generals, over every one of whom the air hung heavy with the smoke of battle, did their part in the real encounters of blood on southern fields thirty years ago, as Grant, Sherman, Blair, McClellan, Hancock, Meade, and Thomas did theirs, and why not envelop them in the same halo of battle?
Assorted along the parade ground, lounged in the shadow of graceful willows and smoked the pipe of peace and talked of the things of war. A compilation of the stories snapped here this week would make a readable volume indeed. While the old veterans hung around the tents, the fort, the parade grounds and everything that smacked of the military, the country people, chiefly lumbering the legacy of the deep-laid faker uncle penny snaps. The lull in the howls occupies the eastern portion of the park and is a midweek place, as what it lacks in the way of capacious attractions and worthless claptrap, isn't to be named. There is everything that bears in the way of freaks and curios from the fat woman to the hairy panda, and a combination of dissimilar noises that keeps green the memory of Grand, old John Adams and which makes the welkin ringing after a fashion that, if he could have foreseen it, would have fully satisfied his ambition for a vociferous and uproarious high old time.
The reunion is certainly meeting the loudest hopes of the association. A big crowd is here and a bigger one coming. It is a joyous and united audience, bent upon enjoying itself despite the fact that this dreary dog-day weather is fairly incinerating both earth and atmosphere.
Referred to as "The Grand Corps Arrival."
And still, Camp Lincoln grows, Santa Fe trains bringing in large crowds from the south, and the B. & M. from the west at noon bringing an immense crowd and large delegations from Women's Relief Corps of Nebraska, among whom were Mrs. Emma L. V. Knight, past president Department of Nebraska; Mrs. Gould Gage and Mrs. W. H. Andrews. They proceeded immediately to the ground, where a hearty welcome was given them at Women's Relief Corps headquarters. Then, at 11:30, the Women's Relief Corps had commenced their day in real earnest, and at the speakers' stand most excellent addresses were rendered by Rev. John Chapin of Red Cloud and Department President Mrs. C. A. Hunter of Loup City, a declamation by Mrs. Nora Nice of Red Cloud, and a paper by Miss May Mahaffoy. These made woman's day most enjoyable and pleasant and one long to be remembered.
Tickled the. Halls and Offices.
The press headquarters, occupied by THE OMAHA BEE, Nebraska State Journal, and Western Veteran of Topeka, was completely surprised by a serenade from the First Regiment band of Geneva, whose music would stir the hearts of the most unappreciative. And as the last piece was rendered, General Halback responded with one of his eloquent speeches. He said they blew more music into the hearts of the old soldiers than they with their breath could force into form. The faces of the boys beamed with pleasure more than their uniforms could possibly glitter in the sunlight.
At 4 the old veterans fell in for toll call by the states. They responded to their names in old army style. At 4:30 a grand parade was formed by the National Guards with the commanders and staffs at the head, which marched to the depot and escorted the arrivals to camp, important among which were Lieutenant Governor Majors, General John M. Thayer, and Hon. Church Howe.
Resolution Adopted.
This afternoon a meeting of the Grand Army of the Republic was called. The question at hand was the pension question, and the following resolutions were adopted:
The soldiers for the union now living in Nebraska and Kansas, in order to ratify a reunion as assembled at superior, cannot but feel with alarm the action of the government at Washington regarding the suspension of pensions now held by our comrades by loss on their service to our country in the hour of its greatest need, and being actually acted upon by a loyal desire to stand by them in their time of need and disclaiming a spirit of undue criticism, do hereby, as an expression of our undivided sentiments, resolve that while we concede and approve of the right of the commissioner of pensions to purge the pension roll of every name put there by fraud, there is such fraud perpetrated, yet we deny the right in law or morals of the commissioner, secretary of the Interior, or any other officer of the government, to first suspend and then require the non-combatants to furnish proof that they are entitled to a pension. We affirm the truth recessary for the allowance having been once furnished by him and that his case has been adjudicated upon by duly constituted authority, is final and for us president in concerned, and it is a wrongful exercise of power to require proof.
Work of the Solder Endorsed.
The soldiers of the republic deserve well of their country, for it was through their unselfish effort that its life was preserved, the cause of popular government more fully established, and freedom, with all the rights which followed in its train, advanced to a higher excellence. We demand, in the name of our dead as well as our living comrades, in the name of the widows, the fatherless, and the aged survivors of their beloved dead, that the assault now threatening cease at once, and that those split now minted by those in authority shall give way to and once more restore to that feeling of love and justice which has heretofore characterized the government of the country in its dealings with the defenders of the nation from the willful, sicked, and causeless assaults of treason.
We recall again to life the words of the martyr who stood within the shadow of treason's last and most vindictive assault, "with charity for all, but without illusion toward none," with charity for all, let us press forward in the work in which we are commanded to bind up the nation's wounds, to provide for him who has borne the battle, the widows and orphans, and in this work we tell the spirits of destruction and the foul stain which is now being poured upon the heels of the men who have borne the burden of the battle, the broken and worn soldiers and sailors of the union, and here and there, with elbow touching heaven, as in the days of old, we renew the pledge of loyalty to country and to the flag and of undying allegiance to our comrades, wherever they may be, and pray God's blessing upon them and theirs.
Following: Good Harrington.
The 1st regiment band, under Prof. S.H. Camp, with dressy uniforms, are making an exceedingly fine exhibition. The boys, too, are proud of their well-kept uniforms, their excellent music, and the manly conduct which they have sustained while here. Geneva can well boast of their fine band.
General Miller, Colonel Major, Church Howe, General Hinckley, and many others made the camp program the most enthusiastic one over held in Nebraska. The ferry speeches, intermingled with jokes, sent the thrill of old army life into every brother. Tomorrow's program will be as follows:
Grand parade through the city and camp followed by speeches by Lieutenant John J. Ignatius, General John M. Thayer, Church Howe, T.J. Majors, General Hinckley, and others.
The Iowa Barn
Aug. 3 [Special to THE HERALD.] It has leaked out for some time that its a possibility that Senator Beckwith, having tendered his resignation, to take effect unless he is seated as soon after the convening of the senate as his case can possibly be acted upon. Should the matter daily along as it did last winter, he proposes to throw up the job and return home. It is also whispered that, he does not propose to be used as a tool in inflicting further appointments, which are being urged upon the faithful by the faithful.
It is not believed here that Collector New will be appointed in place of Cary, in consequence of the urges the acceptance of his resignation, as it is a well-known fact that Governor Osborn wishes to succeed Cary or the appointed and New's appointment to the senate would be sudden death to his ambition.
Members of the National Association of Editors at CHICAGO, Aug. 3 (Special Telegram to THE HERALD.)

The ex-treasurer was seen at his home by the time the British early this evening. He stated that he had heard of the matter only this afternoon, and that he had talked with Attorneys Cobb & Harvey in regard to the matter. They had assured him, he said, that no decision had yet been reached; that the attention of the comptroller of the currency had been consulted, and that officially had referred the question back to the attorney for an opinion. The ex-treasurer knew nothing further in regard to the new matter, and did not show any indications of uneasiness over the new and unexpected developments in the case.
The decision of Holver to not allow the state's claim has also given a new compilation to the case which is likely to draw in several people who have not up to the present time figured prominently in the muddle.
In particular, U.S. Attorney Ryan's Point.
When Treasurer Bailey assumed the duties of his office, he immediately received from his predecessor certificates of deposit on the Capital National Bank for over $300,000. Those certificates were deposited in the bank the next day by Deputy Treasurer Hartley to the credit of the state treasurer. The bank accepted the certificates, credited the entire amount to the state treasurer, opened a new account in a new passbook, and then destroyed the certificates. Treasurer Bailey stated that he felt that $300,000 was too much to keep on deposit in any one bank, and with the view of reducing it as speedily as possible, he checked out something like $10,000 within the first few days after he had assumed his office. It was this extraordinary and unexpected demand of the state treasurer that precipitated the failure of the bank. Now the question has presented itself to several prominent financiers in Lincoln, how is Receiver Hayden to treat the $100,000 part out on checks signed by State Treasurer Bailey? If he holds that the state funds were not deposited in the bank and yet admits that the bank recognized the state treasurer's checks to the extent of $100,000, does he propose to consider the latter amount as an overdraft and attempt to collect it from the state treasurer?
This is the question asked by one of the interested parties, but it cannot be answered until the legal opinion of Receiver Hayden's attorneys is given to the public.
Will Wait for Further Notice.
State Treasurer Hartley said this evening that it was clearly evident that the claims of the state would be ignored, and that it was perfectly safe to assume that the state would get a share of the receiver's dividends only after a lawsuit. He could not say what he should do in regard to the matter until he had received the written notice from the receiver and could ascertain the legal ground upon which the receiver's decision was based.
GCHANGING THE GAME: THE CASE.
When Judge Winkley, who is counsel for the state in the case against ex-treasurer Hill and his bondsmen, was asked last evening about the effect of the latest action of the receiver on the case now pending in court, he said, he had received no formal intimation of what the receiver had done, but he could not see how it would have any effect on the case in any manner whatever.
"It must be understood," he said, "that the state, as a state, does not look to the bank for that $100,000. The state's position is that ex-Treasurer Hill received the money and failed to either turn it over to his successor or to pay it out in the way of proper disbursements to settle the indebtedness of the state. That is why the state has never made a demand upon the bank for the money after the manner of regular depositor. Treasurer-Hartley wanted this demand made, but I advised very distinctly against it, and Governor Crowe and Attorney General Hastings declined to make it. The state has supposed and alleged that the money was deposited as claimed, but it makes no difference to our case whether it was or not.
This assertion on the part of the receiver, that the money never was deposited, is something that I had not heard before. If Captain Hill did not deposit it, that is his lookout and not the concern of the state. If he did not deposit it, he is certainly liable for the money, and if he did deposit it, he unlawfully converted it to his own use by so doing, and therefore embezzled it and violated his bond. This has all along been the contention of the attorney, and this new statement will not change the situation at all.
Will Proceed Monday.
Treasurer Bailey has recently made a demand for the money, and I suppose that is what called forth the declaration on the part of the receiver that nobody knows whether the money was deposited or not, but it is certain that there were certificates of deposit showing that the money had been received by the bank. There were a number of irregularities practiced in connection with the bank's paper, but I believe this is the first time that it has been alleged that the ex-treasurer's certificates were bogus. No claim heretofore having been that the money was actually deposited, but that the bank's books were doctored so as to defraud the bank and deceive the directors and bank examiner. So far as this phase is concerned, all I can say is that it will not cause any change of plans or have any bearing on the case. We have been ruled out of court here on the ground of want of jurisdiction, but the case will be decreed in the supreme court in a full day, and we look for a speedy hearing, expecting a decision this fall. We do not believe that the supreme court will sustain Judge Day, but if we are mistaken on that point, we will know it as soon as possible, that we begin suit in Lancaster county, while if we are to be allowed to go ahead here, it will be determined, in order that the case against Mr. Hill and his bondsmen may be pushed right along.
Of course, we would like to see the bank pay the money, so as to save Mr. Hill and his bond, and we would like to see the money in the state treasury, where it belongs, but we are not worrying about whether it will ever be paid in the Capital National or not, as that is something that concerns the ex-treasurer and his financial backers more than it does anyone else.

Minister Blount's equanimity was seriously disturbed by an incident which occurred just before the steamer Australia left port. The prearranged scheme of presenting a cane to Clauses Spreckels was carried out. It was inscribed with a list of names, headed by those of Liliuokalani and James H. Blount, and, at the time of the insurrection, the radicals took occasion to state that Minister Blount allowed the use of his name to show his appreciation of Spreckels and the ex-queen's cause.
When Minister Blount heard of this, he denounced the matter in an excited manner as an outrage and sent the provisional government a note, calling its attention to it. Charles Creighton, who made the presentation speech, was called upon for an explanation and an apology for the use of Minister Blount's name on the cane. This afternoon Creighton left his answer at the foreign office. It contained an attempted explanation of the use of Blount's name and expressed the regret of four royalists participating that the offense had been given. The matter was considered in a cabinet meeting and it was resolved to decline to accept the apology offered. Creighton's letter was returned to him this evening, and the government will decide on further action after consulting Minister Blount.

First Trip Down Water.
HOT SPRINGS, Aug 3 [Special to The BRIK] Louis Du Binds and Gust Olson have just completed a novel boat, which they will launch in the Cheyenne river tomorrow and attempt to make the journey from Hot Springs to Memphis Tenn., by water. The boat is about thirty-five feet long and five feet wide at its widest part, and will not draw more than six inches of water. In the stern, they have rigged a paddle wheel with a stream, and they will propel it by hand power with a crank.
They expect to be about three months making the trip. Du Binds is an old sea captain, having plied between New York and Philadelphia and the West Indies, sailing his own vessel, which was afterward wrecked on Cano Chatto, losing everything he had. They are well equipped with fishing tackle, guns and ammunition, and expect to get a good part of their living from this source.

LEON FINALLY TRIUMPHS
Peace Declared in Nicaragua After Several Hard-fought Battles.
BOTH ARMIES STILL IN THE FIELD
(From The New York Times via Dispatch from Leon, Nicaragua, via Galveston, Tex.), Aug 3 [By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to The BRI:] Communication with the Atlantic coast, which was interrupted on account of storms, has been resumed and some of the details of the treaty of peace signed by the representatives of the United States and Nicaragua party have been obtained. Under this treaty, the United States party will assume complete control of the government of Nicaragua, and the reign of General Zelaya, who was elected provisional president by the Granada party after Machado had been shut up in Leon, has come to an early close.
The treaty signed by the representatives of the combatants in the war which has just closed provides that the junta government headed by the United States will be recognized as the national government. Thus, the United States has again triumphed over the hated Granadinos and once more controls the government. By the terms of the treaty, a general amnesty has been declared, The Granadinos will be forgiven for having fought to maintain their government. All the expenses of the war contracted by each side are to be paid by the successful government. The most important feature of the treaties is one providing that an election shall be held September 15, at which members of the constituent assembly are to be chosen by ballot. None of the troops have yet been disbanded. Both armies still occupy the positions held when negotiations for a treaty of peace were begun.
The situation is, the force, still serious and no one would be much surprised if hostilities should be reopened. Heavy rains have prevailed over the interior of Nicaragua for three days. Via Galvesion, Tov., Aug. U (By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to The Herald): The Herald's correspondent in Nicaragua reports that the vote of the Nicaraguan senate in favor of the intervention by the nation's authorities in the settlement of the revolutions in the provinces of Nicaragua, Atlantic, and San Luis is considered a governmental victory. There was great surprise over the vote of the Chamber of Deputies in opposition to national intervention. Notwithstanding the vote of the Chamber of Deputies, the national government, which appears to be becoming more popular, has determined to enforce its decree that all troops under the provincial government shall be disbanded. General Campos has announced his intention to aid the national government in the work of disarming the provincial troops. National forces, under the command of General Vílante, also aid in this work. News was reached tonight that General Lawson repulsed the forces at La Plata commanded by General Costa, governor of the province of Nicaragua, but details of the engagement have not been obtained. It is reported that 100 men were killed and 100 wounded during the fighting in and around Rosario in the province of Santa Cruz. The vice governor of that province has assumed control, displacing Governor Cifuentes. Other revolutions are threatened against the local governments of Salta and Tucumán. Friends of the governors of those provinces are consulting with Diego, the national indicator, with a view to settling the trouble in a compromise.
In the province of San Luis, the political situation has been leased by the radicals, who deposed the governor. The Herald's correspondent in Buenos Aires telegraphs that the government of Buenos Aires has issued a notice announcing that there is perfect peace in Paria and Santa Catalina. This statement is not fully credited. The government has also caused it to be reported that the captain of Admiral Wandelkolk has destroyed the hopes and aims of the revolutionists in Rio Grande do Sul. The banks in Rio Janeiro believe that the trouble has ended in Rio Grande do Sul, but the Herald's correspondent in Montevideo telegraphs that General Sarmiento is in hot pursuit of General Telles, the commander of the Castillistas forces. It is reported that the revolutionary committee will move its headquarters from Montevideo to Buenos Aires. Notwithstanding the reports sent out from Rio Janeiro that there is perfect peace in San Catalina, houses were received tonight that revolutionists had deposed the governor of the state and proclaimed Horacio Las as executor of the state. The Herald's correspondent in Montevideo telegraphs that the Uruguayan cruiser Turuquillo, which passed today, after the arrival of the cruiser, Senator Moneiro, the Uruguayan minister to Brazil, asked the Uruguayan government to aid Brazil in restoring order in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul. The request was based upon the principles of international law. A refusal by Uruguay may cause trouble. It seems probable that Tejedor will be elected president of Uruguay.
Arrangements have been perfected for the president's journey to Washington. The president, Secretary Carlisle, and Secretary Lanoue will leave here on Friday afternoon and take a steamer from New York to Jersey City, where on special cars they will be taken to Washington.
Vice President Stevenson and party arrived here this morning and left tonight for Washington.

Iho Tmnplo of Isrnrt.
A dual wedding , especially In prominent
social circles , is so much ofa rarity thai
hundreds of people took advantage of
Iho glorious night nnd ( looked to the Temple
of Israel to witness the marriage of Miss
Blanche Helhnan und Mr. Henry B. Sachs ,
Miss Mabel Hollman and Dr. William
Koscnuu last evening. Dr. Hosenau was
formerly In charge of the Jewish congrega
tion of this city , but is now presiding over
the spiritual welfare of one of Baltimore's
largest congregations.
Whllo a large crowd collected about the
outside Iho synagogue was tilled with an
nsaomblngoof representative Omaha citizen
ship not confined to crcod or profession.
The Episcopal clergy was represented by
one of the loading lights of the church ,
"
while the various" professions had their
leading advocates in the representative
audience.
In honor of the marriage of two of
Omaha's beautiful young women , the church
wns prettily decorated with tldwors , the
alinncel being hung with white satin
cloth , silent symbolism of the marrluito
vows to bo made , while the light behind the
words of faith , above the altar , shone with
effulgence upon thu inspiring scene. Palms
and other plants ornamented the pulpit ,
whllo a pretty lloral bell hung Just above
the altar. Beneath this emblem the brides
and urooms stood to plight ihelr troth.
At 8 : ! U ) o'clock the I wo bridal processions
entered the church , that marching up the
right aisle- being led by the ushers , Mr. Julius
Meyer and Mr. tus ? Dciches , followed by Mr
Ben Itellmun of Cheyenne , Wye. , and Mrs.
II. B. Sachs , mother of the groom ; MM.

San Francisco , Miss Stella Ilellman of
Cheyenne , the first bridesmaid , and the
maids of honor , Miss Selma Holliuan , sister
of the bride , and lastly the brldo , Miss
Blnncho Ilellman. Whllo the procession In
the riirht nlslo man-lied toward the altar
the other wedding p.irty in the loft alslo
marched abreast of that on the right.

An orchestra stationed in the pillory
played the Lohengrin wedding march during
the procession and ono of Chopin's pretty
nocturnes during the ceremony. At the
chancel the wedding party was met by the
grooms , Mr. II. B. Sachs and Dr. Kosemati
with tholr "best men. " Mr. Charles Kuhn of
Cincinnati and Mr. Fred F. Seligsohn and
the officiating ministers. Dr. Leo Franklin ,
Dr. W. S. Friedman of Denver , the benedic
tion being pronounced by the faihor of the
groom Dr. lioscnaii of Erie , Pa.
The ceremony of the Jewish faith , which
is distlnctlj personal in character , Is beauti
fully impressive , filled with a sublime senti
ment that shows the ancient standing of tlio
Hebrew race. Dr. Franklin began the cere
mony with high thoughts of tlio marriage
relation and how sacredly it should bo
entered Into. Then ho pledged the contract-
ing parties In the time-honored tankards of
wino and followed this with the tings , dwell
ing upon the circlet of gold us nn everlast
ing symbol of the purity of the marriage tie.
After tlio unity of hearts , Dr. Friedman
spoke of the now relations thus com
menced nnd of the joys awaiting the
newly married. In addressing the brides and
grooms he said : "Let lov'o outtowor your
lower selves as Pike's peak rises above the
Hocktcs and claims fellowship with the
clouds. Then your life will boa .song o *
sweetness and life. " In speaking to Dr.
Hosonau lie feelingly said : "To you , dear
comrade , companion of my college
days , fellow student , fellow worker ,
may God give you unstinted blessing ,
and may the sainted father of these children
give to you a higher life and smile upon you.
May his virtues crown the daughters'lives
May his spirit bo with you. " Than came
thu benediction according to ancient custom
delivered by the father of ono of the bride
grooms , Dr. Nathan Ilosenau. The reces
sional was led by the 'newly married couples
while the orchestra played the Mjiidolssohn
march.

MatinJi Su'urJtjr. | STOCKS ARE ON THE UPTURN
Efforts Driven to Cover in Dismay and Disorder by the Unexpected Recovery.
BETTER FEELING AMONG THE BROKERS
Collapsing of the Central New York Exchange in Chicago
Particulars in Struggling of United in New York (Corner * ! New at the Exchange)
NEW YORK, Aug. 2, The revulsion of feeling as expressed on today's stock market was of exceptional violence. The advances in prices were as extreme as were the declines on the gloomiest days of last month. Wild excitement prevailed in the exchange during the last hour. The shorts that remained uncovered were unable to procure stocks and bid over each other without reaching offers. In the last half hour the traders short of Western Union, finding themselves unable to cover their positions, defaulted on their deliveries and were bought in under the rule at a difference against them of 1% per cent, compared with sales made on the floor.
In all parts of the room it appeared that the short interest was being cornered, and in the last half hour the bears were veritably panic-stricken.
Today's buying orders were in some ways different from those on which earlier recoveries have been scored, a noticeable feature being heavy purchases in some quarters, which suggested real "buying for the stock." This was a genuine surprise to Wall Street and frightened the bear contingent into covering contracts at rapidly advancing prices.
The money was as tight as ever today, and urgent borrowers had not only to pay full market rates, but a handsome commission through the loan brokers. There was, however, a general belief that in the expectation of new issues of bank circulation and/or large supplies of gold by the opening of next week, call loans had been granted liberally, with some assurance that they would be allowed to stand undisturbed.
Regarding the Chicago produce failures, there was an almost universal feeling down town that a great load had been lifted off the markets. The cheerfulness and even congratulation with which the collapse was discussed on the Produce exchange was an especially noticeable feature.
The chief drawback to the general good feeling prevailing in financial circles today was the condition of affairs in Chicago, here and Boston. The loan committee of the clearing house issued $800,000 certificates today. The subtreasury was debtor at the clearing house this morning $208,000, and that amount was paid in gold, the associated banks being the gainer thereby of specie to that amount.
OTHER NEWS FROM THE EXCHANGE
Other Grain and Rice Markets in the Valley Stimulate Trading.
Chicago, Aug. - It looked as if yesterday's thunderclap had cleared the atmosphere at the Board of Trade, for at the opening this morning September wheat started 3% cents higher at 55 cents, with some sales at 54% cents, but later sold off to 53% cents. September pork opened unchanged at $11.40; September lard at 7% cents higher at $0.15; September hogs 20 cents up at $0.30. The buoyancy, however, was short-lived. Soon after the opening the failure of U. Eggleston & Son, a widely known firm, engaged in carrying lard and pork for the Cudahy-Wright clique, was announced. The announcement was also accompanied by that of the failure of George O. Parker & Co., a well-known commission firm. Then followed the suspension of Thomas Groig, a fairly prominent trader. All three had been expected, and all three were more or less closely connected with the Jack Cudahy deal. This caused a break of over 5 cents in wheat, at 53% cents, but a rally quickly followed to 54% cents. Hogs remained strong and advanced from 53% to $6.85. Pork dropped to $11, but recovered to $12.25, lard following pork.
As the day wore on the report became current that P. L. Armour, the great packer, had provided for the cash wheat that Eggleston was carrying. Eggleston's trouble, it was asserted, grew out of sugar products, not grain. The consequence was a tendency to make wheat firmer. Large seaboard clearances were also a supporting factor.
Before noon liquidation seemed completed and all the pits comparatively quiet and steady. Armour was a large buyer of pork at $12. The Anglo-American company purchased much lard and Nelson Morris took hold of ribs. At this time wheat showed an advance of 1 cent over last night. Corn went up.
The failures of Eggleston & Co. and Parker & Co., as well as that of Groig, grew out of yesterday's failures. The fact that the Armours assumed Eggleston's great holdings of wheat is all that saved the market from another great panic.
C. U. Eggleston, better known as "Sandy," was one of the leading figures in the Norris failure at the time of the collapse of the Fidelity bank some six years ago. On that occasion he lost $800,000, but had some left, and his wife also had $1,500,000. It is believed he has been left in this time for about $300,000 personally, and the firm of Eggleston & Co. for as much more. Parker & Co. were doing business for the Cudahy-Wright-Clairborne combination, and their failure today was a logical sequence. Their losses are regarded as about $500,000.
Thomas Groig has never had much made, and his losses are estimated at about $10,000.
INDUSTRIAL PROGNOSIS
How Armour Will Result from the Panic Situation.
ATCHISON, Aug. 3. [Special Telegram to THE SPECTATOR.] In a conversation today on the financial situation, ex-Senator Ingalls said: "This day is balmy and sunshiny in comparison with the clouds and storms just ahead of us. The ultimate result will be a redistribution of the assets of the country. The millionaire of today will occupy the pauper's hut and the pauper in the near future will ride in the chariot of the millionaire. Colorado, Arizona, and the other mineral states should be blotted out as states and added to the great American desert from which they were taken. The devastation of the yellow fever in the south was not nearly so disastrous as the situation in Colorado, produced by the closing of the mines. Thousands of people are walking the streets of Denver. Like the lowly Nazarene, foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests but the Colorado citizen hath not where to lay his head. On every street corner in Denver goes up the pitiful cry for bread.
"In Wall Street the pitiful cry goes up for gold. When these two panicky conditions come together in the great Mississippi valley, chaos and anarchy will follow."
ON SHORT TIME
Several Mills and Factories Closing Their Doors

NEW YORK, Aug. 2, A curtailing of operations has been ordered by the Brockton-Wool mills at Brockton, Mass.; the locomotive shops of the New York, Lake Erie & Western at Susquehanna; the Mohawk Valley Silk mill at Canajoharie, N.Y.; also the Cocho mills at Dover, N.H.; the Lancaster Gingham, at Clinton, Mass.; the Passalo Print works, the Manhattan Print works, the New York Cloth mills, the Holyoke Worsted mills, and the Harry's Print works at Lawrence, Mass.; and the American Linen mills at Fall River, Mass.

CAPITAL AND CREDIT
PROFITABILITY OF THE FUTURE.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3, Nelson Morris & Co. today secured an attachment for $120,450 and $75,000 from the John Cudahy property in this city. A deed of trust from J. C.
Cudahy & Co. of Chicago to the Columbia
Bank and Trust company of this city was
recorded. It transfers nine pieces of property in consideration of * .
The Bank to Humphrey Dickinson
Trust Company Supplies.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2. M. W. Lawrence,
president of the People's National bank of
Denver, the last of twelve banks which suspended in that city, is now in New York arranging for his bank to resume business.
"I have arranged," he said, "for a continuance of ninety days on two issues aggregating $30,000, one by our bank to the National Park bank and the Union National of Chicago. We shall probably therefore be able to resume in a few days."
Speaking of the situation in Colorado, Mr. Lawrence says: "The panic there is, or rather was, simply a temporary craze. That is all it amounts to. Values in Colorado have not been injured to any serious extent. Colorado has resources way beyond the silver question that cannot be harmed."
DENVER, Aug. 2. F. W. Popple was today
appointed receiver for the Hamilton Loan
and Trust company of this city on the application of Samuel S. Belcher and others, the defendants consenting to the unit.
The company is organized under the laws
of Nebraska and has done a large amount of
business in that state, Colorado, and Kansas.
The action is brought to protect the interests
of all concerned and prevent a depreciation
of assets by the present financial stringency.
FIRST BANKS.
Denver or Los Angeles Forced to Close Their Doors
Due to Insufficient Funds.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 2. At 10 o'clock this morning
a notice appeared on the door of the Los Angeles National bank, saying that owing to the continued withdrawals of deposits the directors had ordered the bank closed, but that all depositors would be paid in full.
The suspension of the bank was not a surprise to the business community, as it had been in bad condition for months.
"There has been as yet no run of any importance on the other banks and there is no likelihood of any. The State National has nearly $400,000 cash in its vaults and the First National is in good shape. The Los Angeles National has a capital of $150,000 and
its loans and discounts amount to
$500,000, while its deposits are

Secretary Curllslo Intervened.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2. This afternoon
Secretary Curllslo lunched with Subtreasurer
Jordan and ex-Secretary Fail-child.
Later he visited the subtreasury and the
custom house. He met no bankers, and said
that he had no opinion to express on the
financial situation or the probable action of
congress.
Asked what he thought of the action of
the national banks in arranging for new
issues of notes, he replied that the result
would be a very welcome relief to
the situation both here and elsewhere.
He added that he personally was in
favor of allowing national banks to issue
circulation to the par value of bonds
deposited as security. There was no likelihood
of any action by congress on that point
at the extra session, however, as its time
would doubtless be fully occupied with the
consideration of the special subject for
which it had been called.

WELCOMED THE VICTORS.
Organizing Turners' Club to Honor the Victors from Oregon, Wisconsin, and Nebraska.
About 300 people, members of the Omaha
Turners', the Saengerbund, and a few invited guests, assembled last night at Turner Hall to pay honor to the victorious Omaha turners who have just returned from Milwaukee and Chicago.
The walls and ceilings of the hall were decorated with oak branches until the whole pavilion took on the appearance of some stately book in the forest.
The address of welcome was delivered by
the well-known German mayor, Jacob
Hankof this city. He reminded the audience
of the fact that physical culture, as taught
by Father Jahn of Germany when that
country was sorely oppressed by Napoleon,
was the thing for the generation growing
up at the present time.
No system, the speaker said, could compare with this for physical advancement.
Omaha's population, among whom were proud of the accomplishments of the turners at Milwaukee, were extended a warm welcome and the cause they represented.
The Omaha Saengerbund thereafter, in an admirable manner, rendered the "Welcome," after which Mr. Philip Andres, deputy labor commissioner and at one time instructor of the turners' club, spoke of what the turners' club had accomplished for the German population of this country.
"Margaret and Thero" was sung by the
Saengerbund and a comic recitation
by Mr. Urbansky, dealing with the travels
of a spurs point through Europe,
narrating incidents that merited applause,
the entire assemblage joining in the chorus expressing the customs of the particular country
through which he was
He was followed by more songs from the
Saengerbund under the leadership of Prof.
Charles Peterson, one of Omaha's best instructors in music,
Altogether it was an evening of enjoyment
for all present, and many expressions to that
effect were heard.

THE HUNDRED
United States Treasury Now Holds Over In
Excess of the Arbitrary Reserve.
INCREASE IN THE CIRCULATING MEDIUM
Over Northern Millions Added to the
Money In the United States During the
Month of July Change in Circulation
for the Month.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2. For the first time
since April, 1893, when the gold reserve fell
below the $100,000,000 mark, the reserve has
been made intact. The gold in the treasury
today, exclusive of that held as gold certificates,
amounts to $101,370,000, or $791,370 of free gold.
The surplus, not balance, however, is declining,
the stated amount today being $17,051,900. The
receipts for the past few days have been
disappointing, the business troubles throughout
the country having an effect on the government
revenues. These troubles are receiving the
closest possible attention by treasury officials
and everything that can be done is being done
to relieve the situation. Secretary Carlisle,
who was in New York today, telegraphed Acting
Secretary Curtis the following telegram to the
100 national bank depositories throughout the
United States:
Your authorized allowance is hereby fixed at
proportionate security. Transfer excellent when
practicable to noure.st.st.m.uri.y.
This act on the part of the Treasury department
will release to the banks about $5,000,000, and
is intended, as far as possible, to relieve the
financial stringency prevailing in the country.
The comptroller of the currency today appointed
receivers of national banks as follows: Jeremiah
Mahoney, First National Bank of Ouray, Colo.;
Thomas A. Marion, Montana National Bank of
Helena, Mont.
Money in Circulation.
The circulation statement issued by the Treasury
department today shows that the amount of gold
and silver coin and silver certificates and United
States notes in circulation August 1 was $1,101,019,117,
an increase during the month of July of $17,322,689.
The net increase during the last twelve months in
round numbers is $12,000,000. The per capita
circulation, based on an estimated population of
57,000,000, August 1, was $2.26. Of the $2,326,963,929
of the general stock of money issued $312,809,033 is in
the treasury of the United States.
The changes in circulation during July were:
Kind of Money. Increase, Decrease
Gold coin $ 1,370,611
Silver coin 1,109,644
Standard silver dollars 8,764
Subsidiary silver $1 coins 10,611,111
Silver certificates 65,816,624
Treasury notes, act July 14, 1893 11,051,815
National State notes: 6,017,843
No error.
Acting Director of the Mint Preston received no
reply today to his counter offer for silver at 90.70
per ounce, but stated he believed the price would
be accepted by the holders for the total offerings
of 149,000 ounces. The holders were in the west and
he probably would not hear from them before tomorrow
morning.
House Committee on Coinage Calculated.
Representative Robertson of Louisiana, in response
to a telegram, today received authority from
Judge Holme to issue a call for a democratic caucus,
to be held on Saturday, August 5, at 8 p.m.
Members of congress continue to come in very
slowly, and doubt is expressed today as to whether
there will be a majority of democrats in town on
time for the caucus. There were tonight not more
than forty members of the lower house in the city,
and less than a score of senators. Among the later
Senator Teller was, the most recent arrival. He
comes fresh from the west, ready to take up the fight
for service where he dropped at the close of the last
session.
Senator Harris and Senator Voorhees, chairman of
the finance committee, had, a long conference
yesterday, during which, it is supposed, they mapped
out a plan for the work of that committee.

World's Fair Notes.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2. In regard to the financial
condition of the exposition company, President
Higginbotham gave out the statement today that it
was impossible to give exact figures concerning
indebtedness of the fair at this time but a full
statement will be ready this week. The assertion
that $1,000,000 would not put the fair out of debt
was entirely false. The amount of indebtedness was
comparatively trivial.

exposition grounds. Nearly all the different councils
in the country were represented.

"After the 'Brawl' Was Over."
A colored woman, and a white neighbor, both of the feminine gender, both of whom reside in Tom Murray's plains palaces on Barney street, near Eighth Avenue, had a very satisfactory fight to a finish yesterday afternoon. They had a neighborly quarrel and concluded to settle it in their own style. Their methods were exceedingly vigorous. When hostilities were concluded, one of the combatants grabbed a hot iron and with an imaginary chip on her shoulder sallied forth to do battle. The other was dead game, and would take no bluff from her foe. She seized an able-bodied club and advanced to the scratch with a smile of confidence. The colored woman made a wicked rush with her hot iron. After the brawl was over, the women went into the house to apply arnica and court plaster to their bruises and contusions, and the crowd which had assembled to witness the fight, dispersed. No arrests were made, and the lighters refused to give their names to any officer for fear of having a complaint filed against them for creating a disturbance.

IOWA PROHIBITIONISTS NOMINATE FOR GOVERNOR
MUST HAVE ANOTHER LEADER
BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS TOO PRESSING
President Ayresworth of Drake University, who was nominated for governor by the state prohibition convention, held May 31, issued a letter today declining the honor. Among other things, he says:
"The recent death of Chancellor O. T. Carpenter, the head of Drake University from the first, whose work has made the university what it is, leaves an imperative duty on me which I cannot shirk and be true to obligations contracted years ago. In addition to this, the serious sickness of Dr. A. I. Robbins, dean of the bible college at this juncture, forces double omnibussmanship into the situation.
"It is absolutely necessary that I assume new and broader relations to the university at this time or bear the responsibility of its serious impairment.
"I hold the noble band of workers whom you represent as Gods chosen to cry aloud and spare not. I cannot express to you how it pains me to surrender a leadership that had in it so much of promise. For prohibition, equal suffrage, and industrial reform, my voice and pen shall be given until the end. High upon the wave of human progress plant the flag. For the liberty of the race, let us all give ourselves freely. It is with profound regret that I must decline the honor conferred upon me in the convention of May 31."
TWO GREAT INCIDENTS:
President Christensen Surrounded by the
Dynamics or an Unlucky Event.
DES MOINES, Aug. 5. (Special Telegram to The BEE.) An investigation of the alleged case of poisoning at Lansing, Iowa, indicates that Mrs. Alstead met her death in some unnatural way. She died July 6, and two days later was buried in this city.
Two certificates of death were filed, one by Dr. H. C. Ambler, who attended and prescribed for her in her early illness, and the others by Drs. Brockhouse and Thornton, who were with her when she died. From all accounts, the woman had been in the habit of subjecting herself to surgical operations.
About July 1, she was suffering and sent for Dr. Ambler. He came and prescribed, but his treatment failed to relieve her, and he left a number of morphine powders, with instructions as to their use. Two of the powders were administered and she fell into a comatose state. Neighbors becoming alarmed, called Drs. Thornton and Brockhouse, who agreed that it was a clear case of poisoning from morphine. In spite of their efforts, she died that evening.
The two remaining powders were weighed and found to be double an ordinary dose. The stories regarding the death certificates do not agree, but Dr. Ambler's certificate was accepted, which was unlawful, as the accepted certificate should have been that from the physician last with her. On Dr. Ambler's certificate, the body was shipped to this city and buried.
Charged with the Misuse of a Girl.
DES MOINES, Aug. 2. (Special Telegram to The BEE.) A warrant was sworn out this morning for the arrest of C. C. Cory, superintendent of the Girls Industrial school at Mitchellville, charging him with assault and battery. Aside from the warrant sworn out, Ell Newton, father of the 18-year-old girl who it is alleged was the victim of Superintendent Cory's wrath, has filed an affidavit in the court stating that Cory, on July 20, did beat and bruise his daughter, who was then an inmate of that institution, with a heavy leather strap, causing her arms and shoulders to turn black and blue and from the effect of which assault and battery the child suffered great pain and injury.
Mysterious Jim Martin Captured:
DES MOINES, In., Aug. 2. Mysterious Jim Martin, alias Murray, was jailed here today for a burglary last April. He is wanted for burglaries on the Milwaukee and Northwestern railroads and for robbing a post office near Clinton. He has been the partner of Colonial and Hyan, the Chicago post office burglars, now in Waupun penitentiary, and of Haley, who killed two policemen here last April. He has served two terms in the penitentiary. He broke jail in Wisconsin recently and his arrest at Milwaukee last Thursday was kept quiet until today in order to corral a woman at Beloit, Wis., his fence.
A Controversial Decision:
SIOUX CITY, Iowa, Aug. 2. Considerable excitement and contention was raised in this city yesterday by a decision made by the county surveyor that one-half of the buildings on the south side of the square were off the line. The controversy arose by the fact that O. G. Wynkop, wishing to erect a two-story brick and desiring to get his lines perfect, had them surveyed, with the result aforesaid. If the present survey proves to be the correct one, five parties will have to move their buildings fourteen inches to the east. The matter will be taken into the courts.
Two Burglars Captured:
DAVENPORT, Iowa, Aug. 2.--Special [Telegram to The BEE.] The store of W. D. Simpson was robbed at Victor, Iowa, Sunday. Monday a man was arrested at Morningside carrying a satchel filled with plunder. He was about to ship it to Rock Island. The officers there were notified and this morning arrested one George Custman, who called at the express office for the satchel. Evidence is strong that they are the robbers.
Great Fire at Clutch Hains:
CEBURN, Iowa, August 2. (Special Telegram to The BEE.) The shoe factory of Gates Sons was entirely destroyed by a fire which broke out at 5 o'clock this evening. The loss is fully $20,000, upon which there is insurance of $11,000. The hardware stock of Ruhlas & Martin under the building was damaged by water to the extent of $5,000 to $10,000. Their loss is fully covered. Origin of the fire is not known.
Ending Their Season:
Fort Dodge, Iowa, Aug. 2, (Special Telegram to THE BEE.) The Minneapolis & St. Louis railway has laid off four station agents on this division and is cutting down its machine shop and roundhouse force along the line. All the railways entering here are running on the smallest force they have had for years.
Lyons Will Have a Festival:
LYONS, Neb., Aug. 2. (Special to The BEE.) Secretary Art Everett of the Trotting association says there are 220 entries for the races which come off August 11, 12, and 13. There will be more fast horses here during the races than there are over together in Nebraska before.
Renewed Interest in Iowa Theater:
Elgin, Iowa, Aug. 5. (Special to THE BEE.) The St. Cecilia Ladies' quartet of Tabor college sang to a large and appreciative audience in the Congregational church Tuesday evening. The company is a fine combination of excellent musicians and they sing most charmingly together.
Competition Unwound Senate.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2. It has been reported that former Governor James E. Campbell of Ohio was a candidate for renomination at the coming gubernatorial convention, that gentleman said this morning: "Under no consideration will I accept the nomination for governor. I am not in a position to make a strong fight for several reasons, the strongest being that I am not financially fixed to stand the expenses of a campaign. I will be at the convention next week and if my name is mentioned, I shall withdraw."
Philanthropist Schedules Trip to See the Fair, CHICAGO, Aug. 3. All the employees on the Lowell divisions of the Burlington system have been notified that they can have free transportation to Chicago to go to the World's Fair if they apply and use it now while the volume of traffic is light.
Estimates of the passenger earnings of the western roads for the month of July place the decrease for that month, as compared with June earnings, at $5,000,000, divided pretty evenly among all roads. One reason assigned is a large falling off in the volume of travel. Another is that there was a material reduction of fares.
WEDDING BELLS.
Doubling Weddings of Social Prominence at the Temple of Israels.
A dual wedding, especially in prominent social circles, is so much of a rarity that hundreds of people took advantage of the glorious night and flocked to the Temple of Israel to witness the marriage of Miss Blanche Heisman and Mr. Henry B. Sachs, Miss Mabel Hollman and Dr. William Kosenau last evening. Dr. Kosenau was formerly in charge of the Jewish congregation of this city, but is now presiding over the spiritual welfare of one of Baltimore's largest congregations.
While a large crowd collected about the outside of the synagogue was filled with an assemblage of representative Omaha citizenship not confined to creed or profession. The Episcopal clergy was represented by one of the leading lights of the church, while the various professions had their leading advocates in the representative audience.
In honor of the marriage of two of Omaha's beautiful young women, the church was prettily decorated with tulle, the aisle being hung with white satin cloth, silent symbolism of the marriage vows to be made, while the light above the altar shone with effulgence upon the inspiring scene. Palms and other plants ornamented the pulpit, while a pretty floral arch hung just above the altar. Beneath this emblem the brides and grooms stood to plight their troth.
At 8:15 o'clock the two bridal processions entered the church, that marching up the right aisle being led by the ushers, Mr. Julius Meyer and Mr. Louis Deutsch, followed by Mr. Ben Heisman of Cheyenne, Wyo., and Mrs. H.B. Sachs, mother of the groom; Mrs. Meyer Hollman, mother of the bride, and Mr. Charles Wise. They were succeeded by Miss Heisman and Mr. Jerome Kaufman of Chicago, Miss Adela and Mr. W.L. Cohn of San Francisco, Miss Stella Heisman of Cheyenne, the first bridesmaid, and the maids of honor, Miss Selma Hollman, sister of the bride, and lastly the bride, Miss Blanche Heisman. While the procession in the right aisle marched toward the altar the other wedding party in the left aisle also marched abreast of that on the right.
Following this nuptial march were Mr. Moses Traubman and Mr. Enneth Straus, Mr. Felix Fischheimer of Cincinnati and Mr. Robert Straus followed by Dr. and Mrs. Nathan Kosenau, father and mother of the groom, Miss Addie Newman and Mr. Frank, Miss Hattie Oberfelder and Mr. Phil Loep, then the first bridesmaid, Miss Rose Kosenau, and the maid of honor, Miss Lillie Hollman, sister of the bride, and lastly Miss Mabel Heisman, the bride.
An orchestra stationed in the pulpit played the Lohengrin wedding march during the procession and one of Chopin's pretty nocturnes during the ceremony. At the chancel the wedding party was met by the grooms, Mr. H.B. Sachs and Dr. Kosenau with their "best men," Mr. Charles Kuhn of Cincinnati and Mr. Fred F. Seligsohn and the officiating ministers. Dr. Leo Franklin, Dr. W.S. Friedman of Denver, the benediction being pronounced by the father of the groom, Dr. Kosenau of Erie, Pa.
The ceremony of the Jewish faith, which is distinctly personal in character, is beautifully impressive, filled with a sublime sentiment that shows the ancient standing of the Hebrew race. Dr. Franklin began the ceremony with high thoughts of the marriage relation and how sacredly it should be entered into. Then he pledged the contracting parties in the time-honored tankard of wine and followed this with the rings, dwelling upon the circlet of gold as an ever-lasting symbol of the purity of the marriage tie.
After the unity of hearts, Dr. Friedman spoke of the new relations thus commenced and of the joys awaiting the newly married. In addressing the brides and grooms he said: "Let love outshone your lower selves as Pike's peak rises above the Rockies and claims fellowship with the clouds. Then your life will be a song of sweetness and joy." In speaking to Dr. Kosenau he feelingly said: "To you, dear comrade, companion of my college days, fellow student, fellow worker, may God give you unstinted blessings, and may the sainted father of these children give to you a higher life and smile upon you. May his virtues crown the daughters' lives. May his spirit be with you." Then came the benediction according to ancient custom delivered by the father of one of the bridegrooms, Dr. Nathan Kosenau. The recessional was led by the newly married couples while the orchestra played the Mendelssohn march.
The brides are strikingly handsome young women, tall, of a brunette type of beauty, they looked queenly in their wedding gowns, which were exactly alike, satin duchess the skirts being trimmed with ruffles of satin, the points ornamented with clusters of orange blossoms. The waists were pointed in front, finished with berthes of exquisite point running down to a V in the back, also ornamented with orange blossoms. Full sleeves and long trains completed a perfect wedding toilette, tulle veils fastened to the head, with bunches of orange blossoms, giving a striking effect to the costumes. Both young women carried prayer books, and presented an ideal picture.
Standing with representative feet Where the brook and river meet, Miss Stella Heisman was gowned very sweetly in pink silk covered with mousseline de soie.
Miss Rose Kosenau wore a pretty gown of light blue crepe, daintily trimmed with lace.
Miss Hattie Oberfelder appeared in an empire gown of pink crepe.
Miss Addie Newman wore a blooming costume of lavender crepe, unifying and decollete.
Miss Minnie Heisman, who always dresses in good taste, wore an effective gown of pink brocade.
Miss Flora Adler graced a lovely pink brocade gown, a princely style.
The maids of honor, Misses Selma and Lillie Hollman, wore dainty gowns of white and carried, like the bridesmaids, bouquets of bride roses and sweet peas.
Mrs. Hollman, mother of the brides, wore a duchess costume of plain black satin, trimmed with ermine, ears, the skirt cut square and finished with black lace. Mrs. Sachs, mother of the groom, wore a simple but very pretty gown of black lace. After the ceremony a magnificent reception was held at the Metropolitan club, which was very largely attended by the leaders of society.

WHAT SILVERITES WANT
When the floor of congress, have every time that free silver has been presented, cast their votes in the interest of the people, overwhelmingly for the free and unlimited coinage of silver. [Applause.]
It is not right that I should say this, which is the truth. The truth never hurts anybody.
A voice: "What will Cleveland do?"
[Applause.]
"Cleveland does not represent the democratic party," quickly retorted the ex-congressman, and then the convention broke loose. Men jumped to their feet and cheered hilariously, while a hundred voices yelled: "That's It; he represents Wall Street," "I say today, as a democrat," resumed Mr. Pierce, "that Grover Cleveland, the man from the east, who claims today to represent the democratic party, does not represent it, but misrepresents its position on this question. [Applause.] Do you know why Grover Cleveland was nominated?
A voice: "Six hundred thousand dollars."
[Laughter.]
Our people throughout the south thought Grover Cleveland was the man to protect them against the silver bill. We also believed that he was an honest man and would not attempt to go against the interests of his party upon any question. The leaders were mistaken, as Grover Cleveland's action today shows. [Applause and hisses.]
During all this time, the populists, who have never forgiven Mr. Pierce for adhering to the democratic party last fall, have been restless and interruptions were frequent. A Georgia friend of ex-Congressman Tom Watson yelled: "How does Crisp stand?" [Applause.]
"Charles F. Crisp," answered Mr. Pierce, "has stood for twelve long years by the people on every vote in congress in support of free coinage of silver, and I cannot believe that he will play the Judas and betray the men who made him speaker and the people whom he represents, and who sent him to congress," [Applause, followed by hisses from the populists.]
"How about Carlisle?" yelled a delegate.
"If Carlisle favors the unconditional repeal of the Sherman act," replied Pierce, "he has gone back on his record and on all the people whom he has represented in congress for years." [Cheers, followed by hisses.]
After Mr. Pierce had resumed his seat, President Thurman, who had yesterday in his opening address expressed the greatest personal regard for President Cleveland, criticized Mr. Pierce for stirring into party discussion.
Several telegrams were read pledging different Knights of Labor organizations in the east to the free coinage of silver.
Came as a relief.
Judge C. E. Goodwin of Salt Lake City followed in a half-hour speech, which was loudly applauded. Judge Goodwin was called out of the crowd and his speech was such a mixture of humor and strength that it was a decided relief to the convention.
On motion of Congressman Bryan of Nebraska, the address of Chairman Warner of the Bimetallic league delivered yesterday was adopted as the address of the convention to the American people.
At the instance of Mr. C. S. Thomas of Colorado, the convention extended a unanimous vote of thanks to President Thurman and other officers of the assembly.
Cyclone Davis of Texas got the floor long enough to read a dispatch in an evening paper stating that Secretary Carlisle had been today in consultation with New York bankers on Wall Street to see what they desired him to meet the present crisis, Mr. Davis offered a resolution asking the secretary of the treasury to admit a delegation from the "people" to hear what they thought should be done in the present crisis. The resolution was adopted by a unanimous vote, intermingled with execrations of Secretary Carlisle for his "betrayal of silver."
On motion of General Warner of Ohio, the convention then adjourned sine die.
It was a tiring out by today's long session, the delegates to the silver convention did not assemble tonight, and as a consequence, the meeting advertised fell flat, not more than 200 people being present.
Postscript: The Remaking of the Needle:
Secretary Morton's Oilous General in Chicago
WASHINGTON, APRIL 2. [Special Telegram to The Journal.] Secretary J. Sterling Morton arrived, in Washington from his home in Nebraska this evening and is at the Coast. He spent a couple of days with his sons in Chicago and mingled with friends at the fairgrounds. He will be at his post in the Agricultural department tomorrow, ready for business.
While in Chicago on Monday he went around to the hall where the silver convention was called to convene with the intention of looking in upon the proceedings. He was surprised to meet the delegates coming away from the hall.
"Hey, what's the matter, what are you leaving for?" inquired Secretary Morton.
"Well," replied a delegate, "the hall is too small; you see we have 1,700 delegates and the hall will only accommodate 1,500."
"I should think you could easily overcome that difficulty," said the secretary of agriculture, dryly.
"How's that," exclaimed the delegate, nonplussed.
"Why, by simply passing a resolution expanding the size of the hall. You can do it as easily as you resolve to expand the currency by adopting the free coinage of silver." The delegate, the secretary says, hasn't seen the point of his observation yet.
Titanic was the worst over.
The secretary learned a great deal about the financial situation in Chicago and the condition of the markets, and he is inclined to believe the worst is over and that confidence will begin to return. He says the abnormal disparity between the prices for wheat, corn, and hogs is wholly due to the laws of supply and demand, and that the withdrawal of money from banks by the fearful and snow of the land and persons who want the markets to break is causing the failures in businesses in many instances. He says mechanics and laborers have been frightened and withdrawn their savings from banks, causing the latter to close and forcing their employers to the wall.

The rcptibllcatis of Pottawftttnmln county
held their convention yesterday In the court
house , and signaled the event by taking a
flat-footed stand In opposition to the pro
hibitory law as it now stands on the statute
books , Previous conventions liavo dealt
with the question In milk and water fashion ,
but never until yesterday have the republi
cans declared themselves In favor of a
change In n planner that gave no chnnco for
a mistake. No ilcslro was expressed for a
Rtatc-wldo Abolition of prohibition , but only
that the present law might be modified In
such n way as to permit the liquor traftlc to
bo regulated In places where experiments
have shown It to be Incapable of being sup
pressed.
The convention was ono of thn most largely
attended conventions held In the city for
years , nearly every preelnet in the county
being represented by Its full quota of dele
gates. The principal purpose of the meet
ing was to select delegates to the state con
vention , which tncots In DCS Molncs on the
Kith. A brief preliminary mooting was held
In the morning , nt which n temporary organ
ization was clTcctcd by the appointment of
frank Turner of Knox township as chair
man and Dr. V. K Treynor of thU city sec
retary. A. S. Hnzolton called the conven
tion to order. In the nbs.imco of Chairman
Ohio Knox of the county central committee.

The following committees wcro anpolntcd

seven districts Into which the county is
divided :

A committee was also appointed to recom
mend a chairman of the county central com
mittee for the eiiHiilng year. It was com
posed as follows : Frank Shlnn of Carson , J.
J. Sti'adman of Council Bluffs , T. U. llnrds-
loy of Walnut , Alexander Oslen of Grove
township , and IJ. F. Dryden of Hardln town
ship. The convention then adjourned until
" p. m. and the committees went to their de
Altornoon Si'
At the afternoon session the committee on
credentials made Its report , that there were
no contesting delegations.
The committee on permanent organization
recommended T. H. Bardsley of Walnut for
chairman and 10. J. Abbott of Council Bluffs
for secretary. The report was unanimously
adopted.
Chairman Bardsloy then took the stand ,
saying , as he did so , that hovoiM rather bo
chairman of the republican county conven
tion than a democratic president of the
United States , much as he appreciated the
Joys of a fisherman's life. Ho then pro
ceeded to arraign the democratic party lor
forcing the Sherman silver bill upon the
country nnd thus bringing nbout the present
demoralized state of the country's finances.
Ono of the most Important things of the
day was the report of the committee on res
olutions , which dealt with money and prohi
bition ijucstlons In the following manner :
ItrsoltlttoiiK Adoptml.
Hcsolvod , That wo regard the uresent pnr-
alysls In business as caused principally by
well grounded fear * on the part of thu Ameri
can people that the democratic party may
carry out the declaration contained In Its last ,
national platform and therehy unsettle tlio
economic and llnnnclal policies of the hist
thirty years. We have fulth In the Intulll-
KCIICO nnd patriotism of the American pooplu-
but have hut little , if nny , confidence In the
party now In power. Wo fnvor the adjust-
ineni of our revenue laws so as to foster
American labor , dlvnlfy American workingmen -
men , n ml MICH ro n balance of trndo with nil
foreign nations. Wo believe In homo Indus
tries und home markets , nnd earnestly call
upon the people of thu state and nation toen-
couragu thu multiplication and cstnblMi-
mcnlof home Industries , and to maintain thu
MUIIU hy purchasing und usln ; ; hoinu products.
Wo favor bimetallism , and thu readjustment
of the coinage of thu country so as to secure
n parity between gold mid silver.
Resolved , That wo favor a modification of
the present prohibitory laws so as to author
ize any county by a majority vole to regulate
the liquor tnilllc hy hixh license and penalties.
\Vu aru prepared for this dual policy , towltt
State vldo prohibition as thu rnlu and county
regulation by way of choice. Wo hulluvo that
such a departure will place thu saloon under
legal subordination In localities where the '
present li\v : Is inoperative , and give tlmo nnd
opportunity for thu growth of u niora healthy
public opinion as to the sanctity of thu law ,
and as to thu duty of oucillcneo to existing
laws.
These resolutions mot with the hearty ap
probation of the delegates and they were
adopted by a solid vote.
The committee appointed to recommend a
candidate for chairman of the county cen
tral committee made its report , nominating
A. S. llazclton of Council Bluffs as chairman
and T. It. Bardsloy of Walnut assistant.
The report wus unanimously adopted.

Gillilaml , the secretary of the Omaha di
vision of Iho order , whoso charter was re
voked the other day by Grand Chief Ham-
soy , Is a resident of this city , ntid ho has
In his possession the books nnd
papers of the division , besides about
$700 la cash. Yesterday J. L. Sulllvnn of
Omaha commenced proceedings In the dis
trict court to gut possession of thcso books
and papers and the cash by means of a writ
of replevin. In the petition Sullivan alleges
that Itamsey has trrestcd the charter of the
organization nnd that Gilllland has consequently
quently no further clnlm on the property. A
replevin bond of $2,000 wus llled , signed by
Sullivan nnd the Council Uluffs Savings
bank * , by John Uercshcim , its president.
SherilT Hazcn went to the residence of
Gilllland last evening , in company with Sul
livan nnd George Wright , his atttorney.
They did not know that Gilliland
was not there , but sucli proved to
he the case , nnd two trips to
his residence failed to reveal any trace of
him. The fact is that Gilllland has gone to
Salt Lake City , and there ho is likely
to stay for several days , at least until
he has given Sullivan plenty of time
to sweat , and fret. The $700 of the
organization's funds in his hands we kept
on deposit in ono of the local hanks , hut
they are not there now , for Gilllland drew
tlicw out preparatory to his departure , and
no ono knows where they were put.
Ho evidently got nn Inkling 01
the action that was likely to be
taken by the olllcials of the order and con
cluded to give them the horse laugh. No
one , not even the ofllcinls. Hints that tncro is
anything out of thti way in what helms done ;
he has simply taken advantage of tho' fact
that ho happens to have the Inside track for
the time being to keep the other fcllutrt on
the outside as long as possible.

Mr. Christiansen , the young man recently
cashier at the Hock Island depot , denies that
there "Vas any criminality on his part in re
gard to the shortage discovered thero. Ho
admits thnt there was a shortage in his
books of about 1700 , and that ho
paid this amount , hoping that
in this way there would bo no
, further 1 publicity or trouble about it. Ho [
says ho does not know how this shortage
occurred or where the money went to. but is
quite certain that ho did not take it. Ho
admits that his books are m bad shape and
that ho was behind In his work , but says the
trouble was that ho wus in such poor health
that ho was unable to attend to business St
days at n time and that work ill
on his hands so that ho could not
give the matter proper attention. On
account of his health and the arduous duties
of his position ho tendered his resignation
last .March , and at that time the cash was
about $3 over. Ho was urged to remain
In the olllco and did so until the
latter part of Juno , when his resigna
tion was accepted , but during that
tlmo he was suffering so from Ill-health and
bothered so with extra work that In did
not balance his cash during all this tlmo ,
and it was during this period , ho claims ,
that the shortage occurred , Ho denies also
having made any complaints to thu Chicago
cage ofllco concerning Mr. Itoff , tlio agent
lii'ro , or that ho sought In any way to put
the blame on him for the condition of nffnhs.
Ho says that the hooks do not show any
crookedness and in fact denies uyorythlng l
except the face of a mysterious shortage In
his cash , which ho has been unable to ac
count for , niut-whlch ho has settled in full.

The hog market took the biggest drop In
the history of the South Omaha yards yes
terday morning , the slump being nn even dolmen -
lar on the hundred.
It was a discouraged looking lot of stock
men that stood about the yards this morn-
Ing. The market opened BO cents lower
thnn Tuesday nnd a few sales were made
lo shippers at thcso llgurcs.but by 10 o'clock
no purchnsnrs wcro to be found.
Armour of Chicago wired his man to buy
nt , fS.Tfl , but when this word wns received no
ono : wns willing to sell.
The packers did not como on the market
at nny stage of the game. The few sales thnt
were mnilo were to shippers. The receipts
were l.iiOO ,
There has nol been much Ufa In Iho hog
niarkot for a wcok past , although prices
hnvo kept up well. When the bottom fell out
of the provision market Tuesday , however ,
It wns at once predicted that the hoc mnrkci
would go to pieces yesterday. Tno packers
have not bought much 'of anything this
week.
' This wreck in the hog mnrkot , " said n
well known stock dealer , "will bo the first
genuine taste the farmers have hnd of what
Is generally termed hard limes. It will glvo
the ngricuilura 1 interests a tnsto of what
the merchants nil over the country hnvo
been chewing on for several weeks. For the
last year or moro the farmers' hnvo been
getting good strong prices for all of their
products , but they will now fool keenly this
unheard-of drop In llvo pork. "
11 What nro the prospects for the mariiot
tomorrow ? " was nsked n dealer.
"Thero nro no prospects at nil , " was the
reply. "Tho market ts dead right now.
There Is no ncllon whatever. The receipts
may bo largo tomorrow , and they may bo
light , but as long ns prices are where they
nronow there will bo nothing moving except
for the fresh meat trade. "
Will Not Affect the I'ucUora.
The fact that porlc dropped W a { barrel
Tuesday made n great deal Of taiK In ihls
particular hogopolls. All sorU of rumors
wcro current about the South Omaha packing
houses and the busy people who spent ! most
of their tlmo loafing around nnd talking
about people who are active started the report -
port that the Cudahy company had failed.
The only excuse for any such rumor was the
report that Jack Cudahy of Chicago dropped
several thousand dollars.
A reporter forTitu BIIE called at the pack
ing house nnd saw Mr. Cudahy. Ho said :
"Tho drop in pork wns a big ono and will bo
n hnrd blow on every one in the business in
a way. It will not effect our company to
nmotiut to anything , nna I wish you would
say that the failure of John Cudahy In Chicago
cage will not nilcct us in the least. He was
not a member of this .firm or connected with
it in any manner.
Manager Noyes of the Hammond company
said the drop in pork would not affect his
company. They were packers and did not
speculate.
Manager Foster at Swift's also said that
the slough In pork would not cost him any loss
of sleep. In fact It would not affect any of
ho packers. No member of his firm specul
ated and while It was'tho biggest drop In
one ho had ever experienced , they would
ese nothing.

Fred Wilson hired a livery team in South
Omaha from Mr. O'Neill and drove to
JcllovuoTuesday , whore ho represented him-
elf to be a certain colonel of the reg

Wilson made himself free with everyone ,
and in fact was shown a pretty good time.
When ho awoke yesterday morning in the
lotcl and began to realize what hail hnp-
icned he became nervous. Ho was also told
iy a friend that an officer from Paplllon was
on his trail and would place him under
irrcst on sight. Wilson then wanted wings
that ho might fly , but not having anything
of that sort ho concluded to do the next best
thing and walked out of town.
Mr. O'Neill sent to Bellevue and got his

NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Pottawattamie County Republican Assembly in Convention.
BOLD STAND TAKEN ON PROHIBITION
Proletarian Mineral Accords the Law and Its New Structure Today in Council Bluffs
The Republicans of Pottawattamie county held their convention yesterday in the courthouse, and signaled the event by taking a flat-footed stand in opposition to the prohibitory law as it now stands on the statute books. Previous conventions have dealt with the question in milk and water fashion, but never until yesterday have the Republicans declared themselves in favor of a change in a planner that gave no chance for a mistake. No desire was expressed for a State-wide Abolition of prohibition, but only that the present law might be modified in such a way as to permit the liquor traffic to be regulated in places where experiments have shown it to be incapable of being suppressed.
The convention was one of the most largely attended conventions held in the city for years, nearly every precinct in the county being represented by its full quota of delegates. The principal purpose of the meeting was to select delegates to the state convention, which meets in Des Moines on the 6th. A brief preliminary meeting was held in the morning, at which a temporary organization was constituted by the appointment of Frank Turner of Knox township as chairman and Dr. V. K. Treynor of this city as secretary. A. S. Hazleton called the convention to order. In the absence of Chairman Ohio Knox of the county central committee, the following committees were appointed on credentials, permanent organization, resolutions and delegates, one member being selected for each committee from each of the seven districts into which the county is divided:
Credentials: A. S. Hazleton, G. W. Fletcher, Perry Kernoy, A. W. Johnson, W. B. Bainbridge, C. S. Hubbard and T. A. Creweik.
Permanent Organization: M. U. Frisbee, Alex Osier, B. W. Gregory, Jacob Hanson, A. N. Lutid, A. F. Clatterbuck, H. F. Dryden.
Delegates: T. U. Hardsley, G. M. Putnam, Frank Shin, G. L. Wilkinson, C. G. Saunders, Theodore Guittar, James Patterson.
Resolutions: L. F. Mapes, Columbus Boydonalds, J. J. Olson, T. W. Caster, E. J. Abbott, Spencer Smith, L. W. Koss.
A committee was also appointed to recommend a chairman of the county central committee for the ensuing year. It was composed as follows: Frank Shin of Carson, J. J. Stadman of Council Bluffs, T. U. Hardsley of Walnut, Alexander Osier of Grove township, and L. F. Dryden of Hardin township. The convention then adjourned until 4 p.m. and the committees went to their respective deliberations.
At the afternoon session the committee on credentials made its report, that there were no contesting delegations. The committee on permanent organization recommended T. H. Bardsley of Walnut for chairman and E. J. Abbott of Council Bluffs for secretary. The report was unanimously adopted.
Chairman Bardsley then took the stand, saying, as he did so, that he would rather be chairman of the republican county convention than a democratic president of the United States, much as he appreciated the joys of a fisherman's life. He then proceeded to arraign the democratic party for forcing the Sherman silver bill upon the country and thus bringing about the present demoralized state of the country's finances.
One of the most important things of the day was the report of the committee on resolutions, which dealt with money and prohibition issues in the following manner:
Resolutions Adopted.
Resolved, That we regard the present paralysis in business as caused principally by well-grounded fear on the part of the American people that the democratic party may carry out the declaration contained in its last national platform and thereby unsettle the economic and financial policies of the last thirty years. We have faith in the integrity and patriotism of the American people, but have little, if any, confidence in the party now in power. We favor the adjustment of our revenue laws so as to foster American labor, divide American workingmen, and maintain a balance of trade with all foreign nations. We believe in home industries and home markets, and earnestly call upon the people of the state and nation to encourage the multiplication and establishment of home industries, and to maintain the stability by purchasing and using home products.
We favor bimetallism, and the readjustment of the coinage of the country so as to secure a parity between gold and silver.
Resolved, That we favor a modification of the present prohibitory laws so as to authorize any county by a majority vote to regulate the liquor traffic by high license and penalties. We are prepared for this dual policy, to-wit: state vide prohibition as the rule and county regulation by way of choice. We believe that such a departure will place the saloon under legal subordination in localities where the law is inoperative, and give time and opportunity for the growth of a more healthy public opinion as to the sanctity of the law, and as to the duty of officials to existing laws.
These resolutions met with the hearty approval of the delegates and were adopted by a solid vote.
The committee appointed to recommend a candidate for chairman of the county central committee made its report, nominating A. S. Hazleton of Council Bluffs as chairman and T. B. Bardsley of Walnut as assistant. The report was unanimously adopted.
Will Go to Cincinnati.
The delegates selected to represent Pottawattamie county at the convention and at the meeting of the Republican League clubs to be held in connection therewith are as follows:
George M. Putnam, F. G. Weeks, Perry Kernoy, L. F. Potter, E. A. Consiglio, G. T. Sellers, T. H. Bardsley, T. W. Caster, E. K. Harris, G. L. Wilkinson, Jacob Hanson, C. G. Saunders, W. Armistead, E.

HENNISON BROS.
To Whom It May Concern.
Two men entered Alexander Bros.' shoe store last evening and introduced themselves as Colorado sufferers in search of shoes. One of them carried the other's coat on his arm and the man in his shirt sleeves sampled the goods. The fellow with the coat went over by the counter, and, after looking about, said he would not wait any longer, and left the store. The man who was doing the purchasing asked for a reduction on account of the hard times he had passed through in Colorado, and when this was refused said he wouldn't buy. Before they had gone half a block from the store they ran across Officer Wheeler, who noticed something suspicious about their actions and ran them in. It was found that the men with the coat on his arm had smuggled a pair of shoes into the coat before leaving.
When the pair were loaded into the patrol wagon one of them dropped something behind him in the road, and some indulgent person who happened to be looking on conceived the idea that it was a dynamite bomb. The report spread like wildfire that the police had bagged a couple of real live anarchists, but the fact was soon revealed that the supposed bomb was nothing but a piece of candle. On the way up one of them tried to slip something into the cushion of the wagon, but Driver Sandal noticed the operation and made an investigation, which resulted in the discovery that it was a skeleton key which the man was very anxious to get out of sight. In their effects several other skeleton keys were found. They are doubtless a part of the gang that has been doing the numerous jobs of sneak thievery that have been daily occurrences. They gave their names as William Chamberlain and John Allen.
Warring Factions Will Air Their Grievances In the House Courts.
The difficulty which has been occupying the attention of telegraphers all over the west for the past few days, and in which Omaha division No. 8, Order of Hallway Telegraphers of North America and D. G. Hainssey, the grand chief of the order, are the parties most directly concerned, was transferred to town soil yesterday afternoon and there is reason to believe that there will be a long period of litigation before it is finally decided which is in the right. F. E. Gilliland, the secretary of the Omaha division of the order, whose charter was revoked the other day by Grand Chief Hainssey, is a resident of this city, and he has in his possession the books and papers of the division, besides about $700 in cash. Yesterday J. L. Sullivan of Omaha commenced proceedings in the district court to get possession of these books and papers and the cash by means of a writ of replevin. In the petition Sullivan alleges that Hainssey has misused the charter of the organization and that Gilliland has consequently no further claim on the property. A replevin bond of $2,000 was filled, signed by Sullivan and the Council Bluffs Savings bank, by John Burcham, its president. Sheriff Hazen went to the residence of Gilliland last evening, in company with Sullivan and George Wright, his attorney. They did not know that Gilliland was not there, but such proved to be the case, and two trips to his residence failed to reveal any trace of him. The fact is that Gilliland has gone to Salt Lake City, and there he is likely to stay for several days, at least until he has given Sullivan plenty of time to sweat, and fret. The $700 of the organization's funds in his hands were kept on deposit in one of the local banks, but they are not there now, for Gilliland drew them out preparatory to his departure, and no one knows where they were put.
He evidently got an inkling of the action that was likely to be taken by the officials of the order and concluded to give them the horse laugh. No one, not even the officials, hints that there is anything out of the way in what he has done; he has simply taken advantage of the fact that he happens to have the inside track for the time being to keep the other faction on the outside as long as possible.

FOR FURBELLUM, WHITNEY & CO.,
Council Bluffs, IA.
Christiansen, the young man recently cashier at the Rock Island depot, denies that there was any criminality on his part in regard to the shortage discovered there. He admits that there was a shortage in his books of about $1700, and that he paid this amount, hoping that in this way there would be no further publicity or trouble about it. He says he does not know how this shortage occurred or where the money went to, but is quite certain that he did not take it. He admits that his books are in bad shape and that he was behind in his work, but says the trouble was that he was in such poor health that he was unable to attend to business for days at a time and that work piled on his hands so that he could not give the matter proper attention. On account of his health and the arduous duties of his position, he tendered his resignation last March, and at that time the cash was about $3 over. He was urged to remain in the office and did so until the latter part of June, when his resignation was accepted, but during that time he was suffering so from ill-health and bothered so with extra work that he did not balance his cash during all this time, and it was during this period, he claims, that the shortage occurred. He denies also having made any complaints to the Chicago cage office concerning Mr. Hoff, the agent here, or that he sought in any way to put the blame on him for the condition of affairs. He says that the books do not show any crookedness and in fact denies anything except the face of a mysterious shortage in his cash, which he has been unable to account for, but which he has settled in full. Such is the story as he tells it.

Ask your grocer for Domestic soap.
The National Benevolent association of Minneapolis made the defendant in a law suit which was started in the district court yesterday by Mrs. Christina Sevarts. She alleges that sometime in 1880 her husband took out two policies of insurance with the defendant company for $2,500 each, making her the beneficiary. Her husband died, November 1892, but the company refuses to pay either of the policies. She demands damages of $5,000.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Tumble in Pork that Was Enough to Make "Pig" Inane,
HOGS TAKE A DROP OF A BIG DOLLAR
Harness Turn in
From Freight Eager Eman
at the Mural City Stock Exchange Burden's First
United States of Hogs Tight Outlook by
No Money (if Diverse.
The hog market took the biggest drop in the history of the South Omaha yards yesterday morning, the slump being an even dollar on the hundred.
It was a discouraged looking lot of stock men that stood about the yards this morning. The market opened 50 cents lower than Tuesday and a few sales were made to shippers at these figures, but by 10 o'clock no purchasers were to be found. Armour of Chicago wired his man to buy at 6:15, but when this word was received no one was willing to sell.
The packers did not come on the market at any stage of the game. The few sales that were made were to shippers. The receipts were 1,200. There has not been much life in the hog market for a week past, although prices have kept up well. When the bottom fell out of the provision market Tuesday, however, it was at once predicted that the hog market would go to pieces yesterday. The packers have not bought much of anything this week.
"This wreck in the hog market," said a well-known stock dealer, "will be the first genuine taste the farmers have had of what is generally termed hard times. It will give the agricultural interests a taste of what the merchants all over the country have been chewing on for several weeks. For the last year or more, the farmers have been getting good strong prices for all of their products, but they will now feel keenly this unheard-of drop in live pork."
"What are the prospects for the market tomorrow?" was asked a dealer.
"There are no prospects at all," was the reply. "The market is dead right now. There is no action whatever. The receipts may be large tomorrow, and they may be light, but as long as prices are where they are now there will be nothing moving except for the fresh meat trade."
The fact that pork dropped $5 a barrel Tuesday made a great deal of talk in this particular hog market. All sorts of rumors were current about the South Omaha packing houses and the busy people who spent most of their time loafing around and talking about people who are active started the report that the Cudahy company had failed. The only excuse for any such rumor was the report that Jack Cudahy of Chicago dropped several thousand dollars.
A reporter for The Bee called at the packing house and saw Mr. Cudahy. He said:
"The drop in pork was a big one and will be a hard blow on everyone in the business in a way. It will not affect our company to any extent to anything, and I wish you would say that the failure of John Cudahy in Chicago will not affect us in the least. He was not a member of this firm or connected with it in any manner.
Manager Noyes of the Hammond company said the drop in pork would not affect his company. They were packers and did not speculate.
Manager Foster at Swift's also said that the slump in pork would not cost him any loss of sleep. In fact, it would not affect any of the packers. No member of his firm speculated and while it was the biggest drop he had ever experienced, they would see nothing.
Fred Wilson hired a livery team in South Omaha from Mr. O'Neill and drove to Bellevue Tuesday, where he represented himself to be a certain colonel of the regular army. Under this guise, it is said that Wilson made himself free with everyone, and in fact was shown a pretty good time. When he awoke yesterday morning in the hotel and began to realize what had happened, he became nervous. He was also told by a friend that an officer from Papillion was on his trail and would place him under arrest on sight. Wilson then wanted wings that he might fly, but not having anything of that sort, he concluded to do the next best thing and walked out of town.
Mr. O'Neill sent to Bellevue and got his son back; it is not likely Wilson will be found in those parts for several moons.

Jersey's Crack "Schoolboy" Comes Down to Hunt the Milwaukee Scooter.
DETROIT, Aug. 2. About 1,590 saw the second day's bicycling racing at the Detroit Driving park under the auspices of the Michigan division League of American Wheelmen.

Choosing a Cricket Team.
Before the season closes the Omaha Cricket club expects to have opportunities to try its prowess against several outside teams. There are plenty of good cricketers in the city, and there is no reason why the Omaha boys should not hold their own with any eleven that can be brought against them. The trouble is to know whom, from so many, to put into the Omaha team.
Next Saturday at 11:00 a trial match will be played on the cricket ground at Twenty-second and Spancecr streets. The teams have been chosen by Mr. A.S. Gleave and Mr. A. Robb, and those who show to the best advantage in this game will be given preference in picking the teams to represent the club in the coming engagements:
A.S. Gleason's Eleven: F.B. Marshall, U.W. Taylor, G.I.S. Wilson, H. Laurie, A.S. Gleason (captain), H. Howell, J. Muir, G.H. Gregory, J.R. Florence, A.W. Anderson, Dr. Young.
A. Robb's Eleven: W. Vaughan, J.C. Doyle, C.S. Callum, E. Hart, A. Gavin, A. Robb (captain), W. Gavin, H. New, Dr. McGuire, D. Johnstone, C.H. Young.
Britannia Wins Again.
LONDON, Aug. 3. The yacht race for the Meteor challenge shield, presented by the German emperor, was the chief yachting event today. The course covered about 100 miles. Only two yachts started, the prince of Wales' Britannia and Clark's Saturn.
The race was won by the Britannia, as Mr. Carroll and Captain-Burr of the Navaho, basing their assertion upon the performance of the Yankee boat in Monday's race, say they are confident she will beat the Valkyrie in the race on this side of the water.
Choosing the Teams for the Tournament.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3. The third round of the singles in the tennis tournament continued today. The unfinished match between McCormick and Wright was concluded, the former winning. C.L. Noel defeated Hycroft; Chase defeated Myers; McCornick beat Page.
The consolation matches resulted: Mundy defeated Hatfield; Scabourg beat Bailey; S.H. McCornick beat White, and then beat Haveloneyer; G.L. Yorrick defeated Sanborn.

WORLD'S FAIR OFFICIALS HEAVILY FINED
They were Severely Punished for
the Injunction later by the Board's Security Sunday Clouds; An Appeal.
Cancino, Aug. 2, Judge Stein, in the superior courts this morning, declared the World's fair directors and officials directly responsible for closing the gates on Sunday, July 83, and violated the Injunction previously issued by him, on the ground that Jackson park is a public recreation ground and the people could not be excluded, and they have been cited for contempt in closing the gates. He ordered Directors Gage, Hutchinson, Horton, McNally and Kerfoot to be lined $1,000 each. Director Lawson received a fine of $500 on the ground that he voted to close, in the belief that this Injunction had elapsed; Director General Davis, President Higgins and National Commissioners Masse, St. Clair and Forbes were discharged on the ground that they merely carried out the directions of the management. The attorney for the fair prayed for an appeal from the decision. At the conclusion of the arguments, Judge Stein granted an appeal.

quarters tlmt tbo oonstlluUoimHty of
tbnt measure Is Already doomed. But
tbo power of tbo states to enact mensIon
tires for tbo regulation of railway rates
is ono wblcb , though often Allnokod ,
bus never Ixion authoritatively dontud.
An examination of the course of tnaxi *
mum rnto llllgallon will show tlmt tbo
above-mentioned conndonoe of the milmo
way ftttornoys is by no means so well
founded ns they would have us bollovo.
Maximum rate laws Ural came into
tbo United Stales courts in conneclion
with the granger legislation of the
early 70's. The railways at that tlmo
had ns llttlo disposition to obey tbo
laws duly enacted by tbo state loglsla187
tttros as they now havo. and when they
violated their provisions nnd the cases
came to bo hoard their confidence In the
ability of their attorneys to Bcuiiro nn
nlllnnatlon of their unconstltntlonalily
was jiwt ns oulspokon as at prosont.
13ut they found lhat it was not so easy
to Imvo their own way as thoy"hail 1msil
nglucd. All Iho cases then appealed
wore hoard together by the suwromo
court and tlio judgments wore similar in
every instance.
The Ilrst suit decided was that of
Munn ve Illinois , involuing the question
of maximum rates for elevators find
warehouses , and it was hero held that
tbo act of tbo general assembly of tbo
state of Illinois fixing such charges was
In no way repugnant to the constitution
of the United Stales. Chief Justice
Wuitc , who delivered Iho opinion of Iho
court In all tbcso cases , insisted Hint
private property when devoted lo public
interests becomes subject to public regumi
latious. Ho wont on lo say : "Down to
tbo adoption of the fourteenth amendin
ment it was not supposed that statutes
regulating the use or oven llio price of
tbo use of private property necessarily
deprived an owner ofhis property without
duo process of law. The amendment docs
not change tbo law in Ibis particular , it
simply prevents the stales from doing
Hint which will operate us such a deB
privation. " And when it was objected
that'such a power was dangerous , ho reor
pliedVo : know that this is a power
which may bo iibus-ed , but that is no
argument against its existence. For
protection against abuses by legislation ,
the poplo must resort to the polls , not
to the courts. "
The principle bore enunciated was
extended to all the so-called granger
cabas. In Chicago , Burlington & Quincy
Railroad company vs Iowa , the act of
the Towa legislature of 187-1 , entitled ,
" / n Act to Establish Reasonable Max I-
mum Hates of Charges for the Transportation -
portation of Freight and Passengers
on Iho Different Roads of This
Slate , " was uphold as strictly
within the authority of that body ,
In Polk vs Chicago & Northwestern
Railway company the court aflirmod the
constitutionality of the Potter law fixing
maximum' rates for transportation upon
Wisconsin railways. Here ngaln Chief
.TiLstico Wnilo explained the underlying
principle as follows : ' 'Where property
has been clothed with a public interest
the loglblnturo may fix a limit to that
which shall in law bo reasonable for its
use. This limit binds the courts as well 1
as the people. If it has been improperly
fixed the legislature , not the courts ,
must bo appealed to for the change. "
Similar decisions were made in respect
to rt maximum rate law passed by the '
Minnesota legislature in Winona & St.
Peter Railroad company vs Blake and
later in tbo railroad commission
cases in respect to a Mississippi [ '
law of 1881 , which established
corlain maximum rates and autbor-
i/ed a commission to establish others.
The same ruling was made once more '
by the supreme court when the railroads
contested tbo constitutionality of an
Arkansas statute of 1337 fixing raaxi-
mum passenger fares as decided in Dow
vs Beidolman.
The only recent case that has been
carried to the supreme court of tbo
United States , and which lira resulted :
in some measure of success for tbo con-
tentions of ttio railway attorneys , is line
Minnesota milk case , decided some three
years ago. The dissenting opinion in
this case claims that it practically re-
vor.scs the principle of Munn vs Illinois ,
but the majority does not appear to have
desired to go so far in their judgment.
It.as
This case really hold that a hnv was
unconstitutional because depriving
persons of their property with ;
out duo process oi law if
it delegated to A commission
the authority to fix rates finally without
anpcal to the regularly constituted ju
diciary us to the reasonableness of the
rates so fixed. It did not directly quos-
tlon the power of the states to prescribe
maximum rates for railway transporta
tion within their territorial limits. taDn
the ether hand , tliu right of the state
to so limit charges was expressly reaf
firmed In Jubtico Miller's concurring
opinion in these words : "In regard to
the business of common carriers ed
to points within u single state , that
state has the legislative power to estab
lish the rates of compensation for such
carriage. "
From what source the railroad attor
neys have derived all their confidence in
their case is not , in vlow of the long )
series of decisions by the United States l
supreme court , so easy for un ordinary
mortul

Nothing ' better was to bo expected of
Mr A. J. W.irnor , president of the Dl-
metallic league , than the charge tha't
the legislation of 187.T was a crime. For
years that gentleman , who Is a well-
meaning man , so far as his general re
lations are concerned , and ngoodcltly.cn ,
has been nursing this idea and nothing
in the I way of facts or of argument could
possibly convince him that the law of
187 , which stopped the coinage of the
standard sllvor dollar , was not the result
of a criminal conspiracy against the
while metal. Everybody who has in
vestigated the matter knows that the
so-called silver demonetization act of
1&73 was the result of careful doHbora-
tlon and that at the tlmo of its passage
silver was worth more than gold at the
ratio of JO to 1. It. Is a matter thatought
to bo generally familiar that for eighty-
om years during which gold and sllvor
were on equal terms In the mints of the
country there had been coined only a
llttlo over 8,000,000 , sllvor dollars and
that for years before 1873 not a dollar of
this amount was in circulation. All well-
informed persons , including Mr.
Warner , must also know that when the
much-abused legislation was enacted
and for a long time before the owners of
silver did not take their metal to the
mints for the sulliciont reason that it
was more profitable to sell it in the
market. It was only when sllvor began
to decline as a consequence of increas
ing production that the silver mine
owners began to agitate for a restora
tion of silver to the position it occupied
prior to 1S7I ) a position it can never
regain by any legislation of the United
States so long as the other great nations
refuse to give it its former recognition.
The crime which the president of the
Bimetallic league and other free silver
advocates denounce had its origin sev
eral years before the legislation of 18'
was ; passed. A bill to revise the laws
relating to mints , assay offices and coinage -
ago [ was introduced in the United States
senate in 1870 , and among other things
it omitted the standard silver dollars
from among the coins thereafter to bo
issued from the mints. This bill passed
the senate in 1871 and was bent
tc the house. It was under consideration -
tion from time to time for nearly a
year , when a substitute was olTored
which provided for the coinage of a 384-
grain silver dollar. This passed the
lioiibO and wont to the senate , where it
was amended so as to substitute for the
38-1-gratn ! dollar n dollar of 42i ) grainsto
bo used exclusively in the trade with i
China and known as the trade dollar.
After a conference committee had agreed
to this measure it was concurred in by
both houses and became a luAv by the
approval of President Grunt on February -
ary J2. 1873.
It is thus incontrovortibl v shown by the
record that for nearly three years the
silver legislation of 1873 had been before
congress ana that during that time
every phase of it was thoroughly con-
bidnred and debated. John JayJvnox ,
who was deputy controller of tbo eur-
rency in 1870 , is authority for the stale
ment that the bill introduced in that
year proposing to discontinue tbo issue
of silver dollar pieces was printed thir-
teen times by order of congress and
once by the commissioners rovisinsr the
statutes , and was considered during
five successive sessions. It must
rbo apparent to everybody whoso judg-
fment is not warped by prejudice that
there 1 was nothing in the nature of a
conspiracy connected with this legisla-
tion , and if it was a crime the record
shows that the silver men of Unit period
made no effort to prevent it. The ex
planation is found in a statement made
in the house of representatives in 1872
that "silver is out of relation to gold ,
being worth now $1.03 , "
THK aurn IIASIS ,
* Mr. Allen W. Thurman , permanent
chairman of the silver convention at
Chicago , said in his address , which evi i-
dently bad boon carefully prepared : i'I
deny that gold alone nllords a sufficient
basis upon which the circulating medium
and credits of this country should rest. "
It may bo pertinent to remark that this i
Mr. Thurman is the son of the eminent
democratic statesman who was the
candidate for vice president of the
United States in 188S , nnd who In
the days of the greenback la -
tion craze was ono of the irs
of the demand for an unlimited issue by
the government of legal tender notes ,
The comparatively young gentleman
who was selected to preside over the
silver convention therefore came hon >
estly by the opinions ho now holds re
garding silverjmd as his distinguished
father departed from the currency views
which ho entertained nearly a quarter :
of a century ago , so it is by no means
Improbable that the son will In the
course of tlmo revise his opinions and
put himself upon the platform on which
the democrats of a generation ago stood ,
and none of them more firmly than the
hoof
veteran statesman , Alien G. Thurman of
Ohio.
The assumption that gold does not
afford a sufficient basis upon which the
circulating medium and credits of this
country should rest Is so obviously er-
roneous that It is surprising any man orof
intelligence would oroploy it in advocacy
of a double standard. When has there
been a time , except during the suspon-
1111slon of specie payments Incident to the
war , that the circulating medium
nnd the credits of the country
mbhave not rested securely upon [ >
gold. The resumption of specie pay- >
monts was accomplished in 1870. las
there been an hour since that time that
the gold basis has not been sufficient to
maintain the credit of the government
and keep the circulating medium unim-
paired ? Would there bo any financial
disturbance now if the country xvassuie
that the gold basis would bo maintained ?
Is it-it llio distrust that pervades 11m
whole country dltd largely to Iho fcnr
that the gold bit /uny / tflvo way to n
sllvor basis nnd Hint wo shall substitute
n sllvor for n gfliVStntidavd ) ?
The sllvor atlv&utes Jny great stress
upon the nosorlloTv.lhnt there Is not gold
enough with wjjjjjh to do business , but
"
granting this tor"bo true it would not
justify the free coinage of silver nt the
existing rntlo , 'aV ' they demand. But
what is Jho fact JIH 1,0 the supply of gold ?
Simply that It Isi greater now thnn over
before in the hfs ftry of the world , and
under the stlmul'm iow being given to
its production tliO'Stipply promises to bo
largely increased. According to the
most trustworthy statistics the world's
average yearly gold production from
1873 to 1887 was $103)2T ! ) > ,000. , Fur
five years since 1887 the average pro
duct 1ms boon $110,033,000 , , nnd in 1802 it
rose to 3135,000,000. , , The share of the
United States in the production of gold ,
apart from the amount used in the arts ,
has been in excess of the growth in pop
ulation nnd business. While the supply
of gold is increasing the demand for it
in international exchanges nnd In do
mestic commerce does not grow in equal
rntlo. The various forms of credit now
do the work of exchanges In interna
tional trade which formerly required
gold , BO that commercial transactions
amounting to millions are now olTected
without the use of n dollnr in gold.
That motnl retains its function as the
standard of value , but in actual use it
plays but n small part in the world's ex
changes.
The supply of gold as a basis of circu
lation and credits Is ample under pres
ent conditions , but it would not continue
to bo If the policy of the free sllvor men
wore to prevail. That would speedily
result In depleting the country of gold
and substituting a silver basis , upon
which every dollar of the remaining
currency would depreciate in purchas
ing power and the government credit
would sillier , to thn irreparable injury of
every interest but that of the silver pro
ducers.

AUGUST WILL FILL MOST POSITIONS.
The nomination of Thomas B. Reed for Speaker of the House of Representatives is a foregone conclusion. The Republicans in the House will certainly give him the compliment of a nomination for this position. There can be no doubt about his capacity for the job in every way, and he will have a great opportunity during the coming Congress to demonstrate this.
FROM PRESENT INDICATIONS, IT LOOKS PRETTY CURTAIN THAT MR. REED WILL HAVE THE GREAT SATISFACTION OF SEEING HIS PARLIAMENTARY METHODS, WHICH WERE SO VIGOROUSLY ABUSED BY THE DEMOCRATS OF THE FIFTY-FIRST CONGRESS, ADOPTED AND PUT INTO PRACTICE BY THE PRESENT DEMOCRATIC HOUSE, AND THAT WITH THE CONCURRENCE, IF NOT AT THE SUGGESTION, OF A DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION.
THE RAILROADS CUT BACK WORKING FORCES.
The railroads, here as elsewhere, are cutting down their working forces and restricting the hours of labor in their shops. What a pity that they are unable to ascribe their action to the baneful effects of the maximum freight rate law.
Another MORTGAGE DISPLAYS HIS GOOD SENSE.
An interested person might possibly ask whether there are any other official bonds on file at the state house, the signatures to which have become worthless.
MISSOURI MINERS THREATEN TO STRIKE.
Missouri miners now threaten to inaugurate a strike in sympathy with the Kansas strikers unless the operators agree to arbitrate their differences. On the merits of the controversy, the public is not well informed, but that this is a poor time for workingmen to strike is without doubt the universal public opinion.
CHICAGO PAPERS DESCRIBE THE ARMY OF UNEMPLOYED.
Chicago papers describe the army of unemployed in that city, which is being constantly increased by large daily additions, and warn immigrants that work is not to be had at any wage. The allurements of a large city prove irresistible to the mountain laborers, and they continue to pour in notwithstanding the unfavorable outlook. The resulting misery must in many cases be ascribed to the hasty notions of the sufferers themselves.
THE REPUBLICANS WILL OF COURSE GIVE THOMAS B. REED THE COMPLIMENT OF A NOMINATION FOR SPEAKER.
The Republicans in the House of Representatives will of course give Thomas B. Reed the compliment of a nomination for Speaker. There can be no question about his capacity for the job in every way, and he will have a great opportunity during the coming Congress to demonstrate this. From present indications, it looks pretty certain that Mr. Reed will have the great satisfaction of seeing his parliamentary methods, which were so vigorously abused by the Democrats of the Fifty-First Congress, adopted and put into practice by the present Democratic House, and that with the concurrence, if not at the suggestion, of a Democratic administration.
THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE RAILROAD MAXIMUM FREIGHT RATE LAWS IS DOOMED.
We are hearing so much nowadays of the condition of the railway attorneys in their ability to obtain a decision of the federal court declaring the Nebraska maximum freight rule invalid and void, that the improvement has painted ground in many quarters that the constitutionality of that measure is already doomed. But the power of the states to enact legislation for the regulation of railway rates is one which, though often challenged, has never been authoritatively decided.
An examination of the course of maximum rate legislation will show that the above-mentioned condensation of the term "way furniture" is by no means so well founded as they would have us believe.
Maximum rate laws first came into the United States courts in connection with the granger legislation of the early 1870s. The railways at that time had as little disposition to obey the laws duly enacted by the state legislatures as they have now, and when they violated their provisions and the cases came to be heard, their confidence in the ability of their attorneys to secure an interpretation of their unconstitutionality was just as outspoken as at present.
But they found that it was not so easy to have their own way as they had imagined. All the cases then appealed were heard together by the Supreme Court, and the judgments were similar in every instance.
The first suit decided was that of Munn vs Illinois, involving the question of maximum rates for elevators and warehouses, and it was here held that the act of the general assembly of the state of Illinois fixing such charges was in no way repugnant to the constitution of the United States. Chief Justice Waite, who delivered the opinion of the court in all these cases, insisted that private property when devoted to public interests becomes subject to public regulations. He went on to say: "Down to the adoption of the fourteenth amendment it was not supposed that statutes regulating the use or even the price of the use of private property necessarily deprived an owner of his property without due process of law. The amendment does not change the law in this particular, it simply prevents the states from doing that which will operate as such a deprivation. " And when it was objected that such a power was dangerous, he replied: "We know that this is a power which may be abused, but that is no argument against its existence. For protection against abuses by legislation, the people must resort to the polls, not to the courts. "
The principle enunciated was extended to all the so-called granger cases. In Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad company vs Iowa, the act of the Iowa legislature of 1871, entitled, "An Act to Establish Reasonable Maximum Rates of Charges for the Transportation of Freight and Passengers on the Different Roads of This State," was upheld as strictly within the authority of that body. In Polk vs Chicago & Northwestern Railway company the court affirmed the constitutionality of the Potter law fixing maximum rates for transportation upon Wisconsin railways. Here again Chief Justice Waite explained the underlying principle as follows: "Where property has been clothed with a public interest, the legislature may fix a limit to that which shall in law be reasonable for its use. This limit binds the courts as well as the people. If it has been improperly fixed, the legislature, not the courts, must be appealed to for the change. "
Similar decisions were made in respect to the maximum rate law passed by the Minnesota legislature in Winona & St. Peter Railroad company vs Blake and later in the railroad commission cases in respect to a Mississippi law of 1881, which established certain maximum rates and authorized a commission to establish others. The same ruling was made once more by the supreme court when the railroads contested the constitutionality of an Arkansas statute of 1887 fixing maximum passenger fares as decided in Dow vs Beideman.
The only recent case that has been carried to the supreme court of the United States, and which has resulted in some measure of success for the contentions of the railway attorneys, is the Minnesota milk case, decided some three years ago. The dissenting opinion in this case claims that it practically reverses the principle of Munn vs Illinois, but the majority does not appear to have desired to go so far in their judgment. This case really holds that a law was unconstitutional because depriving persons of their property without due process of law if it delegated to a commission the authority to fix rates finally without appeal to the regularly constituted judiciary as to the reasonableness of the rates so fixed. It did not directly question the power of the states to prescribe maximum rates for railway transportation within their territorial limits. On the other hand, the right of the state to so limit charges was expressly reaffirmed in Justice Miller's concurring opinion in these words: "In regard to the business of common carriers operated to points within a single state, that state has the legislative power to establish the rates of compensation for such carriage. "
From what source the railroad attorneys have derived all their confidence in their case is not, in view of the long series of decisions by the United States supreme court, so easy for an ordinary mortal to understand. WITH Governor Boies out of the field, with a plain straightforward platform avoiding complication with all sides issues and with honest men in nomination who inspire the confidence of the people, Iowa republicans will have difficulty in finding an excuse for defeat at the state election this fall. Butting with good men and a thoroughly republican platform they will not possibly suffer defeat. Nor ought there to be any trouble in finding good men to place upon the ticket about to be framed by the state convention this month. A number of names have been mentioned in connection with the gubernatorial place, most of them of men at once capable and popular. Of these, HONOR, would serve better than ex-Senator James Harlan, Senator Harlan has been a life-long republican and represents republicanism in all its meaning. He has held high office and acquitted himself creditably in many capacities. To lead in a campaign that promises to restore to the republican party the full control of the Iowa state government would crown with honor a long career constantly devoted to the interests of the public.
Nothing better was to be expected of Mr. A. J. Warner, president of the Demetallized league, than the charge that the legislation of 1873 was a crime. For years that gentleman, who is a well-meaning man, so far as his general relations are concerned, and a good citizen, has been nursing this idea and nothing in the way of facts or of argument could possibly convince him that the law of 1873, which stopped the coinage of the standard silver dollar, was not the result of a criminal conspiracy against the white metal. Everybody who has investigated the matter knows that the so-called silver demonetization act of 1873 was the result of careful deliberation and that at the time of its passage silver was worth more than gold at the ratio of 16 to 1. It is a matter that ought to be generally familiar that for eighty-four years during which gold and silver were on equal terms in the mints of the country there had been coined only a little over 8,000,000 silver dollars and that for years before 1873 not a dollar of this amount was in circulation. All well-informed persons, including Mr. Warner, must also know that when the much-abused legislation was enacted and for a long time before the owners of silver did not take their metal to the mints for the sufficient reason that it was more profitable to sell it in the market. It was only when silver began to decline as a consequence of increasing production that the silver mine owners began to agitate for a restoration of silver to the position it occupied prior to 1873; a position it can never regain by any legislation of the United States so long as the other great nations refuse to give it its former recognition.
The crime which the president of the Bimetallist league and other free silver advocates denounce had its origin several years before the legislation of 1873 was passed. A bill to revise the laws relating to mints, assay offices and coinage was introduced in the United States senate in 1870, and among other things it omitted the standard silver dollars from among the coins thereafter to be issued from the mints. This bill passed the senate in 1871 and was sent to the house. It was under consideration from time to time for nearly a year, when a substitute was offered which provided for the coinage of a 384-grain silver dollar. This passed the house and went to the senate, where it was amended so as to substitute for the 384-grain dollar a dollar of 420 grains to be used exclusively in the trade with China and known as the trade dollar. After a conference committee had agreed to this measure it was concurred in by both houses and became a law by the approval of President Grant on February 12, 1873.
It is thus incontestable that it is shown by the record that for nearly three years the silver legislation of 1873 had been before congress and that during that time every phase of it was thoroughly considered and debated. John Jay Jay, who was deputy controller of the currency in 1870, is authority for the statement that the bill introduced in that year proposing to discontinue the issue of silver dollar pieces was printed thirteen times by order of congress and once by the commissioners revising the statutes, and was considered during five successive sessions. It must be apparent to everybody whose judgment is not warped by prejudice that there was nothing in the nature of a conspiracy connected with this legislation, and if it was a crime the record shows that the silver men of that period made no effort to prevent it. The explanation is found in a statement made in the House of Representatives in 1872 that "silver is out of relation to gold, being worth now $1.03."
The assumption has been put forward by Mr. Allen W. Thurman, permanent chairman of the silver convention at Chicago, that "gold alone does not afford a sufficient basis upon which the circulating medium and credits of this country should rest." It may be pertinent to remark that this Mr. Thurman is the son of the eminent democratic statesman who was the candidate for vice president of the United States in 1888, and who in the days of the greenback legislation craze was one of the leaders of the demand for an unlimited issue by the government of legal tender notes. The comparatively young gentleman who was selected to preside over the silver convention therefore came honestly by the opinions he now holds regarding silver, and as his distinguished father departed from the currency views which he entertained nearly a quarter of a century ago, it is by no means improbable that the son will in the course of time revise his opinions and put himself upon the platform on which the democrats of a generation ago stood, and none of them more firmly than the venerable statesman, Allen G. Thurman of Ohio.
The assumption that gold does not afford a sufficient basis upon which the circulating medium and credits of this country should rest is so obviously erroneous that it is surprising any man of intelligence would employ it in advocacy of a double standard. When has there been a time, except during the suspension of specie payments incident to the war, that the circulating medium and the credits of the country have not rested securely upon gold? Since there has been an hour since that time that the gold basis has not been sufficient to maintain the credit of the government and keep the circulating medium unimpaired? Would there be any financial disturbance now if the country was assured that the gold basis would be maintained? Is it the distrust that pervades the whole country did largely to the fear that the gold basis would be given way to a silver basis and that we shall substitute silver for gold?
The silver statutes lay great stress upon the necessity that there is not gold enough with which to do business, but granting this for the true it would not justify the free coinage of silver at the existing ratio, which they demand. But what is the fact regarding the supply of gold? Simply that it is greater now than over before in the history of the world, and under the stimulation now being given to its production the supply promises to be largely increased. According to the most trustworthy statistics the world's average yearly gold production from 1873 to 1887 was $103,627,000. For five years since 1887 the average product has been $110,033,000, and in 1892 it rose to $135,000,000. The share of the United States in the production of gold, apart from the amount used in the arts, has been in excess of the growth in population and business. While the supply of gold is increasing the demand for it in international exchanges and in domestic commerce does not grow in equal proportion. The various forms of credit now do the work of exchanges in international trade which formerly required gold, so that commercial transactions amounting to millions are now affected without the use of a dollar in gold. That metal retains its function as the standard of value, but in actual use it plays but a small part in the world's exchanges.
The supply of gold as a basis of circulation and credits is ample under present conditions, but it would not continue to be if the policy of the free silver men were to prevail. That would speedily result in depleting the country of gold and substituting a silver basis, upon which every dollar of the remaining currency would depreciate in purchasing power and the government credit would suffer, to the irreparable injury of every interest but that of the silver producers.

Jaijit Singh, king of Kapurthala, sat by the sad sea waves at Manhattan beach on Sunday and ate American clams, while the band played "After the Ball" and other selections from the grand old masters. The king was accompanied by his secretary, Dowlan Ham, and others, and everybody was glad to know that Jaijit had a little fun. He was pleased with American clams; he was pleased with American women. All of which goes to show that Jaijit Singh is a singularly appreciative sovereign, and gives promise that he will enjoy himself as long as he may be with us.

Prudent farmers are not feeling the effects of the prevailing hard times to any appreciable extent. Nor will they through the winter should the country be so terribly unfortunate as to witness a continuation of the present conditions during that period. In short, the intelligent farmer is on top these days and his lot is the cheeriest one of all. Present facts enforce what the Times has all along advocated, a larger population. America needs more tillers of the soil and still higher degrees of cultivation and more improved methods. Diversified farming will make any industrious man of ordinary common sense entirely independent and he will come nearer realizing freedom in its fullest sense than will these in any other vocation. Let there be more agriculturists, Americans to the farms.

A colt's head is on exhibition at Beatrice, the features, that is about as strange a spectacle in the monstrosity line as has ever been seen in the west. The head is fairly well developed, except that the eyes are about half an inch apart and that it has neither nostrils nor an upper jaw. The lower jaw protrudes out four or five inches and the tongue comes out where the nostrils should be. The monstrosity was born also at the farm of Ed McCleve near the city this morning, and lived only about an hour. The body and limbs were perfectly developed, but it was also destitute of a tail. Mr. McCleve will endeavor to have the peculiar head of the animal preserved and sent to some museum.
Globe-Democrat: Something over 100 national banks have closed their doors this year, but no person holding a note of any of these banks will lose a cent by their failure. The chances are that not a depositor will lose a cent. However, very unfortunately the condition would be worse had the national banks of issue not been in operation now.
Philadelphia Record: Comptroller Rodgers gave the panic-mongers a sock-dollager in the neck with his statement showing the steadfastness and substantial solidity of the national banks of the country. Less than 1% of deposits during six months of stress, doubt, and money stringency. This is a showing that has no suggestion of weakness about it; and it should command admiration as well as confidence.
Philadelphia Times: The first great need of the country is honest money and restored public credit, and all other issues are now, and must remain, secondary until that act of justice to the people and their government shall have been accomplished. It is not necessary that silver should be rejected as money; indeed, such action would be unwise; but it is a supreme necessity that a government dollar shall be a dollar in value, or the representative of a dollar in value, whether gold, silver, or paper; and it should be so clear in its intrinsic value that the business world must respect it.
Brooklyn Eagle: Experienced business men say that there was never a better opportunity to make money than now, They do not suggest what is commonly called speculation, that is buying for a rise. It is safer to buy and hold the stocks or bonds permanently, or until a better income can be derived from selling them and investing the money in other securities. The people chiefly interested in creating a belief that the times are bad are men who want to escape the payment of their debts. They may bring down upon their own heads the ruin which they prefer should befall their creditors. The times are good and they are going to be better.
Philadelphia Ledger: Forecasts respecting the manner in which Congress deals with more uncertain elements than forecasts of the weather, but a nice program has been outlined by one of the Washington correspondents. Congress is to get to work promptly, and to repeal the purchasing clause of the Sherman Act without delay. Then there is to be long discussion of a substitute measure, with the outlook uncertain, and the tariff is not to be taken up, except in committee, until the financial question is out of the way. The important thing about this announcement is that it promises a prompt and unconditional repeal of the silver purchasing clause of the Sherman Act. It will be time enough to discuss other things after this has been accomplished.

Corn bread, corn cakes, and the various other forms in which that grain is made palatable, are now served at four different kitchens at the exposition. Juliet Carson cooks it at the New York kitchen.

It has been arranged that on the evening of the 17th, the denizens of the plaisance will hold a grand international ball and congress of all nations at the Natatorium building. It will be the biggest society event of the year. It will also be made one of the most spectacular events the world has ever seen. Nothing of the kind was ever attempted before because the conditions have never been such that such a strange lot of people could be got together. Forty-five different villages will take part in the opening grand march. The participants will all be in native costume, but there will be no straining after grotesque effects.
In the Dakota exhibit are many samples of petrified wood, cut and beautifully polished at Sioux Falls. The petrifactions come from Arizona, but Sioux Falls is the only place in the country where it can be cut. It is many times harder than steel, and it requires twenty days to cut, with the aid of diamond dust, a log twelve inches in diameter. Here also cuttings of silicate wood, found in the dead forests of the Black Hills, and which are especially interesting as proving one of nature's most marvelous processes. The ground where this material is found in large part is silica, and by capillary attraction the substance was taken with the moisture up into the trees, gradually and for hundreds of years, till all fiber was replaced by it.

During the summer gales in vogue again down by the wave-lapped there,
Clad in man's equipment; broad straw hats and ribbons too, Frederic.
She is Miller's own that comes, she beams upon the boys,
And novels to lose at all her wonder-filled equations.
She walks upon the sandy beach the while the moon looks down,
And says the things to Tommy that last night to human.
Is she lovely? Jinks a deal of hope, and
Tompkins feels that he,
From what she says, alone can fill her heart with ecstasy.
Young Brockley's manly bosom with a wondrous amiability mulls
Tempting her love-light in her eye, while munching caramels
Which from the heated city went that day has bronchitis to her,
Just as, indeed, that self-summoning light makes Wilkins muscles stir.
And in the ballroom every night she waltzes with Jack Vane
As if he never, never hoped to dance the waltz again,
Though later on the hotel porch she loiters at
Perrine
As the sun she thought that he alone of all men was divine.
Such trifling? With those manly hearts seems very wrong; but then
We must remember, Brown and Hicks of old,
Are summer men,
And this is by no means their first brief visit to the shore.
Each knows her well, for each has met the summer girl before.

How France Handles her Silver.
("The Democrat.")
"How is it that France, with a population of only 40,000,000, can keep 700 million in silver at par with gold?" asks a Virginia editor mentioned by Senator Vest. The answer is very simple. France's mints are closed to silver while open to gold. She has more gold than silver and her gold is increasing, while her silver is stationary, which means that it is decreasing relatively to gold.
Those facts are well known to everybody in France, as they are to everybody outside of France who knows anything about the monetary question. Hence nobody in France is worried over the situation, no distrust is excited among her people, she has no silver problem and she is able to keep silver at par with gold.

JACKSON PAIUC , OiitiAuo , July 31. To the
Editor of Tim BRK : Prompted by political
hnto , locality projudlco or personal spite , so
many falsehoods have been circulated In re
gard to the Nebraska exhibit , that contra
dictions of some of the most flagrant of the
falsehoods would appear to bo in order , and
yet , so numerous have boon the untruthful
accusations and statements that one scarce
knows where to begin.
Slnco the appointment of Commissioner
General Gavncau a certain element has
waged war not only against him.'but against
the work and workers as a whole , resorting
to the most unscrupulous misrepresenta
tion and baro-faued falsehoods
, utterly re
gardless of and greatly to the injury of the
state. The building and exhibits have bcon
belittled nnd ridiculed , nud these engaged
in accomplishing what has bcon accom
plished have bcon maligned , and their
honesty and competency questioned. And
yet during all this time what have these
mnllgners doiio to help the exhibit ? What
have they contributed in thought or work ?
Absolutely nothing ! It has boon their mis
sion to down and seek to counteract , in so
far as possible , nny good results likely to
How from the work of others , i'hoy have
boon merely faultmiders and nothing else.
How Noliraxku Jtciilly Compiircs. ,
Tno simple facts are , that , considering the
amount of money expended thereon , Ne
braska has the best building and the best
showing in the way of exhibits on the
grounds , nnd no person of good judgment will
ask Nebraska , with her small aupropriation.
to make n showing equal to states having
from eight to ten times the amount of money
to expend. Nebraska's agricultural exhibit
is almost universally acknowledged to bo ono
of the best exhibits in the Agricultural 1
building. Our honey exhibit is not surpassed
in excellence by any , nnd our forestry ex
hibit Is simply marvelous for prairie stato.
Wro show more varieties of timber than any
other state in the union , and in live or six
varieties the largest specimens on the
grounds. . . In a most forcible way , too , we
{ illustrate J the feasibility of timber culture in
Nebraska. Our educational exhibit is not
equaled by any other state of her ago , and it
is lilted up in a most attractive style , with
furniture equal to the very best of any state ,
old or young. Our butter exhibit in the
Dairy building is equal to the best , both in
quality and attractive arrangement ; nnd the
foundation is being laid for fruit nnd live
stock exhibits altogether creditable to a
state so now as ours.
These are thu simple facts , acknowledged
by the Chicago and eastern press , and by all
unprejudiced peoplo. It Is left for Nebraska
papers to belittle nnd decry , and this policy
has been carried on to such au extent that
many people from Nebraska como here
prejudiced to start with to such nn extent
that they close their eyes , and oven , with
out looking nt building or exhibit , join the
chorus of this political denunciation. Is it
not tlmo for such warfare
Jo stop ? Are wo
not at least entitled to the bonollt of having
the truth told ? These who criticise Ne
braska's showing most have never soon our
exhibits ut all , and hence speak in igno
rance , prompted only by prejudice. Thou
sands who have taken the pains to examine
the Nebraska exhibits speak favorably , and
I hereby append the partial expressions of
some of the most prominent visitors.
Opinion * of I'romlncnt I'linplo.
Senator Charles F. Mandorson said : "Ne I-
braska has u line building , conveniently
arranged , well located and handsomely
decorated. Her exhibits are Urst-class and
I consider the outrageous misrepresentation ! :
of some of the Nebraska papers u shamo. "
Senator Alvin Saunders said In effect the
same , expressing moat agreeable surprise at ,
the entire showing made by the state.
Robart W. Furnus regarded tlio showing
IIS a whole a decidedly creditable ono , out
suggested that hu would show a llttlo moro '
corn In the oar and n llttlo moro grain In the
sheaf in the agricultural exhibit.
Judge Post said : "I nm greatly pleased
and greatly surprised nt thu apno.irnnce of
the Nebraska building , and It must bo plain
to all Intelligent visitors that the building
and the oxnibits have boon shamefully mis
represented. "
Governor Crounso likewise expressed
agreeable surprise and great satisfaction
with both the building ami the exhibits.
Senator Pope of Friend , said : "Consider
ing i the amount of money expended Nebraska :
makes a f > 0 per cent better showing than any
other state represented on the grounds. "
cI The fact Is , representative men from Nebraska -
braska I by the hundreds have admired and
com men ted favorably upon the Nebraska idK
dibit. I Misrepresentations have been K10
nnumerous .that it would bo a great under-
taking t to'nttcmpt to mention all In detail ,
but 1t 1 I do doom It proper to refer to some of
1t t the most palpable. H has been stated that
the t commissioner general has failed to give
1t itemized 1 statements of expenditures. Tills
statement Is absolutely false , Thu vouchers
show Item by Item In
, giving each paso the
J proper name of eacn expenditure , however
small.
Cm i not i : tlnmto In Advance.
The confounding of '
estimates for money
for future use with
accounting for >
money
already expended is responsible for the
gross misrepresentation. If a man starting >
on u six months tour of
Europe '
, were re
quired to glvo an Itemized statement of the
expenses as a condition precedent to secur
ing tlio funds hu ror
simply could not go , for
that would bo imposing upon him an iuipoH-
slbillty ; whereas hu could , with very llttlo
care , after his return , furnish au itemized
statement and full accounting for the funds.
This is exactly n parallel case. No living
man could tell in advance of expenditure ,
the items necessary to carry on the exhibit ,
yet there Is uo difficulty whatever in
com
plete subsequent accounting. It was not
the lack of itomlzation but some of the Items
.that the auditor objected to. Right hero it
would Hoeni proper to say that the only stnto
in the union asked to conduct an exhibit
without advancement of funds for the purpose -
pose is Nebraska. That this puts this state
to a sorlous disadvantage must bo apparent
without argument.
Another falsehood peddled all over the
n-
stnto U the insertion IJifU no ting NoMed

can lings Is true , nnd there was no necessity
for any. ,
Alnmt tlio l.inployeg.
In giving the list of employes for the stito
buildings the n nines oC'koveral persons have
been glvon who h.tvo not-.boon employed hero
for months mid several who were never , nt
any time employed horo. ' For instance , it Is
mndo to appear that Dnvld L. Cartan is an
employe , whereas ho hnsnot bcon upon the
nay roll since Iho 1st of Juno. Q. Clements
is also made to appohr'hs ' nn employe hero ,
whereas ho is simply the photographer who
took vlows In Nebraska some tlmo ago for
thn forestry exhibit. Mrs. Langworthy is
also put down ns nn employe , whereas she
has never been on the pay roll horo. Some
tlmo afro she did some work In Nebraska col
lecting material for the exhibit , and for that
only she was palili
Again was It charged that my sister Is
drawing n salary of f'JO ' per month as stenog
rapher and typewriter , while the fact Is
that she has never drawn a single dollar
from the state for such service nor pre
sented n claim for any , though ut > to my
appointment ns secretary a salary of KW per
month for such service was paid , but no
relative of nilno drew that pay. In my con
tract with Commissioner General Qarneau ,
It wns understood that there should bo no
charge against the state over nnd above my
salary and ullownnco for expenses , for ex
penses for stenographic or typewriter serv
ice , which I would pay for out of my own
salary.
There are several more misrepresentations
quite ! us flagrant ns these mentioned , In the
prctomled salary list. The fact Is Miat Ne
braska has fewer employes and pays smaller
salaries than nny other state represented on
the grounds , having anything like ns credit
able exhibits In the various department ! ) .
1'olltlo * IX'ot Coinldored.
It has also been stated that nearly all of
the employes nro from Omaha and tlmt
nearly all are democrats , while the facts are
that nearly all are republicans nnd that
Lincoln is qulto ns well provided for as
Omaha. Among the Lincoln list of em
ployes I mention the following : Prof. F. W.
Taylor , superintendent of horticulture ;
Prof. E. T. Hartley , superintendent of
forestry ; Mrs. J. II. Smith , hostess ; Miss
Kmina UIllcsplo , bookkeeper nud custodian of
register ; Mrs. C. Wells , postmistress ; Mr.
A. D. Gregory , janitor ; Prof. F. A. Barton ,
superintendent of educational exhibit.
At previous periods during installation of
exhibits there were employed from Lincoln
Mr. nnd Mrs. VV. F. Coolo. M. Scothorn and
Miss Elizabeth It-win. Here is a list In
excess of what can properly bo charged up
against Omaha. In politics the superin
tendents of nearly all the departments nro
republicans , Hartley of forestry , Taylor of
horticulture , Dunsmoro of live stock , Ash-
burn of dairy , Whltcomb of apiary , Barton
of education nnd the secretary , consequently
quently the charge that the commissioner
general has applied polities In the
administration of his ollloi il duties Is clearly
disproved. The statement that ho has ex
pended state money for cigars , boor , wine ,
etc. , Is likowlso false , not'a single dollar
having been thus expendedall his enter
taining having been ilono at his private ex
pense , making it clearly his own private
business , while , on the other hand , nearly alt
the other states have a'lu'rgo entertainment

Nebraska's dcdicntloaxxerclscs were pro

yet it cost the staia'Of Nebraska only the
Insignificant sum of 24 , us against ? 0,000 for

Ella Hangrin , alias Holgrcen , commenced
a criminal career rather young but her con-
lldenco caused her to bo caught nnd now she
promises to bo deprived of her freedom for
an indefinite period.
Ella rapidly developed Into an export
house worker nnd she has made quite a
success of her criminal practices during the
past seven days. There have boon many com
plaints of thefts of jewelry .to the ( ) olicb of
late and it was supposed that it was the
work of export sneak thieves. Captain
Mostyn , who has been working on the case
secured evidence enough yesterday to war
rant him in arresting the young woman. She
had in her possession a gold watch and con
siderable jewelry which has been stolen
from several residences.
The girl's ' mode of procedure was to po tea
a residence and apply for work. If she was
retained she would stop just long enough
to Hwlno any valuables lying around
loose. When she didn't want to
hire out as ft servant she would claim that
she was an actress taking a rest and wanted
to rent a room. She played this latter uaiiio
yesterday nt n house on South Sovcntotnth
street uud while she was looking at tlio
room for rent stele a gold necklace , a bangle
a bracelet. All thoso. besides other pieces
of jewelry supposed to have been stolen ,
wore found in her possession when searched.
After the urrest the girl confesaod to tlio
thefts and told where she had stolen the
articles. She claims to have stolen the stuff
in order to raise money for n certain young
innn to got out of town. The pollco say that
her work Is that of a professional thief.
Ella Is about 'M year * of nge , but claims to
be 17. She has lived In Omaha for the past
nine yours , nnd resided with her mother on
Twenty-sixth near California streets. The
family wont to Burllnc-ton , la , , to live about
the last of Juno , but lilla preferred to live In
Omaha , and returned hero on July 4 , In
company with a young man , who is wanted
by the pollco , out Is unknown to them nt

NEW YORK , Aucr. 2. It scorns cortnin
that an inward gold movement of good
ar/.o nnd stability his ; at lust sot in. As
nearly us can bo estimated there is bo-
twooii $ -J,000Ol)0"iind ) $5,000,000 on the
way to Now York or ordered from
various foreign countries , principally ,
of course , England. This estimate in
cludes $2,000,000 said to have boon ,
ordered by Lnzard & Froiers , $500,000 to
August Bolinont &Co. , which is to como
on the Spree , and $500,000 to Hoidolbucli ,
Iloichoimer & Co. to bo shipped Wed
nesday. The imports of gold last week
wore $1,752,885 , of which $805,519 came
from Europe , and thuro wore no exports
of tlio precious metal. Naturally the
word by cable from London was that the
outflow of gold to America was caused
by the steady rise in the rate of discount
in the open inarkot , though it was
assorted that the Uank of England
was in a position -to stand the expert -
port of1,000,000 without rais
ing the olHcial rate. The goJd movement -
mont from January 1 to date lias boon :
Imports , $11,757,420 ; exports , $0375.-147 ( ! ;
o.xcess of exports , $54,918,021. , As satis
factory as the inorcasimr receipts of gold
are to Wall strcot , the bankers find that
tlio outward currency movement , which
does not diminish , is correspondingly dis
agreeable. Conservative estimates put
the shipments of currency out of Now
York last week at $9,000,000 , and this
week began unpropitiously with the
shipment today of $1,500,000 or more. A
largo share of it wont to Boston , a good
many thousand to interior points in Now
York state and the remainder went west.
Currency is becoming so valuable a
thing to keep hands on and the demands
for it from other cities are so pressing
and unexpectedly long continued that
the Now York banks are seriously con
sidering the advisability of taking pro
tective measures.

CHICAGO , Aug. 2. A5 last night's

Hero it is : "Wo called upon the Treas
ury department in reference to tlio pur
chase of silver bullion yostonlay , it
being the lant day of July , the required
coin for July not having boon purchased.
Wo urged Ixjforo the woorotary of the
treasury and Acting Director LVosloii
yesterday the importance of completing
the silver purchase. The seorota'ry now
cites Secretary Sherman's conduct fn the
Bland act as justification. Tlio director
admitted that ho was a rank gold
standard man , but said lie was
fair. Both contended that they
must buy silver the saino as
they would buy supplies ior the govern
ment and must consult the London
market as a guido. The people must
aroiiho or bceotno abject slaves of the
gold power. When the gold pow r can
force a democratic secretary to follow
Senator Sherman congress ought to con
sider the adoption of rules that will
compel compliance with the law. "

JySlMl&tAi City Clurk of Illnlr , | THIS IS OMAHA TIMES: A LINCOLN WOMAN
Drove a Thief from Her House and Gave Arrest
Mrs. E. J. Lane, living at 215 South Fourteenth Street, set an example to many of her friends of the sterner sex today by pluckily driving a sneak thief from the upper rooms of her house. She was out in the yard when the thief entered the front door and walked upstairs. Her little girl told her that there was a strange man in the house. After sending the little girl for a neighbor, who boldly walked upstairs after the intruder. The neighbor did not show up, but this fact did not prevent Mrs. Lane from ordering the fellow out of the house. He was engaged in rifling a trunk when she discovered him. He had taken out a suit of clothes and was comparing it with his own physique when he was interrupted. She compelled him to walk down the stairs and out into the street. Then several small boys followed him until they met a policeman. The thing was at once arrested and taken to the station.
After a Bank President.
A. F. Soverign of Guthrie, Okla., has commenced a suit against Jacob Bond, president of the defunct State Bank of Cortland, for recovery of several hundred dollars which, according to the petition filed with the district clerk of Lancaster County, had been wrongfully diverted by the derelict president. Soverign sent a draft to the Cortland bank, with instructions to pay off a certain indebtedness to the Industrial Savings Bank at Lincoln. Bond cashed the draft, but did not post the amount until after the bank had failed. Soverign claims in his petition that Bond willfully delayed posting the amount for the purpose of defrauding him. He further alleges that Bond used the money to speculate and that with it he purchased a lot in East Park addition to College View. In accordance with an affidavit to this fact, the lot was to be attached by Deputy Sheriff Dillon, Reconciler Goodall was also restrained by an injunction from endeavoring to collect certain notes held by Severin from the defunct institution.
Arrested on a Murder Charge.
Bert Howard is under arrest on a rather serious charge. He is a recent arrival in the city and succeeded in getting employment at the Opel house as a runner. He informed the hotel people that he was a married man, and that as soon as he could find a place for his wife, she would join him. Yesterday he picked up the acquaintance of a young lady who is also in search of employment. Telling her that he would find her a place to work, he went to the Opel hotel, engaged a room for his "wife" and afterwards sent her to the place. When the girl was shown to the room, someone remarked that her "husband" would be in soon. She at once disclaimed any knowledge of the fact and at once reported the matter to the police. Howard was arrested today. To the police, he claimed that he had his wife at Creston, Iowa.
At the State House.
C. H. Cornell was at the state house this afternoon to consult with the proper authorities in regard to a very important matter to the people of Valentine, where he lives. It seems for some reason or other, some 1,000 acres of school land in Dawes County has recently been appraised. It is not first-class land, but is suitable for grazing purposes. The growth of the cattle industry in that part of the state has been so rapid that the lands can now be leased to an advantage. The lands will be appraised at once.
O. J. Coleman of Beatrice, and formerly private secretary of Senator Paddock, was at the state house this afternoon.
A. B. C. True, superintendent of the public schools at Tecumseh, was at the office of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction this afternoon on official business.
The State Board of Equalization has been in session all day, but has not yet fixed upon the state levy for the ensuing year.
Commissioner General Garneau's vouchers for the month of July were returned to him this morning for the reason that they were not made out in proper form. Auditor Wood states, however, that the fault did not lie with the commissioner general, as the blanks which had been forwarded to him did not reach him before the vouchers were made out.
Governor Crowe started for Superior this evening to attend the interstate soldiers' reunion.
Private Secretary Andrews starts tomorrow evening for an extended trip to Salt Lake City and other western tourist points. Mrs. Andrews accompanies him.
Banking Clerk Towne made out a new index of the state banks today and when he had completed the work, he stated that since the 5th day of last November, thirty-three banks in Nebraska had gone out of existence. Of this number, ten are in the hands of receivers, three are being wound up by their own officers, seventeen went into voluntary liquidation, two are now in the hands of examiners, and one was moved from Verona to Inland. On the other side of the account, twenty-two new banks have been started since that time, three of which have since suspended.
From the Policing Court.
J. H. Dover was arrested at 2 o'clock this morning upon the complaint of a young lady living at one of the hotels in this city. Dover knocked at the door of her room last night and then threw over the transom a business card upon which he had penciled an insulting proposition. The young lady, who is entirely respectable and a clerk in a well-known dry goods store, resented the proposition and made a complaint to the police. This morning, learning that the case would give her an indubitable publicity, she refused to prosecute and Dover was discharged.
W. A. Cassady, the man arrested last night for forgery, was given a preliminary examination this morning and was held to the district court in the sum of $100 on two complaints. He was unable to give bail, and was taken to the county jail.
The case of the State against Gibbons, embezzling, was postponed for thirty days in order to allow the assaulted time in which to recover from the effects of the scrap.
K. A. Solfert was fined $1 costs for an assault upon Frank Moore.
D. W. Shaffer was arrested on the charge of assault and battery, the complaining witness being John Nordurf. His case was continued until tomorrow.
The police register contained the names of an unusually large number of malefactors this morning and business was lively at the forenoon session for the first time in many weeks.
Lincoln in Brief.
Schloss Bros. & Co. this afternoon commenced suit in the district court against A. Nowneberg, late proprietor of the board clothing house for Myers & Co. and Kempner & Lewis also brought suits in county court for $127.50 and $15 respectively.
P. J. Sullivan, a well-dressed young man, who this forenoon was liberated from the county jail, was immediately re-arrested on another charge of petty larceny. He went at once from the county to the city jail.
Maud Wright and Nellie Fox, two handsome and well-dressed young ladies, who were unrated in the Lavinus block yesterday on the charge of prostitution, deny the impeachment and will bear the case before the courts. They were given a continuance of ten days.
The police authorities have succeeded in identifying the clothing of the unknown man who was found dead on the banks of Salt Creek the other day. The clothing was exceedingly rugged and dilapidated and afforded no clue to the man's identity.
Fremont, Neb., Aug. 3. [Special to THE BEE.] Last night a stranger driving a delivery team stopped at the Secor house, introducing himself as Colonel Guy V. Henry, U.S.A. He ordered supper and had his team taken care of. After supper, he ordered his rig up and drove up to the hotel, where he proceeded to get gloriously drunk. He came back and went to bed about 10 o'clock, but this morning he disappeared, leaving the team behind. Colonel Henry made his quarters at the Secor house when he was in command at the range some years ago and was well known in town, and it is thought that this party discovered that fact and concluded that he had struck the wrong place to have much fun.
FREMONT NOTES ABOUT EVENTS.
Citizen Struggling Against Entitlement
Fremont, Aug. 2. [Special to THE BEE.] Mr. Douglas was quite seriously injured yesterday by the falling of a beam in his barn.
A festive drummer entered one of the loading grocery houses of the city yesterday, arguing and in a controversy accused the head of the firm of lying. He went out on a shutter, so to speak.
The old soldiers of the county have received an invitation to join in the reunion of Washington county's veterans at Arlington on the 23rd and 24th of August. The invitation will doubtless be accepted. Hon. J.K. Pick has been invited to speak and has accepted.
J.J. Lowry has commenced an action in the district court for a partition of property in which he and J.D. Mackey are joint owners. The property comprises much valuable real estate in this city and county.
The Fremont Timberland is making arrangements for a grand reception when its triumphant members return from Milwaukee.
Committeeman Strong of North Bend has called the county prohibition convention to elect six delegates to the state convention for Saturday next in this city.
The state missionary board of the Baptist church is holding an interesting session at the Baptist church in this city. The following members from abroad are registered: Rev. H.C. Wood, D.D., superintendent of missions, Colorado Springs, Colo.; Rev. J.G. Keller, general missionary, Central City; Rev. Kimball, president, Wauneka; B.K. Beanott, first vice president, Lincoln; Rev. F.M. Williams, secretary, Sterling; W.P. Schilling, D.D.; A.W. Clark, Dr. E.T. Allen, Omaha; H.D. House, Nebraska City; T.J. Johnson, Oakland; A.B. Nordborg, A.V. Snyder, Wahoo; K.M. Roderick, Central City; A. Russell, Ord; J.A. Armstrong, Beatrice; T.K. Tyson, Western; S. Bergstead, Valley; Rev. S.B. Hayes, missionary, Culbertson, and Rev. W.H. Tait, Fremont.
A bevy of youngsters, who are old enough to know better, attempted to demolish the frail tenements of the "bud lands" last night by hurling bricks through the windows and doors. The marshal arrived on the scene in time to make a few recognitions which will be followed by liquidation or prosecution.
Among the most heinous crimes committed in the history of the Platte valley occurred yesterday at the home of Charley Johnson, living on the county line between Dodge and Washington counties.
One of the saddest accidents in the history of the Elkhorn valley occurred yesterday at the home of Charley Johnson, living on the county line between Dodge and Washington counties.
In the absence of the parents, a commotion arose in the woodshed. The 10-year-old boy secured his father's revolver and started to the shed. His little sister Dolly, aged 8, had preceded him to the door just in time to get the contents of the weapon in her little brain. The boy had never before handled a revolver and in his excitement it was accidentally discharged.
The funeral occurred at Arlington at 4 p.m. today and was largely attended.
A very pleasant surprise was tendered Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Fowler yesterday, it being the tenth anniversary of their marriage. A handsome and comprehensive set of china of 110 pieces was among the remembrances. Dinner at 5 p.m. was enjoyed by all present and many kind wishes were extended for the future to Mr. Fowler and his estimable wife.
Monday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Ferguson, occurred one of the many happy events which follow each other from time to time in this unassuming but prosperous little city. This time it was a sociable given by the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor of the First Presbyterian church.
Mr. Ferguson being at Grand Island attending to his official duties, it devolved upon Mrs. Ferguson and her little son and daughter, assisted by the society of young people to entertain the company. To watch little John "doing the honors," one would almost imagine the elder John had returned, so untiringly did he perform his part in the program. A number from the sister churches in the place were present, which added greatly to the sociability of the occasion. A fine musical and literary program was prepared, after which cake and lemonade were served. One of the pleasing features of the evening was a vocal solo by Miss Linden, of Vermont, a niece of W.E. Chapman, cashier of the Kearney County bank. Mr. Chapman and family have just returned from a visit to his old home in Vermont and the World's fair, accompanied by Miss Linden, who will spend several weeks in Midland.
Valentine, Aug. 3. [Special to THE BEE.] Sunday, Big Horn, a policeman, was killed by the accidental discharge of a revolver at Rosebud agency. Two factions of the police force were having some words and were brandishing their guns. In disarming them, Big Horn was accidentally shot in the groin and bled to death in a few minutes. The same bullet also pierced the hand of a woman standing near. The disputing parties have become very quiet in consequence of the accident.
The people at Rosebud and the Valentine merchants are stirred up over a petition from Kilgore to change the mail route from Valentine to Rosebud to Kilgore to Rosebud. The change would be a great inconvenience to everyone at Rosebud and would be a very difficult and uncertain road to travel, as it passes through sand hills, sloughs, and bare, unmarked prairie. In winter time the telephone line is the only guide during a blizzard and away from it the mail agent could not travel many days every winter. It would be a great loss of trade to Valentine if much of the present trade would be turned away.
Condition of Nebraska Crops,
BENNETT, Neb., August 2. [Special to THE BEE.] The county received one of the best rains yesterday that it has over had. It rained steadily nearly all day. This will insure a large corn crop all over the county. Small grain is turning out much better than the farmers expected and there will be an abundance of potatoes and all kinds of vegetables.
BLAKE, August 3. [Special to - . -] Crops were never better in Washington county. Corn is very heavy.
VALLEY, Aug. 3. [Special to THE BEE.] Harvest is going on rapidly in Cherry county. Wheat is well cut and of good quality with little waste straw. It is ripening finely for work. Oats are good where they withstood the wind in early May. Corn never looked finer in Cherry county. The toes are in good shape and the cool days and cloudy weather of this week are helping the crop. On the whole, crops and prospects were never better for Cherry county.

A bevy of youngsters, who are old enough to know better, attempted to demolish the frail tenements of the "bud lands" last night by hurling bricks through the windows and doors. The marshal arrived on the scene in time to make a few recognitions which will be followed by liquidation or prosecution.
Among the most heinous crimes committed in the history of the Platte valley occurred yesterday at the home of Charley Johnson, living on the county line between Dodge and Washington counties.
One of the saddest accidents in the history of the Elkhorn valley occurred yesterday at the home of Charley Johnson, living on the county line between Dodge and Washington counties.
In the absence of the parents, a commotion arose in the woodshed. The 10-year-old boy secured his father's revolver and started to the shed. His little sister Dolly, aged 8, had preceded him to the door just in time to get the contents of the weapon in her little brain. The boy had never before handled a revolver and in his excitement it was accidentally discharged.
The funeral occurred at Arlington at 4 p.m. today and was largely attended.
A very pleasant surprise was tendered Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Fowler yesterday, it being the tenth anniversary of their marriage. A handsome and comprehensive set of china of 110 pieces was among the remembrances. Dinner at 5 p.m. was enjoyed by all present and many kind wishes were extended for the future to Mr. Fowler and his estimable wife.
Monday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Ferguson, occurred one of the many happy events which follow each other from time to time in this unassuming but prosperous little city. This time it was a sociable given by the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor of the First Presbyterian church.
Mr. Ferguson being at Grand Island attending to his official duties, it devolved upon Mrs. Ferguson and her little son and daughter, assisted by the society of young people to entertain the company. To watch little John "doing the honors," one would almost imagine the elder John had returned, so untiringly did he perform his part in the program. A number from the sister churches in the place were present, which added greatly to the sociability of the occasion. A fine musical and literary program was prepared, after which cake and lemonade were served. One of the pleasing features of the evening was a vocal solo by Miss Linden, of Vermont, a niece of W.E. Chapman, cashier of the Kearney County bank. Mr. Chapman and family have just returned from a visit to his old home in Vermont and the World's fair, accompanied by Miss Linden, who will spend several weeks in Midland.
Valentine, Aug. 3. [Special to THE BEE.] Sunday, Big Horn, a policeman, was killed by the accidental discharge of a revolver at Rosebud agency. Two factions of the police force were having some words and were brandishing their guns. In disarming them, Big Horn was accidentally shot in the groin and bled to death in a few minutes. The same bullet also pierced the hand of a woman standing near. The disputing parties have become very quiet in consequence of the accident.
The people at Rosebud and the Valentine merchants are stirred up over a petition from Kilgore to change the mail route from Valentine to Rosebud to Kilgore to Rosebud. The change would be a great inconvenience to everyone at Rosebud and would be a very difficult and uncertain road to travel, as it passes through sand hills, sloughs, and bare, unmarked prairie. In winter time the telephone line is the only guide during a blizzard and away from it the mail agent could not travel many days every winter. It would be a great loss of trade to Valentine if much of the present trade would be turned away.
Condition of Nebraska Crops,
BENNETT, Neb., August 2. [Special to THE BEE.] The county received one of the best rains yesterday that it has over had. It rained steadily nearly all day. This will insure a large corn crop all over the county. Small grain is turning out much better than the farmers expected and there will be an abundance of potatoes and all kinds of vegetables.
BLAKE, August 3. [Special to - . -] Crops were never better in Washington county. Corn is very heavy.
VALLEY, Aug. 3. [Special to THE BEE.] Harvest is going on rapidly in Cherry county. Wheat is well cut and of good quality with little waste straw. It is ripening finely for work. Oats are good where they withstood the wind in early May. Corn never looked finer in Cherry county. The toes are in good shape and the cool days and cloudy weather of this week are helping the crop. On the whole, crops and prospects were never better for Cherry county.
Note on the Text ###
The police authorities have succeeded in identifying the clothing of the unknown man who was found dead on the banks of Salt Creek the other day. The clothing was exceedingly rugged and dilapidated and afforded no clue to the man's identity.
Fremont, Neb., Aug. 3. [Special to THE BEE.] Last night a stranger driving a delivery team stopped at the Secor house, introducing himself as Colonel Guy V. Henry, U.S.A. He ordered supper and had his team taken care of. After supper, he ordered his rig up and drove up to the hotel, where he proceeded to get gloriously drunk. He came back and went to bed about 10 o'clock, but this morning he disappeared, leaving the team behind. Colonel Henry made his quarters at the Secor house when he was in command at the range some years ago and was well known in town, and it is thought that this party discovered that fact and concluded that he had struck the wrong place to have much fun.

HASTINGS, Aug. 2. [Special to THE BEAR.] This morning, a typographical error made these dispatches say that the amount of New Mexico land claimed by John B. Keith, one of the heirs of John U. Heath, was 12,200 acres. The amount should have been 12,000 acres, the entire site of twenty-five thousand acres, three Spanish losses, and the property in question will run up to the millions in value.
The long promised telephone connection of Hastings with the outside world, It now stands, will soon be made. This morning, work was begun on the metallic circuit line to Sutton, where connections will be made with the state circuit. The line will probably be completed by the end of the month.
The attendance at the Adams county teachers' institute, now being held in the first ward school, is larger than at any previously held.

EXILED TO ETERNITY.
JACKSON PLACE, Washington, July 31. To the Editor of THE BEAR: Prompted by political hatred, local prejudice, or personal spite, so many falsehoods have been circulated in regard to the Nebraska exhibit, that contradictions of some of the most flagrant of the falsehoods would appear to be in order, and yet, so numerous have been the untruthful accusations and statements that one scarcely knows where to begin.
Since the appointment of Commissioner General Gaynor, a certain element has waged war not only against him, but against the work and workers as a whole, resorting to the most unscrupulous misrepresentations and bare-faced falsehoods, utterly regardless of and greatly to the injury of the state. The building and exhibits have been belittled and ridiculed, and those engaged in accomplishing what has been accomplished have been maligned, and their honesty and competence questioned. And yet, during all this time, what have these maligners done to help the exhibit? What have they contributed in thought or work? Absolutely nothing! It has been their mission to down and to seek to counteract, insofar as possible, any good results likely to flow from the work of others. They have been merely faultfinders and nothing else.
The simple facts are, that, considering the amount of money expended thereon, Nebraska has the best building and the best showing in the way of exhibits on the grounds, and no person of good judgment will ask Nebraska, with her small appropriation, to make a showing equal to states having from eight to ten times the amount of money to expend. Nebraska's agricultural exhibit is almost universally acknowledged to be one of the best exhibits in the Agricultural Building. Our honey exhibit is not surpassed in excellence by any, and our forestry exhibit is simply marvelous for a prairie state. We show more varieties of timber than any other state in the union, and in live or six varieties the largest specimens on the grounds. In a most forcible way, too, we illustrate the feasibility of timber culture in Nebraska. Our educational exhibit is not equaled by any other state of her age, and it is set up in a most attractive style, with furniture equal to the very best of any state, old or young. Our butter exhibit in the Dairy building is equal to the best, both in quality and attractive arrangement; and the foundation is being laid for fruit and livestock exhibits altogether creditable to a state so new as ours.
These are the simple facts, acknowledged by the Chicago and eastern press, and by all unprejudiced people. It is left for Nebraska papers to belittle and decry, and this policy has been carried on to such an extent that many people from Nebraska come here prejudiced to start with to such an extent that they close their eyes, and even, without looking at the building or exhibit, join the chorus of this political denunciation. Is it not time for such warfare to stop? Are we not at least entitled to the benefit of having the truth told? Those who criticize Nebraska's showing most have never seen our exhibits at all, and hence speak in ignorance, prompted only by prejudice. Those who have taken the pains to examine the Nebraska exhibits speak favorably, and I hereby append the partial expressions of some of the most prominent visitors.
Opinions of Prominent People.
Senator Charles F. Manderson said: "Nebraska has a fine building, conveniently arranged, well located and handsomely decorated. Her exhibits are first-class and I consider the outrageous misrepresentation of some of the Nebraska papers a shame."
Senator Alvin Saunders said in effect the same, expressing most agreeable surprise at the entire showing made by the state.
Robert W. Furnas regarded the showing as a whole a decidedly creditable one, but suggested that he would show a little more corn in the ear and a little more grain in the sheaf in the agricultural exhibit.
Judge Post said: "I am greatly pleased and greatly surprised at the appearance of the Nebraska building, and it must be plain to all intelligent visitors that the building and the exhibits have been shamefully misrepresented."
Governor Crouse likewise expressed agreeable surprise and great satisfaction with both the building and the exhibits.
Senator Pope of Friend, said: "Considering the amount of money expended, Nebraska makes a 90 percent better showing than any other state represented on the grounds." The fact is, representative men from Nebraska by the hundreds have admired and commented favorably upon the Nebraska exhibit. Misrepresentations have been numerous. That it would be a great undertaking to attempt to mention all in detail, but it does seem it proper to refer to some of the most palpable. It has been stated that the commissioner general has failed to give itemized statements of expenditures. This statement is absolutely false. The vouchers show item by item in giving each pass the proper name of each expenditure, however small.
It is not uncommon in advance. The confounding of estimates for money for future use with accounting for money already expended is responsible for the gross misrepresentation. If a man starting on a six months' tour of Europe were required to give an itemized statement of the expenses as a condition precedent to securing the funds he would simply could not go, for that would be imposing upon him an impossibility; whereas he could, with very little care, after his return, furnish an itemized statement and full accounting for the funds. This is exactly a parallel case. No living man could tell in advance of expenditure, the items necessary to carry on the exhibit, yet there is no difficulty whatever in complete subsequent accounting. It was not the lack of itemization but some of the items that the auditor objected to. Right here it would seem proper to say that the only state in the union asked to conduct an exhibit without advancement of funds for the purpose is Nebraska. That this puts this state to a serious disadvantage must be apparent without argument.
Another falsehood peddled all over the state is the insertion of nothing from the Nebraska building on the Fourth of July. On that day, the Nebraska building was filled before the pullolo fire Amorics (flags), three of them among the finest on the premises. That there was no cheap bunting decoration to mar the beauty of the American flags is true, and there was no necessity for any.
Among the employees, in giving the list of employees for the state buildings, the names of several persons have been given who have not been employed here for months and several who were never, at any time, employed here. For instance, it is made to appear that David L. Cartan is an employee, whereas he has not been upon the pay roll since the 1st of June. Q. Clements is also made to appear as an employee here, whereas he is simply the photographer who took views in Nebraska some time ago for the forestry exhibit. Mrs. Langworthy is also put down as an employee, whereas she has never been on the pay roll here. Some time ago she did some work in Nebraska collecting material for the exhibit, and for that only she was paid.
Again it was charged that my sister is drawing a salary of $50 per month as stenographer and typewriter, while the fact is that she has never drawn a single dollar from the state for such service nor presented a claim for any, though at my appointment as secretary a salary of $150 per month for such service was paid, but no relative of mine drew that pay. In my contract with Commissioner General Garneau, it was understood that there should be no charge against the state over and above my salary and allowance for expenses, for expenses for stenographic or typewriter service, which I would pay for out of my own salary.
There are several more misrepresentations quite as flagrant as these mentioned in the presumed salary list. The fact is, that Nebraska has fewer employees and pays smaller salaries than any other state represented on the grounds, having anything like as credible exhibits in the various departments.
It has also been stated that nearly all of the employees are from Omaha and that nearly all are democrats, while the facts are that nearly all are republicans and that Lincoln is quite as well provided for as Omaha. Among the Lincoln list of employees I mention the following: Prof. F. W. Taylor, superintendent of horticulture; Prof. E. T. Hartley, superintendent of forestry; Mrs. J. H. Smith, hostess; Miss Emma Dickinson, bookkeeper and custodian of register; Mrs. C. Wells, postmistress; Mr. A. D. Gregory, janitor; Prof. F. A. Barton, superintendent of educational exhibit.
At previous periods during installation of exhibits there were employed from Lincoln Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Coolo, M. Scatchorn and Miss Elizabeth Lewis. Here is a list in excess of what can properly be charged up against Omaha. In politics, the superintendents of nearly all the departments are republicans, Hartley of forestry, Taylor of horticulture, Dunsmore of live stock, Ashburn of dairy, Whitcomb of apiary, Barton of education and the secretary, consequently the charge that the commissioner general has applied politics in the administration of his official duties is clearly disproved. The statement that he has expended state money for cigars, beer, wine, etc., is likewise false, not a single dollar having been thus expended, all his entertaining having been done at his private expense, making it clearly his own private business, while, on the other hand, nearly all the other states have a large entertainment fund, New York alone providing $100,000 for entertainment purposes.
What the Nebraska department accomplished was pronounced by all the papers the greatest success in the line achieved by any state, and yet it cost the state of Nebraska only the insignificant sum of $24,000 against $60,000 for Ohio, and several thousand for some of the other states, not attracting anything like the attention or favorable newspaper comment that Nebraska received. We had two of the finest bands that ever played upon the grounds and the largest and most attractive procession that ever marched through the White City, and all without the expense of a dollar to the state, being simply secured through the friendships made by the commissioner general, whose personal expense for the occasion was many times greater than that of the state itself. But where political hate is to combat, all these things seem to want for naught. It appears time, however, that he should be entitled to have the truth told, and right that the people should hear something from the other side. SETH P. MOODY.

WORKING A BOLD GAME.
Ella Harrington Manufactureroose as a Servant, girl involved in robberies in Australia.
Ella Harrington, alias Holgren, commenced a criminal career rather young but her audacity caused her to be caught and now she promises to be deprived of her freedom for an indefinite period.
Ella rapidly developed into an expert house worker and she has made quite a success of her criminal practices during the past seven days. There have been many complaints of thefts of jewelry, to the police of late and it was supposed that it was the work of expert sneak thieves. Captain Mostyn, who has been working on the case, secured evidence enough yesterday to warrant him in arresting the young woman. She had in her possession a gold watch and considerable jewelry which has been stolen from several residences.
The girl's mode of procedure was to post a residence and apply for work. If she was retained she would stop just long enough to steal any valuables lying around loose. When she didn't want to hire out as a servant she would claim that she was an actress taking a rest and wanted to rent a room. She played this latter ruse yesterday at a house on South Seventh Street and while she was looking at the room for rent stole a gold necklace, a bangle, a bracelet. All those, besides other pieces of jewelry supposed to have been stolen, were found in her possession when searched.
After the unrest, the girl confessed to the thefts and told where she had stolen the articles. She claims to have stolen the stuff in order to raise money for a certain young man to get out of town. The police say that her work is that of a professional thief. Ella is about 15 years of age, but claims to be 17. She has lived in Omaha for the past nine years, and resided with her mother on Twenty-sixth near California streets. The family went to Burlington, IA, to live about the last of June, but Ella preferred to live in Omaha, and returned here on July 4, in company with a young man, who is wanted by the police, but is unknown to them at present. Ella was caught in the net of robbing the rooms of a hotel on the northwest corner of Eighteenth and Harney streets by the landlady of the place, who reported the matter to the police, with a good description of the young woman. Ella acknowledges four thefts, but says that this is her first stop in crime. She is charged with grand larceny.
Coroner's Inquest, last few days.
The coroner's jury was summoned to investigate the death of Jacob L. Gees, who was killed by B&M freight train No. 81, on Monday evening. A number of witnesses were examined, both sides being represented by attorneys. The verdict of the jury was that the deceased came to his death by being run over by the said train and that there was no bribery attached to anyone. The jury recommended that the B&M Railroad company place a night watchman at that crossing.

Is There Too Much Silver?
We have heard that there was an overproduction. We know there has been an overproduction of Moquette Carpets, so we will exchange a few Moquette Carpets for a little silver. The best moquette made, in newest designs, at $1.15 a yard. Made up rugs in large sizes, $1.00 per yard. We shall not change the price until every piece is gone and they are going to.
Small Moquette Rugs at about half usual price.

GOLD IS COMING THIS WAY
Full Tide of the Yellow Boys Has Set in for Good.
AN INWARD MOVEMENT OF GOOD SIZE
Now York links May Take Proactive
Monetary Recordings: Currency Silver-
In Most Meeting at Chicago
Cry Out for Impeachment.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2. It seems certain that an inward gold movement of good size and stability has at last set in. As nearly as can be estimated, there is between $2,000,000 and $5,000,000 on the way to New York or ordered from various foreign countries, principally, of course, England. This estimate includes $2,000,000 said to have been ordered by Lazard & Fischer, $500,000 to August Belmont &Co., which is to come on the Spreo, and $500,000 to Holdenbach, Heichoimer & Co. to be shipped Wednesday. The imports of gold last week were $1,752,885, of which $805,519 came from Europe, and there were no exports of the precious metal. Naturally, the word by cable from London was that the outflow of gold to America was caused by the steady rise in the rate of discount in the open market, though it was asserted that the Bank of England was in a position to stand the export of 1,000,000 without raising the official rate. The gold movement from January 1 to date has been:
Imports, $11,757,420; exports, $7,375,147; excess of exports, $4,382,273. As satisfactory as the increasing receipts of gold are to Wall Street, the bankers find that the outward currency movement, which does not diminish, is correspondingly disagreeable. Conservative estimates put the shipments of currency out of New York last week at $9,000,000, and this week began unpropitiously with the shipment today of $1,500,000 or more. A large share of it went to Boston, a good many thousand to interior points in New York state, and the remainder went west. Currency is becoming so valuable a thing to keep hands on and the demands for it from other cities are so pressing and unexpectedly long continued that the New York banks are seriously considering the advisability of taking protective measures.
Chicago, Aug. 2. As last night's mass meeting in Central Music hall a telegram was read from Colorado's congressmen who are now in Washington. Here it is: "We called upon the Treasury department in reference to the purchase of silver bullion yesterday, it being the last day of July, the required coin for July not having been purchased. We urged upon the secretary of the treasury and Acting Director Losson yesterday the importance of completing the silver purchase. The secretary now cites Secretary Sherman's conduct under the Bland act as justification. The director admitted that he was a rank gold standard man, but said he was fair. Both contended that they must buy silver the same as they would buy supplies for the government and must consult the London market as a guide. The people must arise or become abject slaves of the gold power. When the gold power can force a democratic secretary to follow Senator Sherman, congress ought to consider the adoption of rules that will compel compliance with the law."
"Impeach!" "Impeach!" came from all over the hall as General Weaver concluded reading.
"Impeach!" echoed Senator Stewart in a tone of irony. "Oh, little you know the wonder of the money influence."
Some members of the Colorado delegation to the silver convention were indignant last night that Governor Waite was ignored by the managers of the Central Music hall mass meeting. A delegate said that at this morning's session they will call for him to deliver his speech, and no business will be permitted until the request is granted.
Fred Krysel, a Tenth Street barber, had a narrow escape from serious injury in a runaway yesterday afternoon. He was driving a strange horse which became badly frightened at a passing streetcar. The animal ran past Firman on Tenth, where the buggy was upset. Fred was thrown on the pavement, sustaining several severe bruises. His left wrist was fractured and his nose and face skinned in such a manner as to warrant him almost unrecognizable.

Cntc.ioo , Aug. 2. Prices boomed today on
the Hoard of Trade In the fuceof three froth
failures , Excitement for n ttmo vrnn nt
fever hc.it , Quo collapse wan thnt of the
taoit prominent grnln carrier In Chicago , If
pot in the ontlro country-iC. U. Ugglcston At
Co. Two other firms suspended wcro George
Q. IMrker & Co. nud Thomas Qrolg. The
Dow failures , however , Including that of
Epglcston , grow out of the collapse In pork
and lard corners yestcrdny. When these
wcro out of the way and the other houses
pnssoil the clearing house thcro began a
good feeling.
Wheat took the load with a bound of 4 > fc
In September prlco to ( MJi'o , with the close
ftt 02J/o. Corn cloned ijfo higher , after
telling nearly 2c over last night. Oats
pained Ic. In provisions the packers were
covering their short dales and quotations
rose II. IU for pork , ( Xo ) for larJ and S-JJ-fc for
ribs.
It was n wild opening and sales during the
flrst few minutes eovcro'l n rnnijo of IJfc for
Boptembcr. prices varying widely In different
part * of the crowd , though all sale ? woro-nt
least l > .fu nbovo the Unal flgure * of yester
day.
day.The
The announccmcntof the failure of Parker
fcCo. and Orclg was almost unnoticed , so
far as any effect on prices \v.w concjnied
being regarded ns the logical sequel of
yesterday's downfall of the provision clique.
There wns u decidedly different aspect to
affairs uhen the trades of Eggleston ft Co.
were publicly ordered closed , as they wcro
known to be carrying a large quantity of
cash wheat. Their suspension created a
panicky feeling for a few minutes , during
which the price dropped to B8J c. At
this point It WIIH discovered that there was
no wheat to be sold out for the suspended
firm , P. D. Armour < fe Co. having , It is said ,
assumed their holdings of short wheat. That
left no trades to bo closed for them except
the wheat they had sold sliort against the
cash stuff. That being the case , the market
quickly recovered to 01 e , ami for some
time It fluctuated between GOc and G'JJi'c in
a noi vous way.
When it became apparent thnt no more
failures wcro Imminent the boom commenced
In earnest. With expert clearances aggre
gating 0,000,000 bu. , and gold being iinx | > rtcd
in largo amounts the timidity of buyers
rapidly disappeared. N. H. Koam led the
purchasers. Commission houses began to
tret buying orders from outside as the session
ndvunccd , and in the final half hour the de
mand was fast and furious.
O. H. Kggloston , or "Sandy , " ns ho Is
almost universally known , was one of the
leading figures in the Kcrshaw failure that
resulted In the collapse of Harper six years
ago. On that occasion ho lost $804,000 in
cash trying to save n $25,000 special partner
ship In the ICorshaw concern. Ho had some
money loft , however , and a wife worth $1-
(100,000. ( Doing ono of the host posted men
In the trndo and the Intricacies of the grain
and provision carrying business , and having
the confidence of the banks , ho wont Into
that , line of business on n very extensive
scale , and is supposed to have made bade
nearly all ho lost through Kcrshaw nud
Harper.
Eggleston himself refuses to make uny
statement of his affairs for publication , but
It is generally thought by his friends that ho
has put about $500,000 , into the game and
that D. Egglcston may bo in the gap for
9500.000 , spread out all over the floor. How
much of that Is protected by margins cannot
bo ascertained to n certainty for several
days. D. Egglcston & Co. acted ns a clear
ing house for n dozen or more brokers who
did not have the moans to swing their
trades. The failure leaves them high and
dry and may embarrass them considerably.
> Parker & Co. had nearly $500,000 In cash
in the business , and the house was regarded
as ono of the soundest on the Board of
Trade.
"I do not know how I stand , " said George
Paricor. "I only know I pot caught in the
cap for more money than I could raise and I
had to Ho down. I considered myself ns
sound ns the Dunk of England yesterday , to
il ay I am Uroko. I had n big line of pro
visions on my books , and my principals were
unable to respond to margin calls. That left
mo to stand the racket alone , and I was not
strong enough for it. "
Were your principals Cudahy , Fairbank
or Wright ? "
"All of them. "
Thomas Grolg Is a Scotchman but honovcr
had any great trade. Ho was louir on pork
at high figures. The liabilities of the
Ciiduhy-Falrbank-Wright combination as
represented by closed-out trades on 'Change '
tonny are estimated at 11.000,000 to $ lfiOO,000
over and above their margin deposits.
The Cudahy Packing company. It seems ,
Is not Involved in the falluro of John Cudahy
and it is given out as ono of the trade-half
icercU that ho sacrificed his interest in the
company and also In the Cudahy Packing
company of Milwaukee to raise money to
carry on his speculations , his brothers buyIng -
Ing him out.
A feature of the day was the open buying
of everything on the list by Armour's
brokers. His purchases were on n prodlg-
ous scale. Buying In the other pits , how
ever , was dwarfed alongside wheat.
Corn opened excited , with sales a fraction
nbovo and below the llnal figures of yester
day and under a good demand , ono concern
buying freely , sold up lj e , afterwards workIng -
Ing back { c , changed some , ruled steady
and nt the close had gained from 1 jtfo to 1 Vc ,
Oats again advanced from Jfe to J/c ; out-
sldo figures wcro maintained ut the closn ,
but the gain was established. The strength
came from corn and also from wheat.
There was also a liberal demand from shorts
null less pressure to sell except on the bulge.
The provision' market , after its severe
sickness of the day before , opened qulto con-
valeseont. Besides Armour ft Co. , Nelson.
Morris & Co. , Swift & Co. . the Anglo-Ameri
can Packing company and other big concerns
which have been absentees during the Cud
ahy regime all took n hand in the transac
tions. They came in as buyers , for the most
part.There
There was n largo business done In lard
for oxport. 5,000 tierces being reported taken
for England nud 0,000 tierces for Germany.
Following so promptly on the collapse of the
price it In not impossible that these foreign
shipments nro going forward on Chicago ac
count. Lard and other commodities , It Is
said , can bo carried much more cheaply
abroad than they can here at present. Clos
ing prices were at the top of the day.
Freights wore dull ; the inabilit
Krs to sell exchange , checking business ,

NEW YOUK , Aug. 2. The Improvement
which sot In yesterday at the Stock exchange -
change made further progress today. The
heavy importation of gold has rcliovoa the
strain in financial circles and Is mainly re
sponsible for the recovery in both the stock
nnd bond market. The rise today was as
sisted by the purchases for the account of
leading operators , who saw the opportunity
of making a profitable turn at the expanse.
of the shorts. The fact th-it the bears ex-
perloncod diniculty in making prompt dn-
llverlcs nnd that when the donruiJ to cover
bcc.ime urgent the supply of stocks was
found to bo scarce , also had a marked in
fluence ,
'Ihe rlso suffered no particular interruption
until after midday , when some of the smaller
hulls realised prollts and prices yielded 1 to
! % per cent. The bears at once started to
put out u fresh line of short contracts , but
after u hrlef spell of weakness the market
nguln mot with ofTuctlvu support , and as H
rule the best figures of the day were at
tained ,
The largest advances were 9 % per cent in
Chicago Gas , 0 per cent in Lackawannu , 8K
per cent in General Ulectrlc , 8K per cent In
Hurliiigton , u > per cent In Western Union
and 8Jf per cent in St. Paul. Thcro was u
dlfTcrcnro of anywhere from 1 to UJ per cent
between the sales at Intervals , so great was
the demand to cover. Shortly before the
close another reaction of K to 2 per cent
occurred , but this was succeeded by another
recovery of Jtf 16 3 per cent and speculation
left off utrong In tone.
There was an improved demand for bonds
today and the tona was strong throughout.

The Post says : Whoever thought yenter-
dny that the failures In the Chicago produce
markets would upset reviving confidences
were speedily disabused today. From the
wheat pit to the bond room thu single senti
ment voiced among the New York financier *
was that of lutonso relief. For one thing it
was nt once discovered that the strong boxes
of bankrupt western pacicers had been
already emptied. Their prlvuto hoards , no
less than those of the Milwaukee bank ,
secured the mass of gilt edged
railroad securities , which went out at
so violent a rate. This morning's few fur
ther Chicago failures vroro learned of vlth-
out a slgu of real apprehension , the banks
seeming to hare escaped intact. From Lon

taken for expert from the bank. Coincldon-
tally the swelling price of American coin at

thut tliuro is a determination among
the southern members not to per

the reason that they believe that both

Prices Boomed Yesterday in the Face of Fresh Chicago Failures.
THREE PROMINENT FIRMS SUSPENDED
It was a hectic opening and a steady decline throughout the day on the Board of Trade in the face of three fresh failures, Excitement for a time was at fever pitch, but the market collapse was that of the most prominent grain carrier in Chicago, if not in the entire country - C. U. Eggleston & Co. Two other firms suspended were George Q. Parker & Co. and Thomas Craig. The Dow failures, however, including that of Eggleston, grew out of the collapse in pork and lard corners yesterday. When these were out of the way and the other houses passed the clearing house there began a good feeling.
Wheat took the lead with a bound of 4 1/2 cents in September price to 62 1/2c, with the close at 62 3/4c. Corn closed 1/2c higher, after telling nearly 2c over last night. Oats panned 1c. In provisions, the packers were covering their short sales and quotations rose 2 1/2c for pork, 1c for lard and 3 1/2c for ribs.
It was a wild opening and sales during the first few minutes recovered a sense of order in the market, with prices fluctuating widely in different parts of the crowd, though all sales were at least 1 1/2c above the final figures of yesterday.
The announcement of the failure of Parker & Co. and Craig was almost unnoticed, so far as any effect on prices was concerned, being regarded as the logical sequel of yesterday's downfall of the provision clique. There was a decidedly different aspect to affairs when the trades of Eggleston & Co. were publicly ordered closed, as they were known to be carrying a large quantity of cash wheat. Their suspension created a panicky feeling for a few minutes, during which the price dropped to 38 1/2c. At this point it was discovered that there was no wheat to be sold out for the suspended firm, P. D. Armour & Co. having, it is said, assumed their holdings of short wheat. That left no trades to be closed for them except the wheat they had sold short against the cash stuff. That being the case, the market quickly recovered to 41 1/2c, and for some time it fluctuated between 40c and 40 1/2c in a nervous way.
When it became apparent that no more failures were imminent, the boom commenced in earnest. With expert clearances aggregating 4,000,000 bu., and gold being imported in large amounts, the timidity of buyers rapidly disappeared. N. H. Koam led the purchasers. Commission houses began to accept buying orders from outside as the session advanced, and in the final half hour the demand was fast and furious.
C. H. Eggleston, or "Sandy," as he is almost universally known, was one of the leading figures in the Kershaw failure that resulted in the collapse of Harper six years ago. On that occasion he lost $804,000 in cash trying to save a $25,000 special partnership in the Kershaw concern. He had some money left, however, and a wife worth $1.5 million. Being one of the most posted men in the trade and the intricacies of the grain and provision carrying business, and having the confidence of the banks, he went into that line of business on a very extensive scale, and is supposed to have made bad nearly all he lost through Kershaw and Harper.
Eggleston himself refuses to make any statement of his affairs for publication, but it is generally thought by his friends that he has put about $500,000 into the game and that D. Eggleston may be in the gap for $900,000, spread out all over the floor. How much of that is protected by margins cannot be ascertained to a certainty for several days. D. Eggleston & Co. acted as a clearing house for a dozen or more brokers who did not have the means to swing their trades. The failure leaves them high and dry and may embarrass them considerably.
Parker & Co. had nearly $500,000 in cash in the business, and the house was regarded as one of the soundest on the Board of Trade.
"I do not know how I stand," said George Parker, "I only know I got caught in the cap for more money than I could raise and I had to go down. I considered myself as sound as the Bank of England yesterday, to say I am broke. I had a big line of provisions on my books, and my principals were unable to respond to margin calls. That left me to stand the racket alone, and I was not strong enough for it."
Were your principals Cudahy, Fairbank or Wright?
"All of them."
Thomas Craig is a Scotsman but however had any great trade. He was short on pork at high figures. The liabilities of the Cudahy-Fairbank-Wright combination as represented by closed-out trades on 'Change today are estimated at $11,000,000 to $16,000,000 over and above their margin deposits.
The Cudahy Packing company, it seems, is not involved in the failure of John Cudahy and it is given out as one of the trade-half rumors that he sacrificed his interest in the company and also in the Cudahy Packing company of Milwaukee to raise money to carry on his speculations, his brothers buying him out.
A feature of the day was the open buying of everything on the list by Armour's brokers. His purchases were on a prodigious scale. Buying in the other pits, however, was dwarfed alongside wheat.
Corn opened excited, with sales a fraction above and below the final figures of yesterday and under a good demand, one concern buying freely, sold up 1 1/2c, afterwards working back 1/2c, changed some, ruled steady and at the close had gained from 1 1/2c to 1 3/4c. Oats again advanced from 2 1/2c to 3c; outside figures were maintained at the close, but the gain was established. The strength came from corn and also from wheat.
There was also a liberal demand from shorts, nullifying less pressure to sell except on the bulge.
The provision market, after its severe sickness of the day before, opened quite convalescent. Besides Armour & Co., Nelson, Morris & Co., Swift & Co., the Anglo-American Packing company and other big concerns which have been absentees during the Cudahy regime all took a hand in the transactions. They came in as buyers, for the most part. There was a large business done in lard for export, 5,000 barrels being reported taken for England and 6,000 barrels for Germany. Following so promptly on the collapse of the price, it is not impossible that these foreign shipments are going forward on Chicago account. Lard and other commodities, it is said, can be carried much more cheaply abroad than they can here at present. Closing prices were at the top of the day.
Freights were dull; the inability to sell exchange, checking business, were lower than last night by 1 1/2c for wheat and 1/2c for corn to Buffalo.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 7,000 cars; corn, 6,000 cars; oats, 343 cars; hogs, 10,000 head.

Huckleberries, which have been coming in for a week past in large quantities, were scarcer, and about the only supply was to be found in the hands of local growers. The raspberry season is almost over. There were a few blueberries in the market, but they have been too high at the points where grown that there has not been much inducement to ship to this market so far this season.

BANANAS Prices remain about steady. Per bunch, large, $2.25-$2.75; per bunch, small to medium, $2.00-$2.25.

New YORK, Aug. 9. The dry good market continues steady, but there are slight upturns to show a rather better footing. The general tone is better. The Western grades of bleached and unbleached have shown a reduction, but in the first reduction on these bands this year, the decline has been less than expected, owing to a lower price for foreign goods. There is also some interest in British cotton, which has shown a slight improvement. There is some inquiry from China for raw yarn, but there is no firm demand. American yarn shows a weak tendency.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
Improvement in the Resolution Made Further Progress Yesterday.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2. The improvement which set in yesterday at the Stock exchange made further progress today. The heavy importation of gold has relieved the strain in financial circles and is mainly responsible for the recovery in both the stock and bond market. The rise today was assisted by the purchases for the account of leading operators, who saw the opportunity of making a profitable turn at the expense of the shorts. The fact that the bears experienced difficulty in making prompt deliveries and that when the demand to cover became urgent the supply of stocks was found to be scarce, also had a marked influence.
The rise suffered no particular interruption until after midday, when some of the smaller profits realized prompted prices to yield 1 to 2½ percent. The bears at once started to put out a fresh line of short contracts, but after a brief spell of weakness the market rallied with actively support, and as a rule the best figures of the day were at night. The largest advances were 9½ percent in Chicago Gas, 6 percent in Lackawanna, 8½ percent in General Electric, 8½ percent in Burlington, a 4 percent in Western Union and 8½ percent in St. Paul. There was a difference of anywhere from 1 to 2½ percent between the sales at intervals, so great was the demand to cover. Shortly before the close another reaction of 1 to 2 percent occurred, but this was succeeded by another recovery of 1½ to 2½ percent and speculation left off strong in tone.
There was an improved demand for bonds today and the tone was strong throughout. American Cotton Oil rose 1 percent to 109½ and Atlantic 4s rose ½ percent to 103½. The Post says: Whoever thought yesterday that the failures in the Chicago produce markets would upset reviving confidence were speedily disabused today. From the wheat pit to the bond room the single sentiment voiced among the New York financiers was that of ultimate relief. For one thing it was at once discovered that the strong boxes of bankrupt western packers had been already emptied. Their private hoards, no less than those of the Milwaukee bank, secured the mass of gilt-edged railroad securities, which went out at such a violent rate. This morning's few further Chicago failures were learned without a sign of real apprehension, the banks seeming to have escaped intact. From London came the news of 3,000,000 more gold taken for export from the bank. Coincidentally the swelling price of American coin at the bank was raised, and the rate for London time loans advanced to the bank's own figure, foreshadowing a probable advance in the continuously heavy shipments. All grain, securities and produce gave ground for believing that the movement of gold would not be choked off.
The following are the closing quotations on the leading stocks on the New York exchange today:

Ninety thousand sovereigns were received from Egypt and 11,000 from Portugal. The market rate of discount was firm on a possibility of a reduced bank rate tomorrow. Gold was in strong demand in the open market today at 78s per ounce. About 200,000 sterling were taken today for America: the market is now bare. Silver has risen to 32½d and is firm. London paper has fallen to 68½d, owing to lower exchanges from India. The stock markets were idle today, but prices were buoyant in all departments, especially in Americans, which left off at about the highest.

OMAHA STEAMER: Markets.
WEDNESDAY, Aug. 2.
Receipts of all kinds were only moderate, but this was a regular "Black Friday" in all branches of the trade. Receipts for the three days foot up 8,231 cattle, 10,205 hogs and 1,780 sheep, against 4,064 cattle, 17,831 hogs and 702 sheep the first half of this week.
The cattle market was in very bad shape, and the close found nearly two-thirds of the cattle unsold. Offering were rather liberal and very largely western, Chicago advices were of the most bearish character, and the demand here reduced to almost nothing. Undoubtedly was out of the market, and Swift and Hammond only wanted a few butcher cattle. They had no trouble in getting these, and when that was done, the market was over. A few loads of good fat steers sold at from $4.60 to $4.80, and grassy and half-fat natives brought $12.05 and $13.15. After this was done, the buyers left the yards. As far as it went, the market was 50c lower than Tuesday, mostly the latter, lower than yesterday. There were fully 1,501 head, mostly western, or one-half the receipts, still in the pens at the close.
It was the same way in cows. The few that local houses decided to buy, they easily purchased a quarter lower than Tuesday, and would not look at the rest at any price. Calf stock was dull and lower and the same was true as to rough aptitude generally.
The feeder trade was flat, Offerings were excessive out of all proportion to the demand and prices declined 5c to 25c on all grades, Representative sales:

Hogs Market history fails to record a worse drop in the price than occurred today. Buyers were off all of a dollar, and while the bulk of the hogs sold on Tuesday around the popular price today was 14, the immediate cause was the bursting of the highly-inflated provision balloon Tuesday and the consequent failure of several more or less important pickled goods concerns. Receipts were not at all heavy, being only 4,800 head, but they were heavy enough for all purposes. A few urgent shipping and fresh meat orders for light and butcher-weight hogs were filled early at from $11.10 to $13.60, but packers started in bidding $4 and said they would buy hogs there or not buy at all. A Chicago backer was on the market trying to get hogs for $3.76, but did not succeed. As the early trading in light and butcher grades, there was practically no market at ever higher than $5. The close found over half the hogs still in first hands. As far as it went, trading was largely against yesterday and $3.75 to $5.50 on last Wednesday. Representative sales:

Chicago Livestock Stock Market.
CHICAGO, AUG. 2. (Special Telegram from OUR MARKETS.) Probably never before since ground was broken for the Union stock yards was there such utter stagnation in the live stock markets as was experienced today. Sellers and buyers alike seemed to be "at a loss," the former not knowing how much to ask and the latter how little to offer.
There was an awful chasm between buyers and sellers. Their differences were irreconcilable and consequently trading was at a standstill. There were plenty of anxious sellers at any reasonable concession, but buyers seemed to be bereft of reason. Their bids were simply outstanding. The market from 84 to $4.25 for a grade of hops that looked cheap yesterday morning at from $5.40 to $6.80 and there was very little trading on the basis. Cattle and hogs were off correspondingly and, taken all in all, it was a market of which the stock would not furnish a countertrend.
Receipts were heavy all around, amounting to 10,000 cattle, 27,000 hogs, and 17,000 sheep. Only a bilateral part of the offerings found takers and the close was inconceivably had.
It was a tough day for holders of cattle; how tough only those countrymen who were fortunate enough to have stock here can have any appreciable realization. It was well along toward noon before buyers could make any bids. Then holders were comprehensively informed that if they were prepared to negotiate on a basis of from 40c to 50c off from Tuesday's prices, some business might be done. However, there was not the slightest ray of hope for a better state of things tomorrow. Sellers reluctantly came down, but even a significant reduction did not lead to active trading. Exports took a fair number, and there was home trading for local accounts, but the sounding of the 2 o'clock whistle, which announces a suspension of trading, found several thousand unsold cattle in the yards. The receipts were unthawed at 10,000 head, of which 600 were from Texas. Natives sold very slowly and heavily below $4.60, or at from $3.25 to $1.40 for common to good steers, and at from $2.60 to $2.60 for common to choice cows and bulls. The decline in Texas cattle was less severe than that noted in natives, but they held materially lower than on Tuesday.
With hogs selling at recent low prices, a decline of from 70c to 80c per 100 lbs was something altogether unexpected, but that is what happened within an hour or two after the opening of business this morning. Those few buyers who had the nerve to touch the hogs over this low bill were not wanted today at even $4.40 to $3.60, and the fancy light sorts that were then able at from $5.50 to $5.80 were a drug at from $2 to $2.20.
There seemed to be few buyers who had the nerve to touch the hogs over this low bill, and although sellers worked hard, they were able to make but little improvement on the supply of 33,000 head that the market held. With the market in such a shape, trustworthy quotations are out of the question. At the wind-up, it is doubtful that more than $5.16 could have been obtained for heavyweights, and it is certain that $3.16 was the extreme top for light. Judging from the tenor of buyers, tomorrow is not likely to show any significant improvement in the demand or in prices.
If one branch of the stock trade was more thoroughly lifeless than another, it was that of sheep. It was almost impossible to call out a bid, and the market was as limp as a rag, goods to choice muttons were offered on the market at from $3.75 to $4.25, but no one would touch them at these figures. At to the poorer grades, they simply were unable, by any path, to compete with cattle and hogs, the market must have ruled considerably lower under the pressure of supplies, but with from 17,000 to 18,000 head on the market, they were absolutely at the mercy of buyers. They forced a decline of from 60c to 70c per 100 lbs, pushing prices down to from 11 to 12 for poor to common and from 13 to 14.25 for fair to choice qualities. Lambs did not suffer as much, they went off to from $2.65 to $2.70, according to quality. Only a substantial part of the supply was disposed of.

General Information Regarding the Coinage, Washington, Aug. 2. If Mr. Preston, acting Superintendent of the mint, is to be appointed by the president as the regent of the mint, his qualifications probably, and is the choice of the secretary of the treasury for that post, it would have been more difficult for him if he had been appointed when the Republican was in session in March. The silver proponents will most certainly make a determined effort to defeat his confirmation if he should be nominated. Another order has just been made that will make it still more difficult for the silver mine to yet rid of their silver, and which the friends of silver in Congress will unquestionably use as another illustration of the difficulty of the treasury to the use of silver in the currency. The order in that hemisphere all bullion purchased by the treasury under the Silver Purchase Act must be divided in five days. The present limit is ten days. There are many in Congress who do not approve of Secretary Carlisle's policy in reference to the purchase of the $50,000,000 silver provided by the statute when the price, at the discretion of the secretary of the treasury, is not the market price. Some of the most earnest opponents of free coinage maintain that this interpretation of the law is technical and a mala fide nullification of the spirit of the law. They fear that such an attempt to defeat the law by construction in the present irritated condition of the public mind. They fear that such a manifestation of hostility to silver by structured constitution will have an unfavorable reaction upon the maintenance of silver currency.
This interpretation, as well as the order of today limiting the delivery period of the bullion to five days, is the work of Mr. Preston, who is extremely sensitive. Frank & Herbert, among others, move repair books. Whole sale liquor dealers for all kinds of beer, 1001 Eastern St. railroad near it. Paper, Delta Co. Standard Oil Co. Carry a full stock of printed wraps and lined and unlined writing papers, card papers, etc. Excellent quality, great value. Produce Commission, Branch & Co. Produce, fruit of all kinds, oysters. South Union Stock Yards Company, South Carolina's finest cattle market in the region. Wood Brothers, Live Stock Commission Marine, co-threat Omaha Telephone 114. Chicago, John D. Adams, Walter B. Wood, Managers. Market reports by mail and wire cheerfully furnished upon application. Nickel Watches. The jeweling of nickel watches, especially nickel watches, in the center, is one of the greatest steps forward in the history of watch making. No matter how well oiled or unsealed ruby jewels are used, nickel will adjust. Nickel watch made only at the Dexter Watch Works. If your dealer does not keep our watches, mail us your address and we will send you the name of a dealer who does. To the humane watch, Caution, O.
Apparently, in opposition to silver and who thus far secured in the approval of the secretary of the treasury to all his recommendations. It has become evident from the talk with the southern members who are coming in that the people in that section are more concerned in preserving their metals than they are in maintaining the present ratio between gold and silver for coinage purposes. It is quite evident that there is a determination among the southern members not to permit the demonetization of silver, for the reason that they believe that both silver and gold are needed as the basis of a national currency, but they appear to have very little interest in favor of the mine owners' point of view, and they have as a rule no objection to consider a substantial increase in the ratio upon which the free coinage of gold and silver should be established. What they want, apparently, is the free coinage of silver, on the theory that it will give more money, but they are perfectly willing that the silver dollar should be placed on a parity with gold by increasing the amount of silver in the coin. The rally seems to be around the proposition to repeal the Sherman law, repeal the State bank tax and coin silver at about 20 to 1.
Heating, Courthouse bench, want the Sherman Act repealed. Tacoma, Wash., Aug. 2. The Chamber of Commerce last evening adopted a resolution favoring the immediate repeal of the Sherman purchasing act, declaring that the widespread disaster and distress at present prevailing are largely the direct outcome of the terrible economic overturning of the protective policy of the country, and requesting the senate and house of representatives to adopt a joint resolution to the effect that no legislation shall during the next four years be attempted on this subject nor in any way affecting the duties levied on imports of merchandise. The amendment offered by Nelson Hannett to the latter clause was amended as follows: "Excepting that these articles, including silver, which are not now on the protected list shall have equitable protection with all others." Courtland such an amendment. | 21 |

' 1 line Cut
Several largo pieces of white quartz rock ,
sprinkled all over with bright particles of
gold , adorn the clerk's desk at the St.
Charles at Portland , Oro. They are from
the Virtue mine , In the F.Ik horn district ,
about eight miles from linker City , and are
portions of the rich rock recently struck on
the iKO-foot level , the finding of which cre
ated so much excitement in the eastern portion
tion of the stato. So thoroughly Is the rock
Impregnated with gold that when it Is
broken the pieces are held together by the
llltlo votus of molal running through It In
all directions. Although It has not been as
sayed , exports efitlmalo its value at from
$150,000 to pWO,000 per ton. Q. W. Gntyson ,
a wealthy mining man of Oakland , Cat. , is
the owner of the Vlrtuo , and brought the
specimens ivllh him on his return from
Balcer City ,
"All this talk about an extraordinary
strike In the Vlrtud mine Is Very much ex
aggerated , " said Mr. Gr.iyson , being ques
tioned , "Tho ere , as you see , Is very rich ,
but there is only a pcckot of it. Suoli lluds
tire made in every gold mine , but thcro are
only a few of them which Uimollt the owner.
It is often the case that when miners coino
upon a very rich pocket they have no
scruples hi pocketing what they can of the
rich mineral and carrying it offji portion at
a time and da'y by day , until the pocket Is
exhausted. But It happened in this
case that my foreman made the dis
covery. I purchased the property some
eighteen years ago from J. W. Virtue , and
It was almost constantly operated up to six
years ago , when It llllnd with water. Last
fall I bonded the mine to San Francisco
parties for ? 4. > ,000. They built a ton-stamp
mill , and , being inexperienced , attempted to
pump the water out and operate it at the
sumo time. Of course , they fell behind , and
then had trouble with the miners. Hearing
of this , I went up there on Juno 12 nnd took
possession. Wo had Just pumped the water
dry from the lowest level when my foreman ,
while passing through the tunnel , happened
to sco a shining little nugget sticking out of
the lloor. Ho know at once that something
good was in sight , and quietly went to work
with pick and shovel. The pooltot contained
only a few thousand dollars. I know of
many such pockets found In tbo Virtue , nnd
ono of them is H.iid to hayo yielded $15,000 ,
but I cannot vouch for tht > truth of the state
ment. Thu mine has always paid well when
it was worlted. It waallrst ; opened in 1802
by W. F. Hoekyfollow. & '
"During the past HO year ? , I should Judge
that at least 51,000,000. worth of gold has
been taken out. Kvcrjrrbtt of ere over taken
out has paid for working- The average run
Is about $18 po v toiOn.rho vein of quartz
is about two foot In width and runs SOO feet
on the ledge. When fiio ) mine was Jlrst
opined a shaft 100 feet ( fi length was sunk ,
parallel with the mountain sido. Then n
cross-cut tunnel was i'uji to tbo bottom of
the shaft , and a perpendicular shaft sunk lo
the present level UM fjet. ( It was the in
tention to cttt through } .tno ledge , but the
vein scorned to turn whci'o the second shaft
was commenced , so that-thu relations of the
shaft nnd vein were jlfiictlcally the same
that they were years agj > . "

No lluril Times In flllpln.
There is llttlo in Gilpin county , Colorado ,
to Intllcato that hard times exist nlmost
overywhcro In the country. Hero nlmost
nil the gold mines nro working and producing
oro. keeping all the stamp mills busy. In
addition to the others , the Now York mill ,
with sovcuty-llvo stamps , has also started
up. Not alouo in nnd about Central City
and Blackhawk are minors and mill men
busy taking out and treating gold ere , but
in nil parts of the county , The Times cor
respondent has just returned from a visit to
Yankee hill , the now gold camp , that is sit
uated on the line , partly in Gilpln and
partly in Clear Crook counties. There the
work of prospecting and of developing now
locations is being rapidly pushed. Pros
pectors nro arriving daily from all parts of
the state , nnU the camp is taking on a very
lively appearance.
The cump Is in the center of an immense
tr.ict of mineral-bearing country , covering
several sections that has been hardly
touched as yet. A great many locations
have Uec'ii made and almost invariably peed
sized and well doilnod ere bodies from
eighteen inches to lour and llvo feet In
width are shown whcro any depth has been
gained. Mill runs on ere from properties
owned by the Yankee Hill Mines & Milling
Co. , the Oolconda company , Lliiscot & , Co , ,
the Hawks I3ros. and several others give n
y.iluo of from three to eight ounces of gold
to the ton.
The camp is sadly In need of n stamp mill
with improved machinery for saving gold.
Through some unfortunate circumstance the
flftecti'Stamu mill that , 10g
was set up last spring
\g \
'
was placed In a part ol' the camp whoru it is
i.lmost inaccessible to water. It has sn
a failure and is n drawback to the mosporltv
and development of a very rich gold-bearing
country.
I'Jnecr Mining In thu L'lntto.
A few of Denver's
unemployed nrn making
fair wagon washing gold in the Plattu river. )
They are principally minors and South Dun-
voritus , and are pursuing the same means inof
acquiring wealth us did all thu old ' .Oers ,
before tlio quartz discoveries in the moun
tains. '
No surprising striked Imvo boon mndo 111by
the few who are hunting for the glittering
metal in the sands oPtho river , mil none
who have worked dllltfJifitly Imvo fulled to
make u fair day's wugc V'Kvhllo several have
mudo as hlgli us fa uHtiry. A majority of
thorn think It better toStmlto even n pittance
by honest labor than tofldlo
away their tlmo.
Small crowds of thoV wAshers wore scat
tered all along tllt- Platte recently ,
but the number Was't
not nearly so
great as might have trtxm on account of
the muddy condition ofxllc w tor. As every
olu minor knows , dirt itrtho water Interferes
very materially with thu finding of tlio gold.
The "washing" oultVf neurcBt the city Id.Is
on the Platte a llttlo tl/o'Jotlier sldo of the
old stamp works. In foMner .yours , an old
timer told n Times repd U > r , fctt.OOO hail been

Itulcl ISutto Country ,
Reports from the Bald Ilutto country In
Montana Indicate that there are prosperous
times there , dcuplto the dullness olsewhoro.
As UioTproUuot is gold , the upa and downs o.of
silver do no not affect it , The Jlald Hutto
company tuts just about completed Its new
mill , nnd the number of houses in the camp
have about doubled durinK tlio past year ,
The Dalit Dutto company maunwhllo Is
understood to bo paying Its regular monthly
dividends.
Tbo Ponob.icot. under the management of
Frank Ixmgmald , is being put into excellent
shape for work , Mouutlmo , while the cluar-
Ing nnd oponlng-up process Is going on hoer
mill Is kept going , and it pout every ton or

ImproTPil Unlil-Sitvlnc ProrM .
Hhrry Ongor , who Is nt the head of the
SniiKo river dam nnd cnnnl onterprlio , in
speaking yesterday of the placer mining on
Snake river bnrs to n ro | > ortur of the Idatio
Statesman , said there Is now no doubt the
PTOCCSJ of "burlnp rockers" will save n largo
percentage of the flour gold. Men working
there nro making from $ -i.fiO to $111 n day.
The burlnp uroovss Is aji simple ns It Is
novel. In the bottom ot nn ordinary rocker
an ordinary burlap sack is placed. The
gntrol h'ml snnd is thrown tiHin | what is
called a "grlzloy. " a big iron sieve , the larger
pieces of rocit being washed to ono sldo. the
liner particles falling Into the rocker. The
Hour gold settles into the meshes of the sack.
Every day or so the burlap is washed In a
tuboffclear water and tlio line particles of
the gold thus sooured.
. Slulccs.hrouscd but little , owing to the
scarcity of water , but the same process Is
adopted.as .in the case of the rockers. Hur-
laps are laid along the bottom of the boxes
and the dirt , is washed over them.
The Ahlnthgycllows.tn.l settles on thosaclts
and is secured by the wnshtub method.
The scarcity of water Is ono great draw
back , the richest barsboinp the greatest dls-
tJinco from the river. Mr. Gagor predicts
'
when tho'proposod ranal is completed fully
8,000 men will engage In separating the Hour
gold from the sands of the Snnko river bars.
A man named Grant "OXTIIS a system of
slulco boxes nt the mouth of Hoynold's crook
and each year ho reaps n harvest of gold
with his burlaps. In two days last year ho
took out $180.

Plerro may itmko nil the wild statements ho
pleases about the wonderful features of the
artesian well , and oven thun ho cannot do
that mutter Justlco , says the -D.tily Capital.
In many ways it Is the most wonderful well
In the world. H is the only well whoso
water will apparently burn. Prof. Wright of
Wntorvillo. N. Y. , has been examining the
well for several days , and nt every stop has
been surprised. Ho has found that " 80 gal

They wuro engaged In the Kiel rebellion over

by the Canadian Kovornment. During the

score to the clerk of the district court hero

An oftlolnt of the Union I'aclllc , spcalthif ;
of the visit of Mr. Minus , said that there

other western roads , " bo said.Vo are
earning our operating expenses nnd Imvo
proviiled for the interest on our llxod charges
for a certain length of tlmo. There Is no
indication thatu receiver will bo needed for
the Union Pacific , although in these times a
receiver Is a contingency' may occur to
any road. The rumor that salaries are to bo
cut 10 per cent Is , I think at present , not
thought of , asvo all hope the reduction In
force will bo sufllclent to tide us over until
crops begin to move. We have no work for
many of our men , and It is useless to attempt
to carry them on our pay rolls. "
Following closely upon the heels of the
Union Pauilk's reduction came a notice yesterday -
torday to the Mllwnulcea people hero that
on and nf tor August 1 , salaries in the tr.ifllc
department of the city would bo reduced 10
percent. It was a most unexpected move

showing made by the Milwaukee In Juno.
But the bottom has fallen out of the rail
road business and retrenchment is the order
of the day.
Auditor Taylor of the Burlington said that

thought that salaries would not bo reduced.
"It Is the policy of the system to discharge
employes whom itan got along without hut

Rich Ore Discovered
Taken from Small Pocket
CRIPPLE CREEK GOLD confirmed
Group shot (Equinox Stamp Mill)
Site for Plumas Where Unrefined
Line Cut
Several large pieces of white quartz rock, sprinkled all over with bright particles of gold, adorn the clerk's desk at the St. Charles at Portland, Ore. They are from the Virtue mine, in the Elk Horn district, about eight miles from Blackfoot City, and are portions of the rich rock recently struck on the 800-foot level, the finding of which created so much excitement in the eastern portion of the state. So thoroughly is the rock impregnated with gold that when it is broken the pieces are held together by the brittle veins of gold running through it in all directions. Although it has not been assayed, experts estimate its value at from $150,000 to $500,000 per ton. Q. W. Grayscon, a wealthy mining man of Oakland, Calif., is the owner of the Virtue, and brought the specimens with him on his return from Blackfoot City.
"All this talk about an extraordinary strike in the Virtue mine is very much exaggerated," said Mr. Grayscon, being questioned, "The ore, as you see, is very rich, but there is only a pocket of it. Such pockets are made in every gold mine, but there are only a few of them which entirely belong to the owner. It is often the case that when miners come upon a very rich pocket they have no scruples in pocketing what they can of the rich mineral and carrying it off little by little and day by day, until the pocket is exhausted. But it happened in this case that my foreman made the discovery. I purchased the property some eighteen years ago from J. W. Virtue, and it was almost constantly operated up to six years ago, when it filled with water. Last fall I bonded the mine to San Francisco parties for $4,000. They built a ton-stamp mill, and, being inexperienced, attempted to pump the water out and operate it at the same time. Of course, they fell behind, and then had trouble with the miners. Hearing of this, I went up there on June 12 and took possession. We had just pumped the water dry from the lowest level when my foreman, while passing through the tunnel, happened to see a shining little nugget sticking out of the floor. He knew at once that something good was in sight, and quietly went to work with pick and shovel. The pocket contained only a few thousand dollars. I know of many such pockets found in the Virtue, and one of them is said to have yielded $15,000, but I cannot vouch for the truth of the statement. The mine has always paid well when it was worked. It was first opened in 1852 by W. F. Holmbeck.
"During the past ten years," I should judge that at least $1,500,000 worth of gold has been taken out. Every year of work over there has paid for working. The average run is about $18 per ton. The vein of quartz is about two feet in width and runs 800 feet on the ledge. When the mine was first opened a shaft 100 feet in length was sunk, parallel with the mountain side. Then a cross-cut tunnel was driven to the bottom of the shaft, and a perpendicular shaft sunk to the present level 600 feet. (It was the intention to cut through the ledge, but the vein seemed to turn where the second shaft was commenced, so that the relations of the shaft and vein were practically the same that they were years ago.)
Another
More discoveries of high-grade mineral have been made in Cripple Creek: July than in any other month. Portland, located a few hundred feet downcast of the Dead, Pine, made a shipment of sixteen tons from this property last Saturday via the Colorado Mountain road to Denver. Careful estimates on the ore indicate that this first shipment will run about $600 per ton. The high-grade stock in the Portland will average at least eight lodes in width. The vein between the walls is over four feet and plenty of the ore which will not pay to send to the smelters will give good results under stamps.
No Little Times in Gilpin.
There is little in Gilpin county, Colorado, to indicate that hard times exist almost everywhere in the country. Here almost all the gold mines are working and producing ore, keeping all the stamp mills busy. In addition to the others, the New York mill, with eighty-five stamps, has also started up. Not alone in and about Central City and Blackhawk are miners and mill men busy taking out and treating gold ore, but in all parts of the county. The Times correspondent has just returned from a visit to Yankee Hill, the new gold camp, that is situated on the line, partly in Gilpin and partly in Clear Creek counties. There the work of prospecting and of developing new locations is being rapidly pushed. Prospectors are arriving daily from all parts of the state, and the camp is taking on a very lively appearance.
The camp is in the center of an immense tract of mineral-bearing country, covering several sections that has been hardly touched as yet. A great many locations have been made and almost invariably show sized and well-defined veins from eighteen inches to four and live feet in width are shown wherever any depth has been gained. Mill runs on ere from properties owned by the Yankee Hill Mines & Milling Co., the Oolconda company, Lliiscot & Co., the Hawks Bros., and several others give an average of from three to eight ounces of gold to the ton.
The camp is sadly in need of a stamp mill with improved machinery for saving gold. Through some unfortunate circumstance, the most effective stamp mill that was set up last spring was placed in a part of the camp where it is almost inaccessible to water. It has been a failure and is a drawback to the prosperity and development of a very rich gold-bearing country.
Miners in the Platte. A few of Denver's unemployed are making fair wagon washing gold in the Platte river. They are principally miners and South Dunverites, and are pursuing the same means in order to acquire wealth as did all the old prospectors, before the quartz discoveries in the mountains.
No surprising strikes have been made by the few who are hunting for the glittering metal in the sands of the river, but none who have worked diligently have failed to make a fair day's wage. While several have made as high as sixty dollars, a majority of them think it better to eke out even a pittance by honest labor than to idle away their time.
Small crowds of the washers were scattered all along the Platte recently, but the number was not nearly as great as might have been on account of the muddy condition of the water. As every old miner knows, dirt in the water interferes very materially with the finding of the gold.
The "washing" outlets near the city extend on both sides of the old stamp works. In former years, an old timer told a Times reporter, $6,000 had been taken out in this vicinity. Consequently, during the past week the placer bar has been crowded with workers. The place is said to be rich yet, and none of the workers, it is claimed, have made much for a day's work, while one old man, who knows his business, has found an ounce and a half, worth $30, in the last six days.
Reports from the Bald Butte country in Montana indicate that there are prosperous times there, despite the dullness elsewhere. As the product is gold, the ups and downs of silver do not affect it. The Bald Butte company has just about completed its new mill, and the number of houses in the camp have almost doubled during the past year. The Bald Butte company machinery is understood to be paying its regular monthly dividends.
The Plume Butte, under the management of Frank Longmald, is being put into excellent shape for work, Montana, while the cleaning and opening-up process is going on, the company's mill is kept going, and it puts every ton or two days a bar of gold bullion, running from $800 to $1,500, into Helena.
While the new owners, the Longmald brothers, have not run across any phenomenally rich pockets of art, such as were encountered in the early history of the Plume Butte, they have enough average ground in sight to assure those both handsomely returns for some time to come, with the chance in addition of making a big strike at any time.
Improvements in Unfitted Placer Mining. Henry Long, who is at the head of the Snake river dam and canal enterprise, in speaking yesterday of the placer mining on Snake river bars to a report of the Idaho Statesman, said there is now no doubt the process of "burning rockers" will save a large percentage of the flour gold. Men working there are making from $8 to $11 a day. The burning brooks is as simple as it is novel. In the bottom of an ordinary rocker, an ordinary burlap sack is placed. The gravel is thrown through what is called a "grizzly," a big iron sieve, the larger pieces of rock being washed to one side, the finer particles falling into the rocker. The flour gold settles into the meshes of the sack. Every day or so the burlap is washed in a tub of clear water and the fine particles of gold are thus recovered.
The scarcity of water is one great drawback, owing to the scarcity of water, but the same process is adopted as in the case of the rockers. Burlaps are laid along the bottom of the boxes and the dirt is washed over them. The flour settles on those sacks and is secured by the washtub method.
The scarcity of water is one great drawback, the richest bars being the greatest distance from the river. Mr. Long predicts that when the proposed canal is completed fully, 8,000 men will engage in separating the flour gold from the sands of the Snake river bars.
A man named Grant "OX" has a system of sluice boxes at the mouth of Boyner's Creek and each year he reaps a harvest of gold with his burlaps. In two days last year, he took out $180.
Henry Porter's Well. The time has come when every citizen of Plere may make all the wild statements he pleases about the wonderful features of the artesian well, and even then he cannot do much justice, says the Daily Capital. In many ways it is the most wonderful well in the world. It is the only well whose water will apparently burn. Prof. Wright of Waterville, N.Y., has been examining the well for several days, and at every stop has been surprised. He has found that "80 gallons of water flow per minute from it; that 24,000 cubic feet of gas escape daily, and that the temperature is 100 degrees. The analyses of the water, made by Prof. Sheppard of the agricultural college, show it to contain wonderful medicinal properties. That it has cured several cases of rheumatism is known, and invalids of all descriptions have improved while taking baths.
Want Undisturbed Summer Protection. The renegade Credo Indians have for several years infested all northern Montana. They were engaged in the Kiel rebellion over in the Northwest Territory, and are wanted by the Canadian Government. During the last ten days, they have been applying by the score to the clerk of the district court here for declarations of intention papers.
Finally, the clerk asked the advice of United States District Attorney Weed of Helena, and today he received the following reply: "Under the peculiar circumstances of this case, I would suggest that you decline to accept further declarations of intention from Credo Indians and advise them that they have a right to institute proceedings in the proper court to compel you to issue the papers. If the matter should then be taken into court, the legal question could be fully investigated and judicially settled."

Several years ago an old German prospector stopped at a farmer's house on Sickler Mountain, in Washington, having in his possession a small can full of gold dust which he claimed he had found sixty miles distant in the Blue mountains. He described the location perfectly, also stated that the trip thereto must necessarily be made on foot, as the country was too rough for horses. The old prospector was soon taken sick and died.
The next week the farmer, in possession of these facts, started in search of the hidden treasure and was accompanied by a young man of Dayton, who is putting up the freight station. The pair are traveling on foot, although a number of miles could be made on horseback. Their return is anxiously awaited by other propertied parties.

The camp is in the center of an immense tract of mineral-bearing country, covering several sections that has been hardly touched as yet. A great many locations have been made and almost invariably show sized and well-defined veins from eighteen inches to four and live feet in width are shown wherever any depth has been gained. Mill runs on here from properties owned by the Yankee Hill Mines & Milling Co., the Oolconda company, Lliiscot & Co., the Hawks Bros., and several others give an average of from three to eight ounces of gold to the ton.
The camp is sadly in need of a stamp mill with improved machinery for saving gold. Through some unfortunate circumstance, the most effective stamp mill that was set up last spring was placed in a part of the camp where it is almost inaccessible to water. It has been a failure and is a drawback to the prosperity and development of a very rich gold-bearing country.
Miners in the Platte. A few of Denver's unemployed are making fair wagon washing gold in the Platte river. They are principally miners and South Dunverites, and are pursuing the same means in order to acquire wealth as did all the old prospectors, before the quartz discoveries in the mountains.
No surprising strikes have been made by the few who are hunting for the glittering metal in the sands of the river, but none who have worked diligently have failed to make a fair day's wage. While several have made as high as sixty dollars, a majority of them think it better to eke out even a pittance by honest labor than to idle away their time.
Small crowds of the washers were scattered all along the Platte recently, but the number was not nearly as great as might have been on account of the muddy condition of the water. As every old miner knows, dirt in the water interferes very materially with the finding of the gold.
The "washing" outlets near the city extend on both sides of the old stamp works. In former years, an old timer told a Times reporter, $6,000 had been taken out in this vicinity. Consequently, during the past week the placer bar has been crowded with workers. The place is said to be rich yet, and none of the workers, it is claimed, have made much for a day's work, while one old man, who knows his business, has found an ounce and a half, worth $30, in the last six days.
Reports from the Bald Butte country in Montana indicate that there are prosperous times there, despite the dullness elsewhere. As the product is gold, the ups and downs of silver do not affect it. The Bald Butte company has just about completed its new mill, and the number of houses in the camp have almost doubled during the past year. The Bald Butte company machinery is understood to be paying its regular monthly dividends.
The Plume Butte, under the management of Frank Longmald, is being put into excellent shape for work, Montana, while the cleaning and opening-up process is going on, the company's mill is kept going, and it puts every ton or two days a bar of gold bullion, running from $800 to $1,500, into Helena.
While the new owners, the Longmald brothers, have not run across any phenomenally rich pockets of art, such as were encountered in the early history of the Plume Butte, they have enough average ground in sight to assure those both handsomely returns for some time to come, with the chance in addition of making a big strike at any time.
Improvements in Unfitted Placer Mining. Henry Long, who is at the head of the Snake river dam and canal enterprise, in speaking yesterday of the placer mining on Snake river bars to a report of the Idaho Statesman, said there is now no doubt the process of "burning rockers" will save a large percentage of the flour gold. Men working there are making from $8 to $11 a day. The burning brooks is as simple as it is novel. In the bottom of an ordinary rocker, an ordinary burlap sack is placed. The gravel is thrown through what is called a "grizzly," a big iron sieve, the larger pieces of rock being washed to one side, the finer particles falling into the rocker. The flour gold settles into the meshes of the sack. Every day or so the burlap is washed in a tub of clear water and the fine particles of gold are thus recovered.
The scarcity of water is one great drawback, owing to the scarcity of water, but the same process is adopted as in the case of the rockers. Burlaps are laid along the bottom of the boxes and the dirt is washed over them. The flour settles on those sacks and is secured by the washtub method.
The scarcity of water is one great drawback, the richest bars being the greatest distance from the river. Mr. Long predicts that when the proposed canal is completed fully, 8,000 men will engage in separating the flour gold from the sands of the Snake river bars.
A man named Grant "OX" has a system of sluice boxes at the mouth of Boyner's Creek and each year he reaps a harvest of gold with his burlaps. In two days last year, he took out $180.
Henry Porter's Well. The time has come when every citizen of Plere may make all the wild statements he pleases about the wonderful features of the artesian well, and even then he cannot do much justice, says the Daily Capital. In many ways it is the most wonderful well in the world. It is the only well whose water will apparently burn. Prof. Wright of Waterville, N.Y., has been examining the well for several days, and at every stop has been surprised. He has found that "80 gallons of water flow per minute from it; that 24,000 cubic feet of gas escape daily, and that the temperature is 100 degrees. The analyses of the water, made by Prof. Sheppard of the agricultural college, show it to contain wonderful medicinal properties. That it has cured several cases of rheumatism is known, and invalids of all descriptions have improved while taking baths.

Another gold discovery. It is really twenty dollar gold pieces this time. D. H. Crouter and family, who occupy the residence of Judge D. B. Scholield at Lake City, Ore., found a number of tin cans on a joist in the cellar, under the house, and among them was one containing fifty twenty dollar gold pieces. The money belongs to Judge Schofield, who now resides at Grant's Pass, Ore. Before leaving the city, about one year ago, he claimed he was $6,000 short, this discovery accounts for $1,000.

Names of Railroad Employees Disappearing Rapidly from the pay Rolls.
RAILROADS MAKE FURTHER REDUCTIONS
Mr. Oliver W. Minks, vice president and superintendent of the Union Pacific, arrived from his trip to the Yellowstone National park, and at once took up a systematic industry of the demitture of his system, with a view of still further reducing the expenses of the company.
Members of the various departments, worn out, were called to the attention of the chief by President Clark and informed that while the reductions made in the expenses had stemmed the tide somewhat, it wasn't by any means enough, and still further reductions were in order.
While not unexpected, the information was starting in character, and at once the heads of the various offices began the work of decimation, in some of the offices as many as five men were let out yesterday, the others adjourning to work an hour additional to the necessary draining of the several departments.
Since the first order to retrench went into effect about fifty people in the head quarters alone have been provided with time checks, across the face of which is printed "discharge certificate" in bold red letters. The order of Tuesday will undoubtedly relieve the force a round hundred more and then if this is not sufficient a 10% per cent reduction in salaries will probably follow.
Fifty men were let out at the Union Pacific shops yesterday morning as a result of Mr. Minks's visit, but it is not expected for a moment that the reduction will stop there.
Mr. Minks was elected with the heads of departments yesterday, and absolutely refused to see anyone not connected with the road. He is up to his eyes in work, as all the executive details connected with the management of the system devolve on him in the absence of Mr. Clark.
Arrived in Denver.
An oft-told story of the Union Pacific, spelt with care;
of the visit of Mr. Minus, said that there
was no significance in it other than some
things heroic had to be done to counteract the
losses. "We are in no worse condition than
other western roads," he said. "We are
earning our operating expenses and have
provided for the interest on our bond charges
for a certain length of time. There is no
indication that a receiver will be needed for
the Union Pacific, although in these times a
receiver is a contingency that may occur to
any road. The rumor that salaries are to be
cut 10 percent is, I think at present, not
thought of, as we all hope the reduction in
force will be sufficient to tide us over until
crops begin to move. We have no work for
many of our men, and it is useless to attempt
to carry them on our payrolls."
Following closely upon the heels of the
Union Pacific's reduction came a notice yesterday
to the Milwaukee people here that
on and after August 1, salaries in the traffic
department of the city would be reduced 10
percent. It was a most unexpected move
ment to the officials here in view of the good
showing made by the Milwaukee in June.
But the bottom has fallen out of the railroad business and retrenchment is the order
of the day.
Auditor Taylor of the Burlington said that
the 13. & M. had been reducing its train
crews and service all of last month, but
thought that salaries would not be reduced.
"It is the policy of the system to discharge
employees whom it can get along without but
maintain the salaries, which I think is about
right."
It will be a surprise to many warm friends
of Mr. J. O. Woodworth to learn that he
has tendered his resignation as assistant general freight agent of the Union Pacific,
to accept on August 15, the position of
general freight agent of the Iowa Central
railway vice A. F. Banks, who becomes
general manager of the Kansas, St. Louis & Eastern,
While Mr. Woodworth is comparatively a newcomer to Omaha, in the short time
he has been here he has made many pleasant
friendships. A strong railroad man, an
affable, courteous gentleman he will undoubtedly emphasize his reputation as a
tariff man in his new position.
Mr. Woodworth commenced the railway service in 1871,
since which time he has been, consecutively; 1875 to May, 1880, office boy in
the general freight department of the Chicago
St. Paul & Northwestern; May, 1880, to March,
1883, station agent of the same road at Downs,
Iowa; March, 1883, to December, 1884, chief clerk In the general agent's office
of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Southern Minneapolis; September, 1881,
to January, 1886, freight solicitor Union Pacific at Portland, Ore.; January, 1886,
to September, 1888, successively, traveling
freight agent and chief clerk in the general
freight department of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company September 1, 1885,
to December 1, 1890, assistant general freight agent of the same company. On December 1,
1880, he became assistant general freight agent of the Union Pacific located at Portland,
which position he held until July of 1890, when he became general freight agent of the Pacific division
of those same roads, which he held until March of 1891, when large powers were given him
as assistant general freight agent with headquarters at Portland. In November of 1893
he came to Omaha as assistant general
freight agent, having charge of the transcontinental
business, for which he was eminently suited by reason of his years of service spent on the Pacific coast.
H. C. Foley, general agent of the Sioux City,
was in Omaha yesterday.
The second number of the Transmississippi
Railway Outlook has made its appearance and
is even better than the initial number, if
such a thing is possible.
Leroy H. Britt, traffic clerk in the general
freight office of the Burlington, was married
yesterday to Miss Annie Livingston,
daughter of the late Dr. Livingston, at her
home in Plattsmouth.
The information from the Pennsylvania
system is not confirming its suspension of new
construction work to the Pennsylvania
division. Orders to stop the grading for the
double track on the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne

Lawrence, O., have been issued.
Mr. Charles B, Kinat, traveling passenger
agent of the Rock Island, with headquarters in
Kansas City, has been promoted to the
position of assistant general passenger and
ticket agent of the same company, with
jurisdiction over all Texas lines. His headquarters will be at Bowie, Tex. He will be
succeeded by James A. Stewart. Mr. Stewart
has been connected with the Rock Island
since the completion of the extension of the
road west of the Missouri river.

Win-re .Stolen OootU Are S rrtrcl. _
For the Imt three or four months the
fnie tj of the Hrunswlak hotel hnvo been
misting money nml articles of Jewelry , nnd
on Sundtiy Init the police detectives wore
cnllcd upon to fnthom the mystery of the
disappearance of tto trinkets. After the
i\rrcst of Mrs. Ollmoro yesterday for re
ceiving ? stolen nropcrty in the ahnpo of bolts
of cloth stolen from I nrjcn's , the detectives
found that tliolr prisoner \viis the same
woman who for some months hnd been sew-
IIIR for guest's of the hotel and she wns sus
pected.
Chief Detective Hnzo subjected the
woman to n were questioning and yesterday
forcnxm she broko- down nml confessed to
having stolen considerable of tlio property
of the guests of the Hrunawick and professed
n wlllingiu'15 to show thooniccrs where the
plunder was secreted. Accordingly Haze
took Mrs. Gllimiro In his buggy ami to her
residence nt Fiftieth and Utmiotto streets
and found secreted In the cellar four diamond
mend rings nnd one diamond scarf pin.
The fines recovered are worth JIIJO nnd
the pin JUKI. Other articles are still miss
ing , but the most valuable have been recov
ered. The following guests of the hotel
have lost property , which bin been taken
from tlicir rooms recently : F. A. 1'rairer.
diamonds ; Mine.Vallnco , gloves , shoos nnd
Jowulry ; Mrs. M M. Cook , money ; Mrs. H.
1' . Johnson , money ; W. F. Swoozy , proprie
tor , diamond scarf pin ,
The scarf pin which was recovered be
longs to Mr. Swcozy andncouploof the rings
nro owned by Mr. Pragcr.
Employes of tlm house say -that Mrs. Gilmore -
more was always well thought of by the
guests nnd that she did what work wns
given her very well. Until her arrest no
ono over suspected her , but as she had the
run of the house it was an easy matter for
her to i pick up little articles of Jewelry nud
pocketbooks left lying around loose.
The attorney for Mrs. ailmoro says that
his client's name Is Mrs. Ella Guillemot and
that her husband , who died a couple of
years ago , wns a physician In good standing.
She formerly lived In Iowa.
It Is understood that some of the Bruns
wick people who have recovered their prop
erty will not , prosecute Mrs. Gthuore. but
Chief Detective Haze will tllo n complaint of
grand larceny against her Just the same.
The police detectives are still working ou
the Larson tailor shop robbery nud expect
before the trial of the suspects comes up
that they will have enough evidence to con
vict tllo entire gang. Although Dotcctlvo
Savage is conllnod to his bed ho had a hand
In the affair along with the rest of the
detective force , for the original tip regard
ing Mitch Fleming nnd Mrs. Gllmoro camu
from the sick olllccr.
All of the people who have been arrested
so far nro held ou .suspicion , but the police
expect to Illo grand lurceny complaints In a
day or so , as soon as they have collected all
'tho evidence necessary to make a case.
Following Is the criminal record of the
men now under arrest for hurglnri/.lng
the tailor shop as showu by the books at
police headquarters :
"Sloop.y" Hewitt , pickpocket nnd nil

COLORADO \VxLL RECOVER.
While nepomlmit on Silver , thn Contonnliil
Stuto HUH Other Hloh Iti'smii-ccn.
A gentleman from Denver , nt present
sojourning hi Omalin wns yesterday in
terviewed by a reporter as to his views
ou the situation in the Centcnm.il state.
The visitor stated ns his best informa
tion nnd boliet that noUuntil tlio price
of silver went up coultilhero bo any change
for tlic better in the present doplor.iblo con-
illtion of things in Denver and Color.ido.
Anil in fact itv : s never rp.ili/.ed until now
how dependent Colorado Is on the silver in
dustry , nud how nuljy pretty much every
thing cls.0 has been either neglected or con
sidered of soi-ond.iry moment ns compared
with tlio white niotal.
"It tins been urged time nnd again , " said [ I
the Dcnvcritc , "by conservatlvo men
like-l'j. fi. Light , preslilcnt of the Manufac
turers exchange , that more attention lie paid
to other industries , as for instance the ronl
industry. Why. in the county of Ounnison
nlono there is ns much coil : as m tlio whole
state of Pennsylvania , and in the whole state
of Colorado tliero is ns much coal ns In any
three states in the union. This may scum
like overdrawing the matter , tint our experts
who have given it c.iraful and intelligent
attention chum tnis to bo the fact. Then the
whent anil grain crop in the southern part of
the state is immense , and the agricultural
interests of the stnto generally nro beginning
to loom up iu great shape , lint the enormous
mineral resources of IhocoinmnnvveaUh seem
to have overshadowed everything else , und
for years to come the production of the
precious metals will engross the greater p.irt
of public attention.
"Tho number of mon employed in the
mines and smelters will bo better understood
when it is Muted that when the mines elosod
down 0,000 men won ) thrown out of em
ployment , and then followed a slump in
railroad tralllc that added gre.itly to the
general pnr.ilyhls.
"Of course thousands of people are leaving
the state , going back vast to friends and
where thov will lind work , but as soon as the
price of silver ROCS up again these samn
people will bn ( locking hack , and ills pre
dicted thnt the future of the stnto will bo
bright enough only silver must rise before
this can bo douo. There is a disposition to
look on the bright side of things , and bo
cheerful nnd to wait for the hoped-for good
times that will surolv come. "
Vlmvt of it \ tiitur.
W. N Nason , an Omnium who Is at pres ,
ent In Colorado , writes to I'llR Hir. : nn en
couraging outlook for the young common
wealth , In spite of the present depression ,
Mr. NIIROII says tlmt Colorado's other re
sources will bo developed In the event that
her silver Interests are crushed. Ho writes
In part , as follow s : 1
"Denver stands toilay serena In all Its
stately grandeur the gum of the mountains.
Its heioio people bravely battling
with suddenly acquired tlnmiclnl %
versity. They arn gallantly feeding nnd
sheltering not only Denver's own but thou
sands of unemployed and destitute men ,
women and children who hnvo hastened
from many mining districts where work has
been largnly nbaiiuonod and interests tem
porarily paralyzed. invo
"While the people are depressed they have
rallied from des | > onduiii\v nmlthortiisu von
imity of sentiment that tbu origin of all tlio
trouble Is mainly the unprolltubloncss of
silver mining under present conditions , and
nro looking anxiously but hopefully to hose
comint , ' congressional session for such wise
legislation ns will afford not Only immediate
but pormunont relief , "

EX-HECEIVH1SHUST REPLIES.
Ornrrnt DrniNl oMtlHt l'hi re * Mmle liy the
Oir ltlon.
M Hyde Uust , o&recolvcr of the water
works company , h filed his answer In
federal court to thirnppllcatlon nnd motion
for his removal from that position. His an
swer is a general denial of the charges made
by the opposition.
In the first plnco.-tho answer denies that
the federal court of Hhis circuit has Juris
diction In the cnsoj claiming that the com
pany is a New Jer oy corporation that has
never boon Incorporated or domesticated in
any other part of the Unltod States , and Is
not n resident of Nebraska. It is therefore
claimed that the cnso should tmvo been
brought In the courts of Now Jersey , nnd
that this court is without jurisdiction to re
move the receiver.
The nnswor then recites the history oMIio
appointment of Mr. Uust as receiver nnd
dwells upon the fact that at that time no
objection was raised by any of the parties to
this suit , but by the local receivers , against
whom the court finally hold nnd n decree
was Issued in favor of the appointed of the
Now Jersey court , who assumed control of
the plant October 18. IS'JJ , and remained
in charge until July 15 , Ib03. Ho avers that
bo was always nnvlseu nnd never hcurd
to the contrary that ho was to make all
settlements as receiver in tllo court
of chancery of Now Jersey , nnd was never
required to administer the assets under the
direction of this court. This court never
gave him any instructions In the matter ,
with the silicic exception that Judge Culil-
wcll of this court nt St. Louis , where nn
order was applied for ratifying nn order of
the New Jersey court , pave Instructions that
duplicate copies of reports sent to Now
Jersey should bo flled In this court , which
order had nlways boon carefully obeyed.
He declared that it hnd nlways been his
object to obtain full possession of all the
plant here nnd In Colorado , that It might bo
managed economically nnd distributions
made with uue regard for the rights of nil in
Interest , and ho hnd not misstated or mis
represented any fact or thing to the court In
applying for recognition of the order of the
ow Jersey court. It was true that ho had
uovcr been receiver of the plant nt Denver ,
although ho had ondc.ivorcd to secure con
trol of it , and had ciurclscd riuo diligence ,
prudcnco nntt discretion In that direc
tion. Dennis Sullivan is receiver there , hnv-
hifr been appointed under n foreelosura pro- ,
cccdlng. lie is one of the complainants in
this case , but it was not true that nftlant
never Intended to disturb him as receiver of
that plant. It was true that ho hnd not ap
plied to be ulaced there as receiver In Sulli
van's stead , as his counsel in Denver , Mr.
Vnill , said Sullivan could not bo displaced ,
having been appointed under foreclosure
proceedings. Ho denied that ho had co-oper-
ntcd with Sullivan in kecplnc both
plants under control of the complainants.
As to the receipts of the company , hu In
sisted that the Income was greatly in excess
of what It was before ho assumed control.
He drew a salary of $ .100 per month , allowed
by order of the Now Jersey court , and he
had drawn hotel and traveling expenses ,
but It was all necess-iry in transacting the
business of the American Water Works
company. Hu had kept Mr. Alonro U. Hunt
doing the snino work that ho had performed
over since the organization of the company ,
nnd had tried to keep the ofllco force the
same. Ho had made no changes where any
of the former employes wore necessary to
the business of the company , He
denied that ho hnd paid Collins and Cor-
bln money , or that cither of them had ap
peared before the court at Llttlo Hock.
His only counsel lind been Charles Oftutt.
He had assumed and paid bills without the
order of this court , hut he had the authority
of the Now Jersey court to do so. Ho had
employed counsel to appear before this court
at LittlO Hock and St. Paul , although not
directed by this court to do so , but his honor ,
Alexander T. AlcGill. chancellor of New
Jersey , had cautioned him to employ the
best counsel he could secure whenever ho
needed nflvlco or was in doubt , and ho had
acted on it , and hud always been discreet
and prudent. Hu ucnled that ho had ex
pended thousands of dollars for counsel , as
the totrtl amount would not exceed $1,000.
He had mndo no unnecessary ; trips , nil
having been indispensable , and the
cost amounted to ubuut $2,000. Ho
insisted tUat the 'duties of 'tho position
could not hayo been properly performed
without the trips , nnd then set out what
wcie the circumstances under which each
trip was made.

Barney McGinn and George Dodrill , the

reported. A policeman said last eveninir :
"Sheriff Bennett would hardly take his
prisoners into another state where ho would
have to get requisition papers before ho
could bring thorn biu-k for trial. Then
Council Bluffs is so nearly a part of Omaha
that the murderers would not bo safe in that
pluro any more thanahey would in this city
m case a determined ulfort was inndo to
lynch thcni ! The sheriff took the men out
of the Jail Monday nltrht as a matter of pre
caution , but the. men are now believed to
have been brought back to the Douglas

Judge Dundy maao a ruling in the applica
tion for a receiver for tlio American Loan
and Trust company ycstcruay. As a ma
jority of the stockholders requested tlmt the
nlTaiis of the company bo left In the bunds
of the old ofllcers and board of directors hu
granted their request. The report of the
temporary receiver shows that the company
was forced Into liquidation by the recent
llnnnciul depression and tlmt It wns only a
question of time when they would be able to
realise on their securities and assets. Presi
dent Carter states that his company will
now go ahead \ > itltho business as if nothing
hnd happened. Kb also says the receiver's

WASHINGTON , Aug. 2. Speaker Crisp
baa been careful to talk in rather va uo
and nonoral terms coucorniiij' congres
sional ulTairn slneo ho returned to Wash
ington. But ho has at last given his
conlldouce to ono of the leading con
gressmen of the west , who was himself
n candidate for speaker two years ago.
The latter talked pretty freely as to Mr.
Crlsp'a disclosures. Ho."aid that all the
talk about the uncertainty of the leading
committees was idle , as it was now definitely -
finitely and positively Bottled tlmt im
portant changes would bo made.
William L. Wilson of West Virginia
Is to bo made chairman of the ways and
means committee In phuoof ) Mr.Springur ,
who will remain in the committee
if he so desires.
Governor Sayros of Texas Is to bo
mndo chairman of the committee on ap
propriations In place of "Watchdog"
llolinnn.
It appears also that Mr. Crisp has not
only settled these most important chair
manships , but ho has given considerable
attention to the nmko-up of the commit
tees as a whole.- For instance , ho has
learned that Bourke Cookran desires to
retire from the ways and means commit
tee , on which he served two years ago
in order to give all his time and energy
to the coinage committee.
It is also probable tlmt Mr. Bryan of
Nebraska will bo retired from the ways
and means committee , for his attain
ments are regarded as of an oratorical
and ornamental character , rather than
of a nature to delight in the dry statisti
cal detail of revenue moasuroj. It Is
certain that Mr. Bynum of Indiana will
bo retained on the ways and means com
mittee. It has also been determined
that Turner of Georgia and MoMillln of
Tonnest-co will remain on the ways and
means committee , and the latter will be
leader in the tnrilT debate. Concerning
the chairmatHhip of tlio
coinage com
mittee , it has been settled that Mr. Bland
shall not servo in that capacity. He is
expected to decline the ehairmanbhip
becaiiho it woul bo an empty honor with
the committee packed against him. If ,
however , ho does' not bee lit -to stop
aside , ho will be summarily dropped
from consideration. The leaning of Mr.
Crisp is toward Bourke Cockran as chair
man.

DIAMONDS IN A HOTEL.
Hotel Chicago Conference: I met Simon Onion Where . Stolen Goods Are Found. _
For the last three or four months the
fine jewelry of the Brunswick hotel have been
mistakenly money and articles of jewelry, and
on Sunday the police detectives were
called upon to solve the mystery of the
disappearance of the trinkets. After the
arrest of Mrs. Gilmore yesterday for receiving
stolen property in the shape of bolts of cloth
stolen from Hprjng's, the detectives found that their
prisoner was the same woman who for some months
had been sewing for guests of the hotel and she was
suspected.
Chief Detective Haze subjected the
woman to a rigorous questioning and yesterday
forcefully she broke down and confessed to
having stolen considerable of the property
of the guests of the Brunswick and professed
a willingness to show the owners where the
plunder was secreted. Accordingly Haze
took Mrs. Gilmore in his buggy and to her
residence at Fifty-second and Longfellow streets
and found secreted in the cellar four diamond
ring sets and one diamond scarf pin.
The fines recovered are worth $1,500 and
the pin $1,200. Other articles are still missing,
but the most valuable have been recovered. The
following guests of the hotel
have lost property, which has been taken
from their rooms recently: F. A. Prager,
diamonds; Mrs. Vallanco, gloves, shoes and
jewelry; Mrs. H. P. Johnson, money; W. F.
Sweezey, proprietor, diamond scarf pin,
The scarf pin which was recovered belongs to Mr.
Sweezey and a couple of the rings
are owned by Mr. Prager.
Employees of the house say that Mrs. Gilmore
was always well thought of by the guests and that
she did what work was given her very well. Until her arrest
no one ever suspected her, but as she had the run of the house it
was an easy matter for her to pick up little articles of jewelry and
pocketbooks left lying around loose.
The attorney for Mrs. Gilmore says that
his client's name is Mrs. Ella Guillemot and
that her husband, who died a couple of
years ago, was a physician in good standing.
She formerly lived in Iowa.
It is understood that some of the Brunswick people who have recovered their property will not
prosecute Mrs. Gilmore, but Chief Detective Haze will file a complaint of grand larceny against her just the same.
The police detectives are still working on the Larson tailor shop robbery and expect before the trial of the suspects comes up that they will have enough evidence to convict the entire gang. Although Detective Savage is confined to his bed, he had a hand in the affair along with the rest of the detective force, for the original tip regarding Mitch Fleming and Mrs. Gilmour came from the sick officer.
All of the people who have been arrested so far are held on suspicion, but the police expect to file grand larceny complaints in a day or so, as soon as they have collected all the evidence necessary to make a case. Following is the criminal record of the men now under arrest for burglarizing the tailor shop as shown by the books at police headquarters:
"Sloppy" Hewitt, pickpocket and all-around sneak.
John Koonoy, ex-convict and "porch climber."
Mitch Fleming has always associated with toughs and was once arrested with Red Culver and Mickey Gallagher for conspiring to rob a granger out of some money.
"Humpback" Welch is an all-around sneak.
Jim Alken has long been suspected by the police as being crooked. He is the man who brought Frank Buce, the notorious safe blower, here about eight years ago when he robbed Johnson's Jewelry store. Harvey Scales is a hack driver and has always been watched by the police.
The guaranteed cure for all headaches is Bromo-Seltzer. Trial bottle 10c.

COLORADO WILL RECOVER.
While temporary on Silver, the Contention State Still Other High It's Been.
A gentleman from Denver, at present sojourning in Omaha, was yesterday interviewed by a reporter as to his views on the situation in the Centennial state.
The visitor stated as his best information and belief that nothing until the price of silver went up could ever hope for any change for the better in the present deplorable condition of things in Denver and Colorado. And in fact, it's never been realized until now how dependent Colorado is on the silver industry, and how many pretty much every thing else has been either neglected or considered of secondary moment as compared with the white metal.
"It has been urged time and again," said the Denverite, "by conservative men like President Light, president of the Manufacturers' Exchange, that more attention be paid to other industries, as for instance the coal industry. Why, in the county of Gunnison alone there is as much coal as in the whole state of Pennsylvania, and in the whole state of Colorado there is as much coal as in any three states in the union. This may seem like overdrawing the matter, but our experts who have given it careful and intelligent attention declare this to be the fact. Then the wheat and grain crops in the southern part of the state are immense, and the agricultural interests of the state generally are beginning to loom up in great shape, but the enormous mineral resources of those communities seem to have overshadowed everything else, and for years to come the production of the precious metals will engross the greater part of public attention.
"The number of men employed in the mines and smelters will be better understood when it is stated that when the mines closed down 10,000 men were thrown out of employment, and then followed a slump in railroad traffic that added greatly to the general party. Of course, thousands of people are leaving the state, going back east to friends and where they will find work, but as soon as the price of silver goes up again these same people will be coming back, and it is predicted that the future of the state will be bright enough only if silver must rise before this can be done. There is a disposition to look on the bright side of things, and be cheerful and to wait for the hoped-for good times that will surely come."
The situation is indeed encouraging.
W. N. Mason, an Omaha who is at present in Colorado, writes to the Daily News an encouraging outlook for the young commonwealth, in spite of the present depression, Mr. Mason says that Colorado's other resources will be developed in the event that her silver interests are crushed. He writes in part, as follows:
"Denver stands today serene in all its stately grandeur, the gem of the mountains. Its heroic people bravely battling with suddenly acquired financial distress. They are gallantly feeding and sheltering not only Denver's own but thousands of unemployed and destitute men, women and children who have hastened from many mining districts where work has been largely abandoned and interests temporarily paralyzed. While the people are depressed they have rallied from despondency and short-sightedness of sentiment that the origin of all the trouble is mainly the unprofitableness of silver mining under present conditions, and are looking anxiously but hopefully to that coming, congressional session for such wise legislation as will afford not only immediate but permanent relief."

EX-RECEIVERS' REPLIES.
Eastern District of Nebraska, Office of the United States, Filed by the Union.
Charles H. Bust, receiver of the water works company, has filed his answer in federal court to the application and motion for his removal from that position. His answer is a general denial of the charges made by the opposition.
In the first place, the answer denies that the federal court of this circuit has jurisdiction in the case, claiming that the company is a New Jersey corporation that has never been incorporated or domesticated in any other part of the United States, and is not a resident of Nebraska. It is therefore claimed that the case should have been brought in the courts of New Jersey, and that this court is without jurisdiction to remove the receiver.
The answer then recites the history of the appointment of Mr. Bust as receiver and dwells upon the fact that at that time no objection was raised by any of the parties to this suit, but by the local receivers, against whom the court finally held and a decree was issued in favor of the appointed of the New Jersey court, who assumed control of the plant October 18, 1892, and remained in charge until July 15, 1903. He avers that he was always advised and never heard to the contrary that he was to make all settlements as receiver in the court of chancery of New Jersey, and was never required to administer the assets under the direction of this court. This court never gave him any instructions in the matter, with the sole exception that Judge Culin of this court at St. Louis, where an order was applied for ratifying an order of the New Jersey court, gave instructions that duplicate copies of reports sent to New Jersey should be filed in this court, which order had always been carefully obeyed.
He declared that it had always been his object to obtain full possession of all the plant here and in Colorado, that it might be managed economically and distributions made with due regard for the rights of all in interest, and he had not misstated or misrepresented any fact or thing to the court in applying for recognition of the order of the New Jersey court. It was true that he had ever been receiver of the plant at Denver, although he had endeavored to secure control of it, and had exercised every diligence, prudence and discretion in that direction. Dennis Sullivan is receiver there, having been appointed under a foreclosure proceeding. He is one of the complainants in this case, but it was not true that Sullivan never intended to disturb him as receiver of that plant. It was true that he had not applied to be placed there as receiver in Sullivan's stead, as his counsel in Denver, Mr. Vall, said Sullivan could not be displaced, having been appointed under foreclosure proceedings. He denied that he had cooperated with Sullivan in keeping both plants under control of the complainants.
As to the receipts of the company, he insisted that the income was greatly in excess of what it was before he assumed control. He drew a salary of $100 per month, allowed by order of the New Jersey court, and he had drawn hotel and traveling expenses, but it was all necessary in transacting the business of the American Water Works company. He had kept Mr. Alonso U. Hunt doing the same work that he had performed over since the organization of the company, and had tried to keep the office force the same. He had made no changes where any of the former employees were necessary to the business of the company. He denied that he had paid Collins and Corbin money, or that either of them had appeared before the court at Little Rock. His only counsel had been Charles Oftutt.
He had assumed and paid bills without the order of this court, but he had the authority of the New Jersey court to do so. He had employed counsel to appear before this court at Little Rock and St. Paul, although not directed by this court to do so, but his honor, Alexander T. McGill, chancellor of New Jersey, had cautioned him to employ the best counsel he could secure whenever he needed advice or was in doubt, and he had acted on it, and had always been discreet and prudent. He admitted that he had expended thousands of dollars for counsel, as the total amount would not exceed $1,000. He had made no unnecessary trips, all having been indispensable, and the cost amounted to about $2,000. He insisted that the duties of the position could not have been properly performed without the trips, and then set out what were the circumstances under which each trip was made.

When They Hunted Edward McEvanna and Andy Hays.
Barney McGinn and George Dodrill, the murderers of Edward McEvanna and Andy Hays, are not in Council Bluffs, as has been reported. A policeman said last evening: "Sheriff Bennett would hardly take his prisoners into another state where he would have to get requisition papers before he could bring them back for trial. Then Council Bluffs is so nearly a part of Omaha that the murderers would not be safe in that place any more than they would in this city in case a determined assault was made to lynch them! The sheriff took the men out of the Jail Monday night as a matter of precaution, but the men are now believed to have been brought back to the Douglas county jail, as there are no fears of an attempt to take the punishment of these men out of the hands of the courts."

Receiver Will be Appointed.
Judge Dundy made a ruling in the application for a receiver for the American Loan and Trust company yesterday. As a majority of the stockholders requested that the management of the company be left in the hands of the old officers and board of directors, he granted their request. The report of the temporary receiver shows that the company was forced into liquidation by the recent financial depression and that it was only a question of time when they would be able to realize on their securities and assets. President Carter states that his company will now go ahead with the business as if nothing had happened. He also says the receiver's report is very encouraging to the stockholders.

Members Who Will Not Help in the House This Session.
SPEAKER CRISP MAKES SOME DISCLOSURES
Wilson of West Virginia is to be made chairman of the ways and means committee in place of Mr. Springer, who will remain in the committee if he so desires.
Governor Sayres of Texas is to be made chairman of the committee on appropriations in place of "Watchdog" Holm.
It appears also that Mr. Crisp has not only settled these most important chairmanships, but he has given considerable attention to the makeup of the committees as a whole. For instance, he has learned that Bourke Cockran desires to retire from the ways and means committee, on which he served two years ago in order to give all his time and energy to the coinage committee.
It is also probable that Mr. Bryan of Nebraska will be retired from the ways and means committee, for his attainments are regarded as of an oratorical and ornamental character, rather than of a nature to delight in the dry statistical detail of revenue measures. It Is certain that Mr. Bynum of Indiana will be retained on the ways and means committee. It has also been determined that Turner of Georgia and McMillin of Tennessee will remain on the ways and means committee, and the latter will be leader in the final debate. Concerning the chairmanship of the coinage committee, it has been settled that Mr. Bland shall not serve in that capacity. He is expected to decline the chairmanship because it would be an empty honor with the committee packed against him. If, however, he does not care to stop aside, he will be summarily dropped from consideration. The leaning of Mr. Crisp is toward Bourke Cockran as chairman.

As usual, we devote a portion of midsummer to a feast of pleasantable luxuries.
This share is thin to know about apparel you appreciate when the mercury plays tricks with the thermometer. You want a shirt for comfort, not one for style, you'll find both in the stock we prepared for you. We have secured an entire building of a reputable shirt manufacturer at a premium rate. Armed with the choicest of the season, we proceed to share profits with the public as usual. Aside from a fat slice of an unfortunate manufacturer, you may depend upon striking a first-class article. Not even a good second in sight. Although we are prepared for a full week's rush, yet we would consider it wisdom on your part to call early and do justice to your curiosity. Shirt department ground floor in the store.
Three mighty values at 25c, 75c, and 50c are the lowest prices you ever could expect to get them at. Several dozens of different patterns to choose from. A prettier or more comfortable shirt for every day use cannot be obtained for double the money.
Buys a dollar and a dollar and a quarter black silk shirt. Dependable black that'll fight lye in the washing. All sizes you require.
Not one worth less than one and a quarter and cheap at that. Splendid collars and cuffs starched and the bosoms light and comfortable. Come early, as we expect a rush on these.
Not according to quality but to quantity, are these sterling values divided. There your own judgment amounts to much. French madras, imported Scotch and Irish challis, whipcord, silk striped linens, etc., from the materials three beauties are made of. You'll find nothing finer anywhere at any price.

DENVEII , Aug. 3. ( Special Telegram to

that MX ) occupant * at Illvorsido park re-
colvcditho news that their supply of dally
bread wns not to be cutoff for nt least n day.
For nearly a week U line been the Intention
to ao away with the public soup house , but
last night a now order was Issued and the
commissary department of the relief and
charitable associations will continue In busi
ness at the old stands. Thn meeting
which brought about this condition of
affairs was a spirited one which
did not adjourn until midnight. A largo
number of the members contended that
the camp elrow the vajrrants nnd the crim
inal class nnd thnt they would come and re
main hero as long as they were fed and fur
nished with a place to sleep. The men who
were of this opinion were iu thu minority ,
hence the fact that the boys are "tenting on
the old camp ground" tonight.
At the beginning of the week when the
railroad companies first issued the manifesto
of "full faro or no ride" Kollof camp had but
n handful of residents , but now the number
has increased and if heroic measures arc not
adopted by driving the hoboes out of town
the city will soon bo feeding ns many worth'
less creatures ns it did a few days.HBO. The
men who nightly slumber beneath the Unts
object to being called vugs nnd bums , but it
is their own actions thnt brand them as
such. During the early days of the
week , when the mayor wanted llf ty men to
go out und cut weeds , chop down trees nnd
clean the alleys , It wns with considerable
difficulty that the number was secured , and
each morning siuro then an effort has been
made to got u now gang nnd pass the work
aroujid. No fruits , however , have attended
the effort , for each tlmo the sumo party of
men will bo seen working In order to repay
the public for the charity that is being be
stowed upon them.
The course pursued by the 4 ! > 0 Is the rea
son why the people designate all of the men
as hoboes and nsk for the nbandontnent of
the resort where they congregate.

Secretary Morton was at his desk in the
Agricultural department a short tirau this
morning , after which ho met Tobias Castor
by appointment , and together they visited
Secretary Hoko Smith of the Interior de
partment nnd talked ever the appointment
of a number ot receivers ami registers for
the four oldest land ofllccs In Nebraska. It
is understood that they made recommenda i-
tions for appointments , tlio name of Chair
man Castor being used as endorser for both
himself and Secretary Morton and that the
papers in the various ofilccs will bo sent to
President Cleveland as soon as lie gets set
tled In the white house next week.
A number of land ofllccrs are to bo nomi
nated , if the program carries , by the end of
next week or the llrst of the week follow-
ing.
Omaha's Collector of Customs.
It is likely also that James McShano will
about the same time bo appointed collector
of customs at Omaha. irr
Secretary Morton and Chairman Custor
visited a number of other departments bo-
ules the Interior nnd investigated the sub- [
ect of Nebraska appointments m general ' ,
. 'ho llrst Nebraska appointments of impor-
unco will be tlio onlcers at Lincoln , McCook ,
Valentino and two or three . . other . places. J.
A. Fiko will bo appointed receiver at the
Valentino oftl co. There will soo'u bo 10a
argcly decreased list of. Nebraska land
onicvs. Tomorrow Chairman Castor will ; ido
over the entire list of land onices In No-
jraska with a view to recommending the
consolidating of n number of them ,
Secretary Smith having determined
to abolish about ono third 6f
; ha present ofllccs. It is contended
that there Is. little
very business before some
of the old onlcers und that several of the
districts established In IS'JO ' nro entirely too
small , and that in view of the diminution of
the available homesteads in Nebraska's
public domain the tmsincsa can oe easily
transacted by one-third of the present force
of onlcers. Those consolidations mean more
than would appear. They contemplate reti
clean sweep of the men now- holding the :
ofllccs at an early day.
Cantor Id'vlowii the ftltuntlon.
n questioned by TIIB'BKB correspond
ent this evening ns to the report that did
number of the offices would bo abolished und
all the ofllccrs removed. Air. Cnstor said ;
"Yes U Is Secretary Smith's intention to
reduce the number of land ofllco districts in
Nebraska and to do it at onco. I think that
in the consolidations ' the olllccs locqlct ) into
railroads nnd 'those mosteasy of access to
persons having business before tlio ofilcers
should bo retained , and that wherever there
ura ofllccs'abolished , those in remote sec :
tions and hard of access should bo the ones
dropped. I understand Bloomington will boone
ono of those abolished , and that most of
that district will bo ndded to the McCook
district. "

WASIIINOTON , Aug. 3. Hoprescntatlvo
Springer of Illinois , chairman of the ways
and means committee of the last congress ,
was at the cupltol toduy. In brief his
opinion Is that congress will not be In session
moro than a week or ton days In August. In
that tlmo hopeful Mr. Springer thought the
silver purchase clause of the Sherman act
will bo repealed nnd the ways nnd means
committee empowered to draft a tariff bill
for submission to congress when It recon
vened , which should be some time In October ,
As to the tariff , it Would bo Impossible for the
ways and moans committee to do justice to
the subject while the house is in constant
session. There wcro too ninny disturbing
elements and the surroundings are not
favorable for wise nnd safe legislation. But
if the committee was empowered to prepare
a bill nnd allowed to go to some quiet place
on the sea shore or elsewhere and pursue
its labors unmolested , the result would bo a
satisfactory bill. Touching the course of
the ways and means committee In dealing
with the ttiriff Springer said he would doubt
less report one ceneral tariff bill Instead of a
series of specific' bills.
War In Sltlit.
WASIIINOTON , Aug. 3. "If the president
ports company with the Chicago platform
i believe his party will part company with
him , " were the siglnKlcnnt words uttered by
Representative Gates this afternoon as ho
discussed the situation. The Chicago plat
form , upon which ho wns nominated and
which the people endorsed in such thunder
ing tones last November , calls for the repeal
of the Sherman law and the maintenance of
gold and silver as money upon a parity. Any
scheme which contemplates the abandon
ment of silver is antagonistic to that declara
tion of principles , and will not be supported
by the congress that Is to convene next
week. There can , in my opinion , bo no un
conditional repeal of the Sherman law , If
the president has set out to repeal the
Sherman net without offering anything in
in its place , ho has set up a platform not in
accordance with that upon which ho went
before the people. "
Mr. Outes looks for the repeal of the
Sherman law with a condition that will pro
vide for the frco coinage of silver at uu in
creased ratio.
Senator George came in today from Geor
gia. So far as the silver eiuestiou is con
cerned the senator plants hiiiHclf upon the
platform ho bus upheld in all nis speeches in
the senate , and says ho is a friend of silver
nnd ho has not changed his views ono whit.
Senator Squire of Washington is ono of
the few western senators who takes the
ground that the president should be. allowed
to deal with the silver question in his own
discretion. Ho bollovcs thnt it would bo
good policy for congress to pass n joint reso
lution permitting trja-vrcsidont to suspend
the operation of the silver purchase section
of the Sherman law at his owu discretion.
* Mr. IShiuil'H Opinion.
Mr. Bland , the champion of free coinage ,
arrived today and was seen in consultation
with members of his fulth who are In the
city. Ho said the friends' of silver Jiad
agreed upon " no plan of campaign , other than
that they "wero opposeel to the repeal of the
Sherman Jaw unless they were first given
free coinage of silver. Mr. Bland , In speak
ing of the ratio , said ho saw no reason to
change that now in force. So far as the
possibility of repeal was concerned Mr.
Bland wus emphatic in his declaration that
the unconditional repeal of the purchasing
clause could not be accomplished iu either
houso. .
hiL BOSTON. Aug. 3. Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge will leave for Washington Saturday.
Said ho iu nn interview : "I think congress
will repeal the purchasing clause of the
Sherman net , although it may not bo done
ejuite so promptly us is hoped huro. I do not
underrate the necessity for some afllrmativo
measures in regard to the currency. Some
thing ought to bo done looking to the sale of
the silver bullion in tlio treasury , under
proper : limitation , for gold. Some amend
ments : ought also to bo made to the national
bank act. But these measures can wait und
can bo much bettor handled after the repeal
is disposed of. "

DBS MOINKS , Aug. 3. [ Special Telegram
to THE Buc. ] Governor Boles today gave to
the press a letter lu which he declines to bo
u candidate for renominatlon for governor.
As his reason ho assigns the following : "I
am conscientiously opposed to third terms in
tin ofllcc so important as thut of governor of
a great state and in this view the unbroken
precedents of political interest in our state
teach that my views are in substantial ac
cord with those of tlio masses of all our pee
ple. "
The governor , continuing , says he wants
the party to stand squarely by its position
in favor of the election of United States sen
ators by the people , out thinks thut thin year
would bo unnecessarily forcing national
issue into the campaign nnd so ho advises
the party to make no nominations for the
United States senate. Ho Indicates prohi
bition and nonpai'Usan management of state
institutions ns the two issues which this
party ought to make prominent this year.
The letter is so definite ) that this party will
be compelled to accept it. He docs not say
whether or not ho will refuse to bo a candi
date for the senate before the next legisla
ture ,

Maud Wilson and Lllllo Hart , two colored
women with characters ns dusky as their

sized disturbance iu the vicinity of Ninth
street and Capitol avcuuo about G o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
Maud and I.llllo had imbibed a quantity
of vile liijuor and were In a mood for light
ing. Lllllo accused Maud of seeking to woo
the affections of her lover. This led
to ia rough-and-tumble light In which
Maud wtts hit over the * head with
a beer bottle. The bottle nnd the
"booze" wcro too mucli for Maud and she
fell into an unconscious state , causing the
bystanders to think that she had been
killed. Ono excited person telephoned thu
police that a woman had been murdered.
The patrol wagon arrived on the scene iu
ejuick timo. Maud wns convoyed to thu
Presbyterian hospital. A surgeon examined
her nnd found that the blow with the bottle
had not Injured Maud's head. Ho Instructed
the hospital attendants to send the woman
to her homo as soon us the effects of the
licjnor had worn off.
The police are searching for Lllllo Hart.
They claim that after Maud Wilson wus
taken to the hospital she grew worse , und it
is thought that she is suffering from con-
cussion of the brain.

VICTORY FOR THE HUNGRY
Camp Kelly at Denver Will Not Be Abandoned at Present.
PROFESSIONAL TRAMPS IN THE MAJORITY
Condition at Aspen Accompanying Alarming
Hundred Men Walking the Streets Without Work or Money
Scheme of Kelly.
DENVER, Aug. 3. (Special Telegram to THE HEK.) It was with feelings of delight that the occupants of Aspen park received the news that their supply of daily bread would not be cutoff for at least a day. For nearly a week it had been the intention to away with the public soup house, but last night a new order was issued and the commissary department of the relief and charitable associations will continue in business at the old stands. The meeting which brought about this condition of affairs was a spirited one which did not adjourn until midnight. A large number of the members contended that the camp welcomed the vagrants and the criminal class and that they would come and remain here as long as they were fed and furnished with a place to sleep. The men who were of this opinion were in the minority, hence the fact that the boys are "tenting on the old camp ground" tonight.
At the beginning of the week when the railroad companies first issued the manifesto of "full fare or no ride" Kelly camp had but a handful of residents, but now the number has increased and if heroic measures are not adopted by driving the hoboes out of town the city will soon be feeding as many worthless creatures as it did a few days ago. The men who nightly slumber beneath the tents object to being called bums and vagrants, but it is their own actions that brand them as such. During the early days of the week, when the mayor wanted sixty men to go out and cut weeds, chop down trees and clean the alleys, it was with considerable difficulty that the number was secured, and each morning since an effort has been made to get a new gang and pass the work around. No fruits, however, have attended the effort, for each time the same party of men will be seen working in order to repay the public for the charity that is being bestowed upon them.
The course pursued by the 4th is the reason why the people designate all of the men as hoboes and ask for the abandonment of the resort where they congregate.
TENS OF THOUSANDS WALKING THE STREETS WITHOUT WORK OR MONEY.
ASPEN, Colo., Aug. 3. [Special Telegram to THE BAN.] Times are becoming close here and thousands of men are walking the streets out of work and without a cent of money in their pockets. Thousands of the miners in this district took advantage of the days and dates when the railroads were carrying the men from Denver to Missouri river points free of charge, while many of the silver mines in the Aspen district have closed down there are still great many men in the mountains who will suffer unless they get speedy relief.
The Chamber of Commerce has made arrangements to purchase all the city and county warrants issued for the employment of men, the plan having been recommended by the organization. The warrants will be paid in full, less 60 cents for each day's work, which is to go into the relief fund. Several men have been set at work. They will work a week and then give way to others.
WOULD NOT ACCEPT A CUT.
Leadville Says It Would Not Accept Lower Wages and Stricter Rules.
DENVER, Aug. 5. A special from Leadville says: Trouble occurred at the Arkansas Valley smelter today when the company announced a reduction of 10 percent in all wages, to take effect at once. Quite a number of the men considered this a fair proposition. About 400 worked, but the strike came off and the strikers got together and drove the men who were at work out of the smelter. Quite a scrimmage ensued, stones and clubs being generally used, but no one is reported seriously injured, although seven men were badly pounded up.
The plant will be shut down for the present at least.
A meeting will be held tomorrow to adjust matters. The captain of the Leadville militia has asked the adjutant general at Denver for arms and ammunition for use in case of necessity.
Colorado Pills Reach Missouri.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 5. The Colorado train on the Santa Fe railway which reached the Union depot at 7 o'clock last evening brought about 100 unemployed men from Colorado. They had paid their fare to Kansas City at the reduced rate granted them by the railroads.
The Union depot authorities declare that not more than twenty of them were laboring men. About fifty of the men went to the freight yards immediately after they arrived and boarded freight trains for the east, and some of the others paid their fare to various places. No effort was made to care for the men, and they did not ask for food or assistance.
Arrest of Two Little Airs Who Have Terrorized Part of New York,
NEW YORK, Aug. 5. The police have unearthed a criminal novelty. Two girls have been operating in this city with the daring and success of professional cracksmen. For some weeks past the police of the East Sixty-seventh street station have heard complaints of robberies committed in their precinct in broad daylight. Many of these robberies were in fact, it was first thought that an organized gang of experienced crooks were operating, so cleverly was the work done and so readily did the authors escape detection. Losses aggregating $23,641 were reported to the police.
Today the police arrested two girls, 15 and 13 years old, respectively. They were Katie Boyne and Phillipa Cooney. Katie confessed to the thefts, and said she pawned the stolen articles to the amount of several hundred dollars. She said she spent the money for family.
MAY DAY OUTLOOK
What the Alleys Mill Has Done That the World May Know.
MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 5, The Northwestern Miller says: There was a decrease in the flour output last week of 600 barrels. The total made was 181,075 barrels, against 187,690 barrels the week before and 113,315 barrels for the corresponding week in 1873. One mill that has been idle for ten months, owing to dull markets, was started Monday. There were seventeen mills running today.
The flour market, as a result of a heavy decline in wheat, is unsettled and weak. Prices, in sympathy with those of wheat, are 5 to 10 cents per barrel lower. The mills on foreign account were largest the past week. The direct export shipments by the mills last week were 78,800 barrels, against 76,300 barrels the preceding week.
Movements of Corn and Oats at the Markets:
At New York: Arrived Allen, from Boston; Dakota, from Hamburg.
At Southampton: Arrived Friedrichshaven, from New York.
At Felixtowe: Passed Philadelphia, from Boston.
Elections in Indian Territory.
Canton, I. T., Aug. 5. The election yesterday resulted in a victory for the Republican party in all municipal officers, but the members of the council will be considerably mixed. The Jones party elected its representatives in this (Slue) county. About 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon a free-for-all fight took place and the streets were full of drunken, fighting Indians. At one time it seemed as though the fight would terminate seriously, as stones, knives, and revolvers were brought into service, but it was stopped before anything serious occurred.
Workers of Philetism Take Reforms of the World's Conference.
Chicago, Aug. 3. World's fair weather continues perfect; not a cloud is in the sky and the temperature is just right for going about outdoors. The management is actively engaged in cutting down expenses by lopping off unnecessary employees, and it is believed bedrock will be reached by the close of the week. In this way, it is expected that $200,000 will be saved in the next three months. The payment of bonds begins within the next ten days.
The Iowa editors and their families, to the number of nearly 150, were at the fair today. They came in a body to the grounds and went at once to the picturesque Iowa state building. President J. W. Jarrett of the Montezuma Republican made an address of welcome. Lafayette Young of the Des Moines Capital responded. Commissioner Ebbach also made an address. Then refreshments were served; after which the party went around the grounds on the Intramural railway; thence to the Administration building, where the editors paid their respects to the national commission. Later, the Iowa board of lady managers gave a reception in the Iowa building to the editors.
The Russians held a celebration today in honor of Empress Marie's nameday. Evidence of a startling nature, concerning the cold storage warehouse fire, was taken by the grand jury today. The witness who gave the startling testimony was John Joseph Duggan, formerly a Stony Island avenue saloon keeper and the man who first told of the looting of the cold storage warehouse and its burning by a gang of robbers. When he came out of the Jury room, he said he had made a clean breast of it all. According to Mr. Duggan, there were 150 men concerned in the conspiracy. He said that from the opening of the exposition, right up to the time of the fire, goods were stolen, or at least removed from the cold storage warehouse by the wagon load. The wagons used were express wagons, though he had known of water carts going out of the gates with tanks filled.
"Who removed these goods?" was asked; "Employees of the cold storage warehouse and a gang that lives on Stony Island avenue, just outside the grounds." "Did you give evidence that would imply criminally, the persons who removed the goods?" "Yes; there will be a sensation when this whole thing comes out." More witnesses to the affair will be called tomorrow.
Inspector Thirteenth, who was dismissed from the Administration building as a result of his encounter with Commissioner St. Clair, was today reinstated. The order restoring him to his old position came from the council of administration with the consent of Commissioner St. Clair.
Scotland's day will begin early tomorrow morning and last until late at night. There will be a parade of Highlanders and a hundred or more pipers through the grounds shortly afterward, and a meeting in Festival hall at 2 o'clock. In the evening a fine program of Scottish music will be given in Festival hall.
Colored people from all parts of the country will visit the fair. The excursion committee has secured concessions from several railroads and trains will be run from the southeast and west.
The national commission met today. Major Jones of the New York World is a member of the commission from Missouri. Commissioner Ebbach made a short address, in which he stated that the Iowa editors had been no mean factor in bringing about the meeting. Mr. Lafayette Young of Des Moines, Commissioner Crosby of Iowa and others made bright addresses.

TWO DOZEN DEMOCRATS GIVEN PLACES
Indication That the State Land Office Will Be in the Hands of the Next Brethren

National Committeeman Tobias Castor brought a free flow of Republican blood at the Post Office department today. He secured the appointment of two dozen Democratic postmasters for Nebraska, as follows: Albany, Sheridan county, S. S. Jolce, vice W. D. McIntyre, resigned. Barton, Keith county, J. Q. Wolford, William Holliday, resigned. Burchard, Pawnee county, T. A. Laird, vice J. C. Dort, removed. Cook, Johnson county, S. A. Loach, vice N. B. Yarwood, removed. Crab Orchard, Johnson county, J.

Winfield, Knox county, J. D. Sheridan, vice J. T. Culbertson, resigned.
Another list today.
Another large list of new postmasters are promised for Nebraska tomorrow. The papers for the appointment of Thomas W. Shryock, at Louisville, Custer county; Hiram P. Wilcoxson, at Blairwood, Cass county; Henry Baker, at Cedar Creek, W. T. Haven, at Valparaiso, Saunders county, and John Stewart, at Weston, Johnson county, have been made out and their appointments will be promulgated this week.
Other appointments of postmasters are as follows: Iowa, Albinsworth, Washington county, J. H. Pearson, vice W. A. Walter, removed; Kossuth, Des Moines county, H. S. Hedges, vice John Bridges, removed; Lockridge, Jefferson county, Miss Stella Dutton, vice A. G. Smith, removed; Sioux
Hudson, Buena Vista county, Henry Moore, vice J. M. Hoskins, removed.
South Dakota, Doane, Faulk county, C. J. Cooper, vice Hiram Dowolf, resigned.
Secretary Morton was at his desk in the Agricultural department a short time this morning, after which he met Tobias Castor by appointment, and together they visited Secretary Coke Smith of the Interior department and talked over the appointment of a number of receivers and registers for the four oldest land offices in Nebraska. It is understood that they made recommendations for appointments, the name of Chairman Castor being used as endorser for both himself and Secretary Morton and that the papers in the various offices will be sent to President Cleveland as soon as he gets settled in the white house next week.
A number of land officers are to be nominated, if the program carries, by the end of next week or the first of the week following.
Omaha's Collector of Customs.
It is likely also that James McShane will about the same time be appointed collector of customs at Omaha. Secretary Morton and Chairman Castor visited a number of other departments besides the Interior and investigated the subject of Nebraska appointments in general, the first Nebraska appointments of importance will be the officers at Lincoln, McCook, Valentine, and two or three other places. J. A. Fike will be appointed receiver at the Valentine office. There will soon be a greatly decreased list of Nebraska land officers. Tomorrow Chairman Castor will do over the entire list of land offices in Nebraska with a view to recommending the consolidating of a number of them, Secretary Smith having determined to abolish about one third of the present offices. It is contended that there is little very business before some of the old officers and that several of the districts established in 1880 are entirely too small, and that in view of the diminution of the available homesteads in Nebraska's public domain, the business can be easily transacted by one-third of the present force of officers. Those consolidations mean more than would appear. They contemplate a clean sweep of the men now holding the offices at an early day.
Castor follows the function.
Asked by THE BEE correspondent this evening as to the report that did number of the offices would be abolished and all the officers removed, Mr. Castor said: "Yes, it is Secretary Smith's intention to reduce the number of land office districts in Nebraska and to do it at once. I think that in the consolidations, the offices located in railroads and those most easily of access to persons having business before the officers should be retained, and that wherever there are offices abolished, those in remote sections and hard of access should be the ones dropped. I understand Bloomington will be one of those abolished, and that most of that district will be added to the McCook district."
Poor prospects for the Indian.
It was stated to The BEE correspondent today by one who has the confidence of Speaker Crisp that Mr. Holman of Indiana, who is marked for promotion from the house committee on appropriations, will be made chairman of the committee on Indian affairs. It will be recalled that as a member of the committee, Mr. Holman has been at the head of two or three junketing committees, which have gone from the house into various Indian reservations and made alleged "investigations" into the conduct of Indian agencies and that he has always led the raid upon appropriations for the support of Indians. Under Holman, the red man will not advance except in the direction of barbarity and starvation.

ON THE SUBJECT OF PENSIONS.
Commissioner Lochren Writes a Letter for
Publication.
WASHINGTON: D. C., Aug.8. Commissioner
of Pensions Lochren has addressed a letter
to the editor of the National Tribune upon
the subject of pensions. It says: "I have
not complied with your repeated request
that I should cause a 'test to be made to
show the number of fraudulent pensions by
having 1,000 cases drawn from the admitted
files and examined. I have not done this
for several reasons.
"First, Fraudulent pension claims must
originally have been obtained upon false or
forged testimony. On the face of papers
such would probably appear to be well
established and incontestable.
"Second, No one whose opinion is entitled to
consideration has, as you think, had the
hardship to claim that the great mass of the
adjudicated pension cases is permeated with
fraud, open and plain on the papers, so that
the examination of 1,000 cases would disclose
an instance.
"Third, Examination of June 27, 1800, cases
is made, not because of any trust on the part
of the claimants, but because it was discovered
that the bureau had, by the adoption of
an erroneous rule for adjudication, allowed
many pensions not authorized by law. All
pension frauds and erroneous claims are
presumed to have been properly granted and
are now examined.
Commissary Lochren continues: "Under
the law of June, 1819, disability need not
be of service origin, but to be pensionable at
all disability must incapacitate the person
from manual labor so as to render him unable
to earn support. The board of revision
was constituted of the ablest and most
experienced men of the bureau to re-examine
these cases and call but such as have no
legal basis to rest upon. This board, including
the chief, is almost all Republicans and
I have no fear to commit the work of revision
to this board. They are able and fair
men and select from day to day from cases
examined such cases as they deem unlawfully
allowed. If that was the class of cases
you wished drawn and examined, the work
is done every day by this board."

LONDON, Aug. 8. According to the Lancet,
the well known English medical weekly,
cholera has been epidemic in Marseilles for
the last three months. The local officials,
it is asserted, have carried their policy of
deception to such length that even the
government has been led astray in regard to
the real state of affairs. The prefecture now
admits that there have been 600 deaths from
cholera in Marseilles since the middle of
May. On some days there were twenty deaths
recorded, and on last Saturday the mortality
went up to fifty-two. During the last four
weeks there have been 8,620 deaths from
cholera throughout France.
London of Disease.
LONDON, Aug. 3. A Rome correspondent
says: Since the outbreak of cholera in
Naples more than 100,000 residents have
fled from the city. The official reports greatly
understate the facts. The report for Sunday
last said that there were nineteen new cases
and nine deaths. Fabulous private
advices declare that there were fifty-two new
cases and twenty-eight deaths on that day,
and forty-nine new cases and twenty-seven
deaths on Monday. The official figures for
Tuesday are eighteen new cases and six deaths.
Several cases of cholera have occurred in
Rome.

POSTAL.
Office Arrives Delivered
In anticipation of the country opening of the Cherokee
trip to settlement, a line of intending settlers began to form in front of the Kingfisher land office today at noon. At first there were only three or four persons in line, but the number rapidly increased until there are now fully forty. This movement created considerable excitement, as there are many men of prominence, influence, and intelligence in the line. What private information the leaders in the movement, if any, have, no one knows. The land office officials claim to have no information from Washington whatever upon the subject.
Pending the opening of Cheyenne and Arapaho country in the spring of 1803 the first man to get in line in front of the land office was one Keith, who made the trip from Los Angeles, Cal., for that purpose. He got off the train and went direct to the land office and took up his position, holding it for about six weeks. He got one of the richest claims in the country.

Mr. Springer Thinks Congress Will Soon
Dispose of the Sherman Law,
WHAT THE DEMOCRATS PROPOSE TO DO
Interests Forgetting of Coming Constitutional
Election from the Illinois (Frate).
In Other Democratic (Give
Expression to Their Thoughts.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. Representative
Springer of Illinois, chairman of the ways
and means committee of the last congress,
was at the Capitol today. In brief, his
opinion is that congress will not be in session
more than a week or ten days in August. In
that time hopefully Mr. Springer thought the
silver purchase clause of the Sherman act
will be repealed and the ways and means
committee empowered to draft a tariff bill
for submission to congress when it recon
venes, which should be some time in October,
As to the tariff, it would be impossible for the
ways and means committee to do justice to
the subject while the house is in constant
session. There were too many disturbing
elements and the surroundings are not
favorable for wise and safe legislation. But
if the committee was empowered to prepare
a bill and allowed to go to some quiet place
on the sea shore or elsewhere and pursue
its labors unmolested, the result would be a
satisfactory bill. Touching the course of
the ways and means committee in dealing
with the tariff, Springer said he would doubtless
report one general tariff bill instead of a
series of specific bills.
War in Spain.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. "If the president parts company with the Chicago platform, I believe his party will part company with him," were the significant words uttered by Representative Gates this afternoon as he discussed the situation. The Chicago platform, upon which he was nominated and which the people endorsed in such thundering tones last November, calls for the repeal of the Sherman law and the maintenance of gold and silver as money upon a parity. Any scheme which contemplates the abandonment of silver is antagonistic to that declaration of principles, and will not be supported by the congress that is to convene next week. There can, in my opinion, be no unconditional repeal of the Sherman law, if the president has set out to repeal the Sherman law without offering anything in its place, he has set up a platform not in accordance with that upon which he went before the people.
Mr. Gates looks for the repeal of the Sherman law with a condition that will provide for the free coinage of silver at an increased ratio.
Senator George came in today from Georgia. So far as the silver question is concerned, the senator plants himself upon the platform he has upheld in all his speeches in the senate, and says he is a friend of silver and he has not changed his views one whit.
Senator Squire of Washington is one of the few western senators who takes the ground that the president should be allowed to deal with the silver question in his own discretion. He believes that it would be good policy for congress to pass a joint resolution permitting the try-president to suspend the operation of the silver purchase section of the Sherman law at his own discretion.
Mr. Bland, the champion of free coinage, arrived today and was seen in consultation with members of his party who are in the city. He said the friends of silver had agreed upon "no plan of campaign, other than that they were opposed to the repeal of the Sherman law unless they were first given free coinage of silver. Mr. Bland, in speaking of the ratio, said he saw no reason to change that now in force. So far as the possibility of repeal was concerned, Mr. Bland was emphatic in his declaration that the unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause could not be accomplished in either house.
BOSTON, Aug. 3. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge will leave for Washington Saturday. Said he in an interview: "I think congress will repeal the purchasing clause of the Sherman law, although it may not be done quite so promptly as is hoped here. I do not underrate the necessity for some affirmative measures in regard to the currency. Something ought to be done looking to the sale of the silver bullion in the treasury, under proper limitations, for gold. Some amendments ought also to be made to the national bank act. But these measures can wait and can be much better handled after the repeal is disposed of."
HIGHLIGHTS TO FILE:
Iowa's Governor Dellinity Recunches the Nomination for a Third Term.
DES MOINES, Aug. 3. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] Governor Boles today gave to the press a letter in which he declines to be a candidate for renomination for governor. As his reason, he assigns the following: "I am conscientiously opposed to third terms in office so important as that of governor of a great state and in this view the unbroken precedents of political interest in our state teach that my views are in substantial accord with those of the masses of all our people."
The governor, continuing, says he wants the party to stand squarely by its position in favor of the election of United States senators by the people, but thinks that this year would be unnecessarily forcing a national issue into the campaign and so he advises the party to make no nominations for the United States senate. He indicates prohibition and nonsupport of public management of state institutions as the two issues which this party ought to make prominent this year.
The letter is so definite that this party will be compelled to accept it. He does not say whether or not he will refuse to be a candidate for the senate before the next legislature.
Insured Goods Returned.
CHICAGO, ILL., Aug. 8, [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] A few days ago local insurance agents were notified that there would be a 10 percent increase on insurance rates August 1. Many policy holders, whose insurance expires during the month of August, had their policies canceled and took out new policies before the 1st at the old rates. Inspector Redfield objects to this plan to circumvent his order, and all such policies have been returned with instructions to renew them at the new rate or lot at all. The business men are loud in their denunciation of the increase, feeling they should not be taxed to make up losses in other cities.
MASON CITY, IOWA, Aug. 3. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] On Wednesday night a raid was made by Sheriff Clark on a "hole-in-the-wall" kept by Hugh Fleming. He found 178 bottles of beer, which will be condemned and destroyed. Mason City means to keep clear of saloons.

All were well on board at Sydney this afternoon.
CLAYTON, IOWA, the Scene of a Distressing Accident.
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 3. A distressing accident, that has resulted in the death of at least four people and injuries to probably fifteen or twenty others, occurred this evening at the boathouse of the Chelsea Yacht club on Broadway, Chelsea, near the Charlestown bridge over the Mystic river. A band was playing on the pier in front of the club house and many people had filled the balcony, directly over the musicians' heads. Suddenly the balcony gave way and its occupants were thrown upon the pier and many of them into the water. An alarm of fire was sounded and the firemen did grand work in rescuing the injured. The following is a list of the dead as far as known at present, although there may be other bodies that have not yet been found:
J. H. WARREN, leader of the band, Chelsea.
Mrs. A. P. PUTNAM, Chelsea.
A. J. PENNIFERSON, Menlo.
Mrs. AUGUSTA E. SHUMAN, Chelsea.
Miss SADIE DAVIS, Chelsea, depressed fracture of the skull.

MAY BE AMONG THE DEAD.
Ellie Hurt Sticks Maud WINON with a Hot Tin, Oiling Alarch Disturbance
Maud Wilson and Ellie Hart, two colored women with characters as dusky as their complexions, succeeded in raising a large-sized disturbance in the vicinity of Ninth Street and Capitol Avenue about 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Maud and Illilo had imbibed a quantity of vile liquor and were in a mood for fighting. Illilo accused Maud of seeking to woo the affections of her lover. This led to a rough-and-tumble fight in which Maud was hit over the head with a beer bottle. The bottle and the "booze" were too much for Maud and she fell into an unconscious state, causing the bystanders to think that she had been killed. One excited person telephoned the police that a woman had been murdered. The patrol wagon arrived on the scene in quick time. Maud was convoyed to the Presbyterian hospital. A surgeon examined her and found that the blow with the bottle had not injured Maud's head. He instructed the hospital attendants to send the woman home as soon as the effects of the liquor had worn off.
The police are searching for Illilo Hart. They claim that after Maud Wilson was taken to the hospital she grew worse, and it is thought that she is suffering from concussion of the brain.
POLITICIANS.
Tenny Moot and Noncandidate a Trial Extracts From Their Platform.
Richmond, Va., Aug. 8. The populists of Virginia met here in convention today. Nearly 500 delegates were in attendance and there was not a negro among them. Among the visiting statesmen was Congressman Pence from Colorado. Pence addressed the convention. In the course of his speech, he bitterly assailed Mr. Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle, quoting from a speech of the latter delivered some years ago in strong condemnation of the financial policy to which he seems to be now committed. Pence's speech created much enthusiasm.
A full state ticket was nominated, headed by E.U. Cockfield for governor. The platform declares for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 and a national currency issued by the general government and distributed directly to the people on the security of their property. The preamble to the platform severely arraigns President Cleveland, who was elected for the express purpose of relieving the people from the robberies of the McKinley tariff, but who calls congress, not to repeal the robber tariff, but to consummate the fraud of 1873, which demonetized silver.
ROBBED JOHN THORN.
Illegal: "High toned" Conduct in Brooklyn and Forest Hills.
John Thorn, coachman for John M. Thorne, was held up by two masked highwaymen at Thirty-first avenue and Davenport street shortly after 11 o'clock last night. The men stepped from the dark shadows along the sidewalk and pointing a big gun at John ordered him to "stand and deliver." John stood, but he didn't deliver, for one of the men went through his pockets in a short time. As it was after banking hours they didn't get much, and told John to neither run nor walk but to walk east on Davenport street. John started off at a quarter gallop, but the robbers did not think he was going fast enough and sent a shot whistling uncomfortably close to his ears. Then John imitated a full-grown cyclone on a business trip.
The robbers escaped and Mr. Thorn reported the matter to the police. Special officers were put on the trail, but at an early hour this morning they had made no arrests.
One of the Guests at a Feast in Honor of the Czar's Birthday.
Czestochowa, Aug. 8. Joseph Czeczot created a lively row at a feast held tonight in honor of the birthday of the czar of Russia. The festival was held in the Greek church and fully 600 people were in attendance. When it was proposed to drink the health of the czar, Czeczot made a violent speech denouncing crowned heads in general and that of Russia in particular. He wound up by snatching a portrait of the czar from the table, throwing it on the floor and stamping on it, A free fight ensued between the admirers of the czar and the admirers of Czeczot, The latter made his escape by forcing his way through the crowd with a knife in his hand, inflicting several slight wounds on several people. Six arrests were made, but Czeczot was not among them.
For Action.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3. The general committee chosen by the silver convention met today and organized by the election of General A. J. Warner of Ohio president; G. P. Washburne of Massachusetts, secretary; Colonel A. C. Fish of Colorado and H. F. Tauchneck of Illinois were made honorary members, Subcommittees were appointed and it was decided that all meet in Washington on Tuesday to remain throughout the session, if necessary.

REBELS DICTATE TERMS
Provincials of Argentina Submit Their Ultimatum to the Governor,
WHAT SANTA FE'S CONTINGENT DEMANDS
Complete Surrender of the Authorities of the District and Restoration of Constitutional Government.
PROVINCE PROVINCE in the Department of the Administration.
1883 by James (Boston) London:
VAU-HAISSO, Chile (via Galveston, Tex.), Aug. 8. [By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to THE Heralds.] The Herald's correspondent in Buenos Aires telegraphs that the revolutionists in Santa Fe have sent an ultimatum to the vice governor of that province. The terms of the ultimatum demand an immediate capitulation and the disarmament of the government troops. In the province of San Luis a decree has been issued authorizing the provisional governor of Santa Fe, Senor Gasilaster, to use all of his efforts to preserve order in that province. The federal government will not intervene yet.
The situation in La Plata is more serious. A thousand well-equipped revolutionists are ready to attack the city unless the governor capitulates. If the demonstration continues, the national government will intervene and put an end to hostilities.
From Rio Janeiro the Herald correspondent telegraphs that the cabinet has resigned. Since the publication of his letter to United States Minister Eagan there has been feeling of hostilities against Minister Erasmus. This has been so pronounced recently that he has been compelled to resign his cabinet position. Owing to the Eagan letter scandal and other causes, President Molina accepted his resignation.
Although the arms on board the Scramas have the official seal of the consul from Ecuador, it is thought their destination is for some other point. It is known that hostility against Peru by Ecuador and Bolivia is not at all cordial. The former has a grievance on account of the boundary dispute. Bolivia is bringing up old complaints.
Heavy Contribution of Arms.
The Chilean government has sold Ecuador 5,000 rifles, 4,000,000 cartridges, a quantity of shot and shell, and twenty mountain guns. Bolivia will receive a like quantity of arms and cartridges soon.
PANAMA, Colombia (via Galveston, Tex.), Aug. 8. [By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to THE Herald.] Patrick Eagan, formerly minister of the United States to Chile, is a passenger on the steamer which sailed for New York today.
The officers of the Colombian government formally apologized to British Minister Warner for the attack made on him by the residents of Bogota in February last. News has been received here from Tegucigalpa, Honduras, that Ponciano Leiva has formally renounced the presidency of that republic. Advices from San Jose, Costa Rica, announce that President Rodriguez is ill. Minister of War Yglesias is in temporary charge of the government. Yellow fever is again raging in Limon. From La Libertad, Salvador, comes news of another unsuccessful revolutionary uprising. The leaders were discovered and shot and many accomplices imprisoned.
THE GOVERNMENT.
A mirthful: "Hartford Talked 31 r. (Hotels on Farmington * Junction)."
LONDON Aug. In Commons today Sir Ellis Ashmead Bartlett (conservative) asked the government whether, since the stoppage of the free mining of silver in India, there had been, as stated, a depreciation in the value of securities held in England to the amount of £130,000; whether the supply of gold was not insufficient for the monetary requirements of trade, and what measures the government proposed to take to avert a financial crisis! In Prime Minister Gladstone replied that he did not know how to ascertain the truth of the assertion that a decline to the amount referred to had taken place in the value of securities held in England, he did not believe the supply of gold was insufficient for trade requirements, and could not announce a failure to avert a crisis that he did not believe would occur.
Emsland Accident on Board the German Ironclad Linden at Kiel today. Three seamen were killed and seventeen wounded.
Ellis Maintains the Blockade. A dispatch from Bangkok, dated Thursday night, says: Nothing has been done yet to carry out the presumed instructions to the French officials to raise the blockade. Residents are still very fearful, and the opinion is that Admiral Hunnam is receiving orders through Saigon, where the forwarding party is delaying them in the hope that events may be able to force France to increase her demands.
HOME, Aug. The efforts of the government to stamp out the phylloxera in northern Italy have led to serious conflicts with the peasants. The minister of agriculture ordered the destruction of vineyards covering a large area in the province of Nova. The peasants, losing employment, began to riot. Many were injured in conflicts with the police. Troops have been sent to the area of disturbance.
Apology to the French Captain. The Bangkok correspondent to the Times telegraphs as follows: by Admiral Hunnam's command, the captain of the French gunboat Lion has made an unreserved apology to Captain Mullod for having steamed down, with his crew at quarters and guns out, upon the Pallas, which was lying outside the blockade line.
Port Louis Destroyed by Fire. LONDON, Aug. The Paris correspondent of the Times says that nearly one-third of the town of Port Louis, the capital of the Island of Mauritius, was destroyed by fire on July. Eight streets were burned, including the principal commercial thoroughfare. About 600 houses were consumed. The loss amounts to more than 1,000,000 rupees.
No Decision of the Bering Sea Tribunal. PARIS, Aug. The Associated Press correspondent is authorized to deny all published statements regarding action by the Bering Sea tribunal. The arbitrators have arrived at no decision.
Fire in St. Petersburg. PETROPAVLOSK, Aug. 3. One hundred and eighty houses in the town of Brisk, Greting, were burned last night. Seven people were killed and many injured. | 24 |

Aug. n.The overshadowing
question this morning in ilnanclnl circles
was the scarcity of currency. At many
banks it was admitted that cash payments
for largo checks ever the counters had been
suipcndcd for some days , except In cases
whore It'WAS , known that the actual cash
was necessary. In other words , the banks
used discrimination , and wliero It was
thought the tjomand for actual cash ( cur
rency ) wasr/or the purpose of hoarding , the
bank insisted on a certified check being taken.
Uomcstlc Kxrhnngn.
lh the very general collapse of the machin
ery of domestic exchange the collection of
drafts on batiks In other towns and cities
has boon managed on an unusual scheme.
Usually when a Now York bank depositor
turns in a chock drawn to his order
on an out of town bank tlio Now York
bank remits to Its own correspondent
in the same place for collection , or else sends
direct to the bank drawn upon. In both
cases out of town banks have either delayed
remitting or have neglected exchange , and
thus charging up to the Now York bank the
cost of oxchango. The city banks have ,
therefore , resorted In nn unusually largo
measure of late to direct collection through
the express companies , which make n spe
cialty ( presenting drafts direct nt distant
points ! drawing out the money and shipping
It to Now York. The cost of this transac
tlon has for a long time been materially
below the rate charged for interior ex
change.
Many curious incidents are related by the
bankers ns to the working or such collection.
Some otitsido banks have taken paiua to pay
such drafts in inconvenient currency ,
notably standard silver dollars. Ono
case Is mentioned of a country
bank on which a draft for several thousand
dollars was collected returning tlio money
in gold , ? IO ( ) In standard silver dollars and
fGOO in subsidiary coin , almost entirely
dimes , with a liberal sprinkling of Canadian
piece * . It is qulto probable , unless the
draft actually exhausted the llttlo bunk's
resources , that the country banker got the
better of its city creditors , for the loss on exchange -
change coulu hardly have exceeded the vir
tual loss on non-legal tender.
Sln l 1'Jirt with Their Honda.
Whllo the majority of savings banks of.
flclnls pcislsted today In saying that they
will not bo'temptcd to part with their gov
ernment bonds , yet a well informed minority
of them declare that it is unavoidable. A
former savings bank piesidcnt , and now the
head of u trust company which has cxtcn
slvodoalltigs withsavings bankssaid that the
sale of bonds would not bo necessary. Ho
explained as follows : "Tho savings bank
nro well prepared for the scarcity , und It is
not entirely unexpected. They have guardci
their reserves fully by the application of the
notlco rule , and previous similar experiences
go to show that the notices given will not bo
availed of. "
Ho explained by relating that when Iu
was president of a savings bank in 1873 the
notices given him iu that time called for
$000,000. 'Iho notices were for sixty days.
At the end of that time only $ ! ! 00,000 were
taken , nnd adding : "I cannot now remem
ber tbo proportion , but I do recollect d Is-
k tinctly that returns were made daily. This
shown , of course , that hoarding is going on
to enormous amounts ; and as evidence of
this , I may repeat what a Louisville banker
toldmo , yesterday. Ho said that the .Louis-
villa oafo deposit had never done a good
business and was constantly advertising
space. But since this period ot currency
I'amtno the institutions have not a box to

which took place at a local safe deposit. A

The banks hero have shut down on
the shipment of currency to the interior.
The scarcity is so pronounced that
agents are bidding n premium of $10
per $1,000 today. Institutions with largo

largely to the use of silver. Oni bank is
reported to have paid 1 pur cent for all the

Wlmt the Colorado IMItor Ha * o8ajr Upon
the Huljftct-
CmoAoo , Aug. 3. In nn Interview this
ovoulng Hon. Thorn * * M. Patterson , son of
Colorado , said : "Tonight's dlspatcho * glvo
the denial lo all charges made by the single
? old standard press to the affect that silver
Is an unpomilar money nnd that it lies hid
In the treasury at Washington without any
demand. United States Treasurer Morgan
has given out that no more silver certificates
will bo Issued by the Treasury department
nt present , as the limit prescribed by law
has been reached. What do moans Is that
there are .19,000,000 standard sliver dollars ,
and certificates representing them , in active
circulation doing the business of every sectli
tlon of the country. There is not a silver
dollar loft In tha treasury that can ho Issued -
sued , because there are silver certificates
already i&siioil and outstanding representing
every ono 0T Ihem. The Treasury depart
ment also says the reduction iu the number
of silver dollars in the treasury nas been
brought about by recent largo demands for
these dollars from the south to move Its
crops and pay oil its farm hands.
Ooinnncl for Silver Ccrtlllcutoi.
"Thoro is also , according to the same dis
patches , nu Immense demand in New York
for silver certificates of small denomina
tions , which tho-Trcasury department Is unable -
able to supply for the same reason that pre
vents it sending the silver dollars to the
south. These statements carry with them
two lessons , ono showing that people are Jn
nowisi ) nvcrso to silver money or its ropro-
sonsatlvc , the silver certificate , and that
owing to the process of withdrawal by timid
money owners there Is a dearth of currency
of small denominations , which might bo
readily removed if the Treasury department
would but coin into silver dollars some part
of the largo amouiit bf silver bullion now in
the treasury.
"Is It not a glaring shame that the south
should bo seeking In vain for silver dollars
to move .its crops , and the eastern cities
should ho suffering for small denominations
of silver certificates for their needed com
merce , which Is denied them , whllo there
are 1SU,000,000 of ounces of silver bullion in
the treasury which the department has a
perfect right to coin Into silver dollars and
put In circulation either in the form of cer
tificates or coin ? This extraordinary fact
should ho well considered by southern mem
bers of congress uoforu they succumb to the
demands of President Cleveland's reference
to anti-silver legislation.
"Tho same dispatches tell us that the
? 100,000,000 of the gold reserve has been
fully restored , with but llttlo danger of Its
being reduced below that amount in the
future ; also that 0,000,000 or
$8,000,000 of gold lately arrived hero
or Is on its vmy frum Europe
f It was the silver purchasing clause of the
Sherman net that drove gold from the south
n month ago , it must bo the operation of the
same law that brings it back. There is no
ground for cither claim. The gold goes and
comes under laws and through transactions
In which the Sherman law plays no appreci
able part.
If CnrlMlo Would Only I.lflton.
"If the Treasury department was not so
hostile to silver and determined that it
should bo given no chance until atter con
gress has acted upon the Sherman law ,
Secretary Carlisle would listen to the cry
that is coming up from the south for moro
silver dollars , and supply its wants by coinIng -
Ing the treasury bullion , which ho has a per
fect right to do. If ho would do this It is
confessed by the Treasury department it
would relieve the present demand for money
in the south , and which it is anxious to ob
tain. "

SALVINI'S Ol'HELLO.
One I'vrformiinoo Unit Koached thn Croat
Antor'H Illfli Stnndtird.
It is very solilom that I liavo attained
batisfuction with inydolf in that role ,
writes ) Sulvini in the Century. I uriy
say that in the thousands of tiinoa that I
have played it I can count on tlio finjjors
of ono hand tho.se when I have said to
myself : "I can do no hotter ; " and ono of
these times was when I guvo it at the
Tcatro del Florontini in Naploy. It
faeoired that evening as if un electric
current connected the artist with tlio
public. Every sensation of mine was
transfused into the audience. It re
sponded inbtuntanoouwly to my senti
ment , and manifested its perception of
my meanings by n low murmuring' , by a
sustained tremor. There WIIB no o -
easion for reflection , nor did the people
seek to discuss mo ; nil were at once in
unirion and accord. Actor , Moor and
audience felt the sumo impulse , were
moved ns one soul.
I cannot describe Uio cries of en
thusiasm which isiie.l ( from the throats
of these thousands of parsons in oxhultut
tion , or the delirious ) doinontttrutioiiB
which accompanied these Hconoa of love ,
jealousy and fury , and when the shock
ing catastrophe came , when the Moor ,
recognizing that lie lias been deceived ,
cuts short his days , so as not to htirvivo
the anguish of having uluin thu guiltless
Desdemona , a chill ran through every
vein , and as if the amlienco had been
stricken dumb , ton bOuomlH went by in
absolute nilonce. Then came a tempest
of crie.s and plaudit * and counties biiin-
monsus before the curtain. When the
demonstration vms unded the uudicncn
passed out amid an indistinct murmur of
voices , and collected in groupu f Jlvo ,
eight , or twelve everywhere in the
neighborhood of the theater ; then ,
united ns if by nmgnotiu force , they
came back into the theater , donmmlud
the relighting of the footlights , and in
sisted that 1 should como on the stage
'
'again , though I was half undronsod , to
receive a now ovation. This unparalleled
and spontaneous demonstration it ) ainong
the most choribhod memories of my
career , for it ranks among nuc.li as an
artist rarely obtains.

CHICAOO , Aujr. n. [ Special Telegram to
nn HKB.J Some of Iho inily managers have
jeon down on Midway plalsanco. They told
their experience at the board mooting this
afternoon. They were not pleasant experi
ences. In fact , the women went so far as to
say several harsh things concerning certain
features of the street nations , ami as they
told them they wept. If some of tha moro
determined can bring It about the council of
administration Will before
aitl IOUR receive peti
tions , In the names of wives and mothers rep
resented on the board , requesting that the
objectionable theater bo shut down forthwith -
with nnd not reopened whllo the fair con-
Unties.
The matter of the pl.ilsancc was Intro
duced , In nn unusually tame session by a call
,
for tbo report of a committee appointed two
weeks ago to send out cards to tbo women
311 the Midway plalsanco for the purpose of
Inviting thorn to the Woman's building.
They were to bo shown Its beauties by mem
bers j , of the board.
The committco had made no report and
had taken no action. The women needed no
report to sot them talking. Isabella Boochor
Hooker was the first to speak. She re
viewed oi'lolly the character of the famous
street and said in conclusion : "I think wo
liad bolter invlto that quarter , not In bulk ,
as has boon suggested , but very much in
detail. "
"Do you mean to say , " cried ono of the
woman , jumping to her foot as Mrs. Hooker
sat down , "that any woman has fallen so
low that the board of lady managers will
not hold out a helping hand to her ! "
Shocked thn
This brought Mrs. Darker to the platform.
I will take second place to no ono In mis
sionary work. " she said. "I wont down to
the 1'litsanco yesterday. Impelled by
ix sense of duty. [ Applause and
laughter. ] 1 never have boon so prlnvod
or shocked In my lifo ni nt the things I saw.
I shall most certainly oppose Inviting the
women who perform lit the theaters there
t moot socially the members of this board.
They am , many of them , not representatives
of foreign nations hut women of Chicago ,
chosen to act the disgusting parts. Can you
endure the thought that your sons and your
daughters should witness such spectacles 1
1 consider it our duty , r.ithor than to enter
tain those people , to enter a protest against
thorn and demand that the places wiiuro
they perform should bo closed.
"Appoint mo as a committee and I will go
and plead with those women at whatever
cost , but 1 strongly object to the members of
the board putting thimiselvi's on record ns
entertaining the women who so irrosilv vie
late the name of dancing on the Midway
plaisiince. "
Then Mrs. Barker sat down and cried as if
her heart would break. Airs , Felton has
tened to lend her moral support. "I want to
say , " BhosalU , "that 1 went with Mrs. Dar
ker into these'places , impelled like her by a
high sense of duty. Kcg.irdlng our experi
ences I can only add that I had no idea wo
vtoro living so nc.ir such domonsUMtlons.1'
Other . ilili ) ot the Ciino.
Mrs. Shoppard'a testimony was on the
other slilo of the question. "I don't know
where Mrs. Darker and Mrs. Felton wont , "
she said. "I have been on the plalsanco a
great deal , mid have never found anything
disgusting , but , on tlio contrary , much that
uns interesting and fascinating. "
Mrs. E.igle , too , stood up for the plaisanco.
"I tin.vo been most everywhere on the
plniswiiro , " she suid , "and I have not yet
been frightened away from anything. Perhaps -
haps I may be , bu so far as my observation
goes I do not coincide with the views ex
pressed by those \vhoio sense of duty took
them to the Oriental theaters. 1 should like
to ask whore they went. "
Mrs. Fi'lton hastened to Inform Mrs.
Eagle that the self-appolntcci committco of
investigation went to the Egyptian , Algerian ,
Persian and Turkish thoators. Mrs. Felton
coupled Uio infovmatlon with a resolution to
the effect that the council of administration
bo requested on the part of thu board , to in
vestigate the mutter.
Want Ilin I'lHoi'H Cloxml.
Mrs. Wise added an amendment requesting
the council of administration to
shut down the objectionable places.
As the discussion had bcim en
tirely formal , however , neither resolution
or amendment was recordoil , ami further
debate wna called off by a motion to
adjourn. Mrs. Charles Price was In the
chair , Mrs. Palmer luving left it shortly
alter the subject was introduced. The only
part she took in the discussion was to
laugh with the rest when Mrs. Darker al
luded to her "sense of duty. "
"I'm afraid wo'vo all oeen there , Mrs.
Darker , " sun saMd.
It is nol Improbable that a crusade will
now bo made by tlio director general on Mid
way plalsance , and if there aroanyoffenslvo
exhibitions there they will bo promptly
mopped. The council of administration has
authorized the director genur.il to Invcstl-
gate the common reports and take any nec
essary action ultliotit , furtlior notice.
There am one or two dances on thn Mid
way which have excited a good deal of com
ment. Thu dance in tlio U.iiro villagu Is per

have aroused the greatest objection.

THE WOLVES OF NEW YOHK
Matinee | O TISSUE GREAT DEMAND
New York Banks Paying Big Premiums to
Secure It.
SCHEMES THAT ARE BEING RESORTED TO
Bills freely traded in Plrlnp Check The
Schemes the market to Ship Greenbacks
to the Country Notes
from the national World.
Aug. n. The overshadowing
question this morning in financial circles
was the scarcity of currency. At many
banks it was admitted that cash payments
for large checks over the counters had been
suspended for some days, except in cases
where it was known that the actual cash
was necessary. In other words, the banks
used discrimination, and where it was
thought the demand for actual cash (currency)
was for the purpose of hoarding, the
bank insisted on a certified check being taken.
Some banks were experiencing
the very general collapse of the machinery of domestic exchange, the collection of
drafts on banks in other towns and cities
has been managed on an unusual scheme.
Usually when a New York bank depositor
turns in a check drawn to his order
on an out of town bank, the New York
bank remits to its own correspondent
in the same place for collection, or else sends
direct to the bank drawn upon. In both
cases, out of town banks have either delayed
remitting or have neglected exchange, and
thus charging up to the New York bank the
cost of exchange. The city banks have,
therefore, resorted in an unusually large
measure of late to direct collection through
the express companies, which make a specialty
(presenting drafts direct at distant
points! drawing out the money and shipping
It to New York. The cost of this transaction has for a long time been materially
below the rate charged for interior exchange.
Many curious incidents are related by the
bankers as to the working of such collection.
Some outside banks have taken pains to pay
such drafts in inconvenient currency,
notably standard silver dollars. One
case is mentioned of a country
bank on which a draft for several thousand
dollars was collected returning the money
in gold, 10 in standard silver dollars and
500 in subsidiary coin, almost entirely
dimes, with a liberal sprinkling of Canadian
pieces. It is quite probable, unless the
draft actually exhausted the little bank's
resources, that the country banker got the
better of its city creditors, for the loss on exchange
could hardly have exceeded the virtual loss on non-legal tender.
Some savings banks have decided today
to sell their government bonds, yet a well-informed minority
of them declare that it is unavoidable. A
former savings bank president, and now the
head of a trust company which has extensive
connections with savings banks said that the
sale of bonds would not be necessary. He
explained as follows: "The savings banks
are well prepared for the scarcity, and It is
not entirely unexpected. They have guarded
their reserves fully by the application of the
note rule, and previous similar experiences
go to show that the notices given will not be
availed of."
He explained by relating that when he
was president of a savings bank in 1873 the
notices given to him in that time called for
$600,000. "The notices were for sixty days.
At the end of that time only $400,000 were
taken, and adding: "I cannot now remember
the proportion, but I do recollect distinctly that returns were made daily. This shows,
of course, that hoarding is going on
to enormous amounts; and as evidence of
this, I may repeat what a Louisville banker
told me, yesterday. He said that the Louisville
savings bank had never done a good
business and was constantly advertising
space. But since this period of currency
panorama the institutions have not a box to
spare. Another amusing incident is that
which took place at a local safe deposit. A
man who had closed his account, $2,000,
at a savings bank, put it in a safe deposit,
paying for his little hole, $10:
Storped Shipping Currency.
The banks here have shut down on
the shipment of currency to the interior.
The scarcity is so pronounced that
agents are bidding a premium of $10
per $1,000 today. Institutions with large
payrolls have been compelled to resort
largely to the use of silver. One bank is
reported to have paid 1 percent for all the
currency received at a big retail establishment. The bank, requesting depositors to use
checks as much as possible, and where cash
is required are paying a large portion in
silver dollars. The supply of bills at the
subtreasury is growing limited and has
caused an effort on the part of the sub-
treasurer to receive checks from the banks
in payment for silver dollars and currency
for shipment and pay roll use. The sub-
treasury has collected its checks through
the clearing house. An order of the sub-
treasurer today that the banks must deposit
cash against the withdrawal of currency and
silver is one of the results of the conference
yesterday between Carlisle and Assistant
Subtreasurer Jordan.

Further Action by the New York Clearing
House Ventures of the Stock Market.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3. [Special Telegram to
The Herald.] At the Stock Exchange, money
on call was 5 1/2 @ 5. Time money and
mercantile paper was neglected. The sub
treasury was $27,000 debtor at the clearing
house today and paid the difference in gold,
The usual ten-day statement of the kinds
of money in which customs at this port are
made shows large increases in gold coin.
Payments for the past ten days show that
15 percent of the total was gold coin; 4,000
gold certificates, or over 17 percent, which
Is the largest proportion of gold coin in
years.
The loan committee of the clearing house
today issued $1,300,000 in certificates, making the total outstanding $31,650,000.
Inquiry for stocks in the loan crowd,
while not as brisk as on previous
days of the week, is still large.

Demand for bills to cover gold importations

in a great measure for the strength of the
market. Advance in the bank of England
discount rate also affected the market and
has a tendency to check the outflow of gold

thought the movement would let up for a
time, as a rise in actual selling rates reduces the profit materially.
Bullion on Money.
LONDON, Aug. S. A meeting was held at
the lord mayor's residence today to consider
the financial situation. There was a large
attendance of legislators and financiers.
Ambassador Bayard of the United States
being among the number,
Hon. A. J. Balfour made an address, in
which he said that a gold standard could
never satisfy the commercial wants, the
double standard alone would prevent dangerous oscillations in trade. He deprecated
isolated action by single governments, and
recommended on international agreement
fixing a ratio between gold and silver.
The meeting adopted a vote of thanks to
Balfour for his address,
Charles Fuller's Overdraft.
Boston, O., Aug. 8. The statement
Assignee Gormley, for Charles Foster and
Foster & Co., shows that Foster had over
drawn his personal account to the amount of
$130,000. Foster admits the overdraft, but
he has now more than $1,000,000 of his
own securities pledged for the endorsements
of the bank. He courts investigation.
PATENTS ON SILVER.
What the Colorado Herald has reported upon the Hudson's subject:
Colorado, Aug. 3. In an interview this morning, Hon. Thorn M. Patterson, son of Colorado, said: "Tonight's dispatches give the denial to all charges made by the single old standard press to the effect that silver is an unpopular money and that it lies hidden in the treasury at Washington without any demand. United States Treasurer Morgan has given out that no more silver certificates will be issued by the Treasury department at present, as the limit prescribed by law has been reached. What does this mean? There are 19,000,000 standard silver dollars, and certificates representing them, in active circulation doing the business of every section of the country. There is not a silver dollar left in the treasury that can be issued, because there are silver certificates already issued and outstanding representing every one of them. The Treasury department also says the reduction in the number of silver dollars in the treasury has been brought about by recent large demands for these dollars from the south to move its crops and pay off its farm hands.
Commission for Silver Certificates.
"There is also, according to the same dispatches, an immense demand in New York for silver certificates of small denominations, which the Treasury department is unable to supply for the same reason that prevents it sending the silver dollars to the south. These statements carry with them two lessons, one showing that people are in nowiseaverse to silver money or its representative, the silver certificate, and that, owing to the process of withdrawal by timid money owners, there is a dearth of currency of small denominations, which might be readily removed if the Treasury department would but coin into silver dollars some part of the large amount of silver bullion now in the treasury.
"Is it not a glaring shame that the south should be seeking in vain for silver dollars to move its crops, and the eastern cities should be suffering for small denominations of silver certificates for their needed commerce, which is denied them, while there are 19,000,000 ounces of silver bullion in the treasury which the department has a perfect right to coin into silver dollars and put in circulation either in the form of certificates or coin? This extraordinary fact should be well considered by southern members of congress before they succumb to the demands of President Cleveland's reference to anti-silver legislation.
"The same dispatches tell us that the 100,000,000 of the gold reserve has been fully restored, with but little danger of it being reduced below that amount in the future; also that 6,000,000 or $8,000,000 of gold lately arrived here or is on its way from Europe. It was the silver purchasing clause of the Sherman act that drove gold from the south last month, it must be the operation of the same law that brings it back. There is no ground for either claim. The gold goes and comes under laws and through transactions in which the Sherman law plays no appreciable part.
"If Carlisle would only listen.
"If the Treasury department was not so hostile to silver and determined that it should be given no chance until after congress has acted upon the Sherman law, Secretary Carlisle would listen to the cry that is coming up from the south for more silver dollars, and supply its wants by coining the treasury bullion, which he has a perfect right to do. If he would do this it is confessed by the Treasury department it would relieve the present demand for money in the south, and which it is anxious to obtain."
Will Sue the New York Trust.
Now YORK, Aug. 3. Henry Allen & Co., brokers, have announced that they intend to bring suit against the officials of the National Cordage and the other members of Cordagepool for whom they operated previous to the collapse of the Cordage company. Mr. Allen tonight said the Cordage pool for whom he operated still owed the firm some $100,000. He said the suit would speak for itself when it was filed. He would not say whether it would be of a civil or criminal character.
Several members of the cordage people seen tonight say that they saw nothing Allen & Co.
It was a failure on the part of members of the Cordage pool to come up with margins that caused Allen & Co. to suspend when Cordage dropped sixty points on the Stock exchange.
Lazurus Silverman Suspended.
CHICAGO, Aug. 5. Lazarus Silverman, the well-known private banker, has suspended. Liabilities, $500,000. Assets said to be greater. Cash on hand $60,000.

In the absence of Silverman, a representative of the house claimed that the embarrassment is only temporary. Deposits are estimated at $600,000, mostly by Hebrews' engaged in small business. Other liabilities are estimated at from $100,000 to $200,000. The assets have a nominal value of $2,000,000, of which $700,000 is real estate.
New York's Idle Thousands.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3. The World tomorrow will have a long article indicating that the metropolis will soon be overrun by an army of idle men. Statistics from fifty-seven trades in New York City go to show that in these trades alone over 110,000 men are out of work. This represents only a portion of the city's unemployed. It is stated that thousands are coming here from the west and that immigrants are tarrying in New York because of the stagnation in western states. It is also pointed out that the host of idlers is being daily increased by the shutting down of factories.
Apply to the Court for Relief.

Gold Stock Decreasing.
LONDON, Aug. 8. Stocks quiet, market steady. Americans were in better demand. The Bank of England advanced its rate of discount from 2 to 2½. The proportion of the banks' reserved liability has been reduced since last week from 43.83 percent to 40.11. During the week its stock of gold decreased by 10,000. Stocks closed dull and firm.
Right Moves for the Bank.
LONDON, Aug. 8. At the regular weekly meeting today of the directors of the Bank of England it was decided to advance the rate of discount to 3 percent.

Will U.S. Pay a Bill?
Colonial of the American National Bank of St. Louis A Good Shot for the Bank.
ST. PAUL, Aug. n. The American National Bank of this city will not open its doors for business tomorrow. This stop was rendered necessary by the steady drain upon its resources for several months, depositors having withdrawn $1,503,000 since January. The present financial stringency has made it impossible to realize ready money on sois in sufficient amounts to meet all withdrawals, and the directors today decided to close temporarily in order to get the affairs of the bank in better shape. The bank has a capital of $43,000,000, with a surplus of $8,000. The deposits amount to $2,400,000, and the bank holds bills aggregating $4,000,000. The acts are more than ample to meet all liabilities. The officers announce that they will pay all depositors with interest, so that no loss will be sustained.

Sheriff Bennett Announces that McGinn and Goodrich Are Back in Their Corner.
Messrs. McGinn and Goodrich are again the guests of Douglas county, having returned Wednesday afternoon from their visit to Council Bluffs, whither Sheriff Bennett so neatly escorted them Monday night for the good of their necks, they having agreed in consideration of the sheriff's solicitude in their behalf to return when called for without legal quibbles or anything of that kind.
The sheriff was rather doubtful as to the advisability of bringing back the men on Wednesday, and therefore requested a BEK reporter whom he found waiting to meet him and his charges not to say anything about their return, but yesterday afternoon, having sized up the situation, he decided that the public might as well know of their presence as not, as he considers that the excitement is about over.

WHEELS AGAINST WHEELS.
Disputes of the Bonnicker Club Take Summary Action Deplorable Differences.
The first fruits of the case of Two Wheels against Four Wheels, that has been agitating the members of the Gentlemen's Roadster club, were harvested at a meeting of the directors last evening when William Snyder was expelled from membership "for conduct liable to endanger the welfare of the club." A resolution preferring a number of charges had been presented at a previous meeting, but the sentiment of the directors, after hearing the evidence, was that they were not sustained, and that expulsion could only properly be effected under section 20 of the constitution, which provides for removal for the cause outlined therein.
Each side in this unfortunate controversy, that promises speedily to undo all that the club has accomplished in the past two years, maintains that Harriss is a majority of the members with it. It is probable that each and every member has a more or less well-defined preference in the matter of racing vehicles, it is a matter to any one who has canvassed the situation at all that there are but a few on either side who have taken the matter seriously to heart. These few, however, have been greatly wrought upon and some very bitter feeling has been stirred. The wrangle is even more to be regretted in view of the fact that the June 18 given under the auspices of the club is such an unusual success that the Commercial club is anxious to have another this year, and has already submitted a proposition to the Roadster club, guaranteeing $10,000 in purses for a race meeting to be held under the same auspices this fall. Those who have witnessed with pleasure the vast improvement in the past two years in the class of roadsters driven on the streets of Omaha can only deplore the unfortunate controversy, and hope that the wheels in the heads of a few individuals will not further imperil the success of the club by allowing the question of a few additional spokes to disrupt a prosperous organization, that has given its members much pleasure and accomplished such general good for the city as a whole.

ON DARKEST TENTH STREET.
Somewhat Complicated Men Stirred Up by the Police Riot Might.
Sergeant Whelan and the officers on Tenth street and Capitol avenue made a roundup of colored inmates last night and arrested William Patten, R. Robinson, Charles Long, Bertie Warner, and Payne.
Patten is charged with being drunk, creating a disturbance, and obstructing an officer. Robinson is recorded as disturbing the peace. Wagner and Bertie Warner's lover, and Mizzle is charged with threatening to do up Bertha.
Robinson is a porter on a Union Pacific chair car, and Mizzle says he tried to leave his monogram on her person with a sharp razor. He was arrested and Mizzle and Bertha had a scrap about it. Mizzle threatened to push Bertha across the dark river with a dangerous-looking knife and Long stopped hostilities by inscribing a gun play.

The Board of Public Works yesterday advertised for bids upon asphalt for paving in several districts. The bids will be opened in ten days. This is the third time the board has solicited bids upon this material. In each case heretofore they were rejected, as the members considered the prices excessive and denounced the bidding as a combine of the asphalt interests.
Hugh Murphy has completed the paving of Twelfth Street from Jones to Leavenworth with Colorado sandstone. He is also making preparations to commence work on the other districts that have been awarded to him just as soon as he receives the necessary orders from the Board of Public Works.

SALVINI'S "HELLO."
One Performance Unit Coached the Greatest Actress' Life Standared.
It is very solemn that I have attained satisfaction with Democles in that role, writes Salvini in the Century. I truly say that in the thousands of times that I have played it, I can count on the fingers of one hand those when I have said to myself: "I can do no better"; and one of these times was when I gave it at the Teatro del Fiorente in Naples. That evening faced as if an electric current connected the artist with the public. Every sensation of mine was transfused into the audience. It responded instantly to my sentiments, and manifested its perception of my meanings by a low murmuring, by a sustained tremor. There was no occasion for reflection, nor did the people seek to discuss me; all were at once in unison and accord. Actor, Moor, and audience felt the same impulse, were moved as one soul.
I cannot describe the cries of enthusiasm which issued from the throats of these thousands of persons in ecstasy, or the delirious domineering which accompanied these fevers of love, jealousy, and fury, and when the shocking catastrophe came, when the Moor, recognizing that he has been deceived, cuts short his days, so as not to leave alive the guiltless Desdemona, a chill ran through every vein, and as if the audience had been stricken dumb, the room went by in absolute silence. Then came a tempest of cries and plaudits and after the curtain. When the demonstration was ended, the audience passed out amid an indistinct murmur of voices, and collected in groups of eight, or twelve everywhere in the neighborhood of the theater; then, united as if by a magnetic force, they came back into the theater, demanded the relighting of the footlights, and insisted that I should come on the stage again, though I was half undressed, to receive a new ovation. This unparalleled and spontaneous demonstration ranks among the most cherished memories of my career, for it stands among few as an artist rarely obtains.
The Lonely Hometown Mural.
A devout woman from a fashionable suburb of Boston died recently, surrounded by family and friends, believing unto her death. She had made her preparations, and was daily awaiting her end with patient resignation. Her hours of suffering were cheered by the glimpses of the unseen world that came to her, and one day she called to her attendants, who were grouped around her in hourly anticipation of her decease: "Oh, that heavenly music! Don't you hear it?" Strongly impressed, in spite of themselves, by her fervor, they strained their ears to catch the harmonies of heaven, when a cyclonic burst of sound from a street organ, manipulated by an Italian across the street, swung full into the rollicking measures of "Tarantella," accompanied by high kicking. There was a moment's silence in the sickroom, then an involuntary burst of laughter, which the sick woman joined. From that moment a reaction set in, and today she has the prospect of years of life before her.

Lady Managers Shocked by Midway Plaisance that They Think Immoral.
CAIRO VILLAGE DANCE OBJECTIONABLE
Impelled by Their Sense of Duty Serious of the Mentions Concerning a Tour of the Foreign tenants with Alarming British.
CHICAGO, Aug. n. [Special Telegram to an Herald.] Some of the family managers have gone down on Midway Plaisance. They told their experience at the board meeting this afternoon. They were not pleasant experiences. In fact, the women went so far as to say several harsh things concerning certain features of the street nations, and as they told them they wept. If some of the more determined can bring it about the council of administration will before our receive petitions, in the names of wives and mothers represented on the board, requesting that the objectionable theater be shut down forthwith and not reopened while the fair continues.
The matter of the Plaisance was introduced, in an unusually tame session by a call for the report of a committee appointed two weeks ago to send out cards to the women at the Midway Plaisance for the purpose of inviting them to the Woman's Building. They were to be shown its beauties by members of the board.
The committee had made no report and had taken no action. The women needed no report to set them talking. Isabella Booth Hooker was the first to speak. She reviewed generally the character of the famous street and said in conclusion: "I think we had better invite that quarter, not in bulk, as has been suggested, but very much in detail."
"Do you mean to say," cried one of the women, jumping to her feet as Mrs. Hooker sat down, "that any woman has fallen so low that the board of lady managers will not hold out a helping hand to her!" Shocked by this, Mrs. Barker took to the platform. "I will take second place to no one in missionary work," she said. "I went down to the Plaisance yesterday. Impelled by a sense of duty, I never have been so provoked or shocked in my life at the things I saw. I shall most certainly oppose inviting the women who perform at the theaters there to meet socially the members of this board. They are, many of them, not representatives of foreign nations but women of Chicago, chosen to act the disgusting parts. Can you endure the thought that your sons and your daughters should witness such spectacles? I consider it our duty, rather than to entertain those people, to enter a protest against them and demand that the places where they perform should be closed.
"Appoint me as a committee and I will go and plead with those women at whatever cost, but I strongly object to the members of the board putting themselves on record as entertaining the women who so impiously violate the name of dancing on the Midway Plaisance." Then Mrs. Barker sat down and cried as if her heart would break. Mrs. Felton, having lent her moral support. "I want to say," shouted Mrs. Brooks, "that I went with Mrs. Barker into these places, impelled like her by a high sense of duty. Regarding our experiences, I can only add that I had no idea we were living so near such demonstrations."
Other Side of the Coin.
Mrs. Shoppard's testimony was on the other side of the question. "I don't know where Mrs. Barker and Mrs. Felton went," she said, "I have been on the Plaisance a great deal, and have never found anything disgusting, but, on the contrary, much that is interesting and fascinating."
Mrs. Eagle, too, stood up for the Plaisance. "I have been most everywhere on the Plaisance," she said, "and I have not yet been frightened away from anything. Perhaps I may be, but so far as my observation goes, I do not coincide with the views expressed by those whose sense of duty took them to the Oriental theaters. I should like to ask where they went."
Mrs. Felton hastened to inform Mrs. Eagle that the self-appointed committee of investigation went to the Egyptian, Algerian, Persian, and Turkish theaters. Mrs. Felton coupled the information with a resolution to the effect that the council of administration be requested on the part of the board, to investigate the matter.
Want the Plaisance Closed.
Mrs. Wise added an amendment requesting the council of administration to shut down the objectionable places.
As the discussion had been entirely formal, however, neither resolution nor amendment was recorded, and further debate was called off by a motion to adjourn. Mrs. Charles Price was in the chair, Mrs. Palmer having left it shortly after the subject was introduced. The only part she took in the discussion was to laugh with the rest when Mrs. Barker alluded to her "sense of duty." "I'm afraid we've all been there," Mrs. Barker said.
It is not improbable that a crusade will now be made by the director general on Midway Plaisance, and if there are any offensive exhibitions there they will be promptly mopped. The council of administration has authorized the director general to investigate the common reports and take any necessary action without further notice.
There are one or two dances on the Midway which have excited a good deal of comment. The dance in the Cairo village is permitted by contract, but the night features have aroused the greatest objection.

DIRECTIONS IN MILLING.
"Hoarseln; was had before Judge Scott on Wednesday, on a motion made by Brockonfield & Brockonfield, attorneys for Sloan, Johnson & Co., to dissolve the attachments issued against their debts in favor of the Dayton Spice Mills company, the Mills County National bank and the Columbus Pickle company, nearly all of said attachments having issued on the affidavit of the plaintiffs that there was evidence of fraud on the part of the defendants.
Yesterday morning, Judge Scott rendered a decision dissolving the attachments, stating in brief that bankruptcy or insolvency does not imply an attempt to defraud and that he had never yet investigated a case where he found less ground for belief in fraudulent intention. The decision also applies to the attachments issued against William Hloao et al.

BURGLAR TAYLOR'S TROUBLES -THICKEN
Ite Iln * Ilcen Drawing a reunion for Tlirco
V nr * Which Wn * 1'nlimlily Uhtnlneil
\ > r frnnil Will Ho Turned
Over to Uncle bain.
C. Taylor , who was arrested Wednes
day | night whllo trying to rob a house on
Pierce street , was given a preliminary hear
ing yesterday morning in pollco court , nnd
was identified by the girl who owned the
stolen property as the guilty party. Ho
was bound over to the grand Jury , nnd as ho
was unable to furnish a bond of 1300 ho was
sent to the county Jail for safe keeping. The
developments made yesterday Indicate that
ho Is ono of the biggest all-around rascals
that has over sot foot Inside the Pottawat-
tamlo county Jitll. and the chances are that
he will bo given a chance to exhibit his paces
in the United States court for defrauding
the government.
At soon as Trtj-lor showed up at the court
homo yesterday ho was recognized by
Deputy Sheriff O'Brien as a man who was
sent to the penitentiary about seven years
ago for u year's confinement for burglary.
Ho worked his way Into the Kiel hotel ono
night , broke into a room , and was Just let
ting the occup.uit'i trunk down out of the
window when ho was discovered by the
proprietor and landed In Jail , His name
appears on the county Jail record no less
than eight times , once for burglary , once for
highway robbery , and the other six times
for larceny. ,
Ho aroused Sheriff Haron's suspicions
yesterday by his evident anxiety to got
possession of certain papers that were
among his effects. Ho asked for thorn three
times within a low minutes , and Hazen de
cided that if they were so valuable to Tay
lor they might bo equally valuable to him.
Air. Taylor Drinvn n lVn lon.
Ho accordingly wont through thorn nnd
found evidences that Taylor had bcon draw
ing a pension for the la t two or three years
on the strength of his enlistment as private
in company II , Thirty-ninth regiment of
Missouri volunteers. The papers indicate
that ho pretended to have lost his original I
proofs of honorable discharge , and managed I
to get a duplicate from the government. Ho
was granted a pension of $1'J per month on
account of catarrh in the head , deafness in
bo tli cars and rheumatism , and this pension
ho has been drawing ever slnco Juno 127 1
Ib'JO. The proof of discharge states that ho
enlisted September 1 , 1864 , for a term of ono 3I 3I I
year , at the ago of 18 years , which would I
make him 47 years of age now.
Ho gave Ills age as 30 to Sheriff Hazen
yesterday , and his appearance does not
make him out a day older. The ages ho has
given at the times of his various imprison 1t
ments ranged nil the way from ! ! 5 to 89 , but
if the ago ho gave yesterday was the correct
ono ho must have enlisted In the army at the
mature ago of 11 years. The most plausible
theory is that ho has gotten possession of
the lupcrs of some man who died , and lias
gone on drawing his pension. That ho has
actually been drawing it Is shown by the
fact that in his pocketbook is the voucher
for the pension which came duo July 4 , 1BU3 ,
and it is still unpaid.
I1U 1'iobiiblo Future Adclrcm.
A letter Is also among his effects , from J.
S. Swopc , I'JO'J Franklin avenue , Houston ,
Tex. , in which the latter calls him brother
nnd beseeches to meet him in heaven. The
papers will most likely bo turned ever to the
United States authorities today , nnd there
Is a strong probability that Mr. Swopo will
bo moro apt to llnd his dear brother in Fort
Madison than in heaven.

Ocean Current ! .
In order to add to the exact knowl
edge of ocean currents there are forms [
which are called "bottle papers. " ) 18n
these little papers an invitation , in six
languages , is extended to the masters of
vessels to enter occasionally upon the
proper lines of the form the name of the
vessel and her cantaln , the date and the
ship's position , and then to seal belie
paper in a battle and cast it into the
sra. In other lines of this form a re
quest is made , in the same languages ,
that the finder will write clearly the
exact place where and date when any
bottle was picked up and by whom , anil
then forward it tD the hydrographlo
olllco in Washington or to any of our
consulates abroad. Thcso bottles , of
cotinio , drift in the ocean currents.
Some are picked up soon after they are
thrown ovorbaard others drift
, for moro
than a year bofoi'o being recovered.
They furnish valuable records for moro
correctly fixing the currents already <
known.
ArtemnsVnr.l iiml Murk TwHln.
Artomus Ward had a favorite trick
that ho lovetHo indulge in , and out of
which ho appeared to got a good dual of
original fun , says the Californian. This
was the disbursing of a rigmarole lisof
nonsense in a bolomn and impressive
manner , as though ho was saying some
thing of unusual weight and Importance.
It was a game of mystification in which
ho greatly delighted. At a dinner
given him by leading Comstockers at
the International hotel , Ward played
his trick on Mark Twain ull
, present
being lot into the secret beforehand.
Ho began an absurd exposition of hoof
word genius , upon the conclusion of
which the embarrassed Murk was .
obliged to acknowledge his inability to
comprehend the speaker.
"Indeed ! " exclaimed Artomus. and for
half a minute ho gazed at Murk with a
face in which shade
u of impatience
begun to mingle with astonishment and
compulsion. Then , heaving a sigh , ho
euid ; "Well , perhuns I was not sulll- ,
clontly explicit. What I wished to say
was simply that genius Is a sort of illu
minating quality of ( JJifc mind Inherent
in these of conntttiit/iJAally / inflammable
natures , and whoso conceptions are not
of that ambiguous-nnd disputable kind
which may bo Pfil'l-rr ' = ' '
. . "Hold on , ArtoYrtfls , " interrupted
Mark. "It is usolewi < for you to repeat
your definition. Tho. wlno or the brandy
or the whisky or some other thlnR has
pone to my head. )1VI1 ) It to mo some
other time , or , bettor still , write it down
for mo and I'll study it at my leisure. "
"Ooodl" cried Artimns , his face beam
ing with pleasure. iWll give it to you
tomorrow in black iand white. I have
been much misunderstood in this matter -
tor , and it'is Important that I should
pot myself right. You see that to the eye
of a person of a warm and inllamniablo
nature , and in whoso self-luminous mind
ideas arise that are by no means con
fined to the material which conception
furnishes , but may bo "
"For God's sakol" crlod'Mark , "If you
go at that again you'll drive mo mad. "
The general burst of laughter which
followed this fooling and half'angry pro
test made it plain to Mark that Avtomus
had been sot to work on him with malice
aforethought , and that all present were
in the plot nnd had been amusing them
selves at his expense.
NEWS THROUGH A TELEPHONE.
Mr. Goilharil of '
lluiln-l'rith Telli of n
Unique Hubstltnto lor n Nenspnper.
B. von Harksinjr , Eugene Goddurd ,
nnd iStophcn Godhnrd of Budu-Posth ,
Hungary , were at the Ooatcs house last
evening and loft this morning on un
early train for Colorado , says the Kansas
City Star. Mr. Stephen Godhard told
of a novel way recently introduced in
Budu-Posth of
dissominitting the news
of the day. The Telephonic Guzotto
has been established there. It is not
printed on a perfecting press , in fact , is
not printed at all. The editor of the
Telephonic Gazette furnishes all the
news of the day to his subscribers by
telephone at a rate equivalent to sixty
.cents a month. The subscribers are
given a telephone of a special pattern ,
for which they pay $0. It receives but
does not transmit Bounds , excepting
from the central olllco , which is the
oilico of the Telephonic Gazette.
The telephonic instrument occupies a
space of about live inches square and
has two ear pieces , so that two persons
can listen to the sounds on the wire at
onco. At 0 o'clock in the morning the
first edition of the Gazette is announced
by the simultaneous ringing of a boll in
the houses of the subscribers nnd the
business man and his wife listen to the
stories , of the events of the night. The
editor is talking to hundreds of other
subscribers at the same time and ho has
the instrument so arranged that inquis
itive housewives must content them
selves with his precise statement of the
news , and not ask whether the follow
was married or not : He hasn't time ,
this telephonic editbr.i , to answer all the
questions women might ask , or go into
all the details of the news. Ho states it
in a laconic way. ,
The second edition appears at 10
o'clock , when the foreign news comes
over the wire'in a , condensed form for
twenty minutes or less , according to the
amount of foreign news on hand. At 11
o'clock the story of the meeting of Par
liament is told , along with divers items
oi a local and political nature. The
price of stocks is given , and the wise
broker may have time to hustle out and
get "long" or "short1' on certain securi
ties in time to1'save his bank account.
At 12 o'clock there'.is , no edition. The
editor of-thb Tolopno'nic Gazette , unlike
other editors , euts"and is blessed with
that desire aboullliJ clock. , At 2 o'clock
ho begins again ) though , and gives a
concise statement of the debates in Par
liament , telling just what members
have been knocLad down and often giv
ing the story of the resignation of the
ministry , reported so often in Hungary
that it sticks on the wires.
-At 3 o'clock the editor in the central
ofllco opens up on local news again. He
tolls about fires , riots , and other happen
ings of the day in Buda-Pesth. Ho gives
his subscribers a chance to rest then
until 6 o'clock , when he gives literary
news and society news , never giving
more than five words to the description
of any ono woman's gown. Sometimes
ho repeats the latest poem at 0 o'clock.
This 0 o'clock edition is popular with the
women , and the editor speaks in a soft
voice. The 7 o'clock editon is the last.
It gives the reports of concerts and plays
in progress.

WHAT EVERY MAN IS WORTH.
The Chemlcnl Compound * of nn Average
Voter Are Vnlued at 818,300.
An interesting exhibit at the National
museum shows the physical ingredients
which go to muko up the average man ,
weighing 154 pounds , says the American
Analyist. A largo glass jar holds the
ninety-six pounds of water which his body
contains. ' In other
receptacles are three
pounds of white of egg , a Uttlo loss than
ten pounds of pure glue without which :
it would bo impossible to keep body and

carbonate of lime , 3 ounces of sugar and
starch 7 of fluoride idn
, ounces of calcium ,
0 ounces of of

little 1i 1 ordinary table salt. Divided up
into i his primary chemical elements the
same man is found to contain 07 pounds
of oxygen enough to take up , under
tS ordinary atmospheric pressure , the
space of a room 10 feel long , 10 foot
wide nnd 10 feet high. His body also
holds 16 pounds of hydrogen , which , un
do r the Bunio conditions , would occupy
somewhat more than two such rooms as
that described. To thcso must bo added
3 pounds and 13 ounces of nitrogen. The
carbon in the corpus of the individual
referred to is represented by a cubic
foot of coal. It ought to bo a diamond
of the sumq size , because the stone is

THE SOCIAL DEBUT OF HELEN GOULD

Among the many social debuts that
will take plnco In Now York during the
coming winter the ono that will exclto
the most Interest is that of Helen M.
Gould , only daughter of the great
Inancier and his favorite among all his
children. "
The entrance into society of this young
woman is likely to bo accompanied by
lot a little stir and comment. Miss
3ould has passed the ago when young
women are as a rule Introduced to the
social world in a formal way. She is no
longer a young girl in the strict sense of
the word , for in the matter of years nho
Is very fairly into the twenties and is
ijravo and womanly beyond her years.
She will represent $15,000,000 or moro
jf her own , all good hard cash , or , what
Is as good , railroad securities whoso
tendency is ever upward , and property
that is always increasing in value. She
owns the splendid Fifth avenue resi
dence her father so long occupied , and
the great mansion at
Irvington-on-tho-
Hudson , wllero the Gould family spent
the summer. Thcso great properties
are the exclusive possession of Miss
Gould , and they are gorgeously and
completely furnished throughout. To-
irothor they are worth quite * 1GOO,000.
So , whllo Jay Gould in his lifetime
had many and fierce criticsand although
that sometimes nebulous element known
as the best society rather looked down
on' the famous money maker , there is
no likelihood that his daughter will bo
cavilled at unless it bo by ambitious
matrons with young daughters of their
own in the market for disposal to the
highest legitimate biddor.
Miss Helen Gould is not strikingly
handsome , but she is very sweet and
womanly in her manner. She need not
fear that she will become u , languishing
walltlowor in the ball and reception
rooms that she will figure in during the
social season now drawing near. Her
recommendations to favor uro too many
and too weighty.
But as for fortune hunters , they may
as well keep their distance. Along with
her mother's amiability and sweetness
of character she has much of her father's
keenness and strong common sense.
Hence , while she will bt3 a/buu worth
the plucking , the man who would perform -
form that feat must look well to him
self , for ho will have no gushing damsel
to deal with.
Few young women who figure or rca
soon to liguro in New York's social whirl
are so little known as Is Helen Gould.
Even the leaders in the circles where
she is to otitor do not know the young
woman well. They know , to bo sure ,
that she is the daughter of the late Jay
Gould , that she is said to bo a good and
charming girl and that she is enor
mously rich. Their fund of information
runs out at this point , and they are wait
ing with some curiosity to add to it by
moans of personal observation.
The social debut of Miss Gould has
bcon delayed considerably beyond the
time that it would have bcon made by
the deaths of her father and mother.
There was never a daughter moro devoted -
voted to her mother than was Helen
Gould to hors during the latter's de
clining years. The two were very like
in tomparamont , and their constant com
panionship made the daughter tho'coun
terpart of her mother in disposition and
manners a result that was good for the
young girl , for while the wife of Jay
Gould never figured in society , but
always shrank from so doing , she was
none the less a superior woman in many
ways.
Tbo death pf this mother throw the
young girl upon her own resources. She
could not enter into society , and , indeed ,
had no wish to do so. Instead she de
voted herself to her father , who had become -
como partly an invalid , and up to the
time of his death she was his mainstay
and his solace in his hours of suffering
and sickness.
And < o it is that Miss Gould will enter
nto society a comparative stranger to
ts members.
These who know Ilolon Gould give evi
dence that she is attractive both in ap-
) earanco and manners. Rather retiring
ind unassuming , she still has that power
, o charm that marks some young women
of moro than ordinarily qufot demeanor.
3ho is not what would bo called a beau-
, iful woman , but she is a handsome ono
.akon from either a man's or a woman's
point of view.
Of medium height , Miss Gould is a
jrunotte , but not a very pronounced ono.
[ lor hair is dark , but not of the inky ,
ulackncss that marked her father's hair
and beard , and her eyes are of the undu-
Inablo shade that is neither dark nor )
brqwn , but that scorns to change and
alternate. Her features are strong with-
3Ut the hard lines that were worn into ;
lior father's face , and they are further
softened , by the sweeter and moro
amiable traits that came to her from her
mother not strictly beautiful , as has
boon Buid , but Htill a woman whoso face
would command moro than a passing l {
glance no mutter where seen. She is of
graceful figure and the walk of ono used
to pedestrian exercise. Such is the
greatest heiress in America as she is
con today.
Miss Gould's name has rarely , if ovo1
appeared in these pupors that assume to
borvq up the small boor of New York so
ciety to those who like that bert IOof
thing. Nor do you often bee it in the
greut dailies. But when you do it is al
ways connected with some uct of boncvo-
lenco that has been performed so quietly
that oven the keon-eyed reporter has
stumbled over it by sheer accident.
Work among the city poor wus Miss
Gould's hobby before her purentb died ,
mid slnco their deuth she has hud moro
time and more means to continue the
worK.
Jay Gould himself never posed as a
benevolent man or a philanthropist. Ho
used to sny it wus of no use that hu
would Iw merely assailed , and would not
have his motives questioned. That he
was in a way right was shown when
about a year before his death there wus
a mooting held in his house on Fifth ave
nue to further church work in Now
York. Ho did not originate the idea.
The ministers asked permission to moot
lu his houso. Ho gave the permission ,
and ho gave in addition his personal
check for $10,000 to help the work in
hand , und in addition chocks for binuller
amounts in the numo of other members
of Ids family. For this Gould wus scari
fied by the press , religious and koculitr ,
whlco pronounced him un ostentatious
hypocrite and several other things be
sides. It wua his first and last experi
ment of the kind , According to the
New York Huruld it wus his daughter
who hud brought the affair about , hop
ing for u very different verdict on her
father' * action. After this affair she
ucted as his ulmonor und his numo never
figured in her workulthough his check
book wus practically at her command.
Mistf Gould's method of doing good IB
f practical. ! She does not send a check to
this or that charity and then rest In
j swrot content , her duly dono. Her
method is more like the parish visiting
system that great ladies In England
sometimes affect as a fad rather than
for a hotter reason , .lay Gould nnd Ma
family were attendants at the church of
Dr. John U , Paxton , who prcnchos to
more wealth , perhaps , than any other
pastor In New York. Misa Gould whei
in Now York always identifies horsel
with all the mission nnd bonuvolenl
organizations connected with this
church nnd has always stood a9 ready
to do real work as to contribute In
money. She hni acted us a Sunday
school teacher and , being a sweet-
tempered young woman , was a success.
As a volunteer parish worker she has
been Invaluable , fur whllo being gen
erous her strong common souse kupt her
from being humbugged by chronic
paupers.
Her favorite homo is her late father's
summer house at Irvington , upon which
htvspeul a fortune , ami to good advan
tage. The house remains her property
and Miss Gould spends muc h of the
summer there , to the great satisfaction
of the poor of the neighborhood.
Much was written during Jay
'
Gould's lifetime of the splendid hot
houses connected with his Irvington
homo , in which almost every known
kiud of rare plants and ( lowers Is culti
vated regardless of cost. It is said that
the famous financier used to smile grimly
when complimented upon his skill and
tnsto In lloriculturo. As a matter of
fact the multi-millionaire had very little
to do with his conservatories save to foot
the bills. He liked llowers in a negative
sort of way , as ho liked most of the
things that his favorite did , but he left
the management of the llowors to his
daughter and the expert llorlculturist
whom he employed.
Miss Gould has always bcon moro
quiet in her tastes than most young
women of largo means. It is and has
boon with them the fad to go in for
sports ) and games of almost all sorts.
Yachting nnd coaching onmo first and
loss important methods of enjoyment
follow in their order. Miss Gould has
not , so far as is known , displayed pro-
llcionoy in any of these linos. She is a
famous pedestrian nnd a good horse
woman. Her retired lifo has made of
nor somewhat of a student and she is a
skillful musician. If she ever had liter
ary tendencies , as at ono time her father
had , she lias carefully concealed the
fact. She is practically mistress of her
vast fortune , but it is not likely to sillier

For some reason it has always boon
the general belief among the people
who live in the mountains in York ,
Lancaster and other counties in Penn
sylvania , where copperhead snakes
abound , that this venomous snake will
not bite children , and there are numer
ous wonderful stories told , especially in
the Wish mountains , about the copper
head's leniency toward children. Out
side of the mountaineers thcso stories
have ncvor received credence , but a
well known family living on the York
county side of the Susquehanna is
ready to accept them hereafter. The
family consists of Jacob Loan , his
wife and two children , the youngest
a little girl 3 years old. Copperheads
are always uncomfortably plentiful in
that locality , says the Harrisb'urg Tele
graph , but this season they have been
moro numerous than usual. The haying
and harvest hands have killed from
throe to ten a day during the past week |
on the Loan farm.
Ono day last week the little 3-year-old
was playing in the front yard , and her
mother noticed her sitting in the grass
near the front gate. Every now and
then she would bo heard laugning glee
fully , and Mrs. Loan finally walked out "
to sco what was amusing the child so
much. When the little girl saw her
mother coming she called out to her :
"Como , mamma , and see the liyo carpet -
pot rags ! "
At the same time she held up to her
mother a snake , which she grasped in
the middle of the body , and which
twisted and squirmed in the air. Mrs.
Loan saw at once that it was a copper
head. Although she was almost swoon
ing with terror the child's mother acted
with rare presence of mind. It occurred
to her that if she showed her alarm by
crying out to the child the latter would
undoubtedly become frightened , and the
change that would naturally follow in
her handling or sudden dropping of the
snake might anger the copperhead and
cause it to bito. With a great effort ,
Mrs. Loan said , qaietly and coaxingly :
"Fetch it to mamma , dear. Don't
hurt it. "
"But there's two of 'em , mamma , " re
plied the Uttlo girl. "I'll fetch 'em '
both. "
She reached down and picked up an-

The children of the Industrial School connected with Dover's mission will give a literary entertainment at the hall on Drynut Street tomorrow afternoon. Visitors are cordially invited.
The democrats of the city held caucuses last evening in all the wards of the city and chose candidates to be voted on at the precincts to be held tomorrow evening for delegates to the county convention.
William Chamberlain and John Allen, who stole a pair of shoes from Morris's shoe store Wednesday evening, were tried in police court yesterday morning and sentenced to fifteen days each in the county jail.
John Hale took a change of venue from Justice Vien to Justice Fox yesterday and had a trial on the charge of stealing a lot of lumber from Frank Porcupine. There proved to be nothing wrong in the case and the defendant was discharged.
Chief Scanlan received a letter from Sears Bros yesterday stating that they could use forty more men than they now have, and asking him to spread the news among the idle men that have been causing the police and railroad men so much trouble of late. There were twenty-five deaths reported during last month. Of this number twenty were under ten years of age and sixteen were under one year. Thirteen were the result of cholera infantum. There were twenty-five cases of contagious diseases reported, of which twenty were measles and the remainder scarlet fever.
Mr. and Mrs. L. Kirscht celebrated the thirty-seventh anniversary of their marriage last evening at their home on Park Avenue by entertaining a large party of their friends. The Masonic chorale society, of which Mr. Kirscht is an honored member, met down town and proceeded to the house, where they had a delightful serenade.
There has been a great deal of complaint of late over the condition of the Indian Creek bridge on Bryant Street. The floor has been patched again and again, until but little of the original floor remains and it is so far below the surface of the patches that its discovery would invariably result in a physical shock to the person arriving across. Yesterday Street Supervisor Avery got out his force, and, in compliance with the requests that have been raining in on him, set them at work putting in a new floor. The improvement will be appreciated by all who have occasion to cross the bridge.
A lady was walking alone on Seventh Street near the corner of Fifth Avenue about 8 o'clock last evening when she was met by a man, who made a beastly exhibition of himself. The police were put on the track of the villain, and there is but little doubt that he will be apprehended.
The description which was furnished the police almost exactly fits the fellow who made a practice of doing the same sort of thing several months ago. It has been suggested that he be tried for insanity, as the courts do not seem to be able to deal with offenses of this nature in the manner that is merited by the offense.
"Tony" Gorspachor, who has recently purchased "The Columbia" from Fred Gebo, has made arrangements to entertain his friends and the public Saturday night. The program will include an elegant spread. Mr. Gorspachor has spent the greater part of his life in Council Bluffs and he invites both friends and enemies (if he has any enemies) to call on him Saturday evening.

OHIO (for the health of Health).
A little matter came to light yesterday which might be properly investigated by the city physician and the Board of Health.
Down in the southern part of the city, near the corner of Fourteenth Street and Twenty-first Avenue, there is a lot of pasture land which is utilized both by proprietors of dairies and by farmers who take care of the cows of private individuals. Indian Creek runs down Fourteenth Street until it is not more than three or four blocks above this point that the main outlet of the city sewer system pours into it all day long a torrent of foul matter. It is stated that about all the water the cows which are pastured there drink is from the polluted waters of the creek. The matter has been referred to the city physician and a report from him will be awaited with interest by all who are interested in preserving the health of the city.

C. Taylor, who was arrested Wednesday night while trying to rob a house on Pierce Street, was given a preliminary hearing yesterday morning in police court, and was identified by the girl who owned the stolen property as the guilty party. He was bound over to the grand jury, and as he was unable to furnish a bond of $1300 he was sent to the county jail for safekeeping. The developments made yesterday indicate that he is one of the biggest all-around rascals that has ever set foot inside the Pottawattamie County Jail, and the chances are that he will be given a chance to exhibit his paces in the United States court for defrauding the government.
As soon as Taylor showed up at the court yesterday he was recognized by Deputy Sheriff O'Brien as a man who was sent to the penitentiary about seven years ago for a year's confinement for burglary. He worked his way into the Kiel Hotel one night, broke into a room, and was just letting the occupant's trunk down out of the window when he was discovered by the proprietor and landed in jail. His name appears on the county jail record no less than eight times, once for burglary, once for highway robbery, and the other six times for larceny.
He aroused Sheriff Hazen's suspicions yesterday by his evident anxiety to get possession of certain papers that were among his effects. He asked for them three times within a low minutes, and Hazen decided that if they were so valuable to Taylor they might be equally valuable to him. Mr. Taylor drew a pension for the last two or three years on the strength of his enlistment as private in company H, Thirty-ninth regiment of Missouri volunteers. The papers indicate that he pretended to have lost his original proofs of honorable discharge, and managed to get a duplicate from the government. He was granted a pension of $15 per month on account of catarrh in the head, deafness in the ears and rheumatism, and this pension he has been drawing ever since June 1870. The proof of discharge states that he enlisted September 1, 1864, for a term of one year, at the age of 18 years, which would make him 47 years of age now.
He gave his age as 30 to Sheriff Hazen yesterday, and his appearance does not make him out a day older. The ages he has given at the times of his various imprisonments ranged all the way from 15 to 35, but if the age he gave yesterday was the correct one he must have enlisted in the army at the mature age of 11 years. The most plausible theory is that he has gotten possession of the papers of some man who died, and has gone on drawing his pension. That he has actually been drawing it is shown by the fact that in his pocketbook is the voucher for the pension which came due July 4, 1873, and it is still unpaid.
A letter is also among his effects, from J. S. Swope, 900 Franklin avenue, Houston, Tex., in which the latter calls him brother and beseeches to meet him in heaven. The papers will most likely be turned over to the United States authorities today, and there is a strong probability that Mr. Swope will be more apt to find his dear brother in Fort Madison than in heaven.

HUNGRY JIM OF KANSAS CITY.
"I'm Hungry Jim of Kansas City; I'm 10 years old and never worked a day in my life. Just let me loose now, and got me some grub," was the way a youth seven feet tall and six inches thin introduced himself yesterday at the residence of Mrs. Smith Saunders, 605 Eighth avenue. As hospitality he drew an ugly-looking knife out of his pocket and, striking an attitude that was anything but reassuring to the frightened woman that was addressed, prepared to carve anyone who disobeyed his mandate. The lady succeeded in getting away from him and ran to one of the neighboring houses for protection, whereupon Hungry Jim sloped. The police were notified, and Officer Murphy went to the Union Pacific yards looking for the young man, whom he finally found all playing three-card monte with himself under a freight car. He gave his name as Joe Thomas. He will come up before Judge McGee this morning for a trial for vagrancy.

A rubella in Church.
The Salvation Army has been responsible for introducing a good many surprising novelties into religious worship, but then there is some doubt as to whether they have ever done anything that formed a more pleasing diversion for audiences than on Wednesday evening when Captain Whitehouse was conducting the services at the barracks, on his way to his new charge in Sioux City. A special effort was made by Mr. Whitehouse to collect some money for the use of the local branch of the army, but as times were hard he did not meet with the best of success.
During his talk he incidentally promised that on one occasion in his mother city he had offered to stand on his head if the audience would come up to the high water mark in their offerings.
"I'll give you a dollar if you'll stand on your head," said a voice in the back part of the room.
All right, brother, replied Whitchurch, "let's see the color of your money and I'll do my part." The brother in question ponied up his money and, as soon as Whitchurch saw that he meant business, down went his head and up went his heels, and the audience were treated to such a beautiful and striking piece of specialty work as they had never seen before in the pulpit. The doorman changed hands, the audience sang, "Dare to Be a Daniel; Dare to Stand Alone," and the meeting went on as though nothing unusual had happened.

JUNK: ON, MINSTER.
Follows End with Arresting Him for Forgery.
James Bishop was arrested yesterday afternoon by Officers Fowler and Whit by having a good social time in one of the houses on Pierce street. Bishop was formerly a hack driver for William Lewis, and has a police record, having obtained a few dollars some time ago by means of false representations, Jack O'Hearn being his victim. A day or two ago a telegram was received at police headquarters asking that he be arrested, as he was wanted in Sioux City to answer to the charge of horse stealing. While walking along the street the two officers above named saw Hans Temp, Bishop's father-in-law, making a general nuisance of himself and ran him in. Suspecting that Bishop was not far away, the officers made a tour of the neighboring houses and found him in one of them. He was taken to the city Jail and Sheriff D. P. Magnor of Sioux City was notified of the catch, He answered saying he would arrive in the city on the evening train to take his man into custody.

Property Owners of Manawa Want to Get Out of the Town Limits.
A lot of the property owners of Manawa have been laying their plans for some time past to get outside of the limits of the incorporated town of Manawa, and the outcome of their plans, so far as the present is concerned, was the filing of a petition in the district court. The persons and companies interested in the deal are the following: James A. Christman, George W. Hobards, W. Watkins, Lake Manawa Land company, Emerson & Pierce, A.A. Brown, the Manhattan Beach Improvement company, J.W. Squire, William Wray, and William H. Beck. They claim in their petition that they represent the majority of all the territory included within the corporate limits. The remoteness of their land from the village improvements, and the fact that they are in no way touched by being inside the town, are alleged as reasons why their petition should be granted.

Protection for the Fourth.
Mayor Lawrence has yielded at last to howls that have been going up from the Fourth ward residents for the past few years, and has appointed a police officer, to look after the welfare of that part of the city during the night. L.U. Cousins, who was formerly connected with the city marshal's department, is the appointee. The territory which he is to have in charge is one of the best residence portions of the city, and although hold-ups and burglaries have been of frequent occurrence for a long time past, this is the first effort that has been made to furnish the police protection which the citizens have been asking for.

Ocean Currents.
In order to add to the exact knowledge of ocean currents, there are forms called "bottle papers." In these little papers, an invitation, in six languages, is extended to the masters of vessels to enter occasionally upon the proper lines of the form, the name of the vessel and her cargo, the date, and the ship's position, and then to seal the paper in a bottle and cast it into the sea. In other lines of this form, a request is made, in the same languages, that the finder will write clearly the exact place where and date when any bottle was picked up and by whom, and then forward it to the hydrographical office in Washington or to any of our consulates abroad. These bottles, of course, drift in the ocean currents. Some are picked up soon after they are thrown overboard, others drift for more than a year before being recovered. They furnish valuable records for more correctly fixing the currents already known.
Aurelius Ward had a favorite trick that he loved to indulge in, and out of which he appeared to get a good deal of original fun, says the Californian. This was the disbursing of a rigmarole of nonsense in a solemn and impressive manner, as though he was saying something of unusual weight and importance. It was a game of mystification in which he greatly delighted. At a dinner given him by leading Comstockers at the International hotel, Ward played his trick on Mark Twain, who, present being let into the secret beforehand. He began an absurd exposition of some word genius, upon the conclusion of which the embarrassed Mark was obliged to acknowledge his inability to comprehend the speaker.
"Indeed!" exclaimed Aurelius, and for half a minute he gazed at Mark with a face in which a shade of impatience began to mingle with astonishment and compulsion. Then, heaving a sigh, he said; "Well, perhaps I was not sufficiently explicit. What I wished to say was simply that genius is a sort of illuminating quality of the mind inherent in these of constitutionally inflammable natures, and whose conceptions are not of that ambiguous and disputable kind which may be paraphrased..."
"Hold on, Aurelius," interrupted Mark. "It is useless for you to repeat your definition. The wine or the brandy or the whisky or some other thing has gone to my head. Note it down for me and I'll study it at my leisure."
"Good!" cried Aurelius, his face beaming with pleasure. "I will give it to you tomorrow in black and white. I have been much misunderstood in this matter, and it is important that I should set myself right. You see, to the eye of a person of a warm and inflammable nature, and in whose self-luminous mind ideas arise that are by no means confined to the material which conception furnishes, but may be..."
"For God's sake!" cried Mark, "If you go at that again you'll drive me mad."
The general burst of laughter which followed this fooling and half-angry protest made it plain to Mark that Aurelius had been set to work on him with malice aforethought, and that all present were in the plot and had been amusing themselves at his expense.
NEWS THROUGH A TELEPHONE.
Mr. Goldharl of Hull-Prith Telephone of a Unique Hubristi for a Newspaper.
B. von Harkins, Eugene Goddard, and Stephen Goddard of Budapest, Hungary, were at the Coast house last evening and left this morning on an early train for Colorado, says the Kansas City Star. Mr. Stephen Goddard told of a novel way recently introduced in Budapest for disseminating the news of the day. The Telephonic Gazette has been established there. It is not printed on a perfecting press, in fact, is not printed at all. The editor of the Telephonic Gazette furnishes all the news of the day to his subscribers by telephone at a rate equivalent to sixty cents a month. The subscribers are given a telephone of a special pattern, for which they pay $5. It receives but does not transmit sounds, excepting from the central office, which is the office of the Telephonic Gazette. The telephonic instrument occupies a space of about five inches square and has two earpieces, so that two persons can listen to the sounds on the wire at once. At 8 o'clock in the morning the first edition of the Gazette is announced by the simultaneous ringing of a bell in the houses of the subscribers and the business man and his wife listen to the stories, of the events of the night. The editor is talking to hundreds of other subscribers at the same time and he has the instrument so arranged that inquisitive housewives must content themselves with his precise statement of the news, and not ask whether the fellow was married or not: He hasn't time, this telephonic editor, to answer all the questions women might ask, or go into all the details of the news. He states it in a laconic way.
The second edition appears at 10 o'clock, when the foreign news comes over the wire in a condensed form for twenty minutes or less, according to the amount of foreign news on hand. At 11 o'clock the story of the meeting of Parliament is told, along with divers items of a local and political nature. The price of stocks is given, and the wise broker may have time to hustle out and get "long" or "short" on certain securities in time to "save his bank account. At 12 o'clock there's no edition. The editor of the Telephonic Gazette, unlike other editors, eats and is blessed with that desire about 12 o'clock. At 2 o'clock he begins again, though, and gives a concise statement of the debates in Parliament, telling just what members have been knocked down and often giving the story of the resignation of the ministry, reported so often in Hungary that it sticks on the wires.
At 3 o'clock the editor in the central office opens up on local news again. He tells about fires, riots, and other happenings of the day in Budapest. He gives his subscribers a chance to rest then until 6 o'clock, when he gives literary news and society news, never giving more than five words to the description of any one woman's gown. Sometimes he repeats the latest poem at 8 o'clock. This 8 o'clock edition is popular with the women, and the editor speaks in a soft voice. The 7 o'clock edition is the last. It gives the reports of concerts and plays in progress.
WHAT EVERY MAN IS WORTH.
The Chemical Compound of an Average Voter Are Valued at $18,300.
An interesting exhibit at the National museum shows the physical ingredients which go to make up the average man, weighing 154 pounds, says the American Analyst. A large glass jar holds the ninety-six pounds of water which his body contains. In other receptacles are three pounds of white of egg, a little less than ten pounds of pure glue without which it would be impossible to keep body and soul together, forty-one pounds of fat, five pounds of phosphate of lime, one pound of carbonate of lime, three ounces of sugar and starch, seven ounces of fluoride of calcium, ounces of calcium, ounces of phosphate, magnesia and a little over one pound of ordinary table salt. Divided up into his primary chemical elements the same man is found to contain sixty-seven pounds of oxygen enough to take up, under ordinary atmospheric pressure, the space of a room ten feet long, ten feet wide and ten feet high. His body also holds sixteen pounds of hydrogen, which, under the usual conditions, would occupy somewhat more than two such rooms as that described. To these must be added three pounds and thirteen ounces of nitrogen. The carbon in the corpus of the individual referred to is represented by a cubic foot of coal. It ought to be a diamond of the same size, because the stone is pure carbon, but the National museum has not such a specimen in its possession. A row of bottles contains the ingredients going to make up the man. Those are four ounces of chlorine; three ounces of fluorine, eight ounces of phosphorus, thirteen ounces of brimstone, two ounces of sodium, two and a half ounces of potassium, one tenth of an ounce of iron, two ounces of magnesium, and thirteen pounds and thirteen ounces of calcium. Calcium at present market rates is worth $300 an ounce, so here is the amount of it contained in one ordinary human body has a monetary value of $18,300. Few of our fellow citizens realize that they are worth so much.
A singular case in Irish criminal annals there is a remarkable case to which that of Henry Duncan may yet prove a parallel, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. A man was on trial for his life in Dublin, and the principal witness against him was a person of the name of Delahunt, who swore to all the facts necessary to secure conviction. When the accused was asked what he had to say why sentence should not be pronounced against him, he said he was innocent of the crime, and that the man who had chiefly testified against him was the actual murderer. Sentence was pronounced in due form, but before the execution the authorities investigated the remarkable statement of the prisoner and found it to be true. As a result of further proceedings the prosecuting witness and the alleged murderer changed places in a subsequent session of the court; Delahunt was hanged and the man of whom he had tried to make a victim of his perjury was acquitted.
GOTHAM'S GOLDEN QUEEN
Charms of Head and Heart and Dowered with Millions.
THE SOCIAL DEBUT OF HELEN GOULD
A Coming Fruit in New York Society and Already Set to Be the Talk of the Town.
Young Woman Whom Fortune Has Endowed at $15,000,000.
Among the many social debuts that will take place in New York during the coming winter the one that will excite the most interest is that of Helen M. Gould, only daughter of the great financier and his favorite among all his children.
The entrance into society of this young woman is likely to be accompanied by a little stir and comment. Miss Gould has passed the age when young women are as a rule introduced to the social world in a formal way. She is no longer a young girl in the strict sense of the word, for in the matter of years she is very fairly into the twenties and is grave and womanly beyond her years. She will represent $15,000,000 or more of her own, all good hard cash, or, what is as good, railroad securities whose tendency is ever upward, and property that is always increasing in value. She owns the splendid Fifth avenue residence her father so long occupied, and the great mansion at Irvington-on-the-Hudson, where the Gould family spent the summer. These great properties are the exclusive possession of Miss Gould, and they are gorgeously and completely furnished throughout. Together they are worth quite $1,600,000.
So, while Jay Gould in his lifetime had many and fierce critics and although that sometimes nebulous element known as the best society rather looked down on the famous money maker, there is no likelihood that his daughter will be caviled at unless it be by ambitious matrons with young daughters of their own in the market for disposal to the highest legitimate bidder.
Miss Helen Gould is not strikingly handsome, but she is very sweet and womanly in her manner. She need not fear that she will become a languishing wallflower in the ball and reception rooms that she will figure in during the social season now drawing near. Her recommendations to favor us too many and too weighty.
But as for fortune hunters, they may as well keep their distance. Along with her mother's amiability and sweetness of character, she has much of her father's keenness and strong common sense. Hence, while she will be a prize worth the plucking, the man who would perform that feat must look well to himself, for he will have no gushing damsel to deal with.
Few young women who figure or are soon to figure in New York's social whirl are so little known as is Helen Gould. Even the leaders in the circles where she is to figure do not know the young woman well. They know, to be sure, that she is the daughter of the late Jay Gould, that she is said to be a good and charming girl and that she is enormously rich. Their fund of information runs out at this point, and they are waiting with some curiosity to add to it by means of personal observation.
The social debut of Miss Gould has been delayed considerably beyond the time that it would have been made by the deaths of her father and mother. There was never a daughter more devoted to her mother than was Helen Gould to hers during the latter's declining years. The two were very alike in temperament, and their constant companionship made the daughter the counterpart of her mother in disposition and manners - a result that was good for the young girl, for while the wife of Jay Gould never figured in society, but always shrank from so doing, she was none the less a superior woman in many ways.
The death of this mother threw the young girl upon her own resources. She could not enter into society, and, indeed, had no wish to do so. Instead, she devoted herself to her father, who had become partially an invalid, and up to the time of his death she was his mainstay and his solace in his hours of suffering and sickness.
And so it is that Miss Gould will enter into society a comparative stranger to its members. Those who know Helen Gould give evidence that she is attractive both in appearance and manners. Rather retiring and unassuming, she still has that power of charm that marks some young women of more than ordinarily quiet demeanor.
She is not what would be called a beautiful woman, but she is a handsome one from either a man's or a woman's point of view. Of medium height, Miss Gould is a brunette, but not a very pronounced one. Her hair is dark, but not of the inky blackness that marked her father's hair and beard, and her eyes are of the undulating shade that is neither dark nor brown, but that seems to change and alternate. Her features are strong without the hard lines that were worn into her father's face, and they are further softened by the sweeter and more amiable traits that came to her from her mother - not strictly beautiful, as has been said, but still a woman whose face would command more than a passing glance no matter where seen. She is of graceful figure and the walk of one used to pedestrian exercise. Such is the greatest heiress in America as she is known today.
Miss Gould's name has rarely, if ever, appeared in these papers that assume to know up the small book of New York society to those who like that best-known thing. Nor do you often see it in the great dailies. But when you do, it is always connected with some act of benevolence that has been performed so quietly that even the keen-eyed reporter has stumbled over it by sheer accident.
Work among the city poor was Miss Gould's hobby before her parents died, and since their death she has had more time and more means to continue the work.
Jay Gould himself never posed as a benevolent man or a philanthropist. He used to say it was of no use that he would be merely assailed, and would not have his motives questioned. That he was in a way right was shown when about a year before his death there was a meeting held in his house on Fifth Avenue to further church work in New York. He did not originate the idea. The ministers asked permission to meet in his house. He gave the permission, and he gave in addition his personal check for $10,000 to help the work in hand, and in addition cheques for smaller amounts in the number of other members of his family. For this Gould was severely criticized by the press, religious and secular, which pronounced him an ostentatious hypocrite and several other things besides. It was his first and last experiment of the kind, according to the New York Herald it was his daughter who had brought the affair about, hoping for a very different verdict on her father's action. After this affair, she acted as his almoner and his name never figured in her work although his checkbook was practically at her command.
Miss Gould's method of doing good is practical. She does not send a check to this or that charity and then rest in sweet content, her duty done. Her method is more like the parish visiting system that great ladies in England sometimes affect as a fad rather than for a better reason. Jay Gould and his family were attendants at the church of Dr. John L., Paxton, who preaches to more wealth, perhaps, than any other pastor in New York. Miss Gould, when in New York, always identifies herself with all the mission and benevolent organizations connected with this church and has always stood ready to do real work as to contribute in money. She has acted as a Sunday school teacher and, being a sweet-tempered young woman, was a success. As a volunteer parish worker, she has been invaluable, for while being generous, her strong common sense kept her from being humbugged by chronic paupers.
Her favorite home is her late father's summer house at Irvington, upon which he speuited a fortune, and to good advantage. The house remains her property and Miss Gould spends much of the summer there, to the great satisfaction of the poor of the neighborhood.
Much was written during Jay Gould's lifetime of the splendid hot houses connected with his Irvington home, in which almost every known kind of rare plants and flowers is cultivated regardless of cost. It is said that the famous financier used to smile grimly when complimented upon his skill and taste in horticulture. As a matter of fact, the multi-millionaire had very little to do with his conservatories save to foot the bills. He liked flowers in a negative sort of way, as he liked most of the things that his favorite did, but he left the management of the flowers to his daughter and the expert horticulturist whom he employed.
Miss Gould has always been more quiet in her tastes than most young women of large means. It is and has been with them the fad to go in for sports and games of almost all sorts. Yachting and coaching among first and most important methods of enjoyment follow in their order. Miss Gould has not, so far as is known, displayed proficiency in any of these lines. She is a famous pedestrian and a good horsewoman. Her retired life has made her somewhat of a student and she is a skillful musician. If she ever had literary tendencies, as at one time her father had, she has carefully concealed the fact. She is practically mistress of her vast fortune, but it is not likely to suffer at her hands, for she is said to have as keen a mind for business as even her brother George, now the head of the family and chief conservator of the vast Gould interests.
GAMES OF THE FIELD.
A. Another Suspense Us She Saw a Copperhead Snake
In life with snakes.
For some reason, it has always been the general belief among the people who live in the mountains in York, Lancaster, and other counties in Pennsylvania, where copperhead snakes abound, that this venomous snake will not bite children, and there are numerous wonderful stories told, especially in the Bucks mountains, about the copperhead's leniency toward children. Outside of the mountaineers, these stories have never received credence, but a well-known family living on the York county side of the Susquehanna is ready to accept them hereafter. The family consists of Jacob Loan, his wife, and two children, the youngest a little girl 3 years old. Copperheads are always uncomfortably plentiful in that locality, says the Harrisburg Telegraph, but this season they have been more numerous than usual. The hay and harvest hands have killed from three to ten a day during the past week on the Loan farm.
One day last week, the little 3-year-old was playing in the front yard, and her mother noticed her sitting in the grass near the front gate. Every now and then, she would be heard laughing gleefully, and Mrs. Loan finally walked out to see what was amusing the child so much. When the little girl saw her mother coming, she called out to her: "Come, mamma, and see the big carpet snake!" At the same time, she held up to her mother a snake, which she grasped in the middle of the body, and which twisted and squirmed in the air. Mrs. Loan saw at once that it was a copperhead. Although she was almost swooning with terror, the child's mother acted with rare presence of mind. It occurred to her that if she showed her alarm by crying out to the child, the latter would undoubtedly become frightened, and the change that would naturally follow in her handling or sudden dropping of the snake might anger the copperhead and cause it to bite. With a great effort, Mrs. Loan said, quietly and coaxingly: "Fetch it to mamma, dear. Don't hurt it." But there's two of 'em, mamma," replied the little girl. "I'll fetch 'em both." She reached down and picked up another copperhead that lay in the ground and which Mrs. Loan had not seen and came toddling along toward her mother with them. She laughed when the child walked within a couple yards of her and said: "Put them on the ground, darling, and let mamma see them walk." This seemed to please the child, and she placed the copperheads in the dirt. The two snakes caught sight of Mr. Loan, and instantly their colors changed. The copper spots on the top of their heads began to deepen in color, as it does when the snake is enraged, and they both made toward the child's mother, showing great rage. The little girl clapped her hands and started to catch the snakes again. Her mother rushed out of the path and around the snakes, and snatching the child up in her arms, she ran to the house and into it, closed the door behind her and fell to the floor in a dead faint. The other child, a boy 8 years old, was in another room making a kite. He heard the noise of his mother's fall and his little sister crying, and ran into the room. His father was at work near the house, and the boy quickly summoned him. It was some time before the farmer succeeded in restoring his wife to consciousness and learned the cause of her swooning. Farmer Loan went into the yard and the copperheads were still there, and still in a terrible mood. They were soon killed. So great was the shock to Mrs. Loan that she is still confined to her bed, and the little girl mourned for her deadly playthings for two or three days.

excessive is'suo of currency.
According to the ata'tcmont of circula
tion just issued by the Treasury depart
ment the per capita on August 1 , based
on an estimated population of 07,000,000 ,
was $24.02. The general stock ot
money issued is given as amounting
to $2,213,008,049 , , , of which ? : il2,800,02 : ]
la In the treasury , leaving as the amount
In circulation 31,701,090,017. For twenty
ycara the per capita of circulation has
been Jiighor than on August 1 of this
year but once before , in 181)2 ) , but then
the estimated population was less by at
least 2,000,000. , , Ono of the most prosperous -
porous periods this country has known
was Ootwccn 1871) ) and 1883. Tlioro was
no lack of money folt. Tlio supply was
sufllcicnt not only to 1111 the treasury ,
but to meet the demands of commerce
and nn extraordinary busiucsa activity
followed by very high prices. Yet the
average per capita circulation dur
ing that period was only § 20.01. In
the period ofrom July , 1890 , to'
the present , a period of great monetary
stringency , the average per capita cir
culation has been $2.1.(5 ( , > , thus demon
strating' that thcro may bo hard times
and scarce money with the most abund
ant circulation. With the single ex
ception of Franco the United States has
more circulation per capita than any
other of the great commercial nations
of thp world. According to the latest
trustworthy data the per capita circula
tion in the United Kingdom of Great
Britain is S19.34. Of this , $14.49 is gold ,
circulating "freely among the people.
Of pilvor there is only $2.03 and of
paper $2.24. The per capita circulation
in Germany is still less , being only $17.50 ,
Franco has a seemingly largo per
capita circulation , $41.07 , but of this
$17.95 consists of silver which was coined
prior to 1873. while silver inalnta'ned '
its relative intrinsic value to gold. The
finances of Franco are steadied and made
secure by the possession of at least $800-
000,000 , in gold , furnishing a per capita
circulation in gold coin alone of $20.52.
Moro than half of its depreciated silver ,
a total of $700,000,000 , lies Idly In the"b
Bank of Franco , where it is likely to
remain unused. The disastrous panic
of 1837 followed a period of unbric
died issues of state bank currency -
roncy and' the equally damaging
panic of 1873 was the direct
result of speculation and overtrading
induced by the greenback era. Taking
the example of other great commercial
nations which the free silver people ,
however , propose to ignore and It is
plain that there is no good ground for
the claim that our currency is insuffln
ciont for the wants of business.
It is not an inadequate supply of our-
roncy but the reckless abuse of credit
which is chiefly responsible for the crisis
through which the country is passing ,
An inflation , of the volume of currency ,
whether with silver or paper , with the
certainty of Its ultimate depreciation ,
could not help matters. What is needed
to restore financial eotifldonco is legislac
tion that will insure the maintenance of
the currency wo have on a sound and
stable basis , making provision at the
same time for Increasing it as the
growth of population and business shall
demand , and removing for years to como ,
if possible , the danger of a change of
standard.
owinixo.
The oillcors nnd directors of the
World's firir little dreamed of the trouble
which they wore preparing for thorn-
solves when they began the agitation for
opening the great exposition upon every
day of the week. When a compara
tively insignificant stockholder , in an
ticipation of the injunction proceedings
that wore being' pressed in the federal
court to insure Sunday closing , sue-
ccoded in securing' an ardor from ono of
the state courts restraining the direc
tory from closing the gates on Sundays ,
every body applauded the aol as showing
n commendable cunning. Every ono
connected with the exposition was so
eager to have the grounds kept open to
the public that their enthusiasm scarcely
know bounds when the decision of Chief
Justice Fuller established their right to
pursue their long cherished plans. In
the general jubilation the injunction
granted by Judge Stein dropped com
pletely out of sight and the directors
hold thuir- breath ( n expectation of
enormous Sunday receipts.
If the financial results of Sunday open
ing had turned out nil that had been ex
pected or had even proven sulllolont to
justify the procedure , no further legal
complications could have arisen oxoopt
perhaps in relation to the return of the
money advanced conditionally by '
congress , Sunday opening ended 'yo
financial failure and rather than Iinvo
the expenditure for that day exceed the
receipts , thu plausible excuse that the
people did not want to attend the fair 10m
Sundays was conjured up to justify u re
versal of the previous decision. The
gates to the White City wore closed on
July 23. The fact that they wore
opened again a week later indicated that
the directors had gotten the wind of an
impending calamity and that calamity
soon appeared in the form of several
generous fines Imposed by Judge Stoiu
int.
for the vloluton of the order of his court.
The aggregate tines amount to $5,750 and
if that rate is to be the minimum , the
directors dlsnloyed excellent judgment
in ordering the gates to bo opened on I
Sunday lust. The judge has evidently |
matlo the seriousness of contempt In his
court depend upon the magnitude of
the operations Involved in the judicial
order. Ho allowed tlio directors who
wore fined an appeal from hU decision ,
but It is unlikely that they will venture
to again order the gates closed unless
that appeal results in overruling the
judgment that imposed the fines. Sun
day closing at the price of $0,750 per
day la altogether too expensive a luxury
for oven the pampered World's fair di
rectors. The prospects for continuing
Sunday opening are at present exceed
ingly bright.
DAxannous
Once more a coroner's jury summoned
to Investigate the death of a man
wantonly sacrificed to the deadly rail
road crossing has returned a vordlct
that no blame attache ! * to any ono in the
matter. It was developed during the Inquest -
quest that the accident occurred shortly
af tor 0 o'clock in the evening , at which
hour the Huffman retires from his post
of duty. The railway authorities ovi'
tlontly proceed upon the theory that
whllo n Hag of warning is necessary In
the daytime , people crossing the tracks
nt night , when it is more ditlicnlt to see
the passing trains , require no further
protection than is afforded them by
their own eyes and ears. If it is neces
sary to kcop u man at a crossing in order
to protect life nnd property previous to
0 o'clock it appears to bo indefensible
carelessness to withdraw such protec
tion just at a time when it is most
needed.
The condition of the railway crossings
in this city is a monaco to the safety of
the community. Unprotected by gates
of any description , pedestrian and driver
arc allowed to enter upon the tracks ,
nnd oven whou trains nro passing no
efforts are made to stop persons approaching
preaching until they are within a few
yards of the danger line. At some
points the grades are so deep as to pre
vent pedestrians from obtaining a clear
view of the field until they are practi
cally uion the brink of the precipice.
A situation of this kind would not long
bo tolerated In other cities. Everywhere
gates are required in the larger munici
palities at all crossings over which
heavy trafllc is maintained , and flagmen
are required to be present at all hours
of ! the day and night. It would seem
ordinarily to bo to the interest of the
railways to provide pj-opor safeguards
asi such places and thus to avoid the pos
sibility of damage suits consequent upon
accidents. Hero , however , they prefer
tcst save the present expense and to as
sume the risk of fighting litigation to
the courts of last report. The lives of
the persons using tlje crossings cut no
figure whatever in their calculations.
fiCl long as exonerating verdicts of the
coroner's jury are so easily obtainable ,
no adequate provision will bo made by
the railways in this connection until
compelled to do so by the public author-
tios.
TARIFF ItBVltilOX 111' CuMMlSSlOX.
The plan of having the tariff revised
by a commission , to be composed of prac
tical business mon and political economists -
omists , their work to bo subject , of
course , to the approval of congress , is
not now. There was a tariff commission
appointed in 1882 and it reported a bill
to congress which by many was regarded
ns a very good measure , but it received
hardly any consideration from congress ,
*
The measure reported by the commtsn
slon provided for a reduction of duties
of about 20 per cent , but it was
rejected and a bill passed which did
not make so largo a reduction of duties ,
Thus ] the work of the commission was
practically j to no purpose and the time
and expense involved wasted. There
is no reason to suppose that another
tariff commission would have any bettor
success.
Doubtless most people will conclude
on first thought that a body composed of '
practical business men and learned
economists , free from political and par-
tisan inllucnces , could make a much
more judicious revision of the tarill than
u committee of politicians necessarily
more or less under partisan influence.
It seems reasonable to assume
this t , but , if it bo admitted , the
difilculty is that congress will
not abdicate its function of tariff mak
ing. The mon who will compose the
ways and means committee of the house
of representatives cannot bo induced to
believe that they are not as well quali
fied as any other sot of men to frame a
tariff bill , and however admirable a
measure a commission might present' it ,
would not bo accepted. When it was
suggested soruo months ago that con
gress bo called together to create a com
, mission , the proposal found very fowsup-
porters among the democratic roprojon-
tativorf. They may generally have
thought this an insufficient reason for
calling congress together , and BO indeed
It would have been , but a stronger con
sideration than this was tho-fooling that
the duty of revising the tariff according
to democratic views could only bo prop
erly and safely committed to thu men
chosen by the people for this duty.
There can bo no reasonable fault found
with this view. The party in control of
itn
congress is committed by the platform
on which it was elected to u certain
policy regarding the tariff. It lias de
clared that protection is u fraud and 3a
robbery and without constitutional
warrant ; that the government has no
right to levy duties except for reve
nue. This position of the party
must bo borne in mind in revising the
tariff , which would not be done by tea
commission. The suggestion of such a
body to revise the tariff , which is again
made , is not , therefore , likely to bo
heeded. The administration has on >
hand a measure framed by a committee
of the Tariff Reform league , and it will
perhaps bo able to give valuable as-
folutanco to the ways atid moans commit
tee in this way , but this Is doubtless t13
far as congress will go in seeking 13t
t10
Bide aid in the matter of revising the
tariff. At any rate it is entirely safe to
say that there will be no tariff commis ,
sion.
POTTAWATTAMIK county republicans

11in

The success of high license in other

without respect to political party.

Till : serious problem which most con
cerns the west at the present time is the
question of securing sufficientfunds to
move the Immense crops of small grain

movement requires largo sums of money

have advanced the necessary funds with
alacrity. At the present time , however ,
the banks are declining to advance the
needed cash and the grain mon are seri
ously embarrassed. In the emergency
it is likely that the farmer and the
grain men will be compelled to adopt
some plan of mutual credit by which
the grain can bo'lnovotl wltnout the

MINISTER BLOUNT will return from Hawaii by the next steamer. Post-mortem his report will be of sufficient interest to detract the attention of the public from the tiresome discussion of the silver question. If it is, the mission of the paramount statesman from Georgia will achieve a new and added distinction.
THE REFORM OF CURRENCY.
One of the arguments of the free silver men is that the supply of money is not sufficient to do the business of the country. They put this forth among the declarations of the Chicago convention and there can be no doubt that it is an influential argument with millions of people. Belief in the efficacy of an abundant currency to create wealth and business prosperity has been a dominant financial heresy from the beginning of the government. Because rich countries have more circulating medium than poor ones, it is logically inferred that all that is needed to make a country rich is to give it plenty of money, no matter of what kind. The original colonies went through various phases of this delusion, omitting such quantities of paper money that at the close of the war of the revolution it had little more value than confederate scrip at the close of the rebellion. The country has since experienced numerous financial collapses, all preceded by an excessive issue of currency.
According to the statement of circulation just issued by the Treasury department, the per capita on August 1, based on an estimated population of 76,000,000, was $24.02. The general stock of money issued is given as amounting to $2,213,008,049, of which $12,800,032 is in the treasury, leaving as the amount in circulation $31,701,090,017. For twenty years the per capita of circulation has been higher than on August 1 of this year but once before, in 1812, but then the estimated population was less by at least 2,000,000. One of the most prosperous periods this country has known was between 1871 and 1883. There was no lack of money forth. The supply was sufficient not only to meet the demands of the treasury, but to meet the demands of commerce and an extraordinary business activity followed by very high prices. Yet the average per capita circulation during that period was only $20.01. In the period from July, 1890, to the present, a period of great monetary stringency, the average per capita circulation has been $21.25, thus demonstrating that there may be hard times and scarce money with the most abundant circulation. With the single exception of France, the United States has more circulation per capita than any other of the great commercial nations of the world. According to the latest trustworthy data, the per capita circulation in the United Kingdom of Great Britain is $19.34. Of this, $14.49 is gold, circulating freely among the people. Of silver there is only $2.03 and of paper $2.24. The per capita circulation in Germany is still less, being only $17.50, France has a seemingly large per capita circulation, $41.07, but of this $17.95 consists of silver which was coined prior to 1873, while silver maintained its relative intrinsic value to gold. The finances of France are steadied and made secure by the possession of at least $800,000,000 in gold, furnishing a per capita circulation in gold coin alone of $20.52. More than half of its depreciated silver, a total of $700,000,000, lies idle in the Bank of France, where it is likely to remain unused. The disastrous panic of 1837 followed a period of unbridled issues of state bank currency and the equally damaging panic of 1873 was the direct result of speculation and overtrading induced by the greenback era. Taking the example of other great commercial nations, which the free silver people, however, propose to ignore, it is plain that there is no good ground for the claim that our currency is insufficient for the wants of business.
It is not an inadequate supply of our currency but the reckless abuse of credit which is chiefly responsible for the crisis through which the country is passing. An inflation of the volume of currency, whether with silver or paper, with the certainty of its ultimate depreciation, could not help matters. What is needed to restore financial confidence is legislation that will insure the maintenance of the currency we have on a sound and stable basis, making provision at the same time for increasing it as the growth of population and business shall demand, and removing for years to come, if possible, the danger of a change of standard.
Opening.
The officers and directors of the World's fair little dreamed of the trouble which they were preparing for themselves when they began the agitation for opening the great exposition upon every day of the week. When a comparatively insignificant stockholder, in anticipation of the injunction proceedings which were being pressed in the federal court to insure Sunday closing, succeeded in securing an order from one of the state courts restraining the directors from closing the gates on Sundays, everyone applauded the act as showing commendable cunning. Everyone connected with the exposition was so eager to have the grounds kept open to the public that their enthusiasm scarcely knew bounds when the decision of Chief Justice Fuller established their right to pursue their long-cherished plans. In the general jubilation, the injunction granted by Judge Stein dropped completely out of sight and the directors held their breath in expectation of enormous Sunday receipts.
If the financial results of Sunday opening had turned out all that had been expected or had even proven sufficient to justify the procedure, no further legal complications could have arisen except perhaps in relation to the return of the money advanced conditionally by Congress. Sunday opening did not result in financial failure and rather than have the expenditure for that day exceed the receipts, the plausible excuse that the people did not want to attend the fair on Sundays was conjured up to justify a reversal of the previous decision. The gates to the White City were closed on July 23. The fact that they were opened again a week later indicated that the directors had gotten wind of an impending calamity and that calamity soon appeared in the form of several substantial fines imposed by Judge Stein.
For the violation of the order of his court, the directors were fined a total of $5,750 and if that rate is to be the minimum, the directors displayed excellent judgment in ordering the gates to be opened on Sunday last. The judge has evidently made the seriousness of contempt in his court depend upon the magnitude of the operations involved in the judicial order. He allowed the directors, who were fined, an appeal from his decision, but it is unlikely that they will venture to again order the gates closed unless that appeal results in overruling the judgment that imposed the fines. Sunday closing at the price of $5,750 per day is altogether too expensive a luxury for even the pampered World's fair directors. The prospects for continuing Sunday opening are at present exceedingly bright.
DANGEROUS
Once more a coroner's jury summoned to investigate the death of a man wantonly sacrificed to the deadly railroad crossing has returned a verdict that no blame attaches to anyone in the matter. It was developed during the inquest that the accident occurred shortly after 8 o'clock in the evening, at which hour the Huffman retires from his post of duty. The railway authorities openly proceed upon the theory that while a flag of warning is necessary in the daytime, people crossing the tracks at night, when it is more difficult to see the passing trains, require no further protection than is afforded them by their own eyes and ears. If it is necessary to keep a man at a crossing in order to protect life and property prior to 8 o'clock it appears to be indefensible carelessness to withdraw such protection just at a time when it is most needed.
The condition of the railway crossings in this city is a menace to the safety of the community. Unprotected by gates of any description, pedestrians and drivers are allowed to enter upon the tracks, and even when trains are passing no efforts are made to stop persons approaching until they are within a few yards of the danger line. At some points the grades are so deep as to prevent pedestrians from obtaining a clear view of the field until they are practically upon the brink of the precipice.
A situation of this kind would not long be tolerated in other cities. Everywhere gates are required in the larger municipalities at all crossings over which heavy traffic is maintained, and flagmen are required to be present at all hours of the day and night. It would seem ordinarily to be to the interest of the railways to provide proper safeguards at such places and thus to avoid the possibility of damage suits consequent upon accidents. Here, however, they prefer to save the present expense and to assume the risk of fighting litigation to the courts of last resort. The lives of the persons using the crossings cut no figure whatever in their calculations. As long as exonerating verdicts of the coroner's jury are so easily obtainable, no adequate provision will be made by the railways in this connection until compelled to do so by the public authorities.
TARIFF REVISION IN CONGRESS.
The plan of having the tariff revised by a commission, to be composed of practical business men and political economists, their work to be subject, of course, to the approval of Congress, is not now. There was a tariff commission appointed in 1882 and it reported a bill to Congress which by many was regarded as a very good measure, but it received hardly any consideration from Congress.
The measure reported by the commission provided for a reduction of duties of about 20 percent, but it was rejected and a bill passed which did not make such a large reduction of duties. Thus, the work of the commission was practically to no purpose and the time and expense involved were wasted. There is no reason to suppose that another tariff commission would have any better success.
Doubtless, most people will conclude on first thought that a body composed of practical business men and learned economists, free from political and partisan influences, could make a much more judicious revision of the tariff than a committee of politicians necessarily more or less under partisan influence. It seems reasonable to assume this, but, if it be admitted, the difficulty is that Congress will not abdicate its function of tariff making. The men who will compose the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Representatives cannot be induced to believe that they are not as well qualified as any other set of men to frame a tariff bill, and however admirable a measure a commission might present, it would not be accepted. When it was suggested some months ago that Congress be called together to create a commission, the proposal found very few supporters among the Democratic representatives. They may generally have thought this an insufficient reason for calling Congress together, and so indeed it would have been, but a stronger consideration than this was the feeling that the duty of revising the tariff according to Democratic views could only be properly and safely committed to the men chosen by the people for this duty.
There can be no reasonable fault found with this view. The party in control of Congress is committed by the platform on which it was elected to a certain policy regarding the tariff. It has declared that protection is a fraud and a robbery and without constitutional warrant; that the government has no right to levy duties except for revenue. This position of the party must be borne in mind in revising the tariff, which would not be done by such a commission. The suggestion of such a body to revise the tariff, which is again made, is not, therefore, likely to be heeded. The administration has on hand a measure framed by a committee of the Tariff Reform league, and it will perhaps be able to give valuable assistance to the Ways and Means Committee in this way, but this is doubtless as far as Congress will go in seeking aid in the matter of revising the tariff. At any rate, it is entirely safe to say that there will be no tariff commission.
POTTAWATTAMIE County Republicans come out squarely with a resolution of their convention favoring such a modification of the present prohibitory law in force in Iowa as will permit to counties, in which a majority expresses itself by ballot, to inaugurate a system of high license. A majority of this kind, they say, will place the saloon in legal subordination; in localities where the existing law is prohibitive. No one familiar with the situation in Iowa will venture to assert that prohibition has proven a success anywhere in the state, and so the sooner a law, which violates the sentiment of the people, is taken from the statute book, the sooner will a healthy regard for law and order develop in those communities which have never pretended to observe the prohibitory enactments. So long as the saloon must continue to exist to cater to an effective popular demand for intoxicating liquors, some kind of regulation remains an absolute necessity. As yet, no better device has been invented for this purpose than the restriction of the liquor traffic by means of high license. The success of high license in other states ought to commend that system to the consideration of Iowa legislators without respect to political party.
WE REMEMBER the cry that arose during the last presidential campaign that Grover Cleveland was better than his party. Some thought this a point in his favor, others regarded it as weighing against him. Now we are informed that the president does not represent the Democratic Party because he is said to misrepresent it on the question of money. The silverite who gave vent to this expression of his disgust with the president's actions meant by it to read Mr. Cleveland out of the Democratic Party and did not hesitate to class several other prominent Democrats in the same category. If we will now wait patiently for a little while, we may be entertained by the sight of two factions, each claiming to be the true Democratic Party. The prospect for Democratic harmony does not appear to be rapidly improving.
This serious problem which most concerns the West at the present time is the question of securing sufficient funds to move the immense crops of small grain to the markets in the East. The crop movement requires large sums of money every year and heretofore the banks have advanced the necessary funds with alacrity. At the present time, however, the banks are declining to advance the needed cash and the grain men are seriously embarrassed. In the emergency, it is likely that the farmer and the grain men will be compelled to adopt some plan of mutual credit by which the grain can be moved without the necessity of cash payments at the time of delivery to the elevator.
THE governor of Colorado attached another string to his recently acquired fame by repeating his bloody bridges speech at Chicago the other day. The distinguished "exponent of populist doctrines is evidently determined to hold fast to what little notoriety he has already achieved, even if he does so at the expense of sober-minded members of his party.
THE same telegraph wire which yesterday brought the intelligence that Congressman Bryan is to be dropped from the Ways and Means Committee brought the mournful news that the silver convention passed over the young congressman in making up its Ways and Means Committee, and gave Nebraska's place on that committee to an individual named Paul Vandervort.
IT is barely possible that the time may come in Nebraska when the candidate for state treasurer who pays the highest cash bonus for the privilege of handling the public school funds will be given the keys of the treasury. The state will then be sure of collecting the bonus, even if it is certain to lose what money there happens to be in the several school funds.
IF political considerations will be ignored during the extra session and an honest effort is made to extricate the country from the predicament that has followed as the logical result of the panic-stricken imaginations of the people of the whole country, the outlook will be greatly improved and confidence will once more be restored to a gold basis.

RECEIVERS Hayworth of the defunct Moscow Bank has just made a declaration that will not contribute to the personal comfort of the bondsmen of ex-Treasurer Hill.

IF the free silver men had their own way, they would impeach the secretary of the treasury for not construing the provisions of the Sherman Silver Purchase Law in the way most favorable to the silver owners. If the free silver men had the power, what would they not do?

The humor for land. Chicago. Over a thousand miles along the borders of the Cherokee strip in the Indian territory there is the unabashed camp of prospective settlers, bent on a rush into the promised land when President Cleveland shall declare the country open to settlement. Ten thousand are supposed to be making for this proclamation, and every day their numbers grow faster.
While this demonstration is not wholly new, it is, nevertheless, a remarkable exhibition of a spirit truly American.
There have been hardships endured in the long months of waiting on the borders of this new territory. There will be additional troubles to be borne, from the deserted mines and manufacturies of the West, workers have trooped to this borderland and will join in the scramble. No one has as great a claim for place, and if the territory is opened in the season, thousands of people must suffer during the winter in preserving their rights.
The wisdom of miners and mechanics flocking to the territory may be questioned. This is a wild country, deficient in agricultural or manufacturing resources. How shall these penniless people maintain themselves until another crop season? And how can they hope to successfully till the ground without money for implements and without a knowledge of sowing, planting, and cultivating?
Time for the Talihrs to Turn.
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad company has filed a petition in the courts praying for an injunction to prevent the authorities from compelling it to obey the laws of Nebraska in regard to freight rates. In other words, the company refuses to comply with the maximum freight rate law passed by the legislature of Nebraska and will attempt to prove it to be inoperative, because not constitutional.
It seems as though the railroads have finally come to the point and refuse to submit to the will of the people, whereas it would be much better for them to comply with the popular demand and respect our laws. Another legislative body will meet and pass laws two years hence. It would have been policy to have allowed the law to go into effect, given it a fair trial, and then if they could not do a playing business, they would at least have convinced the people that they were willing to accommodate to the public demand, and no doubt, steps would have been taken to rectify the wrong.
It has been very little mercy the railroads have shown the masses when a different state of affairs existed and the railroads dictated the laws to be enacted. They ought to be compelled to take a dose of their own medicine and see how they relish it.
Politics and the Railroads.
If it be true that corporate influence is being used unduly, within the democratic or within the republican party, with a view to determining action at the approaching state conventions, some evidence now would be more important than at any time later. The membership of either party, on the whole, prefer to attend to their own business; they prefer to be free of dictation from corporate combinations, and they are certainly opposed to the nomination of men for responsible public service who may be under embarrassing obligation to the corporations.
After the nominations have been made it is not so easy to get impartial public attention. The presumption is strong that partisan influence, then, is the source from whence disclosures spring: and so far as mere partisanship is answerable for what is said, rather than purpose to protect the cause in court of the people, the public is quite justified in holdingness. The very best time to warn the people is now.
Ought to Have Trial It.
Hastings Daily Conner.
Judge Dundy issued some four or five temporary injunctions on Saturday, the intent and purpose of which appears to be the constitutionality of the new maximum freight rate law, but the real purpose of which is aimed at affecting all its provisions and purposes. The injunction is at the instance of shortholders and restrains the railroad companies, the State Board of Transportation and county attorneys from putting the maximum freight rate law into effect. We wish they had tried it, inasmuch as the multitude of Nebraska people want it. If it would prove to be a good thing we all want it. If it would prove to be a bad thing we would soon find it out and could then get relief from the supreme court. As the case now stands, the new freight law hangs on the court hook and nobody can tell when it will be taken down.
Promises and Population.
Merall.
The population of the states and territories producing silver is a little over 1,000,000, or one-sixty-fifth part of the total population of the country. The total popular vote of the country in 1888 was 12,154,542. The vote of the silver states and territories was one-thirtieth of the total vote; the vote of the states separately was less than one-seventh of the total vote. The electoral vote of the silver states was but 31 out of 444, or less than one-thirty-third of the whole. To hear the vociferous declamation, the stormy orations, the lurid menaces and the furious denunciations of the shouters and browbeaters this week, a person who knows no better might suppose that they constituted the vastly greater majority instead of the insignificantly smaller minority of the population and the voters.
This is an opportunity for a great man. If President Cleveland sizes up to the situation he will force a brief and most direct policy upon Congress. It will be this: Repeal the silver bill without condition; adjourn at once and give the country a chance to settle down before taking up the tariff.
And on the repeal of the silver bill every senator and representative who believes in honest money and in putting an end to the panic ought to unite without regard to political adulations. Drop partisanship.
Jack's Fair Building.
Quaker Democrat.
The failure of "Jack" Cudahy in Chicago, while it may have its effect on prices for the time being, ought not to make any impression upon the financial situation. Mr. Cudahy was a heavy dealer in phantom wheat and phantom pork. He hardly ever saw a bushel of actual wheat or a barrel of actual pork, and yet he deals by the million in each of these articles. His failure should have no more commercial importance than the closing of a big gambling house at Long Branch or Stratford.
As Good as a Bank.
Sew York Daily.
While we read daily of banks, business houses, great manufacturing enterprises, closing up and suspending payments, nobody has yet read of a farmer making an assignment. The farmers all over the United States are in better shape than anybody else. When the farmers begin to make assignments, woe be unto the people.

THE GOLD TIDE FLOWS IN.
Philadelphia Record: Gold continues to flow from Europe to America. The tide is a little late in solving this way, but very welcome.
Chicago Record: Gold is coming back from Europe just in time to inflame the silver conference brethren to a white heat of indignation.
Globe-Democrat: Whether we editor not, we will have to accept a good deal of gold from Europe in the next few months. Over $1,000,000 of it is on the way to this country now.
Kansas City Journal: Gold is returning to this country at a rate which indicates that European capitalists have bought about all the American securities at bear prices they care for.
Philadelphia Press: Gold imports are the first result of the general conviction that Congress will suspend silver purchases. The suspension itself will start them toward this country in a flood, for exports have never moved more fully abroad.
Chicago Tribune: Considerable quantities of gold are now in motion from Europe toward the United States, reversing the current which for many months past set strongly the other way. The price of sterling exchange is now so low that the inflow would be much larger were it not for the difficulty of making the requisite financial arrangements at our seaboard.
Colorado's National Tourist Office.
If these misguided men, and I use the word advisedly, could be halted in their march, and obliged to take such work as they can get on western farms and ranches. Thousands of them could there find opportunity to earn a living, if nothing more, and it is to be presumed that those who have started eastward thus blindly have not families behind them. Any occupation, however poorly paid, which will give them shelter and food until better opportunities arise, would be far better for them than the struggle for subsistence in which they will have to engage if they reach Chicago or cities further eastward. Colorado itself is a state so rich in land and in climate that they could hardly have hoped for better opportunities elsewhere in times like these. But it is evidently the worst misfortune of these men that they have so little knowledge of their country or of the time, and are listening to advice which no man of sense or uprightness could give them.
Solvency of Savings Banks.
New York Times.
As an unwise persistence in drawing deposits from savings banks, in spite of all reason, might after a while compel them to sacrifice their investments in an unfavorable market to obtain cash, to the actual injury of the depositors and to the peril of the banks themselves if the process were long kept up, it is necessary to put in force the rule requiring notice for the protection of all concerned. The savings banks are in no danger of being hurt by anybody but their own depositors and the latter should rest easy in the assurance that they are the ones least likely in the community whose financial security is impregnable if they do not assail it themselves.

LINOOI.X , Aug. 8. 'Special Telegram to
tint BKI : . ] Superintendent Goudy has an
nounced the following ofltcSal opinions In re-
s xraso to queries from school officers and
directors :
' The statute recites that n continuous nb-
nenco from the district for n period of sixty
days on the part of a district ofllcnr causes a
vacancy In thn olllco filled by him.
"When a vacancy occurs Iu a school board
the remaining members of the board may
nppolntsomeone to 1111 the vacancy till the
tioxt annual district meeting , or the board
may call a special mooting of the district
for the purpose of electing a member.
"Under the statute authorizing the board
of education to enter into n contract with a
superintendent for three years it will bo
competent for such board to renew , or rather
to extend , n contract originally made for ono
year to cover the original tlmo for which
such contract might have been made with
the consent of the other party to the con
tract.
"Two members of n district Ward hnvo a
right to employ teachers without the advice
or consent of the third member.
' There nro certain funds devoted exclu
sively to the payment of the wages of
tcachors , such as the state fund apportioned
from this ofllco twice each year. No orders
for anything but teachers' wages can legally
bo drawn against this fund.
"I am of the opinion that a school house
filto cannot bo legally located at n special
mooting ; it will bo necessary for the district
to wait till the annual mooting to either
change or to locate a site.
"I am of the. opinion that a superintendent
may not legally grant a second grade cor-
tlllcato for u less period than one year. "

fire last evening was splendidly attended ,
General Hanback , General Church and
Hon. Church Howe delivered the principal
speeches. Church Howe stated In hi *
oration that the only way to right the pen
sion wrongs was for the pooolo to elect con
gressmen that were frfonds to the old flag ;
that the pension commissioner could not bo
blamed for his notions as ho had served as a
true soldier the war through and could only
oxccuto the orders Issued by President
Cleveland and Hoko Smith. .
At 5:30 : came the sound of rovellos from
camp headquarters. Thn partially dressed
guards Issued from their tents and break
fast nnd fatlguo duties wore quickly als-
posed of. The crowd had already com
menced to assemble. Battalion drill was
next m order. The movements were per
fectly oxocutcd and nothing attracted moro
admiration than the appearance of the com

in regard to the bravery'of the Nebraska
volunteers and their cocimandnr , and Intro
duced General Thayor. As ho arose the
boys gave him threu hearty chcors and a
tiger.
Years have lichtly touched the general ,
and his words of living lire and rousine en
thusiasm carried the boys back to" the
years of 1801-155 , when ho led his 1,000
men on to victory at Donaldson , Shlloh ,
Vicksburg and other battlollolds not to
bo forgotten ; and while ho did not verge
upon politics , nothing could have boon
moro to the point than the earnestness
and Imprcsslveness of his ideas ol ! the
government's debt to the old soldiers.
Lieutenant Governor Majors was then In
troduced by General Halfback , with a few
witty remarks in regard to his last wcok's
ilshing trip. His lirst words were : "I
thank God I never wont fishing on Memorial

to bo the prevalent fooling today could not
last forever.
General Dllworth was next introduced.
Ho most heartily endorsed the vlows of the

Rovlow of the Work ol the Chicago Silver
Convention.
CHICAGO , Aug. 3 Now that the silver
convention Is over an analysis of what it
has accomplished is not amiss.
There were statements prior to the
convention that the silver men were "on
the run , " and that they woul $ never go
so far as to pass resolutions demanding
of congress the free coinage of silver at
any ratio. It was said that they would I
mildly protest against tlio repeal of the
so-called Sherman law , and finally that
thov saw it was sheer folly for them to
resist the tremendous pressure which
public sentiment was bringing to bear
upon members of congress for the wipIng - .
Ing from the statute books of all legis
lation in favor of silvpr. But were these
prognostications i-oalined ?
If the resolutions adopted yesterday
count for anything they are certainly
wide of the mark. Senator Stewart was
quoted in Washington specials when ho
loft that city to the effect that ho was
coming to Chicago to enter a protest
against the repeal of the law , but that
ho did not expect congress would pay
any attention to tlio demands maQo hero.
"The Sherman law will bo repealed"ho
waId , "without a substitute of any sort.
The result will bo an increase of the
panicky condition in financial affairs and
finally the passage of a free coinage law
as the only means of restoring confi
dence. That is in the future , however. "
"Tho resolutions adopted yesterday , "
said a prominent silver man , "show that
wo do not propose to take the part of a
subservient menial. Wo have rights
which wo will maintain to the very
last ditch. As stated by Senator Allen ,
'wo will stay in Washington until the
crack of doom. ' "
Does that look as though the silver
men were on the run ?
As soon as the clans gathered on
Monday morning and evening it was
Been that a largo majority of the dele
gates were not only silver men , but
also members of the party which gave
the two old parties a bad scare last fall
the populists. During the last two
years these amateur politicians have
gained considerable experience ; in fact ,
they have acquired almost as much
ability as political wire pull
ers as the adherents of
the old parties. When they reached
the battle ground they immediately sot
to work at tholr old trick ol attempting-
to ' 'split" the two senior organizations
"up the back. " They caucussod with
silver leaders all Monday and Monday
night as to who should bo selected as
chairman of the convention. General
Warner could have had the chairman
ship had ho wanted it ; so could any sil
ver man , as well as any prominent popu i-
list , but that was not their lay. The
selection of ono of tholr own party would
do thorn 110 good. The question was
how best to defeat the enemy. They
therefore rcaohcd the conclusion that to
select n prominent loader In either of
the old parties would about accomplish
ho end desired. First Senator Reagan
of Texas was thought to bo a good man ,
and it had almost boon decided to select
him , but the thought occurred to them
that some parts ot the southern de
mocracy were already in a state of
disintegration , .so that It minht not , per *
haps , ho the best move. So they cast
about for a more available iuaut and ono
moro Hkoly to do mo fn damage to the
ot follow. Tholrinllontlon woscallod
to . Thurmiw/ / of the "Old
ton
Roman , " the old hard money loader.
Thurmnn was nppnxxchcd , nnd , bolng
the son ot Ills father , what could ho do
Info accept. When ho mounted the plat
form Tuesday mormn'fc to address the
silver convention ho' tfttido ono of these
rod-hot free colnaffpf speeches which
only n silver man cnn dp.
01ot The people's party , > therefore scored
once moro , and the work of decimating
the ranks of the old 'parties ' goes on. So
the populist loaders' think , any way.
The yclalm that tho.let-lection of nnd ac
ceptance of by Thurmnn will create dis
affection in the party , and propose to
profit by the deal.

DKTnorr , Aug. 3.For a long tlmo
devotees of the wheel have boon looking
forward ( to the meeting hero for the first
tlmo between the two crack riders of the
cast and west respectively Zimmerman
and Sangor. They first came into con
junction J > Tuesday In the ono-nillo open
race , each bolng apparently afraid to
: test ' the succd of the other , laying back
in { ! the bunch andwatching each other
like hawka. The time made was so slow
that the referee declared it no race.
Bcforo tills , however , Chairman Raymond
mend read the riot net to the men , and
it showed good results.
Zimmerman was loudly applauded as
ho appeared In the track. Sanger , Tay
lor and nlno others had appeared n few
minutes before without notice. A tlmo
limit of 2:40 : was placed. The men
were hunched nt the throo-quartcrs ,
when Sanger shot to the front. Zim
merman accepted the challenge , nnd
these two great riders flew down the
stretch lengths in front of the field.
Sanger had gained two lengths and was
riding at the polo , Zimmerman six feet
out. Sanger looked around at his great
rival , pumped a little harder and every
Inch ho gained. At the distance stands
each man put Jon all steam and the finish
was torrillc. The Milwaukee giant
shot over the tape a length in advance of
his opponent amid the wildest yells
from tlio crowd.
It was the flrst real test between the
two giants of the cycling path and the
east had fallen before the woolly west.
The time was 2:2015. : . George Taylor
finished tliird and Brown got in fourth.
It was a good , clean-cut victory for
Sanger , and the west cheered him
wildly. Snngcr wasn't in the least dis
tressed , and , while pleased with the re
sult , was not at all boastful. Ho had
beaten Zimmerman in the flrst genuine
race in which they had mot and was jus
tified in fooling gratifled.
Zimmerman took his defeat good-
uaturodly. Ho said : "I am not In good
shape and feel stilTand.soro , ; besides , the
wind in the stretch bothered mo. " So
hard did the eastern jhen work to beat
Sanger that all of them were upset when
they got to their dressing rooms. Tay
lor's stomach was rebellious and ho was
weak. > -
The time by quarters was : :31 : ; 1:16 : ;
1-51 3-5 ; 2:20 : 4-5 ; lastquarter , in 29 3-5.
The great battle had been fought and
the west was triumphant.

Col. O. J. Wright , U. aA. U.CormTnll.N. Y | Back to the front page today. A number of important school decisions have been made recently by the superintendent. These decisions explain a number of interrelated questions, particularly regarding the duty of Nebraska school boards.
Director M. Krueger and Superintendent Goudy have clarified several points of confusion. For instance, the statute states that if a district officer does not show up for sixty days, a vacancy in the office is created. When a vacancy occurs on a school board, the remaining members may appoint someone to fill the vacancy until the next annual district meeting, or they may call a special meeting of the district for the purpose of electing a member.
Under the statute authorizing the board of education to enter into a contract with a superintendent for three years, it is competent for the board to renew, or rather to extend, a contract originally made for one year to cover the original time for which such contract might have been made with the consent of the other party to the contract.
Two members of a district ward have a right to employ teachers without the advice or consent of the third member.
There are certain funds devoted exclusively to the payment of teachers' wages, such as the state fund apportioned from this office twice each year. No orders for anything but teachers' wages can legally be drawn against this fund.
It is not legal to locate a school site at a special meeting; it will be necessary for the district to wait until the annual meeting to either change or to locate a site.
It is the opinion of the superintendent that a superintendent may not legally grant a second grade certificate for a less period than one year.
George H. Smith, an Omaha citizen convicted of grand larceny a few weeks ago, has applied to Chief Justice Maxwell for a misappoinment of his sentence. At the time of his conviction, he was given thirty days in which to prepare his papers for an appeal to the supreme court. Before the papers could be prepared, the official stenographer of Judge Korsor's court, W. A. Messick, visited the South Omaha stockyards and while there had his face kicked by an excitable bronco. The injuries inflicted by the temporarily festive bronco were of such serious nature that Messick was unable to complete the transcript in Smith's case within the prescribed limit. Hence, Smith's application to the chief justice for a further suspension of sentence.
Daniel H. Wheeler of Omaha was at the state house this afternoon.
Representative Kynor of Douglas county was at the state house this forenoon.
The case of H. J. Morrick against William J. M. Kennedy was filed with the clerk of the supreme court this afternoon. It originated in Johnson county, and involves the settlement of the estate of Harriet L. Kennedy.
Another Johnson county case was filed this afternoon: Albert Bushnell against C. M. Chamberlain, J. R. Tabor, and C. M. Wilson, formerly partners, doing business under the firm name of the Cook Lumber company.
The case of the State bank of O'Neill against W. D. Matthews et al reached the supreme court this afternoon from Holt county. The defendants include the Wyoming-Pacific Improvement company, the Nebraska & Western Railroad company, the Pacific Town Site company, the Thompson-Houston Electric company, Remington, Johnson & Co., and the Manhattan Trust company. Despite the imposing array of defendants, the case is comparatively an unimportant one, involving some promissory notes to the amount of $10,000.
There is a fair prospect that the Nebraska Savings bank of Lincoln will not be permanently closed and its affairs wound up by a receiver. Following the example set by the stockholders of the American State bank at Beatrice, the stockholders of the Nebraska Savings bank have signified their willingness to give a bond for $150,000, conditioned upon an agreement to pay the depositors and creditors in full within a specified time. Chief Justice Maxwell has given the stockholders ten days in which to file the bond.
Phelps county contributed to the supreme court docket this afternoon the case of William E. Hymor against Guy Crandall et al.
Master Taylor's July report shows 117 cars weighed during the month and receipts amounting to $5,361.35. The indebtedness of the department increased from $1,013.55 to $1,753.00.
The total assessed valuation of all real and personal property in Nebraska, as shown by the official statements from every county in the state, is $104,733,134. The state will raise on the general fund about $250,000.
The Platt Center Land, Loan and Building association today notified the secretary of state of its determination to go into voluntary liquidation.
Superintendent Mallallion of the State Industrial school at Kearney was at the state house this forenoon.
From the County Court:
J. H. Dover, the man who made a written orderly conduct, Burt Howard, the official school runner who attempted to install a young woman in the house as his wife, was discharged this morning for want of prosecution. John Wilcholow and Tom Hogan, the two men arrested yesterday for entering Mrs. Lane's residence, were this afternoon sentenced to forty-five days each in the county jail for vagrancy.
C. J. Strong, the young man who occupied a room in the Draper lodging house with a girl named Ella Stanley, was this morning fined $10.60. The girl escaped with a fine of $18.20, which she paid, but for lack of the wherewithal to cash it, Strong was commanded back to the cell which he has already occupied for several days.
Frank Shooly, the youthful crook who robbed a B. & M. engineer of a gold watch and afterwards sold it to a disinterested party, was this morning released from the city jail. His father is an engineer running the B. & M. between Kearney and Aurora and he came to Lincoln this morning, paid his son's fine, settled all the costs, and reimbursed the man who had bought the stolen watch. The boy returned home with his parents.
Lincoln in the District:
The Lincoln packing houses have not shut down on account of the slump in the pork market at Chicago several days since, but they are still receiving small consignments of hogs.
C. C. Burr has applied to the district court for an order compelling the sheriff to levy upon a piece of land held by Mrs. Nelson Westover. Burr has a judgment against Westover for $1000 which he is unable to collect. He alleges that Westover placed his property in his wife's name for the purpose of defrauding him.
Carl Plöger, the man charged with a criminal assault upon the 10-year-old daughter of Mr. Gallagher, was this afternoon taken to the district court in the sum of $500.
Several prominent Republicans and Independents held a meeting at Hotel Lincoln last evening to discuss informally the propriety and advisability of nominating Chief Justice Maxwell for Judge of the supreme court by petition. The proposition further contemplates the endorsement of the Judge's candidacy by the independent state convention.
Cattle thieves captured:

MANUAL OF LINCOLN CIVIL LIST.
J. U. Carpenter's Little Son Fatally Injured
Under a Motor Car.
LINCOLN, Aug. 3. [Special Telegram to
THE BEE.] The electric motor claimed another victim this evening in the person of little Freddie Harper, the 18-months-old child of Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Harper, temporarily residing with F. M. Collard at 94 G street. The little one was playing in the street at the
corner of Tenth and G streets when an electric car approached from the south. Motor-man William Hull stated that the child was
playing near the track. He slowed up his
car to avoid the possibility of running
over the child, but just as he
thought all danger passed the boy
either became frightened or failed to
realize his danger, for he attempted to cross
the track immediately in front of the car.
Before the motorman could stop the car
the child was under the wheels. His leg and
arm were frightfully crushed and his skull
fractured, several physicians are in attendance, and while there is a chance that
the boy may recover they say that the odds
are against him.
Two Hastings' Illustrations.
HASTINGS, Aug. 8. [Special Telegram to
THE BEE.] This evening the residence of
George Johnson, in the extreme northern
part of the city, took fire from a defective
oven, and on account of its inaccessibility,
almost destroyed before the arrival of the
fire department. The building was so damaged that the loss will be total $1530; insured in the German of Fremont.
Prompt work of the fire department alone
saved Oliver's lumber yard from being the
scene of a bad conflagration at noon.
Gage County Republicans.
Aug. 3. [Special Telegram to
THE BEE.] The Gage county republican
central committee met at the supervisors
room in the court house this afternoon. It
was decided to hold the county convention

the primaries beginning Thursday before.
The meeting was harmonious and evidently
satisfactory to all present. The total number of delegates to the convention will be 104,
of which Beatrice will have fifty.
Stood Oil-Two Highwaysmen.
HASTINGS, Aug. 8. [Special Telegram to

revolver from his pocket and influenced
them to retire empty-handed.
Want Garnoau Unmoved.
HASTINGS, Aug. 8. [Special Telegram to

Courtland Reach Bronchos.
Great preparations are being made by the
Gribbles and the Zelpos in anticipation of
the "new sister act" about to be introduced by
them. The two aerialist families have been
busy completing their new balloon, which is,
so Mr. Gribble says, more than twice the
size of the balloon that has been used at
Courtland beach. Estella Gribble and Jessie
Zelos are both to go up in separate parachutes attached to this new balloon and at a
given signal they will cut their respective
chutes and begin the great race to earth,
which they claim will be one of the "most
taking aerial exhibitions ever before the
public. The finishing touches are being
put on two new costumes which go
to complete the exhibition. It
gold spangles, white blouses and
red jackets, one of green and the other of
purple satin, will make attractive costumes
when used with modest black tights, they
will certainly have them. That these balloonists will have a great attraction there is
little doubt when it is considered that they
also have a "dog aeronaut" and can make
single, double, or triple ascensions and parachute drops.
The Order of the World had a picnic
yesterday at the beach, A large crowd was
in attendance and everybody apparently had
a good time.
The bath house is now supplied with bathing
caps for ladies,
The switchback contains 40,000 feet of
lumber and cost between $5,000 and $6,000.
It is the best finished of any west of Chicago and Is 455 feet long. Lincoln has one
300 feet, while the one in Sioux City is 450
feet. Manager Gribble is the sole agent
for the switchback railway patents, all of
which are owned by the inventor, a of St.
Thomas in the east.
Fully 5,000 people were out at the beach
last night. mh
Manager Griffiths remained at the beach
the entire night Tuesday in order to be on
hand early the next morning to hunt
pheasants. He put in his time hunting. am
Courtland beach now has fire protection,
The new steam force pump, located in the
engine room of the carousel, forcing water
to a height of seventy to eighty feet through
the fire hose.
Many inquiries are nightly made as to the
cause of the electric light flickering, which
takes place with regularity. The source of
supply comes from the trolley wire of the East
Omaha motor line, outside the entrance to
the beach enclosure, that in turn being supplied by the power house at
Nineteenth and Nicholas streets. Next season
an electric light plant within the beach
enclosure will do away with the trouble now
experienced.
Special Telegram to The Bee. The campfire last evening was splendidly attended, General Hanback, General Church, and Hon. Church Howe delivered the principal speeches. Church Howe stated in hisoration that the only way to right the pension wrongs was for the people to elect congressmen that were friends to the old flag; that the pension commissioner could not be blamed for his notions as he had served as a true soldier the war through and could only execute the orders issued by President Cleveland and Secretary Smith.
At 5:30: came the sound of reveilles from camp headquarters. The partially dressed guards issued from their tents and breakfast and fatigue duties were quickly disposed of. The crowd had already commenced to assemble. Battalion drill was next in order. The movements were perfectly executed and nothing attracted more admiration than the appearance of the companies. At 8:30: the grand parade was commenced, headed by Commanders Adams and Gage with their staffs. After them came the First regiment band, company II, First regiment, company O, First regiment, company D, Second regiment, company G, First regiment, Wymore battery A, and a martial band brought up the roar.
Upon their return to the grounds they were received by Lieutenant Governor Majors, General Thayer, Colonel Jones, Colonel Corral, Hon. Church Howe, General Grosvenor, and Colonel Adams. This having made was the perfection of military accuracy and was viewed by fully 1,500 people.
Among this morning's arrivals were General C. J. Dilworth, past department commander, and Colonel King of Kansas. The latter delivered an eloquent and stirring address. After this, battery A executed a drill with remarkable rapidity on the parade grounds before headquarters tent and welcomed Lieutenant Governor Majors with a rousing salute of thirteen guns.
War Times ReCALLED.
At 1:15: the speakers were escorted to the stand by the First Regiment band and General Low Hanback as chairman of the day took charge. Soon all the seats were filled and the old soldiers crowded around the stand. Comrade Doran, before leading the audience in singing "Marching Through Georgia," spoke a few appropriate remarks in regard to the bravery of the Nebraska volunteers and their commander, and introduced General Thayer. As he arose the boys gave him three hearty cheers and a tiger.
Years have lightly touched the general, and his words of living fire and rousing enthusiasm carried the boys back to the years of 1861-1865, when he led his 1,000 men on to victory at Donaldson, Shiloh, Vicksburg, and other battlefields not to be forgotten; and while he did not verge upon politics, nothing could have been more to the point than the earnestness and impressiveness of his ideas of the government's debt to the old soldiers.
Lieutenant Governor Majors was then introduced by General Hanback, with a few witty remarks in regard to his last week's fishing trip. His first words were: "I thank God I never went fishing on Memorial day," and were heartily cheered by the audience. His resonant voice penetrated the heart of every soldier, as he told them what they merited, and that what seemed to be the prevalent feeling today could not last forever.
General Dilworth was next introduced. He most heartily endorsed the views of the previous speakers, for he declared that in the time of their need the boys had been prompt to come forward, and not only those who were disabled, but all who fought, should be pensioned, as they most richly deserved. The exercises closed with another patriotic song.
Dress parade by national guards was fully appreciated by the large crowd.
The great sham battle will take place tomorrow afternoon. John J. Ingalls will address the crowd at the campfire.
HAD THE THOUGHT BE UNPUBLISHED.
Review of the Work of the Chicago Silver Convention.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3 Now that the silver convention is over an analysis of what it has accomplished is not amiss.
There were statements prior to the convention that the silver men were "on the run," and that they would never go so far as to pass resolutions demanding of Congress the free coinage of silver at any ratio. It was said that they would mildly protest against the repeal of the so-called Sherman law, and finally that they saw it was sheer folly for them to resist the tremendous pressure which public sentiment was bringing to bear upon members of Congress for the wiping from the statute books of all legislation in favor of silver. But were these prognostications fulfilled?
If the resolutions adopted yesterday count for anything they are certainly wide of the mark. Senator Stewart was quoted in Washington specials when he left that city to the effect that he was coming to Chicago to enter a protest against the repeal of the law, but that he did not expect Congress would pay any attention to the demands made here. "The Sherman law will be repealed," he said, "without a substitute of any sort. The result will be an increase of the panicky condition in financial affairs and finally the passage of a free coinage law as the only means of restoring confidence. That is in the future, however."
"The resolutions adopted yesterday," said a prominent silver man, "show that we do not propose to take the part of a subservient menial. We have rights which we will maintain to the very last ditch. As stated by Senator Allen, 'we will stay in Washington until the crack of doom.' "
Does that look as though the silver men were on the run?
As soon as the clans gathered on Monday morning and evening it was seen that a large majority of the delegates were not only silver men, but also members of the party which gave the two old parties a bad scare last fall - the populists. During the last two years these amateur politicians have gained considerable experience; in fact, they have acquired almost as much ability as political wirepullers as the adherents of the old parties. When they reached the battle ground they immediately set to work at their old trick of attempting to "split" the two senior organizations "up the back." They caucused with silver leaders all Monday and Monday night as to who should be selected as chairman of the convention. General Warner could have had the chairmanship had he wanted it; so could any silver man, as well as any prominent populist, but that was not their lay. The selection of one of their own party would do them no good. The question was how best to defeat the enemy. They therefore reached the conclusion that to select a prominent leader in either of the old parties would about accomplish the end desired. First Senator Reagan of Texas was thought to be a good man, and it had almost been decided to select him, but the thought occurred to them that some parts of the southern democracy were already in a state of disintegration, so that it might not, perhaps, be the best move. So they cast about for a more available man and one more holy to do more harm to the other following. The predominant one was called to Thurman of the "Old Roman," the old hard money leader. Thurman was approached, and, being the son of his father, what could he do but accept. When he mounted the platform Tuesday morning to address the silver convention he gave one of these red-hot free silver speeches which only a silver man can do.
The people's party, therefore, scored once more, and the work of decimating the ranks of the old parties goes on. So the populist leaders think, anyway.
The claim that the election of and acceptance of Thurman will create disaffection in the party, and propose to profit by the deal.

Special Telegram to The Bee. The campfire last evening was splendidly attended, General Hanback, General Church, and Hon. Church Howe delivered the principal speeches. Church Howe stated in his oration that the only way to right the pension wrongs was for the people to elect congressmen that were friends to the old flag; that the pension commissioner could not be blamed for his notions as he had served as a true soldier the war through and could only execute the orders issued by President Cleveland and Secretary Smith.
At 5:30: came the sound of reveilles from camp headquarters. The partially dressed guards issued from their tents and breakfast and fatigue duties were quickly disposed of. The crowd had already commenced to assemble. Battalion drill was next in order. The movements were perfectly executed and nothing attracted more admiration than the appearance of the companies. At 8:30: the grand parade was commenced, headed by Commanders Adams and Gage with their staffs. After them came the First regiment band, company II, First regiment, company O, First regiment, company D, Second regiment, company G, First regiment, Wymore battery A, and a martial band brought up the roar.
Upon their return to the grounds they were received by Lieutenant Governor Majors, General Thayer, Colonel Jones, Colonel Corral, Hon. Church Howe, General Grosvenor, and Colonel Adams. This having made was the perfection of military accuracy and was viewed by fully 1,500 people.
Among this morning's arrivals were General C. J. Dilworth, past department commander, and Colonel King of Kansas. The latter delivered an eloquent and stirring address. After this, battery A executed a drill with remarkable rapidity on the parade grounds before headquarters tent and welcomed Lieutenant Governor Majors with a rousing salute of thirteen guns.
War Times ReCALLED.
At 1:15: the speakers were escorted to the stand by the First Regiment band and General Low Hanback as chairman of the day took charge. Soon all the seats were filled and the old soldiers crowded around the stand. Comrade Doran, before leading the audience in singing "Marching Through Georgia," spoke a few appropriate remarks in regard to the bravery of the Nebraska volunteers and their commander, and introduced General Thayer. As he arose the boys gave him three hearty cheers and a tiger.
Years have lightly touched the general, and his words of living fire and rousing enthusiasm carried the boys back to the years of 1861-1865, when he led his 1,000 men on to victory at Donaldson, Shiloh, Vicksburg, and other battlefields not to be forgotten; and while he did not verge upon politics, nothing could have been more to the point than the earnestness and impressiveness of his ideas of the government's debt to the old soldiers.
Lieutenant Governor Majors was then introduced by General Hanback, with a few witty remarks in regard to his last week's fishing trip. His first words were: "I thank God I never went fishing on Memorial day," and were heartily cheered by the audience. His resonant voice penetrated the heart of every soldier, as he told them what they merited, and that what seemed to be the prevalent feeling today could not last forever.
General Dilworth was next introduced. He most heartily endorsed the views of the previous speakers, for he declared that in the time of their need the boys had been prompt to come forward, and not only those who were disabled, but all who fought, should be pensioned, as they most richly deserved. The exercises closed with another patriotic song.
Dress parade by national guards was fully appreciated by the large crowd.
The great sham battle will take place tomorrow afternoon. John J. Ingalls will address the crowd at the campfire.

Review of the Work of the Chicago Silver Convention.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3 Now that the silver convention is over an analysis of what it has accomplished is not amiss.
There were statements prior to the convention that the silver men were "on the run," and that they would never go so far as to pass resolutions demanding of Congress the free coinage of silver at any ratio. It was said that they would mildly protest against the repeal of the so-called Sherman law, and finally that they saw it was sheer folly for them to resist the tremendous pressure which public sentiment was bringing to bear upon members of Congress for the wiping from the statute books of all legislation in favor of silver. But were these prognostications fulfilled?
If the resolutions adopted yesterday count for anything they are certainly wide of the mark. Senator Stewart was quoted in Washington specials when he left that city to the effect that he was coming to Chicago to enter a protest against the repeal of the law, but that he did not expect Congress would pay any attention to the demands made here. "The Sherman law will be repealed," he said, "without a substitute of any sort. The result will be an increase of the panicky condition in financial affairs and finally the passage of a free coinage law as the only means of restoring confidence. That is in the future, however."
"The resolutions adopted yesterday," said a prominent silver man, "show that we do not propose to take the part of a subservient menial. We have rights which we will maintain to the very last ditch. As stated by Senator Allen, 'we will stay in Washington until the crack of doom.' "
Does that look as though the silver men were on the run?
As soon as the clans gathered on Monday morning and evening it was seen that a large majority of the delegates were not only silver men, but also members of the party which gave the two old parties a bad scare last fall - the populists. During the last two years these amateur politicians have gained considerable experience; in fact, they have acquired almost as much ability as political wirepullers as the adherents of the old parties. When they reached the battle ground they immediately set to work at their old trick of attempting to "split" the two senior organizations "up the back." They caucused with silver leaders all Monday and Monday night as to who should be selected as chairman of the convention. General Warner could have had the chairmanship had he wanted it; so could any silver man, as well as any prominent populist, but that was not their lay. The selection of one of their own party would do them no good. The question was how best to defeat the enemy. They therefore reached the conclusion that to select a prominent leader in either of the old parties would about accomplish the end desired. First Senator Reagan of Texas was thought to be a good man, and it had almost been decided to select him, but the thought occurred to them that some parts of the southern democracy were already in a state of disintegration, so that it might not, perhaps, be the best move. So they cast about for a more available man and one more holy to do more harm to the other following. The predominant one was called to Thurman of the "Old Roman," the old hard money leader. Thurman was approached, and, being the son of his father, what could he do but accept. When he mounted the platform Tuesday morning to address the silver convention he gave one of these red-hot free silver speeches which only a silver man can do.
The people's party, therefore, scored once more, and the work of decimating the ranks of the old parties goes on. So the populist leaders think, anyway.
The claim that the election of and acceptance of Thurman will create disaffection in the party, and propose to profit by the deal.

DKTnorr, Aug. 3. For a long time devotees of the wheel have been looking forward to the meeting here for the first time between the two crack riders of the east and west respectively, Zimmerman and Sanger. They first came into contact on Tuesday in the one-mile open race, each being apparently afraid to test the success of the other, laying back in the bunch and watching each other like hawks. The time made was so slow that the referee declared it no race. Before this, however, Chairman Raymond remade the riot act to the men, and it showed good results.
Zimmerman was loudly applauded as he appeared in the track. Sanger, Taylor, and nine others had appeared a few minutes before without notice. A time limit of 2:40 was placed. The men were bunched at the three-quarter's mark, when Sanger shot to the front. Zimmerman accepted the challenge, and these two great riders flew down the stretch lengths in front of the field. Sanger had gained two lengths and was riding at the polo, Zimmerman six feet out. Sanger looked around at his great rival, pumped a little harder, and every inch he gained. At the distance stands each man put on all steam and the finish was terrific. The Milwaukee giant shot over the tape a length in advance of his opponent amid the wildest yells from the crowd.
It was the first real test between the two giants of the cycling path and the east had fallen before the woolly west. The time was 2:20:15. George Taylor finished third and Brown got in fourth. It was a good, clean-cut victory for Sanger, and the west cheered him wildly. Sanger wasn't in the least distressed, and, while pleased with the result, was not at all boastful. He had beaten Zimmerman in the first genuine race in which they had met and was justified in feeling gratified.
Zimmerman took his defeat good-naturedly. He said: "I am not in good shape and feel still and sore; besides, the wind in the stretch bothered me." So hard did the eastern men work to beat Sanger that all of them were upset when they got to their dressing rooms. Taylor's stomach was rebellious and he was weak.
The time by quarters was: :31; 1:16; 1:51 3-5; 2:20 4-5; last quarter, in 29 3-5. The great battle had been fought and the west was triumphant.
Coming the bicycle tournament.
CHICAGO, Aug. 5. The South Side baseball grounds, upon which is located the new bicycle track, are the scene of busy preparation for next week's bicycle tournament. The riders are arriving in squads and go immediately to work, getting their legs limbered and their wind lengthened. The track in the afternoon is populated by training men turning off mile after mile. This tournament will be marked by the use of the lightest racing wheels yet known in the history of cycle making. There seems to be no limit at which weight reductions must stop. The featherweight racing machine of two years ago would be termed a log wagon or a "state" among the models of today. Racers were at 30 and now they are 20 pounds. The 10-pound racer is a probability. Big Tuttle plants his 185 on a 22-pound racer. Lumsden rides a 21-pound racer with very small pneumatic tires. Githens has a 22-pound wheel. Cy Davis is weighted for age at 21 pounds, and to a go-cart Lilliputian Bliss carries the Sanger burden. Senior Sribor, the Mexican rider, has a 191-pound mount, and Sanger, the possible winner of the championships, allows 180 pounds to settle down upon 20 pounds of tubing and spokes. Zimmerman - usually rides with a 23-pound machine, but will come to town with one weighing 21 pounds. The flyers who were at Detroit yesterday and Tuesday, including Sanger and Zimmerman, will arrive in Chicago today.
She Captured a Mail from India.
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 3. Engineer Siarjorji of India, who is the official chief at the World's fair of the Bombay exhibit, arrived in Milwaukee last evening. He was accompanied by a pretty white lady, Miss Clara Irene Flynn, and her sister, both of Chicago. They repaired at once to the office of Justice Harrington, who not long before formed the ceremony by which the Indian agent was united to Miss Clara. They returned to Chicago this morning.
Clara Irene Flynn was a student at the post graduate and medical college and hospital, 821 West Harrison street, Chicago, during the winter and spring. Last May she finished the course of nurse and was the first post graduate turned out by the college. She left before her graduation for Cedar Rapids. She is a beautiful Irish girl, a brunette, and popular as well as good-looking. Of late Miss Flynn has been selling tickets in the East Indian bazaar on Midway Plaza at the World's fair.
Mortality Among American Cross, Dr. John S. Billings of the surgeon general's office continues in the August Forum his comparative studies of municipal sanitation in America. His figures for Washington and Baltimore offer some startling comparisons, as between the white and colored inhabitants. While the colored birth rates are higher than the white, the infantile death rates, he says, are enormously out of proportion, and the colored population would probably decrease in number in both cities but for immigration. The sanitary condition of the homes of the colored population he believes was worse in 1880 than in 1900, and wide reforms are apparently helping.
Arriving the Frontier.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 5. Judge Gillett of the Lake county circuit court was here yesterday to consult the governor. He says that the officials of Lake County, following the wishes of the governor in dealing with the Columbian club officials and prize fights, are such that warrants have been sworn out and arrests have been made.
He Was New to the Duchesne.
Harper's Bazar: "You've made a great mistake, Mr. Boniface," said the summer girl."In what respect?" asked the hotel keeper, "In your arrangements for dancing," replied the summer girl; "you've put all your energies into a bullion. It is a fine ballroom, but the stairs and piazzas are entirely too small."
"What's that got to do with it?" asked the unsophisticated hotel man.
"What has that to do with it?" echoed the summer girl. "Why, how absurd you are! Don't you know that all the fun of dancing at a summer hotel lies in sitting on the stairs or piazzas! You don't need a ballroom at all, really."
AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA

AFTER PAPILLION POSTOFFICE ROBBERS
The Men Refunded to Have Been Hiding in South Omaha Here Over Garner Killed After Sioux City-Moon and Gold.
The sale in the Union Pacific depot at Papillion was blown open on Tuesday night and $125 in cash taken. The thieves took nothing but money, although there were valuable papers and tickets in full view.
About 6 o'clock Wednesday morning three men who are supposed to be the very men who did the job showed up in an Albright saloon. They remained there for an hour drinking and having a good time. They had plenty of cash and spent it freely.
When Officer Tom Emerson of the South Omaha police force came on duty he learned of the robbery and asked of the three jolly visitors who had spent the money in the Albright saloon. He at once secured a good description of the follows and this was turned over to the Union Pacific detectives this morning. It is believed the men wanted are in Lincoln and if they are caught at least a portion of the credit for running them down should be given to Mr. Emerson.
A County Corny Trial Hero.
Mrs. Sokora, living two miles south of Albright, applied to Police Judge Fowler yesterday for a warrant for the arrest of Frank Dolozal, a South Omaha saloon keeper.
The woman claims that her daughter, Mary, while passing along Twenty-fourth street, picked up a canary bird and carried it home. A few days later, Dolozel came to her house and abused and threatened her and accused her of stealing his singer. For this reason, she wished to prosecute him for disturbing the peace.
Inasmuch as Mrs. Sokol lives in Sarpy County, the warrant could not be issued from the police court, and the judge told her if she insisted on pushing the prosecution, she would have to go to Bellevue to get a warrant. The canary bird in question is a valuable one, and is considered one of the best singers in the state. Dolozel gave $23 for it a short time ago.
The sanitary condition of South Omaha is far below what it should be, and now that the diphtheria has put in an appearance, John Salvoloy, the city garbage master, has put forth an extra effort to clean up all the back yards, alleys, and closets. His greatest difficulty, he pays, is in getting the agents of property to keep the places clean. When the tenant refuses or fails to comply with the cleaning up ordinance, Mr. Salvoloy goes after the agent. In doing so, he has now taken a few of these cases into court and will know in a day or two just how much responsibility rests upon the shoulders of the man who collects the rent.

A. Street Police.
The police got after the teamsters who are hauling macadam for the Q Street viaduct with a sharp stick yesterday morning. A number of teams are hauling and none of them have a wagon with a tight cover. As a consequence, they scattered the macadam all along the street wherever they drove, leaving the thoroughfare in a dangerous condition. The mayor notified the police to inform the men to fix their wagons and if they did not do so to place them under arrest.

It was a merry crowd of men, women, and children that boarded the motor at Twenty-fourth and N Streets yesterday morning. The occasion was the annual picnic given by the Methodist people, and the grounds selected this year were Hanscom Park.

WAR IN THE WEB.
Someone with a vivid imagination who had probably been looking upon the wine when it was red and is also apparently anticipating dire results from the utterances of Governor Walter of Colorado has been looking at the silken web of a large, fat spider that lives out on Izard Street and seems to have soon all sorts of things, with the result that he left the following at The Herald's office yesterday:
The people in the vicinity of Florence and Izard Streets were alarmed to discover on Monday that a spider had woven at the corner a Mr. Johnson's web that contains the word "war" spelled in purest white, the rest of the consequence being unintentional. The spider is a large and curious specimen, colored in the tri-colors of yellow, black, and green. The web is woven from a single hair to the corner and has attracted hundreds to the corner. The residents of that part of the city are anxiously watching to see what will be the next writing on the web.
An innocent, confiding reporter who has soon learned lots of calamity stories but never gazed upon a calamity splendor, chased himself out to the vicinity described, and found Mr. Spider doing a regular stock yards business in the fly line at the old stand, but he seemed to be surprised to learn that he had been reported as an anarchist, and at the request of the interviewer, removed himself a few inches so the newspaper man could get a look at the web and be convinced that he, the spider, was all right and pacifically inclined.
The web is a curious one, surely enough. It is one of these large-meshed affairs, with a quarter-inch fiber woven thick across its center, in the old familiar fence design - sign, but without a sign of "War" nor anything else upon it, excepting files.
BOASTED ALIVE.
Three Horses Burned to Death in a Darn Lout Evading.
At 11 o'clock last evening flames were seen bursting from a one-story frame barn in the roar of 827 Cassius street. An alarm was at once turned in from the box at Twenty-ninth and Lake streets.
Two horses and a saddle pony were in the burning barn. Before they could be rescued, they were roasted in their stalls. A act of double harness was also destroyed. The barn was soon leveled to the ground, and was a total loss.
The building and contents were the property of James C. Page, who resides at 2017 Cassius street. The total loss was $300.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL
Disagreeable Bet-Back WM Given the Wheat
Market Yeatonky.
CORN WAS CONSIDERABLY STRENGTHENED
Illrermnn Pallor * , Combined with the De
cline of ntncks In Wall Street nnd
Disappointing Cable * , Crippled
llailueie Generally.
CIIIOAOO , Aug. 3 , A disagreeable sot-back
was given the wheat market today. The
Mrst rebuff came from the suspension of
Sllvorman , n leading private banker. The
effects of this blow were moro than over
come , but In the last hour the rrmrKot
lumped again on ugly rumors about mercan
tile concern * , the failure to work round lots
of cash wheat for shipment and the light
export business reported from the seaboard.
Corn was strengthened by discouraging
crop news and tonight , compared with last
night , September wheat Is ot ( lo , corn Is
from Jfo to < S c higher , oats nro unchanged ,
lard 1s 45c higher and ribs 25c higher.
Wheat started lower anil weak and during
the first half hour sold off l ) < c from last
night's closo. Besides the Sllvorman fail
ure , the decline was duo to lower stocks Iti
Wall strcot nnd lo some disappointment In
the cables , which did not advance ns much
as many expected they would In view of the
inarp rally hero yesterday. CiaMCSE 3
The market dragged along for a tlmo ,
gradually recovering Its tone hut making no
material advanco. Towards noon Logan ,
Bchwartz-Dupeo and some ether loading
houses got a string of buying orders , and as
there was llttlo wheat for sale the effort to
fill them resulted In sharp competition.
Wheat sold up ljfc from the early docllno.
The crowd became bullish and when the
leaders were observed buying vigorously
everybody seemed to bo seized with thodcsiro
to follow suit. It was a part of the gossip
that Schwnrtz-Uupoo's buying orders were
largely from N. B. Hoam. At this point un
favorable rumors wore being circulated and
a fresh decline began. The market closed
easy at about ) < Ja from the bottom figures of
the il-iy.
Corn opened with o advance and after
selling up Jfo moro reacted % c on the Silver-
man falluro. The depression was of short
duration , as the demand soon improved on
increased buying orders coming In and the
price reacted from JJfo to % c , declined % o ,
ruled steady and the closing was from ifc to
J o from the top. The weather conditions
caused alarm among shorts and a good many
cumo In on today's upturn. The situation in
the Interior is said to be really serious , re
ports being that the crop has boon perma
nently Injured by the scvoro drouth and
every day Increases the damage.
Oats were a llttlo higher early , but cased
off. Business was mostly local.
The provision market was very quiet com
pared with its condition for three days past.
The general Impression is that the bulic of
the stocks have worked into the hands of P.
D. Armour & Co. , and that is considered a
guaranty of comparative steadiness in the
meantime. I-iml was taken to the extent of
4,000 tierces for shipment abroad. Lard was
* actively traded In.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
ICO cars ; corn , ! 550 cars ; oats , 'MO cars ; hogs ,
15,000 hoad.
Freights were slow , but offerings of boats
not largo. Itatcs to Buffalo were" from " ' "
to lJ.Cc on wheat and Ic on corn.

STOCKS AND IIONUS.
Traders on 'Clmngo I'liiyod for n Reaction
In Itiiilnoss Ycntcrdny.
New YOIIK , Aug. 8. The traders at tlio
Stock exchange played Tor a reaction on the
theory that yesterday's sharp rlso would
bring long stocks to market. Tlioy were
assisted in tliolr operations by the breaking
out of fresh troubles in banking circles In
Chicago , by the advance in the Bank of Eng
land rate of discount and tlfb higher rates
for sterling cxohango hero , and also by the
unprecedented scarcity of currcncy.for which
various premiums were paid today. The
largo Issue of clearing house certificates was
still another cause for the decline. It wns
noticeable , however , that despite the efforts
of the bears the market was comparatively
frco from excitement and that the drop in
prices was brought about at the expense of
n material incrcaso in the short interest.
At the start some stocks scored a sharp
advance , General Electric and Chicago Gas
moving up as much as 3 per cent. Subse
quently the market yielded 1 to ( % per cent ,
the latter in Chicago Gas , which foil off from
D3 to 46 % . General Electric declined 5 < per
cent to 40 ; Sugar \ % per cent to Gujjf ; Man
hattan 3J { per cent to 103'f ; Burlington &
Qulncy 3J ! per cent to 73 ; llock Island S %

Just previous to the close there was a rally
of from } to a per cent , the hitter In Bur
lington & Quincy , and speculation loft off
steady at the recovery. Taken altogether ,
the market received moro effective support
when raided than for many days past.
The Post says : In spite of the sharp ad
vance in sterling exchange , which carried demand -
mand rates today moro than lo above yester
day's forenoon prices , the Bank of England
continues to sell American gold coin. Today
$2,435,000 more was taken for export to Now
York. This may bo the last withdrawal for
the present , but the advance in the banks
minimum discount rate today was less than
had been anticipated and the simultaneous
rlso in Paris exchange on London opens the
possibility of a bencllt to us.
It is not to bo supposed that such a move
will necessarily bo immediate and heavy.
London's gold shipments for the present
week are largely anticipated , based as they
are to a considerable extent on sales of ex
change against grain purchases for future
months. The French importers may not
cheese this to anticipate their bargains ; but
it Is certain , nevertheless , that sooner or
later the exceptional inquiry for our fodder
crops will couio less from England than from
the European continent. The Bank of
Franco lias 810,000,000 moro gold tlmn It held
a year ugo , and $09,000.000 moro than it hold
In IS'Jl. ' It is therefore in that quarter that
the real supply for our future accommoda
tion rests.

Cattle Itecovor Slightly In Price Hogs
Hound Up from the Slump.
i'lnmsDAY , Aug. 3.
The demoralization of yesterday was fol
lowed by very light receipts and somewhat
improved markets. Compared with supplies
for the corresponding four days last wesk
thcro has boon an incrcaso of nearly 4,000
cattle and 1,000 shcop and a falling off of
about 10,500 hogs.
The light supply of useful cattle , to-
gothcr with reports of a steadier mar
ket in Chicago , gave the trade a little
strength , white an increased demand from
local dressed boot homos caused a slight
firming up of values at toast for the moro
desirable beef grades. Thcro was not much
activity to the trade and holders of western
grass cattle said there was no improvement
in prices paid for that class of stock. That
only n small part of Wednesday's big decline
was regained is evident from the fact that
good 1,412-lb. beov9a\ topped the market at
54 , while medium grades sold around 1.25
and J3.GO and common stuff at 1 and $3.10.
The feeling was bolter on all sides , still the
close found quito a few cattle still in first
hands.
The cow markotj today was no better than ,
ft was Wednesday except that there was a
bolter demand fort tljo stoolc. Prices were
as low as they havo' been yet , common nnd
canning cows soiling1 at from 7Sc to $1.25 and
good to cholco butchers' stock at from $1.75
to $ 'J.GO. Calves vroro perhaps a shade firmer
at from $2 to $4.25 ( but bulls were slow sale
at very mean prices- from 75c to $2.10.
There was some life to the feeder trade ,
but priceswero ycry generally in yester
day's notches. Good smootb'OSO to 1,200-lb.
stock sold at from1 J2.50'tofJ.75 , while somO
hbl-thorn' ' " ' " sold
common kndt'-hqads" down
around $1.25 to $1.75. ' Representative sales :

Hoes The recovery from Wednesday's '
bad slump promises to bo rapid If not com-
plote. 1osh receipts were the lightest
since early in April , and with a decrease in
supplies so far tills week compared with last
of nearly 11,000 , hogs , the bulls had a good
argument. There were enough stale hogs la
the yards to make the total offerings over
a.OOO hoad. Fresh meat men wautod hogs ,
and outsluo packers and butchers had good
orders. At tho' ' opijiilng packers were very
indifferent , but toward the close they were
the biggest bullsilu the yards , Cudahy espe
cially bidding high.lmt not getting a hog.
Good to cholco Vltrfht and butcher weight
hogs sold from 'fl.So early up to HBO late ,
while heavy and'mixed hogs sold largely nt
from M.05 to SJ.'J ? , , The trade was active
throughgut andi the clone was at the high
point of the day. jV&ir to good hogs sold
largely at gi.'JO and H'JS against $1 on
Wednesday and M.'JO to $5.25 a weolt ago.

prices being about from lOc to IDc higher than
.lor yesterday. Choice heavyweights sold ut
from $4.70 to 94.76 and there were several
sales ot light sorts around $0.20 , Tlio advnnco
In the latter was not ns marked as the advance
In heavyxvolglits. Considering tliu magnitude
of the supply ( there were fully 40,000 head In
the pens ) the appreciation In values , though
trilling as compared with yesterday's docllno ,
was perhaps us great as sellers hud any reason
to expect.
Prices were about ns at the close o' yester
day's market , ranging from $1 to $1.25 fur culls
to from $4 to $4.25 for choice muttons. There
was also very llttlo cnango In the lamb market
so far as prices were concerned. Thuy ran
. from $3 to $5.25 for poor u > cholco. Texas
sheep were quoted at from $1.25 to $3.75 , and

A GAME OF DRAW.

The mayor of a western town was play
ing a small game of draw in his olllno
with the city marshal , the editor , tlio
hotel keeper and a councilman , nays the
Detroit Free Press. At flrat the mayor
was in great luck , and ho piled tlio
chips up around him a foot thick , and
then ho began slipping , and before very
Ions ho had only a couple loft. The
next deal gave him a great hand and ho
wanted moro chips , but ho couldn't got
them. The ether fellows were in to
clean him out and wouldn't ' lend him n

They knew ho couldn't ' borrow on the

"Iloro , Tom , " ho said to a policeman
who was watching the game , "skip out
on the street and arrest somebody quick
and bring him horo. "
Tom skipped in about a minute , and in
about ten minutes ho was back again
with a victim.
The mayor looked the man over.
"What's the charge , Mr. Olllcor ? " ho
said , sternly.
"Drunk and disorderly , your honor.1' '
"What have you got to say ? " said the

"Guilty , your honor. "
"Ton dollars and costs , " decided the
mayor , "with costs remitted if the flno

UNCLE JOSIAU'B ' BEDTIME.
The Dear Olct Man ( lav * Himself a Tom-
por.inuo t.eoture.
Such headaches as Uncle .Toslah had 1
And such doctors ! Tholr oITorts loft the
patient worse instead of bettor. At last ,
however , a young doctor gave Aunt
Polly n proscription which , lie said ,
was sure to help , If not euro , says the
Youth's Companion.
Uncle .Tosiuh was a strict temperance
man. Not a drop of ardent spirits , as a
beverage , had passed his lips , lie was
n man llrm of .principle strong and un
yielding whore his well trained conscience -
science was concerned. The doctor's
prescription was opgnog. Aunt Polly
was to prepare nnd administer it to
Uncle Joslah at his bedtime , when sloop
would follow and the hnmlncho disap
pear.
Very grateful the remedy proved , pre
pared ! under Aunt Polly'H skillful hand.
She was generous to "a fault , and per
haps mixed a thimbleful more than the
proscribed portion of whisky in the
nightly draught.
As the heudacho was n very real fact ,
Uncle Josiah'd ' conscience did not forbid
him to give the remedy n fair trial. His
usual time for retiring was 10 o'clock.
When ho was in bed Aunt Polly carried
to him the fragrant steaming cup.
One night , about two weeks after ho
begun taking the nightly stimulant ,
Uncle Jcwiuh grow restless at about a
quarter to 10 o'clock , and said :
"Polly , I fool pretty tired ; I think I'll
go up noxv and bo ready for my medicine
and sleep. "
"Well , Joslah , it's only a quarter of
10 ; but you do look tired , and 1 will pre
pare it noxv. "
The next week , one rainy night , as the
clock struck I ) , Uncle Josiah left his old
arm-chair , a bright lire and his cheerful
wife. Ho xvas "quite tired out and would
have his nog noxv. "
"What makes you so tired tonight ,
Joslah ? "
"Well , xvorklng about the factory all
day , I suppose , Polly , " and ho drained
his nightly remedy and wont off to sleep-
One xvook later Uncle Josiah's bed
time came at quarter to 0 o'clock ! Ho
wont up stairs , but just before Aunt
Polly xvas ready for him ho called doxvn :
"Polly ! "
"Well , Josiah. "
"Don't bring up that stuff ! I'm ' com
ing doxvn. "
"Coining doxvn ! I thought you were
ready for bed ! "
"So I was , Polly , but I'm coming doxvn
to bo with you till 10 o'clock , and I shall
never take another cup of nog ! "
Ho came doxvn , fully dressed , and
added : 1
"Polly , do jou knoxv why I have been
Rolling tired so early of laUj ? It wnl
just becauio I was In n hurry for that
medicine ; and when ft man begins td
relish whisky as I have boon getting to
do there's a ncrpont lurking near ,
We'll both sit up till 10 o'clock and then r
sloop the sloop of the just. Notanothoi . - *

And ho kept his word.
A RUSTIC COMPLIMENT.
The Annoranoo of n .Sculptor Ohangeit la
When Illrntn Powers , the American
sculptor , had his studio in Washington
he employed his spare time in uarvinu
likenesses of the wild animals with
which ho had grown familiar during his '
boyhood daya among the Green moun
tains. It was at this time that ho in ml a
the flguro of the couchant panthef
which no v adorns one of the rocks on
the main driveway In Central park. Ha
was very much interested In this ptoco
of work and did not llko to be inter *
runted , says the Now York Times.
One day a raw miuntnincer from Ver
mont , who had come to Washington to
see the sights , thinking that ho must
not return without paying a visit to his
talented countryman , sauntered into tlitj
studio. Mr. Powers paid no hood ta
htm and did not ask him to sit down ,
but the Vermonter was not abashed ,
He not only remained , but ho came so
close to the sculptor as to interfere with
his work. Mr. Powers tried in various
ways to Intimate that his visitor's room
would bo vastly bolter than his company.
Still ho stayed. At last the sculptor
called the olllce boy and bade htm sweep.
As the studio had not boon visited by a
broom for a month , the cloud of dust
was almost suffocating. The Vermonter
ohokod and coughed , but did not lot go.
Ho still stood with his gaze rlvitod upon
the piece of stone that was receiving
Buch wonderful grace under the skilled
hands of the artist.
At last Mr. Powers could stand It no
longer. Turning to the eounlryman ho
said , with a savage frown : (
' 'My friend , 1 shall bo very much
obliged to you if you will pnt yourself on
the other aldo of that door. " The '
countryman began backing toward the
doorway , not once removing his oyoi
from the panther.
"All right , sir , " ho said , "I'll go , but
but geowhittlkor , what a Qiring sho'i
goln' tor makol"
"That , " said Powers , "was the most
genuine compliment I over received In
my life. What about the man well ,
what do you think ; ' 1 bogged his pardon.
He furnished me afterwards with some
of the best models I over had. "

The Secrets
of Pearline's success ? Well ,
there are several. Here are
some of them , just to prove that
its enormous growth was only
natural. First : The ar
ticle was precisely what its
makers claimed it to be ;
it has never changed
no improvement has
been found. Used for
years always alike.
_ Second : The public
was kept informed 'about Pearline. This was necessary.
With anything so new and so different from old ideas , peopl ?
had to be educated. Third : The best advertising Pearline
has ever had ( and it costs nothing ) is from every women who
has used it. She tells everyone how much it has done for her
in all kinds of washing and cleaning ; that while the cost is
nominal , she has found it to be better than anything else ,
always the same , and perfectly harmless ; and that the saving
by using cheaper imitations for a year wouldn't be enough to
pay for one ruined garment.
1' ' Peddlers and some unscrupulous grocers wijl tell yon.
L XT"O 4-1 "this is as good as" or "the same as Pearline. " IT'S
l Jt"VV dJLx FALSE Pearline is never peddled , if your grocer sends
yo7an imitation , be honestit tack. OM JAMES PVLE , New York.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL
Disagreeable Set-Back Given the Wheat Market Yeaternky.
CORN WAS CONSIDERABLY STRENGTHENED
Illness and Disappointment, Combined with the Decline of stocks in Wall Street and Disappointing Cable, Crippled Hails Generally.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3, A disagreeable set-back was given the wheat market today. The first rebuff came from the suspension of Silverman, a leading private banker. The effects of this blow were more than overcome, but in the last hour the market lumped again on ugly rumors about mercantile concerns, the failure to work round lots of cash wheat for shipment and the light export business reported from the seaboard.
Corn was strengthened by discouraging crop news and tonight, compared with last night, September wheat is off 10, corn is from 1/2 to 5c higher, oats are unchanged, lard is 45c higher and ribs 25c higher.
Wheat started lower and weak and during the first half hour sold off 10c from last night's close. Besides the Silverman failure, the decline was due to lower stocks in Wall Street and to some disappointment in the cables, which did not advance as much as many expected they would in view of the sharp rally here yesterday. The market dragged along for a time, gradually recovering its tone but making no material advance. Towards noon, Logan, Schwartz-Dupont and some other leading houses got a string of buying orders, and as there was little wheat for sale, the effort to fill them resulted in sharp competition.
Wheat sold up 1/2c from the early decline. The crowd became bullish and when the leaders were observed buying vigorously, everybody seemed to be seized with the desire to follow suit. It was a part of the gossip that Schwartz-Dupont's buying orders were largely from N.B. Heam. At this point unfavorable rumors were being circulated and a fresh decline began. The market closed easy at about 1/2c from the bottom figures of the day.
Corn opened with a slight advance and after selling up 1/2c more reacted 1/2c on the Silverman failure. The depression was of short duration, as the demand soon improved on increased buying orders coming in and the price reacted from 1/2c to 1/2c, declined 1/2c, ruled steady and the closing was from 1/2c to 1/2c from the top. The weather conditions caused alarm among shorts and a good many came in on today's upturn. The situation in the Interior is said to be really serious, reports being that the crop has been permanently injured by the severe drought and every day increases the damage.
Oats were a little higher early, but eased off. Business was mostly local.
The provision market was very quiet compared with its condition for three days past. The general impression is that the bulk of the stocks have worked into the hands of P.D. Armour & Co., and that is considered a guarantee of comparative steadiness in the meantime. Lard was actively traded in.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 1,500 cars; corn, 550 cars; oats, 250 cars; hogs, 15,000 heads.
Freights were slow, but offerings of boats were not large. Rates to Buffalo were from 20 to 25c on wheat and 1c on corn.

The butter market is lackluster. The condition of the markets which are depended upon to take the surplus stocks from the world are in such a condition that there is little encouragement for packers and retailers to extend operations, and as a rule, they are not trying to do much. The result is that the low grades of butter are decidedly lower than they were a short time ago. Fancy creamery, print, 21c; fancy creameries, solid packed, 10c; fair to good creameries, not solid packed, 16c; chocolate to fancy country, 14c-16c; fair to good country, 12c-15c; packing stock, fresh, 3c.
The market is dull and weak. The receipts are not large, or at least they would not be considered at ordinary times, but with the demand being so light, it is at the present time they are heavy enough. There are a great many poor eggs coming to market and the proportion of "seconds" is large. Dealers find it very slow work trying to dispose of their seconds, which are a drug on the market even at very low prices. The bulk of the sales of good eggs are being made at 10c-11c.
The receipts of spring chickens are not quite so large as they were a few days ago, but there is a great plenty to supply the demand. Old fowls are not plentiful and choice old hens sell quite nicely. Other kinds of poultry, as geese, ducks, etc., are out of season and are not wanted. Choice old hen, 7c-8c; old roosters, 45c; spring chickens, 10c-14c.
There are no potatoes to speak of being thinned either in or out of the city at the present time. The local growers are supplying the demand and there are few potatoes being bundled by commission houses. Choice stock on orders, 50c-65c.
Watermelons are not very plentiful and prices are accordingly firm. Cantaloupes are coming in more freely and the market is lower than it was a while time ago. There is quite a difference in the quality of cantaloupes and accordingly a wide range in prices. Watermelons, per 100, $25; cantaloupes, per crate, $13.
The business in shipping cabbage to the country appears to be about over. Occasional orders are received and filled at 13c-15c.
Stray shipments are arriving and the quality of the stock is pronounced good for this season of the year. Celery, per dozen bunches, 30c-36c.
Onions, homegrown stock is plentiful at 2c per lb.
Tomatoes, the market is still full of tomatoes and prices are low. Large receipts are anticipated for the next few days. Southern, per 4-bushel crate, 76c-80c.
Fruits: Only a few blackberries are being brought in by local growers and the berry season appears to be about at an end. There are arriving enough blueberries, but no great quantity. Strawberries, per 24-qt. case, $3; blueberries, per 5-qt. case, $1.
Apples, there are being shipped in, but the supply of homegrown stock is plentiful. Choice apples, per do., $1.03.00-$1.25; common varieties, $2.00-$2.75.
Potatoes, as already noted, this market is well supplied with California fruits and prices are low as compared with other markets. Early Crawford pears, per box, $6. $7.20-$7.30; Hartford pears, per box, $2.00-$2.25; plums, per box, $1.70-$2.00.
Lemons, the steady warm weather produces a very fair demand for lemons and all houses are doing a good steady business in them. Massachusetts, extra fancy, 50c-60c; Mossinos, per box, choice to fancy. $5.00-$6.00.

It has been possible to do some business with exporters of heavy cottons and the manufacturing trades have called with some steadiness for goods ordered.

STOCKS AND HONDS.
Traders on the Chicago Exchange looked for a Reaction in Business Yesterday.
New York, August 8. The traders at the Stock Exchange played for a reaction on the theory that yesterday's sharp rise would bring long stocks to market. They were assisted in their operations by the breaking out of fresh troubles in banking circles in Chicago, by the advance in the Bank of England rate of discount and the higher rates for sterling exchange here, and also by the unprecedented scarcity of currency for which various premiums were paid today. The large issue of clearing house certificates was still another cause for the decline. It was noticeable, however, that despite the efforts of the bears the market was comparatively free from excitement and that the drop in prices was brought about at the expense of a material increase in the short interest.
At the start some stocks scored a sharp advance, General Electric and Chicago Gas moving up as much as 3 percent. Subsequently the market yielded 1 to 2½ percent, the latter in Chicago Gas, which fell off from 53 to 46½. General Electric declined 5½ percent to 40; Sugar 3½ percent to 56½; Manhattan 3½ percent to 103½; Burlington & Quincy 3½ percent to 73; Rock Island 3½ percent to 53½; Western Union 3 percent to 75; St. Paul 3½ percent to 51½; Lackawanna 3½ percent to 138, and the remainder of the list 1 to 3 percent.
Just previous to the close there was a rally of from 1 to 2½ percent, the latter in Burlington & Quincy, and speculation left off steady at the recovery. Taken altogether, the market received more effective support when raided than for many days past.
The Post says: "In spite of the sharp advance in sterling exchange, which carried demand rates today more than 10 above yesterday's forenoon prices, the Bank of England continues to sell American gold coin. Today $2,435,000 more was taken for export to New York. This may be the last withdrawal for the present, but the advance in the bank's minimum discount rate today was less than had been anticipated and the simultaneous rise in Paris exchange on London opens the possibility of a benefit to us.
"It is not to be supposed that such a move will necessarily be immediate and heavy. London's gold shipments for the present week are largely anticipated, based as they are to a considerable extent on sales of exchange against grain purchases for future months. The French importers may not wish to anticipate their bargains; but it is certain, nevertheless, that sooner or later the exceptional inquiry for our fodder crops will come less from England than from the European continent. The Bank of France has 810,000,000 more gold than it held a year ago, and $909,000,000 more than it held in 1892. It is therefore in that quarter that the real supply for our future accommodation rests.

Cattle Recover Slightly in Price; Hogs Bound Up from the Slump.
WEDNESDAY, Aug. 3.
The demoralization of yesterday was followed by very light receipts and somewhat improved markets. Compared with supplies for the corresponding four days last week there has been an increase of nearly 4,000 cattle and 1,000 sheep and a falling off of about 10,500 hogs.
The light supply of useful cattle, together with reports of a steadier market in Chicago, gave the trade a little strength, while an increased demand from local dressed beef homes caused a slight firming up of values at toast for the more desirable beef grades. There was not much activity to the trade and holders of Western grass cattle said there was no improvement in prices paid for that class of stock. That only a small part of Wednesday's big decline was regained is evident from the fact that good 1,412-lb. beef sold at 54, while medium grades sold around $1.25 and $3.60 and common stuff at $1 and $3.10. The feeling was better on all sides, still the close found quite a few cattle still in first hands.
The cow market today was no better than it was Wednesday except that there was a better demand for the steers. Prices were as low as they have been yet, common and canning cows selling at from 75c to $1.25 and good to choice butchers' stock at from $1.75 to $3.60. Calves were perhaps a shade firmer at from $2 to $4.25 (but bulls were slow sale at very mean prices from 75c to $2.10).
There was some life to the feeder trade, but prices were very generally in yesterday's notches. Good smooth 600 to 1,200-lb. stock sold at from $2.50 to $1.75, while some high-thorn "hog down" around $1.25 to $1.75. Representative sales:

Chicago Stock Market.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3. (Special Telegram to The Journal) There was a partial revival today in the cattle trade. The several classes of buyers were well represented, and while there was no radical advance in any grade of stock, the tone of the general market was sensibly firmer. For yesterday's cut of from 20c to 60c, there was no considerable exception. There was an advance Monday in the London market of experience, and the receipts here for the expired part of this week have been 2,000 head shorter of the number received during those same time last week, but the dressed beef "ring" took advantage of the hurry in the downtown market to filch from the weak spots of countrymen who fell into their clutches from $10 per head on every bullock bought. There were about 11,000 head of fresh receipts and between 6,000 and 8,000 stale cattle. Of today's arrivals, it was estimated 6,000 were Texans. Sales of natives were largely at from $1.00 to $4.40, while from $12.60 to $13.00 took most of the westerns and from $11.76 to $13 the bulk of the Texans. Not all the cattle were sold.
The hog market was firmer than on Wednesday, buyers had partially recovered their confidence and were less inclined to "bear." They fought against any advance, but paid a moderate one nevertheless, the average of prices being about from 10c to 20c higher than yesterday. Choice heavyweights sold at from $4.70 to $4.76 and there were several sales of light sorts around $5.20, the advance in the latter was not as marked as the advance in heavies. Considering the magnitude of the supply (there were fully 40,000 head in the pens), the appreciation in values, though trivial as compared with yesterday's decline, was perhaps as great as sellers had any reason to expect. Prices were about as at the close of yesterday's market, ranging from $1 to $1.25 for culls to from $4 to $4.25 for choice muttons. There was also very little change in the lamb market so far as prices were concerned. They ran from $3 to $5.25 for poor to choice. Texas sheep were quoted at from $1.25 to $3.75, and western grass-fed at from $2 to $3.60.
Receipts: Cattle, 11,000 head; calves, 800 head; hogs, 18,000 head; sheep, 8,000 head.

A GAME OF DRAW.
The Mayor Made Rules and Swiped the Pot.
The mayor of a western town was playing a small game of draw in his office with the city marshal, the editor, the hotel keeper, and a councilman, says the Detroit Free Press. At first, the mayor was in great luck, and he piled the chips up around him a foot thick, and then he began slipping, and before very long he had only a couple left. The next deal gave him a great hand and he wanted more chips, but he couldn't get them. The other fellows were in to clean him out and wouldn't lend him a cent.
"Do Boys," he said earnestly, "will you allow me fifteen minutes in which to raise money?" They knew he couldn't borrow on the outside, so they agreed to that.
"Here, Tom," he said to a policeman who was watching the game, "skip out on the street and arrest somebody quick and bring him here."
Tom skipped in about a minute, and in about ten minutes he was back again with a victim.
The mayor looked the man over.
"What's the charge, Mr. Officer?" he said, sternly.
"Drunk and disorderly, your honor."
"What have you got to say?" said the court, addressing the prisoner.
"Guilty, your honor."
"Ten dollars and costs," decided the mayor, "with costs remitted if the fine is paid on the spot."
"Good enough, your honor," and the prisoner pulled out a tenner and rolled out of the room.
"Gentlemen," said the mayor to the company, "I have a few minutes left but, I shall not ask your further indulgence. Give me $10 worth of chips," and the mayor, with characteristic enterprise, swiped the pot.
Don't Ichlean the Guardian.
The stout man who wears a tight belt around his waist to give him an appearance of jaunty bearing, as well as to do the suspenders service, does not know what harm he is doing to himself. A famous doctor says that the wearing of a tight belt by a man, especially a stout man, is most injurious to health. It stops the circulation, and does not permit the digestive organs to operate as they should. When asked why it should be so much more injurious for a man to wear a tight belt than for a woman, who is laced up both in and out, the doctor said:
"A man and a woman can't be compared in that regard. A man uses entirely different muscles in breathing than a woman. He becomes accustomed to breathing from his abdomen, while a woman breathes almost entirely from her chest. Men had better wear loose belts and provide some other substitute for suspenders."
UNCLE JOSIAH'S BEDTIME.
The Dear Old Man gave Himself a Temperance tonic.
Such headaches as Uncle Josiah had!
And such doctors! Their efforts left the patient worse instead of better. At last, however, a young doctor gave Aunt Polly a prescription which, he said, was sure to help, if not cure, says the Youth's Companion.
Uncle Josiah was a strict temperance man. Not a drop of ardent spirits, as a beverage, had passed his lips; he was a man firm of principle, strong and unwavering where his well-trained conscience was concerned. The doctor's prescription was opium. Aunt Polly was to prepare and administer it to Uncle Josiah at his bedtime, when sleep would follow and the headache disappear.
Very grateful the remedy proved, prepared under Aunt Polly's skillful hand. She was generous to a fault, and perhaps mixed a thimbleful more than the prescribed portion of whisky in the nightly draught.
As the headache was a very real fact, Uncle Josiah's conscience did not forbid him to give the remedy a fair trial. His usual time for retiring was 10 o'clock. When he was in bed, Aunt Polly carried to him the fragrant steaming cup.
One night, about two weeks after he began taking the nightly stimulant, Uncle Josiah grew restless at about a quarter to 10 o'clock, and said: "Polly, I feel pretty tired; I think I'll go up now and be ready for my medicine and sleep."
"Well, Josiah, it's only a quarter of 10; but you do look tired, and I will prepare it now."
The next week, one rainy night, as the clock struck 10, Uncle Josiah left his old armchair, a bright fire, and his cheerful wife. He was "quite tired out and would have his noggin now."
"What makes you so tired tonight, Josiah?"
"Well, working about the factory all day, I suppose, Polly," and he drained his nightly remedy and went off to sleep.
One week later Uncle Josiah's bedtime came at quarter to 10 o'clock! He went up stairs, but just before Aunt Polly was ready for him, he called down: "Polly!"
"Well, Josiah."
"Don't bring up that stuff! I'm coming down."
"Coming down! I thought you were ready for bed!"
"So I was, Polly, but I'm coming down to be with you till 10 o'clock, and I shall never take another cup of noggin!"
He came down, fully dressed, and added: "Polly, do you know why I have been rolling tired so early of late? It was just because I was in a hurry for that medicine; and when a man begins to relish whisky as I have been getting to do, there's a serpent lurking near. We'll both sit up till 10 o'clock and then we'll sleep the sleep of the just. Not another drop shall pass my lips, Polly."
And he kept his word.
A RUSTIC COMPLIMENT.
When Hiram Powers, the American sculptor, had his studio in Washington, he employed his spare time in carving likenesses of the wild animals with which he had grown familiar during his boyhood days among the Green mountains. It was at this time that he made a figure of the couchant panther which now adorns one of the rocks on the main driveway in Central park. He was very much interested in this piece of work and did not like to be interrupted, says the New York Times.
One day a raw mountain climber from Vermont, who had come to Washington to see the sights, thinking that he must not return without paying a visit to his talented countryman, sauntered into the studio. Mr. Powers paid no heed to him and did not ask him to sit down, but the Vermont climbed so close to the sculptor as to interfere with his work. Mr. Powers tried in various ways to intimate that his visitor's company would be vastly better than his work.
Still, he stayed. At last, the sculptor called the office boy and bade him sweep. As the studio had not been visited by a broom for a month, the cloud of dust was almost suffocating. The Vermont choked and coughed, but did not let go. He still stood with his gaze riveted upon the piece of stone that was receiving such wonderful grace under the skilled hands of the artist.
At last, Mr. Powers could stand it no longer. Turning to the countryman, he said, with a savage frown:
"My friend, I shall be very much obliged to you if you will put yourself on the other side of that door."
The countryman began backing toward the doorway, not once removing his eye from the panther.
"All right, sir," he said, "I'll go, but gee, what a grilling she's going to make of me."
"That," said Powers, "was the most genuine compliment I ever received in my life. What about the man, well, what do you think; I beg his pardon. He furnished me afterwards with some of the best models I ever had."
What's in a name.
Buffalo Courier: "What is your name, sir?" the other evening inquired a hotel clerk of a guest who was asking about his room. "Horton lot," carelessly answered the man as he leaned against the counter, "but, sir, I want your name in order to look up your mail," said the clerk. "I don't want to know anything about a house and lot," replied the man rather warmly. "You asked my name, and I gave it. It is Horton-Lot."

The Secrets of Pearline's success? Well, there are several. Here are some of them, just to prove that its enormous growth was only natural. First: The article was precisely what its makers claimed it to be; it has never changed—no improvement has been found. Used for years always alike.
Second: The public was kept informed about Pearline. This was necessary. With anything so new and so different from old ideas, people had to be educated. Third: The best advertising Pearline has ever had (and it costs nothing) is from every woman who has used it. She tells everyone how much it has done for her in all kinds of washing and cleaning; that while the cost is nominal, she has found it to be better than anything else, always the same, and perfectly harmless; and that the saving by using cheaper imitations for a year wouldn't be enough to pay for one ruined garment.
Peddlers and some unscrupulous grocers will tell you, "this is as good as" or "the same as Pearline." IT'S NOT TRUE. Pearline is never peddled; if your grocer sends you an imitation, be honest, take it back. ON JAMES PEARLINE, New York.

This young ofllcor Hw the bravo Cal
viniac , an Auvergncwmighlandor , who ,
before his 30th year , Hmu won already
upon the bnttlotlold ills epaulettes as a
general of cavalry. _ l
They happened to , bo nlono in a vast
salon at ono of the old palaces in Wnr-
saw , the homo of the countess , who had
been loft n widow at 22. A largo fire
burned in the enormous fireplace of rose
marble , upon the pediment of which
the arms of Zolinskn wore finely sculp
tured.
The month of January , 1807 , the time
of this story , was remarkable , on ac
count of its severity. It is well known
that Nnpolooii ) nftor the battles tof .lona
and the overthrow of Prussia , conceived
the gigantic idea of a contlnonla'l blockade -
ado and , instead of enjoying in peace
his triumphs nnd his glory , wished to
impose by force on all Europe the effec
tive execution of his projects against
England. Fer ) that purpose ho resolved
to pursue the remnant of the Prussian
troop ? to their last intrcnchment , nnd
to go to moot the Russian armj % which
was still intact , nnd under the command
of General Bonnlngson.
"You are still mute , general , " con
tinued the countess. "Have I lost your
confidence ? "
"Pardon me , " replied Cnlviniac.
"You must excuse mo for being dreamy
and preoccupied. ' You know the cm
poror has withdrawn from mo the com
mand of my brigade for a month , bo-
causol expressed too frankly my opinion
of his indifference to the sad condition
of your unhunpy country. The emperor
has punished"mo severely and here I
am , far from my bravo soldiers. I was
quite happy in my disgrace , since it ,
gave mo the pleasure of being received
by you , in the midst of the most glorious
representatives of Polish nobility , as ori
ally , as a friend. You , the energetic
and enthusiastic patriot , have kept up
my spirits , have permitted mo the
pleasure of seeing you , of confiding in
you my cares'and dreams , of admiring
you , ot lov "
"Ahlgenorall"
' "Yes , 1 am going to say of loving you.
But am I worthy of expressing such a
sentiment , when I ought to make iI ii
strange confession ? You see mo sad I
and preoccupied , because there is in mo
a violent combat. Jam happy , intensely
happy ; yet at thesame time , in spite of
the charm which chains mo by your

and perhaps for the liberty of Poland ! "
Thu countess remained standing before -
fore ; -o general , listening eagerly to
his words , and expressing by her pas
sionate looks the admiration which this
martial ardor inspired in hor.
"I love you thus ! " , , said sho. , "No
matter how much I .may miss you , I
feel , alas ! that you ought to go. I
thank you for having given mo a day.
A day is much in these troubled times.
Yes , general , go qo where duty calls

"Thanks , countess. You understand
mo. After leaving you I wish to ren

implacable will has reduced me. I have
no right to resume my arms and rank.
To go to the emperor , to Implore his

I am forced to seek a way of resuming

some 'time , and when you reproached
mo for my silence , I was" just
making a definite resolution. I will

February 8. , 1807 , nt daybreak , the
French nnd llussian armies mot. The
troops of Bcnnlnggon covered the moun
tain'tops in front of the llttlo town of
Eyluti. The umporor rolled upon this
village , the cemetery of which ho occu
pied with theguard. . The vast plain
which sdpntatod the two camps was
gloomy and dosolato. A whlto shroud
of snow , recently fallen , entirely covered
the hard ground. The sky was gray nnd
gloomy. Tlio rays of the sun could not
penetrate the thick , frosty ntmosnhoro.
Upon the loft , a llttlo buck of Jiyluu ,
was . miMscd the cavalry of Murut. In
the ' first rank- among the dragoons of
Gonqral Grouchy , was a simple cavalier ,
sword in' hand ; without a distinctive
mark , without , a decoration , but superb
in his martial and > determined bearing.
"It was Qalvlniac.
AfUJr the scoho which wo have de
scribed the general lost no timo. Hav
ing dressed himself in the clothes of a
"countryman und crossed the plains of
Lithuania , ho presented himself for en
listment to the first colonel of dragoons
whom ho mot. Thanks to his disguise ,
ho was not recognized , und ho was soon
able to put on the greoti tunic with its
yellow enils and to take his place in the
midst of his new companions , wearing ,
like them , the white breeches , the regu
lation boots , and the helmet with an or
namental plume of black.
The battle was in progress all the
morning. About 11 o'clock the snow fell
in largo flakes , blinding the oycs of the
French , who began to waver. The oin-
poror believed that his good luck had for
saken him. He saw that a superhuman
effort must bo made. Calling Mural , ho
said :
"Well ! are you going to allow those
men to devour us ? March forward with
all your cavalry. "
At the order Murat started like a
flash , and drew up his eighty squadrons
iu battle , placing ahead the dragoons
ofGrouchy. Calvhiiae's heart beat fast ;
'at last ho was going to light as a simple
soldier : to devote himself obscurely , lost
in numbers ; to sacrifice his life , without
hope of recompense , for the love am ]
glory of his country. His thoughts trans
ported him to the salon of the palace at
Warsaw where ho had said adieu to the
Countess Zolinska. It seemed to him
that ho could hear her voice , could see
her smile. Thus encouraged , it was with
joy that ho throw himself against the
regiment of Cossacks who , with their
sabers , wore cutting down the army ol
Augereau.
The snow ceased , and ono could con
template , in all its horror , this immense
plain covered iwith1 the dead , the dying
and thO'Wounded"tlio blood making horrible
riblo spots on the white uniforms of the
French soldiers.
The meeting of the two bodies of cav
airy was terrible. Calviniac , showing
an impetuosity and an assurance whicl
astonished his comrades , struck mos
formidableblowsovorthrowingall obsta
cles. The Cossacks were soon dispersed
or rendered unfit for battle. Then the
Russians , in order to delay the victori
ous cavaliers , hurled again their bullets
and shot into the melee , without caring
for their own. Grouchy fell , his horse
having been pierced by n ball. Cal
viniac dashed in , released his general ,
who happily was not wounded , and gave
him his own horse , then , bastriding a
horse without a master , he rushed again
into the tight. At this moment Murat
and his eighty squadrons , horsomon.
dragoons , cuirassiers , charged at full
gallop into the Kussian infantry. After
along resistance and several assaults
they yielded , fleeing from all sides
terrified , bloody and seeking a refuge in
the neighboring woods. Calviniao , in
the midst of this frightful confusion ,
fought with an audacity which nothing
could stop. Each' ' blow struck , over
threw and killed. His right arm was
injured by a ball , but ho seized his
sabre in his left hand and continued his
course until the sound of the clarion
forbade his further action. The work
of this cavalry , perhaps the most
astonishing in the history of the empire ,
decided tho.victory.
The next day the emperor , in order to
honor in some apodal manner the heroic
squadrons of Murat , wished to survey the
front of this admirable company of horse
men. Grave and sombre , after a victory
so hotly disputed , ho passed , at a slow
gallop , before the soldiers , saluting the
flag lowgrod before him. Arriving op
posite the Eighth regiment of dragoons ,
he slackenqd his pace and said tj ( >
Grouchy , who followed him :
"Who is that cavalier in the first rank ,
who holds his sword in the left hand 1 ?
Ho strangely resembles Calviniac. "
"Ho is u Polish volunteer , " responded
Grouchy."Ilo was engaged several
days ugo , aqd.has fought like a lion. alI
saw _ him at work , and I do not know of
ono moro worthy a reward , "
The emperor approached the pretended -
tended Polundor.
"Well , , my bravo follow , said ho , "I
have the pleasure of congratulating you
upon your courage. Ono of my generals ,
Calviniac , recently took the liberty
of . criticising my actions. 1
have deposed him. You may
replace him. I shall have then at the :
head of my dragoons an olllcor worthy
of tliom , whom 1 consider a compatriot
and a friend. " oty
He resumed his course , followed by' '
his escort of superbly uniformed gen
erals. nlo
The days which followed this battle
were employed in removing the dead to
the shore of the Vistula near Warsaw.
They were transported on sledges across
thp vast plains , followed by flocks of
crows. Some , whom the guard would
not permit to bo moved , romnlno'l in the
convent of Eyjuu , now transformed into ,
n hospital. Among them was General
Calviniao , who was very ill with a fever. )
Ho had abused his strength. After
having fought all day , his arm in era
Hlintr , ho was still at his post of honor > :
but at night , when the excitement of
the struggle and the emotion of
triumph were somewhat calmed , hla
wound , which hud reopened , caused
him violent pain. Favor t > ot in. The
surgeons thought amputation would
bo necessary , out knowing that the
hull had not remained in the
flesh and that the bono was
not injured , they decided to wait a few
days.
Happily , a woman watched near him.
A young und beautiful Polish girl , wear
ing the graceful ejostumo of the pennants
of Ukraine , had presented herself to the
outposts , saying that she bought her
brother , a volunteer iu the cavalry of
lurnt. Tlio Countess Xollnska , for It
wan she , had n presentiment of the ro-
till of the bnttlo , nnd following her
omlnlno Instincts , she sought among the
voundod for her lovor. After a day of
vain search , worn out nnd anxious , al-
no31 doflHirnto | , she conceived the idea
if seeking shelter in the convent of the
loncdictinos. Seeing that It was oc
cupied by the wounded French , she
ittll had strength enough to search the
argu halls. Asking explanations , civing
lotnlls , she finally discovered the llttlo
room where , upon n camp-bed , was ox-
: ended , not nor brother , as she said , but
10 whom she loved inoro dearly than n
jrothor , since she had witnessed his
chivalry nnd patriotism.
The counters was not recognized by
nlvlniae. Delirium had robbed
liiin of his reason. This condition
lasted for several days , during which
his dovotcd nurse watched ever him
constantly. Finally , the , fever1 abated ,
and the surgeons dcolared that , if ho
avoided all .imprudence , recovery was
curtain.
Ono morning Calviniac , while taking
seine nourishment , regarded with at-
Lontion the young woman who served
lilm with so much devotion. Ho thought
that ho recognized her features , but her
dress puzzlou him. Ho feared that it
wns n 'dream or un hallucination. How-
over , hearing hot1 speak , ho troinblotl ,
and roinomborod tlio awoot intorvlows
nt the fireside in the palace of Warsaw.
Ho inado an effort to collcot his confused -
fused ideas , and raising himself upon
his couch , called feebly :
"Alvlsl" .
The countess , ttnablo to repress an in
stinctive movement , turned toward the
sick innn. Slio approached him ; their
eyes mot. They regarded each other a
long time , without speaking , but this
mute language told the story and joy
radiated from their fauos.
. "How came you hero ? " asked CalVin-
iae. "It is you who have cured for mo
like an angel from heaven ! It is you
who have saved'met Lot mo repeat to
you that word which you stopped on my
lips the day of my departure. Lot mo
tell you that I love you. "
Ho extended his thin , polo hand , which
Alvis took in hers.
"General , " responded she , "my con
duct is a confession that my words do
not try to dony. My life belongs to you.
Your niuno shall bo mine and your coun

When Hunk Taylor was put on trial
at Strawberry Hill for killing Steve
Brown ho pleaded guilty , says the Ana
conda Standard , and in a Httlo speech
to the crowd ho said :
"In course you'll hang mo. I expect it ,
and shall bo disappointed if you don't.
But I want it understood right now that
I hov rights. "
"What bo them rights , prisoner ? "
queried Bill Totton , who was acting as
judge.
"Waal , I want to bo hung with a now
rope. I was brought up respectable ,
and I want to die that way. Then I
want to wear a bilod shirt. I was
brought up to wear bilod shirts , and I
don't want to disgrace the fam'ly , I
want to bo shaved and to have my hair
combed and parted in tbo middle , and I
insist on Zoko Cooper lending inq his
now butos. Thorn's my rights , and I
shall insist on 'em. "
"Prisoner , hain't you jest a leotlo too
partik'lar ? " inquired the judge. "Hain't
it puttin' this 'ero camp to u good deal
of extra trouble for no real benefit ?
Whar f.ro wo goin1 to got a biled shirt ,
for instance ? "
"I dunne , but wo got to hov ono. Do
you s'poso I'm goin' ' to bring up in the
other world with this old red shirt on ?
They won't allow mo to stake a claim or
sot up a shanty. "
"How are you goin' to bo shaved when
wo hain't ' got no razor in camp ? Wo kin
furnish you some grease and a comb , but
tlmr can't ' bo no shuvin. ' "
"Got to bo , " replied Hank. "I hain't
goin' over the divide lookin' like a wolf
with his winter fur on. And as fur
grease , I want rog'lar bar's ilo. I bound I
to look jest as purty as I kin. "
"Zoko , will you lend him yor butos ? "
asked the judge.
"Jfawl 1 could never fool easy in 'em '

"Then I don't ' ! "
hang retorted the pris
oner. . "Mind you , boys , I hain't dcnyin'
that I killed Steve , whom everybody

"That's ' so , that's so , " mused the

Wo had talk. '
a Wo couldn't got a

hud observed , Steve Brown was always
saying mean things aud provoking quar

discussing the pros and cons it was de
cided to overlook the olTonHo and Jot up

Nothing is moro remarkable than the
vast contrast that exists between the
nolso , the froth and the loam of politics
in France , und the quiet , silent , deter
mined way in which every enterprise
connected with trip defense of the re
public or the prosperity of its colonies is-
undertaken and carried out. One of the
most noteworthy of these , soya the Now
York Tribune , is the construction of the
harbor and fort of Tunis , which Imvo

Cockrnn is the llrst ot tlio Tammany

not to bo doublQil coinos ever from Now
York today that Cockrnn has jiiil oft
from Tnmmanv hall and will soon ho on

many men express great indignation nt
what they dosorlbo as Cookrnn's dosor-
tion. Cockrnn has not formally severed
his relations with Tammany hall and
thuro are these here from Now York
who nay that if ho clous not expulsion by
order of the hall will bo the lir.ogrnm.
It is paid that Cockrnn has boon con
sulted by President Cleveland about the
Now York nppplntiiionts , especially aa
to the appointment of the po. tmnslor of
Now York city. Prominent Tammany
men have suspected that Cockran would
withdraw from the organization or bo
forced out of it ever since the Fourth of
July , when ho wns not invited to nponk ,
while Congressman J. R. Follows was
shoved to the front.

WASHINOTON , Aug. 3. The chief in
terest in the coming congress cpntors in
the president's message , and as to Hint
no ono whoso opinion is of value claims
to have any dclinlto information. It is
true that a Now York newspaper re
cently published in double leaded col
umns what la claimed wns iv summary of
the president's ' views , hut that news
paper has a reputation for fakes , and
the publication attracted no attention
and was not oven commented upoh by
its colleagues in the city of publication ,
except in terms of derision. There are
two general views among the leading
democrats a to the character of the
president's recommondijtion. Mr. Car-
llslo is said to bo of the opinion that the
president will restrict the recommenda
tions of his mo-ihago to "the special ses
sion , to the limuioiul mid silver ques
tions only , and that he will make hla
suggestions as strong as it is possible to
make them. Mr. Crisp , on the other
hand , says frankly that in his judgment
the president will not conllno his mes
sage to silver , but that ho would hardly
fail to call attention in it to the subject
of the tariir.

LONDON , Aug. II. The question o
Turkish outrages upon Armenian Chris
tians was again brought up in the IIouso
of Commons yesterday. Sir Edward
Groy said that what little information
the foreign olllco had on the subject was
very painful. Fifty-six people have boon
arrested , and of this number suvantoon
had been condemned to death and many
of the olhors sentenced to long torins o/ /
imprisonment. Subsequently the sultun
of Turkey commuted the death Hontenea
of all but 11 vo of the prisoners. Thesu
five men liavo boon executed within tha
past two or three days. From the evi
dence that had boon given at the trials ,
it was clear that two of the men exe
cuted , and probably moro , wore innocent
of the charges nmdo against them. The
British representative in Constnntinoplo
had used his influence to convince the
Ottoman authorities that the trials wcro
unfair , but his efforts to Imvo the wrong
righted were in vain.

A VALOROUS JUMPSTEER,
"You are sober, general; you seem preoccupied, and, almost when with me. Can it bear such lack of interest?"
Thus spoke the project, Countess Zelinska, in a soft tone of reproof, accompanied by the most gracious of smiles, to a French officer sitting by her side.
This young officer, the brave Cavaliniac, an Auvergne commander, who, before his 30th year, had won already upon the battlefield his epaulettes as a general of cavalry. They happened to be alone in a vast salon at one of the old palaces in Warsaw, the home of the countess, who had been left a widow at 22. A large fire burned in the enormous fireplace of rose marble, upon the pediment of which the arms of Zelinski were finely sculptured.
The month of January, 1807, the time of this story, was remarkable, on account of its severity. It is well known that Napoleon, after the battles of Jena and the overthrow of Prussia, conceived the gigantic idea of a continuous blockade and, instead of enjoying in peace his triumphs and his glory, wished to impose by force on all Europe the effective execution of his projects against England. For that purpose, he resolved to pursue the remnant of the Prussian troops to their last stronghold, and to go to meet the Russian army, which was still intact, under the command of General Benningsen.
"You are still mute, general," continued the countess. "Have I lost your confidence?"
"Pardon me," replied Cavaliniac, "you must excuse me for being dreamy and preoccupied. You know the emperor has withdrawn from me the command of my brigade for a month, because I expressed too frankly my opinion of his indifference to the sad condition of your unhappy country. The emperor has punished me severely and here I am, far from my brave soldiers. I was quite happy in my disgrace, since it gave me the pleasure of being received by you, in the midst of the most glorious representatives of Polish nobility, as originally, as a friend. You, the energetic and enthusiastic patriot, have kept up my spirits, have permitted me the pleasure of seeing you, of confiding in you my cares and dreams, of admiring you, of loving you."
"Ahl, general!"
"Yes, I am going to say I love you. But am I worthy of expressing such a sentiment, when I ought to make a strange confession? You see me sad and preoccupied, because there is in me a violent combat. I am happy, intensely happy; yet at the same time, in spite of the charm which chains me by your side, I would like to be elsewhere. The inaction to which I am condemned crushes me. I curse the severity of my sovereign. I would like this instant to mount a horse, cross Warsaw, and rejoin the army which means to leave you, to flee from you, Beautiful eyes, in order to see face to face the horrible mustaches of the Cossacks of Benningsen."
"You are always frank, general. However, I admit this unexpected declaration has surprised me a little. After fifteen days of gloom, you become dull and disconsolate, you are homesick for the camps and your tent in the midst of the snow," said the countess.
"Permit me to explain. I heard yesterday, through a volunteer, of a concentration of troops and a preparation to accept battle. My blood boiled at the news. They are going to fight! I reflect. My brothers-in-arms are going into danger and honor. I wish to share their lot. However, when I think of you, I am cowardly. I restrain my feelings. Thus you see me here near you, as usual. But I feel that my conduct merits reproach. If you esteem me, you cannot blame me for this indecision which tortures me. You cannot advise me to remain inactive, in the midst of luxury and comfort, in a rich palace, when the dragoons whom I commanded yesterday, camping now in the snow, now marching in the mud, or crossing the Vistula by the bridge of boats, are going once more to brave the dangers of war for the glory of France and perhaps for the liberty of Poland!"
The countess remained standing before the general, listening eagerly to his words, and expressing by her passionate looks the admiration which this martial ardor inspired in her.
"I love you thus!" said she, "no matter how much I may miss you, I feel, alas! that you ought to go. I thank you for having given me a day. A day is much in these troubled times. Yes, general, go where duty calls you; resume the command of your troops, and return victorious."
"Thanks, countess. You understand me. After leaving you, I wish to render myself worthy of your noble friendship; but see to what an extreme my implacable will has reduced me. I have no right to resume my arms and rank. To go to the emperor, to implore his pardon, to seek to reinstate myself in his favor, would be a bold and useless step. The emperor has no time for audiences, and then, ought I to deny my sentiment for Poland; to retract the words which I spoke so freely? Oh no! Today more than ever. Therefore, I am forced to seek a way of resuming the service without being recognized by my superiors. I have reflected for some time, and when you reproached me for my silence, I was just making a definite resolution. I will present myself to the outpost as a Poland countryman, desirous of fighting for his country."
"Why! general, do you wish to enlist as a simple soldier? You will have THIS INSTRUMENT placed on record August 8, 1803: W. Lewis and wife to J.

Half, $1.00 a line each lunation, $1.30 a line per month. North, taking for less than $50.
Typing to rent, $10 to obey, instead of command, to march in the first ranks, to struggle hand-to-hand with the enemy. It is to certain death you voluntarily run. Oh! What have I done?
I, who have rather encouraged you in your resolutions, I, who admire you only to lose you! I was wrong. I was misled by blind patriotism, I recognize your projects. It is your duty to execute scrupulously the orders of the emperor.
"No, countess, my duty is to be where the French are exposing their lives to brave the dangers that they run."
"Even breaking your word?"
"I do not violate my oath since I enlist as a volunteer."
"You are immovable. Do therefore as you wish. My best wishes accompany you, and I will pray for you. God grant that your temerity may not be punished! Think of me sometimes."
She extended her hand, which he kissed passionately, while she turned aside her head to conceal the great tears which plowed like diamonds in her eyes.
February 8, 1807, at daybreak, the French and Russian armies met. The troops of Benningson covered the mountain tops in front of the little town of Eylau. The emperor rolled upon this village, the cemetery of which he occupied with the guard. The vast plain which separated the two camps was gloomy and desolate. A white shroud of snow, recently fallen, entirely covered the hard ground. The sky was gray and gloomy. The rays of the sun could not penetrate the thick, frosty atmosphere. Upon the left, a little buck of timber, was massed the cavalry of Murat. In the first rank, among the dragoons of General Grouchy, was a simple cavalier, sword in hand; without a distinctive mark, without a decoration, but superb in his martial and determined bearing.
It was Calviniac.
After the school which we have described, the general lost no time. Having dressed himself in the clothes of a "countryman" and crossed the plains of Lithuania, he presented himself for enlistment to the first colonel of dragoons whom he met. Thanks to his disguise, he was not recognized, and he was soon able to put on the green tunic with its yellow stripes and to take his place in the midst of his new companions, wearing, like them, the white breeches, the regulation boots, and the helmet with an ornamental plume of black.
The battle was in progress all morning. About 11 o'clock the snow fell in large flakes, blinding the eyes of the French, who began to waver. The emperor believed that his good luck had forsaken him. He saw that a superhuman effort must be made. Calling Murat, he said:
"Well! are you going to allow those men to devour us? March forward with all your cavalry."
At the order Murat started like a flash, and drew up his eighty squadrons in battle, placing ahead the dragoons of Grouchy. Calviniac's heart beat fast; at last he was going to fight as a simple soldier: to devote himself obscurely, lost in numbers; to sacrifice his life, without hope of recompense, for the love and glory of his country. His thoughts transported him to the salon of the palace at Warsaw where he had said adieu to the Countess Zolinska. It seemed to him that he could hear her voice, could see her smile. Thus encouraged, it was with joy that he threw himself against the regiment of Cossacks who, with their sabers, were cutting down the army of Augereau.
The snow ceased, and one could contemplate, in all its horror, this immense plain covered with the dead, the dying, and the wounded; the blood making horrible bloody spots on the white uniforms of the French soldiers.
The meeting of the two bodies of cavalry was terrible. Calviniac, showing an impetuosity and an assurance which astonished his comrades, struck the most formidable blows, overthrowing all obstacles. The Cossacks were soon dispersed or rendered unfit for battle. Then the Russians, in order to delay the victorious cavalry, hurled again their bullets and shot into the melee, without caring for their own. Grouchy fell, his horse having been pierced by a ball. Calviniac dashed in, released his general, who happily was not wounded, and gave him his own horse, then, astriding a horse without a master, he rushed again into the fight. At this moment Murat and his eighty squadrons, hussars, dragoons, cuirassiers, charged at full gallop into the Russian infantry. After a long resistance and several assaults, they yielded, fleeing from all sides terrified, bloody, and seeking a refuge in the neighboring woods. Calviniać, in the midst of this frightful confusion, fought with an audacity which nothing could stop. Each blow struck, overthrew and killed. His right arm was injured by a ball, but he seized his sabre in his left hand and continued his course until the sound of the clarion forbade his further action. The work of this cavalry, perhaps the most astonishing in the history of the empire, decided the victory.
The next day the emperor, in order to honor in some appropriate manner the heroic squadrons of Murat, wished to survey the front of this admirable company of horsemen. Grave and somber, after a victory so hotly disputed, he passed, at a slow gallop, before the soldiers, saluting the flag low before him. Arriving opposite the Eighth regiment of dragoons, he slackened his pace and said to Grouchy, who followed him:
"Who is that cavalier in the first rank, who holds his sword in the left hand? He strangely resembles Calviniac."
"He is a Polish volunteer," responded Grouchy. "He was engaged several days ago, and has fought like a lion. I saw him at work, and I do not know of one more worthy a reward."
The emperor approached the pretended Pole.
"Well, my bravo, I have the pleasure of congratulating you upon your courage. One of my generals, Calviniac, recently took the liberty of criticizing my actions. I have deposed him. You may replace him. I shall have then at the head of my dragoons an officer worthy of them, whom I consider a compatriot and a friend."
He resumed his course, followed by his escort of superbly uniformed generals.
The days which followed this battle were employed in removing the dead to the shore of the Vistula near Warsaw.
They were transported on sledges across the vast plains, followed by flocks of crows. Some, whom the guard would not permit to be moved, remained in the convent of Eyjuborg, now transformed into a hospital. Among them was General Calviniao, who was very ill with a fever. He had abused his strength. After having fought all day, his arm in a sling, he was still at his post of honor; but at night, when the excitement of the struggle and the emotion of triumph were somewhat calmed, his wound, which had reopened, caused him violent pain. Favorable to operation. The surgeons thought amputation would be necessary, out knowing that the flesh had not remained in the flesh and that the bone was not injured, they decided to wait a few days.
Happily, a woman watched near him. A young and beautiful Polish girl, wearing the graceful costume of the pennants of Ukraine, had presented herself to the outposts, saying that she brought her brother, a volunteer in the cavalry of Lithuania. The Countess Nollenska, for it was she, had a presentiment of the result of the battle, and following her womanly instincts, she sought among the wounded for her lover. After a day of vain search, worn out and anxious, alone in her room, she conceived the idea of seeking shelter in the convent of the dominics. Seeing that it was occupied by the wounded French, she still had strength enough to search the large halls. Asking explanations, giving information, she finally discovered the little room where, upon a camp-bed, was extended, not her brother, as she said, but the man she loved more dearly than a brother, since she had witnessed his chivalry and patriotism.
The countess was not recognized by Calviniao. Delirium had robbed him of his reason. This condition lasted for several days, during which his devoted nurse watched over him constantly. Finally, the fever abated, and the surgeons declared that, if he avoided all imprudence, recovery was certain.
One morning Calviniao, while taking his nourishment, regarded with attention the young woman who served him with so much devotion. He thought that he recognized her features, but her dress puzzled him. He feared that it was a dream or an hallucination. However, hearing her speak, he troubled, and remembered the happy hours spent in the company of the princess at the fireside in the palace of Warsaw. He made an effort to collect his confused ideas, and raising himself upon his couch, called feebly:
"Alvisa!"
The countess, able to repress an instinctive movement, turned toward the sick man. She approached him; their eyes met. They regarded each other a long time, without speaking, but this mute language told the story and joy radiated from their faces.
"How came you here?" asked Calviniao. "It is you who have cured me like an angel from heaven! It is you who have saved me. Let me repeat to you that word which you stopped on my lips the day of my departure. Let me tell you that I love you."
He extended his thin, pale hand, which Alvisa took in hers.
"General," responded she, "my conduct is a confession that my words do not lie. My life belongs to you. Your name shall be mine and your country shall be my country."

WHY BANK DIDN'T HANG.
Strawberry Hill Spoiled it Lynching InciDENT
HANGING Bank Taylor Found Himself.
When Bank Taylor was put on trial at Strawberry Hill for killing Steve Brown, he pleaded guilty, says the Anaconda Standard, and in a short speech to the crowd he said:
"In course you'll hang me. I expect it, and shall be disappointed if you don't. But I want it understood right now that I have rights."
"What are these rights, prisoner?" queried Bill Totton, who was acting as judge.
"Well, I want to be hanged with a new rope. I was brought up respectable, and I want to die that way. Then I want to wear a white shirt. I was brought up to wear white shirts, and I don't want to disgrace the family, I want to be shaved and to have my hair combed and parted in the middle, and I insist on Zoke Cooper lending me his new boots. That's my right, and I shall insist on it."
"Prisoner, aren't you just a little too particular?" inquired the judge. "Aren't we going to put this hero camp to a good deal of extra trouble for no real benefit? Where are we going to get a boiled shirt, for instance?"
"I don't know, but we've got to have one. Do you suppose I'm going to bring up in the other world with this old red shirt on? They won't allow me to stake a claim or set up a shanty."
"How are you going to be shaved when we haven't got no razor in camp? We can furnish you some grease and a comb, but there can't be no shaving."
"Got to be," replied Hank. "I ain't going over the divide looking like a wolf with his winter fur on. And as for grease, I want regular barber's soap. I hope to look just as pretty as I can."
"Zoke, will you lend him your boots?"
"Jist can never fool easy in 'em again."
"Then I don't think so!"
"Hang yourself, then," retorted the prisoner. "Mind you, boys, I am not denying that I killed Steve, whom everybody knows was a provoking, cantankerous cuss and ought to have been killed long ago, and I am not kicking as to what will follow. I'm just sticking out for my rights. Suppose any one of you was going to arrive in the other world as a tenderfoot, wouldn't you want to look your best?"
"That's so, that's so," mused the judge. "In course it'll be known that you came from Strawberry Hill, and in course we'll have a pride in fitting you out in decent shape. The prisoner will be removed while we have this talk."
We couldn't get a white shirt, a new rope, and a razor anywhere within 100 miles. And, as Hank had observed, Steve Brown was always saying mean things and provoking quarrels and wasn't of much account. After discussing the pros and cons, it was decided to overlook the offense and let up on Hank, but after telling him our decision the judge said:
"Don't do it again, Hank, it are through proving of some of the boys that you were too damned particular about the boiled shirt, and others that you were right about wanting to make a decent appearance on the other shore, and so we decided to call it off. Next time, however, we'll hang you with an iron rope and in your old duds and let you run all the chances."
"Well, boys, do it to suit yourselves and it'll suit me; caringly replied the prisoner, and court was adjourned and we returned to work.
It is shady at Burlington beach.
A frightful Public Work.
Nothing is more remarkable than the vast contrast that exists between the noise, the froth and the loam of politics in France, and the quiet, silent, determined way in which every enterprise connected with the defense of the republic or the prosperity of its colonies is undertaken and carried out. One of the most noteworthy of these, as the New York Tribune points out, is the construction of the harbor and fort of Tunis, which has just been completed by the French government. The capital of Tunis is separated from the sea by a lagoon twelve miles long, which was not even navigable for small steamers, while the port itself, La Goulette, was so shallow that passenger boats had to remain at a distance of about three-quarters of a mile from the shore. Within the short span of five years, France has entirely metamorphosed this state of affairs, and the harbor at Tunis can now accommodate two superb jetties, lighted by electricity, and moor alongside the newly constructed quays, which at present constitute the finest ornament of the city.
It is cool at Burlington beach today. Charles Cookman, the eloquent New York attorney, has become a great man for good, as Tammany Hall is about to lose a tiger. According to rumors, Cookman has repudiated Tammany's tiger, and will soon be on the deck of the administration. Tammany men express great indignation at what they describe as Cookman's desertion. Cookman has not formally severed his relations with Tammany Hall, and there are these here from New York who say that if he does not expel himself by order of the hall, he will be expelled. It is said that Cookman has been consulted by President Cleveland about the New York appointments, especially as to the appointment of the postmaster of New York City. Prominent Tammany men have suspected that Cookman would withdraw from the organization or be forced out of it ever since the Fourth of July, when he was not invited to speak, while Congressman J.R. Foley was shown to the front.
The president's message, as to the interest in the coming congress, is of no concern to anyone whose opinion is of value, as it claims to have any definite information. It is true that a New York newspaper recently published in double leaded columns what is claimed to be a summary of the president's views, but that newspaper has a reputation for fakes, and the publication attracted no attention and was not even commented upon by its colleagues in the city of publication, except in terms of derision. There are two general views among the leading democrats as to the character of the president's recommendations. Mr. Carlisle is said to be of the opinion that the president will restrict his recommendations to "the special session, to the monetary and silver questions only, and that he will make his suggestions as strong as it is possible to make them. Mr. Crisp, on the other hand, says frankly that in his judgment the president will not confine his message to silver, but that he would hardly fail to call attention in it to the subject of the tariff.
A Chinese lobby will be in hand on Monday morning. There is to be war to the knife, and it is reported that it is to be pushed in up to the hilt. The Six Companies, it is said, are backing this, and every means possible will be taken to effect the repeal of the Geary law which passed the last congress. If reports that come from the Pacific slope can be relied upon, a lobby of gigantic proportions, equaling that of the famous Credit Mobilier in 1871, when Oakes Ames said he planned a great deal of money "where it would do the most good," is to infest the coming congress with the sole purpose of getting quick action for its money and wishing from the face of the congressional record everything offensive in Chinese legislation. Inquiry at the Chinese legation elicited the fact that all seemed confident that a repeal of the Geary law will be one of the great humane acts of the Fifty-third congress.

Christians stocked by Turks.
LONDON, Aug. 11. The question of Turkish outrages upon Armenian Christians was again brought up in the House of Commons yesterday. Sir Edward Grey said that what little information the foreign office had on the subject was very painful. Fifty-six people had been arrested, and of this number six had been condemned to death and many of the others sentenced to long terms of imprisonment. Subsequently, the sultan of Turkey commuted the death sentences of all but 11 of the prisoners. These five men have been executed within the past two or three days. From the evidence that had been given at the trials, it was clear that two of the men executed, and probably more, were innocent of the charges made against them. The British representative in Constantinople had used his influence to convince the Ottoman authorities that the trials were unfair, but his efforts to right the wrong were in vain.
Fatigue and exhaustion overcome by Bromo-Seltzer. Contains no opiate.
The Dutch and Irish out in Colorado have hypnotized me and tried to rob me of my silver mines, "said J.K. Gorman, a resident of Chicago, to Police Inspector McKolvy last night. Gorman is insane and was arrested while making a speech to a street crowd. He said he had just come from the west, where he was compelled to abandon his mines and back work in the cost. He looked like a man of refinement. The police telegraphed his relatives and he was provided with a railroad ticket and sent back home. He said he had visited every city between Denver and New York trying to get away from the people who hypnotized him, but could not break them off. The inspector thinks his mind has become unbalanced through excitement over the silver flurry in the west.

"Speaking of mosquitoes," said the man on the veranda, "there were issued to some of the troops in the eastern part of the south in the course of the civil war this country, from 1861 to 1865, mosquito nets, which might be called individual notes, for they were one to a person. These nets, when set in position, were about six feet long, three feet high, and three feet wide. Tapes ran along the top edge and extended in both ends to the four corners. When the net was set up for use, these corner tapes were tied around four sticks, little corner posts, driven into the ground. It might seem somewhat amusing, the idea of issuing mosquito nets to troops engaged in actual service; they might think that men in constant danger of being bitten by cannonballs and bullets would have little fear of mosquitoes, but this would merely be the superficial view of persons not fully acquainted with the mosquito." | 30 |

in blKlit 1'ollco Hrevitles ,
At 3 o'clock jcstcrday nftcrnoon the police
Judge called up the case * against Fleming ,
Welch , Alkin and Scales , four of the mm
who were Implicated In the burglary of the
Larson tailor shop.
The complaint was read and Fleming and
Welch waived examination. Tlielr bond
was fixed nt $1GOO apiece , which amount
could not bo furnished and the prisoners
will § pcnd the rest of the summer in the
county Jail. Harvey Scales , the hackman
who huulcd the plunder away , decided lo
ptand trlnl and plead not KUilty to the charge
pf burglary. Welch was called to the stand
nnd lifter bulng told by the Judge that ho
need not criminate himself ho went ahead
nod toM his story.
Ilo said that Fleming nna Alkln proposed
the Job to him and that ho fell In with them.
He then described the work as already given
In Fleming's confession , omitting of course
his own part In the affair , except saying that
ho hclpud load the goods Into the hack.
' Ouptatn Mostyn testified as to a talk ho
had with Sonlcs. Witness said that the do-
approached him on the night In question and
told him that they had a load for him. They
drove to tiio alloy near the store and the
hack was loaded. The carriage was then
driven to Mrs. Ollmorc's houso. There
wasn't anything startling or now in the
policeman's testimony. Fleming was called'
next. Ho admitted having boon ono of the
pang and told about hiring the hack , but In-
listed that Scales did not know when ho
was hired what kind of work ho wat going
to do.
In his own behalf the defendant took the
stand and tolu about the same as already
related. Ho Insisted Hint ho did not sco the
goods piled Into or unloaded from his hack ,
as ho did not leave the box from the time ho
w.is hired until ho got back to Douglas
itrcot. The attorney for the defense asked
for a dismissal and the case was argued.
Judge Berlin reserved his decision until
today , when Alkcn's trial will como up.
Yesterday forenoon Mitch Fleming , ono of
the men implicated in the robbery of the
tailor shop , sent word to Chief Dotcctlvo
llazo that ho would llko to have a talk with
him and Hazo' had Fleming taken to a
private room ut onco. Then the prisoner
told his story of the robbery. Ho said that
31m lAlkcn told him that Larson had Just
laid in a big stock of goods and proposed
that they got a hack and carry the stuff
away. Fleming was willing nna spoke to
Buck Keith , but Buck declined to go into
the deal , so Aikcn went down town and got
Harvey Scales to agrco to use his hack.
"Humpback" Welch and William Nixon
broke into the place while Alkcn watched on
Sixteenth street for a policeman and Flem
ing on Fifteenth street. The hack stood in
the alloy near Fifteenth street. As the
bolts of cloth woro'-carrlod out Scales piled
thoai up in the hack , and then Aikcn and
Fleming climbed in on top of the goods
and ttio cnrrlaco was driven to Mrs. UI1-
moro's residence.
The crime was committed between 10 and
10UO : o'clock In the evening , during the hard
rain. All Implicated were to have au equal
share In thu spoils.
Mrs. Jennie Guillemot or Gilmore and her
lister , Eva Thompson , were also arraigned
In the police court yesterday and
charged with receiving stolen property
to the amount' ' of $750. The women waived
a preliminary examination and bail was
Qxod at $1,000 each.
Another complaint was then read to Mrs.
Gllmoro alleging the larceny of 300 worth
of diamonds from the Brunswick hotel. In
this case us in the other tl'o prisoner
waived examination and bond was lixeil at
1800. The attorney for the women said that
lie expected to arrange bonds for his clients.
These complaints will not , however , end
Mrs. Gllmoro's troubles. According to De
tective Haze the woman , while sowing ac
Mrs. Burts house , -ll'J Cuss street stele
Bilks and Jewelry valued at $00. This crime
she has confessed. Guests of the Madison
hotel are to como in for a little interest in
the ease also , for the prisoner itoeps on con
fessing as often as she is placed in the
sweat box. She admits having taken cloth
ing , jewelry and diamonds from ttio people
at that place. This afternoon Detective
Hnzo will take Mrs. Gllmoro out to her
homo and compel her to dig up the stuff
stolen from Mrs. Bun and from the Madi
son.
* In speaking about the case Chief Hnzo
said : "Mrs. Gllmoro Is , besides bcinfj a con
firmed kleptomaniac , a very cheerful and
willing prevaricator. Shu has told 1110
enough falsehoods to make a book , but be
fore she guts througti talking she generally
breaks down and confesses to some now
thoft.
The police are naturally greatly pleased to
know that the.tmvo broken up at least ono
pang of thieves who have boon working the
town for the past few months.
Mrs. Eva Thompson , sister of Mrs. Gilmore -
moro , furnished $1,000 bonds yesterday after
noon Aim WIIH given her liberty. There isn't
much hope of Airs. Gilmore being able to
furnish $1.600.bonds . and she will most likely
remain in jail until her case Is called in the
district court.

MAJOR BALCOMBE'S CASE.
Aimwor of the City Filed to Test the Clmr-
tur Provision.
Judge Wakcley and Assistant City Attortho
noy Cornish have filed tholr answer In the
case of St. A. D. Dalcombo vs the city of
Omaha.
Counsel for the defense doubts the nppolnt-
mentof Major Balcombo and acknowledges
his services as a member of the Board of
Public Works from July , 1S92 , and further
admits that the act of the legislature of
April 8 , 1SUJ , scorns to have been legally
passed and enacted , but claims admit as to
the truth of-the statements regarding the
proceedings of the two houses of the legis
lature.
Defendant further admits that on or about
April 13 , 1S93 , the mayor assumed and pre
tended to appoint plaintiff to bo street com
missioner until the lirst Tuesday in July , but
denies the right of the mayor to mako' such
appointment and claims that his acts with
reference to the said plaintiff are null and
void , and that plaintiff did not duly act as
street commissioner nor lile nor offer to file
a brfhd for the faithful performance of his
duties , and that , hence , ho aid not qualify.
Defendant further denies that salary was
due the major at ttio rate ot &i,000 per
annum , nor at any ratg exceeding $1,000 , and
admits refusing to pay plaintiff at the rate
demanded. The answei * lOses-witn the ad
mission that the city offered to pay Major
Balcombo $ S3.8'J for his services for ono
month , and declares a willingness to lot him
have Judgment for that amount and no more.

"Physically , the Union Pacific Is In ex
cellent condition"said , Comptroller Oliver
W. Minks yesterday mornlng"btit financially
wonrocotnpcllcd to retrench In every depirt-
men . Wo have mot our August Interest
and the other obligations falling duo on thnt
date , with money to spare , but so gloomy is
the outlook that our attention is wholly
directed toward cutting down expenses.
"When 1 I was m Omaha several weeks ago
things looked moro hopeful than they do
now Nebraska and portions of Kansas
prormso magnificent returns , hut the
enormous trackage of the Union
1'aclflo west of North Plaito glvos
little hope of yielding satisfactory
returns for ninety and possibly for ICO days.
The western section of this con'Uncnt Is In a
condition that
absolutely requires from us
the most nggrcsslvu attempts at retrenchn
ment. The movement of the commodities
from these western sections has completolv
stopped [ , to our great ( lotrinicnt. Our yards
are lllled with empty freight cars , our en
gines tire lying idle in the round houses , duo
to tho'comploto stagnation in business. "
"Then 5-011 hnvo rciffctied bedrock ? " inti
mated the newspaper man.
"Bedrock has been reached , " said the
financial light of the Union Pucllio system ,
a man who for fifteen years has followed Us
various fortunes , hopeful , conservative , aT1
ways on the side that a brighter day was
coming for the ton thousand nntl odd miles
ot track that stretches away to the horizon's
rim
rim."Hut
"Hut wo must have something more than
bedrock ut this time to counteract the in-
lluunccs at work. Wo will bo compelled to
reduce our forces still further nnd may pos
sibly ] have to cut salaries to meet the present
exigencies. This last is a stop which \vo will
discuss very conservatively before takine
,
but It will probably hnvo to ho considered.
Mr. Clark's well known sentiment regarding
the men in his employ will postpone this
action to the last moment , but when J.tll
other sources fail to meet the requirements
the the last resort must bo accepted as In ,
evitable.
"As to a receivership , It hasn't oven b.een
thought of. Wo ere meeting our obligations
| Jnt they fall duo. Our credit is first-class ,
and physically we are in good condition. But
there is nothing coming in. Commodities
arc not moving ; corn is not yet harvested :
wheat is practically n failure In Kansas and
Nebraska. Colorado , you know , has shut
down her silver mines nnd the country west
feels the force of the situation. These are
conditions nnd not theories that confront the
railroad man. and they must bo met.
"
"Corporations are represented to bo soul
less , but wo do know the young men In
Omaha and In Denver are not particularly
well paid , and therefore a reduction in sal
aries will bo thought only at the last mo
ment. I am hopeful that this will not bo
necessary , but in these times ono cannot tell i
what will bo needed to ineot a stressful situ
ation. ! "
While Mr. Mink did not say so. It is under
stood that an extraordinary meeting of the
board ; of directors of the Union Pacillc sys
tem has been called for next Tuesday "at
Boston , when it is thought the directors ,
after the whole situation ii oxplainejl to
them by Mr. Mink , will order a decrease in
salaries.
Following ] up the order for retrenchment
on the Union Pacific some 1,600 miles of
passenger service will bo discontinued on
Sunday , trains Ts'os. 7 and 8 between Ogdcn
and Portland being taken off. This will glvo
that largo section of country only a day ser
vice , the night service being abandoned.
As rtti example of the sombrcncss that
exists in railroad circles it is stated by a
gentleman who knows whereof ho speaks
that 150 telegraph operators have been dis
charged from the service of the Union Pa
cific.

CHICAGO , Aujr. 3. The Santa Fc will go
out of the passenger business between Chicago
cage and St. Louis. On August 10 it will
abrogate its trafllc agreement with the
Jacksonville Southeastern , which is now its
St. ( Louis end so far us Chicago is concerned.
Its intention in this respect was announced
today.
The reason for this action Is that tho.I nek- .
sonvillo Southeastern has become too heavy
a load for the Santa Fe to carry. It has not
been paying oxiionsos , ami the Santa Fo has
now to meet the deficit. Another reason for )
the stop Is that the Jacksonville lias proved
unmanageable. It has kept Its Chicago end
in a state of constant
turmoil and harrass-
mcnt , and through its rate-cutting procliv
ities it has bean the cause of several rate
wars.
Extensive reductions are to bo made In
the passenger service of the Burlington
road. Trains are to bo dispensed with
wherever this can bo done without serious
Inconvenience to the public. Three through
trains are now running dallrbotwosn Den :
ver and Chicago. Ono of these will bo done
away with and similar action will bo
taken with trains on other divisions. These
reductions have become necessary In the 30n
totcst of economy , and on account of the
falling of ! In general travel because of bard
times. The chances now under contempla
tion will go Into effect August 11) ) .
The cross earnings of the Milwaifkeo &
St. Paul road for the month of July de
creased $2G'J,000 as compared with those oDf
the sumo month last year , For the fourth

MORTUARY MATTERS.
July AVns n Tntal Month , In Omaha , ns
Klaewherr , for Children.
The report of the Board of Health for July
has been prepared. So far as the urovalcnco
of contagion is concerned the report shows
the city to bo f roe almost wholly from that.
On thu other hand , the numbar of deaths recorded -
corded Is the largest known for any ono
month. The highest number of deaths re
corded In any ono mouth of last year was
110 , while this year it. is 181. The July
mortuary record discloses the fact
that the greatest number of deaths
have been among the children , the
result of the midsummer complaints so
generally prevailing among the little ones.
During July there were reported to
the board thirty-three cases of con
tagious diseases , divided as follows , with
fatalities : Diphtheria , 5 cases and
2 deaths ; scarlctina , 3 cases and
no deaths ; typhoid fever , 1 case and 1 death ;
measles , 0 cases and ! ) deaths Of the
thirty-three cases , those not proving fatal
have recovered , and no now cases have boon
reported , which leaves the city free from
contagion of any character.
The number of burials in Omaha reached
170. Of this number 137 were recorded
deaths occuring in this city , eight prema
ture births and ilvo burials from outside.
The mortality amoug the different ages was
as follous :

forty-eight of the little ones and consump
tion of the lungs nine. Sixteen deaths

Gang of Burglars Broken Up by the Vigilance of the Officers.
FLEMING TELLS OF THE LARSEN ROBBERY
All Were Burdened Carried Out Without Complicity Mr. * . Oliver Admits that She Had Been Stealing Everytime in bright Police Revolves,
At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon the police judge called up the case against Fleming, Welch, Alkin and Scales, four of the men who were implicated in the burglary of the Larson tailor shop.
The complaint was read and Fleming and Welch waived examination. Their bond was fixed at $1500 apiece, which amount could not be furnished and the prisoners will spend the rest of the summer in the county jail. Harvey Scales, the hackman who had the plunder away, decided to stand trial and plead not guilty to the charge of burglary. Welch was called to the stand and after being told by the judge that he need not incriminate himself, he went ahead and told his story.
He said that Fleming and Alkin proposed the job to him and that he fell in with them. He then described the work as already given in Fleming's confession, omitting of course his own part in the affair, except saying that he helped load the goods into the hack.
Detective Mostyn testified as to a talk he had with Scales. Witness said that the detective approached him on the night in question and told him that they had a load for him. They drove to the alley near the store and the hack was loaded. The carriage was then driven to Mrs. Oliver's house. There wasn't anything startling or new in the policeman's testimony. Fleming was called next. He admitted having been one of the gang and told about hiring the hack, but insisted that Scales did not know when he was hired what kind of work he was going to do.
In his own behalf, the defendant took the stand and told about the same as already related. He insisted that he did not see the goods piled into or unloaded from his hack, as he did not leave the box from the time he was hired until he got back to Douglas street. The attorney for the defense asked for a dismissal and the case was argued. Judge Berlin reserved his decision until today, when Alkin's trial will come up.
Yesterday forenoon Mitch Fleming, one of the men implicated in the robbery of the tailor shop, sent word to Chief Detective Haze that he would like to have a talk with him and Haze had Fleming taken to a private room at once. Then the prisoner told his story of the robbery. He said that Alkin told him that Larson had just laid in a big stock of goods and proposed that they get a hack and carry the stuff away. Fleming was willing and spoke to Buck Keith, but Buck declined to go into the deal, so Alkin went downtown and got Harvey Scales to agree to use his hack.
"Humpback" Welch and William Nixon broke into the place while Alkin watched on Sixteenth street for a policeman and Fleming on Fifteenth street. The hack stood in the alley near Fifteenth street. As the bolts of cloth were carried out Scales piled them up in the hack, and then Alkin and Fleming climbed in on top of the goods and the carriage was driven to Mrs. Oliver's residence.
The crime was committed between 10 and 11 o'clock in the evening, during the hard rain. All implicated were to have an equal share in the spoils.
Mrs. Jennie Guillemot or Gilmore and her sister, Eva Thompson, were also arraigned in the police court yesterday and charged with receiving stolen property to the amount of $750. The women waived a preliminary examination and bail was fixed at $1,000 each.
Another complaint was then read to Mrs. Gilmore alleging the larceny of $300 worth of diamonds from the Brunswick hotel. In this case, as in the other, the prisoner waived examination and bond was fixed at $1800. The attorney for the women said that he expected to arrange bonds for his clients. These complaints will not, however, end Mrs. Gilmore's troubles. According to Detective Haze the woman, while sewing at Mrs. Burns' house, 1114 Cass street, stole silks and jewelry valued at $600. This crime she has confessed. Guests of the Madison hotel are to come in for a little interest in the case also, for the prisoner confesses on confessing as often as she is placed in the sweat box. She admits having taken clothing, jewelry, and diamonds from the people at that place. This afternoon Detective Haze will take Mrs. Gilmore out to her home and compel her to dig up the stuff stolen from Mrs. Burns and from the Madison.
In speaking about the case, Chief Haze said: "Mrs. Gilmore is, besides being a confirmed kleptomaniac, a very cheerful and willing prevaricator. She has told 100 enough falsehoods to make a book, but before she gets through talking, she generally breaks down and confesses to some new theft."
The police are naturally greatly pleased to know that the gang has been broken up at least one gang of thieves who have been working the town for the past few months.
Mrs. Eva Thompson, sister of Mrs. Gilmore, furnished $1,000 bonds yesterday afternoon and was given her liberty. There isn't much hope of Mrs. Gilmore being able to furnish $1,600 bonds, and she will most likely remain in jail until her case is called in the district court.
Condition of Finance.
Deputy Comptroller Westborg's confidence in his ability to distinguish between men of different nationalities whose only claim to distinction lies in the appendix attached to their names was severely shaken yesterday afternoon when he discovered that a city warrant in the sum of $47.90 belonging to Peder Peterson had been delivered to Peter Peterson, who could rightfully only claim $1 from the municipality. The county clerk, not possessing an indelible impression of the countenances of the two men on the tablets of his memory, was unable to furnish a description as to who was the "son" or which was Peter, the Swede, or "Pete," the Dane.
The former subject of King Oscar had only worked a few days for the city, some little time ago, when repairing the damage occasioned by washouts was made necessary, while the one formerly owing allegiance to Denmark's King Christian is a regular city employee, under direction of the park board.
The Peterson-"son" calling for his warrant received the "son's," as well as the cash thereupon, from the city treasury, making thereby a clear gain of $35.13, which, however, landed him ultimately in the city jail, while the inscription "forgery" adorned the police register opposite his name. Officer Jepson was the cause of the latter, and when first called upon to unravel the mystery in names he was a little at sea himself, but the ever guardian of the peace, after limiting his and the law's course all afternoon, solved the problem by the arrest of the right party on the corner of Thirteenth and Farnam streets at 7 o'clock last night.
Peder had only $3 upon his person, having taken a carpenter's box of liquor aboard, the cost price of which he had taken out of Peter's money.
George J. Clark, a young man who has been working for the Boston store in this city, was put in charge of a sack containing about $35 in cash yesterday morning. He immediately left the store and went to the bank side of the Missouri with visions of Lake Manawa and bullheads dangling before his eyes. The police of Council Bluffs were notified of the affair and a description was furnished. About half an hour after he left Omaha, Officer Kemp of Council Bluffs ran across him and roped him in. The Omaha authorities were notified, and during the afternoon one of the officials went over and brought the young man back with him for a trial. He did not have the money with him, but said he had it planted in Omaha. He agreed to show it to his employer.
Tomorrow in court: E.W. Kerris, the well-known hotel man, lives out on Forty-third Street near Dodge. He went home late last night and found his house brilliantly lighted. This was unusual as his family was away and he knew something was wrong. A hurried examination revealed the fact that burglars were making ready to carry everything away from the house. Mr. Kerris took in the situation at a glance and acted promptly. He summoned several nearby neighbors and made an advance upon the rear door of the house, which it had been discovered that the burglars had entered that way. The attacking party advanced rapidly and gained a position of advantage just in time to see the burglars escape down the street. Then the awful discovery was made that the front door had been open all the time, a fact of which the burglars seemed to have been well aware.
Nothing in the house was disturbed, the arrival of Mr. Kerris having been timely. Charles with Shooting Might: The case against J.H. Vickory for shooting High Eagle, near Fort Omaha on July 20, was called in police court just before noon yesterday. The defendant is charged with shooting with intent to kill. Lieutenant Wilson of the Second Infantry, at present in command of the Indian company, was in court with two witnesses and an interpreter. "White Horse" and "Dan Crow" were the witnesses; "Charles Merrilvalo," another full-blood Sioux, was brought alone as interpreter. The latter said that "High Eagle's" Indian name was Wambli Wankatuya.
Lieutenant Wilson stated that the Indian was slowly getting better, and that while the physician did not expect his patient to see entirely well, he was satisfied now that he would live for some time. The trouble in doctoring an Indian, the lieutenant said, was that while sick they always refused to talk, and that it was impossible to ascertain their feelings or exact condition.
Minor Police Mutton: Jim Boyle was arrested by Officer Fisk at Twenty-fourth and Decatur Streets Wednesday night on the charge of being drunk and insulting ladies on the streets. Jim was quiet when he was taken to the station, but after he had a short session with the police, Judge this morning he did not feel so funny.
E.A. Uyo was arrested yesterday morning for attempting to defraud the Area-Jo hotel out of a $10 bill. He squared the matter up and was allowed to depart.
Isaac Clark was fined $30 and costs for abusing his family.

MAJOR BALCOMBE'S CASE: Argument of the City Filed to Test the Charter Provision.
Judge Wakely and Assistant City Attorney George Cornish have filed their answer in the case of St. A.D. Balcombe vs the city of Omaha.
Counsel for the defense doubts the appointment of Major Balcombe and acknowledges his services as a member of the Board of Public Works from July, 1892, and further admits that the act of the legislature of April 8, 1893, seems to have been legally passed and enacted, but claims admission as to the truth of the statements regarding the proceedings of the two houses of the legislature.
Defendant further admits that on or about April 13, 1893, the mayor assumed and pretended to appoint plaintiff to be street commissioner until the first Tuesday in July, but denies the right of the mayor to make such an appointment and claims that his acts with reference to the said plaintiff are null and void, and that plaintiff did not duly act as street commissioner nor file nor offer to file a bond for the faithful performance of his duties, and that, hence, he did not qualify.
Defendant further denies that salary was due the major at the rate of $6,000 per annum, nor at any rate exceeding $1,000, and admits refusing to pay plaintiff at the rate demanded. The answer also admits the admission that the city offered to pay Major Balcombe $83.80 for his services for one month, and declares a willingness to let him have judgment for that amount and no more.

ALLEGES FRAUD: Suit of a Huston Bank against Capital National Bank of Lincoln, C.W. Mosher, E. Hurlbut, jr., H.C. Outcault and all the stockholders of the defunct bank, to recover $5,000 and interest on a note for that amount, that was given the Capital National last October by the Western Manufacturing company by Manager Hurlbut.
It is alleged that the latter concern was then insolvent, as the manager well knew, and that it was his intention to defraud the holder of the note when it fell due six months later. It is also alleged that Mosher was a party to the fraud, and that when he endorsed the note to the plaintiff he knew that the maker was insolvent. All the parties through whose hands it passed are alleged to be individually liable, and the bank stockholders are held for the action of its president.

The American Loan and Trust company is
once more in charge of its own affairs, as
Judge Dandy issued an order yesterday morning
discharging the receiver and allowing the
officers of the Institution to assume the
management which was taken out of their
hands a few weeks ago. The order was the
result of an amicable settlement which was
reached between the directors and stockholders,
the latter dismissing their suit and consenting
to have the former management resumed.
Receiver Lamoy promptly turned over the
business to President Carter. The report of
the receiver shows that the concern was
forced into liquidation by the financial
depression, and states that it is only a question
of time when the company will be able
to realize on its securities. Mr. Lamoy
appeared in court yesterday morning with a
report of what he had done, and on showing
that he had properly turned over all the
property that had been placed in his possession,
asked that his bond be discharged.
"Bedrock has been reached," Comptroller Minks of
the Overland said yesterday morning. "Physically,
the Union Pacific is in excellent condition,"
said Comptroller Oliver W. Minks yesterday morning.
"Financially, however, we are compelled to retrench
in every department. We have met our August
interest and the other obligations falling due on
that date, with money to spare, but so gloomy is
the outlook that our attention is wholly
directed toward cutting down expenses.
"When I was in Omaha several weeks ago,
things looked more hopeful than they do now.
Nebraska and portions of Kansas promise
magnificent returns, but the enormous trackage
of the Union Pacific west of North Platte gives
little hope of yielding satisfactory returns for
90 days, possibly for 100 days. The western
section of this continent is in a condition that
absolutely requires from us the most aggressive
attempts at retrenchment. The movement of
the commodities from these western sections has
completely stopped, to our great detriment.
Our yards are filled with empty freight cars,
our engines lie idle in the roundhouses, due to the
complete stagnation in business."
"Then you have reached bedrock?" intimated the
newspaper man.
"Bedrock has been reached," said the financial
light of the Union Pacific system, a man who for
fifteen years has followed its various fortunes,
hopeful, conservative, always on the side that a
brighter day was coming for the thousand and
odd miles of track that stretches away to the
horizon's rim. "But we must have something
more than bedrock at this time to counteract the
influences at work. We will be compelled to
reduce our forces still further and may possibly
have to cut salaries to meet the present exigencies.
This last is a stop which Mr. Clark's well-known
sentiment regarding the men in his employ will
postpone to the last moment, but when all other
sources fail to meet the requirements, the last
resort must be accepted as inevitable.
"As to a receivership, it hasn't even been
thought of. We are meeting our obligations
as they fall due. Our credit is first-class,
and physically we are in good condition. But
there is nothing coming in. Commodities
are not moving; corn is not yet harvested;
wheat is practically a failure in Kansas and
Nebraska. Colorado, you know, has shut down
her silver mines and the country west feels the
force of the situation. These are conditions
and not theories that confront the railroad man,
and they must be met.
"Corporations are represented to be soulless,
but we do know the young men in Omaha and in
Denver are not particularly well paid, and
therefore a reduction in salaries will be
thought only at the last moment. I am hopeful
that this will not be necessary, but in these
times one cannot tell what will be needed to
meet a stressful situation."
While Mr. Mink did not say so, it is understood
that an extraordinary meeting of the board of
directors of the Union Pacific system has been
called for next Tuesday "at Boston, when it is
thought the directors, after the whole situation is
explained to them by Mr. Mink, will order a
decrease in salaries.
Following up the order for retrenchment on the
Union Pacific, some 1,600 miles of passenger
service will be discontinued on Sunday, trains
Nos. 7 and 8 between Ogden and Portland being
taken off. This will give that large section of
country only a day service, the night service
being abandoned.
As an example of the sombreness that exists in
railroad circles, it is stated by a gentleman who
knows whereof he speaks that 150 telegraph
operators have been discharged from the service
of the Union Pacific.
WAS A TITANIC SCENARIO:
Abandonment by the Santa Fe at both ends.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3. The Santa Fe will go out of
the passenger business between Chicago and St.
Louis. On August 10 it will abrogate its traffic
agreement with the Jacksonville Southeastern,
which is now its St. Louis end so far as Chicago is
concerned. Its intention in this respect was
announced today.
The reason for this action is that the Jackson
ville Southeastern has become too heavy a load
for the Santa Fe to carry. It has not been paying
expenses, and the Santa Fe has now to meet the
deficit. Another reason for the stop is that the
Jacksonville has proved unmanageable. It has
kept its Chicago end in a state of constant
turmoil and harassment, and through its
rate-cutting proclivities it has been the cause of
several rate wars.
Extensive reductions are to be made in the
passenger service of the Burlington road.
Trains are to be dispensed with wherever this can
be done without serious inconvenience to the
public. Three through trains are now running daily
between Denver and Chicago. One of these will
be done away with and similar action will be
taken with trains on other divisions. These
reductions have become necessary in the name
of economy, and on account of the falling off in
general travel because of hard times. The
changes now under contemplation will go into
effect August 11.
The cross earnings of the Milwaukee & St. Paul
road for the month of July decreased $26,000 as
compared with those of the same month last year.
For the fourth week in the month, the decrease was
37,000. On the other hand, the estimated gross
earnings of the Rock Island for July were $1,914,
450, an increase of $600,007, as compared with the
estimated earnings for July, 1893.
I am hopeful that this brighter day is about to dawn. Stocks were appreciably higher yesterday and a sense of optimism seemed to prevail among eastern people. Then the inflow of gold gives an additional ground for hope that we may have a better condition soon.
The Rock Island, following the lead of other roads, disclosed four train crews yesterday between Council Bluffs and Fairbury.
An Infant Row in the midst of Mogul chaos.
The Rock Island, allowed for the most part, of the four other great Eastern firms, by rushing into federal court yesterday with an application for a restraining order to prevent the enforcement of the maximum rate bill. The bill was almost an exact copy of those filed in the other cases, and was filed by Hon. J.M. Woolworth, who has the fight in charge on behalf of all the roads. Samuel W. Allerton figured as the complaining stockholder of the company, but alleged that a number of others were in the same boat as himself.
The order asked for was against the officers and agents of the road and the members and secretaries of the State Board of Transportation, and it was signed by Judge Dundy as soon as presented. All of the larger roads are now arrayed on equal footing, against the bill, the last one to come in being the one which was to have enjoyed exemption from its provisions until 1893. The Pacific Short Line, which is still out in the cold, is the other of the infant roads that is exempt, and it seems to be fairly well satisfied with the situation.

Horrible Fate of a Teamster Relived in a Spasm of Mules.
Adolph Widtfeldt, a teamster in the employ of the Cady Grey Lumber company, was killed about 10 o'clock yesterday morning near Thirtieth and Dodge streets by a runaway team.
According to the statements of eyewitnesses, the team was first seen coming over the hill on Dodge street near Thirty-fourth street. The mules were on a run, and when the Thirtieth street crossing was reached, the driver was thrown onto the cross trees and the mules began to kick. One of the clevis pins had broken, letting the single tree down onto the heels of one of the mules, and this accident was the cause of the runaway.
Widtfeldt had hold on to the double trees until he was kicked off. He fell under one of the front wheels, which ran over him, and then the rear wheels threw the limp body into the gutter. The frightened animals were caught about Twenty-ninth street by Jack Moore and George Channel, two prisoners who were working on the Street gang nearby.
Dr. Ayres, the veterinary surgeon, was traveling the same road and the mules gave him a hard chase. Mr. Ayres finally turned out and let the frightened animals go by. He then went back to where the injured man lay and helped pick him up and take him to a shady spot by the side of the road. Once only did Widtfeldt try to speak. He asked for water. When he opened his lips, the blood spurted out and a moment later he was dead.
The coroner was called and had the body removed to the morgue.
The deceased was a single man about 45 years of age and boarded at 1547 Douglas street. He had been in the employ of the lumber company for nearly five years, and was considered a sober, industrious man and a careful driver.
An examination of the body showed a fracture of the skull over the right eye, where he had been kicked by one of the mules, and several bruises on his chest, where the animals had kicked him.
Coroner Maul has not yet decided when he will hold an inquest.

MORTUARY MATTERS.
July was an infant month, in Omaha, as usual, for children. The report of the Board of Health for July has been prepared. So far as the prevalence of contagion is concerned, the report shows the city to be free almost wholly from that. On the other hand, the number of deaths recorded is the largest known for any one month. The highest number of deaths recorded in any one month of last year was 110, while this year it is 181. The July mortuary record discloses the fact that the greatest number of deaths have been among the children, the result of the midsummer complaints so generally prevailing among the little ones. During July, there were reported to the board thirty-three cases of contagious diseases, divided as follows, with fatalities: Diphtheria, 5 cases and 2 deaths; scarlet fever, 3 cases and no deaths; typhoid fever, 1 case and 1 death; measles, 24 cases and 12 deaths. Of the thirty-three cases, those not proving fatal have recovered, and no new cases have been reported, which leaves the city free from contagion of any character. The number of burials in Omaha reached 170. Of this number, 137 were recorded deaths occurring in this city, eight premature births, and six burials from outside. The mortality among the different ages was as follows:
Under 1 year 70
Between 1 and 2 years: 12
Between 2 and 5 years: 11
Between 5 and 10 years: 6
Between 10 and 20 years 4
Between 20 and 30 years: 9
Between 30 and 40 years: 8
Between 40 and 50 years: 16
Between 50 and 60 years: 11
Between 60 and 70 years: 13
Between 70 and 80 years: 1
Total 181
From the above, it will be seen that out of the 157 deaths, eighty-nine were among children under 5 years of age. Cholera infantum was the cause of carrying away forty-eight of the little ones and consumption of the lungs nine. Sixteen deaths among the adults were from violent causes, such as accident, suicide, etc. The deaths are divided among the wards as follows:
First 31
Second 34
Third 8
Fourth 11
Fifth 14
Sixth 27
Seventh 13
Eighth 10

Haimcom Park Pavillon,
At the meeting of the park commission yesterday afternoon, the question of completing the Haimcom park pavilion under contract with the late B. H. MeKenna was discussed. The commissioners came to the conclusion that they had no jurisdiction further than to hold the bondsmen to the fulfillment of the contract. Judge Lake advised J. G. Callahan, one of the bondsmen who was present, to take steps to have a proper person appointed as administrator of the estate and have the administrator carry on the work.

Tim BEE. ] Tlmo brings no Improvement In
Iho condition of affairs In the mining dls-
trlcts of this state and the Indications are
that It will bo but a short tlmo until the few
silver mines which nro In operation will bo
closed down altogether , unless there Is some
speedy nnd favorable action taken at the
coming special session of congress. With
the enactment of such legislation , it Is n
question If it will como in lima to s-ivo the
country , ns It has become apparent that the
bottom has not yet been reached.
In the Lendvillo district , which Includes
the county of Lake and is known ns the
richest silver producing territory In the
world , a complete stagnation prevails , anil
scarcely a mlno is In operation. Where ono
year ago 15,000 men were employed at sala
ries ranging from $3 lo ft per day , the lotal
"number of men nt work will not exceed
200 , nnd most of thcso at reduced wages.
Ono year ago the men tn the mines , the men
in the mills , the ere haulers and the charcoal
burners were all employed and the outing
country was in a most prosperous condition. '
Now , however , the situation Is changed und
instead of men having money In their
pockets they nro begging for bread or
tramping from camp to camp In the expecta
tion of striking something in the placer
mines which have been worked and re
worked.
True of Other 1'lacen.
This will apply not only to ttio Loadvlllo
country but It will hold good In every mining
camp In the stale. Many of the men have
left the country , while a few of them , but
not many , are In Camp Hcliof In this city ,
supported by Iho charities of the people.
Tlio opinion has gene abroad that discon
tinuing work in the mines cannot seriously
effect the growth nnd prosperity of this city ,
but this is n mistaken idea , especially as it
exists. It is a well known fact that Denver
is the great dnpot of the whole of the min
ing territory of the state , nnd the whole
northwest as well. Hero are located the
great wholesale houses that sell the ma
chinery and supplies to the hundreds of mines
within a radius of a few score of miles. Hero
nro located Iho great reduction worns where
tlio crude ere Is converted into marketable
goods and then sent to the mints to bo
coined into the dollars , which arc alleged to
bo at the bottom of ull of the present trou
bles. The owners of the most of these
great stores and works uro sitting about
their doors , patiently waiting for something
to turn up and.dlspol the cloud of ruin that
hovers about them at this tlmo. While
they are trying to bollovo that
each cloud has its silver lining , they
unhosltalincly declare that the ono which is
-
now about them possesses nothing to cheer
and muko glad the heart of the man who Is
long on silver. Did this condition of affairs
extend only to the men who nro directly in
terested In mines It would not bo so serious ,
but It docs not end there , for It affects nearly
ovcry man in the state und nil of thq in
dustries , infant nn well as those of mature
years.
Tnulo Geiiornliy Stncnntoil.
This has always been a mining state , and
Its prosperity has depended exclusively upon
the output of the mines. Every merchant
In the state and ovcry trade is directly In
terested In the bullion that is dug from the
earth and , with none being dug , the whole
stnto must bo upon the brink of bankruptcy.
This is not n mere iruess , but it Is a
fact which is berne out by ttio statements -
ments of the business men and the
bankers of the city , who hold
their breath as they contemplate the
outcome of the next few months. Early in
ino
the season tunes were very prosperous hero
in the mountains und everything indicated
that this was to bo ono of the bonanza years
for Colorado , Looking at matters in that
light the merchants in the mining camps [
and tlto surrounding towns ordered very
heavily of tha wholesalers , who In turn
placed the largest orders that they ever
mado. Then the crush came and era
few days thereafter the small dealers
cancelled tholr orders , which compelled the
wholesale dealers In this city to do the samo/ '
Now iho slores are comparatively
omuty
-y.
with no immediate prospect of selling what
Blocks uro now on hand. Thcro are no
who allege that Iho action of iho irs
wus spcndy und ill advised , , but u tour
through the smaller towns fulls to sh
the proof of any evidence of prosperity. In
almost ovcry camp nothing but empty cabins ,
or minors who nro on the very verge of
poverty , meet the ga/.o , whom only a few
weeks ago the valleys were busy wllh hour
hum of Induslry ,
In tills city , only ns long ago as last Satur
day , ouch of Iho loading merchants dis
charged one-half the clerks that were llsIn
thf.lr employ , Banks have let out tholr
clerks , and the protosslonal mcn have neat
tholr stenographers to their homes.
Why Tlmy Don't flu to Funning.
The question Is frequently asked why the ;
men do not turn from mining pursuits and
engage In farming In the fertile valleys that
llo between the mountain ranges ! This > Is
easily answered by ono nf the old-timers mil
a business man of this city , who In conversa
tion today said :
"Jt ! true tlmt 5,000 of tHe minors could
go to raising wheat , corn nnd produce , but
what would they do with what they raised ?
U Is too fur to ship to Chicago , or any , 3dof
the eastern markets , and with all of
the mines idle , the product of ono
largo farm would glut the homo
market and send "prices down to1 the lowest
ebb. No , wo are silver producers , andes
therein rests the whole of our future pros
perity , With lhat wo go higher than the
clouds and with that wo go lower than the
depths of the grave , Thcro is nothing left
for issbut mines und mining. With the
mlnei closed wo are In a worse condition
than uro Uio residents of iho agricultural
itnlc * when , their clips are a tolal failure ,
as In such times
Ihoy have oilier

I'orom of Mntaurn.
APIA , Samoa ( via San Francisco ) , Aug. 4 ,
Tlio long prcdlclod war In Samoa has been
commenced und llnishod by the intorven-
tlon of the three powers putting a decisive
end to the trouble.
The first outbreak of hostilities occurred
on July 7 , when the royal forces
siarlcd to march on Mallo , Mataafa's
camp. They captured the outpost
nnd disarmed the four men In
It , after which they wcro sot at liberty.
Next day the war actually began nnd the
first blood shed. Mataa fa's loss is estimated
nt thirty killed arid twenty wounded.
Mntuafa's forces were scattered. Matin-
tea carefully planned the attack nnd
but for the accidental discharge of a gun ,
which precmltatod the conflict , Matanfa's
forces would have boon oxtorminatcd.
Mallctoa and his chiefs became Impatient
at what they considered the Indifference of
the thrco po\vrrsunddctcrmlned to take the
matter Into their own hands and the advance
upon Mallo was begun , Ono section of the
king's army was sent through the bush
with orders to spread out and connect with
the oilier sections. Below Mallo a third
section , accompanied by an armed licet of
fifteen boats , sailing close to the shore , went
along the beach. According to the plan
Mataufn was to bo hemmed In on nil sides.
The accidental discharge of a gun precipi
tated the conflict before the circle around
Mntaufa was completed.
Commencement oftho Fllit.
The followers of Mallctoa and adherents of
Mataafa mot. Botti lines extended from the
ocean beach three or four miles
into the interior. A largo detach -
ment of Mataafa's 1n
men was stationed in
the cattle yards , and us the king's men nd-
vanced the men on Mulaafa's line recognized
friends and called out cordial greetings.
Hand shakes wore indulged in and it scorned
as if friendly relations would bo re-estab
lished. Ono ferocious old warrior named
Patu , however , urged the king's men back
Into the ranks , when somebody ilred a shot ,
and the fight commenced. The firing soon
became general and deadly.
On the beach opposite the cattle yards
werupostoda number oftho king's "men.
Mataafa's men advanced to the wall and ,
were exposed to a raking flro. Another do-
tachmcntof Maliotoa's troops took advantage
of an opening in the sklo of the wall nnd
poured in repeated deadly volleys. The
Mutaulltes were forced to abandon the
stock yards and retreat to the shelter
of another slono wall a little dis
tance into the brush. Here they made
a stand nnd Mnlictoa's 10n
forces retired. When
they attacked the
place next morning >
Mataafa and his warriors had fled to Malio ,
Fifteen heads were brought in triumph
to the king , it being the custom
-nfSamoan's to decapitate all killed , or oven
wounded , enemies. Among the heads were
Ihoso of two women , but it is believed they
wcro killed by mistake , though they took an
active part in the light.
Mutuafn'i ) Kscnpr.
Mataafa and followers made their escape
in bouts to the adjoining island of Mnnono. no.a
On July 13 King Malletoa sent un ultima .
tum to Mataafa demanding that ho sur
render himself and chiefs , the solo condition
being that their lives would be spared. No
reply was made to this.
On July 10 the British man-of-war Ka- !
toomba arrived at Apia , bringing joint instructions
structions from the powers that the rebel
lion must bo subJued. The commanders BlOf
the British and German war ships and consuls
the three powers held n consultation. It was
decided to demand .Mataafa's surrender and
the British nnd German war ships ( ther ?
was no American vessel there ) sailed for
Mnnono. 1 hey arrived early on the morning
of July 18 and sent word to Matnafa that if ho
aid not surrender before 1 p. rn. his camp
would be shelled by the ships and Malictou's :
warriors landed. As
the Mataalltes ; ro
m ,
they would have been slaughtered had this
program been carried out.
rrnclunmUDi ) l > y the 1'owor * .
After Mataafa and followers had boarded
the warships the consuls of the three
powers Issued a proclamation to the Samoans
that Matuafa and his chiefs had surrendered ,
and that the war was over , concluding with
warning that any further disturbance would
bo suppressed by the men-of-war.
Malictou's army consisted of about 1,000 )
lighting men , armed with rifles , axes and
long knives. Maliotoa's army was far
superior to Mataafa's. Ho also had the ad
vantage In securing the aid of tribes which
Mataufu had counted upon to back him.
After the battle ouch man who had ; holed
luck to cut n head off an enemy marched
through the streets of Apia with It , They
walked up the strcots ynlllug like fiends ,
with oycs staring from their sockets with !
excitement and throwing the severed heads
about llko'baso balls , the blood dripping alt
over the bearers. Many heads were brought
In this manner , and , after being exhibited
about town , wcro presented to Muliatoa as
trophies of war. Mataafa lost sixteen
killed and seventeen woundodj Maliotoa's
loss was four killed and twelve wounded.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 4. )
Nntlonal Commltteoman Tobias Castor
spent some hours this morning nt the general -
oral land ofllco examining the makeup of the
land districts of Nebraska. Ho was finally
told . tlmt the department had determined to
abolish but thrco of the Nebraska land of-
flees , nnd that the only one up to this ttmo
that had been marked for obliteration from
the . land map was the ono at Blootnlngton.
All of the territory in that district will bo
attached to the McCook district.
Jt was the Inclination of the general land
onico to abolish the McCook ofllco , but a
close . examination of the conditions surround
ing that district led to the conclusion that
that ofllco must bo maintained. The other
ofllccs which nro to bo abolished llo , It Is
said j , ono on the extreme northern portion of
the state ' , nnd the other probably In the
southern section. The oftlco at Lincoln will ,
of course , bo kept open till all others are
closed. ! ? '
It was the purpose nt first , m abolishing
the several ofllcos which must go in Ne
braska , to divide the territory In as equal
manner as possible among ttio districts
which will bo maintained , but that cannot
bo done. To divide up the territory In dis
tricts whoso ofllccs nro nbolishod would ro
iiuiro a vast amount of clerical worlr In the
ofllco here , the making of now maps and the
issuance of now papers to the ofllccs re
tained. There would have to bo a general
reconstruction of all districts In the state.
SP the thrco headless districts will bo at
tached as a whole to the districts adjoining
them which can best look after their Inter
ests. . In order to decide upon n desirable
distribution of the ofllcolcss territory a new
land , map of Nebraska is being prepared.
When this Is completed , which will bo in a
few days , Mr. Castor will assist In reaching
conclusions for a redistribution of the terri
tory. Then will come the shake-up among
the land oflices of Nebraska.

It Is probable that the combination of
fellow feeling which
prevails among mem
bers of will result inon
congress In the re-election
of all the present ofliccra of the lower hotiso
of congress on next Monday. Thuro are now
In thrco of the four principal ofllccs of the
house ox-menibors of that "
, body. They are
thoelork , Bcrgennt-ut-arms and ddorkeopor.
It may also bo stated at tills point that the
secretary and sorgeaut-at-urms of tno sen
ate , who have been serving for
years under Uio republican regime ,
are ex-members of the house
General McCook and Colonel Valentino.
No sooner does n member of the house
find himself repudiated by his
con
stituency than ho turns about and
seeks an oftlco under the body in which ho
has been nerving , Some members of the
house begin , as soon us-tliey are del cu ted for
ronommation or re-election , to work up n
place for themsnlvqs in the houso. Just - as
soon as Kerr of Pennsylvania , Yoder of Ohio
and Turner of Now York were turu'od flown
in 18'JO they began to work for election us
clerk , sorgeunt-ut-arms and doorkeeper of
the house ; and they got the places and are
In them.
It is a very poor commentary upon the
metal that is In a member of congress that
ho has no higher ambition than to hold an
humble position us employe of the body Mn
which ho Is serving when lin fails of ro-elec-
tlon. It Is prlma facie evidence that ho has
no pride , no ambition and no business ut
homo.
A glunro at the records
of th two houses
of congress for the past quarter of a century
shows that moro than half of the salaries
paid to the six executive pflicors of those
two bodies have been paid to oir-membcrs > of
congress. The now majority tu the senate
hus chosen an ox-member of the house from
North Carolina , Mr. Cox , us secretary ,10
succeed the republican ox-member , McCook ) ,
nnd if another ox-member hud uskod lor the
position which has gene to Colonel Bright of
Indiana , that of sergcant-at-arms , ho would
doubtless have secured it.
Among the stray ex-members of the house
who have held the ofllccs nt the disposal I of
that body during recent years THE BEE cor
respondent recalls ; Forney , McPhcrsou and
Kerr of Pennsylvania j Yoder and Lecdomof
Ohio ; Holmes of Iowa nnd Clark of Missouri.
This is not half of them. Then In the sen-
.ate , Kehober of North Carolina , Forney of
Pennsylvania. Valentine of Nebraska , Mo-
Cook of Now York , Cox of North Carolina
and many other ex-members of the house
have been given the best clcctivo positions.
At uo tlmo have more than half of the
principal oflices of the two houses of
cougross been out of the hands of ex-mem
bers of that body. If the democrats re-elect
the present outfit ou next Monday they will
again say that fellow sympathy ranks pub
lic duty , as ull of the ofliccrs have worn
themselves out at their home , uud thwlr \
only claims for the poiitl tU they occupy are
based upon ti.o charity 'anil clannlshncsi of
their follows.

Il boxing, 4. [Special Telegram to
The BEE.] Time brings no Improvement in
the condition of affairs in the mining districts of this state and the indications are
that it will be but a short time until the few
silver mines which are in operation will be
closed down altogether, unless there is some
speedy and favorable action taken at the
coming special session of congress. With
the enactment of such legislation, it is a
question if it will come in time to save the
country, as it has become apparent that the
bottom has not yet been reached.
In the Leadville district, which includes
the county of Lake and is known as the
richest silver producing territory in the
world, a complete stagnation prevails, and
scarcely a mine is in operation. Where one
year ago 15,000 men were employed at salaries
ranging from $3 to $5 per day, the total
number of men at work will not exceed
200, and most of these at reduced wages.
One year ago the men in the mines, the men
in the mills, the teamsters and the charcoal
burners were all employed and the outing
country was in a most prosperous condition. '
Now, however, the situation is changed and
instead of men having money in their
pockets they are begging for bread or
tramping from camp to camp in the expectation
of striking something in the placer
mines which have been worked and reworked.
True of Other Placers.
This will apply not only to the Leadville
country but it will hold good in every mining
camp in the state. Many of the men have
left the country, while a few of them, but
not many, are in Camp Shelby in this city,
supported by the charities of the people.
The opinion has gone abroad that discontinuing
work in the mines cannot seriously
affect the growth and prosperity of this city,
but this is a mistaken idea, especially as it
exists. It is a well-known fact that Denver
is the great depot of the whole of the mining
territory of the state, and the whole
northwest as well. Here are located the
great wholesale houses that sell the machinery
and supplies to the hundreds of mines
within a radius of a few score of miles. Here
are located the great reduction works where
the crude ore is converted into marketable
goods and then sent to the mints to be
coined into the dollars, which are alleged to
be at the bottom of all of the present troubles.
The owners of the most of these
great stores and works are sitting about
their doors, patiently waiting for something
to turn up and dispel the cloud of ruin that
hovers about them at this time. While
they are trying to believe that
each cloud has its silver lining, they
unhappily declare that the one which is
now about them possesses nothing to cheer
and make glad the heart of the man who is
long on silver. Did this condition of affairs
extend only to the men who are directly interested
in mines it would not be so serious,
but it does not end there, for it affects nearly
every man in the state and all of the industries,
infant as well as those of mature years.
Tarlso Genially Statement.
This has always been a mining state, and
its prosperity has depended exclusively upon
the output of the mines. Every merchant
in the state and every trade is directly interested
in the bullion that is dug from the
earth, and, with none being dug, the whole
state must be upon the brink of bankruptcy.
This is not a mere guess, but it is a
fact which is borne out by the statements
of the business men and the
bankers of the city, who hold
their breath as they contemplate the
outcome of the next few months. Early in the
season times were very prosperous here
in the mountains and everything indicated
that this was to be one of the bonanza years
for Colorado. Looking at matters in that
light the merchants in the mining camps
and the surrounding towns ordered very
heavily of the wholesalers, who in turn
placed the largest orders that they ever
made. Then the crash came and a few days
thereafter the small dealers
canceled their orders, which compelled the
wholesale dealers in this city to do the same. '
Now the stores are comparatively empty
-y.
with no immediate prospect of selling what
they have on hand. There are those who
allege that the action of the market was speedy
and ill advised, but a tour through the smaller
towns furnishes proof of any evidence of prosperity.
In almost every camp nothing but empty cabins,
or miners who are on the very verge of
poverty, meet the gaze, whom only a few
weeks ago the valleys were busy with the hum of industry.
In this city, only as long ago as last Saturday,
each of the leading merchants discharged one-half
the clerks that were in their employ,
banks have let out their clerks, and the professional
men have sent their stenographers to their homes.
Why They Don't Turn to Farming.
The question is frequently asked why the
men do not turn from mining pursuits and
engage in farming in the fertile valleys that
lie between the mountain ranges! This is
easily answered by one of the old-timers and
a business man of this city, who in conversation
today said:
"It is true that 5,000 of the miners could
go to raising wheat, corn, and produce, but
what would they do with what they raised?
It is too far to ship to Chicago, or any of
the eastern markets, and with all of
the mines idle, the product of one
large farm would glut the home
market and send prices down to the lowest
ebb. No, we are silver producers, and
therein rests the whole of our future prosperity,
With that we go higher than the
clouds and with that we go lower than the
depths of the grave, There is nothing left
for us but mines and mining. With the
mines closed we are in a worse condition
than are the residents of the agricultural
state when, their crops are a total failure,
as in such times
they have other
resources
which they can turn to some advantage. "
Pro | > liciiyliir ; Enurl.iillnir .Smxkli.
The prediction freely made that during
the next sixty days the business of
Denver will begin to lopper and that from
that time on the most prosperous merchant
will go down like the ripened grain before
the reaper's knives.
In Leadville, the great carbonate camp of
the world, the time for failure is ripe and
it is but a question of time when they will
come, the entire trade has gone and the merchants
are simply waiting for the fatal
shaft that will finally shape their course off the
face of the earth. These men are not
alarmed in any particular, but they declare
that silver and its attending legislation has
driven them to the wall.
Camp Shelby Must It Go.
That the camp on the river front where
provisions have been
distributed for a week or
more must go is a thing that has been fully
decided upon by the tax payers of this city.
They state that they are anxious for the
welfare of the occupants thereof, but that it
is a case of self-preservation and that they
cannot afford to give food and assistance to
strangers when their own children may be
crying for bread. Before the coming of another winter.

King Mall Store Attacks and Defeats the
Force of Nations.
APIA, Samoa (via San Francisco), Aug. 4 ,
The long predicted war in Samoa has been
commenced and finished by the intervention of the three powers putting a decisive
end to the trouble.
The first outbreak of hostilities occurred on July 7, when the royal forces sailed to march on Malolo, Mataafa's camp. They captured the outpost and disarmed the four men in it, after which they were set at liberty. Next day the war actually began and the first blood was shed. Mataafa's loss is estimated at thirty killed and twenty wounded. Mataafa's forces were scattered. Mataafa carefully planned the attack and but for the accidental discharge of a gun, Mataafa's forces would have been exterminated. Malietoa and his chiefs became impatient at what they considered the indifference of the three powers undetermined to take the matter into their own hands and the advance upon Malolo was begun. One section of the king's army was sent through the bush with orders to spread out and connect with the other sections. Below Malolo a third section, accompanied by an armed fleet of fifteen boats, sailing close to the shore, went along the beach. According to the plan Mataafa was to be hemmed in on all sides. The accidental discharge of a gun precipitated the conflict before the circle around Mataafa was completed.
Commencement of the Fight.
The followers of Malietoa and adherents of Mataafa met both lines extended from the ocean beach three or four miles into the interior. A large detachment of Mataafa's men was stationed in the cattle yards, and as the king's men advanced the men on Mataafa's line recognized friends and called out cordial greetings. Handshakes were indulged in and it seemed as if friendly relations would be re-established. One ferocious old warrior named Patu, however, urged the king's men back into the ranks, when somebody fired a shot, and the fight commenced. The firing soon became general and deadly.
On the beach opposite the cattle yards were posted a number of the king's men. Mataafa's men advanced to the wall and, were exposed to a raking fire. Another detachment of Malietoa's troops took advantage of an opening in the side of the wall and poured in repeated deadly volleys. The Mataafans were forced to abandon the stock yards and retreat to the shelter of another stone wall a little distance into the brush. Here they made a stand and Malietoa's forces retired. When they attacked the place next morning Mataafa and his warriors had fled to Malolo, Fifteen heads were brought in triumph to the king, it being the custom of Samoans to decapitate all killed, or even wounded, enemies. Among the heads were those of two women, but it is believed they were killed by mistake, though they took an active part in the fight.
Mataafa's Escape.
Mataafa and followers made their escape in boats to the adjoining island of Manono. On July 13 King Malietoa sent an ultimatum to Mataafa demanding that he surrender himself and chiefs, the sole condition being that their lives would be spared. No reply was made to this.
On July 10 the British man-of-war Katoomba arrived at Apia, bringing joint instructions from the powers that the rebellion must be subdued. The commanders of the British and German warships and consuls of the three powers held a consultation. It was decided to demand Mataafa's surrender and the British and German warships (there was no American vessel there) sailed for Manono. They arrived early on the morning of July 18 and sent word to Mataafa that if he did not surrender before 1 p.m., his camp would be shelled by the ships and Malietoa's warriors landed. As the Mataafans would have been slaughtered had this program been carried out.
Arrival of the Powers.
After Mataafa and followers had boarded the warships the consuls of the three powers issued a proclamation to the Samoans that Mataafa and his chiefs had surrendered, and that the war was over, concluding with a warning that any further disturbance would be suppressed by the men-of-war.
Malietoa's army consisted of about 1,000 fighting men, armed with rifles, axes, and long knives. Malietoa's army was far superior to Mataafa's. He also had the advantage in securing the aid of tribes which Mataafa had counted upon to back him.
After the battle each man who had been lucky enough to cut a head off an enemy marched through the streets of Apia with it, They walked up the streets yelling like fiends, with eyes staring from their sockets with excitement and throwing the severed heads about like baseballs, the blood dripping all over the bearers. Many heads were brought in this manner, and, after being exhibited about town, were presented to Malietoa as trophies of war. Mataafa lost sixteen killed and seventeen wounded; Malietoa's loss was four killed and twelve wounded.

Prof. W. D. Alexander Leaves for the United States.
HONOLULU (via San Francisco), July 18.
Prof. W. D. Alexander, special commissioner to the United States, leaves today for the United States, in a special conference yesterday the council went over his instructions. They give him careful instructions to make the best terms the circumstances will permit with the United States for the good of Hawaii and good government. Alexander's general instructions insist on annexation first and last, but to accept a protectorate if no other alternative offers.
The provisional government has introduced a bill in the council to vest the title of crown lands in the government and provide for their distribution and utilization among the people. The bill will likely pass.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 4. The payment of pensions began in this city at 8 o'clock this morning by checks issued on the subtreasury at New York. In order to expedite matters, four of the leading local banks agreed to furnish currency to the amount represented by checks presented in person. This action was made necessary by the suspension of the Indianapolis National bank some time ago, which was a United States depository. The checks are being taken up without expense to the pensioners.
The crowd presenting certificates this morning was greater than over before on the first day of payment of pensions. Quite a number, on appearing at the office, learned that the payment of their pensions had been postponed, and, taken as a whole, the line was an unhappy one.

CASTOR'S WORK CONTINUES
Nebraska Land Offices Receive Some Attention from the Patronage Distributor.
HOW CONSOLIDATIONS WILL BE MADE
Bloomington District Will be Allocated to Omaha and that Territory Attached to the McCook Station More New Continuities.
WASHINGTON BURBAU OF THE BER, July 613 FOREST STREET. >
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.
National Committee man Tobias Castor spent some hours this morning at the general land office examining the makeup of the land districts of Nebraska. He was finally told that the department had determined to abolish but three of the Nebraska land offices, and that the only one up to this time that had been marked for obliteration from the land map was the one at Bloomington. All of the territory in that district will be attached to the McCook district.
It was the inclination of the general land office to abolish the McCook office, but a close examination of the conditions surrounding that district led to the conclusion that that office must be maintained. The other offices which are to be abolished, it is said, are one on the extreme northern portion of the state, and the other probably in the southern section. The office at Lincoln will, of course, be kept open until all others are closed.
It was the purpose at first, in abolishing the several offices which must go in Nebraska, to divide the territory in as equal manner as possible among the districts which will be maintained, but that cannot be done. To divide up the territory in districts whose offices are abolished would require a vast amount of clerical work in the office here, the making of new maps and the issuance of new papers to the offices retained. There would have to be a general reconstruction of all districts in the state.
So the three headless districts will be attached as a whole to the districts adjoining them which can best look after their interests. In order to decide upon a desirable distribution of the offices' territory, a new land map of Nebraska is being prepared. When this is completed, which will be in a few days, Mr. Castor will assist in reaching conclusions for a redistribution of the territory. Then will come the shake-up among the land offices of Nebraska.

Employment of Congregations.
It is probable that the combination of fellow feeling which prevails among members of Congress will result in the re-election of all the present members of the lower house of Congress on next Monday. There are now in three of the four principal offices of the house ex-members of that body. They are the clerk, sergeant-at-arms, and doorkeeper. It may also be stated at this point that the secretary and sergeant-at-arms of the senate, who have been serving for years under the republican regime, are ex-members of the house.
General McCook and Colonel Valentine.
No sooner does a member of the house find himself repudiated by his constituency than he turns about and seeks an office under the body in which he has been serving. Some members of the house begin, as soon as they are declared for renomination or re-election, to work up a place for themselves in the house. Just as soon as Kerr of Pennsylvania, Yoder of Ohio, and Turner of New York were turned out in 1880, they began to work for election as clerk, sergeant-at-arms, and doorkeeper of the house; and they got the places and are in them.
It is a very poor commentary upon the metal that is in a member of Congress that he has no higher ambition than to hold an humble position as employee of the body in which he is serving when he fails of re-election. It is prima facie evidence that he has no pride, no ambition, and no business at home.
A glance at the records of the two houses of Congress for the past quarter of a century shows that more than half of the salaries paid to the six executive officers of those two bodies have been paid to ex-members of Congress. The new majority in the senate has chosen an ex-member of the house from North Carolina, Mr. Cox, as secretary, to succeed the republican ex-member, McCook; and if another ex-member had asked for the position which has gone to Colonel Bright of Indiana, that of sergeant-at-arms, he would doubtless have secured it.
Among the stray ex-members of the house who have held the offices at the disposal of that body during recent years, THE BEE correspondent recalls: Forney, McPherson, and Kerr of Pennsylvania; Yoder and Leeedom of Ohio; Holmes of Iowa and Clark of Missouri. This is not half of them. Then in the senate, Kehoeber of North Carolina, Forney of Pennsylvania, Valentine of Nebraska, McCook of New York, Cox of North Carolina, and many other ex-members of the house have been given the best elective positions.
At no time have more than half of the principal offices of the two houses of Congress been out of the hands of ex-members of that body. If the democrats re-elect the present outfit on next Monday, they will again say that fellow sympathy ranks public duty, as all of the officers have worn themselves out at their home, and their only claims for the positions they occupy are based upon the charity and clannishness of their fellows.

A meeting was held last night between the business men's committee and a number of the striking miners, and at its close the latter concluded to meet with the business men's committee at some convenient time in the near future. The business men's committee will meet with the operators tonight. A majority of the operators have already agreed to the miners in a way, but not with the executive board of the union.
This morning about 200 strikers visited the different works of the small operators and prevailed upon them to come out. Upon those who refused to stop work force was used. As a result the Minard & Co., the Amott & Lanyon and some of the Strip pits are again open.
At Litchfield this morning the same tactics were used by the strikers upon the workingmen at the Kansas & Texas shaft, No. 17, but the strikers met with quite a resistance, and during the melee one of the workers was badly beaten over the head with a club. About fifteen of those engaged in the trouble have been served with injunctions and will be now placed under arrest for contempt of court.
WEIRD City, Kan., Aug. 4, This morning at 8 o'clock about 600 striking miners assembled at the "Frisco" depot to intercept the nonunion men going to work on a special train. At 4:45 o'clock seven nonunion men arrived and jumped on the train. The strikers followed and prevailed upon the workers to promise to stop when the Missouri miners should come out. Deputy Sheriff Douglas was present and all was quiet.
Another train with cars filled with Negroes arrived early this morning.
Will strike on Holiday.
RICHMOND, Mo., Aug. 4. The miners of Hay County, twenty-five hundred in number, met today and decided to strike Monday unless the Kansas & Texas company settles all differences with its miners by that time.

Front of a Sinn Who Thought He Was Acting -
Acting by Divining Communal.
, Wyo., Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] Some three weeks ago a man
unknown to the people here attracted attention by cutting pieces out of his coat and
sewing them to and then exhibiting the coat to bystanders. Marshal Berg ordered him out of town. From here he went to Alcova and told the people his name was Jefferson Davis Kane and that he was commissioned by God to own the country and kill two more men and that he only had two days to work in and that he was going to finish his work in Alcova. He set fire to several large bodies of grass and to several buildings in that town. G. C. Higgles then took a gun and chased him out of the country.
From there he went to Fish Creek and set fire to an irrigated meadow and burned off a great deal of grazing land. Monday he struck the sheep camp of Mitchel Bros, and told the herder his mission on earth and fired three shots at him. The herder got his gun and shot him.
Yesterday the herder sent word into Sheriff's office that he had shot a man and
that he was lying over in a gulch and that he would come in and give himself up, but
that he could not leave his bunch of sheep. Coroner Cumpfield and a Jury left for there
at noon today. Kane probably set fire to a good many of the meadows here that have
burned off lately. He told some people here that he had killed a man in Texas and was
going to kill two more in a short time.

for a couple of days he suddenly disappeared, taking his valise with him. He was soon
missed and his action seemed somewhat strange. The ranchmen and several employees started in search of him. His valise was found several miles from the ranch, but nothing has been found of the missing man. His brother Ed has gone to join in the search.
Their Members Gather in Great Numbers at the World's Fair: Celaids.
CHICAGO, Aug. 4. The weather continues all that the World's fair visitors could wish;
clear and cool, with a refreshing breeze from the lake. This was Scotland's day at the
fair, and many thousands of members of the Scottish clans gathered there. The members
of the various societies, in native Highland costume, lent a bright picturesque appearance
to the grounds. There was a reunion this morning at the Illinois building, mostly of
literary men, musicians and artists. The congress of Scots was held in a hall, at the
conclusion of which a social concert of Scottish songs was given.
The first official action was taken today regarding the alleged immoral dancing of Oriental

Preliminary Trial * | Jailed.
MISSOURI VALLEY, Ia., Aug. 4. [Special to THE BEE.] A gang of several bums were arrested last evening and today had a preliminary examination before the mayor and were bound over under $1000 bonds to appear at the next term of district court. In default of bonds they went to the county jail.
This city has been a gathering point for the distressed laborers from Colorado, and the town has fed, at different times, several hundred, which has attracted a large number of professional bums, to which those they undoubtedly belong. They were charged with committing larceny by taking a case of shoes from the store of John Calvin, and were captured with a few pairs in their possession.
Property Outcome For Frontier.
Sioux City, Aug. 4. [Special Telegraph to THE BEE] Many large property owners in this portion of the state will not be able to meet their taxes due September 1, and which default October 1, on account of the financial stringency. County treasurers are uniting in an effort to do them over by securing permission from state officials to issue receipts to them and take in return bonds for the amount of the taxes due April 1, 1889, which, if not taken then, shall be a tax lien upon the property. It is thought this will do them over the hard times.

DUN'S REVIEW OF THE WEEK
Demoralization in Speculative Markets Followed by a Healthy Toke,
INCREASE IN FOREIGN PURCHASES
Lower Prices Have CHANGED the Demand for American
Exports and
Tend to Sustain Their Market The
Present Chicago Situation.
NEW YORK, Aug. 4. H.G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Demoralization in speculative markets has been followed by a more healthy tone. In money markets there has come a singular sense of relief, notwithstanding an actual increase in present embarrassments, almost amounting to paralysis of exchange between Chicago of commercial cities, and of many industrial works, because even 50 percent premium for currency fails to secure what is needed for the payment of wages. Hopes are nevertheless fixed on the ships bringing over 11,000,000 gold across the sea, and the session of congress, which will begin on Monday. Several of the largest and boldest operators at Chicago have been crushed under pork barrels, but the instant increase of foreign purchases convinces the markets that the disaster has brought a certain measure of relief.
The monetary stringency, which at last crushed speculations in wheat and hog products, had been caused in part by their prevention of exports and their absorption of enormous capital in carrying unprecedented supplies of products which, if sold to foreign consumers, would have brought gold enough to prevent any more evil.
Wheat recovered about 4 cents and pork a few more at Chicago, and orders for exports have caused a sudden advance in ocean freights. With the great surplus of wheat brought over from previous years,
the country will be able to meet all demands, even though the crop proves small enough to justify a considerable advance from previous prices. With a great crop of corn, almost as sure, unusual accumulations of pork and hog products would be safer on the ocean than in Chicago warehouses, and more helpful to the country.
Stocks at the lowest point this week averaged little more than 40 per share, but it is yet a long way to the prices of 1877, averaging at the lowest $21 per share, and the contrast between the condition and.
Earnings of railroads now and then are greater than the difference in prices. In anxious efforts to fortify themselves, banks throughout the country have locked up a large amount of currency, and the depositors who have drawn their accounts are also keeping out of use many millions. As the entire circulation of bills of less than $5 each is but $71,000,000, while the depositors in savings banks number nearly 5,000,000, the withdrawals or the mere withholding of their accustomed deposits by a considerable portion of them withdraws from circulation, much of the small notes. The demand for these has been so great that shipments of silver have in many cases been gladly received, and the difficulty of getting currency for paying employees caused a premium for currency, in some cases ranging up to 33% per cent.
In the Great Depression,
Closing of shops and works for lack of orders is the overwhelming fact. Sales of wool are not a third of the volume, and since the new clip the decrease has been 44,071,734 pounds, or about 40 percent. Prices are weak, and yet so low that decline seems improbable, The Carnegie and some other iron works have almost ceased producing and as yet, the demand brings no further stimulus, though prices in this line also are so low that most makers prefer to stop thus to take lower. In boot and shoe shops, the situation is nearly the same, eastern shipments falling off about a quarter.
Gold Imports may help to revive the credits, upon which a great surplus business depends. The volume of domestic trade, indicated by railway earnings, is but a few percent smaller than last year's. While the failure of the week numbered 490, against 100 last year, a great proportion of them are at the west, and it is cheering to note that comparatively few of importance occurred, except in connection with speculative operations.
Failures during the week number 430 in the United States, against 100 last year, and fifty-three in Canada, against twenty-four last year. There were three failures of $1,000,000 or more, two at Chicago, due to the break in the pork deal, and one in New York City.
WALL STREET FOR A WEEK.
Imports of Gold have a Great Impact Upon the Organic Market of the United States.
NEW YORK, Aug. -Bradstreet's weekly review of Wall Street will, tomorrow, say that although the heavy transfers of gold from Europe to this country have failed to create an immediate change in the financial position, the effect upon the temper and action of speculation has been marked. Wall Street has, indeed, shown a disposition to discount the movement by a sharp advance in stock values, which on last Tuesday and Wednesday almost attained the dignity of a panic. The overdrawn short interest, which has been created by the long-drawn and extreme decline, was, in fact, the main source of buying power on which the improvement was secured. Certain leading operators, it is believed, found their assistance in the work of "twisting" the shorts, success in such a course being almost assured by the heavy borrowing demands for stocks and the premiums of from one-eighth of 1 to 1/2 per cent for the use of certain loaning institutions. Activity by speculative markets in stocks on the bull side, however, soon proved to have been merely temporary, the financial situation still being a barrier to the development of extensive buying for long account. Europe has continued to be a moderate purchaser of stocks, while the absorption of fractional lots by investors is still a feature. The week has shown that there are two sides to speculation and that bear tactics cannot be indefinitely successfully combined with an overdrawn short interest and unexpected large gold imports. It was sufficient to overcome the fears caused at the opening of the week in regard to the possibility of runs on savings banks or of the creation of additional distrust from the resolution of the New York Institutions to enforce the limit clauses in cases of withdrawals of deposits.
The Chicago failures and collapse of the board in provisions created a slight reaction, but were contemporarily interpreted as affording the promise of heavy foreign buying, with a corresponding adjustment of trade balances in our favor. The absence of real buying power indicated, however, that the movement had its limits, while the localized demand for currency, the rigor of the money market, and the renewed firmness of exchange furnished abundant ground for a continued reaction, which appeared on Thursday. At the same time, more or less foreign exchange was expected in regard to the monetary effect of Congress next week, and the spirit which will be shown in action upon the silver question. Those factors indicate that the prevalent depression has begun to affect railroad operations without inflicting serious damage. It may, however, be remarked that the records have already been marked by the absence of demoralization and that the declines were moderate and unattended by decided general terror from those ill-suited, unwieldy short positions. The latter, indeed, restored its presence unmistakably on Friday, when the market, in the face of further unfavorable financial developments, showed both further strength and an astounding resilience.
The anxiety of the short sellers to conceal the evident fact that they have over-told rainy-day stocks was again the only plausible explanation. | 32 |

WASHINGTON , Aug. 4. As soon after con
gress moots as it becomes practicable , Mr.
IJland , the IcSder of the silver forces in tbo
house , will introduce a bill embodying the
views of the silver men. It will provide for
the repeal of the Sherman purchasing act
and substitute therefor the free coinage of
silver at the present ratio of 10 to 1. "That , "
said Mr. Dland , "wilt bo the ground upon
which wo will make the light , although
there has been no dollnltoplanagrccdupon. "
Ho recognized thnt men could honestly
differ as to the ratio , but that was a matter
that should bo settled in the party itself.
Uy the use of both gold and sllv.orns inonoy
at n parity the dtmocratlo partyt 9duld not
differ. If a compromise measure increasing
the rntlo was reached , he said , ho saw no
reason why the present dollar should not uo
kept In circulation as it was now. Ho pro
posed , however , with all his power to resist
any Increase in the ratio. . ,
Arbitrary and Unwilled For.11- '
The attitude of the troaVliry department
In refusing to buy silver wasarbltrarjr&nd
uncalled for , Mr. IJland s.ild , ibut there
was no ground for the talk that the secre
tary could bo Impeached. The law gave him
the discretion and ho was exorcising it , and
that warono of the mistakes of the law. as
ho looked it , which vuii full pf Mistakes.
Ho warned friends of silver oh this very
point when the bill came up for considera
tion in the hoiiso.
The Bland- Allison act was superior In that
rcsucct , in that it did not giyo the Rocrotary
the power , but requlied him to pnruhiUq a
specific amount. If the United States , Mexico
ice and South American countries , together
with tno countries of Asia on our west , were
to agree upon a common ratio , Mr. Uland
thought , wo would have all the trade wo
wanted and would thereby force Europe to
como to the use of silver as a money.
Mr. Bland said that ho had not. scon the
speaker , and when it was suggested to 'htm
that some of his friends ih the Cast would
bo glad to see him off the committee on coln-
aire ho only smiled and said they could not ; ,
at any rate , run him oft the floor of congress.
The chttioplon of silver declared that
there would be a bitter tight against' any
attempt to change the rules so that a cloture
provision might be incorporated.
Air. Henderson' * IMiiu.
Representative Henderson of North Carolina
lina has a plan for the readjustment of the
silver question that ho holds out to bo satis
factory to the persons who wish to see the
democratic platform declarations carried
Into effect without creating divisions in the
party.
As the platform calls for the equal treat
ment. of gold and silver , and as some demo
crats do not deem it safe to provide for the
frco coinage of silver , ho would withdraw
that privilege from gold and provide for the
coinage of both metals en account of the gov
ernment exclusively. This might bo accom
plished , he thinks , by passing a bill requir
ing the absolute purchase of a certain pro
portion of each metal each month and the
coinage of all purchased. Congress might ,
from lime to time , change this proportion as
the needs of the country seemed to require ,
nnd thus adjust the circulation to the de
mands.
Representative Outhwalto ot Ohio is ono
of the few western men who declares him
self in favor of an immediate and uncondi
tional repeal of the silver purchase section
of the Sherman law , but after that Is done
ho says ho would Immediately turn his at
tention to some legislation intended to secure
the more extended use of silver as a money
metal. Ono point upon which Mr. Outh
walto takes strong ground is that the silver
bullion now In the treasury should bo coined
at once and put Into circulation and thus re
lieve the money stringency. Ho says that ,
ns the secretary of the treasury has taken
the position that coin notes issued in pay
ment fur silver bullion purchased are re
deemable in gold alone , it does not appear
there is anv reason to retain this bullion in
the treasury for rQdpmptiotjipurposcs ,
for Ollluo. < *
The canvass for the nomination of the t yo

ment that ho will win the race for door

A in os Cumimugs is doing some energetic
work apaiust Mr. Turner of his stuto. The
friends of Turner say that Mr. Cummings'
opposition is duo to personal reasons and
that it will not affect his canvass.
In the contest for sorgeant-at-arms , Mr.
Outhwaiteand throe other Ohio members , It
was said this afternoon , would oppose Mr.
Voder's nomination , if the state sawfltto
endorse him , and light him in the general
caucus.
It is said that ox-Speaker Hoed will bo

Currnncy llourded in Now York.
, WASHINGTON , Aug. 4. Treasury ofllclals
state that the treasurer is prepared to
supply all the small currency wanted and
the lack of such currency In certain sections
of the country is accounted for by the sup
position cither , that all inonoy Is scarce , or
that the banks have failed to procure of the
treasury the small notes needed for homo
consumption. At no time in recent years
has so much small money been 'sent to New
York and the lack of small notes there can
not bo accounted for here except on the
theory that much of it is being hoarded by
these who receive it , thus withdrawing it
from active circulation.

ROBBERS WITH REVOLVERS
Daring Attempt to Bob and Murder A. W.

SHOT AT BY TWO DESPERATE THUGS
In the rrcstoiico or fitly People on NclRh-

Hot Vlmso line of the Toughs
M rnplnrcil.
Ono of the boldest/ attempts nt highway
robbery and murder thnt over took
) lace In this , city occurred at Eighteenth
and Dodge ; streets about 0:80 : o'clock last
night under an electric light nnd in the. pros-
cneo of flfjy pobplei .A. W. Bowman , the Intended -
tended victim , is protirlotdr of the shoo store
at 117 North Sixteenth street. Ho had a
rory narrow' escape from being murdered by
two thugs who wanted his money.
About ft 'ctalock Mr. Bowman had
completed his day's business affairs and
after closing his store started for his homo
it 2KiS Dodge street. Ho started west on
Dodge from. Sixteenth on the north side of
the street. When within n few feet of the
. ornor ot , KIghteonth and almost under the
bright rays of aiaro | ( light , ho came face to
face with two young men who had their hats
imlled do\vn.overthelr eyes and their hands
In their side coat pockets.
Ho started to stop to ono side , when ono
of them said : * 'Put tip your hands , G d
you , and give us'your money. "
IJotli Itnbberi Hlint nt Him.
Although taken by surprise and at a great
disadvantage " , Mr. Uowmnn plucklly struck
the gun"noarcst to his face to ono side and
Jumncd over a'low iron fence on the msldo
of the walk.
Bang I Bang I went two loud reports al
most simultaneously , Mr. Bowman ynllod
for help and , Jumping the fence , ran across
the-street. At the tlmo of the shooting
ihoro were fully 100 people , most
of them ladies , enjoying the even
ing breezes from their front porches
and lawns on Dodge street. The bullets
from the highwaymen's revolvers wont
whistling through tholr midst. Fortunately
none of thorn were struck by the bullets.
Several of thu ladica screamed and the mur
derous highwaymen" started doxvn Dodge
street at a rapid speed.
CluiReit the Highwaymen ,
By this time Mr. Bowman had recovered
from : his surpriso'and ho give chase after
the lleelng hold-ups and called for others to"
help him capture them. In a short time 150
men and boys were following the thugs.
Mr. Bowman , who is quite a surinter. kept
close to the would-be murderers and the
chase led down to Sixteenth , up Sixteenth
to the alley between Dodge and Douglas and
down the alloy toward Fifteenth street.
When near the Tuxedo saloon , back of the
postofilco the robbers disappeared into a
dark alley nnd the crowd begun to search
for them.
Caught Ono of Them.
Knowing the men were armed and des
perate the citizens had some hesitancy in
rushing in on them. Sergeant Whnlen , who
happened to bo in thnt vicinity , was soon on
the trail and , with Theodore Wiseman , Jr. ,
and Itogor B. Tanoy , located ono of
the fugitives under a pair of stops
directly in the rear of Frank
"Cross1 , gun store. They grabbed the
fellow before ho could use his gun , and
slipped n pair of handcuffs on him. A Inrgo-
sirea six-shooter of the bulldog pattern was
taken fiom the highwayman's right coat
pocket. It was n double-acting gun , and
was at full cock , ready to shoot. The pris
oner struggled desperately and , although of
rather slerdor buld. ( ho made a hard light.
Willitig-citirons held him while Sergeant
Whnlen detailed throe ofllcers who had ar
rived on the scene to uuSrd all avenues of
escape nnd search for the other robber. Ho
then took the captured crook to a patrol box
at Fifteenth and Dodge streets and called
for the wagon.
Kxcltou L'ooplo Wanted to IVyncli Him.
By this tlmo fully 300 people had boon
attracted to the spot and when they heard
of the desperate character of the prisoner
many of them were In favor of dealing out
summary punishment and adorning a con
venient telegraph polo with the thug's body.
Some several shouts of "Hang him ! " were
heard , but the prisoner maintained a cool
silence. But the majority was in favor of
1i letting 1 the law deal with the follow and no
demonstration 1i was made.
While the prisoner was nt the box waiting
for i the arrival of the patrol wagon ho was
positively I Identified by Mr. Bowman and
J. H. McCabe , who lives at Seventeenth
and Dodge and who was an eyewitness
of the shooting.
Came from the Const.
At the station the robber said that his
name was George Price and. that ho had
arrived in Omaha from San Francisco throe
?
days nto. ; He claimed that ho did not know
his partner's name. On the way to the
station Price told Sergeant Whalcn thnt ho ! j
had just come from Denver. Ho said ho was
broke and , took tnis method to raUo money
The prisoner la about 1M' years of ago. lie
is smooth faced and much tanned from ex
posure to the sun. Ho were a dark suit ,
black stiff hat , and summer flannel shirt
with a black tie. Ho also had the rem
nants of a cigarette between his teeth. Ho
was saturated with perspiration , but was
cool and collected. Ho would not talk much ( ,
but maintained n stoical reticence. He had
nothlmr on hlni which would disclose his
identity. The captured revolver was turned
over to Captain Cormlck. With the < yccop-
tioii of ' one chamber It was wickedly loaded.
The p'owder marks show that a shot had
just been fired tram the weapon.
The prisoner was locked up in the strongest
cell jn tbo jail , for the ofllcors regard him us .
a desperate cijuilnul , even though he has .sa
beardless face and meek appearance.
Sergeants Whalun and Ormsby nnd several
olllccrs searched the buildings and ilK ilk
places for several hours In hopes of finding
Price's partner , but at n late hour had nut
located him.-and it is thought that the l
fellow ran In the now brick building In
course of construction on Seventeenth and
Douglas streets and escaped while the excited -
cited crowd .wore after Prico. ch
Mr.-Bowirian . got a good look at both
men , described the escaped robber as being

Story of an Kymvltnesi.
Mr. J1. 'H' . McCabo. who llvc about 200
yards from where the robbers stopped
Mr. Bowman , saw the whole affair. Ho
happened to be looking up the street and
saw the guns glistening under the electric
light. Just then ho saw Mr. Bowman make
a quick move and aaw bolh of the fellows
shoot at him. 'J.he men ran toward him , He
was within twenty feet of them as they
passed , but being unarmed ho could only fol
low them , lie was In lus shirt sleeves and
had np hat , but he gnvo the robbers a lively
chns'o and was of much assistance in the
capture of Price.
I'rloe Attempt * llrlberjr.
Tlioodoro Wiseman , Jr. , saw the man
running , and being a good runner , was close
on them when they disappeared in the alloy.
Ho says the men jumped the high board
fence In the rear of Bills' millinery store
and ran around to tbo stops in the roar of
Cross' gun store on Douglas street just west
of Fifteenth. While searching for them ho
found Price crouching under the stops , gun lu
hand , Price imploringly said : "Hero , I'll give
you a dollar If you won't give ino away. "
Wiseman was unarmed and didn't care to
tackle the highwayman , so ho ran to tlnd an
ofllcor. Seeing Sergeant Whnlen ho told him
whore the follow was concealed , The man.
assisted by Mr , Tuney , pulled Price out and
disarmed him.

Mystery ot nn Unknown Man Found on n
Drpot rintf'irm.
An unknown man was found Ivlug on the
platform of the Northwestern douot last
night in a hclulcss and speechless condition.
The police ambulance convoyed him to the
Piosbyterlan hospital and Dr. Somers was
summoned.
The man scorned to bo conscious , hut
could neither hear nor speak , so that noth
ing 1t 1 could bo learned ns to how ho came to bo
in his condition. Dr. Somors found that his
pulse was 140 and his temperature 100. This
is a very dangerous state nnd it is believed
that ho had been overcome by heat. It was
learned later that the man had boon found in
some weeds not far from the depot and
had evidently been lying exposed to the
blaring sun for severnl hours. Ho tiad had
n hard falll or else had been struck on the
head , as ho had a largo bump on the back
part of his bend. There were no papers on
the man by which ho could bo identified ex
cept in a notebook was "William McKonzlo. "
The people at the hospital reported at a
late hour last night that the man wan still
unable to talk and might die nt any tlmo ,
although they were doing their utmost to
save him. There seems to bo some mystery
about the affair which cannot bo explained ,
unless the man recovers his speech.

llml ol the City.
It was rumored Into last night that n largo
number of tramps who had congregated at
the southern city limits had engaged in a
riot and a number of the belligerents had
been severely injured.
Ifo report of the affair had been made at
the police station at 1 o'clock and the ofllcers
disci-edit the rumor.
There was a largo number of tramps acen
In the woods about the foot of Twenty-sixth
street In the evening , and they wore drink
ing and quarreling among themselves. Thla
may have led to the rumor of riot.
The story circulated , but unconfirmed , Is
that there were two gangs of hoboes and
after imbibing ( considerable diluted alcohol
they started n free-for-all light in which
stones , clubs nnd knives wore used as
weapons. Several of the men wcro alleged
to have boon severely cut. nnd beaten , but
all escaped from that vicinity fearing arrest.

Opened fur Iho 1'roducU
Very few of the loglmis of people consum
ing the amber colored bovcrngo called beer
have any idea ns to tlio IngrodtenU con-
tallied in iho brow , which li drawn in such
copious draughts out of Ice-cold mugs these
mldsutnmoi * dnys.
Close renders of TUB UKK might have In-
fin-red from un article In thU paper some
tlmo ago , when Mr. Mattes was appointed
n special conunhslonor by the Department
of Agriculture to go to Kuropo and en
deavor to open now markets for
American corn , coupled with the sug-
gostlon that breweries there might bo In
duced to use it In the mamifacturo of the
thirst-quenching Hutd , thnt this yellow
grain composed ono part of the prepared
drink In this country. Tholr faint recollec
tion of having hoard thnt hops , malt and
unadulterated aqua pnra ronstitutod tlio
populnr beverage might thereby have ro-
colvod a severe shock , followed by nn avowal
to drink Ice water Instead If thu former
could not bo obtained in a pure stnto accord
ing to their notions.
As a matter of fact , com , after undergoing
processes In eight or mow different forms ,
tins been used In malting beer for .years , per
haps moro extensively in some breweries
than In others , hut used nevertheless lu some
form , cither as glucose or anv of the other
preparations. It Is contended by exper
ienced brewers , who ought to bo Judges , as
they consume n lot of the stuff themselves ,
thnt corn so used Is not injurious to health.
It contains properties that are essential in
making a good quality of the beverage.
l.urk Thoro.
In American beers It will bo observed that
thby are clear , almost free from all settlings ,
while the Imported stint has n murky ap
pearance as seen through the glass. This Is
pronounced dangerous , containing b.icturin
in Quantity which may work mischief in a
healthy stomach ,
Of course hops nnd malt are tndiaponslhlo
in the manufuctmo of beer , us they contain
properties undiscovered in any substitute for
them.
"Brewers as n rule , " said ono of them the
other day , "nro loth to admit that anything
but hops and malt la used in their establish
ments. but I don't believe that there is ono
of them that does not use corn in some form
in brewing , ami I don't sno why they should
bo afraid to lot the people know that they
do as long ns corn don't contain any injur
ious properties. "
Another prevailing- Idea Is that boor can
ho used now in a short time after its manu
facture. As n rule it remains in the hi ?
tanks in tlio collnr.s for about throe months
before it is filled into kegs and sold to thu
saloons , but without detracting any of the
substances it can remain in the cold and
oven temperature where tliu big tames are
kept for a year and perhaps two. Seldom ,
however , does the consumption permit it to
remain there for moro than six months.
"Do you use any lupnlino in your boor , "
was the query with which a reporter ap
parently surprised the foreman of one of
Omaha's largest breweries. The man of
muscle and supervisor of tlio brew laughed
and replied : "N o , wo use hops Instead.
You can taste that by partaking of a stelu
fnsch vein Fuss. "
The reporter indulged and stood ready to
* ay that hops , malt , rice and Missouri river
water constituted the contents of the stein.
DiuignrH of Sand.
"Wo use very little liipiilino , " said an
other browor. "ns it givoa the beer the
taste , hut a person has to bo very carufnl in
its purchase. I always put it under the
microscope because you cannot lull u bother
it is lupulinc or tanninu you are buying. An
other thing is that sand is sometimes added
and unless vnu nut it umlrn * a strong ilass to
magnify it 7.10 times you cannot toll the dif
ference. Lupnlino is the meal or dust from
the pollen In the hops. It comes cheaper
because it is not so bulky , costing from $ : i to
$5 a .pound. The tarlfl on Imported hops
and on this Is the same per pound , so you
sue there is a saving. It l also manufac
tured in this country now , but 1 do not
buy any of this , preferring the hops raised
here. Very often , too , our lupulino is in.ulii
up of the sweeping In ballnir the hops.
When It Is brought under the microscope
you can also distinguish the difference from
tannino , sometimes .sold for the former , tin ]
latter being square In shape and very in
jurious , being manufactured from the iiisuin
part of the hark of an oak tree so largely
used for tanning purjioses. "

Money on rail was quoted at 4@5 per cent, up to a late hour. Stock exchange borrowers found no difficulty in supplying their want at the various rates named. There was no money, nor was there anything like merchantable paper. The loan committee of the clearing house today issued 1,500,000 loan certificates, making the total outstanding 2,500,000.
The outstanding balances were 175,000 debtors at the clearing house and paid in treasury notes. Indications point to very light movement of currency from this center tomorrow. Bills still command a slight premium.
The market for sterling exchange was barely steady on restricted business. The demand from gold importers has fallen off. Commercial bills were more plentiful on account of the comparatively high rates. Posted quotations are unchanged at W.81 and 8.81, landing rates for stocks continue to rule high, showing that the short interest uncovered is still large.
HERE IS NO HOARSE STATEMENTS.

New York Failures.
NEW YORK, Aug. 4. N.L. Corl & Co., Importers of tin, tin plate and other metals, made an assignment today. Frederick G. Dow, the assignee, said that the liabilities are about $350,000. He could not tell what the assets would amount to; they are large, consisting of inventories, bills receivable, outstanding accounts and property. The firm is a very old one, very prominent in the metal trade and has a world-wide reputation. The failure is due to depreciation in the price of metals, failure of customers to carry out their contracts with the firm, general financial stringency and depression.
S. Jacoby & Co., cigar manufacturers, confessed judgments aggregating $20,000. They generally carried a stock worth $100,000 and had a large amount of outstanding accounts. Their attorneys said today that the liabilities are about $150,000. The assets are large, consisting of stock, accounts, Bills receivable and the plant. The creditors are few in number and will be called together as soon as a statement can be prepared.
St. Paul Failure.
ST. PAUL, Aug. 4. The closing of the doors of the German-American National bank this morning, as arranged for last night, caused some withdrawal of funds from other banks, but no particular excitement or runs.
This morning the People's bank, with a capital of $200,000, suspended. No statement has been made. The failure is not considered important.
The West Side bank, with a capital of $100,000, closed its doors at 1 o'clock. No statement has been made. The bank officials say they expect to resume in a few days. The comptroller of the currency has appointed Daniel W. Lawlor of this city to take charge of the German-American bank.
Faymon a Double Standard.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. Mr. Bland of Missouri, a leading member of the house committee on appropriations, arrived tonight. He said he was an advocate of the double standard but declined to state how he stands on the proposition to repeal the Sherman law. The inference drawn from his remarks, however, was that he opposed its unconditional repeal and would vote with those who sought a reasonable compromise.
Mr. Sayres, also a member of the appropriations committee from Texas, in common with the other members from his state, favors free coinage at a ratio to be agreed upon by the party.
Failure at Sioux City.
Sioux City, Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to The Herald.] The W.H. Livingston company, retail dealers in dry goods, went into the hands of a receiver here today. Sidney Clarke is receiver and will close the business out. The company has liabilities of $5,000,000, and assets of fully $6,000,000. The receivership was caused by complications growing out of the death of W.H. Livingston, formerly manager of the company.

TAMMANY IT OVER
During numerous conferences on the River Judiciary > WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. As soon after congress meets as it becomes practicable, Mr. Bland, the leader of the silver forces in the house, will introduce a bill embodying the views of the silver men. It will provide for the repeal of the Sherman purchasing act and substitute therefor the free coinage of silver at the present ratio of 10 to 1. "That," said Mr. Bland, "will be the ground upon which we will make the fight, although there has been no definite plan agreed upon."
He recognized that men could honestly differ as to the ratio, but that was a matter that should be settled in the party itself. By the use of both gold and silver money at a parity, the democratic party should not differ. If a compromise measure increasing the ratio was reached, he saw no reason why the present dollar should not be kept in circulation as it was now. He proposed, however, with all his power to resist any increase in the ratio.
The attitude of the treasury department in refusing to buy silver was arbitrary and uncalled for, Mr. Bland said, but there was no ground for the talk that the secretary could be impeached. The law gave him the discretion and he was exercising it, and that was one of the mistakes of the law, as he looked at it, which was full of mistakes.
He warned friends of silver on this very point when the bill came up for consideration in the house.
The Bland-Allison act was superior in that respect, in that it did not give the Secretary the power, but required him to purchase a specific amount. If the United States, Mexico, and South American countries, together with the countries of Asia on our west, were to agree upon a common ratio, Mr. Bland thought, we would have all the trade we wanted and would thereby force Europe to come to the use of silver as a money.
Mr. Bland said that he had not seen the speaker, and when it was suggested to him that some of his friends in the Senate would be glad to see him off the committee on currency, he only smiled and said they could not; at any rate, run him off the floor of Congress. The chairman of silver declared that there would be a bitter fight against any attempt to change the rules so that a cloture provision might be incorporated.
Mr. Henderson of North Carolina has a plan for the readjustment of the silver question that he holds out to be satisfactory to the persons who wish to see the democratic platform declarations carried into effect without creating divisions in the party. As the platform calls for the equal treatment of gold and silver, and as some democrats do not deem it safe to provide for the free coinage of silver, he would withdraw that privilege from gold and provide for the coinage of both metals on account of the government exclusively. This might be accomplished, he thinks, by passing a bill requiring the absolute purchase of a certain proportion of each metal each month and the coinage of all purchased. Congress might, from time to time, change this proportion as the needs of the country seemed to require, and thus adjust the circulation to the demands.
Representative Outhwaite of Ohio is one of the few western men who declares himself in favor of an immediate and unconditional repeal of the silver purchase section of the Sherman law, but after that is done, he says he would immediately turn his attention to some legislation intended to secure the more extended use of silver as a money metal. One point upon which Mr. Outhwaite takes strong ground is that the silver bullion now in the treasury should be coined at once and put into circulation and thus relieve the money stringency. He says that, as the secretary of the treasury has taken the position that coin notes issued in payment for silver bullion purchased are redeemable in gold alone, it does not appear there is any reason to retain this bullion in the treasury for redemption purposes.
The canvass for the nomination of the two contested places in the house organization was resumed this afternoon with renewed vigor by the candidates, the incoming of personal friends putting more life into the fight than had yet appeared. Mr. Hurt for the first time comes out with the positive statement that he will win the race for doorkeeper, while Mr. Smith appears to be as sanguine as ever.
A.E. Cummings is doing some energetic work against Mr. Turner of his state. The friends of Turner say that Mr. Cummings' opposition is due to personal reasons and that it will not affect his canvass.
In the contest for sergeant-at-arms, Mr. Outhwaite and three other Ohio members, it was said this afternoon, would oppose Mr. Voder's nomination, if the state saw fit to endorse him, and fight him in the general caucus.
It is said that ex-Speaker Hoes will be honored with the complimentary vote of his party for the speakership at the caucus tomorrow night, but who the remaining candidates for the empty honors may be is not known.
Currency Shortage in New York.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. Treasury officials state that the treasurer is prepared to supply all the small currency wanted and the lack of such currency in certain sections of the country is accounted for by the supposition either, that all money is scarce, or that the banks have failed to procure from the treasury the small notes needed for home consumption. At no time in recent years has so much small money been sent to New York and the lack of small notes there can not be accounted for here except on the theory that much of it is being hoarded by those who receive it, thus withdrawing it from active circulation.
Another Bank in Trouble.
MUKKIN, Ind., Aug. 4. This morning the Citizens National bank of this city failed to open its doors. A notice on the door said the assets were ample to pay all depositors. Hundreds of depositors congregated about the bank.
Depositors of the Delaware National, Farmers National and Merchants National banks then commenced to draw out their money. The rim remained open until 4 o'clock this evening. Heavy deposits are being made by wealthy citizens to save the remaining three.
Depositors Bring Suit.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 4, Engla C. Maupin and Mrs. R.A. Gregory, depositors, have sued this evening against the directors of the Kansas City Safe Deposit and Savings Bank to recover $530 and $500 respectively. They claim that their deposits were accepted after the directors knew the bank was insolvent, and they claim also that the officers of the bank told them at the time that the bank was absolutely solvent. Inspection of the bank's assets convinces depositors generally that they will not recover over 50 percent of their deposits.
Old Certificates.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. It is stated at the Treasury department that there is no likelihood of resumption of the issue of gold certificates until the free gold stands from $7,000,000 to $10,000,000 above the reserve. This increase can only be authorized by the secretary of the treasury, who has not yet given any instructions in that direction. The free gold is now nearly $2,000,000.
Currency Ordered Printed.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. Since August 1, the comptroller of the currency has ordered currency printed on the security of United States bonds for national bank circulation to the amount of $6,850,000. The actual amount issued on bonds since the 1st of the month has been $5,864,150.
E.K. Anderson Appointed.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. The president has appointed E.K. Anderson of New York one of the Paulson railroad commissioners in place of Mr. Dimmock, who was appointed, but who declined the appointment.
Opposed to the Repeal of the Purchasing Clause.
DES MOINES, Aug. 4. Bankers of this city have all voted in favor of the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman law.
Several of the mills, owing to the scarcity of currency, today paid off their notes in clearing house certificates, which generally accepted by merchants here, several mills have reduced their working forces and it is estimated that one-third of the spindles in the city are now idle.
INTEREST IN THE SILVER QUESTION.
He Hopes That Congress Will Take a Decisive Stand on the Silver Question.
WILMINGTON, Del., Aug. 4. The following is printed here: An airdrome received letter, Ambassador Dayton says:
"I am looking forward anxiously to the meeting of Congress and hope there will be no faltering in the resolve to maintain that gold unit of value. So far from depreciating the intrinsic value of silver bullion, I believe the cessation of storage and accumulation of stock will help the market price for this commodity as it would help any other commodity.
"Whatever future steps may be taken, a present step ending the purchase of silver bullion under the Sherman act is of the plainest duty and necessity. Great spectacles put upon a donkey are reported to have induced him to eat shavings instead of grass, but it was not a sustaining diet.
"The intrinsic value of gold makes it the lost standard and measure of the unit for the calculation of exchanges and to unship it is simply to throw the whole machinery of civilized contracts out of gear, to bring about confusion and disaster and strike a blow at all obligations of morality and good faith, which are the cornerstones of honest life.
"What a cry would go up if the pound avoirdupois were reduced to ten ounces and contracts executed at that value? Speculators are not needed to guide men in such paths and no sophistry should be permitted to obscure the plain way."
CLAIMS OF THE PROHIBITORS.
Address Loomed by Their National Excursion, Commission.
CHICAGO, Aug. 4. The executive committee of the populist party, which has been in session here since the adjournment of the silver convention, tonight issued an address to the people of the United States. It says:
The overwhelming spirit of this convention indicates that the whole nation is alive to the dangers which threaten us. The convention not only repudiated the idea of a gold standard and a gold basis, but unanimously committed itself to the principle that we, as populists, have long held and cherished, namely: That law alone makes money, and that the stamp of the government converts cents worth of silver into a dollar, equal to any gold dollar. And they unanimously accepted our doctrine that the money of the country should be adequate for the demands of business and should expand with the growth of population and commerce.
The address holds out the idea that the silver convention was a great victory for the populist principles as embodied in the Omaha platform and states that the struggle will obliterate old party lines; that tens of thousands of new converts are coming to their rallies, and recommencing industrial unions and all similar organizations as valuable aids in organizing and educating the people.
TALKS.
Ho Thinks that the Silver Act Will Be Repealed.
BLOOMINGTON, Ill.-Aug. 4. Vice President Stevenson left this evening for Washington, to be present at this special session of congress on Monday. To an Associated Press correspondent tonight he said: "From advice I have received, it is my opinion that the Sherman Act of 1891 will be repealed, but as to any substitute I am not prepared to talk. I hardly think anything will be done with the tariff at this session, as congress would not have time. It is extremely hard to tell whether the session will be long or short, and it is extremely hard to foretell anything concerning it. I hardly think congress will have time to adjust matters so that it could adjourn as short a time as ten days, as has been suggested."
Mexico's Dollar.
TACOMA, Wash.-Aug. 4. Mexican Minister Gomez, and General Diaz of the Mexican government, arrived today en route to Alaska.
Gomez, when asked about the attitude of the Sherman Act toward Mexico, said: "We cannot give up silver as a money metal. Silver is the only money we have, and the country would go bankrupt if compelled to give it up. But silver will not be excluded from coinage."

ROBBERS WITH REVOLVERS
Daring Attempt to Rob and Murder A.W. Bowman Under an Electric Light,
SHOT AT BY TWO DESPERATE THUGS
In the restoration of fifty people on Niobrara lighting torches and complaining of violent crimes along the Hot Vins line of the toughs
Applied.
One of the boldest attempts at highway robbery and murder that ever took place in this city occurred at Eighteenth and Dodge streets about 8:30 o'clock last night under an electric light and in the presence of fifty people. A.W. Bowman, the intended victim, is proprietor of the shoe store at 117 North Sixteenth Street. He had a very narrow escape from being murdered by two thugs who wanted his money.
About 8:30 Mr. Bowman had completed his day's business affairs and after closing his store started for his home at 257 Dodge Street. He started west on Dodge from Sixteenth on the north side of the street. When within a few feet of the corner of Eighteenth and almost under the bright rays of a large electric light, he came face to face with two young men who had their hats tilted down over their eyes and their hands in their side coat pockets.
He started to stop to one side, when one of them said: "Put up your hands, God damn you, and give us your money."
Both Robbers Flee at Him.
Although taken by surprise and at a great disadvantage, Mr. Bowman pluckily struck the gun nearest to his face to one side and jumped over a low iron fence on the other side of the walk.
Bang! Bang! went two loud reports almost simultaneously, Mr. Bowman yelled for help and, jumping the fence, ran across the street. At the time of the shooting there were fully 100 people, most of them ladies, enjoying the evening breezes from their front porches and lawns on Dodge street. The bullets from the highwaymen's revolvers whistled through their midst. Fortunately none of them were struck by the bullets. Several of the ladies screamed and the murderous highwaymen started down Dodge street at a rapid speed.
Chasing the Highwaymen,
By this time Mr. Bowman had recovered from his surprise and he gave chase after the fleeing hold-ups and called for others to help him capture them. In a short time 150 men and boys were following the thugs. Mr. Bowman, who is quite a hunter, kept close to the would-be murderers and the chase led down to Sixteenth, up Sixteenth to the alley between Dodge and Douglas and down the alley toward Fifteenth street. When near the Tuxedo saloon, back of the post office the robbers disappeared into a dark alley and the crowd began to search for them.
Caught One of Them.
Knowing the men were armed and desperate the citizens had some hesitancy in rushing in on them. Sergeant Whalen, who happened to be in that vicinity, was soon on the trail and, with Theodore Wiseman, Jr., and Roger B. Taney, located one of the fugitives under a pair of steps directly in the rear of Frank Cross, gun store. They grabbed the fellow before he could use his gun, and slipped a pair of handcuffs on him. A longtime six-shooter of the bulldog pattern was taken from the highwayman's right coat pocket. It was a double-acting gun, and was at full cock, ready to shoot. The prisoner struggled desperately and, although of rather stolid build, he made a hard fight.
Willing citizens held him while Sergeant Whalen detailed three officers who had arrived on the scene to guard all avenues of escape and search for the other robber. He then took the captured crook to a patrol box at Fifteenth and Dodge streets and called for the wagon.
Excited People Wanted to Lynch Him.
By this time fully 300 people had been attracted to the spot and when they heard of the desperate character of the prisoner many of them were in favor of dealing out summary punishment and adorning a convenient telegraph pole with the thug's body. Several shouts of "Hang him!" were heard, but the prisoner maintained a cool silence. But the majority was in favor of letting the law deal with the fellow and no demonstration was made.
While the prisoner was at the box waiting for the arrival of the patrol wagon he was positively identified by Mr. Bowman and J. H. McCabe, who lives at Seventeenth and Dodge and who was an eyewitness of the shooting.
Came from the Constable.
At the station the robber said that his name was George Price and that he had arrived in Omaha from San Francisco three days ago. He claimed that he did not know his partner's name. On the way to the station Price told Sergeant Whalen that he had just come from Denver. He said he was broke and, took this method to raise money.
The prisoner is about 30 years of age. He is smooth faced and much tanned from exposure to the sun. He wore a dark suit, black stiff hat, and summer flannel shirt with a black tie. He also had the remnants of a cigarette between his teeth. He was saturated with perspiration, but was cool and collected. He would not talk much, but maintained a stoical reticence. He had nothing on him which would disclose his identity. The captured revolver was turned over to Captain Corbett. With the exception of one chamber it was wickedly loaded.
The prisoner was locked up in the strongest cell in the jail, for the officers regard him as a desperate character, even though he has a beardless face and meek appearance.
Sergeants Whalen and Ormsby and several officers searched the buildings and all places for several hours in hopes of finding Price's partner, but at a late hour had not located him and it is thought that the fellow ran into the now brick building under construction on Seventeenth and Douglas streets and escaped while the excited crowd wore after Price.
Mr. Bowman got a good look at both men, described the escaped robber as being about five feet eleven inches in height. He wore a gray sack suit and a straw hat with a black band around it. He was heavier than Price and had a rather round, sunburnt face.
The police are confident they will capture him, as every officer in the city was notified and given a description within an hour after the shooting. This follows also shot at Mr. Bowman at the same time that Price did. If caught he can be identified. Price is charged with highway robbery and shooting with intent to kill.
Story of an Eyewitness.
Mr. J.H. McCabe, who lives about 200 yards from where the robbers stopped Mr. Bowman, saw the whole affair. He happened to be looking up the street and saw the guns glistening under the electric light. Just then he saw Mr. Bowman make a quick move and saw both of the fellows shoot at him. The men ran toward him, He was within twenty feet of them as they passed, but being unarmed he could only follow them, he was in his shirt sleeves and had no hat, but he gave the robbers a lively chase and was of much assistance in the capture of Price.
Price Attempted Robbery.
Theodore Wiseman, Jr., saw the man running, and being a good runner, was close on them when they disappeared in the alley. He says the men jumped the high board fence in the rear of Bills' millinery store and ran around to the steps in the rear of Cross' gun store on Douglas street just west of Fifteenth. While searching for them he found Price crouching under the steps, gun in hand, Price imploringly said: "Here, I'll give you a dollar if you won't give me away." Wiseman was unarmed and didn't care to tackle the highwayman, so he ran to find an officer. Seeing Sergeant Whalen he told him where the fellow was concealed. The man, assisted by Mr. Tuney, pulled Price out and disarmed him.
It was a very narrow escape for Mr. Bowman and his pluck and quick action probably saved him from death and also one of the robbers in jail.
Not Their First Attempt.
Captain Corbett thinks these are the same men who attempted to rob John Thorn about midnight on Thursday and shot at him. Their descriptions were about the same, and they answer the description of the men as described by Thorn.
They are evidently desperate characters and their attempt to rob Mr. Bowman was witnessed by more than fifty people who live in the vicinity of Eighteenth and Dodge streets.
The affair caused great excitement.
HERMAN COHEN ARRESTED.
Attempt to Sell
Disreputable Sheet on
the Streets of Omaha.
Herman Cohen was arrested last night by Officer Donahue on the charge of selling a disreputable sheet, known as the Sunday Sun, on the streets. This is the first appearance of this so-called newspaper on the streets of Omaha since it was most effectively suppressed by the passage of an ordinance several months ago prohibiting its sale.
Cohen received 500 copies of the paper this week, and, as agent for Preston, the man who prints the sheet in a back room at 315 Dearborn Street in Chicago, began to offer it for sale through small newsboys who were ignorant of the fact that they were violating the law in selling it.
Two or three little fellows were crying out the name of the paper and Officer Donahue was ordered to confiscate their stock of Suns and try and find out where they got the papers. One little fellow was arrested but on stating that Cohen gave him the papers to sell, he was released and Cohen was arrested.
Several copies of the paper were taken to the station as evidence against the prisoner. When Cohen was searched, a letter signed "The Sunday Sun" with a rubber stamp, was taken from him. This letter stated that 500 copies of the paper had been sent to him. The letter further stated that the Omaha department in the paper would be given great prominence on the first part and would be written so that the agent would have no difficulty in selling the papers.

An unknown man was found lying on the platform of the Northwestern depot last night in a helpless and speechless condition. The police ambulance conveyed him to the Presbyterian hospital and Dr. Somers was summoned.
The man seemed to be unconscious, but could neither hear nor speak, so that nothing could be learned as to how he came to be in his condition. Dr. Somers found that his pulse was 140 and his temperature 100. This is a very dangerous state and it is believed that he had been overcome by heat. It was learned later that the man had been found in some weeds not far from the depot and had evidently been lying exposed to the blazing sun for several hours. He had had a hard fall or else had been struck on the head, as he had a large bump on the back part of his head. There were no papers on the man by which he could be identified except in a notebook was "William McKonzie."
The people at the hospital reported at a late hour last night that the man was still unable to talk and might die at any time, although they were doing their utmost to save him. There seems to be some mystery about the affair which cannot be explained, unless the man recovers his speech.
HOURS IN A KICK.
Gist of Humor Brought In from the South End of the City.
It was rumored last night that a large number of tramps who had congregated at the southern city limits had engaged in a riot and a number of the belligerents had been severely injured.
No report of the affair had been made at the police station at 1 o'clock and the officers decided the rumor.
There was a large number of tramps seen in the woods about the foot of Twenty-sixth street in the evening, and they were drinking and quarreling among themselves. This may have led to the rumor of riot.
The story circulated, but unconfirmed, is that there were two gangs of hoboes and after imbibing (considerable diluted alcohol) they started a free-for-all fight in which stones, clubs and knives were used as weapons. Several of the men were alleged to have been severely cut, and beaten, but all escaped from that vicinity fearing arrest.
ADVENTURE WITH A RAZOR.
Will Hicks Has a Row With Jim Welch and Carves Him.
Will Hicks got into an argument with Jim Welch in a saloon at the corner of Ninth and Capitol avenue last night. The men punctuated their sentences with numerous blows. Hicks was getting the worst of the fight when he drew a razor and cut Jim in the left arm.
The razor struck Welch in the muscle of the arm and penetrated to the bone. Hicks was locked up and Welch was turned over to the city surgeon, who sowed up the gash.
Hicks is charged with slapping with intent to kill.
Boating, Courtland beach,
ALL THREE IN JAIL.
Henry Hanson, Annie Schmidt and William Sauter were locked up last night charged with drunkenness and disturbing the peace by fighting. Annie and William started out for a "time" and after visiting several saloons got noisily drunk. They wandered along Thirteenth and Harney streets about midnight when they met Hanson, who is Annie's lover.
He tried to persuade Annie to go with him and then the fight began. Officer Sam Drumay and Watchman Murphy arrested the trio and sent them to jail.
No one was seriously hurt in the melee.

Triumphal Conclusion of a National Celebration in Indian Territory.
Correspondent E, Kan., Aug. 4. The celebration by negroes of Independence Day, which took place at Goose Neck Bend, I.T., today, resulted in starting a race war between the whites and blacks.
Great crowds of negroes were present at the celebration and many white people attended as spectators. Among the latter was James Singleton, with whom John Van (colored) had a long-standing quarrel. When the two men today met the quarrel was renewed and Van struck Singleton over the head with a revolver.
Singleton's son, a young man 31 years of age, went to his father's rescue and shot and killed Van. The negroes at once declared a war of extermination against the whites and were about to be hostilities when Deputy United States Marshal Bruner gathered a posse and kept the whites and blacks separated. Bruner arrested young Singleton and took him to Fort Smith, Ark., for safe keeping. The posse, in the meantime, kept the factious apart and hostilities were frustrated.

DANGERS OF DEER DRINKING
The Facts About Schooners Without Sails that Cross the Bar.
LUPULINE IS USED BY MANY BREWERS
It is Adulterated with Sulphur, Harmful and
the Illinois Corn Lining Lined
and a New Scent
Opened for the Produce
Very few of the ignorant classes of people consuming the amber colored beverage called beer have any idea as to the ingredients contained in the brew, which is drawn in such copious draughts out of ice-cold mugs these maddening days.
Close renderers of THE FACTS might have inferred from an article in this paper some time ago, when Mr. Mattes was appointed a special commissioner by the Department of Agriculture to go to Europe and endeavor to open new markets for American corn, coupled with the suggestion that breweries there might be induced to use it in the manufacture of the thirst-quenching fluid, that this yellow grain composed one part of the prepared drink in this country. Their faint recollection of having heard that hops, malt and unadulterated aqua pura constituted the popular beverage might thereby have received a severe shock, followed by an avowal to drink ice water instead if the former could not be obtained in a pure state according to their notions.
As a matter of fact, corn, after undergoing processes in eight or more different forms, has been used in malting beer for years, perhaps more extensively in some breweries than in others, but used nevertheless in some form, either as glucose or any of the other preparations. It is contended by experienced brewers, who ought to be judges, as they consume a lot of the stuff themselves, that corn so used is not injurious to health.
It contains properties that are essential in making a good quality of the beverage.
Laugh There.
In American beers, it will be observed that they are clear, almost free from all sediment, while the Imported stuff has a murky appearance as seen through the glass. This is pronounced dangerous, containing bicarbonates in quantity which may work mischief in a healthy stomach.
Of course, hops and malt are indispensable in the manufacture of beer, as they contain properties undiscovered in any substitute for them.
"Brewers, as a rule," said one of them the other day, "are loath to admit that anything but hops and malt is used in their establishments, but I don't believe that there is one of them that does not use corn in some form in brewing, and I don't see why they should be afraid to let the people know that they do as long as corn doesn't contain any injurious properties."
Another prevailing idea is that beer can be used now in a short time after its manufacture. As a rule, it remains in the big tanks in the cellar for about three months before it is filled into kegs and sold to the saloons, but without detracting any of the substances, it can remain in the cold and oven temperature where the big tanks are kept for a year and perhaps two. Seldom, however, does the consumption permit it to remain there for more than six months.
"Do you use any lupulin in your beer?" was the query with which a reporter apparently surprised the foreman of one of Omaha's largest breweries. The man of muscle and supervisor of the brew laughed and replied: "No, we use hops instead. You can taste that by partaking of a stein full of our beer."
The reporter indulged and stood ready to say that hops, malt, rice, and Missouri river water constituted the contents of the stein.
Design of Sand.
"We use very little lupulin," said another brewer, "as it gives the beer the taste, but a person has to be very careful in its purchase. I always put it under the microscope because you cannot tell whether it is lupulin or tannin you are buying. Another thing is that sand is sometimes added and unless you put it under a strong class to magnify it 70 times you cannot tell the difference. Lupulin is the meal or dust from the pollen in the hops. It comes cheaper as it is not so bulky, costing from $1 to $5 a pound. The tariff on Imported hops and on this is the same per pound, so you see there is a saving. It is also manufactured in this country now, but I do not buy any of this, preferring the hops raised here. Very often, too, our lupulin is made up of the sweeping in handling the hops. When it is brought under the microscope you can also distinguish the difference from tannin, sometimes sold for the former, the latter being square in shape and very injurious, being manufactured from the inner part of the bark of an oak tree so largely used for tanning purposes."

Agent of tlia ttork Inland Company
A Vindication ol the Chargr *
Made Against Him.
J. A. Iloff , formerly local freight agent of
the Hock Island , received a telegram from
the headquarters of the company In Chicago
yesterday afternoon , the contents of which
will bo a source of pleasure to all of his
friends In this city , as It certainly was to
him. The checking up of the books after
the shortage la Cashier J , P. Christiansen's
books was discovered has been completed
and the results were telegraphed to Chicago.
Yesterday a reply came , stating that Mr.
George II. Denton would occupy the position
of local freight agent In place of Mr. KofT ,
and that the latter would bo promoted to the
position of commercial agent.
The position of commercial agent Is a now
one , and wns created especially for Mr. Uoff.
Its duties will call him out among the business
men ot the city , Instead of keeping him
cooped up in the little ofllco In the southern
part of the city as before , ills business will
be to work up trade for the road , and the
growth of business the Hook Island has seen
during the past few years is a sufficient In
dication of his qualifications for the place.
The dry details of the ofllco will bo taken off
his hands and the outside work which wilt
fall upon his shoulders Is much more to his
liking.
Mr. Hoff has been wishing for this kind of
a windfall foryoars , and now that It has
come ho Is elated , as ho has a right to Do.
The work Is more agreeable and the pay is
bettor , two considerations which are , of
course , highly satisfactory. But the best
part of the promotion , as ho looks at It , is
the fact that the company in making it com
pletely exonerates him from all charges of
crookedness that have been made against
him. Whatever was wrong with the books
has been credited up to his underling , where
it belongs , and the charges which are made
by the underling have been fully investi
gated. The fact of the promotion , tolls , In a
far clearer manner than words could , just
what the ofllciala of the company thought of
Mr. Holt's way of doing business.

his supposed crookedness in regard to :
pension which he has been drawing withou
being entitled to it. Ho immediately
p lid a visit to Sheriff Hiizcn and looked ovoi
the papers found in Taylor's possession. H <
stated that there was undoubtedly ome
thing wrong about him , and ho Is giving the
case a thorough sifting. It Is stated that a
pension attorney named Webb , who lives in
Washington , and through whom Taylor's
pension was secured , is very likely to bo im
plicated in a wrong doing before the In *

DENVCII , Aug. 4. As the result of a brutal
prize fight at the rooms of the Kamblors'
'Cycling club last night Bobby Taylor , the
"Sailor Kul"dlcd , this afternoon. The light
lasted twenty-two rounds , at the end of
which It wns declared a draw. The "Sailor
Kid's" opponent was "Kid" Koblnson , a
negro whom Taylor had defeated In a pre
vious fight. The men fought at 121 pounds
nnd when the light was over both were
badly used up and dtsflgurod , although six-
ounce gldves were used.
When Taylor began dressing after the
flghtf ho suddenly fainted and remained un
conscious all night and today until ho died.
Bat Mastcrson , who refcrccd the light and
Dick Carbcrry , the manager , together with
the negro , Koblnson , are under arrest. Mas-
terson claims that Taylor's death was
caused by falling and striking his head on a
chair , Just after the light.
The "Sailor Kid" was matched to fight a
Chicago featherweight on the night of the
Grcggains-Crcodon light before the Colum
bian Athletic club on August 14. Taylor was
also known as Lou Turner.

grave was similarly fortunate In the 2:20 :
stake for 8-year-old trotters. Walter E won
n great free-for-all trot , but It required con
siderable maneuvering nnd seven heats to
decide the race. As the heats progressed
the miles became slower nnd one by ono the
great froo-for-nllcrs foil by the wayside" .
When the bell sounded for the seventh heat
Walter E , Hyland T nnd Martha Wllkes , the
latter the most tired of the trio , were the
only ones that remained. The split heat
champion was the peer of the other two , nnd

was blowing hard , accompanied by a hea vy

moat holly contested game played in the

the end of the ninth inning in favor ol
Anslcy. The beautiful work of Lacy and
Jellcn , the battery for the home team , was
what saved the day , a wild pitched ball
being the only error. Jellcn's curves were
mysterious and only one .or two safe hits
were made off him. Considerable money

Nursery Is Responsible for Much

Opium and Alcohol Frequently
Given to Infants ,
Neglect of n B.xby's Diet Loads U
Awful Consequences.
The Inebriety of later life Is often lh
result of opium and alcohol given in soma
form to babies for trivial reasons. Nuraci
who have given uhlldren medicines for
imllgoatlon know how dilllcult it is to
woim the child from the rtrujjs.
The ono great duty of parents to their
children is , therefore , not to give them ,
medicine , but to nmko sure that they got
fond , pure , ample and capable of nu ] >
plylug uioterliUs of healthy growth anil
development.
When natural mother's milk Is out of
the question or Insulllclont for the enor

"I have throe of the most healthy lit
tle children in the elate , and 1 must say
that they owe' tholf health to having
boon brought ujvon Imitated food. Ono
of the leading doctors In Pawluckot ad
vised mo to use it and Ish-tll always feel
glad that I followed his advice. My
youngest child is 14 months old und is as
hoiilthy and cheery as any little boy
could bo , and I am uro that lactatoil
food has a great deal to do with it. It
has been a great blessing to our little
'
family , and I consider It my'duty to rec
ommend It to all my friends. They nil
have the same good word for it after
they have tried it ; it has only to bo
tried and the good results will be soon
at once. T ahull always fool grateful to
the ones who placed laclated food within
the roach of all , whether rich or poor. "
Lactatcd food Is in fact most economi

NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Mr. J.A. Hoff Receives a Very Agreeable Surprise.
HIS SERVICES HAVE BEEN APPRECIATED
He has been promoted to the position of the Commercial Agent of the Rock Island Inland Company
A Vindication of the Charges
Made Against Him.
J.A. Hoff, formerly local freight agent of the Rock Island, received a telegram from the headquarters of the company in Chicago yesterday afternoon, the contents of which will be a source of pleasure to all of his friends in this city, as it certainly was to him. The checking up of the books after the shortage in Cashier J.P. Christiansen's books was discovered has been completed and the results were telegraphed to Chicago. Yesterday a reply came, stating that Mr. George H. Denton would occupy the position of local freight agent in place of Mr. Hoff, and that the latter would be promoted to the position of commercial agent.
The position of commercial agent is a new one, and was created especially for Mr. Hoff.
WAS SHE GONE WITH OUT GOING...?
Its duties will call him out among the businessmen of the city, instead of keeping him cooped up in the little office in the southern part of the city as before, his business will be to work up trade for the road, and the growth of business the Missouri River has seen during the past few years is a sufficient indication of his qualifications for the place. The dry details of the office will be taken off his hands and the outside work which will fall upon his shoulders is much more to his liking.
Mr. Hoff has been wishing for this kind of a windfall for years, and now that it has come he is elated, as he has a right to be. The work is more agreeable and the pay is better, two considerations which are, of course, highly satisfactory. But the best part of the promotion, as he looks at it, is the fact that the company in making it completely exonerates him from all charges of crookedness that have been made against him. Whatever was wrong with the books has been credited up to his underling, where it belongs, and the charges which are made by the underling have been fully investigated. The fact of the promotion, tells, in a far clearer manner than words could, just what the officials of the company thought of Mr. Hoff's way of doing business.

Women's Relief Corps.
The local branch of the Women's Relief Corps held a special meeting yesterday afternoon in the Grand Army hall for the purpose of meeting Mrs. E. Flora Evans of Clinton, the president of the department of Iowa. The excellence of the showing made by the Women's Relief Corps in this city led Mrs. Evans to select it to exemplify the work of the order at the state convention which is to be held here next year. It is an honor of which the ladies are justly proud, and to which the high character of the work they have done during the past few years amply entitles them. In making her address, Mrs. Evans made some remarks which were of great interest to those present. In speaking of the work of the order, she said:
"Our order numbers increase now to 180,789, an increase of 13,218 during the past year. During the year money has been turned over to the posts amounting to $11,858; $14,683 have been expended for relief, and the clothing and other articles which have been turned over to the needy have amounted to $88,041. In 1885 forty charter members knocked at the door of the Grand Army of the Republic and asked to be admitted as their auxiliary. Ten years, and behold the army of noble women who now steadily march on the path marked out by the forty pioneers. "

BENNISON BROS.
Beautiful Evening on Manuwa.
Old timers who have seen Lake Manuwa in all of its phases of beauty, when reflecting the smiles of a perfect sky or lashed in fury by a storm, agree that they never saw the lake so beautiful as it was last night just before and after sunset. The surface was as smooth and polished as a mirror, and magnified in reflecting the rich coloring of sky and cloud. The only thing that broke the glassy surface was the ripple of a passing boat or the graceful sliding of a train of stately peacocks that had stopped to refresh themselves on their voyage around the world. There were many people to enjoy the perfect beauty of the scene, and those who had a spark of artistic instinct in their souls felt it stirred as it had never before. When the shadows grew denser and obscured all but the ghostly outlines of the lake shore, songs and music from a dozen boat tag parties added a new charm, and there was nothing wanting to make a picture that appealed to the better elements in the human composition.
There were several carriage and family parties from Omaha, including A. S. Potter and friends, who thoroughly enjoyed the evening.
There will be band music at the lake this evening, besides the other usual attractions, and if the conditions are anything nearly as favorable as they were last night an hour or two at the lake will afford exquisite enjoyment.
Piles of people have lines, but Dr. Witt's Witch Hazel Salve will cure theirs, today at the Boston Store.
In addition to our great blanket sale.
When we cut the prices, cost cuts no figure. The goods we have too many of, they must go; we knife them so that they won't stay with us; the money we must have.

Mr. Gerspacher has spent the greater part of his life in Council Bluffs and he invites both friends and enemies, if he has any enemies, to call on him Saturday evening. The rooms have been redecorated, and are the handsomest sample rooms in the west.
Bathing, Courtland beach. There is nothing in this country like the fruit kept in Wheeler, Herold & Co's cold storage. No matter what the weather is it reads the customer in perfect condition. Another carload of lemons was put in Saturday. Electrical stereopticon views at Courtland beach tonight.
Domestic soap outlasts cheap soap. Taylor's soap. Charles E. Brown, the pension inspector of this city, got a copy of THE BEE yesterday morning before he got out of bed and read in it the account of L. C. Taylor's doings and his supposed crookedness in regard to the pension which he has been drawing without being entitled to it. He immediately paid a visit to Sheriff Hizen and looked over the papers found in Taylor's possession. He stated that there was undoubtedly something wrong about him, and he is giving the case a thorough sifting. It is stated that a pension attorney named Webb, who lives in Washington, and through whom Taylor's pension was secured, is very likely to be implicated in a wrong doing before the investigation is completed.
Piles of people have piles, but Dowitt's Witch Hazel Salve will cure them.

Death of Contrary Moore.
Martin A. Moore died yesterday morning at 4 o'clock, aged 68 years. He had been ill ever since January 1, but the announcement of his death was a shock to his friends, who had hoped for his final recovery. The funeral will take place Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock from his late residence, 305 East Pierce Street. The deceased was born in Hartford, Conn., and was married in New York in 1858 to Miss Phoebe Anna Smith, who still survives. He moved from Ogdala, where he had lived for fifteen years, to this city in 1881 and over since his arrival has been a prominent contractor. He leaves three children, Byron, Edward and Anna.

PRIZE FIGHT ENDS IN DEATH
"Sailor Kid" Taylor of Denver Dies from the Effects of the Brutal Battle.
BAT MASTERSON IS NOW UNDER ARREST
1.1
He Was Three of the Right and One >r an Ingenious Kiplming of the
Restoration of the Real Art of Boxing.
DENVER, Aug. 4. As the result of a brutal prize fight at the rooms of the Ramblers' Cycling club last night Bobby Taylor, the "Sailor Kid" died, this afternoon. The fight lasted twenty-two rounds, at the end of which it was declared a draw. The "Sailor Kid's" opponent was "Kid" Robinson, a negro whom Taylor had defeated in a previous fight. The men fought at 121 pounds and when the fight was over both were badly used up and disfigured, although six-ounce gloves were used.
When Taylor began dressing after the fight he suddenly fainted and remained unconscious all night and today until he died. Bat Masterson, who refereed the fight and Dick Carruthers, the manager, together with the negro, Robinson, are under arrest. Masterson claims that Taylor's death was caused by falling and striking his head on a chair, just after the fight.
The "Sailor Kid" was matched to fight a Chicago featherweight on the night of the Grecoans-Creodon fight before the Columbian Athletic club on August 14. Taylor was also known as Lou Turner.
RACING RESULTS.
Ontario met with a Splendid Showing At the Buffalo Grand Circuit Races.
BUFFALO, Aug. 4. Three favorites won at the Buffalo track today and the talent had a good day of it. Ontario captured the 2:20 pacing stake in straight heats, and Marjorie was similarly fortunate in the 2:20 stake for 8-year-old trotters. Walter E won a great free-for-all trot, but it required considerable maneuvering and seven heats to decide the race. As the heats progressed the miles became slower and one by one the great free-for-alls fell by the wayside. When the bell sounded for the seventh heat Walter E, Hyland T and Martha Wilkes, the latter the most tired of the trio, were the only ones that remained. The split heat champion was the peer of the other two, and he landed the boat and race after one of the hardest fought struggles ever seen on a race track. Weather perfect and track fine.
Results:
2:20 class, pacing: Ontario won, Steel Prince second, Belle Wixon third. Best time: 2:11½.
Free-for-all trotting, purse $20,000: Walter E won, Kyli and T second, Martha Wilkes third, Nightingale fourth. Greenback fifth. Nightingale distanced in the fourth heat after having won one heat in the best time of the race, Three-year-olds, trotting, 2:20 class: Marjorie won, Ore Wilkes second, Noble third.

Philadelphia. 7 2
Washington. 0 1 1 0 0 0 2 0 7

BALTIMORE, Aug. 4. Washington's error gave Baltimore two of its three runs. Robinson's throwing to bases was like the weather—very rotten. Attendance, 2,000. Score: Baltimore 001 200 000-3 New York 6 Hits: Baltimore, 3; New York, 10. Errors: Baltimore, 6; New York, 1. Earned runs: New York 1. Stateries: McMahon and Robinson; Ruso and Milligan.
BROOKLYN, Aug. 4. The Brooklyn and Boston game postponed on account of rain. Start of the Ten at mile.
STARTS UP WITH A LOT OF THE NAVY.
LONDON, Aug. 4. In the royal yacht squadron today off the Isle of Wight, the Satalita finished first, the Valkyrie second, and Columbia third, the Navaho, the American yacht, last. Deducting the two minutes and five seconds allowed the Valkyrie by the Satanita, the latter won the race by four seconds. Before the first round was finished the wind, which had been gradually increasing in strength, was blowing hard, accompanied by heavy rain squalls. The Navaho made two tacks under land, while the other yachts made only one. This sailing put her further behind than she would probably have been had she made a single tack. The Satanita and Valkyrie kept close in each other's company.
A private race between the Meteor and the Iverna was won by the latter.
CYCLE CHAMPIONSHIP AT HASTINGS.
HASTINGS, Neb., Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The Hastings cycle races tonight were well attended, but the principal attraction did not show up. The results:
One-fourth mile: Wanzer first, 83 seconds; Lundquist second, Bigler third.
One-half mile boys' handicap: Stone (scratch) first, 1:23; Mosier (twenty-eight yards) second, Chapman (scratch) third.
One mile, open: Wanzer first, 2:41; Ed Wilson second, Will Wilson third.
Two-mile handicap: Stone (165 yards) first, 6:05; Urquhart third.
A race had been advertised between Landsburg and Curt Clark, but the latter did not show up. Landsburg made a mile in 2:41.
ANSLERY, Neb., Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The much advertised game of baseball between the Anslery and Haverland clubs was played here today in the presence of 300 or 400 people and was undoubtedly the most hotly contested game played in the state this season. The score stood 8 to 7 at the end of the ninth inning in favor of Anslery. The beautiful work of Lacy and Jellen, the battery for the home team, was what saved the day, a wild pitched ball being the only error. Jellen's curves were mysterious and only one or two safe hits were made off him. Considerable money changed hands on the result.
DAVID CITY, Neb., Aug. 4. [Special to THE BEE.] The Norton Base Ball club of David City defeated the celebrated Dobson boys of Ulysses yesterday by a score of 7 to 0. The features of the game were Dobson's all-around roaring and the square umpiring of Sylvester of Surprise. Batteries for Norton: Hainhardt and Slado; for Ulysses: Bishop and Thomas. Earned runs: Norton, 7; Ulysses, 0. Struck out: By Hainhardt, 13; by Bishop, 5. Home runs: Robert, Smith. Two-base hits: Slade, Strommen. Time of game: One hour and forty-five minutes.
NEW YORK, Aug. 4. Mr. F.F. Pratt, the representative of the Chicago navy who sailed for Europe June 0 for the purpose of securing entries for the international regatta, returned on the Germanic. He was unable to secure entries of either crews or individuals for the Chicago navy regatta owing to the fact that personal interests or illness of crews' members would prevent attendance at the dates specified for the races. People with piles, out Witt's Witch Hazel Salvo will cure them.

DRUGGED IN THE CRADLE.
Nursery is responsible for much inebriety.
Opium and Alcohol frequently given to infants, neglect of a baby's diet loads us with awful consequences.
The inebriety of later life is often the result of opium and alcohol given in some form to babies for trivial reasons. Nurses who have given children medicines for indigestion know how difficult it is to wean the child from the drug.
One great duty of parents to their children is, therefore, not to give them medicine, but to make sure that they get good, pure, ample, and capable of supplying the requirements of healthy growth and development.
When natural mother's milk is out of the question or insufficient for the enormous demands made by the rapidly growing child, infant food is prescribed by the physicians. It quickly makes chubby, rosy-faced, lively babies, the delight of mothers, fat, happy, and growing.
Mrs. Daniel Brown, 114 Cross Street, Central Park, Long Island:
"I have three of the most healthy little children in the state, and I must say that they owe their health to having been brought up on imitated food. One of the leading doctors in Brooklyn advised me to use it and I have always felt glad that I followed his advice. My youngest child is 14 months old and is as healthy and cheery as any little boy could be, and I am sure that imitated food has a great deal to do with it. It has been a great blessing to our little family, and I consider it my duty to recommend it to all my friends. They all have the same good word for it after they have tried it; it has only to be tried and the good results will be seen at once. I shall always feel grateful to the ones who placed imitated food within the reach of all, whether rich or poor."
Imitated food is in fact most economical, as it is most nourishing and healthful.

The tool that the gold rcdorvo of the
treasury IH ngnln up to iMOO.OOO.OOO , that
jiconstdorablo amount of gold Is on the
way to this country , that our o.xports ot
grain have materially increased , that n
largo addition to the circulation Is
promised nt an early dny In the form of
national bank currency , and that most
of the bunks which have suspended dur
ing the past two or thrco months are
preparing to resume , make n combina
tion of strong incentives to financial con-
fldunco which plight to bo widely folt. ANew
Now York paper ot a few days ago printed
interviews with n number of prominent
financiers in that city , all of whom ex
pressed the opinion that the country
had experienced the worst of the crisis
nnd that thenceforward a steady im
provement was to bo expected , Events
which have slnno happened have gene
far to verify this judgment.
In a tlmoly artlclo suggesting that it
is time to brnco up the Philadelphia
Anicrkun observes , that it IB very much
to be desired that the American pcoplo
generally would fully realize and con
stantly bear in mind the important
fact that the enormous depression
which has tnkon place since the
IIrat of the year in the market ; price
of stocks nnd bonds does not represent
any corresponding shrinkage in the real
wealth of tlio country. "In all the es
sential elements of wealth , " says that
paper , "tho United States is richer
today than it was six months ago by the
product of six months' labor nnd devel
opment. There has boon no waste of
the national resources , nor any visible
impairment in the earning capacity of
the enterprises in which the capital of
the people is invested. " Anybody who
wilt consider the situation calmly and
without prejudice will concede that this
view is essential ly sound.
There is another consideration sug
gested by the Amcrlcun that is too little
thought of. That is that the re is noth
ing in any of the dangers by which the
country * is thought to ho threatened
which can compare with the experiences
through which it has safely passed. It
is more favorably situated , for example ,
thun it was twenty years ago , when the
war bill was still to pay , nnd the ox-
trnvagnncics of the yours immediately
following the war , when people lived
and spent and speculated as though
there never was to bo a day of reckoning ,
were still to bo settled for. Wo then
had a depreciated paper cur
rency no provision for whoso redemp
tion had yet begun to bo made and the
national debt amounted to $2.35 per
capita , whereas now it amounts toonly
about 30 cents per head of population.
Twenty years ago wo were enormously
in debt to Europe , having during the
ton years preceding 1873 boon depleted
of our gold to pay the balance of trade
that hud boon steadily piling up against
us , aggregating for that period of ex
traordinary speculation nnd overtrad
ing moro than a thousand million
dollars. Yet the country survived
all this , which put a vastly greater
strain upon its resources nnd 54 =
recuperative powers than they are now
experiencing , und having passed through
it the American people moved forward
to the resumption of specie payments
nnd to a subsequent era of almost unex
ampled prosperity.
Remembering the severer crises
through which the country has passed ,
when the conditions to recovery were
far loss favorable than now , nnd consid
ering the promise of largo crops , for
which A ready market is assured , there is
manifestly reason to look hopefully to
the future nnd give hoed to the admoni
tion that it is time to brace up.
JULY
The mortality report of the Board of
Health for the month of July is apt , on
its face , to give a wrong impression con
cerning the health Till ness of this city.
A person who roads that the number of
recorded deaths was 131 , an increase of
fifteen ever the highest number recorded
for nny previous period of similar length ,
might be tempted to infer thut the sani
tary condition of Omaha was rapidly de
teriorating. The figures given out by
the health officers , nowovor , may sig
nify so many different things that It is
altogether rash to accept an assumption
which may bo only apparent and not
real.
In the first place , mortality is moro
marked in the early auo periods. Of
157 burials , seventy were of children
under 1 year nnd olghty-nino of those
under 5 'years. A shifting of the ago
classification of the population may
inako remarkable differences in the uv-
orago death rate. The increase may ,
therefore , lw duo chiefly to an incrousod
birth rate or to'tho emigration of largo
numbers of the adult residents , or to
both. Then , again , violent deaths , oc
curring mainly among adults , were par
ticularly numerous in July , adding up a
total of sixteen.
The mortality record may give n oluo
to the relative hcalthfulnoss of different
portions of the city , but here , also , the
limitations must bo constantly borne In
mind. The number of deaths must
always bo considered in relation to tlio
population of the district. Tlio distri
bution by wards , us also the census re
turns for 1890 , uro shown in the follow
ing table :
Wards. 1'oimlntlon 1BOO. July Deaths.

The Booming inconsistencies nro
largely to bo explained by 'tho chur-
notor iuul thu ago classification of the
population. The greatest mortality un
doubtedly appears umong the poorest [ >
residence districts. The low number in
the Third wnrd is probably traceable
to the fact that its population is ulmost
exclusively adult. Then , too , the dis
tribution of the population may have
altered greatly since the federal census
WUB taken three years ago.
The health board wisely refrains from
giving the public a death ruto per
thousand. Such a figure would necessa
rily bo hypothetical , since it would have
to bo based upon an estimated population
schedule. Computations of this kind I
nro extremely hazardous and likely to
load to serious blunders. The figures
I given afford nmplo opportunity for com
parison so long as they nro derived from
similar data. These tot July , When
properly interpreted ) Rlvo no great
causa for" alarm.

It was In September , 1700 , thnt George
Washington mndo public his fnrowoll
mhlrcss to the American peoplo. It 'Is
In August , 18)3 ! ) , that Horace U6lcs
issues his fnrowoll address to the pcoplo
of Iowa. The name of President Wash

was to be made. Only ft solicitude for
the welfare of the pcoplo urged him to
join to his declination an expression of
certain sentiments which to him scorned
all-Important to the permanency of the
felicity of the pcoplo of the United
States. '
Perhaps it is nothing ronlarkabliftliat
Governor Holes hns hoard his 11111116 BO

nomination to his olllcoth'nt ho ,
too , is compelled to bolJovo that
anything loss than a formal dec
laration of his views would
be taken ay n tacit consent to quoh , xiso
of his nnmo. Governor Doles , more
over , lias nlso been induced by the
solemnity of the occasion to udd a little
parting advice which ho imagines will
result in the continued domimuico of his
party in Iowa. The solicitude of the
governor , however , Is not for the Amer
ican people nor oven for the people of
Iowa. His broud-mfnded
- patriotism ad
dresses itself solely to the chairman of
the democratic state control committee
nnd is given to the press merely
In order thnt it may roach
these voters who aubscribo to the demo
cratic faith. While Washington gave
iidvico looking toward the permanency of
the union , Governor Boies givoa advice
looking toward the pormunoiicy of par
tisan control.
Washington's words are acknowledged
to bo iv sincere nnd disinterested furo-
well ; Boies' letter heoms to bo n cunning
bid for further favors. The platitudes
in respect to a third term of ollico would
sound very commonplace were it not
for a slight innuendo which they may
appear to throw upon the possible
future aspirations cf the present
democratic president. Governor Boies' '
conscientious opposition to third
terms may bo intended as a gentle re
minder to his moro successful competitor
for political honors , Grover Cleveland.
As for Governor Boies himself , his
scruples are altogether gratuitous inas
much as the chances that a rcnomina-
tion would lead to a re-election are
such that ho does not care to sacrifice
himself further. Ho is still too wise
to decline the senator-ship before it
is olTered to him nnd the republican
legislature may bo rolled upon to relieve
him of any embarrassment in thnt direc
tion. In ono point Governor Boies has
improved upon Washington in the
brevity of his farewell address ; for this
wo should all be duly thankful.
T//B QUKSTHffi OP HATIO.
The platform of the free silverltes
adopted nt Chicago declares ' 'that the
only remedy for our metallic financial
troubles is to open the mints of the
nation to gold nnd silver on equal terms ,
at the old ratio of 10 of silver to 1 of
gold. " While tins reprosdnts the view
of a very largo majority of the free sil
ver men some of them are rational
enough to see and candid enough to
admit that in order to bring the two
metals to n purity a change of ratio will
bo necessary. The radical element pro
fess-to believe thut the free < k > inugo of
silver at the present ratio would
make 4123 ; grains of standard sil
ver worth 10Q cents , and that when
this was done in the United States thut
amount of silver would bo worth the
same everywhere else. Every jirnctica
financier will see at once , wo have no
doubt , thnt this is a preposterous as-
8nmptlon'witliout warrant in experience
nnd unsupported by anything in the re
lations of gold and silver as now estab
lished by the leading nations of the
world.
This country should not and will not
abandon bimetallism. It is not proposed
to give up silver as a part of our mone
tary system. That motul i will con
tinuo to do Borvlco as currency ,
but in. order that in that capac
ity it may not expel gold from
like service it is essential that the ratio
between the two metals shall bo
changed. At the present prtct > of sliver
bullion iho ruth ) is not fur from 30 to 1
so that the silver in a dollar is roall.
worth less than 00 cents. Probably none
ono would propose to establish tlio ratio
according to the prevailing price for M
vor bullion , though it could not b
claimed that to do so would bo Unfair o
unjust. A reasonable compromise wajtld
bo found in u ratio of 20 or 23 to 1
nnd it is to bo expected that n
proposition of this kind will bo
nmdo. Doubtless it will bo opposed
by the oxtrerao silver men who
urc in sympathy with the mine owners ,
und the rouHon for opposition on the "part1
of the latior is entirely obvious , but
such n proposition , if made , will bo very
llkoly to prevail , und if It should any
ratio between 20 and 25 to 1 thnt may bo
adopted will undoubtedly become the
world's ratio for gold and silver coinage ,
Wo uro not unmindful of the objec
I tions to uuch a change of ratio on the
grounds thut the silver dollar would
1i
have to bo very much larger in size und
therefore more inconvenient for circula
tion , nnd nlso that It would
entail u considerable loss to the
government on the silver it now owns
both us coin and bullion. As to the first
of these objections it IB porhnps bulli-
cient to say that a comparatively small
proportion of the silver dollars now
coined enters into general circulation ,
BO thut the change could not bo very
serious in this respect , while if the now
coinage were made available for bunk
reserves it would release enough of
other currency to more than take the
place of the silver dollars now in circu-
lutiou. Besides , there could bo no ob-
joction to coining half dollars of the
same standard of value nnd making them
a legal tender. As to the loss the gov
ernment would ntstnln , which would
bo considerable , it could hardly
bo greater than Itff'fl't inevitably suffer
it the present poll'AVliould bo continued
long enough to work out its certain con
sequences. . . . . .
The oxtromlslsjyi both sides of the
fill vor question maya be expected to nn-
tngonlzo nny proposal to change the
ratio between the Iwy metals , but there
is reason to belitvp that neither the
golditos nor the Tad leaf sllvorites will
have tholr way and ! that the rational
nnd practical frloi s f bimetallism will
finally bo successful in retaining silver
as n part of our currency on n basis that
will insure its parity with gold for years
to como , perhaps compel other nations
to adopt n Hko ratio , and thus nvort the
danger thnt now thrcatoni our financial
system. There is no more simple , di
rect nnd certain remedy for the mone
tary dllllciilty thnt confronts Us , and in
adopting It wo should show something
of that independence which the free sil
ver advocates so urgently counsel. .
THE Influence ot Nebraska In the east

The result was the precipitation
of a run on the bank which at ono

institution. It was only with the

succeeded in explaining the source of
the mistake. Hero is an opportunity

If Franco profits by her eoursft in Slfttn ,

seeking to carry out by brute force. It
gees further now than It probably ever

for colonization purposes there might bo
some ground of sympathy with her , but she
does not want and will not use ttio territory

do not emigrate to any great extent , and
when they do they keep uway from the far

In the ovcnt of tbo death of Queen Chris
tiua of Sualu , who is ill , the regency will de
volve upon the Infanta Isabella , cldost sister
of the late king nnd tlio widow of the ex-
king of Naples * epileptic brother , tbo count
of Gtrgcnti. The princess is diametrically
onposod to Queen Christina's liberal policy
and bus as great faith in the conservative
loader , Canovas , ns her royal sister-in-law
places In Satrasta. Twice during the last
seven years hns Canovas brought thu coun
try to the verge ot revolution by bis reac
tionary methods of government , and each
time the crisis has been averted at tbo last
moment by the queen regent dismissing him
in order to iruilco way for the advent to of-
11 co of the liberal loader , Sagnsta. Princess
Isabella's ' accession to the regency would on-
tall , therefore , tbo return to power of Cano
vas and the revival of all that republican
nnd Carlist agitation against the throne
which characterized his last administrations.
The people of Spain , and not alone the pco
plo , but also tliu parish clergy throughout
the land , are essentially democratic at heart ,
and , having been initiated by Sagasla into
liberal doctrines , will bo unwilling to permit
either the princess regent or Senor Canovas
to deprive them of their newly -won liberties
and prerogatives or to reduce them once
moro to that state of political nonentity
which used formerly to cause foreigners to
assert with some justice thnt Spain was at
least a century behind every other country
in Europe. Homarkably strong-minded ,
bigoted , und possessed of all tnat obstinacy
for which .tho members of tlio house of
Bourbon are celebrated , the Infanta Isabella
would soon llnd herself face to face with a
republican revolution , aud the only means
by which she might possibly bo able to save

Among the principal events of the past
month was the completion of the Corinth
canal , which was begun , in the flrst place ,
eighteen centuries ago , under the reign of
the KOIIKHI pmporor , Nero. Even 500 huu
drcd 3 oars previous o that era a scheme for
cutting a canal across the isthmus was put
forward by Pcriander , but was abandoned
on the advice of the Pythla or onicla of
Delphi , who declared that any such project
would outail the auger of the gods , since , if
Zeus had wished to make 1111 island of the
sou thorn * portion of Greece , ho would certainly -
tainly not luivo left intafct the strip of terri
tory that connects it with the main land. It
was not , however , until after the success

the work of piercing thu Isthmus was
resumed under tbo direction of the Hun
garian patriot and revolutionary leader ,
General Turr , married to u sister of that
lieutenant , Bonaparte Wyso , whoso name is
so closely associated with the unfortunate
Panama canal undertaking. General I'urr
began operations m 1882 , and ulthouch the
canal Is only about four miles in length , yet ,
owing to the failure of the llrst company

it includes a yearly tribute to the sultan ,
from which the next European war will
probably sot the principality froo.
The tariff warfare that h&s boon declared
between Hussia and Germany VT ill tend to
anything but an iuiprovementof thopolitical
relations of those countries. It is probable
however , that this commercial war , so in- (
jurlous to both , will bo of short duration.
An increase of 50 per cent ou existing rales
sf duty will amount practically to an embargo
barge upou reciprocal trade. But neither
country Is generally dependent upon the
other , notwithstanding the propinquity
of their territories. Germany cau
draw her supplies of wheat from
the United States and India , and Hus
sia can trade with England aud
other countries for innttufncturcd eommodt-
lies. While ihU in true of the Rpnernl twdo

bcrm a prontnblo market for the Agricultural
product * of tlio fertile Uuulun province *
lying next the Gorman borders. At the
same tlmo these * provinces hnto afforded n
convenient market for many manufac
tures of Germany. In this condition of
things It will not bo long until the embargo
upon trade shall bo keenly felt In all those
soottont of Germany nnd Russia lying con
tiguous to each other. From these provinces
the discontent will spread ever both em-
plrcs ; and there wilt bo a stronc demand
( in Germany , nt least ) for a reduction of
duties.

The daily press may be expected to make the most of the fact that a silver man, Silverman, has suspended in New York. Silver men have but little show on Wall Street, and the banker who is handicapped by such a name should emigrate to Colorado.
THE fact that greenbacks are worth more than gold in New York will undoubtedly create intense enthusiasm in the ranks of the men who wish to flood the country with an unlimited issue of the paper dollar based solely upon the faith of the government.
THE public will not be inclined to sympathize with the employees of the Leadville Sentinel who inaugurated a strike the other day because of a reduction in wages. A small loss is much better than no bread at all in these days when so many men in the silver states are being thrown out of employment altogether.
IT IS now hinted that the cold storage holocaust at the World's Fair was of incendiary origin and the result of a gigantic conspiracy. If investigation should disclose any actual foundation for this charge, the perpetrators should not be dismissed until they shall have paid the highest penalty which the law inflicts for crimes of so serious a nature.
EVERY city in the country seems to be trying to outdo its neighbors in making a show of the unemployed within its boundaries. The evident purpose of these disclosures is to discourage prospective immigrants from pouring into the great cities. The best thing for the unfortunate laborer to do at the present time is to remain just where he is. His efforts to better his condition by migrating are apt to end in speedy disappointment.
TALK, as mirrored in the clearing house reports, shows little improvement, the tabulation given by Broadway's indicating that the contraction of business is still general. But the reviews of the week furnished by both the Dun and Broadway agencies warrant the conclusion that the bottom of the hole has about been touched and that the recovery curve is near at hand. Broadway conservatively reviews the conditions and begins to suggest that better times are not far in the future. The features of this week were the inward movement of gold and the outward movement of wheat. There is now on passage gold to the amount of $813,500,000, and 40 percent more wheat than at this period last year.
S. 30 CURRENCY,
The fact that the gold reserve of the treasury is again up to $100,000,000, that considerable amount of gold is on the way to this country, that our exports of grain have materially increased, that a large addition to the circulation is promised at an early day in the form of national bank currency, and that most of the banks which have suspended during the past two or three months are preparing to resume, make a combination of strong incentives to financial confidence which might be widely felt.
A New York paper of a few days ago printed interviews with a number of prominent financiers in that city, all of whom expressed the opinion that the country had experienced the worst of the crisis and that thenceforward a steady improvement was to be expected. Events which have since happened have gone far to verify this judgment.
In a thoughtful article suggesting that it is time to brace up the Philadelphia American, observes that it is very much to be desired that the American people generally would fully realize and constantly bear in mind the important fact that the enormous depression which has taken place since the start of the year in the market prices of stocks and bonds does not represent any corresponding shrinkage in the real wealth of the country. "In all the essential elements of wealth," says that paper, "the United States is richer today than it was six months ago by the product of six months' labor and development. There has been no waste of the national resources, nor any visible impairment in the earning capacity of the enterprises in which the capital of the people is invested." Anybody who will consider the situation calmly and without prejudice will concede that this view is essentially sound.
There is another consideration suggested by the American that is too little thought of. That is that there is nothing in any of the dangers by which the country is thought to be threatened which can compare with the experiences through which it has safely passed. It is more favorably situated, for example, than it was twenty years ago, when the war bill was still to pay, and the extravaagances of the years immediately following the war, when people lived and spent and speculated as though there never was to be a day of reckoning, were still to be settled for. We then had a depreciated paper currency, no provision for whose redemption had yet begun to be made and the national debt amounted to $2.35 per capita, whereas now it amounts to only about 30 cents per head of population. Twenty years ago we were enormously in debt to Europe, having during the ten years preceding 1873 been depleted of our gold to pay the balance of trade that had been steadily piling up against us, aggregating for that period of extraordinary speculation and over-trading more than a thousand million dollars. Yet the country survived all this, which put a vastly greater strain upon its resources and recuperative powers than they are now experiencing, and having passed through it the American people moved forward to the resumption of specie payments and to a subsequent era of almost unparalleled prosperity.
Remembering the severer crises through which the country has passed, when the conditions to recovery were far less favorable than now, and considering the promise of large crops, for which a ready market is assured, there is manifestly reason to look hopefully to the future and give heed to the admonition that it is time to brace up.
JULY
The mortality report of the Board of Health for the month of July is apt, on its face, to give a wrong impression concerning the healthfulness of this city. A person who reads that the number of recorded deaths was 131, an increase of fifteen over the highest number recorded for any previous period of similar length, might be tempted to infer that the sanitary condition of Omaha was rapidly deteriorating. The figures given out by the health officers, however, may signify so many different things that it is altogether rash to accept an assumption which may be only apparent and not real.
In the first place, mortality is more marked in the early summer periods. Of 157 burials, seventy were of children under one year and eighty-nine of those under five years. A shifting of the age classification of the population may make remarkable differences in the average death rate. The increase may, therefore, be due chiefly to an increased birth rate or to the emigration of large numbers of the adult residents, or to both. Then, again, violent deaths, occurring mainly among adults, were particularly numerous in July, adding up a total of sixteen.
The mortality record may give an clue to the relative healthfulness of different portions of the city, but here, also, the limitations must be constantly borne in mind. The number of deaths must always be considered in relation to the population of the district. The distribution by wards, as also the census returns for 1890, are shown in the following table:
Wards. Population 1890. July Deaths.
First, 10,008 41
Second 17,531 34
Third, 21,001 8
Fourth, 10,001 11
Fifth 18,017 14
Sixth 19,680 27
Seventh 18,730 13
Eighth 17,178 10
Ninth, 18,731 6
The discrepancies are largely to be explained by the characteristic and the age classification of the population. The greatest mortality undoubtedly appears among the poorest residence districts. The low number in the Third ward is probably traceable to the fact that its population is almost exclusively adult. Then, too, the distribution of the population may have altered greatly since the federal census was taken three years ago.
The health board wisely refrains from giving the public a death rate per thousand. Such a figure would necessarily be hypothetical, since it would have to be based upon an estimated population schedule. Computations of this kind are extremely hazardous and likely to lead to serious blunders. The figures given afford ample opportunity for comparison so long as they are derived from similar data. These for July, when properly interpreted, give no great cause for alarm.
D. 75/KV FARMERS,
It was in September, 1790, that George Washington made public his farewell address to the American people. It is in August, 1893, that Horace Kayser issues his farewell address to the people of Iowa. The name of President Washington had been so often mentioned in connection with a nomination for president in the then approaching campaign that he was compelled to believe it proper to apprise the citizens of the resolution he had formed to decline being considered among those out of whom a choice was to be made. Only a solicitude for the welfare of the people urged him to join to his declination an expression of certain sentiments which to him seemed all-important to the permanency of the felicity of the people of the United States.
Perhaps it is nothing remarkable that Governor Kayser has heard his name so often mentioned in connection with a nomination to his office that he, too, is compelled to believe that anything less than a formal declaration of his views would be taken as a tacit consent to quo, i.e., use of his name. Governor Kayser, moreover, has also been induced by the solemnity of the occasion to add a little parting advice which he imagines will result in the continued dominance of his party in Iowa. The solicitude of the governor, however, is not for the American people nor even for the people of Iowa. His broad-minded patriotism addresses itself solely to the chairman of the democratic state control committee and is given to the press merely in order that it may reach these voters who subscribe to the democratic faith. While Washington gave advice looking toward the permanency of the union, Governor Kayser gives advice looking toward the permanency of partisan control.
Washington's words are acknowledged to be sincere and disinterested farewell; Kayser's letter seems to be a cunning bid for further favors. The platitudes in respect to a third term of office would sound very commonplace were it not for a slight innuendo which they may appear to throw upon the possible future aspirations of the present democratic president. Governor Kayser's conscientious opposition to third terms may be intended as a gentle reminder to his more successful competitor for political honors, Grover Cleveland.
As for Governor Kayser himself, his scruples are altogether gratuitous inasmuch as the chances that a renomination would lead to a re-election are such that he does not care to sacrifice himself further. He is still too wise to decline the senatorship before it is offered to him and the republican legislature may be rolled upon to relieve him of any embarrassment in that direction. In one point Governor Kayser has improved upon Washington in the brevity of his farewell address; for this we should all be duly thankful.
THE QUESTIONS OF THE NATION.
The platform of the free silver movement adopted at Chicago declares that the only remedy for our monetary troubles is to open the mints of the nation to gold and silver on equal terms, at the old ratio of 10 of silver to 1 of gold. While this represents the view of a very large majority of the free silver men, some of them are rational enough to see and candid enough to admit that in order to bring the two metals to a purity, a change of ratio will be necessary. The radical element professes to believe that the free coinage of silver at the present ratio would make 4123 grains of standard silver worth 100 cents, and that when this was done in the United States, that amount of silver would be worth the same everywhere else. Every practical financier will see at once, we have no doubt, that this is a preposterous assumption without warrant in experience and unsupported by anything in the relations of gold and silver as now established by the leading nations of the world.
This country should not and will not abandon bimetallism. It is not proposed to give up silver as a part of our monetary system. That money will continue to do service as currency, but in order that in that capacity it may not expel gold from like service, it is essential that the ratio between the two metals shall be changed. At the present price of silver bullion, the ratio is not far from 30 to 1, so that the silver in a dollar is really worth less than 60 cents. Probably none would propose to establish the ratio according to the prevailing price for silver bullion, though it could not be claimed that to do so would be unfair or unjust. A reasonable compromise would be found in a ratio of 20 or 23 to 1, and it is to be expected that a proposition of this kind will be made. Doubtless it will be opposed by the extreme silver men who are in sympathy with the mine owners, and the reason for opposition on the part of the latter is entirely obvious, but such a proposition, if made, would be very likely to prevail, and if it should, any ratio between 20 and 25 to 1 that may be adopted will undoubtedly become the world's ratio for gold and silver coinage.
We are not unmindful of the objections to such a change of ratio on the grounds that the silver dollar would have to be very much larger in size and therefore more inconvenient for circulation, and also that it would entail a considerable loss to the government on the silver it now owns both as coin and bullion. As to the first of these objections, it is perhaps sufficient to say that a comparatively small proportion of the silver dollars now coined enters into general circulation, so that the change could not be very serious in this respect, while if the new coinage were made available for bank reserves it would release enough of other currency to more than take the place of the silver dollars now in circulation. Besides, there could be no objection to coining half dollars of the same standard of value and making them a legal tender. As to the loss the government would suffer, which would be considerable, it could hardly be greater than it inevitably would suffer if the present policy were to be continued long enough to work out its certain consequences.
The extremists on both sides of the silver question may be expected to antagonize any proposal to change the ratio between the two metals, but there is reason to believe that neither the goldists nor the radical silverites will have their way and that the rational and practical forces of bimetallism will finally be successful in retaining silver as a part of our currency on a basis that will insure its parity with gold for years to come, perhaps compel other nations to adopt a like ratio, and thus avert the danger that now threatens our financial system. There is no more simple, direct, and certain remedy for the monetary difficulty that confronts us, and in adopting it we should show something of that independence which the free silver advocates so urgently counsel.
The influence of Nebraska in the east has recently been seen to assume an altogether new phase. When a Jewish paper announced to the Brooklyn residents of the east side of New York that the "Nebraska State bank" had suspended, they failed to understand the reference and immediately inferred that the bank meant was the State bank of that city, in which their savings were deposited, and that "Nebraska" meant poor or bad. The result was the precipitation of a run on the bank which at one time threatened to prove serious for that institution. It was only with the greatest difficulty that the bank officials succeeded in explaining the source of the mistake. Here is an opportunity for students to trace the philosophy of the name of our great state. If "Nebraska" signifies poor, what does Nebraska signify?
Men who witnessed the proceedings of the populist national convention in this city on July 4, 1892, and who later saw the session of the Bimetallic league in Chicago this week, have had difficulty in convincing themselves that they were not attending a reconvened assembly of the earlier gathering. The leading lights were largely the same in both conventions and the character of the utterances on the two occasions would compare favorably with one another. Is there really anything more than a distinction without a difference?
It is to be hoped that the railroads will not make further reductions in their forces here. It is not just to visit upon the people of this city and state the misfortunes of western states through which the roads run. Nebraska is all right and the traffic of this state is bound to be the mainstay of Nebraska roads this fall.
The trials of President Cleveland have only begun, as was told the other day that he now represents no longer the democratic party. Now the Virginia populists denounce him for attempting "to consummate the fraud of 1873." The president is still in undisturbed retirement at Buzzard's Bay.

A Clue to Finding the Solution.
Louisville Courier-Journal,
Perhaps, after things quiet down at Denver now, that lone individual in the recent silver convention who was indignantly howled down because he started out by saying, "Let us be reasonable," may find an opportunity to finish his remarks.
The Other Side of It.
CbMO Inter Oct.
People may well be profoundly thankful that while the financial troubles are here it is a time of general health and the danger from the dreaded scourge will be well over by another month. The nation can easily recover from temporary losses, but the ravages of the plague leave the people stricken and sorrowful for the years to come.
Speak Plain and Look Plausible.
HimonaAdvertiser.
Without departing a hair's breadth from truth, without abutting from sight any regrettable - grotesque fact, without the least bit of whistling to keep one's courage up, every business man whose views are sought on the municipal outlook can legitimately speak words of good cheer. He can point to grand spaces of bright sky overflowing and above the floating clouds. He can call attention to the wonderful American harvests and increasing European demand for our broad-stuffs. He can cite the heavy setting this way of the tide of cold All\-eountain, amounting to no less than 9,000,000 for a single year. He can strengthen his argument by the declarations of many high authorities east, west and south, who affirm their full belief that the present stringency is only temporary.
An Equinox,
Chairman Warner, of the bimetallic convention at Chicago, begins by stating an old and long-disputed falsehood to the effect that members of Congress, the speaker of the house who signed the act of 1873, and the president who approved it, never knew that it demonetized silver, Mr. Warner said: "There was but one man in the United States Senate who knew that the act of 1873 demonetized silver, and yet he has never been hung or shot for treason."
This is utterly and completely false. The bill was before Congress and the country for about four years, and in 1878 the secretary of the treasury recommended such alterations in the mint bill as would 'prohibit the coinage of silver for circulation in this country.' In carrying out this policy the trade dollar was authorized. The Bimetallic league will not accomplish much if it bases its work on falsehoods disproved by the easily accessible reports of debates in Congress.
TRUTH IN TIMBERS
If France profits by her course in Slfttn, the theory that all things right themselves in this world will be badly shattered. The real origin of the quarrel is French greed. Many years ago, when the king of Annam died, he left two sons, who disputed over the succession. Annam then paid tribute to Siam, which possessed unquestioned suzerain rights. One of the sons entered into an intrigue with France, whereby he agreed to cede territory in return for French aid. He got the aid, but Siam properly denied his right to cede the territory. France was angered, but it dared not undertake then to enforce such an unjust claim, but it has harbored designs which it is now seeking to carry out by brute force. It goes further now than it probably ever dreamed of doing at that time, and claims territory over which the king of Annam never exercised authority, even if he made claim to it. The way in which the blockade has been established, without due notice to England, seems to furnish ground for the charge that duplicity is shown in Paris as well as greed, and the exercise of brute force in Siam. If France needed territory for colonization purposes there might be some ground of sympathy with her, but she does not want and will not use the territory for any such purpose. The French people do not emigrate to any great extent, and when they do they keep away from the far east. Exclusive of the military, there is a mere handful of Frenchmen in the territory now held by France in Asia. Deaths exceed the births among the native population of France. If it were not for immigration the population of France would decrease. It is the only nation of Europe which does not need any territory to provide for its growing population.
In the event of the death of Queen Christina of Sweden, who is ill, the regency will devolve upon the Infanta Isabella, eldest sister of the late king and the widow of the ex-king of Naples, epileptic brother, the count of Garenti. The princess is diametrically opposed to Queen Christina's liberal policy and has as great faith in the conservative leader, Canovas, as her royal sister-in-law places in Sagasta. Twice during the last seven years has Canovas brought the country to the verge of revolution by his reactionary methods of government, and each time the crisis has been averted at the last moment by the queen regent dismissing him in order to make way for the advent to power of the liberal leader, Sagasta. Princess Isabella's accession to the regency would therefore, entail, therefore, the return to power of Canovas and the revival of all that republican and Carlist agitation against the throne which characterized his last administrations.
The people of Spain, and not alone the people, but also the parish clergy throughout the land, are essentially democratic at heart, and, having been initiated by Sagasta into liberal doctrines, will be unwilling to permit either the princess regent or Senor Canovas to deprive them of their newly-won liberties and prerogatives or to reduce them once more to that state of political nonentity which used formerly to cause foreigners to assert with some justice that Spain was at least a century behind every other country in Europe. Remarkably strong-minded, bigoted, and possessed of all that obstinacy for which the members of the house of Bourbon are celebrated, the Infanta Isabella would soon find herself face to face with a republican revolution, and the only means by which she might possibly be able to save her little nephew's throne would be by surrendering the office of regent of Spain to her younger and infinitely more popular, as well as more democratic, sister, our recent charming visitor, Dona Eulalia.
Among the principal events of the past month was the completion of the Corinth canal, which was begun, in the first place, eighteen centuries ago, under the reign of the Roman emperor, Nero. Even 500 hundred years previous to that era a scheme for cutting a canal across the isthmus was put forward by Pericles, but was abandoned on the advice of the Pythia or oracle of Delphi, who declared that any such project would offend the anger of the gods, since, if Zeus had wished to make an island of the southern portion of Greece, he would certainly not leave intact the strip of territory that connects it with the main land. It was not, however, until after the successful opening of the Suez canal that the work of piercing the Isthmus was resumed under the direction of the Hungarian patriot and revolutionary leader, General Turin, married to a sister of that lieutenant, Bonaparte Wysocki, whose name is so closely associated with the unfortunate Panama canal undertaking. General Turin began operations in 1882, and although the canal is only about four miles in length, yet, owing to the failure of the first company formed for its construction and to the difficulty of obtaining the necessary funds, it has taken seventeen years to bring the work to completion. It was on July 17 that the waters of the Gulf of Lopanto first mingled with those of the Aegean sea, although the official opening of the canal did not take place until more than a fortnight later. The voyage between Corfu and Athens is now reduced nearly 200 miles by the new waterway, besides which the vessels will be spared the dangerous rounding of the southern headlands of Greece, which from time immemorial have enjoyed a most evil reputation among mariners.
Bulgaria has a population of 3,154,000 in a territory of some 40,000 square miles; its chief cities are the capital, Sofia, with 10,000 people; Philippopolis, with 60,000; Huchuchelt, with 27,000, and Varna, on the Black Sea, with 25,000. The people are chiefly rural, more so than in Greece, where Athens alone has more population than all these Bulgarian cities to say nothing of Patras, Piraeus, etc., that are larger than Bulgarian towns. But there are 70,000 inhabitants more in all Bulgaria than in the kingdom of Greece. The Bulgarian army is not only better drilled and armed than that of Greece, but almost twice as great; for it is rated at nearly 10,000 men, while the Greek army, since the latest reductions, is less than 15,000 effectives. The Bulgarians are armed with the Mannlicher rifle, said to be the best of recent weapons, and they have the name of being very good soldiers, the opposite being said of the Greeks. The Bulgarian receipts and expenses are each about 1,300,000 francs, or $18,000,000 a year, of which more than a quarter is spent on the army. The national debt is only 130,000,000 francs, say $20,000,000, the smallest debt in Europe, and but a mere fraction of the debt of Greece, with which that Balkan kingdom is not struggling in order to pay even the interest. The Bulgarian interest charge is high, because it includes a yearly tribute to the sultan, from which the next European war will probably set the principality free.
The tariff warfare that has been declared between Russia and Germany will not tend to anything but an improvement of the political relations of those countries. It is probable, however, that this commercial war, so injurious to both, will be of short duration. An increase of 50 percent on existing rates of duty will amount practically to an embargo upon reciprocal trade. But neither country is generally dependent upon the other, notwithstanding the propinquity of their territories. Germany can draw her supplies of wheat from the United States and India, and Russia can trade with England and other countries for manufactured commodities. While this is true of the present two-thirds of the two countries, Germany has long been a probable market for the agricultural products of the fertile Bulgarian provinces lying next the German borders. At the same time, these provinces have afforded a convenient market for many manufactured goods of Germany. In this condition of things, it will not be long until the embargo upon trade shall be keenly felt in all those portions of Germany and Russia lying contiguous to each other. From these provinces, the discontent will spread to both empires; and there will be a strong demand (in Germany, at least) for a reduction of duties.
Minneapolis Journal: This whole movement of the silver economic militants is incendiary and destructive.
Denver News: The resolutions adopted by the Chicago silver convention cover the subject in a forcible manner.
Cincinnati Commercial: The babble of the silver lunatics at Chicago is evidence of the fact that the heat on the west shore of Lake Michigan produces curious effects on some men's powers of reason.
Kansas City Star: Senator Allen of Nebraska wants it understood that he did not go to the silver convention at Chicago to talk politics, but merely to call the attention of the meeting to the fact that the populists are bowling on the right alloy.
Minneapolis Times: Now that the silver question is ever no doubt the congressional mind has more strongly converged to the safety point. There is a stronger probability that the incendiary and anarchistic proceedings at Chicago will warn Congress of the folly of temporizing with silver as a monetary standard.
Chicago Post: We are glad these silver cranks are gone. They were better never met unless their meeting may serve better to advertise the folly of their cause. The wise, sober, and dignified men of the silver party, men like Wolcott, Teller, Stewart, and Bland, did not come near them because they knew how irresponsible a gang was coming. The ridiculous Walton of Colorado is about the measure of the crowd. What matters it how such fellows talk? Since they saw fit to meet, that was their privilege, but we are glad they're gone and can only hope they have paid their board bills.
Kansas City Times: The real friends of bimetallism hoped for something now from this convention at least an honest proposition to put 100 cents worth of silver into a dollar, some real ideas that would form a basis for confidence in their proposals. We did not get them, but instead, we heard inflammatory speeches and threats and ancient fallacies that were long since exploded. We have the same old promises and theories and prophesies that were urged by the silverites in behalf of the Sherman law, and that have proven false. Their counsels have brought us to the verge of financial ruin, and it is time to call a halt.

Ho arrived here yesterday morning and put up at the Cosmopolitan hotel, paying for his room in advance. "How light," which, in the vernacular of the hotel clerks, means he had no baggage. In the afternoon he met with two men, one tall and muscular looking, the other small and wiry. In a saloon, the muscular man was the senior partner of the green goods line. He carried a japanned box about twelve inches long, nine wide and six deep. The city marshal of Crete was permitted to look into the box. He saw three packages of what appeared to be $1 and $5 bills. There were two $1 bills and one $5 bill visible. The marshal did not know it, but beneath the visible $1 bills were slips of green paper just the size of the bills. The New York merchants seemed to be convinced that they had a sucker in tow, and the country buyer from Crete, on his part, felt pretty sure he was coming out ahead of the game. The man from Crete is bit' and plucky, and he had a big-caliber pistol in his hip pocket. The New York merchants said there were $5,000 in "good money" in the japanned box and the marshal of Crete could have it for $1,000. The man from Crete grabbed for the box and yelled police. He got both, but when the box was forced open at headquarters, the $5,000 he expected he had found was just $55.79, short of that amount.
The marshal will have to pay $10 for carrying concealed weapons. The green goods men have lost $11 and a tin box. The marshal has $36.87 to carry him back to Crete.

[ Special Telegram to TUB BBK. ] An Immense
menso crowd gathered last evening nt the
speakers' ' stand In the grove and listened to
nn eloquent nnd rousing speech by General
Russell. Ills reminiscences of the rebellion
brought chcor after cheer from the enthused -
thusod audience. Colonel Majors and Gen
eral Dllworth entertained their old com
rades for n few moments by recalling very
interesting sketches of the campaign , and
especially under their commanders , Grant
nnd Sherman , to whom they paid the most
glowing tributes. Their hearty wishes for
the future welfare of the comrades brought
the veteran * to their feet nnd three cheers
wore given for the speakers of the evening.
The oftlunrs of the militia nnd the KIrst
Regiment band inarched to the rcsldcnco of
Commander Adams , nnd , with the ofllcors
drawn up In line at parade rest , the band
rendered nn exquisite serenade , after which
it wna entertained in tiio most hospita
ble milliner by the commander.

At 2:110 : the assembly sounded and the old
veterans , militia and band proceeded to form
In line for the sham battlo. Fully 18,000
people watched the bogus rebel forces take
their stand on the bluffs , build entrench
ments nnd throw out the skirmish line.
Meanwhile , the union forces appeared in the
valley a half-milo away. The opouiug pun
was lircd from the entrenchments. The
union battery immediately stationed
its guns and then commenced a
heavy artillery duel. The advancing
skirmish line of federals soon ran out the
robs' skirmishers and a floreo contest ca
nned , in the midst of which Colonel J. F.
Kendall with his cavalry company rushed
up , driving the skirmishers to the fort. The
charge of the old veterans and Colonel Ken
dall's attempt to flank the Johnnies was the
first time repulsed , but the second attempt
the stars and stripes was planted flrmly on
the fort built by the confederates.
The battle was under the charge of Gcn-
cral J. M. Thayer and General C. J. Dll
worth , so that it could not bo otherwise

substantial increase in the amount of their

Passenger association is doing moro business
than at any time since the opening of the
fair , and at least two of the roads
which were strenuously opposed to
placing the rates below 80 per cent
of double locals are now denouncing
themselves for not. coming down at mi earlier
iluto. The agents of the various western
Hues are almost unanimous In reporting that
the prospects for u continued increase of
business are most favorable. This showing
Is a decided surprise to some of the lines
which have been croaking about the financial
stringency , which they claimed had Deon
keeping people back from the fair. They are
now carrying moro passengers and making
moro money from their passenger trafllc
than at any tlmo since January 1.
The Union PnciHe , Ulo Grande Western

the Great Northern and Northern Pacilic.
They nave decided among themselves , however -

present and will not put them in.

through the courts with ono reversal and
ono bung jury , and a bold effort to alter the
records before the supreme court.
Crowds of people were In tbo city. The
doomed man was cool throughout , and there
wore no sensational incidents nt the eloso.

STATE ASSESSMENT- ROLL
Valuation of Nebraska's ' Property is Con
sidered Eidionlously Low.
ABOUT ONE-TENTH OF CASH VALUE
How it Is Apportioned Amonc the Several
Counties Lincoln 1'ollce Make if
Startling Discovery of n
Itacy Character.
LINCOLN , Aug. 4. [ Special to THE BBE.J
Chief Clerk Everett Babcock this forenoon
completed the work on the annual state as
sessment roll. The total state levy amounts
to ( J % mills , which upon the assessed valua
tion of all property in the state , $194,733-
124.73 , will raise a revenue of ? l,2Caoy3.50.
The assessed valuation of the state is con
sidered ridiculously low. At the auditor's
ofllco it is estimated that the average
assessment Is about one-tenth of the actual
cash value of the property. Multiplying the
total vnlimtloiutis rofl rued by the assessors
by ton , the total value of all kinds of prop
erty In Nebraska would thus amount to tbo
sum of $ l,047a31,247.ao. The revenue accru
ing to the state Is atlportionod among the
several counties ns follows , the first column
showing the assessed valuation und the last
the amount each county will bo required to

INTERESTING ENCAMPMENT INCIDENT
(Scenes of the Day of the Reunion Vividly
Recalled Time Who Participated
In DIB Affairs. Notes of
the Day.
LINCOLN, Surmon, Neb., Aug. 4.
[Special Telegram to THE BEE.] An Immense
menso crowd gathered last evening at the
speakers' stand In the grove and listened to
an eloquent and rousing speech by General
Russell. His reminiscences of the rebellion
brought cheer after cheer from the enthused
thus crowd. Colonel Majors and Gen
eral Dilworth entertained their old comrades for
a few moments by recalling very
interesting sketches of the campaign, and
especially under their commanders, Grant
and Sherman, to whom they paid the most
glowing tributes. Their hearty wishes for
the future welfare of the comrades brought
the veterans to their feet and three cheers
were given for the speakers of the evening.
The officers of the militia and the First
Regiment band marched to the residence of
Commander Adams, and, with the officers
drawn up In line at parade rest, the band
rendered an exquisite serenade, after which
it was entertained in the most hospitable
manner by the commander.
At 10:30: today General Hanback read telegrams
of regret from many who could not be
present. These were followed by addresses
from the general.
Commander Adams Trained.
He particularly impressed on the audience
how much they owed to Commander Adams
for his sustained management and good order
of the reunion. The most hearty applause
was given these closing remarks.
At noon Governor Crouse arrived and was
escorted to camp. As he was being welcomed
at headquarters, battery A gave a
thundering salute of thirteen guns to the
honored guest. He inspected the camp.
The tents in their perfect neatness were
thrown wide open and no flaw could be
discovered. Not even a stray paper blown by
the wind was allowed to rest near them.
( Success reul Sham Battle.
At 2:30: the assembly sounded and the old
veterans, militia and band proceeded to form
In line for the sham battle. Fully 18,000
people watched the bogus rebel forces take
their stand on the bluffs, build entrenchments
and throw out the skirmish line.
Meanwhile, the union forces appeared in the
valley a half-mile away. The opposing gun
was fired from the entrenchments. The
union battery immediately stationed
its guns and then commenced a
heavy artillery duel. The advancing
skirmish line of federals soon ran out the
rebels' skirmishers and a fierce contest began,
in the midst of which Colonel J. F.
Kendall with his cavalry company rushed
up, driving the skirmishers to the fort. The
charge of the old veterans and Colonel Kendall's
attempt to flank the Johnnies was the
first time repulsed, but the second attempt
the stars and stripes was planted firmly on
the fort built by the Confederates.
The battle was under the charge of Gen-
eral J. M. Thayer and General C. J. Dll
worth, so that it could not be otherwise
than a success. The dress parade by the
national guards at 6 o'clock was witnessed
by a large crowd. On the evening train
came Hon. John J. Ingalls. He was royally
received by the officers of the camp and
addressed the large crowd awaiting him this
evening at 8 o'clock.

Scalp Iron, Neb., Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to
THE BEE.] Last night while Richards' cargo was being loaded on the cars an
altercation arose between two of the colored
attaches, which ended in Dick Ruddis being
seriously cut and stabbed in the head, neck
and shoulders by one of them, known as the
foreman's bouncer, the foreman being a
small man who calls said bouncer to his assistance when unable to manage his men, all
of whom are much afraid of the bouncer.
A warrant was Issued for the arrest of the
holder of the knife, but the sheriff was
told he had left town at once, going east. It
is thought he was in hiding near at hand.
Ruddis' wounds are severe, but not dangerous
the worst being a thrust into the back of the neck that struck the vertebra.

WISNER,
Neb., Aug. 4. [Special to THE BEE.] Wisner is making a very encouraging
growth despite the stringent financial condition of the season. Several residences are

which will be fitted up as an opera house,
and within a few days John Meier, the Wisner clothier, will begin the erection of a
brick business building 80x84 feet, which will
be pushed to the earliest possible completion.
The village and township boards have
adopted plans and specifications for a
hand-some two-story public building to be
erected this fall. At a recent citizens' meeting it

be improved as a racing and base ball park
and general pleasure resort. About $1000
worth of stock has already been subscribed
for the proposed scheme.

Electrical stereopticon shows at Courtland beach tonight.
HUSKER TICKET.
Let States Scroll the Travel to Chicago on All Western Roads.
CHICAGO, Aug. 4. All the western roads are enjoying the sensation of witnessing a substantial increase in the amount of their passenger traffic. Every road in the Western Passenger association is doing more business than at any time since the opening of the fair, and at least two of the roads which were strenuously opposed to placing the rates below 80 percent of double locals are now denouncing themselves for not coming down at an earlier date. The agents of the various western lines are almost unanimous in reporting that the prospects for a continued increase of business are most favorable. This showing is a decided surprise to some of the lines which have been croaking about the financial stringency, which they claimed had been keeping people back from the fair. They are now carrying more passengers and making more money from their passenger traffic than at any time since January 1.
The Union Pacific, Rio Grande Western and Denver Rio Grande-Colorado Midland were accorded permission some time since to make second-class rates from Pacific coast points to meet the reductions made by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific. They have decided among themselves, however, that such rates are not called for at present and will not put them in.

Last evening Miss Nellie McShane and Miss Lulu Schenk gave a private dancing party on the upper floor of the pavilion. Mrs. John A. Schenk and Mrs. E.C. McShane chaperoned the young people.
A new contract has been made in regard to the balloon; the new one being with Zolnick and Gould. A new balloon has been secured; also in connection with this there will be a parachute jump and trapeze performance.
Manager Griffiths may be found daily between 11:30 and 12 o'clock noon in room 30, First National bank building by those church societies or charitable organizations who desire dates for picnics at the beach. The entire gate receipts are given to such applicants.
The cool nights of the past week have had a tendency to increase the number of bathers at the beach during the afternoon and early evening hours. The number of picnic parties which take their lunch in the grove during the early evening is also increasing as the weather becomes more pleasant.
There was no "balloon ascension" last evening. Mr. Gribble, the owner of the balloon, made complaint about there being no rowboat sent across the lake after his wife on Thursday night after the ascension. This precipitated a small row between Gribble and the beach management. Manager Griffiths promptly annulled the balloon ascension contract.
Fishing, Courtland beach.
Hanged for Murder.
DUBUQUE, Mo., Aug. 4. Joseph A. Howell was hanged here at 10 o'clock today for the murder of Mrs. Nettie Hall and four children near Brookfield, Mo., January last. This was the first hanging over known in this county and, of course, the feeling in the matter was intense. The crime for which Howell was executed was one of the most atrocious in the annals of history. In January, 1887, about 11:50 o'clock at night, the house of Mrs. Hall, near Brookfield, was discovered to be on fire. Through the burning windows could be seen the bodies of Mrs. Hall and one of her children lying on a bed, having been killed, apparently with an axe. By tracks in the snow the murderer was tracked to Brookfield and arrested in a hotel. The case went through the courts with one reversal and one hung jury, and a bold effort to alter the records before the supreme court.
Crowds of people were in the city. The doomed man was cool throughout, and there were no sensational incidents at the close. Sheriff Winters had taken the precaution to have the jail enclosure patrolled by ten men with rifles and fixed bayonets.
Bathing, Courtland beach.
Moving Lower Brule Agency.
S.D., Aug. 4. [Special Telegraph to The Bureau.] It has finally been decided to remove the Lower Brule agency to the regular reservation set apart for those Indians. The government is now taking the preliminary steps toward moving the agency. The new location is on the west side of the Missouri, nearly opposite Crow Creek agency. Ten new buildings are to be constructed at the agency as soon as the bids now being advertised for are disposed of and a contract made. At present, Lower Brule agency is located on but a small strip of ground, which is surrounded on all sides by land coded to the government by the Sioux a few years ago, and it is intended by the Indian bureau to remove the agency to a more secluded place as soon as possible. At the time the Sioux ceded the government a portion of the reservation, land was set apart for the Lower Brule Indians, but until now no steps have been taken for their removal to the land.
Fishing, Courtland beach.
Increased Stringency at Indianapolis.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Aug. 4. The increased stringency in the money market was illustrated here by public contractors refusing to accept drafts on New York banks on account of the banks charging $10 per $1,000 for exchange. The city has no funds for daily expense except the $100,000 advanced by the New York Life some time ago on account of Stanton & Collins of New York failing to take the $500,000 city bonds which they had bought.

OUR SALE PRICE $5000 #
A Still Deeper Gult.
Today our price on ladies' turn button shoes is $3.00 more than no soil them for will be $1.50. New styles of these shoes, 300 pairs, are available today at $1.60. See this $1.00 shoe; compare it; examine it closely; and decide for yourself what the list is when I can buy such shoes for $1.50. I am taking two pairs, for the chance to come back soon again. HAND TINTED SHOES $1.60. Ladies' Bluchers. We need only to say that A. D. Morse's price of $1.80 for Saturday's sale is one dollar and a half. Buy a fine tan blucher oxford that cost A. D. Morse $3.00 at the factory. We have made the price and have these shoes the people will do the rest. Our low prices make shoe trade difficult, but at the rate we are selling them they will only last another week. Once we have marked all the ladies' $7.00, $3.00, and $1.00 Hand Stitched French Kid Shoes, that's less than half A. D. Morse's price. A. D. Morse's shoes have proven a drawing card this week at Saturday we made a tremendous effort of our STOS. The people will fill our store early Saturday morning and stay as late Saturday night as they can. Profit is unthought of, the leading thing with us is to out-sell our shoes and that in a hurry. Half Price will do it, where lines have not gone as good as others we have put them in two again a doubtful division as it were. For instance, a lot of men's fine quality shoes, A. D. Morse's $5.00 congress go from this on. At $1.50 a pair, men's jersey ties at $1.00. Cost A. D. Morse & Co., sold by him at $3. Our price, remember, goes Saturday of 9:00 am. A man's fine calf shoe for $1 is cheaper than having them mended, $1.50 for misses' spring heels. Price off one pair. The end is not far off, but as yet there is no break in the line at sizes. The A. D. Morse's Misses' Spring Shoes are $1.26. A second cut is today given to the Misses' Heeled Oxfords. From now on they sell for $1.00. The first cost to A. D. Morse was $1.50. Ladies' house slippers and street oxfords, sizes 2.2, 3.3, and 4, go at $1.00. In a finer line your choice of any style for $1, in other styles oxford or slipper. Those are elegant and won't last a day at $2.50 to $1.00 for the fine ones that sold for $2.23. STATE ASSESSMENT ROLL Valuation of Nebraska's Property is Considered Edionlously Low. ABOUT ONE-TENTH OF CASH VALUE How it is Apportioned Among the Several Counties Lincoln Police Make a Startling Discovery of a Racy Character. LINCOLN, Aug. 4. [Special to THE BEE.] Chief Clerk Everett Babcock this forenoon completed the work on the annual state assessment roll. The total state levy amounts to 1% mills, which upon the assessed valuation of all property in the state, $194,733-124.73, will raise a revenue of $1,204,623.50. The assessed valuation of the state is considered ridiculously low. At the auditor's office it is estimated that the average assessment is about one-tenth of the actual cash value of the property. Multiplying the total valuation by ten, the total value of all kinds of property in Nebraska would thus amount to the sum of $1,047,631,247.00. The revenue accruing to the state is apportioned among the several counties as follows, the first column showing the assessed valuation and the last the amount each county will be required to turn into the state treasury: County. Valuation. Assessment.

Will Fight the Injunction.
The members of the State Board of Transportation have determined to make a vigorous fight against the efforts of the several railroad companies doing business in Nebraska to permanently restrain the board from enforcing the provisions of the new maximum rate law, and to this end Attorney General Hastings, Assistant Attorney General Summers, and Secretary Dilworth are busily engaged in preparing an answer to the petition filed in Judge Dundy's court. The board has also passed the following resolution:
Resolved. That Attorney General Hastings is hereby directed to take such steps and to do and perform all things necessary to make a vigorous, emphatic, and successful defense to the action against the board and the individual members thereof now pending in the United States circuit court, and he is hereby empowered and authorized to that end to enter the appearance of the board and each of the individual members thereof.
In the Banking Department.
Chief Justice Maxwell today issued an order directing Receiver Thomas of the American Savings bank of Omaha to proceed, without unnecessary delay, to convert the goods, chattels, rights, credits, property, and effects of the bank into money and to wind up the affairs of the bank. The receiver has filed a bond for $1,200,000.
The chief justice also filed an order directing Receiver E.H. Marshall to wind up the affairs of the State bank of Franklin. Mr. Marshall's bond for $50,000 has been approved by the clerk of the supreme court.
Another order was filed by the chief justice requiring all creditors of the Nebraska Savings bank of Lincoln to appear on August 10 and show cause why the proposition of the stockholders to give a bond for $150,000 to pay off all claims of the bank within two years should not be accepted. If the proposition is accepted, the stockholders agree to pay all claims in full, together with interest at the rate of 5% per annum, 35% of the claims to be paid within eighteen months from August 1, 1883, and the remaining 75% within two years from August 1, 1883.
Traveling Auditor Ford reached the auditor's office this morning. It was from Boone county and was entirely favorable. The only notable feature was the statement that the banks of Boone county not only refuse to give bonds for the security of county funds deposited with them, but decline to pay interest for the use of the same.
Superintendent Armstrong of the Beatrice Institute for the Feeble Minded was at the state house this forenoon.
Governor Crounse today issued notarial commissions to John Mills, Geneva; Byron F. Young of Hebron, Charles M. Murdock of Wymora, George S. Cushmun of Hallowell, John K. Gilmore of Hay Springs.
The members of the State Board of Transportation were this morning served with copies of the Injunction restraining them from compelling the Rock Island railroad from enforcing the rates fixed by the maximum rate law which did not go into effect on August 1.
Superintendent Goudy has returned from Loup City, where he attended the Loup county teachers' Institute.
The Board of Purchase and Supplies held a brief session this morning, audited a few vouchers, and passed a resolution to the effect that hereafter requests from the various state institutions for permission to purchase supplies be forwarded on the 1st and 15th of each month.
Will Kaston of Omaha, deputy collector of internal revenue, was at the state house this afternoon.
A Startling Find.
The police raided a suspected block at the corner of Twenty-first and Dodge Streets last night and made one or two startling discoveries that will, in time, doubtless furnish the material for one or more racy divorce cases. They found in one room a man and a woman, both well-known and highly connected in the city. The gentleman's wife happened, however, to be visiting for the summer in the east and the lady's husband was also out of the city. The man in the case at first blustered and threatened and attempted to pull a gun, but he finally wilted and begged for the secrecy of the police.
After some little negotiation, he paid a regular fine for himself and his female companion, and both were allowed to depart. The woman who managed the house was arrested, together with two young women. They gave their names at the police station as Mrs. S.D. Kempton, Stella Vernon, and Junius Booth. The latter girl is already known to the police, but Miss Vernon, as she calls herself, is a stranger. She is both handsome and elegantly dressed, and was greatly embarrassed at the police court this afternoon when called for trial. Ex-Attorney General Leslie has been retained to defend the trio and the case was continued until next Monday afternoon.
Crazed by the Accident.
William Hall, the motorman who ran over and killed little Freddie Harper in this city last evening, has gone insane over the sad accident. All last night he was so violent that it required several men to prevent him from doing himself bodily injury. This morning he quieted down, but his friends state that he has become mentally unbalanced. No blame is attached to him by the parents or friends of the little boy who met death under his care.
The child died last night from the effects of his injuries. He was a handsome little fellow and a general favorite in the neighborhood. His parents are visiting the family of Mrs. Harper's brother, P.M. Collard, and have but few acquaintances in the city. Mrs. Harper is the mother of another child but a few days old and was confined to her room when the accident occurred.
Mrs. Crook, who saw it from the window, and her agonizing shriek was the first intimation that her husband had of the fact that the child had been run down and killed.
Dr. Isaac Crook, LL.D. and D.D., late of the University of the Pacific, has been selected as the successor of Rev. C.F. Drexelton, chancellor of the Wesleyan University near this city. The selection of Dr. Crook was something of a surprise many people, as it had been personally understood that the trustees would select Dr. A.J. Talbot of New Albany, Ind. A committee of the trustees appointed for the purpose had recommended Dr. Talbot, but when the whole board met last evening, the committee's choice was disregarded and Dr. Crook elected. Three ballots were taken, the unsuccessful candidates being Dr. C.L. Lasby, pastor of St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal church of this city, and Dr. Chancellor of Hot Springs, S.D. Dr. Crook is well known in university circles on the Pacific slope and comes to the Wesleyan university with the prestige acquired in thirty years of earnest, faithful work.
J.H. Luke has commenced a suit in district court in which he asks for $95,000 damages from C.V. Axtell, whom he accuses of making a false arrest. His petition recites that last February he was arrested on a warrant sworn out by Axtell in the county court on the charge of misappropriating a sum of money, amounting to about $100. He was placed behind a grated door in the county jail for forty-four hours and then released without further prosecution. He now claims that his arrest resulted in about $5,000 worth of injury to his reputation and peace of mind. He claims that he had borrowed $100 from a brother of the defendant, and that because he was unable to meet the note when it became due, Axtell had him arrested merely to frighten him into a speedy settlement.
The Colored Republican club has elected Minor Woods president, Benjamin Lowell vice president, Willis Mosby secretary.
Burglars attempted to enter the residence of J.C. Baldwin at the corner of Thirteenth and G streets at 12:30 o'clock this morning. They were frightened away by Mrs. Baldwin.
The local B&M officials have yet received no notice that any of the employees in this city are to be discharged.
Another suit has been commenced against M.A. Newmark, until recently proprietor of the Globe Clothing house in this city. The suit is brought by March Bros., Pierce & Co. of Boston and the amount involved is $303.71.
An extremely racy breach of promise suit was filed in district court today, the plaintiff being Sarah Gerbar and the defendant John H. Martin, a well-known traveling man. The plaintiff alleges seduction and produces the depositions of George and Olga Brown of Hastings, both of whom swear to having witnessed the details of the affair.

During the course of Convict.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 4. Four convicts confined in the penitentiary hospital regained their liberties this morning and are still at large. The prisoners took with them a stretcher used for transporting the sick, and converting this into a ladder, mounted the wall, and lowering themselves to the ground by means of ropes tied to the railing around one of the guard houses. This was a most daring and nervous piece of business, as the guard was at the time in the little room eating his lunch, and which fact accounts for their not being seen.
The division of the Tel Jed Sokol (Omaha Bohemian gymnasts) to take part in the convention at the World's fair grounds August 11 consists of the following tumblers: Rudolph Havolka, Jacob Moravec, Josef Choza, Joseph Novak, F.U. Fiala, Frank Fiala, with Anton Kment as one of the judges from Nebraska.

CIIICAOO , Aug. 4. It wa an uneasy , fever-
J h day In the wheat pit. Trailing was
'saint. Prices ran up and down several
times within a range of Jfc , and left oft
about MC lower than on the day before. Corn
averaged strong nnil closed MO higher. Pro
visions wore In the main flrm , but dull. The
Walker failure cnmo too Into to bo n factor. ,
but It hat boon more or lost dltcounted lor
tome flmo. Tlio opening for September was
from Jf@ > i'c lower than yesterday's close ,
then advanced } jc , declined % c , rallied 1J e ,
declined 1 > < c , and closed steady. The weaker
opening was duo to the bank falluro at St.
Paul In the morning papers , some cholera
scnro and rumors of trouble among mercan
tile houses here. Cables , too , were lower ,
which helped to weaken the market. But
the largo clearances and good buying orders
had the otTcct of changing the decline and
prices were advanced , then eased off again
on more bank failures In the northwest.
Operators seemed Inclined to buy , but the
disquieting rumors hnd a bad off.ect. TradIng -
Ing was only of a local character.
There was no rain whore most needed , and
oo prospect of any , making the shorts in
corn alarmed at the outlook for the crop.
Initial transactions were at a trifle advance ,
but It was not long under the urgent demand
and limited offerings buforo the prices sold
up < o for September and lo for May , the
Utter delivery being the strongest on the
list and the premium is still widening. The
prlco hold lirm for a while , eased % c , ral
lied % c , changed some , and at the close Sep
tember had trained from % c to i c , and May
from % o to } { a. The cash situation is rather
a drawback , as the tight money is alTccting
the shipping interest , and August did not
advance in proportion to the other futures.
Oats averaged higher , advanced from J c
to % c , and closed at from J o to J o below
the top. There was a fair trade. The
strength came mostly from corn.
Provision trading was con lined almost en
tirely to those who arc interested in the
manufacture of products. The syndicate , as
Armour & Co. , Swift & Co. , and Morris &
Co. are called , did what was necessary to
keep the market sober and within narrow
fluctuations. Compared with last night the
close showed pork down 15c and lard 5c ,
while riba are 5c up.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,

Ing wool of late. Where their crodl !
is first-class thev huvo the advantugt
and they have boon able to secun
supplies on favorable terms. The lowos
prices ovc-r recorded have boon accepted bj
the trade , but the fiict that large and shrewt
buyers have been qulotly picking up coed line :
of wool In anticipation of a future use fo

their lowest level. There Is u very moderati
movement In all kinds of wished lleuco , Ii

Itadlcnl Chanic ClmrKctarlicd the Tone of
Wpoculatlon Yciitordny.
NBW 'YoitK , Aug. 4. There was n radical
change In the tone of speculation on the ex
change today. l-Jarly prices yelldod to
} ( per cent , chiefly on account of the bank
troubles In St. Paul and the scarcity of cur
rency , which oxcltcd fears among the timid
operators as to the f uturo of the money mar
ket. The dccltno added materially to the
short interest and for this reason probably
the bulls offered little opposition to the raid.
After prices had yielded largo buying orders
were * placed und in loss time than it takes to
toll it. the decline was recovered and the
market generally was on a higher level thau
last night's closing. '
During the uftci-noou another .reaction en-
cued , but toward the close speculation
assumed a positively buoyant tone and there
was a small-sized bear panic. The sorts ,
they wanted to cover , found that
locks wore not to bo had readily and , in
their hnsto to retrieve themselves , they bid
) rice up on oanh other. The belief that
rrlvali ot gold from Europe- next week will
'ollevo ' the money piessuro and thatPresi-
out Cleveland's message will have a re
assuring effect in financial nnd commercial
Irclcs had much lo uo with the sharp
upward turn. The advance generally
ivas from J to 7 per cont. General
Electric rose 5 per cent to Gl j . Chicago

hattan , 4J per cent to 112 } ; Jersey Cen
tral , 4 per cent to 92 ; Lackawanna , 4 uer
cent to lill ; Burlington , 4 per cent to 80 , nnd
estern Union , 8 % per cent to 783tf. Just
prior to the close General Electrio and
Northwestern reacted lj.f to 1 percent ,
but the general market lott off strong at or
near the top prices of the day and week. A
marked exception was Union Pacific which
shows > t not loss for the day of about a point
on the talk of a receivership. The directors ,
it is said , will meet on Tuesday next , when
the affairs of tbo company will bo thoroughly
discussed.
The Post says : Today's prices advanced
rapidly nnd they advanced because they dis
counted next week's now supplies of money.
Of this there can bo no question. At least
$1,000,000 gold will be turned into the city
banks by Wednesday next week and fully
$10.000,000 national bank circulation will bo
added to it from the government presses.
Presumably prices went up today through
the use of call money , the buyers reckoning
that next week will rellovo the time loan
market.
If this is the result of the so-called "ex
pansion of currency , " it is such only because
of undue contraction previously brought
about through foolish hoarders and deliber
ate mischidfuiakers. The owners of the
currency in safe deposit vaults are likely to
learn too late of the extent to which they
not only embarrassed current business but
throw away opportunities.
The probability is that those stores of
hoarded currency will bo released far moro
suddenly than they were locked up and that
before the lapse of many weeks the money
market will bo fairly easy. But this will , of
course , depend on the action of the extra
session , and it may not moan a quick return
of business prosperity.

OMAHA. LIVE STOCK. MAKK12T3.
Itccclpto of All Sort * Light , with Prices
Much Higher on Everything.
FIIIUAY , Aug. 4.
It has been several months since the re
ceipts of live stock were as light as they
were today. Only 42 cars in all were re
ceived. So far this week , compared with
last , however , there has been an increase of
nearly 4,000 cattle and 1,400 sheep , while the
hog supply has fallen nearly 10,000 short of
last week's litturesV' '
With meager pfteSrlngs of cattle and a
better"domana from'Hho ' dressed beef men ,
desirable beef,1 * steers sold lOo to
15c hotter than Thursday. Local
men had it r , all their own way ,
as speculators ard taking no chances this
weather. They bought fair to very good
1,100 to 1,283-lb. , buovcs at from $3.50 to $4.45.
Common and inferior stock was hardly
wanted at any price. Very fair 1,030 to 1,250-
Ib. western grassors'sold down around $2.85
ana $2.90. or nearly 'n dollar lower than the
same cattle sold for , a year ago. Today's
activity and strength grew out of the very
'Ight receipts and , not any improvement in
the demand or the general situation.
The cow market may have been a Httlo
firmer on the mure desirable grades , but
common stuff solaivory badly. Inferior to
choice cows and luiifcrS'sold.at from $1.25 to
$2.50 , includlnga big string of good western
cows at $2.20. A lot of western calves
broXight $3.15 , a fair ' price ; very few native
calves were offered'for sale. Poor to prime
bulls sold at from $1 to $3 , or about steady
prices. There was a better feeling in feeders
owing to the light fresh supply and very fair
country demand. Sales to the country
were mostly at firmer figures , but
out of ih-st hands about steady.
Good to choice feeders are quotable at $2.70
@ 3.00 ; fair to good at $2.50@2.70 , and cona
tion stuff at $2.00@2.50. Uepresentativo

HOGS But 0 fresh cars ot hogs were
received today , the lightest run since Christ
mas. Country shippers who sold hogs in
February at $8 mm better did not take
kindly to the $4 idea and concluded to wait

outbid everybody else , including both ship ,
pcrs and speculators , and paid prices any.

Tliu TOIL Trade.
Alarmed by the rapid extension of the
use of Indian teas in Europe and the con
sequent decline of the demand for the
Chinese leaf , the Pokin authorities have
just iHsucd a proclamation a aiiiHt the
manufacture- what is sifrniflcantly
styled in the document as "lie" tea. The
proclamation points out that this bean-
dalous practice hast contributed moro
than anythinf else to bring about the
wane of the Chinese tea trade and it de
clares that the authorities are deter
mined to put a stop to it. People are
warned not to make any tea excepting
ot the genuine ton leaves and if any
person is discovered infringing thin
order ho will bo punished by transporta
tion for life a penalty which will bo
extended also to the Boiler and to the
buyer , its well us to all others who huvo
taken any part In the placing of adul
terated tea upon the market.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL
It WAS an Uncertain, Feverish Day in the
Wheat Pit,
CORN AVERAGED STRONG AND HIGHER
There WAS No Selling Where Most Needed
and No Prospect of Any,
the Start in Corn to
Have Alarmed.
CHICAGO, Aug. 4. It WAS an uneasy, feverish day in the wheat pit. Trading was steady. Prices ran up and down several times within a range of 1c, and left off about 1c lower than on the day before. Corn averaged strong and closed 5c higher. Provisions were in the main firm, but dull. The Walker failure came too into to be a factor, but It has been more or less discounted for some time. The opening for September WAS from 1c@1c lower than yesterday's close, then advanced 1c, declined 1c, rallied 1.5c, declined 1c, and closed steady. The weaker opening WAS due to the bank failure at St. Paul in the morning papers, some cholera scare and rumors of trouble among mercantile houses here. Cables, too, were lower, which helped to weaken the market. But the large clearances and good buying orders had the effect of changing the decline and prices were advanced, then eased off again on more bank failures in the northwest. Operators seemed inclined to buy, but the disquieting rumors had a bad effect. Trading was only of a local character.
There was no rain where most needed, and no prospect of any, making the shorts in corn alarmed at the outlook for the crop. Initial transactions were at a trivial advance, but it was not long under the urgent demand and limited offerings before the prices sold up for September and to for May, the latter delivery being the strongest on the list and the premium is still widening. The price held firm for a while, eased 1c, rallied 1c, changed some, and at the close September had gained 1c to 1c, and May from 1c to 1.5c. The cash situation is rather a drawback, as the tight money is affecting the shipping interest, and August did not advance in proportion to the other futures. Oats averaged higher, advanced from 1c to 1.5c, and closed at from 1c to 1c below the top. There was a fair trade. The strength came mostly from corn.
Provision trading was confined almost entirely to those who are interested in the manufacture of products. The syndicate, as Armour & Co., Swift & Co., and Morris & Co. are called, did what was necessary to keep the market sober and within narrow fluctuations. Compared with last night the close showed pork down 15c and lard 5c, while ribs are 5c up.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 180 cars; corn, 165 cars; oats, 214 cars; hogs, 6,000 head.
Freights dull at 1c for wheat and 1c for corn to Buffalo and 3c for wheat and 3c for corn to Kingston.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

THERE are a great many poor circulations coming to market and the proportion of seconds is large. Dollars find it very low work trying to dispose of their seconds, which are a drag on the market even at very low prices. The bulk of the sales of good stuff are being made at 1½c.
POULTRY-The receipts of surfacing chickens are not quite so large as they were a few days ago, but there is a great plenty to supply the demand. Old fowls are not plenty and choice old hens bring easily. Other kinds of poultry, as geese, ducks, etc., are out of season and are not wanted. Choice old hens, 7½c; old roosters, 40½c; spring chickens, 4½c.
POTATOES-There are no potatoes to speak of being shipped either in or out of the city at the present time. The local growers are supplying the demand and there are few potatoes being shipped by commission houses. Choice stock on orders, 90c@95c.
MEAT Watermelons are not very plenty coming in more freely as the market is lower than it was a short time ago. There is quite a difference in the quality of cantaloupes and accordingly a wide range in prices. Watermelons, per 100 lbs., 9½c; cantaloupes, per lb.
CABBAGE-The sluggishness in shipping change to the country appears to be about over. Occasional orders are received and filled at 12½c.
CELERY-Stray shipments are arriving and the quality of the stock is pronounced good for this beginning of the year. Celery, per dozen bunches, 9½c@10½c.
ONIONS-Home-grown stock is plenty at 2½c on orders from the country.
TOMATOES-The market is still full of tomatoes and prices are low. Large receipts are anticipated for the next few days, Southern, per 4½-quart basket, 7½c@8½c.
STRAWBERRIES-Only a few blackberries are being brought in by local growers and the berry season is almost over. There are also blueberries arriving, but not a great many. Blackberries, per 3-lb. crate, $3; blueberries, per 6-quart case, $1.
APPLES-No apples to amount to anything are being shipped in, but the supply of tins is quite large. Common varieties, 5½c; extras, 6½c.
VEGETABLES-Vegetables are not plentiful and the market is steady. Radishes, 1½c@2½c; cabbage, 3½c; carrots, 4½c; cucumbers, 6½c; beets, 2½c; turnips, 2½c; onions, 5c.
GRAINS-As already noted, the market is well supplied with California fruit and prices are low as compared with other commodities. Oranges, per 10-lb. box, 11¼c@12½c.
LEMONS-The steady warm weather produces a very fair demand for lemons and sales are doing a good steady business. Lemons, extra fancy, in box, $5.00@5.50; Messinons, per box, choice to common, $4.50@5.00.
BANANAS-Prices remain about steady. Potatoes, per 20-lb. box, 3½c@4½c.
HIDES No. 1 green hides, 9c; No. 2 green hides, 2½c; No. 1 green salted hides, 6c; No. 2 mixed hides, 6c; No. 1 green salted hides, 6c; No. 2 green salted hides, 4½c; No. 1 veal calves, 6c@7½c; No. 2 veal calves, 5c@6½c; No. 1 dry flint hides, 4½c; No. 2 dry flint hides, 4c; No. 1 dry built hides, 4½c; No. 2 dry built hides, 3½c; cured hides, 9½c per lb., less than fully cured.

WOOL Market Leveller. BOSTON, Aug. 4. The wool market has been on the surface, very quiet, and as a rule, transactions.
Actions were confined to small lots, but at the same time there have been a few good lines of territory wool moved this week, as was the case last week, and the mills are not by any means backward about purchasing supplies at the current low prices. It is noticeable that several mills that are shut down in part because of their cold stocks have been buying wool of late. Where their quality is first-class, they have the advantage, and they have been able to secure supplies on favorable terms. The lowest prices ever recorded have been accepted by the trade, but the fact that large and shrewd buyers have been quietly picking up good lines of wool in anticipation of a future use for themselves indicates that prices have touched their lowest level. There is a very moderate movement in all kinds of merchandise, including Michigan Reece, where a sale is reported of 5,000 lbs at 20c, and this is an outside price. Very good wool can be bought for 20c per lb.
Philadelphia, Aug. 4. The wool market continued dull, owing to idle machinery, prices nominal.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
Radical Change in the Tone of Speculation Yesterday.
NEW YORK, Aug. 4. There was a radical change in the tone of speculation on the exchange today. Early prices yielded to 2½ percent, chiefly on account of the bank troubles in St. Paul and the scarcity of currency, which excited fears among the timid operators as to the future of the money market. The decline added materially to the short interest and for this reason probably the bulls offered little opposition to the raid. After prices had yielded, large buying orders were placed and in less time than it takes to tell it, the decline was recovered and the market generally was on a higher level than last night's closing.
During the afternoon another reaction ensued, but toward the close speculation assumed a positively buoyant tone and there was a small-sized bear panic. The sorts they wanted to cover, found that stocks were not to be had readily and, in their haste to retrieve themselves, they bid prices up on each other. The belief that arrivals of gold from Europe next week will relieve the money pressure and that President Cleveland's message will have a reassuring effect in financial and commercial circles had much to do with the sharp upward turn. The advance generally was from 1 to 7 percent. General Electric rose 5 percent to 51½c; Chicago Gas, 6 percent to 52c; Northwestern, 4½ percent, to 43½c; Rock Island, 4½ percent, to 30½c; Sugar, 5½ percent to 28½c; St. Paul, 5½ percent to 67½c; Lake Shore, 6 percent to 10c; Pullman, 5 percent to 14½c; Cotton Oil, 4½ percent to 31c; Louisville & Nashville, 4½ percent to 57½c; Manhattan, 4½ percent to 112½c; Jersey Central, 4 percent to 92c; Lackawanna, 4 percent to 61c; Burlington, 4 percent to 80c; Western Union, 8½ percent to 78½c. Just prior to the close General Electric and Northwestern reacted slightly to 1½ percent, but the general market lost off strong at or near the top prices of the day and week. A marked exception was Union Pacific which shows no loss for the day of about a point on the talk of a receivership. The directors, it is said, will meet on Tuesday next, when the affairs of the company will be thoroughly discussed.
The Post says: Today's prices advanced rapidly and they advanced because they discounted next week's new supplies of money. Of this there can be no question. At least $1,000,000 gold will be turned into the city banks by Wednesday next week and fully $10,000,000 national bank circulation will be added to it from the government presses. Presumably prices went up today through the use of call money, the buyers reckoning that next week will relieve the time loan market.
If this is the result of the so-called "expansion of currency," it is such only because of undue contraction previously brought about through foolish hoarders and deliberate mischievous makers. The owners of the currency in safe deposit vaults are likely to learn too late of the extent to which they not only embarrassed current business but threw away opportunities.
The probability is that those stores of hoarded currency will be released far more suddenly than they were locked up and that before the lapse of many weeks the money market will be fairly easy. But this will, of course, depend on the action of the extra session, and it may not mean a quick return of business prosperity.
The following are the closing quotations on the leading stocks on the New York exchange today:

Receipts of All Sorts Light, with Prices Much Higher on Everything.
FRIDAY, Aug. 4.
It has been several months since the receipts of live stock were as light as they were today. Only 42 cars in all were received. So far this week, compared with last, however, there has been an increase of nearly 4,000 cattle and 1,400 sheep, while the hog supply has fallen nearly 10,000 short of last week's figures.
With meager supplies of cattle and a better demand from the dressed beef men, desirable beef steers sold 10c to 15c higher than Thursday. Local men had it all their own way, as speculators were taking no chances this weather. They bought fair to very good 1,100 to 1,283-lb. beef at from $3.50 to $4.45. Common and inferior stock was hardly wanted at any price. Very fair 1,030 to 1,250-lb. western grassers sold down around $2.85 and $2.90, or nearly a dollar lower than the same cattle sold for, a year ago. Today's activity and strength grew out of the very light receipts and, not any improvement in the demand or the general situation.
The cow market may have been a little firmer on the more desirable grades, but common stuff sold very badly. Inferior to choice cows and hogs sold at from $1.25 to $2.50, including a big string of good western cows at $2.20. A lot of western calves brought $3.15, a fair price; very few native calves were offered for sale. Poor to prime bulls sold at from $1 to $3, or about steady prices. There was a better feeling in feeders owing to the light fresh supply and very fair country demand. Sales to the country were mostly at firmer figures, but out of the first hands about steady.
Good to choice feeders are quotable at $2.70@3.00; fair to good at $2.50@2.70, and condition stuff at $2.00@2.50. Representative sales:

Thurston: Slightly injured from lack of rain. Banner: The long spell of dry weather has given good opportunity to work ground and fluids are free from weeds. Koyah Paha: Late, but the hot weather of the past month has helped it. Thomas: Fine rains of 8th and 9th gave high hopes of a full crop. Platte: Not up to the standard. Washington: Growing rapidly and the prospects are favorable for a good crop; the culture is good, the fields clean. Webster: Very thrifty; a good stand and fair the whole. Burt: In fine condition; large and clean. Hayes: Acreage largely increased in the first place, and nearly as much more added by planting wheat ground; crop is looking fine. Johnson: While the season apparently has been good for crop, bad seed caused many to plant the third time, which makes condition very uneven; where first planting stands, condition is extra fine. Lancaster: Very uneven; some fine and a great deal looking bad. Nuckolls: Rather backward, but looks well. Cass: Not even; weather too dry and cool for crop. Hitchcock: Crop greatly improved by showers on the evenings of 27th, 28th and 29th. Franklin: Have had heavy rains the past week, which has given crop a splendid showing. Antelope: Prospects good; a little pinched on new lands; never better on old. Lincoln: The only crop that is good, many fields of small grain have been planted to it. South Dakota Burlington: In good condition. Fall River: Looks well yet, and with some rain and the present hot weather will make a crop. Turner: Doing finely every way; three feet high; good stand and color, Heade: Splendid, good stand and large. McPherson: Continued hot winds have injured crop to some extent; recent rains, however, are improving the outlook. Campbell: A larger percentage of poor seed than usual; otherwise condition might have been high. Huron: Crop magnificent, being ten days ahead in growth and 10 percent ahead in stand and cleanness. Potter: Was backward in early part of season, but the hot weather has sent it ahead. Brookings: Promises well. Clark: Doing well; not much planted. Davidson: Still fresh and looking well; the showers of the past few days will bring it out all right. Dunn: Crop is tiptop. Hand: A fair stand, but very small for time of season.
Iowa Ida: In fine condition. Mahaska: Though planted a little late, is growing splendidly, and is generally clean of weeds. It is of dark green color and stands well. Palo Alto: Never so promising at this date. Pocahontas: Remarkably fine. Weather condition all that could be desired, Potterawatomie: Stand injured by heavy washing rains at the beginning of June. Worth: Well advanced and moderately clean, Cherokee: In need of rain. Emmet: June has been exceedingly dry. The crop is not suffering yet. Humboldt: Has come rapidly forward during the hot weather of June. Lee: Doing well, and the hot weather has a tendency to retard the operations of the grub worm. Muscatine: Much had to be replanted, owing to the poor quality of the seed. It is now coming on all right, but the replanted corn is small. Marion: Making rapid growth and is clean. Wapello: Some pieces are late, but it is generally clean and now growing rapidly. It will average at least eighteen inches in height throughout the county. Wayne: More replanted than for many years and it is very uneven. Inferior seed was used and the spring was very cold.
When I was a girl, washday was always perfect dress, but land soiled; now since those busy folks invented washing machines, it's a chore no more.
CHEAPEST for it saves TIME, LABOR and CLOTHES.
Its cleaning power is unrivaled.

Fayette: Splendid weather for the crop, which is above the average. Guthrie: Very fine where it has had good cultivation; on low lands it is rather backward and grassy.

Lucas: Up to the normal, notwithstanding the excessive rains which have prevailed. Dubuque: Has a good stand, alive color, and is growing fast. Howard: Well advanced and clean. Buchanan: Condition never more promising at this date. Boone: Very small, but growing rapidly the past few days. Much had to be replanted on account of the poor seed used. Bremerton: Being rapidly pushed to the front. Clinton: Clean and growing rapidly. The conditions could not be more favorable for making a full crop.

Some is late, replanting being made necessary on account of the poor seed used. Washington: Promises to be the biggest crop ever grown here. Boasting, Courtland beach.
The TOIL Trade.
Alarmed by the rapid extension of the use of Indian teas in Europe and the consequent decline of the demand for the Chinese leaf, the Peking authorities have just issued a proclamation against the manufacture of what is significantly styled in the document as "the" tea. The proclamation points out that this "dastardly" practice has contributed more than anything else to bring about the wane of the Chinese tea trade and it declares that the authorities are determined to put a stop to it. People are warned not to make any tea excepting of the genuine tea leaves and if any person is discovered infringing this order he will be punished by transportation for life, a penalty which will be extended also to the seller and to the buyer, its well as to all others who have taken any part in the placing of adulterated tea upon the market.
The scanning of this document has been difficult due to the irregularities in the text, but the context suggests that the authorities are trying to protect the tea trade from the decline caused by the use of inferior products.
Christian Conrad of Dealware County, Iowa, who is 113 years old, remembers having met General Washington. "It was in Philadelphia," he recalls, "at the close of his last term as president. They had a great crowd and the road was filled with people for eleven miles. General Washington appeared at the head of the procession, and was accompanied by thirty-two of his old war officers and friends, and all on horseback. He rode a dapple-gray horse. He appeared to be a tall man, smooth-faced, large-nosed, and such a man as would be noticed in a crowd. General Washington made a speech that day and I heard him. I remember that he praised his generals and told the people to be loyal and true to the government. He told them if they would always listen to what General Jackson would say, they would never go astray."
Several minutes of silence followed, during which "Sol" said, "You reject me?" "I do," she replied calmly. "After these years of devotion to you that have shown..." She maintained a haughty silence. "But beware," he went on, "the worm will turn." Then she gave a shriek, an ear-piercing, heart-rending mixture of gurgle and vowels. "Oh!" she gasped, "you were right when you said the worm would turn." "What do you mean?" "A caterpillar has just done a somersault and landed on my rock," HARDWARE.

United State * Henntor Mitchell 1'roceodad
Acnuist l > jIlll mother.
MiL > VAUKEn , August 4. This city
furnishes an interesting' batch of news
with a financial tinge. A grand jur/
call to investigate the affairs of the
South Sldo Savings bank has been issued.
Robert Hill , vlco president and man
ager of the Wisconsin National bank ,
has lit out und Mrs. Alexander Mitchell
has begun Huit against her son , Senator
John L. Mitchell , for $200,000 , and
claims ho is $50,000 in arrears. The
suit of Mrs. Alexander Mltclioll against
her son will orcato a sensation. Great
olforts were made to keep the matter
quiet , but the signing of an order by
Judge Mann made tlio,1 suit public. So
quietly have the proceedings been con
ducted that the papertf.uttvo not yet boon
filed in court. When Alexander Mitch-
oil made his will on I V.embor 20 , I860 ,
ho pravo his wife # 200,000 outright
and permitted her oto take this in
stock in the Wisconsin Marino and
Plro Insurance compaW bank. Besides
ho gave her an ann'iHty of $50,000 , nnd
the magnificent Mitoluyl homestead on
Grand avenue and lentil street. On
Juno 17 , 1887 , Mrs. Mitchell executed a
voleaso of dower rightti'iSho did this in
consideration of $1 apd out of love and
affection for her son , npiy Senator Mitch
ell. This release covouod nil the prop
erty which was ownod' by the late Alex
ander Mitchell. , A jftiVato agreement
was made between Mrs. Mitchell and
her son , John L. Mitcjibil , by which she
gave up the homoBtoad and accepted a
yearly allowance instead. Slnco the
settlement of the estate Mrs. Mitchell ,
has rarely over visited Milwaukee. It is
thought that Senator Mitchell Is either
cltod to appear before tlio probate court
and show cause why ho has not paid the
allowance or el so ho is restrained from
disposing property necessary to cover
the claim of the mother. The no we that
Mrs , Mitchell has begun legal proceed
ings against her son , a United States
senator , will have the effect of causing
no end of gossip. Senator Mitchell Is
eald to bo in Washington at present.

BIDDING FOR THE BONDSit1
Public Work Dapendent on Success of Trcas-

REPORTS FROM BROKERS
N. W. Harris Writes thnt Good OITor * Mar
Ito ICxpeotcd If til * Cmn Msr He
1'nld In Inttnllmcnti Much
tIficniU on llio Snl .
Several thousand pcoplo are Tory much In-
tcrosted at this time as to whether the block
of $350.000 of long.and short tlmo bonds of
the city , which < Troastiror Dolln will place
upon tMoiharkot Thursday , August 17 , will
find takers. Thfi offer is ono of the largest
over mndo by the city at any ono tlmo , and
In case lie bonds are sold public work will
proceed and hundreds of idle mem will bo
provided with employment.
Owing to the condition of the money niar-
kol rtna thb llmtdtty bf capital nt the pres
ent tlmo a groaV ileal of Interest centers
about the coming sale of the bonds. In
times ijast Omaha securities have been
cnxerly'.soUght after and have always boon
rcpardcda's _ gilt edge in the financial world.
It Is confidently expected by Treasurer I3olln
and other city oflleials that the buls that will
bo received will bo good ones , and Cully at
test the superiority of Omaha paper. The
city hns-'novor.permitted a coupon or bond to
go unpaid , and in all cases has promptly mot
its obligations. The friends of Omaha among
the eastern , bond brokers are legion , and they
have always found it profitable to barcaln
for bonds of the city ana have never lacked
takers.
Jtavornulfl Hoaponio from Chicago.
A few day's alnco Treasurer Bolln sent out
a number of inquiries to the financial cen
tcrs regarding tlio possibility of floating the ,
bonds the 17tn. The time Juts been short
nnd It will bo a few days yet before nnsw6rs
nro received from the moro distant places.
However , ono reply has boon rocetvod nnd It
is most favorable. It Is from N. W.-Harris ,
the Chicago broker , who has in the past
handled as tunny Omaha securities as ttny
ono broker , nnd Is always present , with n bid
when an offer Is made. Air. Harris writes
that , while the money market is somewhat
stringent , ho believes that the bonds will
find takers nt good prices , providing the en
tire amount of cash is not required at onco.
If the delivery Is divided up into
thrco separate parts Mr. Harris believes
that no trouble will bo experienced in lloat-
ing the bonds to good advantage. This in
formation Is particularly cheering In vlow
of the fact that Chicago , Toledo , Buffalo
and ether eastern nnd oldur cltioi hitvo boon
compelled to rniso the rate of interest on
their bonds in order to lloat them. The
Omaha bonds that will bo.ofTered are of the
short and long tlmo issue and bear fi per
cent. Of the $350,000 , $100,000 each are
twenty year main sewer and intersection
paving bonds. The others are short time ,
district paving , grading und sewer bonds.
Public Work Dependent on Succois.
In case of the failure to float the bonds
public work will undoubtedly bo brought to
ti standstill. It is absolutely necessary to
llo.it the main sewer and intersection paving
bonds to permit the work to proceed. No
paving can bo done until the comptroller can
certify that the funds are available , which
ho cannot do until the bonds are sold. The
paving contractors , however , will un
doubtedly see to it that the bonds are sold.
It Is understood that they will submit bids
to tulco a portion of the issue. That is , cacti
contractor will put in a bid to cover the
amount of the intersection work in the dis
tricts to bo paved that ho has secured by
contract. Ho will then accept the bonds In
payment for the intersection work.
A city ofticlitl suggested yesterday morning
that it would bo a beneficial show of loyalty
in , case sotho of the nx'onled aioa who have
withdrawn their , deposits from ! tho'banks
would take some of the bonds. A long tlmo
investment , ho said , of 5 per cent was a good
one from a financial standpoint , and the
moro bids submitted the livelier the compe
tition and the better for the city. The
gentleman said that it would bo far bettor
for the Omaha capitalists with Idle money
to invest it in homo securities that would
provide employment for hundreds of idle
men ,

Tbo Board of Health is taking the pre
liminary stops in the wood crusade and will
follow the same up as fast as possible. .
Chief Inspector Sheorar has already caused
a largo number of notices to bo served upon
property owners to aba to the weed nuisances
existing on their promises and in case they
fall to do so the city pang of prisoners will
bo called upon to raze the woods to the
ground. In gach case where the property
owner neglects to cut the woods the city
will perform the work and the cost will bo
charged up against the property as a special
tax.

Tax ColhicuoiK lor July.
Tax collections for July by the city treas
urer were exceptionally good. During the
month 1253,509,40 in taxes for all years were
passed over the counter. The collections for
1893 were eoocl " , and the amount received on
that tax "durlug the month was $235,000 ,
making a total of this ycar's'tax now paid in
of about $430,000 out of the total of $000.000.
"That is a very good record , " remarked

Arrival of nn KmljjrHnt Bteam r from
ri C"o Infested .
"Now YORK , Aug. 4 ; Throodeaths occurred
on the Anchor line steamer Karmanla ,
which arrived here from Naples yesterday
with a general-cargo and 471 steerage pas'
sengors. It is suspected that the
persons may have died of chol
era. Dr. Jenkins , the health officer , ,
has detained the steamer for disinfection
and to find out-whafcausod the deaths , The
reason why pholera is suspected is that the
passengers got on the Karmanfa at Naples ,
where the scourge is racing. All on board
nro well today. Those who died were buried ,
at sea. They are Kosa Buccola , died July
17 , aged'47 ; .Maria dl Nocola , died August \
aged 23 ; Pascalo ttornualdo , died August 8 ! ]
nifod 40.
The strongo part of tha captain's report
was that , although two of the passengers
had died this morning when hia vessel was
almost In light of Fire Island , the bodies
were hastily Durlod at sea. This U a most
unusual circumstance , as it 1s customary ,
when a passenger dies so near .port , to bring
the body to land.
Tbo ihip's doctor declined to i y what was
the cause of death. Ho was informed of the
report that cholera or something llko It was
autpoctod. ' * ! must positively decline to say
anything on that subject,1 * wa § the reply.
"Dr. Jenkins has been aboard , and has my
report. If ho wishes to make it public be la
at liberty 00 to do. "
The doctor absolutely refused to aay any
thing moro. Three stoker * aald the three
person * died of a malady the principal symp
tom of which was aggravated diarrhoea , but
no ono could loam Ju t what the fact * wero.
The WAtchmnn In chfirjro 6t the ship said ho
ittdn't know what WAS the cmno of death
it1o.
except that thoio who filed had violent
illarrhrcn. ; 1 The vessel lies nbout a quarter
of ' a mlle off the quarantine dock. Dr.
If nkltu wax reported to bo in Now York last
nlffht In consultation with the Board of
Health.
§ The Karamnnla was board od tonight and
the ship's doctor ntkod ns to the causa of the
deaths. Ho positively refused to talk on
the subject , oven when Informed that a sus
picion prevailed that H was Asiatic cholera
that had cauiod thorn. Ho snIJ the health
ofllcor , Dr. JcnUlm , hail his rcpart in the
matter and could mnkIt , public
II ho doslrcd. A seaman of the

The receipts of hogs yesterday morning
wore oven smaller than had teen anticipated
by the most discouraged stock man on the
grounds. The number did not reach 700.
Prices hold ut > s lft and advanced 60 cents
from Thursday's quotations.
The little bunch'of hogs that did como in
wcro gobbled up early by the fresh moat
trade and speculators. The packers said they
would have bought freely yesterday If
there hod boon nny hogs to buy. Ono of
Cudahy's men said : "It was our Intention
to buy 1,000 or 1,500 hogs this morning , but ,
they were not to bo had. "
'How about the report that you have laid
naked by the reporter.
_ 'II Is not true , " said Mr. Marplcs. "Tho
company has reduced its force some , as wo
always do at this season of the year. Wo
have been killing from 1,000 to 3,000 hogs
dallv and have now cut down to killing nbout
1,000. This fact makes it necessary lo lot
some of the mon go. but ttioro is nothing like
100 men itflcctcd. Perhaps twcuty-llvo men
have Deem laid off. Wo are killing hogs right
along , and expect to continue doing so If wo
can got thorn. "
"Tho speculators , packers , commission
men nnd in fact all stock dealers have boon
greatly fooled on tlio hog business done in
July , " said a man at the yards yesterday
"No ono expected nny such receipts us wo
had all during July , The pcoplo did not bo-
llovo that the hogs wcro in the country.
That Is the truth of the situation , and this is
the vary reason that John Cudithy nnd the
other speculators on the Chicago market
dropped their roll. Ordinarily John Cudahy
could have realized $1,000,000 on the collat
eral ho holds , but when the show-down came
this time ho could not borrow a dollar. It is
my opinion , however , that it was n good
thing for him that ho could not , for the
longer ho held on the more ho would lose. "
Silver \Vns Uuod I2noujli.
A stock shipper from Wood Lake , Neb. ,
sold a bunch of cattle at the yards Thurs
day that came to $1,700. Ho was tcndorod
in payment for his stock a check , but re
fused to accept it. Ho was then hantlod a
New York draft for the amount , but the
farmer said that tlicro was only ono sort of
collateral ho would accept for his cutllo anl
that was the genuine old curioncy ,
either gold , greenbacks or sllvnr.
Ho didn't care a continental which
ono of these species were used , but it
had to bo ono of the thrco. The firm he
was doing business with then took him into
the bank nnd paid him his ? 1,700 ull in silver
nnd the old farmer united ns ho loaded his
heavy lucre on his back in n two-buthol sack
and started for Wood Latke , feeling doubly
assured that all the broken banks in the
country could not affect his mode of'doing
business. It was not learned whether he
was hold up on his way homo or not , but if
lie reached the farm with his load in safety
ho may consider himself lucky.

Dopow says it is a poor man's pauio , but , I
nm Inclined to bMlovo that the opulent auN
for fully ns much from the squeeze. Man
working on salaries are bettor oil and Have
less worry , so to speak , Just at present , than
mon who have capital Invested in

Colorado linn 1'lrntyof Company.
"I am exceedingly sorry for both rich and
poor , but the present tlmos are about as
tough In every nortlon of the United States
ins 1 have seen for many a year. Many ether
states are seeking to hldo tholr own com
mercial nnd ihmncHl depressions by
pointing to Colorado and raising a big
cry over thn silver question , and drawlug
pictures of Colorado's ruin , otc. The fact is.
that even ChiiMKn and all the metropolitan
renters of the cast are fouling the effect of
the stringency. Some people in the east are
just as hungry , - if not moro so ,
than some people In Color.tdo.
While the present depression . In
silver has certainly hurt Colorado and Im
periled that commonwealth , 1 anticipate
that the state will recover its former pros-
purity. As a matter of course , silver Is our
greatest interest and when that is crippled
it strikes at other industries. The re
sult is n most deplorable condition of
affairs in Colorado , but I anticipate
that congress will see the necessity of giving
the country some roltof on the present con
dition of lluanco in this country. I hope for
some favorable silver substitute for the
Sherman law.
Cnun * of tlio Origin.
"Tho cause of the regretablo state of hard
times is duo to several rorsous. i regard the
principal ones as the way in which the
iinancial stringency started In Europewnlch
made European capital timid. This feeling
spread to America. Manufacturers also
had a fear that congress would fool with the
t.-trlff laws , In vlow of the free trade tenden
cies of the democracy. When manufactur
ing industries , and men who invest capital In
them , show a timidity , it naturally
has a snrious effect on the situation.
Thii nnd a stupendous scare in financial
circles , with a tightness in the money mar
ket and inability to borrow , started the
ball rolling In the cast. Naturally , the
wave of depression swept over the couiitry
from coast to coast. Now , on top of this ,
came thu depression 111 silver , and that' nat
urally knocked out prosperity In Colorado
temporarily , in silver mininu. However ,
Colorado has gold mines. There are also
many undeveloped mines of the yellow metal
in that state Cripple Creek is
a gold camp and good producer , but
the situation of affairs has driven many sil
ver miners Into the camp , and the ru.sut
will bo u surplus of mining labor in that
locality.
AlliOnlot on tlio PliUtc. ,
"I do not anticipate any further bank
failures in Colorado , as I bclluvo that the
worst Is over. The fact Is that the people
were frightened , or more spocillcally speak
ing , 'rattled , ' and started ruus on banks
that no ilnuncial institution could success
fully resist under the circumstances. I bo-
lioro that the recent state election
in Colorado had something to
do with making eastern capital timid
over Colorado investments. The state
elected the populist tlukot , you know. It
broke away from both ol the old par
ties , and as a result eastern finances
felt a lack of confidence. If Cleveland -
land wants to save himself and his party
ho had better do something to relieve the
present condition at the extra session.
"I bollovo that Nebraska is hotter off than
most states just now , Irom observations I
have mndo on the trip. Nebraskaua should
oo thankful accordingly. "

Robert Hill, vice president and manager of the Wisconsin National Bank, has left and Mrs. Alexander Mitchell has begun suit against her son, Senator John L. Mitchell, for $200,000, and claims he is $50,000 in arrears. The suit of Mrs. Alexander Mitchell against her son will create a sensation. Great efforts were made to keep the matter quiet, but the signing of an order by Judge Mann made the suit public. So quietly have the proceedings been conducted that the petition has yet to be filed in court. When Alexander Mitchell made his will on December 20, 1860, he gave his wife $200,000 outright and permitted her to take this in stock in the Wisconsin Marine and Fire Insurance Company bank. Besides, he gave her an annuity of $50,000, and the magnificent Mitchell homestead on Grand avenue and Water street. On June 17, 1887, Mrs. Mitchell executed a release of dower rights. She did this in consideration of $1 and out of love and affection for her son, apply Senator Mitchell. This release covered all the property which was owned by the late Alexander Mitchell. A partial agreement was made between Mrs. Mitchell and her son, John L. Mitchell, by which she gave up the homestead and accepted a yearly allowance instead. Since the settlement of the estate, Mrs. Mitchell, has rarely ever visited Milwaukee. It is thought that Senator Mitchell is either clad to appear before the probate court and show cause why he has not paid the allowance or else he is restrained from disposing property necessary to cover the claim of the mother. The news that Mrs. Mitchell has begun legal proceedings against her son, a United States senator, will have the effect of causing no end of gossip. Senator Mitchell is said to be in Washington at present.

BIDDING FOR THE BONDS
Public Work Dependent on Success of Treasurer Bell's Efforts to find Takers,
REPORTS FROM BROKERS
N.W. Harris Writes that Good Offer Mar_expiry Expected if the bonds are of the Same Merit.
Several thousand people are very much interested at this time as to whether the block of $350,000 of long and short time bonds of the city, which Treasurer Bell will place upon the market on Thursday, August 17, will find takers. The offer is one of the largest ever made by the city at any one time, and in case the bonds are sold, public work will proceed and hundreds of idle men will be provided with employment.
Owing to the condition of the money market in the city at the present time a great deal of interest centers around the coming sale of the bonds. In times past Omaha securities have been eagerly sought after and have always been regarded as gilt-edged in the financial world. It is confidently expected by Treasurer Bell and other city officials that the bids that will be received will be good ones, and truly at test the superiority of Omaha paper. The city has never permitted a coupon or bond to go unpaid, and in all cases has promptly met its obligations. The friends of Omaha among the eastern bond brokers are legion, and they have always found it profitable to speculate in bonds of the city and have never lacked takers.
Several Days Ago Treasurer Bell Sent Out Inquiries Regarding the Possibility of Floating the Bonds on the 17th. The Time Has Been Short and It Will Be a Few Days Yet Before Answers Are Received from the More Distant Places. However, One Reply Has Been Received and It Is Most Favorable. It Is from N.W. Harris, the Chicago broker, who has in the past handled as many Omaha securities as any one broker, and Is always present, with a bid when an offer is made. Mr. Harris writes that, while the money market is somewhat stringent, he believes that the bonds will find takers at good prices, providing the entire amount of cash is not required at once. If the delivery is divided up into three separate parts, Mr. Harris believes that no trouble will be experienced in floating the bonds to good advantage. This information is particularly cheering in view of the fact that Chicago, Toledo, Buffalo and other eastern and older cities have been compelled to raise the rate of interest on their bonds in order to float them. The Omaha bonds that will be offered are of the short and long time issue and bear 5% interest. Of the $350,000, $100,000 each are twenty-year main sewer and intersection paving bonds. The others are short time, district paving, grading and sewer bonds.
Public Work Dependent on Success.
In case of the failure to float the bonds, public work will undoubtedly be brought to a standstill. It is absolutely necessary to float the main sewer and intersection paving bonds to permit the work to proceed. No paving can be done until the comptroller can certify that the funds are available, which he cannot do until the bonds are sold. The paving contractors, however, will undoubtedly see to it that the bonds are sold. It Is understood that they will submit bids to take a portion of the issue. That is, each contractor will put in a bid to cover the amount of the intersection work in the districts to be paved that he has secured by contract. He will then accept the bonds in payment for the intersection work.
A city official suggested yesterday morning that it would be a beneficial show of loyalty, in case some of the noted banks who have withdrawn their deposits from the banks would take some of the bonds. A long time investment, he said, of 5% per year was a good one from a financial standpoint, and the more bids submitted the livelier the competition and the better for the city. The gentleman said that it would be far better for the Omaha capitalists with idle money to invest it in home securities that would provide employment for hundreds of idle men.
Preparing for the Weed Campaign.
The Board of Health is taking the preliminary steps in the wood crusade and will follow the same up as fast as possible. Chief Inspector Scheurar has already caused a large number of notices to be served upon property owners to abate the weed nuisances existing on their premises and in case they fail to do so, the city gang of prisoners will be called upon to raise the woods to the ground. In each case where the property owner neglects to cut the woods, the city will perform the work and the cost will be charged up against the property as a special tax.
Approved the Contracts.
Mayor Bernhard has approved the following contracts, and they have been delivered to the Board of Public Works: Paving of Fifteenth Street from Howard to Jackson, with vitrified brick, Hugh Murphy. Curbing Twenty-second Street from Cuming to Izard; Pierce, Eighteenth to Twentieth; Thirtieth, Ames Avenue to Fort Street; Paul, Eighteenth to Twentieth, Hugh Murphy, contractor. The work of putting in the curbing will proceed at once.
Tax Collections for July.
Tax collections for July by the city treasurer were exceptionally good. During the month $125,509.40 in taxes for all years were passed over the counter. The collections for 1893 were good, and the amount received on that tax during the month was $235,000, making a total of this year's tax now paid in of about $430,000 out of the total of $850,000. "That is a very good record," remarked Head Bookkeeper Read, "and hardly supports the idea of hard times."
Propelling for Public Work.
The contract with M.J. Huso for making the water, sewer and gas connections on Nineteenth Street between Nicholas and Ohio, has been approved and Mr. Huso will commence work there Monday. Nineteenth Street will probably be macadamized and it is the desire of the property owners there to make it a pleasant driveway to connect with the north boulevard.
In GUARDIAN:
Arrival of an Emigrant Steamship from
"Now YORK, Aug. 4; Three deaths occurred on the Anchor line steamer Karmanla, which arrived here from Naples yesterday with a general cargo and 471 steerage passengers. It is suspected that the persons may have died of cholera. Dr. Jenkins, the health officer, has detained the steamer for disinfection and to find out what caused the deaths. The reason why cholera is suspected is that the passengers got on the Karmanla at Naples, where the scourge is raving. All on board are well today. Those who died were buried at sea. They are Rosa Buccola, died July 17, aged 47; Maria di Nicolai, died August 3, aged 23; Pasquale Tornamundo, died August 8, aged 40.
The strongest part of the captain's report was that, although two of the passengers had died this morning when his vessel was almost in sight of Fire Island, the bodies were hastily buried at sea. This is a most unusual circumstance, as it is customary, when a passenger dies so near port, to bring the body to land.
The ship's doctor declined to say what was the cause of death. He was informed of the report that cholera or something like it was suspected. "I must positively decline to say anything on that subject," was the reply.
"Dr. Jenkins has been aboard, and has my report. If he wishes to make it public, he is at liberty to do so." The doctor absolutely refused to say anything more. Three stokers said the three persons died of a malady the principal symptom of which was aggravated diarrhea, but no one could learn just what the facts were. The Watchman in charge of the ship said he didn't know what was the cause of death except that those who died had violent diarrhea. The vessel lies about a quarter of a mile off the quarantine dock. Dr. Jenkins was reported to be in New York last night in consultation with the Board of Health.
The Karmanla was boarded tonight and the ship's doctor took the cause of the deaths. He positively refused to talk on the subject, even when informed that a suspicion prevailed that it was Asiatic cholera that had caused them. He said the health officer, Dr. Jenkins, had his report in the matter and could make it public if desired. A seaman of the Karmanla (said those who had died) had violent diarrhea. Beyond this, he knew nothing of the cause of death.
The health officer boarded the suspected steamer this morning and examined the passengers. He found no evidence of cholera, but the ship will be held and the passengers disinfected as a matter of precaution.
Good appetite, healthy digestion, and lively blood are given by Hood's Sarsaparilla. Electrolytic storeroction views at Courtland bench tonight.
AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA.
Upward demand for pork products continue throughout the increse.
The receipts of hogs yesterday morning were even smaller than had been anticipated by the most discouraged stockman on the grounds. The number did not reach 700. Prices held steady and advanced 60 cents from Thursday's quotations.
The little bunch of hogs that did come in were gobbled up early by the fresh meat trade and speculators. The packers said they would have bought freely yesterday if there had been any hogs to buy. One of Cudahy's men said: "It was our intention to buy 1,000 or 1,500 hogs this morning, but, they were not to be had."
"How about the report that you have laid off by the reporter."
"It is not true," said Mr. Marples. "The company has reduced its force some, as we always do at this season of the year. We have been killing from 1,000 to 3,000 hogs daily and have now cut down to killing about 1,000. This fact makes it necessary to let some of the men go, but there is nothing like 100 men affected. Perhaps twenty-five men have been laid off. We are killing hogs right along, and expect to continue doing so if we can get them."
"The speculators, packers, commission men and in fact all stock dealers have been greatly fooled on the hog business done in July," said a man at the yards yesterday. "No one expected any such receipts as we had all during July. The people did not believe that the hogs were in the country. That is the truth of the situation, and this is the very reason that John Cudahy and the other speculators on the Chicago market dropped their roll. Ordinarily John Cudahy could have realized $1,000,000 on the collateral he holds, but when the show-down came this time he could not borrow a dollar. It is my opinion, however, that it was a good thing for him that he could not, for the longer he held on the more he would lose."
Silver was held elusive.
A stock shipper from Wood Lake, Neb., sold a bunch of cattle at the yards Thursday that came to $1,700. He was tendered in payment for his stock a check, but refused to accept it. He was then handed a New York draft for the amount, but the farmer said there was only one sort of collateral he would accept for his cattle and that was the genuine old currency, either gold, greenbacks or silver. He didn't care a continental which one of these species were used, but it had to be one of the three. The firm he was doing business with then took him into the bank and paid him his $1,700 all in silver and the old farmer, with his heavy sack of money on his back, started for Wood Lake, feeling doubly assured that all the broken banks in the country could not affect his mode of doing business. It was not learned whether he was held up on his way home or not, but if he reached the farm with his load in safety he may consider himself lucky.
Prizes for the Picnic.
The St. Agnes' parish picnic will take place on Saturday and the festivities will continue from 10 o'clock in the morning until as far into the evening as the people care to enjoy themselves. The following prizes have been offered:
100-yard foot race, hat by Tom Flynn; two boxes of cigars by Weldon & McDonough.
Potato race, one sack of flour by Ettor & Sons and two umbrellas by John Flynn.
Ladies race, a hat by Mrs. Lovely and two boxes of perfumery by C.A. Molcher.
Boys race, one suit of clothes by Burnotto Bros.
Sack race, an album by Charles Singer.
Dinner and supper will be served on the grounds for all who wish to take an outdoor meal in the grove.
His Wife Had Company.
When Tom Roche went home about 3 o'clock yesterday morning, he found company in the same room with his wife was a man named D.M. Ferguson. As soon as Roche made the discovery, he rushed out and found Officer Miller, whom he asked to arrest Ferguson. Miller locked the man up with the understanding that Roche would appear in the police court and prosecute him.
Ferguson was arraigned, but inasmuch as Roche did not appear, he was discharged. It will be a very chilly morning before Roche can work Miller or any other Officer on the same racket, again.
Captured Tire Sniffer,
Two of the men who blew the Union Pacific safe at Papillion on Tuesday night have been arrested, and are now in jail at Lincoln. Thursday evening Policeman Tom Emminger received a telegram to come to Lincoln and identify the men suspected, He did so, as did Mr. Fox, the agent at Albright, who told the men their tickets to Lincoln.
When searched in Lincoln, the Subpoena poets had a little money and some papers taken from the safe in their possession. There were four of them in the job, but the other two have made peace their escape. Could Not Collect Their Due. The commission firm of Gasman & Dudley, one of the largest firms doing business at the yards, failed Thursday. The heaviest creditor the firm had was the South Omaha National bank, where they owed several thousand dollars. The firm has loaned out considerable money to dealers over the state, and the fact that they have been unable to collect in these loans is the reason assigned for their failure.

SEQUEL TO A NATION'S SORROW
Hon. A.A. McCovnov Gives an Interesting Talk on the Trying Time
VIEWS OF A COLORADO STATE SENATOR, Unit Democratic to Unomocratic-Other States' Making Their Own Depressions
Hope for Revenue to Govern All Concerns Spectacularly Very Soon.
Hon. A.A. McCovnov, of Colorado Springs, Colo., is registered at the Capitol. Mr. McCovnov is a member of the upper branch of the Colorado Legislature. He is also actively interested in the mining, banking, and mercantile interests of the Silver state. As a financier, his ability secured him the chairmanship of the Banking committee of the senate of the ninth general assembly of the Colorado Legislature. He is generally regarded, at home and abroad, as a man who is well posted on monetary matters.
"I regard the present financial stringency as a rich man's panic, as well as a poor man's employment famine," said Senator McCovnov yesterday, "I second Depew's statement that it is a poor man's panic, but, I am inclined to believe that the affluent as much from the squeeze. Men working on salaries are better off and have less worry, so to speak, just at present, than men who have capital invested in industries. Wage earners, as a rule, have always lived economically and have not much money saved up for the crash, but rich men who have been accustomed to every luxury find themselves suddenly thrust into a state of hardship and poverty, or are otherwise compelled to take a dose of heroic economy to which they are not accustomed. By economy, I mean that, even in the household, men of capital are forced to retrench expenses, as well as chopping down payrolls at the factory or at the store.
Colorado has Forty of Company.
"I am exceedingly sorry for both rich and poor, but the present times are about as tough in every portion of the United States as I have seen for many a year. Many other states are seeking to hold their own commercial and financial depressions by pointing to Colorado and raising a big cry over the silver question, and drawing pictures of Colorado's ruin, etc. The fact is, that even Chicago and all the metropolitan centers of the east are feeling the effect of the stringency. Some people in the east are just as hungry, if not more so, than some people in Colorado.
While the present depression in silver has certainly hurt Colorado and imperiled that commonwealth, I anticipate that the state will recover its former prosperity. As a matter of course, silver is our greatest interest and when that is crippled it strikes at other industries. The result is a most deplorable condition of affairs in Colorado, but I anticipate that congress will see the necessity of giving the country some relief from the present condition of finance in this country. I hope for some favorable silver substitute for the Sherman law.
Cause of the Origin.
"The cause of the regrettable state of hard times is due to several forces. I regard the principal ones as the way in which the financial stringency started in Europe, which made European capital timid. This feeling spread to America. Manufacturers also had a fear that congress would feel with the tariff laws, in view of the free trade tendencies of the democracy. When manufacturing industries, and men who invest capital in them, show a timidity, it naturally has a serious effect on the situation.
This and a stupendous scare in financial circles, with a tightness in the money market and inability to borrow, started the ball rolling in the east. Naturally, the wave of depression swept over the country from coast to coast. Now, on top of this, came the depression in silver, and that naturally knocked out prosperity in Colorado temporarily, in silver mining. However, Colorado has gold mines. There are also many undeveloped mines of the yellow metal in that state. Cripple Creek is a gold camp and good producer, but the situation of affairs has driven many silver miners into the camp, and the result will be a surplus of mining labor in that locality.
Allison Act on the Plate.
"I do not anticipate any further bank failures in Colorado, as I believe that the worst is over. The fact is that the people were frightened, or more specifically speaking, 'rattled,' and started runs on banks that no financial institution could successfully resist under the circumstances. I believe that the recent state election in Colorado had something to do with making eastern capital timid over Colorado investments. The state elected the populist ticket, you know. It broke away from both of the old parties, and as a result, eastern finances felt a lack of confidence. If Cleveland wants to save himself and his party, he had better do something to relieve the present condition at the extra session.
"I believe that Nebraska is better off than most states just now, from observations I have made on the trip. Nebraskans should be thankful accordingly."

WESTERN OF
Two Town Counties Want the Honor and Profit of Killing Silver Couplers.
DUBoque, Aug. 4. "No Man's Land" Cascade, on the western border of Dubuque county, is within 500 yards of Jones county, which has jurisdiction of offenses there if it took jurisdiction first. This jurisdiction it has exercised in the past. The local moonshiners of "No Man's Land" Cascade have been indicted and fined there periodically for violating the prohibitory law. Warrants were issued again in Jones county July 31. The prohibition enforcement board of it and had them voluntarily surrendered in Cascade. Squire Baldwin gave them 10 days to post bond. To release them on bonds would be to expose them to arrest later by the Jones county sheriff, and Baldwin therefore remanded them to Constable Carroll's custody pending arraignment. When Sheriff Logan of Jones county appeared in Cascade with warrants last evening, Carroll would not let him have the prisoners.
Jones county's attorney then said he would send up the case from Monticello and Dubuque counties. Carroll was instructed to hold the prisoners at any cost. He placed them in jail and prepared to hold the fort, but Squire Huldwin deprecated bloodshed and persuaded Carroll to flee with his prisoners to Dubuque. They stole across the country roads during the night, taking the train for Dubuque at Evansworth. Last night Carroll was sent home with his prisoners and the instructions from the county attorney and sheriff were to arrest him and his posse if they attempted to take the saloon keepers.
Death of J.H. Knipp,
ST. Louis, Aug. 4. James H. Knipp, a brother of Charles Knupp, president and general manager of the St. Louis Republic, died here of heart failure, aged 42 years. He was receiver of public moneys at Santa Fe, N.M., during Cleveland's former administration. In 1891 he became business manager of the Rocky Mountain News, but ill health obliged him to resign in a few months and he has not since been actively engaged in business.

I'OISTJ OM VOM31KKUIAT LAW.
OMAHA , Auj ? . 4. To the Editor of THE
BEE : I think the present Is a Rood oppor
tunity for the merchants nnd bankers of
this state to look around anil try to find out
the real causes of the present financial
troubles and , If possible , to adopt sotno plans
to prevent tliolr recurrence.
Wo all agree 'that the chief reason la n
lack of stability and confidence , nnd I think
ono of the causes of the latter Is a serious
deficiency Inthoconimerclnllawof the state ,
which allows n merchant to give preference
to any of his fancied creditors u day or two
bctoro ho falls , to the detriment of others.
If n man cannot pay his debts in England ,
his property Is divided equally nmonff his
creditors , and any assignment or other deed
relating to the transfer of property with a
view to the giving n preference to any
creditor or any attachment by a creditor , Is
void , if the failure of the debtor occurs within
three months of the date of such deed ,
and the property reverts to the estate of the
insolvent man for the benefit of all his
creditors.
The position in this state Is as follows : A
man sees ho must fall and ho trives notice to
his bank or the jobbers who are most likely
to assist him to start again. They attach
his property nnd got paid In full to the
detriment of the eastern creditor. This is
all very nlco for the local people , but do they
realize the effect it has upon the eastern
capitalists who got left ? They naturally put
the westerners down as a lot of swindlers.
I was continually told in Now York that the
motto out west was : "Do others up or they
will do you. " All jobbers nnd bankers in
the west uro being pushed at the present
moment by their inability to discount trade
bills , and to my mind it Is a direct outcome
of the aboro unsatisfactory stnto of affairs.
With regard to the banks , they themselves
should bo anxious to take the public into
their confidence as much as possible , so as
to prevent any distrust which ends in the
terrible scenes witnessed by western states.
At present most banks publish periodically n
statement of their liabilities and assets ,
sworn to by the cashier. In some cases the
very next day after such publication the
bank has closed its doors , nnd in ono or two
cases the cashier or president have been
guilty of robbery on n Inrpo scalo. This

Wo all know that the banks are supposed
to bo examined by tlio batik examiners.
Now thcroaro , I believe , 132 national banks
in this state ; how can ono man efllciontly
examine the accounts of such a number ,
spread over such a largo territory ? Ho
naturally has to accept the statements of
the presidents and cashiers ns correct. No
man could possibly muko any kind of satis
factory examination of any firm's books
under & week or ten days. Now , I believe
that if the largo banks would adopt the
English plan and have their accounts ex
amined by expert accountants periodically ,
who would glvo them a certificate for publi
cation , the smaller bunks would bo com
pelled to follow suite and their weakness
would soon bo exposed , whereby the public
would bo able to discriminate between the
solid and the weak. EIINKST HJLUT.

The onlcers vho have been working to
solve the supposed mystery concerning the
death of Carl Stcllmachcr report that there
is nothing to warrant the belief that the
man mot with foul play. At first thcro
seemed to bo smo circumstantial evidence ,
but all clews were followed to the end with
out results.
When Stcllnmcher's goods were evicted by
Constable Ding/man some person or persons
stole n case of very line surgical Instruments
which were presented to the unfortunate
man when ho wan an oflluer in the Prussian
army. A private drawer In ono of his desks
was also robbed of some papers of more or
loss Importance. The ofllcors have made n
thorough search fortho missing articles nnd
have visited all the paunshopa , but were
unable to locate them. It is thought that
the stolen property has been removed from
the city or has been carefully concealed by
the thloves. It Is now agreed that Stull-
macher committed suicldo while in a lit of
despondency ,

POST OFFICE CORRUPT LAW.
OMAHA, Aug. 5. To the Editor of THE
BEE: I think the present is a good opportunity
for the merchants and bankers of
this state to look around and try to find out
the real causes of the present financial
troubles and, if possible, to adopt some plans
to prevent their recurrence.
We all agree that the chief reason is a
lack of stability and confidence, and I think
one of the causes of the latter is a serious
deficiency in the commercial law of the state,
which allows a merchant to give preference
to any of his fancied creditors a day or two
before he falls, to the detriment of others.
If a man cannot pay his debts in England,
his property is divided equally among his
creditors, and any assignment or other deed
relating to the transfer of property with a
view to the giving a preference to any
creditor or any attachment by a creditor, is
void, if the failure of the debtor occurs within
three months of the date of such deed,
and the property reverts to the estate of the
insolvent man for the benefit of all his
creditors.
The position in this state is as follows: A man sees that he must fall and he tries to notify his bank or the jobbers who are most likely to assist him to start again. They attach his property and get paid in full to the detriment of the eastern creditors. This is all very nice for the local people, but do they realize the effect it has upon the eastern capitalists who got left? They naturally put the westerners down as a lot of swindlers. I was continually told in New York that the motto out west was: "Do others up or they will do you." All jobbers and bankers in the west are being pushed at the present moment by their inability to discount trade bills, and to my mind it is a direct outcome of the abhor unsatisfactory state of affairs. With regard to the banks, they themselves should be anxious to take the public into their confidence as much as possible, so as to prevent any distrust which ends in the terrible scenes witnessed by western states. At present most banks publish periodically a statement of their liabilities and assets, sworn to by the cashier. In some cases the very next day after such publication the bank has closed its doors, and in one or two cases the cashier or president have been guilty of robbery on an immense scale. This certainly proves that one cannot rely on the formidable-looking oaths taken before a notary public. If these men are dishonest it is to their interest to take the biggest-looking oath they can, so as to gull the public.
We all know that the banks are supposed to be examined by the bank examiners. Now there are, I believe, 132 national banks in this state; how can one man efficiently examine the accounts of such a number, spread over such a large territory? He naturally has to accept the statements of the presidents and cashiers as correct. No man could possibly make any kind of satisfactory examination of any firm's books under a week or ten days. Now, I believe that if the large banks would adopt the English plan and have their accounts examined by expert accountants periodically, who would give them a certificate for publication, the smaller banks would be compelled to follow suit and their weakness would soon be exposed, whereby the public would be able to discriminate between the solid and the weak. ELKINS HOLT.
Are You Insured? If not, now is the time to provide yourself and family with a bottle of Chamberlain's colic, choler, and diarrhea remedy as an insurance against any serious results from an attack of bowel complaint during the summer months. It is almost certain to be needed and should be procured at once. No other remedy can take its place or do its work. 25 and 50-cent bottles for sale by druggists.
STOLEN FROM A SUICIDE.
Some hasty thief helped himself to a large part of the stock of the late Carl Stellmacher. The officers who have been working to solve the supposed mystery concerning the death of Carl Stellmacher report that there is nothing to warrant the belief that the man met with foul play. At first there seemed to be some circumstantial evidence, but all clues were followed to the end without results.
When Stellmacher's goods were evicted by Constable Dingman some person or persons stole a case of very fine surgical instruments which were presented to the unfortunate man when he was an officer in the Prussian army. A private drawer in one of his desks was also robbed of some papers of more or less importance. The officers have made a thorough search for the missing articles and have visited all the pawnshops, but were unable to locate them. It is thought that the stolen property has been removed from the city or has been carefully concealed by the thieves. It is now agreed that Stellmacher committed suicide while in a state of despondency.
It Cured Her and Her Children.
Proprietors, Robertson Co., N.O. We gave a bottle of Chamberlain's colic, choler, and diarrhea remedy to a gentleman whose wife was bad off with bowel complaint and it cured her. Her children were also taken with bowel complaint and it cured them. It is certainly a good preparation. Alderman & Liu.
As we know from experience, "Juno," the sparkling farce comedy which has been performed with continuous success for seventeen months, six of which were given in New York and four in Boston, will be seen at Boyd's, Tuesday and Wednesday nights. The comedy bubbles over with mirth and the humor is of the light, agreeable, and quickly apprehended kind. The story of "Juno," with all its amusing wit, does not, however, reveal all the fun there is in it; its dialogue is bright, with speeches that derive their humor partly from the circumstances, and partly from the quick, lively apprehension of the actors, and few actresses on the stage have a more distinct individuality than Miss Jennie Yeaman, whose personification of June is said to be the best of any.
Chance for the Unemployed.
The chief of police received a letter from Sells Bros. Circus, which is now giving performances in Missouri, stating that they understood there were a great many unemployed men in Omaha. The letter stated that they were short of help and could give employment to about forty strong men who were willing to work hard for good wages during the remainder of the summer season. Forty years in the market with a constant lucrative sales tells the tale for Cook's Extra Dry Imperial Champagne.

assurcil a friend this week that ho proposed
to sco the free silver people given a fair Held.
'Ho did not doubt , he said , that President
Cleveland was In earnest In his nntl-sllvcr

so'iato must of course go forward slowly and
conservatively.

Thcro is a hint worthy of some attention
in this sort of mild mannered sugirostlvc-
ness , coming from Iho source it docs. Sena
tor Gorman has said to a friend : "You
know the United States senate is a deliberate
body. It novcr acts hurriedly. I fear that
organised action on contested scats nnd
similar affairs in direct consequence to the
senate may consume much time before w (
nro ubio to devote ourselves to the financial

LEAHVII.LE , Aug. 5. [ Special to Tun BEE. ]
There Is but one Lcadvlllo In the world ,
there has novcr been another and the
chances are that the one which now exists
will bo known only In history 'unless a most
radical change In the condition of nffuits
takes place within the next sixty days , for
at the end of that period of tlmo thu indica
tions now are. that the famous city of silver
will bo wiped ofT the face of the earth and will
not even bo given n place oil thd maps of the
state of Colorado. Two months \ngo this
city , situated In the very heart of the Kocky
mountains , contained a population of fully
20,000 persons and was known far and wide
as the great silver mining center ot the
world.
The town Is best reached by going over
the Denver & Uio Grande railroad , which
runs from Denver to Pueblo , where It turns
and winds up Into tlio mountains , passing
through the Uoyal c.won of the Arkansas
until it climbs to the summit , of the snow-
clad hills , landing its passengers at the city
that has been making history and silver
since early in 1S79 , at whlqh time tholorigl-
nal discovery was made In California gulch ,
which lies just to the south and almost
within a stone's throw of the richest silver
mines In the world.
Thu location of the city 'Is sightly In the
extreme , th j land sloping gently' westward
toward the Arkansas river , affording a nat
ural drainage that could not ba excelled for
the immense water shed that constitutes
Its rugged background.

Between the city nnd the Mosquito rango.
to the eastward , rise four distinct ( parallel
benches , each higher than Its neighbor ,
Carbonate , Iron , Breoce and Ball mountains ,
the ascent being gradual from the city's ele
vation of 10,000 feet to tno summit of Mo
squito range , whose crest rises 1'i.OOO feet
above the level of the sea. Across the broad
valley of the Arkansas , its summit clothed
in perpetual snow , rises.Mount Massive , its
altitude , 14i51 ! feet , being 200 ( Joet higher
than the famed Pike's peak , and not re
motely con nected on the south by Its rugged
neighbor , Mount Elbert. cjuito us highto ; -

rises In graceful contour and majestic splen

character of the rebellion.
The discovery of California gulch dates
back lo ISOO , when a few harJy prospectors ,
lured to Colorado by the reported richness
of placer diggings at Cherry 9reek , near
Denver , came nonce In search of gold. Their
labor was abundantly rowa'rded , for while
much that relates to tlio oirry settlement is
Intertwined with myth and .legend , It , Is n
well attested fact tha't something illto $15-
000,030 of glittering gold' were taken from
the bed of California crcek b'ofore the main
body of pioneer woalth-suokers stampeded
to more promising Holds. A fovv , however ,
remained to work out the destinies of the
gold diggings , as well as tholr , own , Im
pressed with the beliefthut the source of
the precious mineral must surqly .bo in tin
hills that hemmed in the ' guluh on thrci
sides. '
Later Discoveries.
A now era of more enduring brightness
for California gulch came sixteen jyoars later
when , after all of this p.ulcnl search foi
gold boarhiK rock In place , the persevering
prospectors were rewarded by rtho discover )
of that for which they had been searching-
fabulous deposits of lead carbonate ore , rlcl
In its sliver contents. After such Ion ;
and patient toil , the early discoverers o
what has since been proven to 1)3 the riches

tlncnt may bo pardoned for their efforts u

patent their lands , but In this they won

llux of the fortune hunters soon sot In am
u by the 1st of January , 1S77 , the invasion o
o the gulch began. Hoports of the marvelou

i' that by the close of 1878 not a fewer numbo
than 1,500 people were clustered togntho
In log cabins and touts among the sago brusl
and pluo stumps on. the northern rim o
California gulch. Then came the groatos
stampede that the world has over known
and the rapid transformation of the minlni
hamlet to a city of 80,000 souls within
period of scarcely six months , The hlstor ,
of that brief era would till many volumes , s

Thoclty wns soon Incorporatednnd began n
once to take on all of the myriad phases of mei
ropolftan nnd cosmopolitan life. After oarc

chosen for the now metropolis of the moui

With characteristic enterprise , and !

Looklngdown upon L ? dvilla a few months

with Its thousands of inhabitants ; with
Its score of smelters and furnaces ; with Us
army of diggers in the mines ; with Us hand-

and with Us long rows ot costly residences , It
wns the largest and fairest representation of

thoclouds that has oycr surprised the world.
ThhiKi Are Changed Now.
Dut now all things have changed , nnd a

still and qulot as the gnivo. Thu' mines
have closed and' the miles upon miles
of shafts , drifts , levels and tunnels

business houses have closed their doors ,
their owners have boarded up the windows
and have loft for the states to chase another
goddess of fortune one who does not cover
her trail with stiver to lure her victims on
In the wild race for wealth. .
Regarding the mining Industries of the

the county of Laku , tnere are 1U,4-19 loca

council , though within the knowledge of cer
tain of the czar's advisors. Minister Witto
is charged with underestimating Germany's
strength In forcing the custom war , while
open reprot Is expressed that it was over
begun.
Clminplon 11 f Itnstl-.i'i Camo.
The Moscow Gazette ROCS further and de
clares that the action of the Russian goucrn-
ment was taken simply In self-defense.
Germany , argues the Gazette , began the at
tack by introducing a differential tariff und
Russia , after long suffering und delay , re
plied -defense of her own interests by
merely imposing the maximum tariff upon
German Imports ?
The Gazette hero overlooks the fact that
dues on German * ships entering Russian
ports-are raised to such nu enormous llgurc
as to bo almost equivalent to a blockade.
The tone of the onicial article ; , however.
breathes peace. They conclude by asserting
.hat . Russia docs not wish to increase the
'Omplications ' that exist , but alms now , as
'ormerly , at n harmonious settlement of in-
.ernationnl questions.
Another indication thut the customs war
trill soon terminate , is the fact that a mutual
grecment has been entered into not to cn-
; ige in a grain freight war , which was
dreaded by commercial men as being certain
o exasperate everyone concerned iu internal
.rade. Some Russian government organs
amcut or'excuse the situation and the
erman press follows the same course. The
geucraljjpinion of the business world.hcro is
steady resolution not to give in until Rus-
slafihows a willingness to reduce her tariff ,
ivlll bo the speediest road to an agreement.
Iinys the Illume rm Itussl.i.
The North German Gazette , commenting
upon Russia's abrupt danger of front from
negotiating a treaty to hostile action ,
dangerous to Russian interests , publishes
.iiiiles showing the former and the cxistlnir
lusslan duties and comparing them with
.ho German tariff on Russian goods. The
llgurcs provo that the German tariff
amounts on an average to only lii par cent of
the value of the goods and , In some few In
stances , to 50 , whereas the Russian duties
before the war began averaged 100 per cent ,
ind wore now raised to an impracticable
iiclght. This comparison finally settles the
Russian assertion that Germany Initiated
the conflict by raising her tariff and com
pelling Russia to raise hers.
Reports current that the negotiations
for an Austro-Russlau treaty of commerce
are actively progressing towards an agree
ment , do not at all disturb official circles
here. Austria has a right to arrange .what
ever commercial relations she choosas. The
trade between .Russia and Austro-Hungary
is the merest nothing when compared
with the international trade between Rus
sia and Germany. The triple alliance
treaties do not touch upon commercial ques
tions. Germany can do without Russian
craln and the sum of odlclal opinion Is that
that the Russp-Au9trlan treaty , If it Is over
concluded , will not Imparll the settlement of
the Husso Gorman tariff troubles in a man
ner satisfactory to Germany , It is to bo
hoped thut when the Reichstag reassembles ,
iho government will be able to announce
that Russia has recovered her senses.
Rumors are currant on tnc hourso that
Russia Is trying to raise from Paris banker
a loan of 15,000,000 roubles at a nor cent.

Will Act Quickly.

The General Interest Exalting.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-Special Telegram to
The Daily News: Wall street is looking to Congress
for its cue. There has developed among market
tabulators this week an idea that the politicians will expeditiously repeal the Sherman silver purchasing law, and that through such promptness the country will be restored to that will warrant buoyancy in the stock market. This is a remarkable expectation, but none the less Wall street has been hoisting quotations on the strength of it. So far as information from really reliable sources which reach here from Washington rolled the prospects in Congress, a different condition is indicated. A long session and a bitter fight may be counted on confidently.
Senator Wolcott of Colorado, who dropped into Wall street this week, said to a friend: "You fellows here in the east seem to think that It Is going to be one, two, three, and out for the silver men and the whole west. It wouldn't take us long to show that you are mistaken."
Senator David B. Hill is credited with having assured a friend this week that he proposed to see the free silver people given a fair field. "He did not doubt," he said, "that President Cleveland was in earnest in his anti-silver law crusade, but in a matter of such importance, said Mr. Hill, the United States senate must of course go forward slowly and conservatively.
There is a hint worthy of some attention in this sort of mild mannered suggestiveness, coming from the source it does. Senator Gorman has said to a friend: "You know the United States senate is a deliberate body. It never acts hurriedly. I fear that organized action on contested seats and similar affairs in direct consequence to the senate may consume much time before we are able to devote ourselves to the financial question."
Wall street speculators have lifted overactive stock materially. Some of them have jumped up a dozen points or more. The enormous interest in the market that they were able to start something of a bear panic, contracts on that side having been pushed out in every direction, and largely by little fellows, until it has become unwieldy. Many stocks are commanding premiums for use in making deliveries. Now most of the short interest has been eliminated. Dull campaigners maintain that it was not the short interest which enabled them to put the market up. The explanation is that the country at large has been buying stocks because they have gone down to a point where they are unquestionably bargains.
These general purchases, they declare, have been prompted by the belief that President Cleveland's message is going to be a moulded expression of patriotism. One cut of yarn has it that the president will recommend the issue of new government bonds and that he will advocate giving to national banks the right to use these bonds up to their par as a basis for the new circulation. Lots of other dates us, all of them certain, are given to what the president is going to say to Congress. The advance in the market has been in the face of growing demoralization in business circles. The scare which has done so much out west has extended to New England. A long list comes out every day of big mills cutting down on time, reducing forces of employees or shutting up altogether. These things are put down as efforts at adaptation to times. So far New England has no big or federal failures. In this city trade is in a bad way.
A local newspaper which has scanned the subject, estimates that 7000 laborers are in enforced idleness. Perhaps this is exaggerated, but there can be no denying that labor is being severely pinched here and hereabouts.
Clearing house certificates, approximating 1,309,000, are now outstanding. This is nearly as ever before were issued. There is no telling how much longer the banks may find it necessary to go on grinding out this improvised "relief."
An influential member of the Clearing House association tells me that he would not be surprised if it reaches $45,000,000. On the other side is heard the assertion that no clearing house bank will be allowed to fail. The big banks of this city are undoubtedly in good shape. What can be said for the bankers themselves are saying with a good deal of vim is that so far as banking relations of the ordinary sort are concerned, we now have here practically a suspension of payment with outside cities. Even the treasury here, and, in fact, the treasury at Washington itself, have been refused payment in cash when presenting checks for collection.
Brokers are advertising in local newspapers offering premiums of $5 to $15 thousand for currency of any sort, one house explicitly offering $75 for silver dollars. People having payrolls to meet or having other calls which require the use of small amounts of money are embarrassed. But it is, as a matter of fact, one of the small conditions in the financial distress this center. Much is heard of the $10,000,000 or $15,000,000 of gold bought on the outside and shipped here. These engagements have now stopped. Sterling exchange has advanced to the prohibitory point. The gold was supposed to be scheduled for the use of local banks and thus bring relief to the currency situation. A fact which will be disclosed next week is that five-sixths of the gold coinage is to be exclusively into savings bank vaults.
The country is in shape where improvement can come quickly.
In no recent year have retailers throughout the country been carrying such small stocks of goods as they now hold. The recovery of confidence and the springing up of trade would start a boom that might hustle quickly into great proportions. ALFRED W. MASON.
Press, Aug. 5. The iron and steel plant of Jones & Laughlin will put on double shifts Monday, giving employment to about 8,500 men. Brown & Co., sheet and hammer mills will also resume next week. These works employ 600 men. The wire and nail mills of the Carnegie company at Beaver Falls will start up Monday and the rod mill will resume operations later in the week. The report that the Allegheny Bessemer Steel works of Carnegie's at Duquesne will close down is denied, the demand being sufficient to keep it running for some time to come.
Louisville Bank Proprietary to Kennett. LOUISVILLE, Aug. 5. The report of the condition of the Louisville City bank, which recently suspended payments, was forwarded to Washington by Examiner Bolts this morning, and the report of the Merchants National was sent by tonight's mail. The Fourth National will also be ready to report by Monday. There is considerable rivalry between the City and the Merchants National banks as to which will first resume payments. Both Banks have been reported to Comptroller Eckles as perfectly solvent.
At the Kentucky National, no official information of the action of the comptroller on the report of Bank Examiner TS Scott had been received, though it is expected at any time. The reported intention of the comptroller to give the bank ten days in which to prepare for the resumption of payments has not been officially continued. The bank officials do not think there is any probability of the appointment of a receiver.
Displaced in Silver Question. FITCHBURG, Aug. 5-Special Telegram to The Bee. A very large and appreciative audience greeted Dr. L. J. Abbott in the city park tonight to listen to his speech on the money question. He took the position that the price of silver had governed the price of American products and that since the great demonetizing act of 1873, all had been going down together until they had reached the present degrading condition. The speech was one of the most able yet delivered from his standpoint and was highly appreciated.
Cannot Pay the Minor. POTTSVILLE, Pa., Aug. 5. The refusal of the New York and Philadelphia banks to pay out any large amounts of currency has precipitated a crisis in the coal region. The Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron company is short $50,000 for the first half and $60,000 for the last half of July, without any available funds in sight to pay the same. The company has bank deposits more than sufficient to pay these amounts, but the banks refuse to give out the cash.
Calculating the Annual Report. BOSTON, Aug. 5. The annual report of the Calumet and Hecla Mining company to April 1883, issued today, shows liabilities of $3,457,851, and assets of $4,045,277. The report says: "At least $600,000 will be required for the expenses of the Red Jack shaft and for the erection of the proposed additions to the mine equipment. During the past fiscal year, the company smelted 45,000 tons of refined copper gangue, 2,247 million tons the previous year."
Health Officer Takes Extraordinary Precautions in Case of Cholera Suspects on the Vessel Iverumania. NEW YORK, Aug. 5. Health Officer Jarvis decided today to take extraordinary precautions in the case of cholera suspects on the Vessel Iverumania. He had the passengers transferred to Hoffman Island in the lower bay, and after the transfer, accompanied by his assistants, made an inspection of the island.
Dr. Jenkins, accompanied by Surgeon General Wyman and Dr. D. Kinyon, went down to the islands in the lower bay on the police boat Patrol. The Anchor Line Steamship company sent down a lot of ice, meat, vegetables, and a general supply of provisions to Swinburne Island for the detained emigrants. The first load of emigrants were all men. They stripped and washed, while their clothes were being fumigated. After they got their clothes back, they were transferred to Swinburne island, where they will be kept for five days for inspection.
It was late when Dr. Jenkins, Surgeon General Wyman, and Dr. Kinyon returned from the inspection of the islands. Dr. Wyman declined to be interviewed as to the condition in which he found the islands and the facilities for handling suspected cases and keeping cholera out of this port. Dr. Kinyon said he was under orders not to talk. Dr. Wyman returned to Washington tonight.
Dr. Todd, the ship's surgeon, is watching the passengers and crew very closely and the deputies who visit the ship every few hours gave all hands a close scrutiny. One of the sailors, who drank too much ice water, was sick. Another sailor, affected with vomiting today, and it was said this afternoon that the doctors are watching a man very closely who is ill with diarrhea, Dr. Jenkins refused to verify this, and Dr. Talmadge declined to say anything about the condition of the ship at his last visit.
National Temperance Camp Meeting. FLORENCE, N.J., Aug. 6. More than 1,000 people attended today's session of the National Temperance Camp Meeting society, Dr. R. T. Mann, M.D., was the principal speaker. He charged that more harm was done by beer drinking than by other liquors, as it caused heart diseases.
Dr. U. S. Steel, Mr. S. Mills, Miss Penny, and Edward Curtis of Canada were the speakers this afternoon. The thousand people were in the audience this evening to hear the address by George W. Hull of Kentucky.
Dying Leadville. Some Facts Regarding the World's Greatest and Most Noted Mining Camp. California Gulch's Place in History. Toil of the Pioneers, Persistent Prospectors, Cost of Developing the Great Camp. Money that Has Been Put in the Ground by Mine Owners. Millions to Be Abandoned Today. Smelters' Price to Go Out and Mines Closed Down Result of the Drop in Silver on the Industry of the Camp.
Leadville, Aug. 5. [Special to The Bee.] There is but one Leadville in the world, there has never been another and the chances are that the one which now exists will be known only in history unless a most radical change in the condition of affairs takes place within the next sixty days, for at the end of that period of time the indications now are that the famous city of silver will be wiped off the face of the earth and will not even be given a place on the maps of the state of Colorado. Two months ago this city, situated in the very heart of the Rocky mountains, contained a population of fully 20,000 persons and was known far and wide as the great silver mining center of the world.
The town is best reached by going over the Denver & Rio Grande railroad, which runs from Denver to Pueblo, where it turns and winds up into the mountains, passing through the Royal crown of the Arkansas until it climbs to the summit of the snow-clad hills, landing its passengers at the city that has been making history and silver since early in 1879, at which time the original discovery was made in California gulch, which lies just to the south and almost within a stone's throw of the richest silver mines in the world.
The location of the city is sightly in the extreme, the land sloping gently westward toward the Arkansas river, affording a natural drainage that could not be excelled for the immense watershed that constitutes its rugged background.
Institution of the City. Between the city and the Mosquito range.
To the eastward, rise four distinct (parallel) benches, each higher than its neighbor, Carbonate, Iron, Breccia and Grand mountains, the ascent being gradual from the city's elevation of 10,000 feet to the summit of Mosquito range, whose crest rises 14,000 feet above the level of the sea. Across the broad valley of the Arkansas, its summit clothed in perpetual snow, rises Mount Massive, its altitude, 14,531 feet, being 200 feet higher than the famed Pike's Peak, and not remotely connected on the south by its rugged neighbor, Mount Elbert, quite as high; to the north ward soars Homestead peak, an un-historic landmark, while to the southeast rises in graceful contour and majestic splendor that monument of God, Mount Sheridan, named in honor of an heroic and rugged character of the rebellion.
The discovery of California Gulch dates back to 1859, when a few hardy prospectors, lured to Colorado by the reported richness of placer diggings at Cherry Creek, near Denver, came once in search of gold. Their labor was abundantly rewarded, for while much that relates to the early settlement is intertwined with myth and legend, it is a well-attested fact that something in the order of $15,000,000 of glittering gold were taken from the bed of California Creek before the main body of pioneer wealth-seekers stampeded to more promising fields. A few, however, remained to work out the destinies of the gold diggings, as well as their own, impressed with the belief that the source of the precious mineral must surely be in the hills that hemmed in the gulch on three sides.
A new era of more enduring brightness for California Gulch came sixteen years later when, after all of this patient search for gold bearing rock in place, the persevering prospectors were rewarded by the discovery of that for which they had been searching - fabulous deposits of lead carbonate ore, rich in its silver contents. After such long and patient toil, the early discoverers of what has since been proven to be the richest and most extensive ore body on the continent may be pardoned for their efforts to conceal, until such time as they might patent their lands, but in this they were successful for only a short time, as the influx of the fortune hunters soon set in. By the 1st of January, 1877, the invasion of the gulch began. Reports of the marvelous discoveries continued to spread, notwithstanding the difficulties of travel over newly constructed mountain roads, so that by the close of 1878 not a fewer number than 1,500 people were clustered together in log cabins and tents among the sag brush and pine stumps on the northern rim of California Gulch. Then came the greatest stampede that the world has ever known and the rapid transformation of the mining hamlet to a city of 80,000 souls within a period of scarcely six months. The history of that brief era would fill many volumes, crowded was it with interesting events and tragic episodes.
The city was soon incorporated and began to take on all of the myriad phases of metropolitan and cosmopolitan life. After much debate, the name Leadville had been chosen for the new metropolis of the mining district, a word of ordinary sound and meaning, derived from the character of the ore which then predominated, but suggestive also of the material and industrial marvels of the age. It suggested the labor of a decade or a month, rewarded with golden fortunes; it suggested a creation of value that counted far up into the sources of mineral wealth; it suggested the fairest and the richest and the stateliest air castles changed into firm realities of solid foundation; it suggested the wild rush, the feverish struggle, the eager grasping after wealth; it suggested a pouring, crowding, rushing together, and it suggested in one view a tumultuous, picturesque life, soon followed as by a fair, elegant, proportionate civilization.
With characteristic enterprise, and disregard of all recorded precedent, Leadville waited not for the advent of the railroad, but at once supplied itself with many of the comforts and conveniences of civil life, and, long before the whistling of the locomotives made the echoes of the surrounding hills, the city was supplied with a telegraph line, connecting with the outside world; with a water and with gas and with electric lights; with sewers and graded streets and with an adequate fire and police protection. Before the close of 1880 the Denver & Rio Grande railroad had pushed its way into the city, defying all obstacles which nature had placed in the way, and connecting Leadville with the railway system of the states.
Looking down upon Leadville a few months ago one would have seen a wonderful city, with its thousands of inhabitants; with its score of smelters and furnaces; with its army of diggers in the mines; with its hand-to-mouth business houses; with its banks and places of exchange; with its clubs and historical societies; with its churches and schools; with its opera houses and theaters and with its long rows of costly residences. It was the largest and fairest representation of business, civilized and Christian life above the clouds that has ever surprised the world.
This is no longer so. Now all things have changed, and a few months ago where the hum of industry was heard on every hand all is now as still and quiet as the grave. The mines have closed and the miles upon miles of shafts, drifts, levels and tunnels are filling with water and are deserted, being inhabited only by the bats and lizards. The magnificent business houses have closed their doors, their owners have boarded up the windows and have left for the states to chase another goddess of fortune one who does not cover her trail with silver to lure her victims on in the wild race for wealth.
Regarding the mining industries of the Leadville district, which properly includes the county of Lake, there are 11,419 locations, of which number 3,803 have been patented and 100 mines producing silver and the accompanying minerals in greater or less quantities.
The following table shows the product of the silver mines in the district from 1870 to 1882, inclusive:
The average annual prices to the United States are based on New York quotations. The smelters hear pay 5% per cent of the New York quotations, and 4% per cent thereof should be deducted from the above money value, which would leave $101,015,841 as the total amount realized for the silver produced in this district.
Exact Cost of Production.
It is a difficult matter to figure out the exact cost of producing silver, as the cost in no two mines will be the same, but from the best available information the following is nearly as accurate as it is possible to get:
At a depth of 2,000 feet for sinking shafts and making excavations.
Survey for transcription: $10.00
Fee for application: $150.00
Fee for patent survey: $75.00
Fee for filing: $10.00
Fee for publishing notice: $111.00
Fee for drilling: $25.00
Fee for land, average eight acres: $40.00
Total: $301.30
Of the 19,449 locations made in this county, at least 26% are valid and subsisting locations at the present time and have consequently performed the annual assessment of at least $100 per year for an average of at least ten years, making a total expenditure of $4,800,000.
Expenditures on locations: $217,513.00
Expenditures on timber patented: $7,720.00
Expenditures for outcrops: $4,800,000.00
Total: $7,700,113.00
It is impossible to arrive at any satisfactory or accurate estimate of the expenditures for the development of work, or prospecting. Thousands of dollars have been spent in this district in prospecting, but an attempt at an estimate of the cost would be simply the wildest kind of guess, but upon consulting mine owners, however, it may be assumed that the cost of this very essential branch of mining is included in the item, "wages paid, etc.," and hereafter given.
The cost of mining in this county, including smelting operations, can be given with great accuracy, for the reason that from year to year the mining exchange has compiled and published tables, based upon data obtained at the time, and from original sources.
Given in detail and are as follows:
Paid out for labor in nitric and silver-crushing for 14 years: $7,700,000
Lumber and timber: $7,003,000
Coal: $7,000,000
Charcoal: $1,000,000
Hardware and mining supplies: $1,000,000
Mining and smelting work: $8,750,000
Totalling $26,771,000
Thus it is ascertained that the following amounts represent the actual cost of discovery, location, patenting, operating, mining, and smelting the ores of this district, to-wit:
Expenditures on locations: $217,513.00
The expenditures for development have been very heavy, and can properly be charged against the products of the mines.
In June, when silver started on the downgrade, it is safe to estimate that in this district alone there were 100,000 men who were in one way or another connected with the working of the mines, and at that time this city was the headquarters of the vast army, as all of the ore came to the smelters and this was the base of supplies. At that time the merchants, especially the wholesalers, were buying in the markets of New York, Chicago, and Omaha by the car load, but now they are buying by the ton and many of them have cancelled their orders altogether as they see nothing in sight for the future without failure and all can be considered their guiding star. Of the men who were employed when the slump in silver started, it is safe to say that today there are not more than 50,000 in the entire district.
Six smelters which were in operation both night and day, prior to June, have shut down and allowed their brood to go out, while the others are simply running for the purpose of working up the ores from the dumps, after which they will close. All of the mines, with few exceptions, have allowed the shafts to fill with water, the outlook at this time being such that the owners do not feel justified in expending the necessary money to do the pumping.
With reference to the situation and the condition of the miners, it is such that I cannot be portrayed by the most graphic description. For those who have recovered good wages, and giving little thought of the coming of tomorrow, they have as a rule spent their money almost as fast as it has been earned, though there have been some exceptions to the rule, as the bank of this city will show. During the month of June there were fewer deposits than usual.
BOTH ARE TIRED OF IT
Germany and Russia Have Had About Enough of the Tariff War.
CONCESSIONS ARE MADE ON BOTH SIDES
St. Petersburg Papers Attack the Policy of the Government.
AUSTRALIAN-GERMAN TREATY OF COMMERCE
German Officials Not at All Disturbed Over the Probable Consummation.

Socialists Who Meet at Zurich Today Face Unfolding Now.
BERLIN, Aug. 5. Though the Russian-German tariff has only been in active operation for five days, there already are signs of abatement of hostilities on both sides. Several St. Petersburg papers, inspired by the Russian foreign office, attack the policy of aggression upon German commerce, as initiated by Milyukov, the Russian finance minister, without the full sanction of the imperial council, though within the knowledge of certain of the czar's advisors. Minister Witte is charged with underestimating Germany's strength in forcing the custom war, while open report is expressed that it was overbegun.
The Moscow Gazette goes further and declares that the action of the Russian government was taken simply in self-defense.
Germany, argues the Gazette, began the attack by introducing a differential tariff and Russia, after long suffering and delay, replied with defense of her own interests by merely imposing the maximum tariff upon German imports?
The Gazette here overlooks the fact that dues on German ships entering Russian ports are raised to such an enormous figure as to be almost equivalent to a blockade.
The tone of the official article, however, breathes peace. They conclude by asserting that Russia does not wish to increase the complications that exist, but aims now, as formerly, at a harmonious settlement of international questions.
Another indication that the customs war will soon terminate, is the fact that a mutual agreement has been entered into not to engage in a grain freight war, which was dreaded by commercial men as being certain to exasperate everyone concerned in internal trade. Some Russian government organs attempt to excuse the situation and the German press follows the same course. The general opinion of the business world, here is steady resolution not to give in until Russian shows a willingness to reduce her tariff, will be the speediest road to an agreement.
The North German Gazette, commenting upon Russia's abrupt change of front from negotiating a treaty to hostile action, a dangerous policy for Russian interests, publishes tables showing the former and existing Russian duties and comparing them with the German tariff on Russian goods. The figures prove that the German tariff amounts on an average to only 11 percent of the value of the goods and, in some few instances, to 50, whereas the Russian duties before the war began averaged 100 percent, and were now raised to an impracticable height. This comparison finally settles the Russian assertion that Germany initiated the conflict by raising her tariff and compelling Russia to raise hers.
Reports currently indicate that negotiations for an Austro-Russian treaty of commerce are actively progressing towards an agreement, doing not at all disturb official circles here. Austria has a right to arrange whatever commercial relations she chooses. The trade between Russia and Austria-Hungary is the merest nothing when compared with the international trade between Russia and Germany. The triple alliance treaties do not touch upon commercial questions. Germany can do without Russian grain and the sum of official opinion is that the Russian-Austrian treaty, if it is over concluded, will not impair the settlement of the Russo-German tariff troubles in a manner satisfactory to Germany. It is to be hoped that when the Reichstag reassembles, the government will be able to announce that Russia has recovered her senses.
Rumors are currently circulating that Russia is trying to raise from Paris bankers a loan of 15,000,000 roubles at a normal rate. The socialist congress, which opens at Zurich tomorrow, will be largely composed of German and Austrian delegates. Practically, it is a meeting of members of the extreme wing of the socialists. The program of the congress includes an international agreement for eight hours a day, an international agreement for the celebration of the 1st of May as Labor Day, concerted political association on the part of socialists in the event of a European war, international trade organizations, etc.
The duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, it is officially announced, is recovering from his apopleptic stroke of Tuesday but a private report says that his left side is practically paralyzed and his condition is critical.

Armed in the Finn.
The Russian Grashdanin asserts that the government has decided to refuse to the Finnish people permission to subscribe for the construction of a Finnish-Norwegian railway, as the foreign office at St. Petersburg expects a revolution in Norway and the declaration of a republic. The radicals, says the Grashdanin, are purchasing and importing arms largely, and are preparing for an insurrection.
DUITKIN RECOGNTIZED.
Rumored for her heroism in the Himalayas, by H. (Grateful homage) Paris, Aug. 6. It is stated that the march of Dufferin has been decorated with the Order of the Garter made vacant by the death of the earl of Derby, in recognition of the skillful and successful intervention in which he conducted the delicate negotiations with France on the Siamese question.
France is now in the midst of an election campaign and the Siamese question has drifted into the background. The government has canceled all war-like preparations.
THE DAILY BULLETIN,
Yesterday, during the opening session of the Republican Convention, Morton of Michigan was nominated by acclamation for the presidency, and by unanimous vote the following were chosen for the vice-presidency: John W. Anderson of Illinois, John H. Reagan of Texas, and John A. Logan of Illinois.
The convention also adopted a platform, the principal features of which are the restoration of specie payments, reform of the tariff, the reduction of internal taxes, the enactment of an inheritance tax, and the maintenance of neutrality by all means.
The convention also expressed its approval of the Alaska purchase and its opposition to further acquisitions of territory, especially from European powers.
The third day of the convention will be devoted to the selection of a candidate for the Senate.
Nehring's influence in the German Reichstag has been significantly reduced following the publication of his military reforms, which were seen as a threat to national security. The Social Democratic Party, which had previously supported Nehring, has now withdrawn its support, and the Conservative Party has also shown no interest in his proposals.
In Copenhagen, the opposition in the Folketing to the government's plans for a new railway to connect the island of Zealand with the mainland has grown, with the Radical and Liberal parties both announcing their opposition to the project.
In London, the prime minister, Lord Salisbury, has announced that a bill will be introduced into the House of Commons this week to give effect to the agreement reached with the United States regarding the Alaska boundary dispute.
The financial situation in Berlin remains stable, with no significant movements in the stock market. However, there is some concern about the deficit in the German budget, which is expected to reach 400 million marks this year, largely due to the costs of the recent wars in Asia and Africa.
In Paris, the opposition in the Senate to the government's plans for naval expansion has been significant, with several senators calling for a reduction in the navy's budget. The government has responded by stating that the navy is essential for national defense and that the budget must be adequate to support it.
In St. Petersburg, rumors are circulating that the Russian government is planning to raise a loan from foreign banks to finance its military endeavors in Central Asia and the Caucasus. This news has caused a slight increase in the value of Russian bonds.
In Vienna, the stock exchange has been steady, with no significant movements in the prices of shares. However, there is some concern among investors about the impact of the ongoing financial crisis in Argentina on Austrian banks, which have significant holdings in Argentine bonds.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 5. The investigation by the assignees into the condition of the Kansas City Safe Deposit and Savings bank has developed the fact that James D. Strahan, for many years discount clerk of the institution, was short in his accounts by $10,000. The shortage was discovered last March and Strahan was discharged. The officers of the bank did not prosecute him because they were afraid a run on the bank would follow if the shortage was made public.
A slight of war took place at the office of the Ainsworth-Rush Brown Company last evening at 8 o'clock. Walker and Julius Burster, two employees, indulged in a friendly wrestle. Walker threw Burster, and in the fall Burster's right leg was fractured in two places. Dr. Hebert was summoned and the injured man was removed to his home.

WAS TOO INTIMATE WITH MINISTER EGAN
Minister Errazuriz resigned from the Chilean Cabinet. The resignation was inevitable. It was brought about by a strong expression of public opinion, on account of his relations with ex-United States Minister Patrick Egan. La Prensa, the newspaper published in Santiago, and which is owned by Errazuriz, has been openly supporting the mine syndicate organized by Egan and Mocenni.
TROUBLE IN HONDURAS
Panama, Colombia via Galveston, Tex., Aug. 4. [By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald Special to THE BUR.] Advices received by mail from Tegucigalpa, Honduras, contain the news that Pollcarpo Bonilla's followers declined to accept the proposal of President Leiva, that a combination be made to put ex-President Bográn in the field as a candidate against General Vasquez, who seized control when Bonilla organized his revolt several months ago.
When Vasquez heard of these negotiations, he ordered the arrest of Leiva and under threats of shooting him, forced him to sign a formal letter renouncing his claim to be the constitutional president, the announcement of which was cabled to the Herald last night. The congress of Honduras has been called by Vasquez to meet in Tegucigalpa and approve the resignation of Leiva. It will then be asserted to continue Vasquez's title to the remainder of Leiva's unexpired term. Bográn is being shadowed by detectives acting under the orders of Vasquez.
The superintendent of the American Mining company has been arrested on charges of having furnished the money to pay the expenses of Bonilla's remnants. He is also accused of having engaged in the later plot in favor of Bográn.
Diario de Honduras, the government newspaper, claims that a band of Bonilla's followers shot a woman named Jesusa Sanchez because she refused to disclose the whereabouts of her husband or the latest news he received from Tegucigalpa.
It is reported that Bonilla collected the men who marched with him to aid in the revolution against Cavilla in Nicaragua from the southern provinces of Honduras. It is believed that the successful Nicaraguan liberals will now aid Bonilla to overthrow Vasquez.

not ilearly so stiff us the Calluna , which
stood up llko a house , whllo every llttlo puff

n round numbers the sum of' $1,000,000 were
Irawn from the banks , ana all by tha minors.
While these men with money left the coun
try , tbcro are today many hundreds who
: iavo not a cent in the world und must bo-

Very Liberal Mlnori ! .
Right in this connection it is 'due to the
miners to say that they are not beggars.
They arc not men who prize a dollar very
highly and will divide their last loaf with
any person who is In need. While they may
bo upon the venroof starvation , they will
; iot visit the back door arid , importune the
loiiso wife for a cold lunch'vajid a hind out.
Such being "tbo case , it is a" matter ofjus'tlcp
to state that in the relief camp at Denver ,
whllo the occup.ints nre'brandod ' as miners ,
but few , li any ot thorn , belong to the vast
army.of men who have spent years.in dig-
Ring the . precious ores from the bowels of
the mountains.
As the revenues of this city nro indirectly
derived from the income of the mon who
work in the mines , the outlook for the fu
ture Is very dark , for with tlio mills nnd
mines closed no taxes can bo levjod and col
lected , which means that the municipal and
county governments must bo , abandoned ;
that the schools and academic's'must , close
ami that Iho churches must do' < away with
their preachers , who for -years huvi
bcon expounding the word of God to theii
llttlo fiocks. Not only docs the prescn
condition of affairs mean all of this , but 1
means moro. It moans that' unless th

population must move away and.leaveAvha

taken yours to accumulate. But Jus't hiov

AGAINST THE SHERMAN ACT
Illinois' Junior Senator Annouhtbs His

SENATOR PALMER IN FAVOR OF REPEAL

TnrllT "Hunk" Kllgofo Again
on.llnek.
WASHINGTON. Aup. fi. Senator John
M. Pulmor of Illinois has arrived huro
from Springfield. The senator talked
freely concerning local and national pol
itics. "Tho first thing to bo done , of
course , " ho said , "is to repeal the pur
chasing clause of the Shormnn act. I
am for the repeal without any condition
attached. After wo got repeal there
iv111 bo time to talk of something to tuko
the plnco of the Shormnn not. I have
mndo It a principle of my llfo never to
swim a river till I got to it. The dis-
ouHslon of substitutes for the Sherman
act can only complicate the question ,
and wo want to got rid of the main ovlls
before getting into any complications.
Ono thing is sure , I do not bollovo in a
return to state banks as n moans uf in-
roasting circulation. It is suggested that
FO allow national banks to Tssuo notes
p to the full amount of their bonds. In
oct , every man who comes to Washing-
on will have a financial Bchomo to pro-
out , and I huvo concluded to wait and
ook at the schemes iuatcad of ndvo-
iiting ono. "
The senator was asked if ho antlcl-
lated a speedy revision ot the tarilT.
"I afraid"said ho "tho
am , , country
rill bo disappointed in not seeing much
peed in anything. It is not generally
iipurcclatod that the nilvor'states liuvo
Ixtoen votes in the senate. This , is n
romondous power in delaying action on
ho financial , tariff Or any other meas
ures. The great states of Now York ,
llinois , Indiana und Pennsylvania , with
in aggregate population of nearly
20,000,000 , have not as much voice in
ho United States senate as those littlu
ilvor states with an aggregate popula-
ion of about 2,000,000. This Hhould not
bo forgotten by the people who expect
Miat congress is going to do something
ight off. In duo time I expect to'see a
uroful revision of the tariff and the
iiuuiciul distress of the country will
irobably complicate , and delay.- the
ivork. "
Congressman "Buck" Kilgoro reached
, own last night , and at once began buck-
ng with liis customary oiiergyr. Ho is
, ho champion illtbustoror of thd'houbo ,
and ho says with frankness that lie ex
pects to topoll his record asnlllibustoror
by lighting to tho'last ditch against the
repeal of the silver purohaso'olauso of
ho Sherman law. Kilgoro comes from
Texas , where ho has a free silver con-
tituency. Ho said today with much
Texas bluster that ho did nofcarpyhat
loveland wanted. " Uis constituents
ivanted free silver or the present Sher
man law retained. Ho proposed , how-
jvor , to exhaust every device of parlia
mentary obstruction before permitting
the repeal to pass. Ho was confidant
that the democratic house could not
adopt a cloture rule , us they had so long
denounced "gag-rule. " And without
cloture Kilgoro smilingly asserted that
" 10 would bo able , with the assistance of
a few other filibustering silver men , to
the country a very interesting
spectacle of delayed legislation.

they are unwilling to commit them

they will pursue with regard to silver
egislation until they shall have read the
resident's message. 2. That it is'in
evitable that tarilT as well as financial
egislation must bo considered. 3. That
there is little doubt that the extra ses

( iooil rrospoctH for u Strike.
EVANSVILI.K , Ind. , Aug. fl. Thpro is
pretty good chancp for all the train
men of the Evunsvillo k Terre Haute
road to go out on a big strike. Trouble
has econ brewing for some time .since
President Grammar expressed his inten
tion to order a general reduction of
wages. The cut has never bcon enforced ,
as the movement mot with unanimous
disfavorwhen the matter was flrst men
tioned. The .officials of the road mot
witli the men ono night this week and
came very near convincing thorn that
the cut was absolutely necessary. The
road had bcon paying fair wages to its
employes , but * since the . Jlnanuial
stringency and the reduction in rates it
is argued that wages will 'have to bo cut
to make things oven up.
It was learned last night that a com
mittee of railroad men had boon Hint to
Evansville from Terre Haute to consult
with the local employes. 1 AVliatcvor
passes between the c mmittco and the
local committee will not bo known nn-
loss a strike is declared. No dcjlnlto
action is likely to bo taken in the matter -
tor , should tilings develop unfavorably
for th'o men , until Sunday , when Mcssi-h.
Eugene Dobbs and Eugene Howard
with other railroad leaders will bo huro
to address the workingmon.

CHICAGO , Aug. C. An Oscoola , la. ,
man writes to the Inter Ocean a plan to
solve the vexed question of bimetallism
as follows : "My plan would be a coin
consisting of pilro gold wortli fiO cnnts ,
188 grains of pure silver worth f > 0 cents ,
which , amalgamated , would make a dollar
lar of 200 grains. This Hhould bo the
standard dollar or unit of value and a
full legal toncior , which would bo nearly
the si/o of oup prusont half dollar. Free
coinage should bo authorized in this
proposition , nearly 10 to 1 , which would
establish bimetallism in fact and not in
name only. Our present output of $ , ' ) ! { , - "
000,000 of gold pop year would thus absorb -
serb an onuul amount of silver , and there
is no reason why such coins should not
pass around the world , Doubled , a 82
coin would still not bo as big us the
present silver dollar , which could o re
tired. This would beat the Sherman
experiments and could easily bo made to
dilTor in appearance from the present
coins. "

Dur.vea. whose health w.is somewhat Im
paired for lack of needed ret. foil compelled
to retire. Circumstances led. him to accept
n call to ono of the leading and wealthy Con
gregational churches in Boston , under , a
promise that his pastoral duties would bo
light. This deprived the people of this , city
of much Instructive nroachlng and lecturlnif
nt the hands of ono who \\us to thorn a veritable -
table schoolmaster. When worn out by
domestic nnilction in Boston Dr. Duryoa was
ready to abandon scenes and associations
which had all been pleasant to him , and so
when Omr.hu stretched out its hands to him
with an ouruest uial unanimous call to
como over and help thorn , ho no-
coptuil , and has now for n number
of years boon rendering valuable sory-
Ice indoors und outdoors in that .Nebraska
Hold. _ At the close of the Sunday services
during hH temporary stay In tins neighbor
hood ho bus boon the recipient of ovations.
The congregations , despite the intense boat
of the weather , have boon largo and atten
tive. The sermons have been eloquent , ear
nest , sympathetic and full ot educative
power. Old parishioners from Now York
have bcon to hear him and to speak with
him , and it has been an Interesting spectacle
for an observer to witness the irleiully
Hashes , the quick Identifications , the splendid -
did memory of faces evinced by tha pre.ich-
or. Young people become mature have boon
most readily recognized by the pnitor of
their youth. Then there Is an exchange of
remembrances of events in which all were
mutually interested 10115 ago. There has
bcon the kindly , fervent words'of consolation
in eases where bereavement had douo Ita
work. Old men who have grown older have
also Hocked around their former pastor to
test nlm , but the names are on his lips
the instant hands are cl.ispcd. Mothers
have introduced their sons and daughters ,
whom Dr. Duryoa baptUod , und these young
pcoplo nave shared with their parent s the
happy reunion with the pastor of their in-
fancy. Dr. Duryoa never manifests hurry.
Ho seems to enjoy the friciu's ' who hnvo the
longest stories to tell him , and ho listens to
reminiscences with n gusto which shows
that bo enjoys it. Ills present visit has
beou a source of great joy to hundreds who
have grasped his hand and poured their ex
periences of years into his willing oars ,
while it has enhanced to him the memories
of tlioso whom ho has scon us well as of
those who have taken their departure since
18TU , when ho loft the city.
Recently Dr. Dur.vea has boon taxing his
powers by out door preaching , and us n
result his voice is strained , and bo has
been ordered , after the services of
today , to close his mouth for nome tlmo
to como , and to remain perfectly quiet , und
subsequently to bo moro moderate in the ox-
pen Jituro of bis spoalcing powers. The con
tact of Dr. IJuryoa with his old frlstids has
been : i very refreshing spectacle to these
who have scon it , without having previously
known him. With tha exception of bolng a
llttk gray , the doctor appears but llttlo
changed from the times when his face and
form were familiar in our streets. The im
pression nmdo by this visit and by his 'pulpit
ministrations during the last three Sundays
of July Is a wholesome ono , andJms given
birth to a longing for n Brooklyn reunion of
a moro permanent and lasting character.

DBS MOINKS , Aug. fl. Governor
Boies' letter declining in udvanco tno
nomination for a third tonn , continuing
his recent interview , has caused consid
erable excitement und activity in demo
cratic circles. The party bosses who
had determined to nominate him despite
his positive verbal declination ave now
compelled to reconstruct their slate ,
and there are indications of a very
lively scramble for the leadership.
Judge Allison of Sioux City appears to
have the largest following , especially in
the northwest. The Mississippi river
counties are likely to come in solidly for
John C. Bills of IXivunport , who hud
boon slated , for second place on thn
ticket with Holes. Mr. UlHs is a strong
man and a linn democrat , but ho would
bo handicapped by his record in Iho
Htato senate , where ho championed u hill
for the taxation of church property.
Llnutonnnt Governor Uostow lias many
friends among the rank and Illo , but the
loaders will not accept him. Oolonol
Charles A. Clark of Cedar Kupids can
have a largo support in the convention
if ho Is willing to outer the race , and
probably ho would make the strongest
c-andidato that could bo named. Having
boon a prominent railroad attorney ( or
years , he Itt especially well qualified to
load the party which lias so long plumed
itself as the champion of unti-moiiopolv.
W. W. Witmor of Dos Moines is being
strongly urged by the local democrats ,
and ho would make a very strong can
vass 'f nominated. The situation grows

THEY MISUSED MR. LAWLER
Christian Ball Tossers Merrily Swat Tom
Borninghara's 'Quango Pitcher.
HIS OWN TEAM WAS BACK ON HIM
Following the Conventions IVa * Something
Remarkably Awful Hitting of One-
plenty Almighty's In a Concert with
Error * Wins the game,
the Christian hosts jumped onto the
Brummett's yesterday afternoon with both
feet and they never let up until they had
driven them way up into Egypt somewhere
near the source.
It was the third game for the city championship and makes the second bunch of
curls Captain Abbott has dangling from his
bolt.
And of course he is correspondingly happy.
The secret of the whole affair was the
utter inability of the brawny North Kandahar
U ) connect with Hector Connor's Woeping
Water slants, that is at the right time,
while on the other hand, the boys of the Anglo swatted Lawler hard and opportunely.
They took the lead in the second inning
and were never boarded.
"Just again, Artio" yelled a bleacher to
Captain Creighton, as Stonoy tapped Lawler
'
on the wishbone in the ninth inning and
ended the fray.
"Yes," responded Artio, "but you know
that old gap about the blackest cloud having a German silver lining, don't you? Well,
wait till next Saturday."
But this is the way it happened:
Opened like a hull in a corn.
The first ball pitched Paddy Dolan pushed
out to McKelvoy and was sidetracked at
first. Lawler made a single, went to second
on a wild pitch, and slaved there, for McKelvoy threw Artio out to the Cherub, and Old
Jack Carrigan caught the ethereal black and blue,
Then the Christians Stonoy sent a bashful
little grounder down to Robinson, and Robinson seized it by the slack of the pan and
threw it a rod or two over Roman's head.
When a messengers boy brought the ball
back Stonoy was on third.
Still it was hardly time for any haltolu
Jabs, for "the next three men, Tufillold,
Abbott and McKelvey, were retired in speedy
succession.
The second was another blank for the
Conventions, but a windfall for the Young
Men's Christian associations.
Hector Connor smashed the sphere for
two sacks, and after Angel had reached first
on balls, that little Wilkinson boy hit her for
a couple himself.
Then everybody shouted, for on this grand
swat both the Weeping Water representative
and the Cherub came home.
A moment later Mr. Wilkinson joined them
as Mike Kelley Robinson made another at
tempt to throw the ball out of the lot.
But It Availed 'Em Nothing.
From this on to the close Captain Artio
and his sturdy Drums were on the defensive.
They fought inch by inch for the ground
the furious and repeated onslaughts of the
indomitable Christians compelled them to
give up, but they made but feeble attempts to
regain the ground lost. That is until the
last inning, when they made a brief but
ferocious rally, and in a measure choked the
onrush of the hosts.
Up to this juncture the score stood 9 to
in favor of Captain Abbott's band, and it
looked as if it was all over but the shouting.But
But right here Lawler missed Kelley Robinson's third frantic stab, and Mike saved his
bacon by a speedy run to first. He stole second
and, but immediately developed symptoms of
paresis, for a moment later the Hector
caught him napping.
Then Roman happened along with a two
cushion punch, Kennedy with a single, Davis
with another, and so did Miller and Dolan
too, and the result was three runs for the
Drums, and an awful scare for wayfarers,
in the narrow path,
And that was all.

Race for yachts above forty rating took place today under the auspices of the Royal Southport Yacht club. The course covered a distance of forty-two miles. The Calluna and the Navahoe were the only starters. The Navahoe at once took command. Then commenced a stern chase which lasted all day. For most of the time the Calluna appeared to hold her own fairly well, but as soon as the vessels came on a wind the Navahoe began to draw away perceptibly. The latter, however, was not nearly so stiff as the Calluna, which stood up like a house, while every little puff laid the Navahoe over on her rail. The time when each rounded the mark boat of Lymington was as follows: Navahoe, 4:50:35; Calluna, 4:53:18. It was now a free race toward the Warner lightship.
With sheets eased well off, the two yachts made rapid headway under heavier canvas. Everybody admired the way the Navaho was handled; throughout the race her sails stood like boards and never had a quiver in them. The time on rounding the Warner lightship was: Navaho, 12:05:00; Calluna, 13:40:00. It was now a dead beat to Nottley. Both made two or three tacks under the shore, with a freshening breeze, working westward very fast. At every board they made, however, the Navaho gained rapidly and lengthened out. By the time the flag boat was reached, the Navaho had greatly increased her lead. The time at the finish was: Navaho, 4:53:12; Calluna, 4:57:06. The Navaho had two minutes and forty-two seconds to take, so she had plenty of time to give away.
SAILOR KILL IN LEVANT.
"Sailor Kill" Taylor of Denver Died from the Effects of a Prize Fight at the Rambler's Cycling Club.
DENVER, Aug. 4. As the result of a brutal prize fight at the rooms of the Ramblers' Cycling club last night, Bobby Taylor, the "Sailor Kid" died, this afternoon. The fight lasted twenty-two rounds, at the end of which it was declared a draw. The "Sailor Kid's" opponent was, a negro whom Taylor had defeated in a previous fight. The men fought at 145 pounds and when the fight was over both were badly used up and disfigured, although six-ounce gloves were used.
When Taylor began dressing after the fight, he suddenly fainted and remained unconscious all night and today until he died. Bat Masterson, who refereed the fight and Dick Carbury, the manager, together with the negro, Robinson, are under arrest. Masterson claims that Taylor's death was caused by falling and striking his head on a chair, just after the fight.
The "Sailor Kid" was matched to fight a Chicago featherweight on the night of the Greggains-Crudden fight before the Columbia Athletic club on August 8. Taylor was also known as Joe Turner.
Nineteen Rounds.
Joe Scanlan and John Counsky fought nineteen rounds with bare knuckles for a purse of $60 near South Omaha last night. They fought in a sixteen-foot ring in the presence of 300 men of sporting proclivities. The affair was declared a draw. The police were kept in dense ignorance of the event.
HIGH MILLION a Failure.
NEW YORK, Aug. 6.—E.F. Pratt, the representative of the Chicago navy who sailed for Europe on June 20 for the purpose of scouring Europe for the Great International regatta, returned on the Germanic. He was unable to secure entries of either crowds or individuals for the Chicago navy regatta, owing to the fact that business interests or ignorance of crowds' members would prevent attendance at the dates specified for their attendance.

OF DENSE
[CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.]
in round numbers the sum of $1,000,000 were drawn from the banks, and all by the minors. While these men with money left the country, there are today many hundreds who have not a cent in the world and must become objects of charity before the beginning of winter. Even at this time they are living on dry bread and the berries which they gather in the valleys along the rivers and small streams.
Very Liberal Miners.
Right in this connection it is due to the miners to say that they are not beggars. They are not men who prize a dollar very highly and will divide their last loaf with any person who is in need. While they may be upon the verge of starvation, they will not visit the back door and importune the housewife for a cold lunch, but rather a hand out. Such being the case, it is a matter of justice to state that in the relief camp at Denver, while the occupants are branded as miners, but few, if any of them, belong to the vast army of men who have spent years in digging the precious ores from the bowels of the mountains.
As the revenues of this city are indirectly derived from the income of the men who work in the mines, the outlook for the future is very dark, for with the mills and mines closed no taxes can be levied and collected, which means that the municipal and county governments must be abandoned; that the schools and academies must close and that the churches must do away with their preachers, who for years have been expounding the word of God to their little flocks. Not only does the present condition of affairs mean all of this, but it means more. It means that unless the mines open within a short time the entire population must move away and leave what will be the ruins of fortunes that it has taken years to accumulate. But just how to go is another that is being debated. Some of the people have relatives or friends in the east who will hold them in their troubles; but the greater portion of them are not so fortunate and nothing is left them but to begin life anew, starting at the bottom of the ladder and gradually working up to the top again.
W.D. PENNIVAL.
Indianapolis, Aug. 4. The payment of pensions began in this city at 8 o'clock this morning by checks issued on the subtreasury at New York. In order to expedite matters, four of the leading local banks agreed to furnish currency to the amount represented by the checks presented in person. This act was made necessary by the suspension of the Indianapolis National Bank some time ago, which was a United States depository. The checks are being taken up without expense to the pensioners.
The crowd presenting certificates this morning was greater than ever before on the first day of payment of pensions. Quite a number, appearing at the office, learned that the payment of their pensions had been suspended, and, taken as a whole, the long line was an uneasy one.
Most elaborate storefront display shown tonight, Courtland beach. It was not...
WASHINGTON, D.C., Aug. 4. Surgeon General Wyman of the Marine hospital service has received a report from Dr. Jenkins regarding the supposed cholera on the steamer Karamania. When the steamer left Naples, all on board were well. The second day out one passenger, Buccolo, died from congestion of the lungs and diarrhea. Just before reaching port an Italian, aged 40, was taken suddenly ill with a pain in the right side and diarrhea. Later on he became rapidly worse, vomiting, and had cramps in his legs and arms. He died on August 2. On the 1st an Italian woman began to have diarrhea and sank very rapidly, dying on the 3rd. All were buried at sea. The passengers will be detained five days.

AFFAIRS IN SUNDAY PAPERS - OMAHA
Pathetic Poverty of Parent Who Carried a Little Girl's Coffin.
JUDGE FOWLER'S SATURDAY VISITORS
Mrs. Rochesney's adventure with the truth - Chilton's song "Coming Into Chicago" recounts the adventures of a child's coffin.
Opening fifty Goodby.
The first number on the program in Judge Fowler's aggregation of comedians and tragedians yesterday consisted of a sentiment by three young waits from Denver and Salt Lake City. They gave the names of Benny Napier, Holden O'Connor, and Robert Brown. Their song was to the effect that they were bringing their way to Joliet, Ill., where they had friends. They were enough to keep them going by singing songs and doing aerobics turns in saloons and on the streets.
There was no charge against them and the judge allowed them to proceed on their journey.
G. M. Forguson, the switchman who was in Friday for associating too familiarly with Mrs. Rochesney, was this time charged with drunkenness. He acknowledged the effect of the corn juice and paid $7.50 for his tear.
John Long, a section hand from Gilmoro, was so paralyzed he did not know how or when he got here, but concluded that he must have been slightly intoxicated. He hardly knew whether his name was Burke or Long. It was one or the other.
W. Hopkins and W. Mills were run in on suspicion. Among their paraphernalia was a lot of stuff that looked like it might be safe workers. They claimed to be chair repairers and were allowed to get out of town providing they did so in double quick order.
M. Cavanaugh, a butcher, drifted in from Kansas City, and not being able to get work, got drunk. His bill was $4.50.
Looking Into Public Matter.
Two different committees, representing a meeting of taxpayers, have been at work for some time checking up the business transactions of the city council and the Board of Education during the last three or more years.
The committee selected to report on the action of the city council is E.J. Johnson and John J. Haynes. They have their report ready. It is a lengthy one, covering forty pages of legal cap paper. This report is to be read in public sometime during the latter part of next week. John Dee, John McMillan, and Dave Anderson are the committee controlling the report. It is said the report contains some spicy reading, although it is not hinted that the city dads have done anything that will complicate them seriously.
The school board is being looked into by J.J. Breau and Frank Persons. Haynes Bros., expert accountants, have been looking over these books for the benefit of the board as well as the committee, and will be ready to report soon. They found the city treasurer's books correct for a nickel, but some shiftless figuring has been done by the different secretaries of the board. While nothing crooked is developed, the reckless manner of keeping the books shows how easily it would have been to defraud the city if anyone had been inclined to do so.
All these reports will be made public in a few days and it is quite likely that a new process of bookkeeping will be inaugurated by the school board and perhaps the city council will see its way clear to follow a new line of procedure in settling the different impositions that come before it.
Street Scene.
The old man mopped the perspiration from his wrinkled brow and uttered a slight moan as he carefully took from his shoulder a small white coffin and set it on the sidewalk at the corner of Twenty-fourth and M streets. Jellerson soon placed the coffin on the sidewalk. Then an independent and tired young miss of about three summers planted herself on the coffin, knelt on her knees, and her fingers in her mouth. A few feet away stood an aged lady and another girl a few years younger than the one on the casket.
Officer Thomas stood watching the party and was interested to know what was in the coffin. He approached the old gentleman and made inquiry.
'We are all right, Mr. Officer. I can't afford to hire a team to carry us; that's all. The baby died and we are just going home to bury it. There is no harm in that, I hope.' Being assured that poverty was no crime in the eye of a South Omaha cop, and especially right now, the little family of mournful people moved on toward their little home in the vicinity of Twenty-second and H streets, and the big-hearted policeman went on thinking what a fine thing it was to have a pay day once a month, even if a man did have to do police duty for $600 a month.
An hour later the same little party was soon following the father, who bore in his arms the same white coffin and the baby corpse. This time they were on their way to the burying ground.
Prophecy of all Albright Motor.
'There will be an electric motor line running between South Omaha and Albright before the snow flies again,' said a man Friday morning who does very little talking through his Stetson.
The company that is operating this line now is not making a 'fortune', as everyone knows who watches the travel. It costs about $300 a month to keep the horse cars going and after the wires are stretched and the poles placed it is said it will not cost much more to put on and operate the electric cars than it does at present. In addition to the convenience in speed and comfort of the motor cars over the mule trains we now have, it is believed that the travel will more than double. It is safe to say that Mr. Markoll is touring with the Omaha Street Railway company to supply his line with electricity, and it is not at all unlikely that they will come to an agreement on terms.
Mr. Rochford, General Manager of the Omaha Street Railway company, appeared in court yesterday. Mrs. Thomas Rochford, the wife of the switchman who told the story of her connection with Ferguson, called on Police Judge Fowler and made a strong denial of the accusation that there was anything wrong with her character as far as virtue was concerned. On the other hand, Mrs. Rochford tells a tale of abuse about her husband. She says he beats her and abuses her when drunk, and on different occasions has come home and smashed up pieces of furniture in the house. That she has dragged him out of saloons and stood over him for years. She could stand it all until her virtue was assailed, and as that was all she had, she wished to have the accusation retracted.
Judge Fowler advised the woman to go to divorce if she wished to live apart from Rochford, and the woman seemed to look favorably upon the suggestion.
Looked forward to Monday.
Mrs. Horn and Mrs. McCune will lock horns in a neighborhood squabble before Judge Fowler tomorrow morning. Either woman can make a rattling single-handed talk and when they begin to explode at once it is certain to entertain the immense audience that will take part in the proceedings. Mrs. McCune alleges in her complaint that Mr. Horn is a holy terror that the use of language is her present state, that was vile and unrefined, Mrs. Horn's eulogy of Mrs. McCune would fill a larger book and the name she gives her is inexplicable one to say the least.
Colored People's Temple.
Three hundred invited people from Omaha enjoyed themselves in Syndicate park Friday. The occasion was splendidly organized by the colored Knights of Pythias and their wives. Long tables heavily laden with tempting viand were swarmed with the dusky individuals who did justice to the spread. Addresses were delivered by Rev. H.B. Parks and Bar J.H. Richardson, and the remainder of the day was happily spent by old and young in the genuine old-fashioned picnic style.
Mrs. Annie HafToy is visiting in Chicago. The street gang has done a good job in cleaning off both the Q and L street viaducts. From one to four men have been kept on the gang over since Judge Fowler put the new ordinance into effect.
John Forbes, office manager at Cudaby's, is home from a trip to Chicago.
H.H. Cudaby took out a permit to build a 400-foot cottage in Freeman's subdivision.
Mrs. Samuel Shrigley is home from a five weeks' visit with her parents in Ashland. The work of digging the N street sewer was completed Friday and a large force of workmen were laid off.
John Welsh was found suffering from a bad case of "snakes" yesterday morning and was locked up for safe keeping.
Miss Ella McBride was considerably miffed yesterday by trying to get off a motor train while it was in motion.
Rev. R.I. Wheeler will preach this morning on "Coming Kingdom," and in the evening on "The Power of the Gospel." Special music will be rendered.
Pat Regley caused the arrest of Frank Francis and Charles Orleans, both dog catchers. Mr. Regley charged the men with trespass. They entered his yard and took three untagged dogs that were tied.
Mrs. Argabright is home from a visit with friends in North Omaha.
Rice Arnold, city marshal at Blair, was in the city last evening.
A tin box containing valuable papers that were taken from Union Pacific railway at the station on the night of the robbery was found yesterday under a pile of brush along the Missouri river.
D.S. Plintoy, traveling salesman for Hammond & Mfg., was in town for a day and left last night for Kansas.
The dog pound was broken into Friday night and thirteen dogs were turned loose. This is the third time this has been done. Numerous complaints are received by the police of cattle running at large at night and destroying gardens all over the city. An ordinance covering this matter is now being considered by the council and will become a law in a very few days, when all guilty parties can be arrested and punished.
James Gordon was run in last night for begging on the street.
John Snodgress, a farmer, was arrested last night for being drunk. When searched, he had $150 in cash in his pockets, which he can thank the police for protecting. Detective Mitchell made the arrest.
The Board of Education will meet Monday night.
HERMAN COHEN-ARK.
Attempt to Sell an Irreputable Sheet on the Streets of Omaha.
Herman Cohen was arrested last night by Officer Donahue on the charge of selling an irreputable sheet, known as the Sunday Sun, on the streets. This is the first appearance of this so-called newspaper on the streets of Omaha since it was most effectively suppressed by the passage of an ordinance several months ago prohibiting its sale.
Cohen received 600 copies of the paper yesterday, and, as agent for Preston, the man who prints the sheet in a back room at 31 Dearborn Street, Chicago, began to offer it for sale through small newsboys who were ignorant of the fact that they were violating the law in selling it.
Two or three dozen little fellows were crying out the name of the paper and Officer Donahue was ordered to confiscate their stock of Suns and try and find out where they got the papers. One little fellow was arrested but on stating that Cohen gave him the papers to sell, he was released and Cohen arrested.
Several copies of the paper were taken to the station as evidence against the prisoner. When Cohen was searched, a letter signed "The Sunday Sun" with a seal stamp, was taken from him. This letter stated that 200 copies of the paper had been sent to him. The letter further stated that the Omaha department in the paper would be given great prominence on the first page and would be written so that the agent would have no difficulty in selling the papers.
The letter was addressed to Cohen and intimated that this city would be given a "turning over."
STOREY PARK HOTEL:
A suicide?
Some family thief helps himself to Carl Stellmacher's effects.
The officers who have been working to solve the supposed mystery concerning the death of Carl Stellmacher report that there is nothing to warrant the belief that the man met with foul play. At first there seemed to be some circumstantial evidence, but all clues were followed to the end without results.
When Stellmacher's goods were evicted by Constable Bingaman, some person or persons stole a case of very fine surgical instruments which were presented to the unfortunate man when he was an officer in the Prussian army. A private drawer in one of his desks was also robbed of some papers of more or less importance. The officers have made a thorough search for the missing articles and have visited all the pawnshops, but were unable to locate them. It is thought that the stolen property has been removed from the city or has been carefully concealed by the thieves.
It is now agreed that Stellmacher committed suicide while in a fit of despondency.
PYTHIAN SISTERS.
Many Temple Institution T. Knight Event Evening
Starting of the annual meeting,
About 150 people filled Pythian hall last night on the occasion of the institution of Omaha City temple of Pythian Sisters, which was organized with eighty-two charter members, consisting of prominent ladies of Omaha.
The temple was instituted by Mrs. J. G. Tipton, deputy supreme chief of Nebraska, assisted by her guest, Mrs. Ida M. Weavor of Des Moines, Iowa, past-supreme chief of the world, who arrived here for that especial purpose.
The floor work was executed by the degree staff of Mizpah temple of Council Bluffs and Alma temple of South Omaha. A large number of both ladies and Knights from South Omaha and Council Bluffs were present to assist in the Installation of the officers, as were also Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Hosman of Lincoln, guests of Mr. and Mrs. Judge Tipton.
Mrs. M. U. Roder was elected M. E. C.; Mrs. Dr. Patten, P. C.; Mrs. J. H. Flanagan, S. C.; Mrs. E. C. Crane, J. C.; Mrs. D. L. Morgan, M. of E.; Mrs. W. H. Brodacker, P. of C., and Miss Grace Cady.
It was one of the most enthusiastic and largest gatherings of that order, and the temple starts out under the most auspicious circumstances. After the installation of officers refreshments, consisting of ice cream and delicacies, were served and the balance of the evening was spent in society.
South Carolina Liquor Trouble!
CHARLESTON, S. C. Aug. 5. The state dispensary is very likely to create more trouble. It is obnoxious to the people and in some places it is not improbable that prying emissaries will not be tolerated. The treatment given them in Sumner yesterday, where they were beaten and assailed with rotten eggs, has aroused the proff. Governor Tillman, and today he opened an ordnance department for the state constabulary. He says that he is tired of having official insulted, and unless it is stopped, somebody will get hurt. Just as the newspapermen were about to leave the executive chamber, Governor Tillman got up, walked over to a cabinet and opened a drawer, in it were a lot of belts. Then another drawer was opened and in it a lot of Colt's army revolvers. When Governor Tillman was asked what they were for, he replied: "Look at sections 517 and 518 and you will see."
"How many have you got?" was asked.
"Oh, all we need. They won't rotten-eggs any more state constables. I am going to see that they are not ill-treated, am going to issue instructions that they shoot if necessary."

AGAINST THE SHERMAN ACT
Illinois' Junior Senator Announces His Attitude Plainly,
SENATOR PALMER IN FAVOR OF REPEAL
Not Think There Will Be Any Front
Seen In the Revision of the
Tariff "Bank" Bridge Again
on schedule.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 5. Senator John M. Palmer of Illinois has arrived here from Springfield. The senator talked freely concerning local and national politics. "The first thing to be done, of course," he said, "is to repeal the purchasing clause of the Sherman act. I am for the repeal without any condition attached. After we get repeal there will be time to talk of something to take the place of the Sherman act. I have made it a principle of my life never to swim a river till I got to it. The dissolution of substitutes for the Sherman act can only complicate the question, and we want to get rid of the main evil before getting into any complications.
"One thing is sure, I do not believe in a return to state banks as a means of increasing circulation. It is suggested that we allow national banks to issue notes to the full amount of their bonds. In fact, every man who comes to Washington will have a financial scheme to prove, and I have concluded to wait and look at the schemes instead of advocating one."
The senator was asked if he anticipated a speedy revision of the tariff.
"I am afraid," said he, "the country will be disappointed in not seeing much speed in anything. It is not generally understood that the northern states have thirty votes in the senate. This is a tremendous power in delaying action on financial, tariff, or any other measures. The great states of New York, Illinois, Indiana, and Pennsylvania, with an aggregate population of nearly 20,000,000, have not as much voice in the United States senate as those little slave states with an aggregate population of about 2,000,000. This should not be forgotten by the people who expect that congress is going to do something right off. In due time, I expect to see a fruitful revision of the tariff and the financial distress of the country will probably complicate, and delay the work."
Congressman "Buck" Kilgore reached home last night, and at once began backpedaling with his customary oratory. He is the champion abolitionist of the South, and he says with frankness that he expects to top his record as abolitionist by fighting to the last ditch against the repeal of the silver purchase clause of the Sherman law. Kilgore comes from Texas, where he has a free silver constituency. He said today with much Texas bluster that he did not care what Loveland wanted. "My constituents wanted free silver or the present Sherman law retained. He proposed, however, to exhaust every device of parliamentary obstruction before permitting the repeal to pass. He was confident that the democratic house could not adopt a cloture rule, as they had so long denounced "gag-rule." And without cloture, Kilgore smilingly asserted that "he would be able, with the assistance of a few other filibustering silver men, to the country a very interesting spectacle of delayed legislation.
Four Conclusions Resulting.
WASHINGTON; Aug. 5. Four facts are conspicuous in the statements of all the congressmen who have arrived: 1. That they are unwilling to commit themselves decidedly as to the course which they will pursue with regard to silver legislation until they shall have read the president's message. 2. That it is in inevitable that tariff as well as financial legislation must be considered. 3. That there is little doubt that the extra session is simply the beginning of the regular session of the Fifty-third congress and that it may be expected to continue certainly until next May and possibly until next August:
Good prospects for a Strike.
EVANSVILLE, Ind. Aug. 5. There is pretty good chance for all the trainmen of the Evansville and Terre Haute road to go out on a big strike. Trouble has been brewing for some time since President Grammar expressed his intention to order a general reduction of wages. The cut has never been enforced, as the movement met with unanimous disfavor when the matter was first mentioned. The officials of the road met with the men one night this week and came very near convincing them that the cut was absolutely necessary. The road had been paying fair wages to its employees, but since the financial stringency and the reduction in rates it is argued that wages will have to be cut to make things even up.
It was learned last night that a committee of railroad men had been sent to Evansville from Terre Haute to consult with the local employees. Whatever passes between the committee and the local committee will not be known unless a strike is declared. No definite action is likely to be taken in the matter until Sunday, when Messrs. Eugene Dobbs and Eugene Howard with other railroad leaders will be here to address the workingmen.
An Important Mineral Exhibition.
A.
CHICAGO, Aug. C. An Oscoola, la., man writes to the Inter Ocean a plan to solve the vexed question of bimetallism as follows: "My plan would be a coin consisting of pure gold worth 50 cents, 188 grains of pure silver worth 40 cents, which, amalgamated, would make a dollar bar of 200 grains. This should be the standard dollar or unit of value and a full legal tender, which would be nearly the size of our present half dollar. Free coinage should be authorized in this proposition, nearly 10 to 1, which would establish bimetallism in fact and not in name only. Our present output of 500,000,000 of gold per year would thus absorb an annual amount of silver, and there is no reason why such coins should not pass around the world. Doubled, a 82 coin would still not be as big as the present silver dollar, which could be retired. This would beat the Sherman experiments and could easily be made to differ in appearance from the present coins."
WHITBY, W. Va., Aug. 6. Stephen Welch and his wife were arrested yesterday at Alexander, 100 miles south of this city, for moonshining. Welch escaped capture from the officers and Mrs. Welch was captured and confined in a house in the town. Later a mob of her sympathizers surrounded the house and kept up a fire on the guards. Over twenty shots were exchanged before the officers surrendered and the woman was released. Three of the mob were injured and were carried away by their friends. More trouble is expected.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 5. The statement heretofore made and denied that the Indianapolis Cabinet company, of which Theodore Haughey is president, has borrowed $260,000, has been verified by the discovery of a mortgage on the records in the recorder's office given by the cabinet company to Haughey as trustee for the amount specified. The mortgage bears date of February, 1893, and the loan is to run for ten years. It is stated in the records that the purpose of the loan is to increase the business of the company on this and other continents.
DR. DURYEA'S VISIT.
Here He Is Recovered, but He Filled His Sermons with Gold.
Rev. Dr. Joseph T. Duryea, who is now pastor of the leading Congregational church in Omaha, where he is much beloved, as is known, is on a summer visit to one of our Long Island seaside resorts, and at the same time supplying the pulpit of the Clarkson avenue Presbyterian church, of which he was the first pastor, says the Brooklyn Eagle. His presence in this city has been the signal for the gathering of hosts of his old friends to hear him, and to greet him with their cordial expressions of welcome.
On Thursday evening, December 30, 1807, Dr. Duryea, having resigned the pastorate of the Marble Dutch Reformed church, New York, was installed pastor of the Clarkson avenue Presbyterian church. Services were at that time held in the chapel on Monroe street. On December 1 of the following year the cornerstone of the present handsome and snug office was laid. Rev. William H. Booth of New York, Rev. Dr. Theodore T. Cuyler and Rev. Thomas Clarkson participated in the exercises. In 1871 Dr. Duryea, whose health was somewhat impaired for lack of needed rest, was compelled to retire. Circumstances led him to accept a call to one of the leading and wealthy Congregational churches in Boston, under a promise that his pastoral duties would be light. This deprived the people of this city of much instructive preaching and lecturing at the hands of one who was to them a veritable table schoolmaster. When worn out by domestic attention in Boston, Dr. Duryea was ready to abandon scenes and associations which had all been pleasant to him, and so when Omaha stretched out its hands to him with an unanimous call to come over and help them, he consented, and has now for a number of years been rendering valuable service indoors and outdoors in that Nebraska fold.
At the close of the Sunday services during his temporary stay in this neighborhood, he has been the recipient of ovations. The congregations, despite the intense heat of the weather, have been large and attentive. The sermons have been eloquent, earnest, sympathetic, and full of educative power. Old parishioners from New York have been to hear him and to speak with him, and it has been an interesting spectacle for an observer to witness the influx of faces, the quick identifications, the splendid memory of faces evinced by the preacher. Young people who have become mature have been most readily recognized by the pastor of their youth. Then there is an exchange of remembrances of events in which all were mutually interested long ago. There has been the kindly, fervent words of consolation in cases where bereavement had done its work. Old men who have grown older have also sought around their former pastor to test him, but the names are on his lips the instant hands are clasped. Mothers have introduced their sons and daughters, whom Dr. Duryea baptized, and these young people have shared with their parents the happy reunion with the pastor of their infancy.
Dr. Duryea never manifests hurry. He seems to enjoy the friends who have the longest stories to tell him, and he listens to remembrances with a gusto which shows that he enjoys it. His present visit has been a source of great joy to hundreds who have grasped his hand and poured their experiences of years into his willing ears, while it has enhanced to him the memories of those whom he has seen as well as of those who have taken their departure since 1872, when he left the city.
Recently Dr. Duryea has been taxing his powers by outdoor preaching, and as a result his voice is strained, and he has been ordered, after the services of today, to close his mouth for some time to come, and to remain perfectly quiet, and subsequently to be more moderate in the expenditure of his speaking powers. The contact of Dr. Duryea with his old friends has been a very refreshing spectacle to those who have seen it, without having previously known him. With the exception of being a little gray, the doctor appears but little changed from the times when his face and form were familiar in our streets. The impression made by this visit and by his pulpit ministrations during the last three Sundays of July is a wholesome one, and has given birth to a longing for a Brooklyn reunion of a more permanent and lasting character.
One merry man said last Sunday night in a very calm tone, "Brooklyn is where Dr. Duryea has got to fetch up."
Lincoln's Governor Hostow has many friends among the rank and file, but the loaders will not accept him. Colonel Charles A. Clark of Cedar Rapids can have a large support in the convention if he is willing to enter the race, and probably he would make the strongest candidate that could be named. Having been a prominent railroad attorney for years, he is especially well qualified to lead the party which has so long claimed itself as the champion of anti-monopoly. W. W. Wilmer of Des Moines is being strongly urged by the local democrats, and he would make a very strong candidate if nominated. The situation grows interesting.
Ordinary Candidate: The Cincinnati, Aug. 9. - Bankers and whisky men are greatly agitated over Secretary Carlisle's order requiring government depositories to turn over their surplus to the Subtreasury instead of winding it to New York as heretofore. The whisky men declare that they cannot get the necessary currency and will have to close business.
A Wives Agent: Detroit Prooress: Wife That insurance agent who dined with us last night followed a very sentimentally followed. Is he planning to take you, dear?
Husband: No. He says I am too great a risk.
Wife: Why, there isn't anything the matter with you is there?
Husband: Oh, no. But he accidentally learned that YOU cooked the dinner.
Wife: Didn't wait to help?
Quot: Samuel Say, mister, I'm broke and came for a loan. If you wouldn't help or follow out.
Clarity: You've struck the right place exactly. We help men for that very purpose.
Here Muscleman!
But long before the bouncer could get a grip on Whisker's collar he had reached the sidewalk and was safe.
A Musical Vacation: "I saw Dimming drinking a mint julep just now," remarked one young man to another, "Hot held money had just borrowed to go on a vacation."
"Always musical, isn't hot?"
"How do you know?"
"We start out with a law notation; as beer, then a brief rest, and then repeat." | 41 |

Nothing is moro remarkable than the
vast contrast that exists between the
noise , the froth and the foam of politics
in Franco , and the quiet , silent , deter
mined way in which every enterprise
connected with tne defense of the re
public or the prosperity of its colonies is
undertaken and carried out. One of the
most noteworthy of these , says the Now
York Tribune , is the construction of the
harbor and fort of Tunis , which have
just been completed by the French gov
ernment. The capital of Tunis is bopa-
rated from the sea by a lagoon twelve
miles loiiL' , which was not even naviga
ble for small steamers , while the port
itself , La Goulotto , was BO shallow that
passenger boats had to remain at a dis
tance of about three-quarters of a mile
out at sea. Within the short space of
five years France has entirely metamor
phosed this state of affairs , and the
largest steamers can now advance between -
tween two superb jetties , lighted by
electricity , and moor alongside the
newly constructed quays , which at pres
ent constitute the finest ornament of the
city.

were about six foot lonp.throo feet high ,
nnd three feet wide. Tapes ran along
the top edge and extended in loobo ends
at the four corners. When the net was
sot up for use these corner tapes were
tied around four sticks , little corner

the 13. & M. was ij'l lnp over his line
the other day east from Denver. Oc
cupying the eamo scat with him in the
sleeper , says the Chicago Post , was a
gontloumn whom ho know very well ,
but who did not recognize , him. This
companion for the tlmo being scorned
not to have enjoyed n very good night's
rest and to have wnkoncd up that mornIng -
Ing in rather n grumpy mood. Ho had
just corno from the dining car , where ho
had breakfast , but still the meal soomcd
to have had no soothing effect on bis
temper.
"I do not BCO , " ho remarked to Mr.
Francis , "why these western roads
should have raised the rate to $1' per
moal. They worn high enough boforo.V
"They raised them , " said Mr. Francis ,
"because they had to. Running dining
cars has in the past been a source of
constant expense to the roads. The old
rates did not pay them the cost of fur
nishing the meals. "
"OhT I know that is what they claim ,
but it is all nonsense. Look here now ,
lot's figure out thin thing. Docs any
body mean to tyll mo that 75 conta
would not pay for all I had fbr break
fast this morning ? Lot's figure it out.
I had a bit of beefsteak. That did not
cost the company muru than 15
onts ; potatoes , say 5 cents I don't bo-
Hove I ate a cent's worth ; butter , say 3
cents ; cream , 3 cents ; broad well , 0
cents will buy a whole loaf , and I did
notoattno third of one say 4 cents
coffee , 10 cents ; strawberries , ICLconts
what I ate did not cost the third of that.
That would bo 50 cents , or just ono-half
of what the company charged mo for the
meal. I think it is an outrage. "
Mr. Francis listened , smiled , but did
not prolong the discussion. Presently
ho rose , loft the ca * and sought more
agreeable company In the smoking com
partment. Very soon another gentle
man occupied Ins seat.
"Did you notice that gentleman that
oft this seat a little while ago ? " asked
the discontented passenger of his now
neighbor. "His face seemed quite
"umiliar. I have been trying to place
lira since I first saw him this morning ,
but for the very lifo of me I cannot
do it. "
"Yes , I know that gentleman very
well , " replied the now ' arrival. "That is
. Francis , the gonc'Val passenger agent
of this road. " . ; . ,
"What ? Why , BO , it Is ! I thought I
ought to have known him. Well , I have
gone and put my foot in it badly. "
After awhile Mi * . Francis finished his
cigar , loft the stU iker and returned to
his former locutiofi in the sleeping car.
The discontentcd'jiravelo ! ' was still
there , but a change seemed to have
come over his disposition in the mean
time.
"You are Mr. Francis , I believe , " ho
said as graciously ay any one could 1m-
aginn , tlio general passenger agent of
tbis road ? "
"Yes. that is my name and position. "
"Well , I thought Tshouldhavo known
you Mv name is . "
"Ohl yes ! ' 1 amvery well a\vare of it.
I know you the moment I saw you , but
I saw ' .you did not recognize mo and I
thought I would say nothing about it. "
"Well , now.if the Union Pacific would
only run such a road as this. I declare
to you that is the vilest road I over
traveled over. "
"You appear to bo too hard to suit. It
seems pretty hard to satisfy you any way
you take it. I guess the Union Pacific
is all right. "
"Oh , como now. I hope you will not
feel , hurt over what I said" about the
price of meals , but I think the Union
Pacific is a vile road to travel over. "
"What was the secret of thotchango ? "
repeated Mr. Francis as ho told of the
incident. "Why , that man was travel
ing on a pass. His transportation did
not cost him a cent and ho was not satis
fied because the 'road did not furnish
him with free meals in addition to free
transportation. "

NEW YOIIK , Aug 5. [ Special Telegram to
THE UBB ] Wall street continues worried by
the scarcity of currency and business houses
of the whole city nro troubled almost as
much on the same question. This
morning nt a number of the big banks
tno ofllclals , when checks were presented ,
handed out coin , nnd in many cases daily
refused to pay in bills. The universal rea
son was they did not have bills to glvo.
rani In Uolil.
When a check for $500 ortl.OOO was handed
in at the cashier's window a bag of gold
coin was turned over to the pre
senter of the papor. Odd amounts
of a few dollarwere paid
in cither bills or stiver , but the banks put
out as few cart wheels as possible. The
scarcity of currency has been made more
marKed today by tno endeavor of all busi
ness nnd manufacturing nnd financial Insti
tutions that maka'wago ' payments Saturday
to secure small bills In small
denominations , mid currency brokers did a
thriving business. Ono firm h.id advertised
in n newspaper offering fT.GO per 1,000
for silver dollars. Brokers charged
l } to 2) per cent for bills nnd sil
ver dollars. The subtrcasury was busy all
morning paying out small bills. For nay
roll use United States notes In denomina
tions of CA. $10 nnd $20 were given. * Gold
was paid for checks on the United States
treasury presented over the counter.
It was reported on good authority , al
though Wall street was skeptical as to the
truth of the story , that such of the gold now
afloat for this country as had not been se
cured by the savings banks , had been sold to
out-of-town banks at a premium of IVjj per
cent. The larger importing houses dented
that they had sold their gold , although
offers for it had been made to them.
The subtieasury-pald its balance of f03,050

was paid out ever the counter on checks
? 585,00u , mostly in gold , with a sprinkling pf

Few oyonts in the history of Wall street
have been moro astonishing nnd sensational
than this week's rapid uUvnnco of stock mar
ket prices in the face of a money situation
critical in the extreme.
Some time ago in commenting on the vio-
ent declines of that time , reference was
mndo to the well known characteristics of
protracted speculative movements by which
the advance or decline , reflecting at the out
set the real conditions , is certain to carry
oriccs beyond the bounds of reason. That this
was done by the recent manipulators for the
[ \eclinehns long been evident. So dark and
lopelcss did the outlook seem that the lead-
ng "bear" speculators were tempted to in
crease their con tracts on the short si Jo loan
unprecedented volume. They were followed ,
apparently , us successful leaders in Wall
street are , by a great and indiscriminate
rabble of small speculators. The result was
that when an upward turn of the market
actually came the demand for stocks to take
profits on the speculative sales was enor
mously greater than the supply offered at
market prices. In particular , the collapse
on Wednesday of'lust week , when panic
scorned imminent , had led this class of oper
ators to believe that every ono was ready to
sell. But this improvement came when no
one realized that forced liquidation of that
gloomy day eamo chiefly from the Chicago
produce speculators , then already on the

TAl.lUNU IT OVUIt.
Bland nml Other Conire nien Glvo Tliolr
'Views on tlio Silver Question.
WASHINGTON , Aug , 4. As soon after congress -
gross moots as It becomes practicable , Mr.
Bland , the le.idor of the silver forces in the
houso. will introduce a bill embodying the
views of the silver mon. It will provide for
the repeal of the Sherman purchasing act
and substitute therefor the free colnugo of
silver at the present ratio of 10 to 1 , "That , "
said Mr. Bland , "will bo the ground upon
which wo will mako1 the fight , although
there has been no definite plan agreed upon. "
Ho recognized that men could honestly
differ as to the ratio , but that was a matter
that should bo settled in the party itself.-
By the use of both gold and silver as money
at a parity the democratic party could not
differ. If a compromise measure increasing
the ratio was reached , he said , ho saw no
reason why tho'pre'sent dollar should not bo
kept In circulation us it was now. Ho pro
posed , however , with all his power to resist
any increase iu the ratio.
Arbitrary uud Uncalled For.
The attitude of the treasury department
in refusing to buy silver was arbitrary and
uncalled for , Mr. Bland said , "but , there
was no ground for the talk that the secre
tary could bo Impeached. The law gave him
the discretion and ho was exorcising It , and
that wus ono of the mistakes of the law. as
ho looked it , which was full of mistakes.
Ho warned friend * of silver on this very
point when the bill cnmo up for considera
tion In the house.
The Bland-Allison act was superior in that
rcsucct , in that it did not give the secretary
the jwwer , but required him to purchase a
specific amount. If the United States , Mexico
ice and South American countries , together
with tno countries of Asia on our west , were
to agree upon a common ratio , Mr. Bland

As the platform calls for the equal treatment

CUICAOO , Aug. 4. The executive commlt-
tee of the populist party , which has been in
session hero since the adjournment of the
silver convention , tonight Issued an address
to the people of the United States. It suys
in part :
"Tho overwhelming spirit of this conven
tion indicates that the whole nation is alive
to the dangers which threaten us. The con
vention not only repudiated the idea of
a gold standard and a gold basis ,
but unanimously committed itself to
the principle that wo , as populists ,
have long held nnd cherished , namely :
That law nlonb makes money , and
that the stamp of the government converts
00 cents wortn of silver into a dollar , equal
to any gold dollar. And they unanimously
accepted our doctrine that the money of
the country should bo adequate for the de
mands of business nnd should expand wltn
ho growth of population and commerce. "
The address holds out the Idea that the
liver convention was a great victory for the
populist principles as embodied 'n the
Omaha platform and states that the struggle
will obliterate old party lines ; that tens of
housands of now converts nro coming to

NEBRASKA'S 'STRONG BANKS
Comptroller Eckles Compliments the National Institutions of the State.
SPLENDID RESERVE OF THE BANKS
Their Artistic CM in Nebraska Firm Million
and the Individual Depositors Fifteen Million More Formulates
Appointed.
WASHINGTON THEN: The Coin, Fourteenth Street,
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.
Comptroller of Currency Eckels today, after reading over the consolidated reports
of the 122 national banks in Nebraska, outside of Omaha, showing their condition on
July 12, 1891, passed them a high compliment. It was expected that banks so far away
from the large money centers would have a low reserve, small cash and credit balances,
and, above all, a large aggregate of rediscounts. The reverse proves true. The average
reserve of the national banks of Nebraska, exclusive of Omaha, was on the 12th of last month 23-100 and 13-100 percent, which is well above that of the banks of the surrounding states and above that of Illinois, Ohio; Pennsylvania and New York. The available cash is nearly $1,000,000, the rediscounts only $625, and the Individual deposits ever $15,000,000. This is an exceptionally good showing for these times.
Other Items in the consolidated reports are:
ASSOCIATIONS,
Loans and discounts $18,007,370
Overdrafts. 245,480
U. S. bonds in secure circulation 2,030,000
Due from national banks 2,337,072
Due from other national banks 204,135
Due from state banks 1,109,0154
Legal tender notes 443,300

Due from national banks 303,088
Due from state banks 435,138
Notes and bills discounted 687,229
Bills payable 347,207
Utah's National banks have the largest
percent of reserve of any banks in the west,
If not the entire country. Their reports
show their reserve to be on an average of
84.66 percent, which is about 8 percent
above the banks in the average states.
They show:
Loans and discounts $4,308,057
Overdrafts 108,772
Due from banks 430,300
Cash items 67,047
Eclectic bills of other banks, and fractional currency 841,028

Idaho's thirteen National banks had an
average reserve on hand July 12 of 20.04 percent,
and shows:
Loans and discounts 1,840,273

Further Upon Information,
Any information is semiofficially made that
"the raid upon the pension rolls will begin
as soon as the Tarsney question is disposed of
in the house, and before the tariff bill is reported. " In the same connection the statement comes indirectly from Speaker Crisp
that Mr. Tarsney of Kansas City will succeed Mr. Martin of Indiana as chairman of
the house committee on invalid pensions.
Mr. Martin, who was a union soldier, displayed too much eagerness in the last congress to pass pension bills, and opposed the various democratic measures for reducing pensions. Mr. Tarsney was a union soldier,
but he has lived in a hotbed of ex-Confederacy for a dozen years, and has held offices repeatedly by grace of that element and these opposed to pensions.
He appears to be about the only ex-soldier who is willing, or can afford to assume
such the responsibility of "purging the records of one-third of the persons who are
drawing pensions and who are on the roll;
through fraud," as the majority of the present house has declared. The pension business has been by Speaker Crisp and other leading democrats in the house, made of greater importance as a party and economic question than the tariff, and second only to the inflation situation.

John Hyde, formerly of Omaha, but at present chief of a division of the census bureau, has an article in this evening's Washington Star on "Railroad Statistics," in which he says that all of our fast locomotives are American made, and those of England are of British manufacture only, Mr. Hyde evidently believes the English locomotives are swifter than those of our country, and that American locomotives will not get foothold in Europe.
William P. Harris was today appointed postmaster at Perkins, Mahaska county, Iowa, replacing William N. Hunt, removed.

A Great Naval Work.
Nothing is more remarkable than the vast contrast that exists between the noise, the froth, and the foam of politics in France, and the quiet, silent, determined way in which every enterprise connected with the defense of the republic or the prosperity of its colonies is undertaken and carried out. One of the most noteworthy of these, says the New York Tribune, is the construction of the harbor and fort of Tunis, which have just been completed by the French government. The capital of Tunis is separated from the sea by a lagoon twelve miles long, which was not even navigable for small steamers, while the port itseft, La Goulette, was so shallow that passenger boats had to remain at a distance of about three-quarters of a mile out at sea. Within the short space of five years, France has entirely metamorphosed this state of affairs, and the largest steamers can now advance between two superb jetties, lighted by electricity, and moor alongside the newly constructed quays, which at present constitute the finest ornament of the city.
World's fair views Courtland beach.
Speaking of mosquitoes, "said the man on the veranda, "there were issued some of the troops in the eastern part of the south during the civil war in this country, from 1861 to 1865, mosquito nets, which might be called individual nets, for they were one to a person. Those nets, when not in position, were about six feet long, three feet high, and three feet wide. Tapes ran along the top edge and extended in leather ends at the four corners. When the net was set up for use, these corner tapes were tied around four sticks, little corner posts, driven into the ground. It might seem amusing, the idea of issuing mosquito nets to troops engaged in actual service; they might think that men in constant danger of being bitten by cannon balls and bullets would have little fear of mosquitoes, but this would be merely the superficial view of persons not fully acquainted with the mosquito.

Spotted; Species of Trees,
There are 415 species of trees found within the limits of the United States and territories, sixteen of which, when perfectly seasoned, will sink in water. The heaviest of these is the black ironwood, found only in southern Florida, which is more than 10 percent heavier than water. Texas and New Mexico lands are full of queer, creeping, crawling, walking, and inanimate things, are the home of a species of oak which is about one and one-fourth times heavier than water, and which, when green, will sink almost as quickly as a bar of iron.

CRISP WILL BE REELECTED
Democratic Congressmen in Caucus Nominated Him for Speaker,
HE WAS SELECTED BY ACCLAMATION
Advice Given to the Assembled Democrats by the Veteran Committee Notwithstanding by the Republican Caucus
Tom Reid's Item,
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5. The hall of the house of representatives was well filled with democratic members, when, at 8:30, Mr. Holman, chairman of the caucus, called it to order. It was known before this hour, however, that Mr. Crisp's renomination as speaker was assured and that there would be no contest over the doorkeeper-ship.
Turner of New York, after the action of the New York caucus, declaring that he was not a candidate, and Smith of Texas, securing the landslide in Burton's direction, withdrew from the race.
After a short speech by Mr. Holman, Mr. Turner of Georgia nominated Mr. Crisp for reelection in a brief but well-timed speech.
This nomination was seconded in short, pithy speeches by Messrs. Coombs of New York, Hatch of Missouri and Wilson of West Virginia, after which Mr. Crisp was nominated by acclamation and amid applause. Mr. Springer, Hatch and Wilson were selected as a committee to notify the speaker and a few minutes later brought him into the hall, where he was Introduced by Mr. Hatch.
Mr. Crisp's Speech.
Mr. Crisp spoke as follows: "In this extraordinary condition of affairs throughout the country has necessitated our meeting in extraordinary session. In so far as that condition is attributable to existing laws, we are in no wise responsible therefor. Now for the first time in more than thirty years, we are in full power. We can repeal the bad laws and we can make good ones. The people have entrusted us with that power and expect us to exercise it in their behalf.
"Our financial system should be revised and reformed. The strictest economy in public expenditures should be observed, and taxation should be equalized and greatly reduced. To these purposes we are thoroughly committed. We must redeem our pledges. Let us begin the work at once. Let us lay aside every other consideration than the public good and endeavor to so discharge the duties assigned to us to restore confidence, promote prosperity and advance the general welfare of all classes of our people.
"Sincerely grateful for your confidence and esteem, I pledge myself to devote to the discharge of the responsibilities of the responsible position you have assigned to me, all the energy and ability I possess."
At the close of Speaker Crisp's speech, Mr. Keer of Pennsylvania was renominated as clerk by acclamation and the caucus then proceeded to the election of a sergeant-at-arms, the leading candidates being the present incumbent Mr. Yoder of Ohio and Mr. Snow of Illinois.
Republicans in Caucus.
The room of the Judiciary committee was none too large to hold the Republican members of the house tonight. Mr. Henderson of Illinois, presided and Mr. Hooker of New York acted as secretary and each was subsequently re-elected to the same position in the caucus for the ensuing congress.
General Henderson nominated ex-Speaker Reed for speaker, saying that he would name a man whose record and whose hold on the popular heart would make a more eloquent appeal than anything he might be able to say.
The nomination was made by acclamation and after prolonged applause Mr. Reed responded in his sarcastic style. Four months ago, he said, they had left Congress and returned to their homes with the country in a prosperous condition. All the mills were running, the spindles playing, furnaces roaring, labor employed everywhere, and the people happy. "Now," he continued, "we are called back to find an extraordinary depression, distress in all circles and general demoralization of the finances of the country, a condition, of course, precipitated by democratic failure to legislate. In this emergency the democrats call upon the republicans to lay aside all partisanship, forget anything that has been done in the past and join with the democrats to get them out of their present trouble."
Will They Discharge Their Duty.
There was no attempt on the part of Mr. Reed to outline a party policy and he concluded by saying the republican party would be found discharging its duty in a way to fit it to the broad measure of its past record when it was in the majority, and if it did this, it could be asked to do no more.
The remainder of the ticket nominated was as follows: Clerk, E.D. McPherson, Pennsylvania; sergeant-at-arms, A.J. Holmes, Iowa; doorkeeper, J.L. Hathaway, Montana; chaplain, Rev. Horace Green of New York, these being, with the exception of the chaplain, the officers of the Fifty-first congress.
An Uproar for Smaller Ones.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5. The register's office of the treasury has for the past week been in receipt of numerous consignments of 4 percent United States bonds for exchange into smaller denominations, the amount thus exchanged during the past three days aggregating more than $1,000,000. Large bonds, at the request of the holders, were turned into bonds of the denomination of $50 and $100. This same state of affairs as to bonds, it is recalled at the treasury, took place shortly after the war, when large denominations of the 7-30 percent bonds were exchanged into smaller denominations and passed current as money in general business.
Working Overtime to Supply the Demand.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5. Acting Secretary Curtis has ordered the force in the bureau of engraving and printing to work an extra hour each day until further orders, beginning Monday next, in printing national bank notes, for which the demand just now is very great. The demand is caused by national banks expanding their circulation.
No Trying to Hush Rumors.
WASHINGTON, August 5. The story that Z.T. Michener and other Indiana friends of Benjamin Harrison are burrowing a movement designed to secure the nomination of the latter for president is apparently an idle invention. Mr. Michener himself said: "There is not a word of truth in the statement. I am not doing anything about Mr. Harrison's nomination in 1888, nor do I believe any movement of the sort is on foot. General Harrison's friends all know that his renomination could only come through conditions which may or may not exist that year. It would be sheer nonsense to expect to bring it about by any organization made at this time. If the time ever does come to renominate him, it will not be done by secret means. General W.W. Dudley said that there was no truth in the statement. Both gentlemen were called upon by scores of politicians for facts as to the truth of the allegation.
In Pennsylvania.
HUNTINGTON, Pa., Aug. 5. The farmers in the lower end of this county are in despair over the great loss they have sustained by an invasion of grasshoppers. The insects appeared in countless swarms, destroying everything growing in their path. They have ruined hundreds of tons of hay and the entire crop of timothy seed. Now they have attacked what few vegetables have survived the continued drought.
Sprockets on Sugar.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 5. Chief Sprockets has abandoned for the present his intention of going to Washington on sugar matters, and will now await a summons from some congressional investigating committee. "The sugar refining industry is certainly not ready to stand alone," said he, "though in a few years it may be, for improved machinery is all the time lessening the labor required. I believe this country ought to produce all the sugar it uses - somewhere near 1,380,000 tons. With the encouragement of the sugar refining industry, this will be brought about. We need, however, for about two years yet; certainly the cane sugar men of the south need help."
THE DEAD HAD A KICKER.
A funny joke follows an attempt to squelch.
J. Francis, general passenger agent of the B&M, was traveling over his line the other day east from Denver. Occupying the same seat with him in the sleeper, says the Chicago Post, was a gentleman whom he knew very well, but who did not recognize him. This companion for the time being scorned not to have enjoyed a very good night's rest and to have woken up that morning in rather a grumpy mood. He had just come from the dining car, where he had breakfast, but still the meal seemed to have had no soothing effect on his temper.
"I do not see," he remarked to Mr.
Francis, "why these western roads should have raised the rate to $1 per month. They were high enough before." "They raised them," said Mr. Francis, "because they had to. Running dining cars has in the past been a source of constant expense to the roads. The old rates did not pay them the cost of furnishing the meals." "Oh, I know that is what they claim, but it is all nonsense. Look here now, let's figure out this thing. Does anybody mean to tell me that 75 cents would not pay for all I had for breakfast this morning? Let's figure it out. I had a bit of beefsteak. That did not cost the company more than 15 cents; potatoes, say 5 cents. I don't believe I ate a cent's worth; butter, say 3 cents; cream, 3 cents; bread, 5 cents will buy a whole loaf, and I did not eat a third of one, say 4 cents coffee, 10 cents; strawberries, 15 cents what I ate did not cost the third of that. That would be 50 cents, or just one-half of what the company charged me for the meal. I think it is an outrage." Mr. Francis listened, smiled, but did not prolong the discussion. Presently he rose, left the car, and sought more agreeable company in the smoking compartment. Very soon another gentleman occupied his seat.
"Did you notice that gentleman that sat in this seat a little while ago?" asked the discontented passenger of his now neighbor. "His face seemed quite familiar. I have been trying to place him since I first saw him this morning, but for the very life of me I cannot do it." "Yes, I know that gentleman very well," replied the now arrival. "That is Francis, the general passenger agent of this road."
"What? Why, so it is! I thought I ought to have known him. Well, I have gone and put my foot in it badly." After awhile Mr. Francis finished his cigar, left the stoker, and returned to his former location in the sleeping car. The discontented traveler was still there, but a change seemed to have come over his disposition in the meantime.
"You are Mr. Francis, I believe," he said as graciously as anyone could imagine, the general passenger agent of this road?" "Yes, that is my name and position." "Well, I thought I should have known you. My name is..." "Oh! yes! I am very well aware of it. I know you the moment I saw you, but I saw you did not recognize me and I thought I would say nothing about it." "Well, now, if the Union Pacific would only run such a road as this, I declare to you that is the vilest road I ever traveled over." "You appear to be too hard to please. It seems pretty hard to satisfy you anyway you take it. I guess the Union Pacific is all right." "Oh, come now. I hope you will not feel hurt over what I said about the price of meals, but I think the Union Pacific is a vile road to travel over." "What was the secret of that change?" repeated Mr. Francis as he told of the incident. "Why, that man was traveling on a pass. His transportation did not cost him a cent and he was not satisfied because the road did not furnish him with free meals in addition to free transportation."
The Clerk and the Kicker.
Hotel World: The guest was a kicker and the clerk had been spoiling for a chance at him.
"What's my bill!" demanded the man in an I-don't-expect-there'll-be-a-big-row tone of voice.
"Nineteen dollars and seventy-five cents."
"What! he thundered, "how do you make it out?"
"With pen and ink the same as all of them," was the calm reply, and the kicker was so stunned that he settled without another word.

It would perhaps make them more attached and deferential to you, as they desire to be. Please let me know your opinion and decision in the premises." The archbishop comments on the letter as follows: "The devoted clergy and faithful of the diocese will perceive that the above letter contains neither a command nor an explicit request on the part of the most reverent delegate."
PAPER MONEY STILL SCARCE
New York Banks Striving to Replenish Their Supply of Greenbacks.
SMALL BILLS BRING A GOOD PREMIUM
Hanker's Paying Checks in Gold and Silver
An Advantage of from 1 1-2 to 3 1-4
Premium for Currency and Silver
Dollars additional Notes.
NEW YORK, Aug 5. [Special Telegram to THE GLOBE] Wall street continues worried by the scarcity of currency and business houses of the whole city are troubled almost as much on the same question. This morning at a number of the big banks officials, when checks were presented, handed out coin, and in many cases daily refused to pay in bills. The universal reason was they did not have bills to give.
Grand In Gold.
When a check for $500 or $1,000 was handed in at the cashier's window, a bag of gold coin was turned over to the presenter of the paper. Odd amounts of a few dollars were paid in either bills or silver, but the banks put out as few cart wheels as possible. The scarcity of currency has been made more marked today by the endeavor of all business and manufacturing and financial institutions that make payments Saturday to secure small bills in small denominations, and currency brokers did a thriving business. One firm had advertised in a newspaper offering $5.00 per 1,000 for silver dollars. Brokers charged 1.5 to 2.5 percent for bills and silver dollars. The subtreasury was busy all morning paying out small bills. For any roll use United States notes in denominations of $10 and $20 were given. Gold was paid for checks on the United States treasury presented over the counter.
It was reported on good authority, although Wall Street was skeptical as to the truth of the story, that such of the gold now afloat for this country as had not been secured by the savings banks, had been sold to out-of-town banks at a premium of 4.5 percent. The larger importing houses denied that they had sold their gold, although offers for it had been made to them.
The subtreasury paid its balance of $303,050 at the clearing house in currency. There was paid out over the counter on checks $585,000, mostly in gold, with a sprinkling of treasury notes. Of silver $30,000 was paid out.
Assortment and Soniatloiml.
Few seasons in the history of Wall Street have been more astonishing and sensational than this week's rapid decline of stock market prices in the face of a money situation critical in the extreme.
Some time ago in commenting on the violent declines of that time, reference was made to the well-known characteristics of protracted speculative movements by which the advance or decline, reflecting at the outset the real conditions, is certain to carry forces beyond the bounds of reason. That this was done by the recent manipulators for the decline has long been evident. So dark and hopeless did the outlook seem that the leading "bear" speculators were tempted to increase their contracts on the short side to an unprecedented volume. They were followed, apparently, as successful leaders in Wall Street are, by a great and indiscriminate rabble of small speculators. The result was that when an upward turn of the market actually came the demand for stocks to take profits on the speculative sales was enormously greater than the supply offered at market prices. In particular, the collapse on Wednesday of last week, when panic seemed imminent, had led this class of operators to believe that everyone was ready to sell. But this improvement came when no one realized that forced liquidation of that gloomy day came chiefly from the Chicago produce speculators, then already on the verge of ruin.
TALIONE IT OUT.
Bland and Other Coinage Men Give Their Views on the Silver Question.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. As soon after Congress meets as it becomes practicable, Mr. Bland, the leader of the silver forces in the House, will introduce a bill embodying the views of the silver mon. It will provide for the repeal of the Sherman purchasing act and substitute therefor the free coinage of silver at the present ratio of 10 to 1, "That," said Mr. Bland, "will be the ground upon which we will make the fight, although there has been no definite plan agreed upon." He recognized that men could honestly differ as to the ratio, but that was a matter that should be settled in the party itself. By the use of both gold and silver as money at a parity, the democratic party could not differ. If a compromise measure increasing the ratio was reached, he saw no reason why the present dollar should not be kept in circulation as it was now. He proposed, however, with all his power to resist any increase in the ratio.
Arbitrary and Uncalled For.
The attitude of the treasury department in refusing to buy silver was arbitrary and uncalled for, Mr. Bland said, "but, there was no ground for the talk that the secretary could be impeached. The law gave him the discretion and he was exercising it, and that was one of the mistakes of the law, as he looked at it, which was full of mistakes. He warned friends of silver on this very point when the bill came up for consideration in the House.
The Bland-Allison act was superior in that respect, in that it did not give the secretary the power, but required him to purchase a specific amount. If the United States, Mexico, and South American countries, together with the countries of Asia on our west, were to agree upon a common ratio, Mr. Bland thought, we would have all the trade we wanted and would thereby force Europe to come to the use of silver as money.
Mr. Bland said that he had not seen the speaker, and when it was suggested to him that some of his friends in the east would be glad to see him off the committee on coinage, he only smiled and said they could not, at any rate, run him off the floor of Congress.
The champion of silver declared that there would be a bitter fight against any attempt to change the rules so that a cloture provision might be incorporated.
Mr. Henderson's Plan,
Representative Henderson of North Carolina has a plan for the readjustment of the silver question that he holds out to be satisfactory to the proponents who wish to see the democratic platform declarations carried into effect without creating divisions in the party.
As the platform calls for the equal treatment of gold and silver, and as some Democrats do not deem it wise to provide for the free coinage of silver, he would withdraw that privilege from gold and provide for the coinage of both metals on account of the government exclusively. This might be accomplished, he thinks, by passing a bill requiring the absolute purchase of a certain proportion of each metal each month and the coinage of all purchased. Congress might, from time to time, change this proportion to the needs of the country seemed to require, and thus adjust the circulation to the demands.
Representative Outhwaite of Ohio is one of the few western men who declares himself in favor of an immediate and unconditional repeal of the silver purchase section of the Sherman law, but after that is done he says he would immediately turn his attention to some legislation intended to secure the more extended use of silver as a money metal. One point upon which Mr. Outhwaite takes strong ground is that the silver bullion now in the treasury should be coined at once and put into circulation and thus relieve the money stringency. He says that as the secretary of the treasury has taken the position that national notes issued in payment for silver bullion purchased are redeemable in gold alone, it does not appear there is any reason to retain this bullion in the treasury for redemption purposes.
Fighting for Silver.
The canvass for the nomination of the two contested places in the House organization was resumed this afternoon with renewed vigor by the candidates, the incoming of personal friends putting more life into the contest than has yet appeared. Mr. Hurt for the first time came out with the positive statement that he will win the race for doorkeeper, while Mr. Smith appears to be as sanguine as ever.
Among Coming is doing some unforgettable work against Mr. Turner of his state. The friends of Turner say that Mr. Coming's opposition is due to personal reasons and that it will not affect his canvass.
In the contest for sergeant-at-arms, Mr. Outhwaite and three other Ohio members, it is said this afternoon, would oppose Mr.
Yoder's nomination, if the state saw fit to endorse him, and fight him in the general caucus, has said that ex-Speaker Pierce will be honored with the complimentary vote of his party for the speakership at the caucus tomorrow night, but who the remaining candidates for the empty honors may be is not known.
FILLMORE CLASSIC MAY BE FEATURED AT THE HAYWARD.
It is hoped that Congress will act derisively on the silver question.
WASHINGTON, Del., Aug. 4. The following is printed here: In a private letter just received, Ambassador Bayard says:
"I am looking somewhat anxiously to the meeting of Congress, and hope there will be no faltering in the resolve to maintain the good weight of value. So far from depreciating the intrinsic value of silver bullion, I believe the cessation of strong and accumulation of stock will help the market price for this commodity as it would help any other commodity.
"Whatever future steps may be taken, a present stoppage in the purchase of silver bullion under the Sherman Act is of the plainest duty and necessity. Green spectacles put upon a donkey are reported to have induced him to eat shavings instead of grass, but it was not a sustaining diet.
"The intrinsic value of gold makes it the best standard and measure of the unit for the calculation of exchanges and to uphold it is simply to throw the whole machinery of civilized contracts out of gear, to bring about confusion and disaster and strike a blow at all obligations of morality and good faith, which are the cornerstones of honest life.
"What a cry would go up if the pound avoirdupois were reduced to ten ounces and contracts executed at that rate! Speculators are not needed to guide men in such paths and no sophistry should be permitted to obscure the plain way."
CLAIMS OF THIS POPULISTS.
Address issued by Their National Nominated Committee,
CHICAGO, Aug. 4. The executive committee of the populist party, which has been in session here since the adjournment of the silver convention, tonight issued an address to the people of the United States. It says in part:
"The overwhelming spirit of this convention indicates that the whole nation is alive to the dangers which threaten us. The convention not only repudiated the idea of a gold standard and a gold basis, but unanimously committed itself to the principle that we, as populists, have long held and cherished, namely:
That law alone makes money, and that the stamp of the government converts 100 cents worth of silver into a dollar, equal to any gold dollar. And they unanimously accepted our doctrine that the money of the country should be adequate for the demands of business and should expand with the growth of population and commerce."
The address holds out the idea that the silver convention was a great victory for the populist principles as embodied in the Omaha platform and states that the struggle will obliterate old party lines; that tens of thousands of new converts are coming to their ranks, and recommending industrial unions and all similar organizations as valuable aids in organizing and educating the people.
STEVENSON TALKS.
He Thinks that the Sherman Act Will Be Sprelully Repealed.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Aug. 4. Vice President Stevenson left this evening for Washington, to be present at the special session of Congress on Monday. To an Associated Press correspondent tonight he said: "From the advice I have received, it is my opinion that the Sherman Act of 1891 will be repealed, but as to any substitute I am not prepared to talk. I hardly think anything will be done with the tariff at this session, as Congress would not have time. It is exceedingly hard to tell whether the session will be long or short, and it is extremely hard to foretell anything concerning it. I hardly think Congress will have time to adjust matters so that it can adjourn in as short a time as ten days, as has been suggested."
Favors a Double Standard.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. Mr. Dolliver of Missouri, a leading member of the House Committee on Appropriations, arrived tonight. He said he was an advocate of the double standard but declined to state how he stands on the proposition to repeal the Sherman law. The inference drawn from his remarks, however, was that he opposed its unconditional repeal and would vote with those who sought a reasonable compromise.
Mr. Sayers, also a member of the appropriations committee from Texas, in common with the other members from his state, favors free coinage at a ratio to be agreed upon by the party.
Indebtedness in Trimble.
MUNCIE, Ind., Aug. 4, This morning the citizens National bank of this city failed to open its doors. A notice on the door said the assets were ample to pay all depositors. Hundreds of depositors congregated about the bank.
Depositors of the Delaware National, Farmers National and Merchants National banks then commenced to draw out their money. The run continued until 4 o'clock this evening. Heavy deposits are being made by wealthy citizens to save the remaining three.
Mexican Solution.
TACOMA, Wash., Aug. 4. Mexican Minister Romero and Senator Diaz, son of President Diaz of Mexico, arrived today en route to Alaska.
Romero, when asked how the attitude of the Sherman law affects Mexico, said: "We cannot give up silver as a money metal. Silver is the only money we have and the country would be bankrupt if compelled to give it up. But silver will not be excluded from coinage,"
Vallum in Sioux City,
SIOUX CITY, Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] The W.H. Livingston company, retail dealers in dry goods, went into the hands of a receiver here today. Sidney Clarke is receiver and will close the business out. The company has liabilities of $15,000, and assets of fully $400,000. The receivership was caused by complications growing out of the death of W.H. Livingston, formerly manager of the company.
Gold Certificates.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4, It is stated at the Treasury department that there is no likelihood of resumption of the issue of gold certificates until the free gold stand from $7,000,000 to $10,000,000, above the reserve. This increase can only be authorized by the secretary of the treasury, who has not yet given any instructions in that direction. The free gold is now nearly $900,000.
The Mills of Bellevue,
PAIiI RIVER, Mass., Aug. 4, Several of the mills, owing to the scarcity of currency, today paid off their hands in clearing house certificates, which will be generally accepted by merchants here. Several mills have reduced their working forces and it is estimated that one-third of the spindles in the city are now idle.
Located Him in Denver
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 4. John B. Keeney, cashier of the South Side Savings bank, who ran away the night before the bank suspended two weeks ago, has been located in Denver and an officer has started for that city with the necessary papers to secure his presence. In Milwaukee
Currency Ordered Primarily.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. Since August 1 the comptroller of the currency has ordered currency printed on the security of United States bonds for national bank circulation to the amount of $3,032,000. The actual amount issued on bonds since the 1st of the month has been $714,160.

The return of M. Pavie, the French inspector to Siam, is expected daily.
The provinces are in a very disturbed state. The Saligon papers say that there was some severe fighting between the Siamese and French on July 30 on the Mekong River. It is said that many Siamese were killed, while the French losses were slight. The latter have occupied several more islands.
Hungry Alters Turn Footpads.
SALT LAKE, Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to The Times]: Salt Lake has been filling up with a large number of unemployed men since the mines began to close down. They have begun to organize into bands of burglars and footpads and during the week have carried out their bold work in the heart of the city, holding up prominent men on the street. The police gathered in a group of footpads today and nearly all confessed their crimes, adding that being without employment and resources of any kind they became desperate for food.
Mythril Coin Brak City Robbery.
NORTH CANTON, Aug. 4. [Special Telegram to The BEE]: A mysterious robbery was committed in this city Saturday. M.P. Smith & Son, commission merchants, deposited $700 with the Adams Express company for shipment to Pottawattamie, Neb., in payment for hogs. The money, was put in the safe and the day lock turned. Half an hour afterwards the money was missing. The matter has been kept quiet in the hope of locating the thief but so far without success.
Rhine Mertz's Policy Resisted.
DENVER, Aug. 4. At the annual synod of the diocese of Denver held today, Bishop Mertz presiding, a resolution was passed approving the bishop's school policy. Inasmuch as Mgr. Satolli only a month ago condemned the school policy of Bishop Mertz in denying the sacrament to children who attended the public schools, today's resolution is a virtual condemnation of the action of the apostolic delegate. The priests who refused to sign the resolution were forced to answer to the roll call and vote yes or no in open synod.
Is Eczema?
It is an agony of agonies.
A torture of tortures.
It is an itching and burning of the skin almost beyond endurance.
It is thousands of pin-headed vesicles filled with an acrid fluid, ever forming, ever bursting, ever flowing upon the raw excoriated skin.
No part of the human skin is exempt.
It tortures, disfigures, and humiliates more than all other skin diseases combined.
Tender babies are among its most numerous victims.
They are often born with it.
Sleep and rest are out of the question.

the gossip nnd scandnl which are eonsplcu *
ous features of newspapers , John Gllmor
Speed iftyss "None of the papers wora
then ( twelve ycnrs ago ) , consldorod to ba
over-nice In their scruples about sensations ,
crimes , scandals or gossip. But. In all four
of the paiiors under consideration there
wore only four nnd one-half columns of gos
sip , nnd ono column of scandal , agitlnst lld f
columns of gossip this year nnd seven and n
luUr columns of scnnnal. The gossip this
year usurps the place of the literary matter
printed in 1831 , nnd articles about crimes
nnd criminals tnko the places formerly oc
cupied by religious nnd scientific matter ,
Twelve ycnrs ago the people In the cast very
justly looked upon the papers In thu more
bustling wostcm cities' with something llko
surprised horror. In those papers , and In
the Chicago papers particularly , quantity
wns the Irst consideration and sensational
ism the next. Indeed , these seemed the
only considerations. Uut In these regards
there has been so gro.it n change In the Now
York papers in twelve years that they now
far surpass : he Chicago papers , whllo thd
Chicago papcrs'lmvu distinctly improved In
n better direction. Particularly In discuss
ing scandals nnd crimes based upon the
breaking of the seventh commundmcnt are
the Chicago newspapers now much more
scrupulous than their Now York contem
poraries. I have been told by Chicago news
editors , nnd 1 have verified the statement ,
that lurid stories of crime and 'scandal ' sent
from proofs of Now York phiwrs by telegraph -

business his experience would bo of value.
The accumulated knowledge of yours would
command a price commensurate with its

llrst ten years of his journalistic career he
has mastered the art of reporting , of copy-
reading , of any routine departmental worlf ,
nnd experience showsthat celerity decreases
with agu after u certain period of years bus
been reached. Joilfnhllsiu Is essentially a
business for young moil. They rush into it

San Francisco's public Is peculiar. It does
not care what London. Paris of Now YorK
thinks. It has Us own mind. It is a great
llrst night city. It turns out on masse , for a
iremiere. No matter what the artist's
reputation maybe throughout the world , the
ictor or musician must begin all over in San
f raucisco. A cordial reception Is given the
irtist on his entrance. Then the nuuicnco
cans hack in its chairs nnd says , "Now show
us what you c.m do. " In tun minutes an ar
tist knows whether or not ho Is to bo a suc
cess on the 1'nclllc coast. Success goes llko
an electric current through an audience , if it
goes nt all. If not , the audience remains
quiet and shuts oft Urn batteries. There is
absolutely no recovery from n first-night
falluro In San Francisco. The public is not
merciless. It is indifferent. If an artist is
a success In San Francisco ho is a great suc
cess , and there Is magic in nn enthusiastic
San Francisco audience. There is no other
comparable to it. It seems to anticipate the
artist's points. It uplifts him and makes
him do his best. In a word , n San Francisco
nuclieiieo Is irresistible. All through Cali
fornia one Hilda the same kind of public as
in Sun Francisco.
Audiences in New England towns are like
peas. They have the same outward appear
ance and yary only In size. They take tholr
amusements ns they live seriously. A Now
Knglund nudlouco is llko n concrcirution ,
deeply attentive nnd religiously inclined. If
a few giddy persons laugli aloud or applaud
enthusiastically they nro stared at nnd
frowned down. Outsltlo people who have
seen turbulent political meetings iu Now
England , when speakers have been greeted
with mingled cheers and hisses , would , bo
amazed nt Iho stolid aspect of most Now
England audiences in places of niuusement.
New Englnndors rise to great occasions
nud opiHjrtunitibi , as all thu world knows ,
but HO far us expressing outward manifesta
tions of artistic pleasure nnd gatUfiietiou is
concerned , they nro tadpoles. Most of the
audiences of Maine , Vermont und Now
Hampshire look weary nnd tired , as though
they hnd done a hard day's work on three
meals of pie. 1 have often thought n regi
men of roust beef or deviled food would
servo to improve some of the sluggish and
unrosponslvo audiences of Now England.

Itnltlmoro , the Moiiumrntnt City.
If I were to ask a bright boy or girl , fresh
from the school-book study of geography , to
toll mo what Baltimore Is famous for , I
should expect this answer : "Baltimore U
known ns the Moiiumont.nl City. " So it Is ,
but that Is only ono distinction. Neverthe

Baltimore has long been called the Monti-
ijicutnl City. I do not know who llrst cm-
ployed the term , nor when it came Into use ,
but as far back as ITO ! there was an obelisk
on the outskirts of the town , commemorating :
Christopher Cdlumbus. It was placed in an
obscure position on private property , and by
and by its purpose wns forgotten , so that It
cnmo to bo regarded ns a monument erected
by the owner of the property to the memory
of his favorite horso. Hecently Us history
has been published , nnd it rantcs today as

There are higher claims to the "monu
mental" epithet. In the very ho.irt of the
city , on nn eminence perhaps 100 foot nbovo
the sea level , there stands n noble marble
column , probably suggested by the well
known plllnrsof Trajan and Marcus Aurullus
In Homo , though not copied from cither of
them. It rises to a height of 100 fcnt , nud Is
surmounted by a colossal statue of George
Washington , designed by Causici- Within
the densely settled part of the city this is i
most picturesque point. "I don't want to be
out of sight of the monument , " ' a llttlo bor
was hoard to cry. as his nurse proposed to
wnool his baby carrlago somewhat farther
than usual from the corner of Mount Vernon
Place and Washington Place , where this
column stands. "I don't want to bo out of
sight of the monument" is the natural im
pulse of the true Bultimorunn. Lot him
travel as widely ns ho will , ho returns to the
Washington monument nnd all that sur
rounds It , with admiration nnd nlfoction ;
ami well ho may , for such a column , in such
a position , nnd surrounded by such dwelling
houses , churches , libraries nud works of
art , would be an ornament to Berlin or to
Paris.
Much nearer the water , close by the now
postoftlce , stands a troph 7 culled the Bnttlo
monument , because it commemorates the
victory nt North Point , where the British
wcro repulsed onthe 12thof September ,
1814. It wns by thcso structures that Balti

City" long before Chnrlestown , Mass. , saw
Hie obelisk completed upon Bunker's Hill ;
long before Crawford's Impressive group was
placed in the state house grounds of Richmond -
mend , Vji. In recent years other monuments
In memory of individuals begin to appear. A
shaft in memory of Colonel Armlstend , the
commander of Fort McHcnryduriiiR its bom
bardment , stands In the southern part of the
city. The Italians have erected In the park
a statue of Columbus , nnd a generous citizen
of Scotch descent is soon to place tlicro a

Knirrjon Hunting Doer.
Iii the August Century W. J. Stilhnati
writes of ' 'The Philosophers' Camp , " n
gathering of congenial spirits in the Adlron-
dacks in 1653 , among whom were Emerson
Lowell , Agassiz. Judge Hoar , Amos Biniioy
nnd Air. Stlllman. The writer thus de
scribes Emerson's attempts at deer slaying :
' It was interesting to see how Einorsou
grow into camp life. As ut flrst ho had re
fused to carry u rifle , nud decided to take
one only for uniformity , so in the early days
of our forest residence ho declined to take
any part in thu hunting or flshlng ; but wo
hnd not been long iu the camp before ho
caught thu temper of thu occasion , and be
gan to desire to Kill his deer. Luck failed
him in the drives in which ho took part , tha
deer always coming into some other watcher ,
nnd wo d'-cidod to try night hunting : i. o. ,
stealing i * to the deer us they browse in
tha pads along the shallow water , carrying
in the bow of the boat n light which blinds
the animal , the lantern throwing nil its light
forward and thu hunter sitting invisible in
the shadow , Wo took the best guldo at tbo
paddle , Emerson takiug the flring seat be
hind the lamp , und I in the middle with my
ritle , ready in case ho misled his shot.
"Thoro is something "weird In silently glid
ing along , a spectral diorama of it-recogniza
ble landscape , with rocks and trees slipping
by Hue phantasms ; for the motion of thn
boat is not distinguishable , and the only
sound is the occasional gratlngof the rushes
ou the bottom of the boat. It is , In fact , the
most exciting form of deer hunting for cer
tain temperaments , and Iho poet was
strongly impressed. The practiced cur of
the guldo soon caujrut the sound of the foot-
full of a doer making his way down to tha
shore , nnd ho turned the glare of tlio lamp
on tha beach , moving dlreutlv on him till ho
was within twenty yards. The signal to lira
was given aml-.rcpoatoil. Hit Emerson could
distinguish nolhlng. 'Shoot 1' 11 nailv whis
pered the guldo In the faintest breath.
'Shoot 1' I repeated nearer. But the door
wns Invisible to him nud wo drlftod to n
boat's length from htm before the nnlmal
took fright , and bolted for the woods , undis
turbed by n hasty shot 1 sent after him , and
wo heard his triumphant whistle nud gallop
dying away in Iho tort-si depths , Emerson
wnsstupcliod. Wo rounded the next point
and found n deer already en thu feeding
ground , 10 repeat tlio oxporlonco. Tbo deer
stoou hraadsldo to him , In full view , in the
shallow water , but straining his vision to the
utmost he could distinguish nothing llko a
deer , ana when wo hud got so near that thu
same resull was Imminent I tired anil the
buck full dead.Well ' said Emerson , 'if
that was a deer I a ( mil ilro at thojlrst
square thing I 500 ; ' but wo saw no moro ibat
night.
"Each disappointment , however , plunged
him moro deeply Into the excitement of the
chase , and he was most anxious to kill hU
doer before lip went homo , unable to resist
the contagion of the passion forj'it. Ho
said to mo one day , 'I must kill a doer before
wo go home , even if the guide has to hold
him by tlio tall. '
"At that season of the year.when itbo deer
arc in their short coat , the body sinks ut
once if shot In the deep water ; and on over
taking the quarry in Iho lake , if the deer-
slayer-.ras not sure of his shot , the guide
used to run the boal alongsldo of It , and
catch it by the tail , when the shol became a
sure ono. As wo hunted ouly when wo
needed the meat , we aid not risk the loss of
the deor. and when a poor shot hold thu cun
the quarry was caucht bv the lull and. killed
in this unsportsmanlike way. That survival
of the earliest iicsston of the primitive man ,
thu passion of the chase , overcame even the
philosophic inlnd of Emerson , once cxiosod |
to the original influences , and ho recognized
bis ancestral bunt. Few of us who llvo uu
active Ufa fail to ba ullracled by this flrst of
ull occupations of thu yet uuclvlllzod man.
Kmersou never bad the grutlficatiou of hit
dcslro ; the deer uvYcr came to him on the
drlvo , nnd hi * repetition ot the night-hunt
WAS net tnoro successful. "

SOCIETY'S HOPELESS STATE
Fashionable Day at the Rosengarten.
AFTERMATH OF THE HELLMAN NUPTIALS
When the Grand Opening of the Jewish temple for the year took place, the church was crowded by representatives from Omaha's society, both in and out of the Hebrew faith. The brides, Miss Helen Hellman and Miss Mabel Hellman, daughters of the late Meyer Hellman, wore remarkably beautiful in their wedding costumes, and it was with the highest degree of pride that the guests saw the two young women, the former, Mrs. Henry H. Sachs, the hand of the Holmes-Shoe Manufacturing company of Chicago, while Miss Mabel Hellman united her fortunes with her former pastor, Dr. William Rosenthal, the spiritual director of one of Omaha's largest Jewish congregations. The wedding was half as grand as more usual for bridesmaids and maids of honor, and the double premiere was celebrated one of Hrabal's most triumphant events when she joined Lohengrin "for better; for worse." The church was beautifully decorated for the occasion, the wealth of flowers being reserved for the Metropolitan club, which hosted most of the guests. After the wedding, a small dinner party was given by Mr. Mayor Hellman for the parents of the brides and grooms. It was a dainty affair, at which the hopes of the parents were said for the future of the young folks, the guests being: Dr. and Mrs. Kosonau of Eriksen, Mrs. Henry H. Sachs, Mrs. Kahn, Mr. and Mrs. Simon Obendorf, Dr. William Rosenthal, Mr. H.B. Sachs, Mr. Edwin Hellman, Miss Mabel Hellman. On Tuesday evening, however, a much larger dinner party was given by Mrs. Hellman for the out-of-town guests, present for the wedding. The table was beautifully decorated with flowers, while a bountiful gold and silver service enriched the board greatly. On this occasion, those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Ben Grossman of St. Louis, Miss Stella Hellman of Chicago, Mrs. H.B. Sachs, Mr. H.D. Sachs, Mr. Charles A. Kahn, Mr. Robert Straus, Mr. Samuel Rothshimer of Cincinnati, Mrs. Silverman of Chicago, Mr. W.L. Calm, Mr. I.W. Weschester of San Francisco, Mr. Jurgen Kaufman of Chicago, Mr. Julius Schuberg of New York, Dr. and Mrs. Nathan Rosenthal, Miss Rosetta Rosenthal of Erie, Dr. Friedman of Denver, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wise, Mr. and Mrs. Meyer Wise of Sioux City, Miss Hellman, Miss Mabel Hellman.
It was a thoroughly congenial crowd of well-known men about town. Mint juleps, mint smashes, cherry cobblers and whisky sours were becoming positively a trial, when George Krug, who is one of the best wine exporters in this section of the foothold, said that his old-time neighbor friend, Eilerman of St. Louis, had invented a drink that was "out of sight." A cocktail made from mint had all the frills of a julep and manufactured from champagne. Everyone wanted to sample the new decoction at once, although one of the convivialists remarked that he thought it very bad form to combine champagne with any other spirit or wine. The majority, however, wanted the drink, and Krug, with his well-known generosity, went out to the mixer of beverages and taught him the fine art of making the Eilerman cocktail. With claret to give it color, a straw or two and garnished with mint, the cocktail caught the fancy of the crowd. It was something new before the adjournment took place, a series of resolutions were passed congratulatory of Mr. Eilerman's work in lifting drinking to the heights of science.
Courtland Beach, which has taken so firm a hold of our people, was the scene of a very pretty dancing party Friday evening, given by Miss Lulu Schenk and Miss Nellie McGahan.
The guests left the residence of Mrs. E.C. Schenk at 10:00 in a large carryall, chaperoned by Mrs. J.A. Schenk, Miss Lulu Schenk and Mrs. I.C. Schenk, while Colonel John A. Creighthon, Mr. J.A. Schenk and Mr. Matt McGinn escorted the party through the grounds after their arrival, giving them a ride on the switch, uncle the merry-go-round and those who desired boats were provided for. The upper portion of the pavilion was reserved for the dancers, while harpists were engaged for the dance music. Refreshments were served at 8:30, the guests leaving about 11 o'clock, the drive home being perfect.
Those enjoying the evening were Misses Nellie Gallagher, Mary Schenk, Alice Furay, Eunice Ducult, Anna Creighthon, Mabel Urban, Alma Keller, Nellie Coad, Emma in Creighthon, Beatrice Seaman, Georgia Krupp, Tosca Hull, Onda Keller; Messrs. Joe Mudd, Lee Miss Schenk, Clarence Gallagher, Mark Coad, Gus More, Fritz Marty, Hort Albertson, Fred Hartman, Alashlor Colpepper, Frank Gallagher, Weir Colman, Alworth Kinster, A.J. Smith, Ed Krug, Charley Furay, Ford Lake, Charles Allen, Philip at Hanscom Park.
Miss Edith Burr and Miss Addie Clinchard gave their friends a delightful picnic Thursday at Hanscom Park, the whole afternoon being given up to a jolly good time. There was music and refreshments, the young people entering into the spirit of the occasion with delight, making the day a never-to-be-forgotten one in their history.
Stella Sweeney, Orlo Abbott, Louis Howland, Fanny Howland, Ethel Mount, Stella Mount, Khenna Jensen, Edda Jensen, Gertrude Waterman, Carrie Waterman, Ada Fitchett, Dora Larp, Johnnie Campbell, Fannie and Alma Alpine. Delicious refreshments were served during the evening.
The St. Matthew's choir was treated to an outing at Courtland Beach last Wednesday. Fishing, boating and music whiled away the afternoon. After a bountiful lunch, they all took a ride on the merry-go-round and then tried different amusements. The ride home in the carryall was particularly enjoyable, the moonlight and the happy faces, together with their sweet voices singing college songs and hymns, rounded out a most delightful picnic. A tent camp in the near future is now being talked of. The choir is doing excellent work lately and the pleasures planned show they are appreciated.
A party at Miss.
Saturday evening of last week Master Albert Thompson, 600 South 35th Street, was a royal host to a number of his young friends. Games were played on the lawn until 10 o'clock, when delicious refreshments were served.

MUSICAL AND THEATER.
The New York summer theatrical season has begun, that is, begun up to the roof.
The Marx Brothers begin their season with "The Fair Robot" in September.
Mrs. Adjeskyn, who is now on her ranch in California, will open her season at Syracuse in October.
Among the ways in which Lillian Russell will appear during the coming season is Victor Hugo's "Lucrecia."
A Bohemian company is to produce Dvorak's opera, "Dimitrij," in the fall. This is to be raved aloud.
William J. Lark, tenor, and his handsome wife, Mary Howe, will make their debut this fall in Italy in standard opera.
Mr. MacDonald of the Boston Music will play the part of an American Indian in the production of "The Ogilthas."
Tom Karl is at his summer home, Hemlock Lake, near Rochester, where Business Mangurg Bowey of the Bostonians is visiting him.
The leading members of the Boston Symphony-orchestra are said to earn from $800 to $7,000 a year, which is three or four times as much as their colleagues in Germany receive.
Miss Emeline Edwards of the James O'Neill company has written a novel entitled, "A Royal Hibernian," which will shortly be published. Allie K > 1 wards is spending the summer at Baraboo, Wis.
Miss Emma Vanders is said to have recovered from her recent illness. She has notified Thomas W. Lenoir that she will be ready to join his company at the beginning of the season on September 1.
Bandmaster Sousa gave a concert last week at Manhattan Beach in memorial of the late Patrick Sherlock Gilmore, that was made up of the compositions and favorite pieces of the dead director.
Baron Hulcy, intendant of the Buda-Pesth opera house, has discovered a wonderful tenor, who is a cobbler, and is called Frank Boak. His figure is said to resemble a classic statue for symmetry, and his fine head is surrounded by an abundance of dark curls.
The Bostonians have accepted for production next season a new opera entitled "The Bland of Plymouth," libretto by A. Green and music by Mr. Thorn of Boston. It is estimated that Baroque, Karl and Mactioud clared $5,000 last season.
Patricia Uosn will begin her season in Chicago early in September. The repertoire for her company includes John D. Gilbert, Joseph Cawthorn, Maurice D.arcy, Odea Stevens, Joseph Newman, Louis Carpenter, D. M. Gregory, Andrew Barnes, Rachel Deveau, Olivia Gates, and Fausto Jacob.
W. T. Carleton, baritone of the Lillian Russell Opera Company, will go abroad this winter for a long visit. He had intended, to take out a show company anywhere, but discovered that the project was not feasible, as the theaters were not receptive in 1894. Mr. Carleton will regroup in Chicago, forming an important summer season.
"Lauro," one of the plays in which Alice B. Clagin and Frederick Poulding are to star next season, in four acts with the scenes laid in St. Petersburg and Paris. The story is of a woman striving with two passions, love for her country and love for the man who has won her heart. The comedy of the play is furnished by a French count and an American girl who is studying for the opera stage.
Alfonso-Hally, the noted actor of the Comédie Française, has been giving his views upon the tragedy of "Hamlet" in London, where he is now playing. He believes that Hamlet began by feigning madness and ended by being really insane. He does not take the ideal view of Ophelia, but characterizes her as a British courtesan, placed near Hamlet by his enemies for his further undoing.
During her tour of America the coming season, Alfonso Patricia will sing in Chicago, the engagement beginning at the Auditorium in January. Mancini Alessandro Mayer has engaged Mme. Fabbin and Signori Bulassini, Mascheroni, Novara, and Loly to support the diva. Signor Anitali will, of course, be Patricia's musical director. Nicolai will accompany his wife on the tour, and it is probable that he will sing at some of her concerts.
It appears from well-authenticated reports that DuBois has enjoyed a remarkable success in London with "Fedora" and "Camille," but the other plays in which she appeared did not draw well. It is probable that she will return to this country in the fall, and it is certain that she will play under the management of the Rosenthal's, who took the risk of bringing her here.
The attraction at Boyd's next Tuesday and Wednesday nights will be the best of all the French comedies, "Jane." Its success last year is well remembered by our theater-goers, as the engagement was most prosperous and pleasant. Aisle Johanna Yeaman, whose assumption of the title role has excited no little comment, is at the head of the company, and she will be greeted by many admirers. The story of the play can be profitably recalled at this time. A gay young London bachelor has been living for three years on the interest of an estate bequeathed to him on condition that he marry. This estate is in the hands of a trustee, who pays the young man the income because the latter has informed him that he has taken a wife. The young man is unduly extravagant, and one fine day the trustee resolves to come to London and remonstrate with him. When the trust funds of his coming he is in a dilemma. He has no wife, but he bribes the housemaid, Jane, to impersonate her. Jane has just married William, the manservant, whom she persuades, for sentimental reasons, to consent to the deception. A baby is borrowed, and all manners of absurd devices are employed to deceive the confiding old trustee. The fun is fast and furious through three acts, and finally explanations are made and all are happy. The sale of seats opens tomorrow morning.
"The Soudan," one of the most striking military dramas ever produced in this country, will be the attraction at Boyd's theater on Friday and Saturday, August. "The Soudan" is the next play after "Jane."
Wonderland and Bijou theaters will be called the People's Theater next season and will reopen on August, under the management of W. B. Day.
At Wonderland and Bijou theaters tonight, Brownie Wallace, the assistant manager, and A. L. Blaufuss, the musical director, will be the recipients of a commemorative benefit. A lengthy list of volunteers will appear, amongst the features being Mr. Jules Lombard, the great basso profundo. Miss Bertha Steinbach, the operatic soprano, Mr. Hans Albert, the wonderful violinist, Mr. and Mrs. Julius Festner in their incomparable zither duets, and from the professional ranks will appear C. O. Kllpatrick, the trick bicyclist, the LaHoso brothers, Jack Tall Edson Suits, William Farrell, the clog dancer, the Silver Tone quartet, Jack Crosby on the juggling rings, James Alarcus, comedian of the Noble company, William McCoy of the Wolves of New York company, Mattie Hurlo, a phenomenal child performer, and James and Gus White, society sketch team.
One of the coming attractions for September is the "World's Carnival," to be given in Boyd's new theater on the 8th, 20th, and 27th inst. The carnival will be participated in by about 100 society people of Omaha and Council Bluffs. It is to be given under the auspices of the Nebraska Home for the Aged. Prof. W. K. Chambers has charge of the carnival, which ensures thorough rendition. All the nations of the world will be introduced in costume, interspersed with dancing and other specialties.
Cheapest way to visit the "World's fair," stereopticon show at Courtland bench.
An Irish Fair.
Immediately before the adjournment of the National convention held in Philadelphia in 1880, writer John F. Finerty in Dougherty's Almanac, a member proposed that the next convention should be held in some city, afterwards to be on the first Tuesday in September.
Thereupon 'Tom' Haire, a respectable, clerical-looking, solemn merchant from Quincy, Ill., who had not previously made himself heard, arose, and, in a deep, important voice, called out:
"Mr. President!"
"The gentleman from Illinois," said O'Mahony in recognition.
"I move, as an amendment to the gentleman's motion," continued "Tom," in a tone that would have honored a veteran undertaker, "that the next convention be held on the first Tuesday in September, except it should happen to fall on a Sunday!"
Bedlam is nowhere to the gentleman that ensued, and, to the multitude's wonder, "Tom," who was severely serious, would not recognize the blunder he had made for a long time. Finally, he realized it and a look of supreme disgust came over his rubicund countenance. "I'll never come to one of these things again," said he in quint dudgeon. "'Tis no place for a businessman. The cobbler should stick to his last and the grocery man to his weights and measures."
The death of Min.
In some parts of England, a queer custom is still in vogue, which is repeated whenever a death occurs. It is called the "bitterness of death," and whenever someone in a house dies, a piece of bread is laid on the breast of the corpse, which some passer-by is persuaded to eat for a good sum of money. In this way, it is believed that the sins of the dead are transferred to the living, who in turn can show them off, together with his own, by a similar ceremony when his life comes to an end. On the Sandwich Islands, the widows have the names of their deceased husbands tattooed on their tongues, but it is not known how often they turn over the savory morsel of wifely devotion when they marry again.
Imbuing stemness.
The material in which imitation diamonds are produced is called amaride, from the name of its inventor, a German jeweler, who flourished at the beginning of the present century. It is perfectly colorless and transparent glass, or rather crystal, of irreproachable purity, composed of rock crystal, or of white sand, mixed with oxide of lead, arsenical acids and other ingredients. Its preparation demands infinite care and a multitude of precautions to avoid the possibility of the slightest flaw or bubble being introduced into the mass from which are then cut the also gems in the proportions desired. Small or medium sized diamonds produce a much better effect than do large ones.
Pandering to bad tastes, marked contrast between Eastern and Western newspapers. The tone of the latter decidedly better. The character and contents of newspapers and the men who make them is the subject of several instructive papers in the current Forum. The writers are practical newsmen - men, thoroughly conversant with newspaper life and conduct. Concerning the gossip and scandal which are conspicuous features of newspapers, John Gillmore Speed says: "None of the papers were then (twelve years ago), considered to be over-nice in their scruples about sensations, crimes, scandals or gossip. But, in all four of the papers under consideration there were only four and one-half columns of gossip, and one column of scandal, against eleven and a half columns of gossip this year and seven and a half columns of scandal. The gossip this year usurps the place of the literary matter printed in 1831, and articles about crimes and criminals take the places formerly occupied by religious and scientific matter.
Twelve years ago the people in the east justly looked upon the papers in the more bustling western cities' with something like surprised horror. In those papers, and in the Chicago papers particularly, quantity was the first consideration and sensationalism the next. Indeed, these seemed the only considerations. But in these regards there has been such a great change in the New York papers in twelve years that they now far surpass the Chicago papers, while the Chicago papers have distinctly improved in a better direction. Particularly in discussing scandals and crimes based upon the breaking of the seventh commandment are the Chicago newspapers now much more scrupulous than their New York contemporaries. I have been told by Chicago newspaper editors, and I have verified the statement, that lurid stories of crime and scandal sent from proofs of New York papers by telegraph to Chicago almost invariably have to be toned down before they are considered fit for publication in the western city.
The most pathetic figure in Journalism, writes J.V. Keller in the Forum, is the man who has grown old in its service. Through no fault of his own, he finds himself without a vocation when he most needs it. In any other business his experience would be of value. The accumulated knowledge of years would command a price commensurate with its worth. Here it is valueless, because in the first ten years of his journalistic career he has mastered the art of reporting, of copy-reading, of any routine departmental work, and experience shows that celerity decreases with age after a certain period of years has been reached. Journalism is essentially a business for young men. They rush into it by hundreds, they remain in it by tens. Ninety percent of the men who enter Journalism leave it before they become old. They remain in it only long enough to make it a stepping stone to something else less exacting, less limited in remuneration, less insecure in employment.
On the staff of the daily newspaper with which I am connected there is only one maury over fifty years of age, and the average of the employees in the editorial department is less than thirty-five. A canvass of other metropolitan newspaper offices will show but a slight variation from these figures. There are more old men doing messenger service for telegraph companies than reporting for the daily newspapers.
The majority of an audience everywhere is, I think, composed of women, whose opinions and tastes are the decisive arbiters of an artist's ability and popularity. Women are the artistic lovers of audiences, writes George Hiddle in Dondhays'. Men are the immovable fulcrums. Were it not for the enthusiasm of women, the American audience would be as dull as lead. The average man takes no interest in art and is bored if he has to make a mental effort beyond the accumulation of cash.
San Francisco's public is peculiar. It does not care what London, Paris, or New York thinks. It has its own mind. It is a great first night city. It turns out on masse, for a premiere. No matter what the artist's reputation may be throughout the world, the actor or musician must begin all over in San Francisco. A cordial reception is given the artist on his entrance. Then the audience takes in its chairs and says, "Now show us what you can do." In ten minutes an artist knows whether or not he is to be a success on the Pacific coast. Success goes like an electric current through an audience, if it goes at all. If not, the audience remains quiet and shuts off the batteries. There is absolutely no recovery from a first-night failure in San Francisco. The public is not merciless. It is indifferent. If an artist is a success in San Francisco, he is a great success, and there is magic in an enthusiastic San Francisco audience. There is no other comparable to it. It seems to anticipate the artist's points. It uplifts him and makes him do his best. In a word, a San Francisco audience is irresistible. All through California one finds the same kind of public as in San Francisco.
Audiences in New England towns are like peas. They have the same outward appearance and vary only in size. They take their amusements as they live, seriously. A New England audience is like a congregation, deeply attentive and religiously inclined. If a few giddy persons laugh aloud or applaud enthusiastically, they are stared at and frowned down. Outsiders who have seen turbulent political meetings in New England, when speakers have been greeted with mingled cheers and hisses, would be amazed at the stolid aspect of most New England audiences in places of amusement. New Englanders rise to great occasions and opportunities, as all the world knows, but so far as expressing outward manifestations of artistic pleasure and appreciation is concerned, they are tadpoles. Most of the audiences of Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire look weary and tired, as though they had done a hard day's work on three meals of pie. I have often thought a regiment of roasted beef or deviled food would serve to improve some of the sluggish and unresponsive audiences of New England.
How the Buffalo Range
When the first white settlers landed in Virginia, as Theodore Roosevelt in the Forum, the buffalo ranged vast areas from the Alleghenies almost to the sea coast, westward to the dry deserts beyond the Rockies, northward to the Great Slave Lake and southward to Chihuahua. It was a beast of the forests, the mountains, in the Alleghenies no less than in the Rockies; but its true home was the prairies, and the high plains. Across, these it roamed, hither and thither, in herds of enormous, incredible magnitude; they were so large that they covered the waving grassland for hundreds of square leagues, and when on the march, they occupied days and nights in passing a given point. But the millions of shaggy-limbed wild cattle vanished with remarkable and melancholy rapidity before the inroads of the white hunters and the steady march of the oncoming south. Now they are on the point of extinction. Two or three hundred are left in the largest national game preserve, the Yellowstone park; and it is said that others still remain in the wintry isolation of Athabasca. Elsewhere only a few individuals exist, probably considerably less than half a hundred, scattered in small parties in the most remote and inaccessible portions of the Rockies. A bison bull is the largest American animal. His huge bulk, his short, curved black horns, the shaggy man clothing his great hump and shoulders, give him a look of ferocity which his conduct belies. Yet he is truly a grand and noble beast, and his loss from our prairies and forests is keenly regretted by the lover of nature and of wild life as by the hunter.
Divine Lights of Morocco's Sultan.
"I am the caliph of the Lord; I am the captain and commander of the faithful, the chosen one of the prophet; I am the king of kings; I am a prince in Paris; then obey me without a murmur, as my camels do." This is the magnificence of the Sultan of Morocco, and it is generally admired, says Stephen Bosch in the Century. It is refreshing to find a country where not only has the divine right of the father been acknowledged, but where yet it has never been questioned. Now and again a pretender to the throne has turned up, and the annals of Morocco are red with stories of civil war, but the pretender has never been a revolutionary; he has always based his contention upon a more divine right, and the albedo succession of a more generous and direct flow of blood of the prophet in his veins. The loyalty of the people toward the monarch partakes of the nature of adoration, when the battle is fought and won, and the soldiers who have fallen sorely wounded are brought off the field and placed in a circle around the white pavilion in which the mysterious monarch, as an approachable and invisible in his camp as in his court, then, as said, the dread sultan walks up and down among them, smiling with silent pity upon their agony; and they, the poor ignorant kabyles of the valleys, and the nomad horsemen from the desert, cry out until their cries give place to the rattling of death: "Allah preserve our sultan" ("God prolong the days of our lord"). And this, too, is the cry of the malefactor as he goes toward death or mutilation, and these are the words of the disgraced vizier who, when for purposes of political necessity he must disappear or be effaced, takes the poison from the hands of his precious sultan.
The mantle of the prophet of Medina that he wears must indeed be broad and ample, for it is called upon to cover a multitude of sins, that is, viewed from our standpoint, but the Moors believe that, try as he may, the sultan can do no wrong. He is like the saint I saw in Tangier who spent his entire time in drinking gin and whisky. One might think that this saint was drinking too much of strong waters, but such is not the license; at least it has never appeared to the Moors in this light, for he is such a holy man, they say, that the moment the strong waters come in contact with his person, they lose all their fiery qualities, and become innocent mere water, suitable for human consumption.
Baltimore, the Monumental City.
If I were to ask a bright boy or girl, fresh from the school-book study of geography, to tell me what Baltimore is famous for, I should expect this answer: "Baltimore is known as the Monumental City." So it is, but that is only one distinction. Nevertheless, we may begin our survey of the city with this phrase in mind, and see to what loads us, says a writer in St. Nicholas. Baltimore has long been called the Monumental City. I do not know who first employed the term, nor when it came into use, but as far back as 1814 there was an obelisk on the outskirts of the town, commemorating Christopher Columbus. It was placed in an obscure position on private property, and by and by its purpose was forgotten, so that it came to be regarded as a monument erected by the owner of the property to the memory of his favorite horse. Recently its history has been published, and it stands today as first in time, though not in art, among the American memorials of the Genovesan navigator.
There are higher claims to the "monumental" epithet. In the very heart of the city, on an eminence perhaps 100 feet above the sea level, there stands a noble marble column, probably suggested by the well-known pillars of Trajan and Marcus Aurelius in Rome, though not copied from either of them. It rises to a height of 100 feet, and is surmounted by a colossal statue of George Washington, designed by Causic. Within the densely settled part of the city, this is the most picturesque point. "I don't want to be out of sight of the monument," a little boy was heard to cry, as his nurse proposed to wheel his baby carriage somewhat farther than usual from the corner of Mount Vernon Place and Washington Place, where this column stands. "I don't want to be out of sight of the monument" is the natural impulse of the true Baltimorean. Let him travel as widely as he will, he returns to the Washington monument and all that surrounds it, with admiration and affection; and well he may, for such a column, in such a position, and surrounded by such dwelling houses, churches, libraries, and works of art, would be an ornament to Berlin or to Paris.
Much nearer the water, close by the new post office, stands a trophy called the Battle monument, because it commemorates the victory at North Point, where the British were repulsed on the 12th of September, 1814. It was by these structures that Baltimore gained its name of "the Monumental City" long before Charleston, Mass., saw the obelisk completed upon Bunker's Hill; long before Crawford's impressive group was placed in the state house grounds of Richmond, Va. In recent years other monuments in memory of individuals have begun to appear. A shaft in memory of Colonel Armstrong, the commander of Fort McHenry during its bombardment, stands in the southern part of the city. The Italians have erected in the park a statue of Columbus, and a generous citizen of Scottish descent is soon to place there a statue of William Wallace. The bronze memorials of Tennyson and Peabody will soon be spoken of.
Equinox Hunting Deer.
In the August Century, W. J. Stillman writes of "The Philosophers' Camp," a gathering of congenial spirits in the Adirondacks in 1853, among whom were Emerson, Lowell, Agassiz, Judge Hoar, Amos Binney, and Mr. Stillman. The writer thus describes Emerson's attempts at deer slaying: "It was interesting to see how Emerson grew into camp life. As at first he had refused to carry a rifle, and decided to take one only for uniformity, so in the early days of our forest residence he declined to take any part in the hunting or fishing; but we had not been long in the camp before he began to desire to kill his deer. Luck failed him in the drives in which he took part, the deer always coming into some other watcher, and we decided to try night hunting: I, in the stern of the boat, with a light which blinded the animal, the lantern throwing all its light forward and the hunter sitting invisible in the shadow. We took the best guide at the paddle, Emerson taking the firing seat behind the lamp, and I in the middle with my rifle, ready in case he misled his shot."
"There is something weird in silently gliding along, a spectral diorama of the recognizable landscape, with rocks and trees slipping by like phantasms; for the motion of the boat is not distinguishable, and the only sound is the occasional grating of the rushes on the bottom of the boat. It is, in fact, the most exciting form of deer hunting for certain temperaments, and the poet was strongly impressed. The practiced ear of the guide soon caught the sound of the footsteps of a deer making his way down to the shore, and he turned the glare of the lamp onto the beach, moving directly onto him till he was within twenty yards. The signal to fire was given immediately, but Emerson could distinguish nothing. 'Shoot!' he anxiously whispered the guide in the faintest breath. 'Shoot!' I repeated nearer. But the deer was invisible to him and we drifted to a boat's length from him before the animal took fright, and bolted for the woods, undisturbed by a hasty shot I sent after him, and we heard his triumphant whistle and gallop dying away into the forest depths, Emerson astonished. We rounded the next point and found a deer already on the feeding ground, to repeat the experience. The deer stood broadside to him, in full view, in the shallow water, but straining his vision to the utmost he could distinguish nothing like a deer, and when we had got so near that the same result was imminent I fired and the buck fell dead. 'Well,' said Emerson, 'if that was a deer, I aim at the first square thing I saw at 500 yards; ' but we saw no more that night."
"Each disappointment, however, plunged him more deeply into the excitement of the chase, and he was most anxious to kill his deer before he went home, unable to resist the contagion of the passion for the hunt. He said to me one day, 'I must kill a deer before we go home, even if the guide has to hold him by the tail.'"
"At that season of the year, when the deer are in their short coat, the body sinks at once if shot in the deep water; and when overtaking the quarry in the lake, if the deer-slayer was not sure of his shot, the guide used to run the boat alongside of it, and catch it by the tail, when the shot became a sure one. As we hunted only when we needed the meat, we did not risk the loss of the deer, and when a poor shot held the course the quarry was caught by the tail and killed in this unsportsmanlike way. That survival of the earliest passion of the primitive man, the passion of the chase, overcame even the philosophic mind of Emerson, once exposed to the original influences, and he recognized his ancestral blood; few of us who live an active life fail to be affected by this first of all occupations of the yet uncivilized man. Emerson never had the gratification of his desire; the deer always came to him on the drive, and his repetition of the night-hunt was not more successful."
In an article for the August Century, an old friend of the Spanish Princess contributes a reminiscent article on the life of the princess in Florida. She mentions the following incident which occurred in 1800, when Madame Mural, having suddenly become ill with symptoms resembling those of paralysis, a voyage to Europe was prescribed by her physicians:
Again she was received by her relatives (Louis Napoleon and his family) with an aved welcome. She related many incidents of the southern confederacy to the emperor and empress, logothete with the knowledge, experiences, and privations the south was called upon to bear. The princess asked the emperor how he felt so much for the south, why he had not supported the confederacy. His reply was: "Complimentary, you all had my warmest sympathy and highest regard for your success; but on account of slavery I did not dare to send an army to your assistance. Had I done so, I should have had a mob in Paris." Madame Mural spoke of the emperor as a person of lovely character, being constantly employed in deeds of benevolence, even visiting the hospitals. The princess, whom she spoke of with much affection, was a most interesting youth.
Have you insured?
If not, now is the time to provide yourself and family with a bottle of Chamberlain's colic, cholera, and diarrhea remedy as an insurance against any serious results from an attack of bowel complaint during the summer months. It is almost certain to be needed and should be procured at once. No other remedy can take its place or do its work. 50-cent and $1.00 bottles for sale by druggists.

The French government, controlling the pearl islands of the Pacific, has recently prohibited the use of diving apparatus by pearl hunters. This is because there has been such a demand for the beautiful pearls of the Pacific that the supply is being depleted, and in a little while apparently there would be none left.
There are many misconceptions about aluminum that are widespread and which it seems difficult to correct in the public mind. Aluminum is not, section for section, a very strong metal. It is only one-half as strong as wrought iron. It has a very low elastic limit. It is not rigid, but bends under a transverse strain rapidly. It is in its alloys that its utility commences to appear. With 8 to 12 percent of copper, or aluminum bronze, we have one of the most dense, finest-grained, and strongest metals known.
One of the silver mining companies of Montana has made a most reasonable proposition to its men. It is that their daily wages shall be regulated by the market price of silver bullion in gold. Thus if the silver is over 80 cents an ounce they are to get $3.50 a day; if it is between 75 and 80 cents, $3 per day; if it is between 60 and 75 cents, $2.75 a day; and if it falls below 60 cents, then only $2 per day. This is an application to silver mining of the 'sliding scale' plan which has been adopted by some iron and steel manufacturers, and can be carried out with great ease.
A new form of vestibule car has been designed by the Pullman company. There is no platform to this car. As the sides extend the full length, four lists extend from the floor to the roof at each end; two of the posts are corner posts and the other two form the sides of the passageway through which the passenger steps from one car to another. The steps remain in the same position as on other cars, but are kept covered by a trap door except at stations. There is a door on each side of the vestibule which is hinged at one side and opened and closed by means of a small hand lever fastened near the roof. When the car is opened from the inside, the trap door is first lifted and the vestibule door then swung open in front of it. The platforms equipped with this vestibule give additional room to the car. Large windows, four in number, light up the interior and make it an attractive place for a passenger to enjoy a smoke before turning in at night.

An important geological expedition to Mount Shasta has just been made by Dr. James Perrin Smith, assistant professor of paleontology at Stanford University, assisted by five students connected with that institution. Several specimens of fossils hitherto unfamiliar to California were discovered, and a large collection illustrating the paleontology of the entire region was gathered, which will be displayed in the university museum.
There is a man in New Hampshire named William C. Todd who holds to the theory that he is benefiting his fellow creature when he provides abundant supplies of newspapers within their reach. He lately provided for an expenditure of $3,000 a year for newspapers for the Boston public library and it has since been discovered that he recently made a similar provision for the public library of Newburyport.
The scholarships offered by the Vassar Students' Aid society for the year 1888-89 have been won in competitive examination by Miss Florence Any Crosby of New Rochelle, N. Y., and Miss Adelaide Claflin of Cleveland, O. The former receives the scholarship offered by the general society and the latter that offered by the Cleveland branch. The number of young women now admitted to Vassar under the auspices of this society is seventeen. In every case, the scholarship offered is received as a loan by the successful competitor.
Flux Cured All Urine Weakness.
Dr. Chase, Hrodell Co., N. C. One of our customers had been troubled with flux for two weeks when I persuaded him to try Chamberlain's colic, cholera and diarrhea remedy. He says that five doses of it cured him.
He kept it to himself, however, until the last thing. It was 11:30 by the clock, and it was not a very rapid clock. "Miss Mollie," he said, tremulously, "I am going away tomorrow." "Are you?" She baldly with the thoughtlessness of girlhood as she gazed wistfully at the clock. "Yes," he replied. "Are you sorry?" "Yes, very sorry," she murmured. "I thought you might go away this evening," then she gazed at the clock wistfully and he told her good night.

HFE STORY OF EVA LEWIS

Chicago "Waif.
HER FOSTER FATHER'S ' URGE FORTUNE
Kit mid ml Litigation Slio l < Awarded
n Shiiro or the INtnto by the Lnn-
cunlor County Dis
trict Court.
Lracowr , Aug. 5 , [ Special to TUB BCE. ]
Judge Lansing , who presides over the
county , court for Lancaster county , wrote the
Closing chapter of a llfo romance this morn-
Jng by awarding Mrs. Eva Lewis , the foster
child of Jason G. Miller , the sum of $70-
. _ IffiSTt. The case Is ono of the most promi-
licnt that has over found a place in the an
nals of the courts of Lancaster county. The
wealth of Jason Miller , the story of his
adoption of Eva Cavcngar , a Chicago waif ,
Ills subsequent treatment of her , her mar
riage and the old man's efforts to deprive
her of her legal rights , all combine to iur-
nlsh the material for ono of the most roman
tic stories In real llfo that has over been
published In tha history of Nebraska. The
- itory could very easily bo adapted to the re
quirements of a novel of the modern roman
tic school , and the fact that nil the chanters
would bo taken from llfo would in no wise
Qotruci from its interest.
The heroine of the story was born in Chicago
cage In the yoAV 1807. At the ugo of il years
pho was cither bereft of her parents by
death or heartlessly abandoned , fiho was
placed In the Foundling's home at Chicago ,
and it was there that Mlllor found hor. Her
real name was Eliza Jane Cuvenger. Jason
Miller visited the homo for the purpose of
adopting a child , ana ho was at once at-
uuctod by the little girl that ufterward be
came known all her llfo us Eva Miller , After
Bomo negotiation with the authorities of thu
homo he consented to adopt her. In order
to moot the requirements of the institution
ho was asked to make n full statement of
his ilnanolnl condition , otc. Ho did BO , und
before taking the child he slirued an agree *
Iiiont to adopt the llttlo ono , give her his
name , treat her as his own child and make
her his heir.
It was under such circumstances that the
child came to the homo of Jnson Miller In
IMavtsmouth , Nob. She was renamed Eva
Jillllcr and was baptised under her new
name. She ocoamo known as Jason Miller's
Daughter. To strangers she was Introduced
avthuonlv daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mlllor.
As Miss Eva Mlllor she grew into young
womanhood , and not a shadow of doubt was
over permitted to cross her mind that she
vras not to bo the solo heir of her foster par
ents ,

So far everything ran smoothly iu the life
of the Chicago waif. She was everywhere

She wus educated and | > osscssod of many of

he did not differ materially from the clay
of which other equally charming and accom

by the simple fact that she fell lu love with
a young man every way her equal except la
the esteem of her foster parents.
At this point in hor. llfo she llrst cncoun-

married the young man of her choice and the
Id man made a will in which ho attempted
o deprive her of all share in his estate.
Jason Miller died on October S , 1801 , at
-os Angeles , Cal. , leaving an estate valued
at $250,000. His sole survivor was his wire ,
no children having boon born to them in all
ho years of their wedded life. The will , in
which ho loft his entire estate to his wife
uid other beneficiaries , contained no refer
ence to his foster child. When the will was
admitted to probate Eva Miller , who. in the
mo.uitimo , had become Eva Lewis , having
married the man for whom she braved her
Father's displeasure , commenced a suit to
lave the instrument set aside on the grounds
.hat in depriving her of her Just share of her
'oster father's cstato tlio agreement under
vhich she had boon adopted had been vlp-
atcd. She claimed damages from the eitnfto
.o the amount of $125,000 , that amount being
.ho share that should have accrued to her
under the agreement of her adoption.
Closing ; Cliuptcr of tlm Story.
It xvill bo unnecessary to follow the case
.hrough the tedious channels of the litlqa-
lon which followed. SulUco It to say that
.ho case has been under advisement for
tome time and the decision of the county
udgc was made a part of the records at
loon today. Judge Lansing's ilocis' ni is a
cngthy ono. Every point lntho cont.-ovcrsy
: ias been carefully examined in the light of
: ho best authorities attainable , In closing
nis decision the judge said :
"Tho proof shows this child to have been
bright , affectionate , gentle and prepossess
ing. She won Elder Miller's affections at
once. If ho had not taken her it is fair to
presume that some ono else would have done
10 , and would have kept his agreement. But
lOldcr Miller takes her , takes her to his
lomo In Nebraska , tells his wife what ho
las done , rears and educator her , has her
Baptized In his own name , treats
uid introduces her as his child.
Everything goes smoothly on until
the child , grown to womanhood , exhibits the
most natur.il trait of young women she ac
cepts the attention of a lover , cntortulns his
proposal , and obedient and dutiful , as thereof
roof shows her to have boon heretofore , in-
Formi her father of the fact. The old man
now , for the first time , finds her refractory ,
and despite his authority and despite the
nfToctlon she had always berne ami still born
him , his off arts to crush out her passion and
to prevent her accomplishing woman's des
tiny of wlfehood and motherhood , ho fulls.
It is then that , irritated by her opposition
ivnd the frustration of his plaus , ho dUplay.i
the coarser chnr.icteristirs of his nature.
Ho brutally and falsely tolls her that her
mother was a prostitute and her father un
known and that she was unworthy to bo the
wife of an honest man , I say falsely , because -
cause these things were not true and ha
know it ; know that she was the child of
honest parents. Finding this also to full ho
casts her off , and having it her oil Ignores
his agreement , mlv though possessed of nit
estate worth if200,000 , cuts her oil without a
shilling. "

Another sensational suit growing out ot
the failure of the Capital National bank was
tiled in district court today. It was com-
inencod by Eugcno Hallott , who was a do-

HASTINGS , Aupr. 5. [ Special to THE DEE. ]
On last Sunday THE CUE had a statement
mndo by tha merchants ot Omaha as to the
prevalence of hard times la that city. The
Hastings correspondent of TUB BBB Inter
viewed a number of the leading firms of the
Queen City and found that nearly all were
well satlslled with the present situation ,
and believe that the cry of "hard times" Is
the result of imagination more than of any
real effect the proposed change in the finan
cial j > ollcy pf the government may have.
These are some of thu expressions i
Dry < iood .
William Rraah , of Walbaah & Brach Out-
trade for a little time past hus been some
what quiet , but this situation I ascribe , not
BO much to any financial disturbances , ns to
uneasiness concerning the outlook for crops.
No ona is asking for credit , aud so in one
sense thu linaiiciul stringency hus affected
us. The ones who would keep mouoy in cir
culation haven't it.
Julius Weinbonr , Manager A , J. Unna I
cannot sco but what our trade is just as
peed now ns it over wn . Money .sc-oins
uaay , aud aside from u few croakers who
would complain if they owned the heavens ,
all the farmers seem well satisfied with the
prospects.
Mr. A , Pickcns of A. Pickcns & Bon Com
pany I think that thU financial crisis Is
more than one-half scare , although there
may bo und probably U some foundation for
it. Our trade for the year has been above
the average , hut for July a little more llirht.
Luclc of confidence is the probable trouble.
J , N , Fountain , Furniture Thoru has been
no grea * . fulling off of business in the furni
ture lino. It is always very quiet at this
time of year , but the previous few mouths
will compare favorably with these of previ
ous years

ary. July and August uro always dull months
in the shoe business , but this year my tnido
hus bouu fully us good as before. Thu prc -
cut crisis has not affected me , and I believe
It simply to bo the result of the uncertainty
of the public to the probable legislation or
the tariff nnd financial problems ,
M. B , Uolllns , "The Fair. " My trade has
been fully us good as over nnd in fact is bat

July is always a light month , and at present

cauao for complaint.

been very low for some time , and so whlla
our wholesale tnule is just as extensive , it
does not amount to as much ns it formerly
did. Our retail trade has boon very good
and we cnunot complain of hard times.
C. L. Stone , Agricultural Implements
Trade for the year has bnen good , and for
July excellent. While not quite as largo as
last year at this time , I ascribe this to the
partial failure of small grain. Collections
uro good ,
Hastings Implement Company Our trade
has boon butter than over before , and wo
ncvor had so much cash trado. Men whom
wo formerly never could glvo time enough ,
now insist on paying cash oven before trying ,
tholr purchases. This season wo have .sold
eight 01 ten hinders for cash , when formerly
wo have thought wo were in luck if wo got
ready money for ono or two. Collections are
reasonable.
Tnmblo , Dlackman & Alexander Our
June grocery trade was 4 per cent bettor
than Juno of the previous year. Similarly
our July trade w.is 20 per cent above that for
IS'.CJ , and the rest of the year in proportion.
Collections are good.

Company Our trade for the year has been
fair , and although lately wo have been doing
a very light business , yet wo are now fur
nishing a good m.uiy estimates for outsldo
parties. It Is juHt to say that the lumber
business is always very quickly affected by
any cr.y of hard times.
J. II. Hanoy & Co. , Manufacturers of Har
ness Our trade for the year up to Juno I
wus way ahead of what it was last year.
Suddenly there was a falling off , and until
the 1st of this month out * bnsimm was com
paratively dull. Wo ascribe this to a gen
eral-feeling of uneasiness , and are certain
that if the people can bo convinced that
thcro Is no cause fnr alarm , trade will soon
pick up again , Wo think the bottom has
been touched.
Anson < fc Pratt , Plumbers Wo can have
no cause for complaint us to the existing
Htato of affairs. Our tradohim been bettor

The Story of Eva Lewis
Patrician History of the Experience of a Chicago "Waif."
HER FOSTER FATHER'S UNJUST FORTUNE
Kidnapped and Litigated, She is Awarded
a Share of the Estate by the Lancaster County District Court.
Lancaster, Aug. 5, [Special to THE BEE.] Judge Lansing, who presides over the county court for Lancaster county, wrote the Closing chapter of a life romance this morning by awarding Mrs. Eva Lewis, the foster child of Jason G. Miller, the sum of $70,000. The case is one of the most prominent that has ever found a place in the annals of the courts of Lancaster county. The wealth of Jason Miller, the story of his adoption of Eva Cavenger, a Chicago waif, his subsequent treatment of her, her marriage, and the old man's efforts to deprive her of her legal rights, all combine to furnish the material for one of the most romantic stories in real life that has ever been published in the history of Nebraska. The story could very easily be adapted to the requirements of a novel of the modern romantic school, and the fact that all the characters would be taken from life would in no wise detract from its interest.
The heroine of the story was born in Chicago in the year 1807. At the age of five, she was either bereft of her parents by death or heartlessly abandoned, she was placed in the Foundling's home at Chicago, and it was there that Miller found her. Her real name was Eliza Jane Cavenger. Jason Miller visited the home for the purpose of adopting a child, and he was at once attracted by the little girl that afterward became known all her life as Eva Miller. After some negotiations with the authorities of the home, he consented to adopt her. In order to meet the requirements of the institution, he was asked to make a full statement of his financial condition, etc. He did so, and before taking the child, he signed an agreement to adopt the little one, give her his name, treat her as his own child, and make her his heir.
It was under such circumstances that the child came to the home of Jason Miller in Omagh, Neb. She was renamed Eva Miller and was baptized under her new name. She became known as Jason Miller's Daughter. To strangers, she was introduced as the adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Miller. As Miss Eva Miller, she grew into young womanhood, and not a shadow of doubt was ever permitted to cross her mind that she was not to be the sole heir of her foster parents.
All was Smooth Sailing:
So far, everything ran smoothly in the life of the Chicago waif. She was everywhere honored as the daughter of wealthy parents. She was educated and possessed of many of the refinements and accomplishments that make young womanhood attractive. That she did not differ materially from the day of other equally charming and accomplished young ladies is made amply proved by the simple fact that she fell in love with a young man every way her equal except in the esteem of her foster parents.
At this point in her life, she encountered the opposition of Jason Miller. The old man objected to her lover, although there was nothing in the eyes of the world to suggest that he was either ineligible or unsuited to the young lady. Miller was a devout Christian and an enthusiast in the question of foreign missions. Naturally, he had dreamed of making his foster child a missionary to some foreign shore. His plans met with no opposition until the girl happened to fall in love. Then the old man's heart turned against her, He threatened, he bargained, and he threatened again, but all to no avail, and the upshot of it all was that Eva married, BLANKETS $1.55.

married the young man of her choice and the old man made a will in which he attempted to deprive her of all share in his estate.
Jason Miller died on October 5, 1801, at Los Angeles, Calif., leaving an estate valued at $250,000. His sole survivor was his wife, no children having been born to them in all the years of their wedded life. The will, in which he left his entire estate to his wife and other beneficiaries, contained no reference to his foster child. When the will was admitted to probate, Eva Miller, who, in the meantime, had become Eva Lewis, having married the man for whom she braved her Father's displeasure, commenced a suit to have the instrument set aside on the grounds that in depriving her of her just share of her foster father's estate, the agreement under which she had been adopted had been violated. She claimed damages from the estate to the amount of $125,000, that amount being the share that should have accrued to her under the agreement of her adoption.
Closing Chapter of the Story.
It will be unnecessary to follow the case through the tedious channels of the litigation which followed. Suffice it to say that the case has been under advisement for some time and the decision of the county judge was made a part of the records at noon today. Judge Lansing's decision is a length one. Every point in the controversy has been carefully examined in the light of the best authorities attainable. In closing his decision, the judge said:
"The proof shows this child to have been bright, affectionate, gentle, and prepossessing. She won Elder Miller's affections at once. If he had not taken her it is fair to presume that someone else would have done so, and would have kept his agreement. But Elder Miller takes her, takes her to his home in Nebraska, tells his wife what he has done, rears, and educates her, has her baptized in his own name, treats her, and introduces her as his child. Everything goes smoothly on until the child, grown to womanhood, exhibits the most natural trait of young women: she accepts the attention of a lover, entertains his proposal, and obedient and dutiful, as the record shows her to have been heretofore, informs her father of the fact. The old man now, for the first time, finds her refractory, and despite his authority and despite the affection she had always borne and still bore him, his efforts to crush out her passion and to prevent her accomplishing a woman's destiny of wifehood and motherhood, bores fruit. It is then that, irritated by her opposition and the frustration of his plans, he displays the coarser characteristics of his nature. He brutally and falsely tells her that her mother was a prostitute and her father unknown and that she was unworthy to be the wife of an honest man, I say falsely, because these things were not true and he knew it; knew that she was the child of honest parents. Finding this also to be true, he casts her off, and having it her way, ignores his agreement, although possessed of an estate worth $250,000, cuts her off without a shilling."
Holli the Director Appointable.
Another sensational suit growing out of the failure of the Capital National bank was filed in district court today. It was commenced by Eugene Hallott, who was a depositor on the day that the bank failed to the extent of $1,400. He brings suit against Masters and Outcalt, as well as against D.E., Thompson, H.J. Walsh, It O. Phillips, E.P. Hamer, A.P.S. Stewart, and C.E. Years, all of whom were directors in the defunct bank. In his petition, Mr. Hallott alleges that the directors, although repeatedly advised by proper public officials that the bank was being recklessly conducted, that the paper taken was much of it bad, and that the bank was not in a healthy condition, failed to examine the books or exercise proper or supervision over the money deposited in the bank. He charges that the reputations of the directors as individual business men was such as to command the confidence of the depositors, especially when they attached their names to the reports issued periodically by the bank. Mr. Hallott further alleges that the bank was insolvent for a year before its doors were closed and that its funds were stolen and spirited away by its officers, all of which the directors might have known had they performed their duty.
Mayor Weir and Fire Commissioner.
Mayor Weir has returned from Cleveland, where he went last week to negotiate an extension of time on $6,000 of the city's indebtedness which became due July 1, and which the city treasurer was unable to meet because the council had neglected to make the proper levy. The mayor reports that his mission was entirely successful. He made an agreement by which the owners of the bonds will carry the city for seven months longer. At the end of the seven months, the city treasurer will forward to Cleveland the sum of $34,000, together with accrued interest from July 1, and also all expenses of transporting the bonds. The city council will be asked to ratify the mayor's agreement at its next meeting, and as the terms are altogether favorable to the city, there is just little doubt that the council will agree to them.

Thompson with Tar and Feathers,
HUMID Nob., Aug. 5. [Special Telegram to THE BEE.] John Harms, proprietor of the Commercial hotel, while angered at his wife for serving notice upon all saloon hoppers not to sell him any liquor, made an assault upon her early this morning by choking her until she became unconscious.

INGALLS FOR THE WINDUP
Superior's Great Interstate Games Auspiciously and Happily Ended.
HOT ELOQUENCE OF 'THE EX-SENATOR
He Humorously Touches on His Experience with Kama * Politics, and Points Out the Path the Voter Should Follow in Resolution.
CAMP LINCOLN, SUTEHIOU, Neb., Aug. 5.
[Special to THE BEE.] Cheer after cheer went up from the vast audience as the First Regiment band appeared escorting ex-Senator Ingalls to the stand. For a few moments they joined in "Marching Through Georgia," led by Comrade Doran. General Hanback then stepped forward and with appropriate remarks presented ex-Senator Ingalls as Kansas' most illustrious son and of whom she was justly proud. And as the ex-senator rose from his seat the vast audience surged to the front and only by strictest vigilance was kept from crowding upon the stand, each one only waiting to give his hearty handshake and cordial welcome to Nebraska's honored guest. His answer to General Hanback's presentation: "Kansas may be proud of her illustrious son, but she has a queer way of showing it, and no cow that ever jumped over the moon has ever been sent so high as Kansas sent this same illustrious son," brought the cries from the old comrades from that state, "But we stood by you," and this sentiment was echoed by all.
Ill * Experience In the War.
He continued that before a Nebraska audience he could not appear as a stranger or an alien, but to the manner born, and having never addressed such an audience, many of whom had fought for the flag of the union or wore in sympathy with those who had, without a feeling of humility or shame, for his military service had been so brief that he did not feel worthy to unlatch the latches of the shoes of those who gave their lives and aspirations that we might live. On a common bond there would always be bound together him and the soldiers; that in his few campaigns and where under fire he was as badly terrified as those who fought in every engagement from Bull Run to Appomattox, that no one in youth took his life in hand and went to battle with pleasure, and those who speak of the joy and exultation with which they welcomed the coming of the fray would never find in the midst of the battle. But somewhere near the sutler's wagon, shown he live to be as old as Methuselah he never could forget his feelings. Minutes dragged into hours, the trees seemed miles away, and all of appropriate use were taken by the superior officers, and though a large one would not be necessary to shelter him, those left seemed entirely inadequate for the purpose.
Thanksgiving of a Twelve Month.
"A year ago you gathered here to refresh yourselves with memories of the stupendous conflict," he continued, "and you do not require either name or station to make comrades of you, one and all. Twelve months ago the United States were in full career of unexampled prosperity. Wages had never been higher; all business was on a firm, substantial basis. Money was copious and abundant, and never has there been a time since the angels stood before the gates of Eden when the dollar of the working man could buy so many of life's necessities. And now, as if under some sudden shock of social and industrial effect, the labor and business of this country lies helpless, Thousands of unemployed men are cast on charity for support. Thousands wearing the button of the Grand Army of the Republic are cast out of employment. Money, the great eagle by which society is nourished, is as difficult to find as beer or whisky in Kansas, and to many of those wearing the button of the Grand Army of the Republic, the once mighty dollar has become as a withered leaf."

Thousands of those wearing the button of this order the problem of existence will be presented this winter as never before.
"Some say the reason for these changes is want of confidence in the integrity of man, want of confidence in gold. Some say overproduction, as well go unfettered for there are too many shoes as well go cold for there are too many clothes. Or when the little children raise their hands for the warmth the sun refuses to give, say to them there is too much chill upon the earth. Away with such reasons. The true explanation has not yet been given and tonight is not the time for it.
From the audience came cries of "Hear him!" "Hear him!" but the senator was firm in his resolution, and did not think the time and place appropriate to describe the changes that have taken place since twelve months ago.
Duty of the Commander.
Ho then impressed upon the old soldiers that they had a solemn duty to discharge to these who had grown up since the war closed. They must be instructed as to the sacrifices made, the heroic efforts to save the nation from ruin and dishonor. "And if thereafter it is to be shown that the union course is right, such things as patriotism and loyalty - if these are to be adhered to - must also be done by these of the Grand Army of the Republic. For in this organization, which yearly assembles, and whose throes shall oftentimes burn, and who shall be heard in the highest tribunal, there is no quality or station, no south, north, east or west, no state lines, no frontiers, nothing but two ocean boundaries between which you have made an indistinguishable republic."
The following resolutions were unanimously adopted at 10:39 General Hunkins, before a large crowd in the grove, read the following resolutions:
The solidarity of soldiers and sailors of the union in maintaining the union as a fundamental principle at Superior, Neb., desiring to attest their high appreciation of the egalitarian season of enjoyment experienced by them in testimony thereof do resolve:
That the reunion now drawing to a close has been a grand success. No pains have been spared either of time or money to make our warm-hearted and our stay one of delight. We have united and reminisced about the old times; we have dispersed much other hands and told everlasting stories of trial and victory. And we will return to our homes more duly imbued with devotion to the cause of liberty and good government. All those happy reminiscences have been in an absolute possible) through the untiring efforts of the citizens of Superior and to the officials and managers of the reunion. And to them, one and all, we pay the tribute of our humble and grateful thanks. In an especial sense, we desire, in the most marked manner, to express our highest regards for Comrade U. E. Adams, president of the association. To him is largely due the success which has so richly adorned the reunion. He has been uttering in his work of making every old comrade, as well as these near and dear to him, as happy as possible and in the highest sense has been the spirit of this great gathering of love and loyalty. May he be long in health and may all his ways be ways of pleasantness and in paths of peace.
The general then moved the adoption of the resolutions, which was unanimously carried.
After the enthusiasm of the audience had subsided, General Hunkins formally dismissed the camp.
The National Guard broke camp and left for home this morning. By 5 o'clock this afternoon the great crowd had disappeared, and at 6 o'clock the last tent in Camp Lincoln was struck and tied up. This ended the Columbian interstate reunion.
Of a Local Hard Times Dual.
CRETE, Aug. 5, [Special to The Bee.] The special telegram from New York in this morning's Bee created some excitement in this city. The story may be mainly correct, with only a few variations. The city marshal of Crete is here, on duty, and has not been absent from the city for weeks. The man in New York is J. A. Dorse, the well-known dealer in ready-made clothing, boots, and shoes, formerly a saloon keeper of this city. What possessed the man to go off after "green goods" nobody knows, and why he posed as city marshal of Crete is also a mystery.
Chicago attorneys arrived here today to protect the interests of their clients who are creditors of Dorse.

NO-HARD TIMES AT HASTINGS
Merchants of the Queen City Are Doing a Business to Be Proud Of.
INTERVIEWS WITH THE JOBbers THERE
All Lines of Trade Represented Depot the Situation as Satisfactory and the Outlook Enlivening, Retailers and Wholesalers Agree Together.
HASTINGS, Aug. 5. [Special to THE BEE.] On last Sunday THE BEE had a statement made by the merchants of Omaha as to the prevalence of hard times in that city. The Hastings correspondent of THE BEE interviewed a number of the leading firms of the Queen City and found that nearly all were well satisfied with the present situation, and believe that the cry of "hard times" is the result of imagination more than of any real effect the proposed change in the financial policy of the government may have. These are some of the expressions:
Dry Goods.
William Brash, of Walhalla & Brash, Out-trade for a little time past has been somewhat quiet, but this situation I ascribe, not so much to any financial disturbances, as to uneasiness concerning the outlook for crops. No one is asking for credit, and so in one sense the monetary stringency has affected us. The ones who would keep money in circulation haven't it.
Julius Weinberger, Manager A, J. Landa I cannot see but what our trade is just as good now as it ever was. Money seems abundant, and aside from a few croakers who would complain if they owned the heavens, all the farmers seem well satisfied with the prospects.
Mr. A, Pickens of A. Pickens & Bon Company I think that this financial crisis is more than one-half scare, although there may be some foundation for it. Our trade for the year has been above the average, but for July a little more light. Lack of confidence is the probable trouble.
J.N. Fountain, Furniture There has been no great falling off of business in the furniture line. It is always very quiet at this time of year, but the previous few months will compare favorably with these of previous years.
In the Furnishing Line.
W.E. Barnes, of C.H. Barnes Clothing House Our trade for the past year has been good, June was a very good month, comparatively speaking, but July was much better. W.J. Falk Our June and July trade was very good, and on the whole the cry of hard times seems exaggerated.
S.M. Thompson, Shoes January, February, July, and August are always dull months in the shoe business, but this year my trade has been fully as good as before. The present crisis has not affected me, and I believe it simply to be the result of the uncertainty of the public to the probable legislation on the tariff and financial problems.
M.B. Hollins, "The Fair." My trade has been fully as good as over and in fact is better than last year. I do a stricter cash business and am not troubled with collections. I can see no difference in the state of affairs now and prior to this time.
Money Left for London.
O.C. Linn, Jewelry. Our trade for the past year has been better than in any other.
July is always a light month, and at present, it is a little quiet, but I look for it to pick up about the middle of the month. I have no cause for complaint. S. E. Howard & Co., Jewelers. We cannot see but what our trade has been better this year, and although lighter during the last two months, as is usual, the outlook is encouraging and business will probably increase again with the close of the heated term. Among the Customers. Hastings Grocery Company. Our trouble has been not so much in our inability to sell our goods as in collections. Our cash trade has increased, but our time customers are much more tardy in settling up. D. C. Haste & Co., Wholesale Grain and Coal. Our stock must come down. Harness Company. The price of hides has been very low for some time, and so while our wholesale trade is just as extensive, it does not amount to as much as it formerly did. Our retail trade has been very good and we cannot complain of hard times. C. L. Stone, Agricultural Implements. Trade for the year has been good, and for July excellent. While not quite as large as last year at this time, I ascribe this to the partial failure of small grain. Collections are good. Hastings Implement Company. Our trade has been better than over before, and we never had so much cash trade. Men whom we formerly never could give time enough, now insist on paying cash even before trying their purchases. This season we have sold eight or ten harnesses for cash, when formerly we have thought we were in luck if we got ready money for one or two. Collections are reasonable. Tumble, Blackman & Alexander. Our June grocery trade was 4 percent better than June of the previous year. Similarly, our July trade was 20 percent above that for 1889, and the rest of the year in proportion. Collections are good. J. Gilles, Manager C. N. Dietz Lumber Company. Our trade for the year has been fair, and although lately we have been doing a very light business, yet we are now furnishing a good many estimates for outside parties. It is just to say that the lumber business is always very quickly affected by any cry of hard times. J. H. Haney & Co., Manufacturers of Harness. Our trade for the year up to June was way ahead of what it was last year. Suddenly there was a falling off, and until the 1st of this month our business was comparatively dull. We ascribe this to a general feeling of uneasiness, and are certain that if the people can be convinced that there is no cause for alarm, trade will soon pick up again. We think the bottom has been touched. Anson & Pratt, Plumbers. We can have no cause for complaint as to the existing state of affairs. Our trade has been better for the whole year and for June and July, even better than in 1889. Collections are a little dull, but that is always the case before harvest. We can see no reason for the general cry of hard times. Prospects are good and the outlook never was better. Lawman & Hedrick, Real Estate. Since the first of the year, we have disposed of $315,000 of farm lands, besides city property, at an average of $10 an acre. We can see no appreciable effect of any cry of hard times. Grandest, largest stereoptical views overhown, (Journalistic realm tonight.) Or and rural. Grand, Aug. 8. [Special to The Herald.] Mr. E. S., Capron left for Chicago Monday morning.

World's fair visitors Courtland each. Alleged theft: A front page. CUSTER, Aug. 5, (Special Telegram to The Herald.) For the last year, the stock dealers of this city have not with losses of hogs to theft. No clue could be discovered of the thieves. At an early hour this morning, there were live head of hogs stolen from the yards of Hopkins & Duck, and noon after the same animals were found in the yards of J. D. Boyle. He had bought them from a young farmer by the name of Frank Spick. When Spick presented his sale ticket at the bank, he was arrested. His examination will take place tomorrow. Spick boldly admitted being 26 years old. | 44 |

the headquarters of the company In Chicago
yesterday afternoon , the contents of which
will bo n source of pleasure to all of his
friends In this city , as It certainly was'to
him. The chocking up of the books after
the shortage In CashlorJ , P. Christiansen's
books was discovered has been completed
nnd the results wore telegraphed to Chicago.
Yesterday a reply came , stating that Mr.
Gcorgo H. Dnnton would occupy the position
of local freight agent In place of Mr. Uoft" ,
nnd that the latter would bo promoted to the
position of commercial agent.
The position of commercial npont Is a now
ono , and was created especially for.Mr. Koff.
Its duties will call him out nmonir the business
men ot the city , Instead of keeping him
cooped up in tin ) llttlo olllco in the southern
part of the city as bcforo. Ills business will
bo to work up trade for the road , and the
growth of business the Koclc Island has seen
during the past fo\v years Is n sunk-lent In
dication of his qualifications for the placo.
The dry details of the oflfco will bo taken oft
hU hands and the outsldo work which will
fall upon his shouldcts Is much more to his
liking.
Mr. Holt has been wishing for this kind of
a windfall for years , and now that It has
como ho Is elated , as ho has a right to DO.
The work Is nioro agreeable and the pay Is
hotter , two considerations which nro , of
course , highly satisfactory. But the best
part of the promotion , as ho looks at it , ts
the fact that the company in making it com
pletely exonerates him from "all charges of
crookedness that have been made a.zatnst
him. Whatever was wrong with the books
has been credited up to his underling , \vhcro
it belongs , nnd the charges which are made
by the underling have been fully investi
gated. The fact of the promotion tolls , in a
far clearer manner than words could , Just
what the olllClals of the company thought of
Mr. Kofi's way of doing business.

never saw the lake so beautiful
as It was last night just before

nmooth and polished as a mirror , and magni-
llod In reflecting the rich coloring of sky nnd
cloud. The only thing that broke the glassy
surface was the ripple of a passing boat or
the graceful gliding of n train of stately pel
icans that had stopped to refresh them
selves on their voyage around the
world. There wore many people to
enjoy the perfect beauty of the scene , an d
huso who had a spark of artistic instinct
ii their souls felt it stirred ns It had never
men stirred before. When the shadows
row denser and obscured nil but the bolder
lutlincs of the lake shores , songs and music
rom a dozen boating parties added a new

imlto a picture that appealed to the hotter

II. Bennett , manager of the ofllco of the
Western Iowa Insurance Inspection bureau ,
has issued a circular to all the companies
doing business In this vicinity authorizing a
raise in Hro Insurance rates of " 0 per cent ,
commencing Immediately. Accompanying
the order Is a circular giving the reasons for
this action. It states that the losses and ex
penses for the various companies for the last
four years ending December ill , 1892 , have
amounted to $4i7-UH,720 : ) , whllo the gross
receipts have only been 18 ,1157,818 , which
leaves u not loss of fS.MO.Uor on the four
years buMnebs , Thus , according to these
llguros , the lire Insurance companies have
been doing business at 'J per cent less than
the actual cost , which accounts for the fail
ure of ono company every week , on the
uvrraga Mr , Uionnett attributes the In-
cre.isu in the number of 11 res to the use of
electricity , gasoline stoves ami other modern
improvements , and thinks the Increase of
risk demands a corresponding Increase in
the rates of Insurance.

WHAT EVERY MAN IS WORTH.
The Chemical Compound * of an Avoraeo
Voter Are Yulue < l nt 818,300.
An interesting exhibit at the National
museum shows the physical ingredients
which go to make up the average man ,
weighing 154 pounds , says the American
A.nalyist. A largo glass jar holds the
ninety-six pounds of water which his body
contains. In other receptacles are three
pounds of white of egg , a little le/s than
' : en pounds of pure glue without which
.t would bo impossible to keep body and
soul together 13J pounds of fut , 8t
pounds of phosphate of lime. 1 pound of
carbonate of lime , 3 ounces of sugar and
starch , 7 ounces of fluoride of calcium ,
(1 ounces of phosphate of magnesia and a
'ittlo ordinary table salt. Divided up
nto his primary chemical elements the
same man is found to contain 07 pounds
of oxygen enough to take up , under
ordinary atmospheric pressure , the
space of a room 10 feet long , 10 feet
wide and 10 feet high. His body also
holds 15 pounds of hydrogen , which , un
der the same conditions , would occupy
somewhat more than two such 'rooms as
that described. , To these must Do added
3 pounds and 13 ounces of nitrogen. The
carbon in the corpus oi the individual
referred to is represented by a cubic
foot of coal. It ought to bo a diamond
of the same size , because the stone is
pure carbon , but the National museum
has not such a ono in its possession. A
row of bottles contain the ether elements
going to mulco up the man. These are
4 ounces of chlorine , 3J ounces of fluor
ine , 8 ounces of phosphorus , 3 } ounces of
brimstone , 2 } ounces of sodium , 2i ounces
of potassium , one-tenth of an ounce of
iron , 2 ounces of magnesium , and 3
pounds and 13 ounces of calcium. Cal
cium at present market rates is worth
$300 an ounce , so that the amount of it
contained in ono ordinary human body
has a money value of $18,300. Few of
our follow citizens realize that they are
worth so much intrinsically.

THE SOCIAL DJJT OF HELEN GOULD
A Co nil up ; Kvent' lf > Which Notr York So
ciety U Interfiled The Uimnttiniliis

EltlniRtt'ti nt 810,000,000.
Among the many social debuts that
will take place in Now York during the
coming winter the ono that will oxclto
the most interest is that of llolen M.
Gquld. only daughter of the great
financier and his favorite among all his
children.
The entrance into society of this young
woman is likely to be accompanied by
not a little stir and comment. Miss
Gould has passed the ago when young
women are as n rule introduced to the
social world in a formal way. She is no
longer a young girl in tbo strict sense of
the word , for in the matter of yearn she
is very fairly into the twenties and is
grave and womanly beyond her years.
She will represent $15,000,000 or more
of her own , all good hard cash , or , what
is as good , railroad securities whoso
tendency Is ever upward , and property
that is always increasing in value. She
owns the splendid Fifth avenue resi
dence her father so long occupied , and
the great mansion at Irvington-on-tho-
Hudson , where the Gould family spent
the summer. These great properties
are the exclusive possession of Miss
Gould , and they are gorgeously and
completely furnished throughout. To
gether they arc worth quite $1,500,000.
So , whllo Jay Gould in hia lifetime
had many and HorcocriticB.and til though
that sometimes nebulous clamant known
as the best society rather looked down
on the famous money maker , there is
no likelihood that his daughter will bo
cavilled at unless it bo by ambitious
matrons with young daughters of their
own in the market for disposal to the
highest legitimate blddo.
Miss Helen Gould is not strikingly
handsome , but she is very sweet and
womanly in her manner. She need not
fear that she will become a languishing
wall llo wor in the ball and reception
rooms that she will figure in during the
social season now drawing near. Her
recommendations to favor are too many
and too weighty.
But as for fortune hunters , they may
as well keep their distance. Along with
her mother's amiability and sweetness
of character she has much of her father's
keenness and strong common sense.
Hence , while 8119 , will bo a bud worth
the plucking , tho.man who would per
form that feat must look well to him
self , for ho will' have no gushing damsel
to deal with. "
Few young women who figure or rca
soon to figure in New York's social whirl
are so little known as is Helen Gould.
Even the leaders ; in the circles where
she is to enter donot know the young
woman well. They know , to bo sure ,
that she is the daughter of the late Jay
Gould , that she is said to bo a good and
charming girl and that she is enor
mously rich. Their fund of information
runs out at this pbint , and they are wait
ing with some curiosity to add to it by
means of porsoriaji observation.
The soqial debut of Miss "Gould has
been delayed considerably beyond the
time that .it would have been made by
the deaths of her father'and mother.
There was never a daughter raoro devoted -
voted to her mother than was Helen
Gould to hers during the latter's de
clining years. The two were very like
in temperament , and their constant com
panionship made the daughter the coun
terpart of her mother in disposition and
manners a result that was good for the
young girl , for while the wife of Jay
Gould never figured in society , but
always shrank from so doing , she was
none the less a superior woman in many
ways.
The death of this mother throw the
young girl upon her own resources. She
could not enter into society , and , indeed ,
had no wish to do so. Instead she de-
otod herself to her father , who had be
come partly an invalid , and up to the
time of his death she was his mainstay
and his solace in his hours of Buffering
and sickness.
And .w it is that Miss Gould will enter
nto society a comparative stranger to
ts members.
Those who know Helen Gould give evi
dence that she is attractive both in ap
pearance and manners. Rather retiring
and unassuming , shobtill has that power
to charm that marks some young women
of more than ordinarily quiet demeanor.
She is not what would bo called a beau
tiful woman , but she is a handsome ono
taken from either a man's or a woman's
point of view.
Of medium height , Miss Gould is a
brunette , but not a very pronounced ono.
Her hair is dark , but not of the inky
blackness that marked her father's hair
und beard , and her eyes are of the unde-
finable shade that is neither dark nor
brown , but that seems to change and
alternate. Her features are strong with
out the hard lines that were worn into
her father s face , and they are further
softened by the sweeter nnd more
amiable traits that came to her from her
mother not strictly beautiful , as has
been said , but still a woman whoso face
would command more than a passing
glance no-mutter where seen. She is of
graceful figure and the walk of ono used
to pedestrian exercise. Such is the
greatest heiress in America as she is
peon today.
Miss Gould's name has rarely , If fjver
appeared in those papers that assume to
servo up the small boei1 of New York so
ciety to those who like that sort of
thing. Nor dOjiyou often see it in the
great dailies. i.But . when you do it is al
ways connected with some act of bonovo-
loneo that has been performed so quietly
that even tho"keou-eyod reporter has
stumbled ovoi1 It by sheeraccident. .

his or that charity and then rest In
weot content , her duty done. Her
method Is more like the parish visiting
j-Btoni that great ladles In England
ometlmes aflect as a fad rather than
or a better reason. Jay Gould and his
timlly were attendants at the church of
) r. .John K. Pax ton , who preaches to
nero wealth , perhaps , than any other
mstor In Now York. Miss Gould when
n Now York always identifies hornclf
vlth all the mission nnd benevolent
organizations connected with this
church and has always stood as ready
to do real work as to contribute In
money. She has acted as a Sunday
school teacher and , being a sweet-
omporod young woman , was a success.
As a volunteer parish worker she has
> een Invaluable , for whllo being gen
erous her strong common sense "kept her
rom being humbugged by chronic
mupors.
Her favorite homo is her late father's
minmor house at irvington , upon whlcli
le spe-nt a fortune , and to good ad van-
ago. The house remains her property
and Miss Gould spends much of the
summer there , to the great satisfaction
if the poor of the neighborhood ,
rtuch was written during. Jny
Sould's lifetime of the splendid hot-
louses connected with his Irvington
ionic , In which almost every known
chid of rare plants and flowers is ctiltl-
ated regardless of cost. It Is said that
.ho famous financier used to smile grimly
vhon complimented upon his skill and
pstf ? In floriculture. Asa matter of
act the miiltl-mllHonatro had very little
do with his conservatories save to foot
ho bills. Ho liked flowers In a negative
ort of way , as ho liked most of the
hings that his favdrito did , but heloft
ho management of the flowers to his
laughter and the expert floriculturist
vhom he employed.
Miss Gould has always been more
[ Uiot In her tastes than most young
vomen of large means. It is and has
icon with them the fad to go in for
ports and games of almost all sorts.
Yachting and coaching cotno first and
ess Important methods of enjoyment
allow in their order. Miss Gould haslet
lot , so far as Is known , displayed pro-
ielency in any of those linos. She is a
amous pedestrian and a good horse-
voman. Her retired life has made of
lor somewhat of a student and she Is a
killfiil musician. If she over had lltor-
iry tendencies , as nt ono time her father
lad , she has carefully concealed the
act. She is practically mistress of her
ast fortune , but it is not likely to suffer
at her hands , for she is said to have as
teen a mind for business as oven her
U'othcr George , now the head of the
ainlly and chief conservator of the vast
Gould interests.
' ArtcmimVar < l nnil Mark T\vnln.
Artemus Ward had a favorite trick
hat ho loved to indulge in , and out of
vhlch ho appeared to got a good deal of
original fun , says the Californian. This
vas the disbursing of a rigmarole of
nonsense in a solemn nnd impressive
nanner , as though ho was saying some-
hing of unusual weight and importance.
t was a game of mystification in which
10 greatly delighted. At a dinner
fiven him by leading Comstockers at
he International hotel , Ward played
lis trick on Mark Twain , all present
> eing let into the secret beforehand.
3o began an absurd exposition of the
vord genius , upon the conclusion of
vhich the embarrassed Mark was
obliged to acknowledge his inability to
comprehend the speaker.
' 'Indeed ! " exclaimed Artemus , and for
mlf a minute ho gazed at Mark with a
ace in which a shade of impatience
> egan to mingle with astonishment and
compassion. Then , heaving a sigh , ho
saidj "Well , perhaps I was not sufli-
cfently explicit. What I wished to say
vas simply that genius is a sort of illu
minating quality of the mind inherent
n those of constitutionally inflammable
natures , and whoso conceptions are not
of that ambiguous and disputable kind
which may be said "
"Hold on , Artemus. " interrupted
tfark. "It is useleses for you to repeat
your definition. The wine or the brandy
or the whisky or some other thing has
jono to my head. Toll it to mo some
) ther time , or , botte- still , write it down
'or mo and I'll study it at my leisure. "
"Goodl" cried Artemus , his face boam-
ng with pleasure. "I'll give it to you
tomorrow in black and white. I have
jcon much misunderstood in this mat
ter , and it is important that I should
pot myself right. You see that to the eye
of a person of a warm and inflammable
nature , and in whose self-luminous mind
deas arise that are by no means con-
Inod to the material which conception
tarnishes , but may be "
"For God's sake ! " cried Mark , "if you
o at that again you'll drive me mad. "
The general burst of laughter which
followed this feeling and half angry pro
test made it plain to Mark that Artemus
iiad been sot to work on him with malice
aforethought , and that all pre'sent were
in the plot and had been amusing them
selves at his expense.

Charles O. Brown, the pension inspector of this city, got a copy of THE BEE yesterday morning before he got out of bed and read in it the account of U.C. Taylor's doings and his supposed crookedness in regard to a pension which he has been drawing without being entitled to it. He immediately paid a visit to Sheriff Hinchey and looked over the papers found in Taylor's possession. He stated that there was undoubtedly something wrong about him, and he is giving the case a thorough sifting. It is stated that a pension attorney named Wool, who lives in Washington, and through whom Taylor's pension was secured, is very likely to be implicated in a wrongdoing before the investigation is completed.

NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Mr. J. A. Roff Receives a Very Agreeable Surprise.
ROCK ISLAND SERVICE HAS BEEN APPRECIATED
He has been promoted to be Commercial Agent of the Rock Island Railroad Company
A Violation of the Charges Made Him,
A. A. Hoyt, formerly local freight Agent of the Rock Island, received a telegram from the headquarters of the company in Chicago yesterday afternoon, the contents of which will be a source of pleasure to all of his friends in this city, as it certainly was to him. The checking up of the books after the shortage in Cashier P. Christiansen's books was discovered has been completed and the results were telegraphed to Chicago. Yesterday a reply came, stating that Mr.
George H. Denton would occupy the position of local freight agent in place of Mr. Holt, and that the latter would be promoted to the position of commercial agent. The position of commercial agent is a new one, and was created especially for Mr. Koff. Its duties will call him among the business men of the city, instead of keeping him cooped up in the little office in the southern part of the city as before. His business will be to work up trade for the road, and the growth of business the Rock Island has seen during the past few years is a sure indication of his qualifications for the place. The dry details of the office will be taken off his hands and the outside work which will fall upon his shoulders is much more to his liking. Mr. Holt has been wishing for this kind of a windfall for years, and now that it has come he is elated, as he has a right to be. The work is more agreeable and the pay is better, two considerations which are, of course, highly satisfactory. But the best part of the promotion, as he looks at it, is the fact that the company in making it completely exonerates him from "all charges of crookedness that have been made against him. Whatever was wrong with the books has been credited up to his underling, where it belongs, and the charges which are made by the underling have been fully investigated. The fact of the promotion tells, in a far clearer manner than words could, just what the officials of the company thought of Mr. Koff's way of doing business.
Beautiful Manawa.
Old timers who have seen Lake Manawa in all of its phases of beauty, when reflecting the smiles of a perfect sky or lashed in fury by a storm, agree that they never saw the lake so beautiful as it was last night just before and after sunset. The surface was as smooth and polished as a mirror, and magnified in reflecting the rich coloring of sky and cloud. The only thing that broke the glassy surface was the ripple of a passing boat or the graceful gliding of a train of stately pelicans that had stopped to refresh themselves on their voyage around the world. There were many people to enjoy the perfect beauty of the scene, and those who had a spark of artistic instinct in their souls felt it stirred as it had never men stirred before. When the shadows grew denser and obscured all but the boldest outlines of the lake shores, songs and music from a dozen boating parties added a new harmony, and there was nothing wanting to make a picture that appealed to the better elements in the human composition.
There were several carriage and buggy parties from Omaia, including V. S. Potter and friends, who thoroughly enjoyed the evening. There will be band music at the lake this evening, besides the other usual attractions, and if the conditions are anything nearly as favorable as they were last night an hour or two at the lake will afford exquisite enjoyment.
Women's Relief Corps.
The local branch of the Woman's Relief Corps held a special meeting yesterday afternoon in the Grand Army hall for the purpose of meeting Mrs. E. Flora Evans of Clinton, the president of the department of Iowa. The excellence of the showing made by the Woman's Relief corps in this city led Mrs. Evans to select it as an example of the work of the order at the state convention which is to be held here next year. It is an honor of which the ladies are justly proud, and to which the high character of the work they have done during the past few years amply entitles them. In making her address Mrs. Evans made some remarks which were of great interest to those present. Speaking of the work of the order she said:
"Our order numbers now 130,789, an increase of 13,218 during the past year. During the year money has been turned over to the posts amounting to $34,188; $6,103, have been expended for relief, and the clothing and other articles which have been turned over to the needy have amounted to $38,969. In 1883 forty charter members knocked at the door of the Grand Army of the Republic and asked to be admitted as their auxiliary. Ten years, and behold the army of noble women who now steadily march on the path marked out by the forty pioneers."

Domestic soap outlasts cheap soap
Looking Inquire State.
H. Bennett, manager of the office of the Western Iowa Insurance Inspection bureau, has issued a circular to all the companies doing business in this vicinity authorizing a raise in fire insurance rates of "5 percent, commencing immediately. Accompanying the order is a circular giving the reasons for this action. It states that the losses and expenses for the various companies for the last four years ending December 31, 1892, have amounted to $47,185,720, while the gross receipts have only been $18,157,818, which leaves a not loss of $28,027,902 on the four years business, Thus, according to these figures, the fire insurance companies have been doing business at "5 percent less than the actual cost, which accounts for the failure of one company every week, according to Mr. Bennett attributes the increase in the number of fires to the use of electricity, gasoline stoves and other modern improvements, and thinks the increase of risk demands a corresponding increase in the rates of insurance.

Mysterious Wyoming disappearance.
Rawlins, Wyo., Aug. 4, [Special Telegram to THE HERALD.] John W. Wallace, a former member of the well-known wholesale grocery house of Wallace Bros. in this city that failed a few years ago and for some time was operating out of Green River, went out to a ranch about sixty miles from the town for a short stay. After remaining at the ranch for a couple of days he suddenly disappeared, taking his valise with him. He was soon missed and his action seemed somewhat strange. The ranchmen and several employees started in search of him. His valise was found several miles from the ranch, but nothing has been found of the missing man. His brother Earl has gone to join in the search.
The Terminal company owns four-fifths of the terminal facilities in the city, the Union Depot Terminal warehouse, three freight depots and leases tracks and depot rights. Its property is valued at $1,000,000.
Large, long, pearly teeth belong to sentimental, imaginative people; small, short, yellow teeth to those of an unpoetic turn of mind.
The Trump card was dealt.
Missoula, VA., Aug. 4. (Special to THE BEE) A gang of seven bums were arrested last evening and today had a preliminary examination before the mayor and were bound over under $500 bonds to appear at the next term of district court. In default of bonds they went to the county jail. This city has been a gathering point for the distressed laborers from Colorado, and the town has fed, at different times, several hundred, which has attracted a large number of professional bums, to which those bound over certainly belong. They were charged with committing larceny by taking a case of shoes from the store of John Caloy, and were captured with a few pairs in their possession.
Property Owners Premised for Fund.
Sioux City, Aug. 4. (Special Telegram to THE BEE.) Many large property owners in this portion of the state are not going to be able to meet their taxes due September 1, and which default October 1, on account of the financial stringency. County treasurers are uniting in an effort to tide them over by securing permission from state officials to issue receipts to them and take in return bonds for the amount of the taxes due April 1, 1889, which, if not taken then, shall be a tax lien upon the property. It is thought this will tide them over the hard times.
Arrested the Assistant Matron.
DES MOINES, Aug. 4. Mrs. Laura Morgan, assistant matron of the Girls Reform school at Mitchellville, was arrested today, charged with assault and battery in whipping an inmate of the institution. The girl says she received 80 lashes, while Mrs. Morgan claims she struck the palm of the girl's hand only six times. It is believed the girl inflicted the punishment on herself to escape from school.
Pomeroy's Tornado Insurance.
FORT DOUGLAS, Utah, Aug. 4. (Special Telegram to THE BEE.) The tornado insurance at cyclone-stricken Pomeroy has fallen much below the figures of the first estimate. The insurance on the claims that have died up to the present, aggregating over 100 individuals, amounts to only $21,007.40. The first estimates were all the way from $35,000 to $40,000. There are a few claims not yet on file that may bring the total up to $25,000. About $50,000 has been received by the relief committee.
Iowa Railroads Retrenching.
CEDAR RAPIDS, la., Aug. 4. (Special Telegram to THE BEE.) An order has been issued from the general offices of the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern road that beginning with tomorrow the clerks will not work on Saturdays and that there will be a corresponding reduction of all salaries. The time at the shops has been cut down to eight hours each day and the men who have been doing extra work have been laid off.
WHAT EVERY MAN IS WORTH.
The Chemical Compound of an Average Voter Are Worth $18,300.
An interesting exhibit at the National museum shows the physical ingredients which go to make up the average man, weighing 154 pounds, says the American Analyst. A large glass jar holds the ninety-six pounds of water which his body contains. In other receptacles are three pounds of white of egg, a little less than ten pounds of pure glue without which it would be impossible to keep body and soul together. 13½ pounds of fat, 8 pounds of phosphate of lime, 1 pound of carbonate of lime, 3 ounces of sugar and starch, 7 ounces of fluoride of calcium, 6 ounces of phosphate of magnesia, and a little ordinary table salt. Divided up into his primary chemical elements the same man is found to contain 67 pounds of oxygen enough to take up, under ordinary atmospheric pressure, the space of a room 10 feet long, 10 feet wide and 10 feet high. His body also holds 15 pounds of hydrogen, which, under the same conditions, would occupy somewhat more than two such rooms as that described. To these must be added 3 pounds and 13 ounces of nitrogen. The carbon in the corpus of the individual referred to is represented by a cubic foot of coal. It ought to be a diamond of the same size, because the stone is pure carbon, but the National museum has not such a one in its possession. A row of bottles contain the other elements going to make up the man. These are 4 ounces of chlorine, 3½ ounces of fluorine, 8 ounces of phosphorus, 3½ ounces of brimstone, 2½ ounces of sodium, 2½ ounces of potassium, one-tenth of an ounce of iron, 2 ounces of magnesium, and 3 pounds and 13 ounces of calcium. Calcium at present market rates is worth $300 an ounce, so that the amount of it contained in one ordinary human body has a money value of $18,300. Few of our follow citizens realize that they are worth so much intrinsically.
The Tragic Conclusion of a Negro Celebration in Indian Territory.
COFFEYVILLE, Kan., Aug. 4. The celebration by negroes of Independence day, which took place at Goose Neck Bend, I.T., today, resulted in starting a race war between the whites and blacks. Great crowds of negroes were present at the celebration and many white people attended as spectators. Among the latter was James Singleton, with whom John Van (colored) had a long-standing quarrel. When the two men today met the quarrel was renewed and Van struck Singleton over the head with a revolver. Singleton's son, a young man of 18 years of age, went to his father's rescue and shot and killed Van. The negroes at once declared a war of extermination against the whites and were about to begin hostilities when Deputy United States Marshal Bruner gathered a posse and kept the whites and blacks separated. Bruner arrested young Singleton and took him to Fort Smith, Ark., for safe keeping. The posse, in the meantime, kept the factions apart and hostilities were frustrated.
Choctaw Arrested.
WILLIAMSON, I.T., Aug. 4. The three Choctaw Indians who were sentenced to be shot for the murder of several members of the Jones faction, and who were respited by the government until August 4, have been granted a further respite for one month. It is said that if the United States government insists on the pardon of the prisoners Jones would consent, especially if such a course would put an end to the deplorable controversy between his and the Locke faction.
Strike on Monday.
RICHMOND, Mo., Aug. 4. The miners of Hay County, twelve hundred in number, met today and decided to strike Monday unless the Kansas & Texas company settles all differences with its miners by that time.

Charms of Head and Heart and Dowered with Millions.
THE SOCIAL DEBUT OF HELEN GOULD
A Coming-Out; an Event Which New York Society Is Interfiled.
The Domination You May Woman Whole Fortune is 810,000,000.
Among the many social debuts that will take place in New York during the coming winter, the one that will excite the most interest is that of Helen M. Gould, only daughter of the great financier and his favorite among all his children.
The entrance into society of this young woman is likely to be accompanied by not a little stir and comment. Miss Gould has passed the age when young women are as a rule introduced to the social world in a formal way. She is no longer a young girl in the strict sense of the word, for in the matter of years she is very fairly into the twenties and is grave and womanly beyond her years.
She will represent $15,000,000 or more of her own, all good hard cash, or, what is as good, railroad securities whose tendency is ever upward, and property that is always increasing in value. She owns the splendid Fifth Avenue residence her father so long occupied, and the great mansion at Irvington-on-the-Hudson, where the Gould family spent the summer. These great properties are the exclusive possession of Miss Gould, and they are gorgeously and completely furnished throughout. Together they are worth quite $1,500,000. So, while Jay Gould in his lifetime had many and various critics, and though that sometimes nebulous claimant known as the best society rather looked down on the famous money maker, there is no likelihood that his daughter will be cavilled at unless it be by ambitious matrons with young daughters of their own in the market for disposal to the highest legitimate bidder.
Miss Helen Gould is not strikingly handsome, but she is very sweet and womanly in her manner. She need not fear that she will become a languishing wall flower in the ball and reception rooms that she will figure in during the social season now drawing near. Her recommendations to favor are too many and too weighty.
But as for fortune hunters, they may as well keep their distance. Along with her mother's amiability and sweetness of character, she has much of her father's keenness and strong common sense. Hence, while 8119, will be a bud worth the plucking, the man who would perform that feat must look well to himself, for he will have no gushing damsel to deal with.
Few young women who figure or will figure in New York's social whirl are so little known as is Helen Gould. Even the leaders in the circles where she is to enter do not know the young woman well. They know, to be sure, that she is the daughter of the late Jay Gould, that she is said to be a good and charming girl and that she is enormously rich. Their fund of information runs out at this point, and they are waiting with some curiosity to add to it by means of personal observation.
The social debut of Miss Gould has been delayed considerably beyond the time that it would have been made by the deaths of her father and mother. There was never a daughter more devoted to her mother than was Helen Gould to hers during the latter's declining years. The two were very alike in temperament, and their constant companionship made the daughter the counterpart of her mother in disposition and manners, a result that was good for the young girl, for while the wife of Jay Gould never figured in society, but always shrank from so doing, she was none the less a superior woman in many ways.
The death of this mother threw the young girl upon her own resources. She could not enter into society, and, indeed, had no wish to do so. Instead, she devoted herself to her father, who had become partly an invalid, and up to the time of his death she was his mainstay and his solace in his hours of suffering and sickness.
And it is that Miss Gould will enter into society a comparative stranger to its members.
Those who know Helen Gould give evidence that she is attractive both in appearance and manners. Rather retiring and unassuming, she, nonetheless, has that power to charm that marks some young women of more than ordinarily quiet demeanor. She is not what would be called a beautiful woman, but she is a handsome one taken from either a man's or a woman's point of view.
Of medium height, Miss Gould is a brunette, but not a very pronounced one. Her hair is dark, but not of the inky blackness that marked her father's hair and beard, and her eyes are of the undefined shade that is neither dark nor brown, but that seems to change and alternate. Her features are strong without the hard lines that were worn into her father's face, and they are further softened by the sweeter and more amiable traits that came to her from her mother. Not strictly beautiful, as has been said, but still a woman whose face would command more than a passing glance wherever seen. She is of graceful figure and the walk of one used to pedestrian exercise. Such is the greatest heiress in America as she is known today.
Miss Gould's name has rarely, if ever, appeared in those papers that assume to serve up the small beef of New York society to those who like that sort of thing. Nor do you often see it in the great dailies. But when you do, it is always connected with some act of benevolence that has been performed so quietly that even the keen-eyed reporter has stumbled over it by sheer accident.
Work among the city poor was Miss Gould's hobby before her parents died, and since their death she has had more time and means to continue the work. Jay Gould himself never posed as a benevolent man or philanthropist. He used to say it was of no use that he would be more assailed, and would not have his motives questioned. That he was in a way right was shown when about a year before his death there was a meeting held in his home on Fifth Avenue to further church work in New York. He did not originate the idea. The ministers asked permission to meet in his house. He gave the permission, and he gave in addition his personal check for $10,000 to help the work in hand, and in addition checks for smaller amounts in the name of other members of his family. For this Gould was berated by the press, religious and secular, which pronounced him an ostentatious hypocrite and several other things besides. It was his first and last experiment of the kind, according to the New York Herald, it was his daughter who had brought the affair about, hoping for a very different verdict on her father's action. After this affair she acted as his advisor and his money never figured in her work, although his checkbook was practically at her command.
Miss Gould's method of doing good is practical. She does not find a check to this or that charity and then rest in wet content, her duty done. Her method is more like the parish visiting that great ladies in England sometimes affect as a fad rather than for a better reason. Jay Gould and his family were attendants at the church of Dr. John K. Paxon, who preaches to more wealth, perhaps, than any other minister in New York. Miss Gould, when in New York, always identifies herself with all the mission and benevolent organizations connected with this church and has always stood as ready to do real work as to contribute in money. She has acted as a Sunday school teacher and, being a sweet-tempered young woman, was a success. As a volunteer parish worker, she has been invaluable, for while being generous, her strong common sense kept her from being humbugged by chronic beggars.
Her favorite home is her late father's mansion house at Irvington, upon which he spent a fortune, and to good advantage. The house remains her property and Miss Gould spends much of the summer there, to the great satisfaction of the poor of the neighborhood.
Such was written during Jay Gould's lifetime of the splendid hot-houses connected with his Irvington estate, in which almost every known child of rare plants and flowers is cultivated, regardless of cost. It is said that the famous financier used to smile grimly when complimented upon his skill and pastime in floriculture. As a matter of act, the multitendented hothouse had very little to do with his conservatories save to foot the bills. He liked flowers in a negative sort of way, as he liked most of the things that his favorite daughter did, but he left the management of the flowers to his daughter and the expert floriculturist whom he employed.
Miss Gould has always been more like in her tastes than most young women of large means. It is and has been with them the fad to go in for sports and games of almost all sorts.
Yachting and coaching come first and are the most important methods of enjoyment, allowing in their order. Miss Gould has, so far as is known, displayed proficiency in any of those lines. She is a renowned pedestrian and a good horsewoman. Her retired life has made her somewhat of a student and she is a skillful musician. If she ever had literary tendencies, as once upon a time her father had, she has carefully concealed the fact. She is practically mistress of her vast fortune, but it is not likely to suffer at her hands, for she is said to have a mind for business as keen as her brother George, now the head of the family and chief conservator of the vast Gould interests.
Artemus Ward had a favorite trick that he loved to indulge in, and out of which he appeared to get a good deal of original fun, says the Californian. This was the disbursing of a rigmarole of nonsense in a solemn and impressive manner, as though he was saying something of unusual weight and importance. It was a game of mystification in which he greatly delighted. At a dinner given him by leading Comstockers at the International hotel, Ward played his trick on Mark Twain, all present being let into the secret beforehand.
He began an absurd exposition of the word genius, upon the conclusion of which the embarrassed Mark was obliged to acknowledge his inability to comprehend the speaker.
"Indeed!" exclaimed Artemus, and for a minute he gazed at Mark with a face in which a shade of impatience began to mingle with astonishment and compassion. Then, heaving a sigh, he said, "Well, perhaps I was not sufficiently explicit. What I wished to say was simply that genius is a sort of illuminating quality of the mind inherent in those of constitutionally inflammable natures, and whose conceptions are not of that ambiguous and disputable kind which may be said"
"Hold on, Artemus." interrupted Mark. "It is useless for you to repeat your definition. The wine or the brandy or the whisky or some other thing has gone to my head. Tell it to me some other time, or, better still, write it down for me and I'll study it at my leisure."
"Good!" cried Artemus, his face beaming with pleasure. "I'll give it to you tomorrow in black and white. I have been much misunderstood in this matter, and it is important that I should set myself right. You see that to the eye of a person of a warm and inflammable nature, and in whose self-luminous mind ideas arise that are by no means confined to the material which conception tarnishes, but may be"
"For God's sake!" cried Mark, "if you say that again you'll drive me mad."
The general burst of laughter which followed this feeling and half angry protest made it plain to Mark that Artemus had been set to work on him with malice aforethought, and that all present were in the plot and had been amusing themselves at his expense.

A WONDER! DEXTER, NEBR.
In the city of Omaha, on the 10th of July:
"After years of ill health, I am pleased to tell you that your treatment has been remarkably effective. At first, I thought it was impossible. My limbs were so swollen, my feet were covered with dropsy. My heart pounded and boated so hard that it kept me in constant pain. Whenever I wore or exercised, a catarrh of the throat caused me rent and breathlessness. It felt as if I were carrying a heavy burden on my head. Your mild remedies have almost cured me. I warmly thank you for your efforts and your kind interest in my case."
A TESTIMONIAL FROM MR. JULIUS T. FOSTNER:
Mr. Julius T. Fostner, known as the "father of printing" in Omaha, says this:
"Last fall, my catarrh became serious enough to make me entirely deficient in the right ear, with choking in the nose, throat, and head. Month after month, my condition worsened, to the point that Dr. Shurman gave me great relief and very shortly rid me of my troubles, and perfectly tailored my hearing. The result was thorough and skillful, and relieved most of my distressing conditions. I heartily commend the skill and business methods of the physicians of the Comstock Hotel."

Copeland and Shepard to the public. Their treatment in his case was thorough and skillful, relieving most of his distressing conditions.
A TESTIMONIAL FROM MR. JOHN ROYD:
Mr. John Royd, son of the late ex-Sheriff J.K. Royd, was also a victim of the dreaded disease, catarrh, and after suffering for some years, he found relief through Dr. Shurman's treatment.

"Tlio talks ono hcnrs on the streets about
A receiver for the Union Pacific , " said nn of-
flclal of the company , "Is decidedly prema
ture. No court would appoint a receiver un
less It had talcen Into consideration the
Varied Interests represented , flrst-mortgago
.bond holders , creditors , the govern
ment , nnd the roads operated by
the company , to say nothing
of countless other interests not appearing
directly on the surface. Hover-ending liti
gation would grow out of n receivership for
the Union Pacific , and It Isn't reasonable to
n-smno that the Omaha ty llcpubllcan Val
ley , the Union .Pacific" , Denver & Gulf ,
Orogo'n Short Line & Utah Norther , St.
Joseph & Grand Island nnd the other
hrauchos would permit n total stranger to

minister the affairs. The government
would have a say in the innttor ,
nnd It U just possible the interstate law
plvos each state u volco In the matter so far
nj protecting the miles of road within the
etnto. 'Complication after complication
would ensue nnd by the time the company's
obligations wore Bottled nothing would be
loft except the Iron nnd thn fish tilatcs.
"Tlicro Is no moro reason for a receiver
now than nt any time In 'tho road's
History. 'SVe are mooting our obligations

Idle in our shops and roundhouses , dud in

await the movement of the now crop.
. "This is the condition that confronts our
railroad peoplo. Mr. Mink , who goes to
lloston to report on the situation , will prob
ably make so mo recommendations nnd they
will undoubtedly bo adopted. But a re
ceivership at this lime I think entirely out
of the question. "
Lot Thorn < ! < > to Farming.
J. K. Buchanan of the Elkhoru said , after
rondlngTiiB BEE'S specials from Denver re
garding the situation , "there mny not bo
enough farming land tu the valleys of Colorado
rado to warrant minors turning their atten
tion to farming , hut the same conditions do
not exist ns to the prnlrlo states.
"Through the land olllccs of Nollgh ,
O'Neill , Valentino and Chadron 23,000 farms
of 1GO acres onch may bo h.ul for the entry
fees which I think nro 514. Free homestead
. lands which only require careful farming to
make as rich ns the lands adjoining them.
When the Elkhorn built through to the
Black Hills , the counties of Hall , Brown ,
ilock , Cherry. Sheridan , Dawos and Sioux ,
outside of the settlement at O'Neill , had
scarcely 100 Inhabitants. Now these com-
blued counties have a population of nearly
50.000. These people have made homes for
themselves and are now Independent of
almost every ono lu the position thov occupy.
Suppose they did got the pick of the land ,
thrro Is still loft enough land for 15,000 people
plo , and good land , too. which only needs i
careful farming to make rich. The people i
who will go Into that country today will 1
got the bcncllt of schools , churches ,
good roads nnd In n sense will ho better off
( lliiiu the pioneers who began life on these
iiralrlns scarce' n. decade nip. Farming i ?
'hard'work ' , but tlio' man who would ruthc'r
starve than do any hard work is not the man
that Colorado of Nebraska wants. It is a
-fact that cannot bo refuted , the farmer has
always a market for what he raises moro )
than the cost of raising said products. Ho t
| ! H moro Independent than his urban neigh-
'bor ' who today feels the depression while
the farmer serenely looks on. If he has no
market for his crops he can cut what he
raises. Starvation has no terrors for him ,
Herein , then , It seems to mo , ts the solution
to the present condition of affairs In tha
mining towns of Colorado. Let the miners
turn tholr attention to farming. "

The .railroads are now advertising
the harvest homo excursions which
have been arranged for August " - ,
September 12 and October 10. Cir
culars. pamphlets and tlyers are being
distributed about the country calling atten
tion of eastern communities to the advan
tages which Nebraska , South Dakota , Wyo
ming offer to the settler. Nebraska , which
promises tu have the greatest corn crop In
its history Holds out glittering Inducements
to the eastern farmer who desires to leave
the settled portions of the east for larger
prospects In tbo west.
Mr. Francis , speaking of the excursions
said that it wns iinxmiblo | for the railroads
to cull attention to the many advantageous
districts traversed by his road , but was
compelled to speak generally ot the situ
ation. "Individual sections should look
after tholr individual interests. They should
organize and send men with advertising
matter Into the eastern states , with a view
of Inducing Immigration. In that way all
sections would bo represented and grantor
results could bo accomplished. "

"Ho that hath n board Is moro than n
youth , nnd ho that Rath no board is less
than a man. "
Why men with ugly mouths : on passant ,
should shave , Is something which no follow
can understand.
Quito a number of Omaha men have sue-
dumbou to the' Idea that they 'nro moro
"fetching" with clean shaven faces , and ns
a result are sacrificing what , to many , Is nn
iniuprtnot element of good looks. Women
'have , been accused of blindly following the
dictates of fashion. It is true they adopt
extravagant styles of costumes , but It is n
question if the women ot today would Klvo
glvo up any natural adornment which con
tributed In the most Infinitesimal degree to
tholr good looks. Many men of many minds ,
nnd some of no minds at nil. nro llcelng to
the barber , who with ruthless hand nnd
razor keen deprives them ot what was once
u source of prido.
The man with the luxuriant mustache , the
callow youth who after many days nnd
much anguish of spirit has succeeded In lur
ing a llttlo''down" upon his upper lip "leave
their mirth and their employment" and
await 'their turn to bo shorn of'
this hirsute Insignia of manhood.
A mustuelib Is a boon to a man with nn ugly
mouth , and ho should think twice , thrice ,
aye , twdntv times , before submitting to the
raor the shield which Kind nature has fur-
nisho him.
The bcatity of n handsome mouth Is enhanced -
hancod by n "mustache ; white teeth always
appear whiter when shaded by a softly
drooping , uiustaoho.
Apart from Its mission ns a bcautiflor ,
thereIs another point In favor of retaining
the mustache , if there is any truth In the
Gorman proverb that "Kin kuss ohno
Schuurrbart , . 1st wlo cm "ol ohno
Salzkissing will sink Into n
state , ot Innocuous desuetude , for few
womeh will cheerfully become a party to a
transaction as flat and unprofitable as eating
an egg without salt , wherefore It behooves
"tho sons' of men the youth lu life's green
springnnd ho who goes in the full strength
of years , ! ' to ponder well this point before
shaving.1/ . ,
tnillspen n1 > lo Adjunct to Mnnly IJpnutj" .
To appreciate how much a mustache or
board'mldk.to a man's appearance observe
hlui bcTo'ro and after , shaving. A certain
young maii who \ras the fortunate owner of a
line mu'staciio and. whose face was ex
pressive"of "frankness and genial
warmth before Ko fell a victim to the
present fnd. After a visit to the barbo
presto ! tho-ponial aspect was gone and in
its place was a hard , cruel look , and there
wore Hues about the mouth indicative of
traits formerly "unsuspected.
Study a man's' mouth , from a safe
tanco , and you crtn read there a history of his
passionslovo. ; . hate , wrath , all leave their
imprint in the/ lines about the mouth.
A mustache is not becoming to all mon.
Each man should judge for himself whether
his face requires a beard or a mustache. A
man with , a flat , broad nose should not wear
a mustache , as it gives him a brutal ap
pearance.
This fad of- shaving the mustache , in al
probability , will not become popular. The
'
youtiK'man with the "ah ! there" glint in his
eye will hot part with his mustache , for ho
regards it as the apple of his o.vo and a
potent factor In attracting the attention of
the coquettishly inclined young woman ; It
Is a solace to him in moments of rclloctlor.
, .nnd a refuge when , embarrassed.
.During the rcigus'of-Louis'XHT. ' and Louis
XIV. mustaches reached the zenith of their
popularity. An elegant mustache was con
sidered u sesame to the hearts of the fair
sex , and the gallants of that period spent
tlmo and thought upon tlioin.
Although all the ancient Inhabitants of
Europe worn beards at the earliest period of
which any record "exists , the style of wear
ing the face clean shaven with the excop-
tlon'of the upper lip nas flourished during
certain periods. Julius Ccesar is authority
for the statement that the Britons merely
allowed thomustache to grow. The Entr-
llsh prin9cs"were in' the habit of wearing
the mustache until the conquest of William
the First , who compelled them to cut it off
in accordance with the Norman fashion.
During the-flfthicoutury the Franks wore
long mustaches and In thu tlmo of Charle
magne the upper classes wcro distinguished
by wearing mustaches. Poles and Hun
garian's'-as a rule" , wore mustaches.
No Jt.irbor Shops in Kilen.
Boards wore .introduced by Adam , for
there Is a tradition to the effect that ho was
-created with a board , and they have been
'
moro or less' popular since. They nro gener
ally worn by men > vho have crossed the
merldian'of ' life , but frequently young men ,
for business purposes , cultivate a board ,
-hoping thereby to acquire an air of wisdom
and iusplro confldonco in their patrons.
Among the nation ? of the cast the beard Is
'
a symbol of.'dlgnlty and wisdom. The fashion
of wearing tbo beard has varied at different
times. Tno monumental oftllgies of dead kings
display the dlfferont styles worn by them.
In ' the reign of Hdnry IV. of Franco there
we're various styles distinguished , as the
pointcd'beard , tnosqunro beard , the round
beard , theaurcplo.board , the swallow-tailed
board aiid.tho artichoke loaf beard.
Ono of the most famous beards of history
was that of th 'German " artist , John Mayo ,
who was called" John , the Boarded ; It
reached the ground nnd ho was obliged to
tuck it into his girdle. Homer mentions the
white beard of Nestor. King itobcrt of
Franco was remarkable for the possession of
ono of the longest and whitest beards of his
day. In the song of Itoland. Charlemagne Is
called1 the 'King with the grl/.zly beard ,
There Is1 a story told by Plutarch
of an old Laconlan , who , on being
asked why ho lot his board
ijrow to suci a length replied : "It is that
having my whlto. beard continually before
my eyes , I may do nothing unworthy of Its
whiteness. " A remark which many festive
gray beards would do well to remember.
llonriU us Client i'rotoutom.
Besides Doing ornamental the beard is a
protection against many dlsoaucs of the
throat and lungs , and the wearing of u beard
Is especially recommended to these men who
are employed in dusty trades , such as mil
lers , bnkors , masons and engineers.
In the Lancet of November U , ItiGO , there Is
an article ou tup subject by Mr. Chadwlck ,
who says ho was very much struck by seeing
Botno blacksmiths who vvoro boards ,
with their mustaches discolored b.v
a quantity of Iron dust which
had accumulated among the Imirs.
Hoflootlng upon this ho concluded that had
not the dust boon so arrested by a natural
respirator , It must have found Its way Into
the lungs , and therefore razors should be
avoided by men engaged in labor where
there Is a great deal of dust living.
Although the beard ia an ornament sun-
posed to belong wholly to the stonier BOX ,
there are instances on record where women
have grown luxuriant beards. Burns. In

Ho found thirty squatters on the streets and

MIXOLOGISTS DISAGREE.
liartenilera Divided lu Sentiment About
Wearing the Whitn Apron.
The Bartenders union , since Its inception
some three months ago , has not had very
smooth sailing , as most of thu experienced
"mixologists" have refused to join , claiming
that the organization was merely a ruse to
glvo men who are only occasionally employed
n chance to got a place to work and obtain
good wages. Frantic appeals have been
made to the Central-Labor union for assist
ance In boycotting saloons that do not em
ploy union bartenders or men wearing tbo
white apron.
Thus far the appeal has not struck a responsive
sponsive chord in the hearts oftho members
of the Central Labor union. The barten
ders' organization has therefore furnished a
list of BO called "scab" saloons , the propri
etors of which they denounce as not only
hostllo to organized labor but who do no
wish working men.to . pntrqnlzo them. The
union regularly publishes this list In r
weekly paper in order to bring the recal
cltrants to terms. About twenty men , it I
saldt compose the entire union.

aud Is wondering what the agitation was
started for If nothing moro was to ho ac

This gentleman had once heard of , n cqun-
cllman named Chris Spocht , nnd a great
scheme Chris hail in his mind for compel
ling the telegraph nnd telephone companies
to contribute to the revenue of the city by

Aknoit Aliuut Atucimiutiitii.
Not many weeks ago , the Inquisitive man
ascertained , the city council was engaged la
the laudable enterprise 01 taking stops to
levy an assessment for taxation purposes
against the property of the railway com
panies within the right-of-way , the Wagner
and Pullman palace car companies nud the
telegraph companies. The assessor hnd
overlooked these and the council Intended
forcing the companies to turn Into the treas
ury of the city several thousand dollars to
hulp along the maintenance of the munici
pal machinery. lie found that the Union
Pacific had rushed In to the federal court and
secured n temporary injunction which for
bade the city placing the property of that
company ou the tax rolls. Ho. also
ascertained that immediately after
the serving of the 'papers the coun
cil had stopped proceedings for two
weeks pending a hearing of the motion to
dissolve the temporary ordor. The two
WOCKS have come and gene many times over
yet the Injunction stnnds and the council
has evidently forgotten all about the other
companies and the proposed taxation. At
the tlmo the adjournment was taken it wns
expressly agreed that another mooting
should bu held within two or throe weeks ,
aud that in case the hearing on the Uiilon
Pacillu Injunction had not bqcn secured the
property'of the other companies would bo
assessed , notwithstanding the Injunction ,
which affected only the ono company. The
mooting has not boon held , and there exists
a deadllko sllenco regarding taxation against
these companies.
Mlrajo of a Market Homo.
The man of the inquisitive turn of mind
also heard that some months ago there wna
n lively demand for the erection of a publid
market houso. lie found that the stto wav
agreed upon after weeks of delay and that
finally the city engineer and building inspec

are novy doing so. What ho sought to ascer

whether the building will bo completed m

CltyAttorncy Connell arrived homo yester
day morning from Chicago , nnd will remain
until the latter part of the month. A greater
portion of Mr. Council's tlmo during the
present week -has been la Item up with the
Pullman Palace Car company tax caso.
The case grows out of the effort of the-
city list spring to force the collection of de
linquent personal taxes of the company for
the years from 1885 to 18S3 , inclusive. The
company has resisted the payment of , the
taxes und the suit now pending In the
United States circuit court was brought by
the company to restrain the city from col

NO DEMAND FOR A RECEIVER
Practical Talk Concerning the Protection of
the O'Fallon Eotonico.
SITUATION OF THE UNION PACIFIC
Politially Tiring Dunes to Protect
the Property During the Preliminary Depressions
General Buchanan
Adrian to Colorado's Minors.
"There's talk hours on the streets about
A receiver for the Union Pacific," said an official of the company, "Is decidedly premature. No court would appoint a receiver unless it had taken into consideration the varied interests represented, first-mortgage bond holders, creditors, the government, and the roads operated by the company, to say nothing of countless other interests not appearing directly on the surface. Host-endless litigation would grow out of a receivership for the Union Pacific, and it isn't reasonable to assume that the Omaha to Republican Valley, the Union Pacific, Denver & Gulf, Oregon Short Line & Utah Northern, St. Joseph & Grand Island and the other brands would permit a total stranger to the properties to step in and administer the affairs. The government would have a say in the matter, and it is just possible the interstate law provokes each state a vote in the matter so far as protecting the miles of road within the state. Complications after complications would ensue and by the time the company's obligations were settled nothing would be left except the iron and the fish plates.
"There is no more reason for a receiver now than at any time in the road's history. We are meeting our obligations as they fall due. We are cutting down expenses wherever possible and everything is being done that can be done to counteract the decrease in earnings. In the shops, wherever a man can be spared, he is laid off and only essential necessary work will be done. Work will be pushed to one side to meet the percentage of reduction required by the officials.
"One hundred and twenty-five engines are idle in our shops and roundhouses, and in some of the yards a thousand freight cars await the movement of the new crop.
"This is the condition that confronts our railroad people. Mr. Mink, who goes to Boston to report on the situation, will probably make some recommendations and they will undoubtedly be adopted. But a receiver at this time I think entirely out of the question."
Let Them Turn to Farming.
J. K. Buchanan of the Elkhorn said, after reading The BEE's specials from Denver regarding the situation, "there may not be enough farming land in the valleys of Colorado to warrant miners turning their attention to farming, but the same conditions do not exist as to the prairie states.
"Through the land offices of Niobrara, O'Neill, Valentine, and Chadron, 23,000 farms of 160 acres each may be had for the entry fees which I think are $14. Free homestead lands which only require careful farming to make as rich as the lands adjoining them. When the Elkhorn built through to the Black Hills, the counties of Hall, Brown, Stock, Cherry, Sheridan, Dawes, and Sioux, outside of the settlement at O'Neill, had scarcely 100 inhabitants. Now these combined counties have a population of nearly 50,000. These people have made homes for themselves and are now independent of almost everyone in the positions they occupy. Suppose they did get the pick of the land, there is still left enough land for 15,000 people, and good land, too, which only needs careful farming to make rich. The people who will go into that country today will get the benefits of schools, churches, good roads, and in a sense will be better off than the pioneers who began life on these barren scarce lands a decade ago. Farming is hard work, but the man who would rather starve than do any hard work is not the man that Nebraska of Colorado wants. It is a fact that cannot be refuted, the farmer has always a market for what he raises more than the cost of raising said products. He is more independent than his urban neighbor who today feels the depression while the farmer serenely looks on. If he has no market for his crops he can cut what he raises. Starvation has no terrors for him.
Herein, then, it seems to me, is the solution to the present condition of affairs in the mining towns of Colorado. Let the miners turn their attention to farming."
Harvest Excursions.
The railroads are now advertising the harvest home excursions which have been arranged for August 26, September 12, and October 10. Circulars, pamphlets, and flyers are being distributed about the country calling attention of eastern communities to the advantages which Nebraska, South Dakota, Wyoming offer to the settler. Nebraska, which promises to have the greatest corn crop in its history, holds out glittering inducements to the eastern farmer who desires to leave the settled portions of the east for larger prospects in the west.
Mr. Francis, speaking of the excursions said that it was impossible for the railroads to call attention to the many advantageous districts traversed by his road, but was compelled to speak generally of the situation. "Individual sections should look after their individual interests. They should organize and send men with advertising matter into the eastern states, with a view of inducing immigration. In that way all sections would be represented and great results could be accomplished."
D. Burtey, one of the cleverest railway men in the country, general agent of the Union Pacific at Salt Lake, is in the city on instance, industry, and a determination to be independent. If directed toward farming, General Buchanan yesterday, "will give the homeless miners of Colorado a home within two years."
Sam Hutchison, traveling passenger agent of the Union Pacific, returned from Philadelphia Friday, where he went to attend upon the illness and death of his wife, who was buried last Saturday. Two children, 4 and 8 years of age, mourn the loss of a devoted mother.
Judge Wilcox of St. Louis has decided the case of the State of Missouri vs. the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad company in favor of the defendant. The action was to recover $100,000, interest and principal, to be due from defendant as the successor of the 'Southwest Branch' of the Pacific Railroad company on a guarantee of the latter to repay to the state $100,000 as needed for its construction.
Last week the total outbound shipments from Chicago, except live stock, amounted to 47,470 tons, against 31,500 tons for the preceding week and 60,000 tons for the corresponding week last year. The roads carried tons as follows: Michigan Central, 6,630; Wabash, 2,817; Lake Shore, 8,861; Fort Wayne, 6,000; Baltimore & Ohio, 2,700; Grand Trunk, 4,451; Chicago & Erie, 6,040; Burlington, 3,820. Total, 47,400. Lake shipments amounted to 7,908 tons, against 6,700 tons for the preceding week.
The supreme court of Tennessee has affirmed the opinion of the chancellor in the celebrated case of the State vs. the Mobile & Ohio Railroad, for the back taxes since 1832. The road claimed exemption under the twenty-sixth year exemption clause of the charter and the provision for 8 percent dividend yearly on the stock. The twenty-sixth years expired in 1880, and the road fell back under the 8 percent dividend provision. The chancellor gave a verdict for the state and counted through which the road passed for $110,000. The supreme court modified the decision, reducing it to $35,000.
WESTERN NEWS AFTER THE SOFT OF THE JOURNAL Southeastern.
CHICAGO, Aug. 6. If over a railroad had a lively future in view, that road was the Jackson, Jacksonville Southeastern. It has long been regarded with the bitterest feeling by other western lines, and now that it has been dropped by the Atchison, the Western Passenger association lines have shown their ire and are after it with both eyes. A proposition to boycott it has been made, and was referred to Charming Caldwell upon his return from New York the early part of next week. The general opinion of the Western Pacific association lines is strongly against boycotting, but in this instance it happens to run the other way with remarkable unanimity. The Alton is merely awaiting the action of the Atchison before beginning an active campaign against the Jacksonville Southeastern. The road has been juggling with eastern as well as western rates and as a consequence it is without a single friend east or west, and every line with which it has done business is just now expressing an ardent desire to dance on the Jacksonville Southeastern's grave.
Earnings of the Burlington & Northern for June show an increase of gross earnings of $10,837. For the fourth week of July, the earnings of the Missouri Pacific decreased by $207,000; the decrease of the whole month being $862,000.
Farmers' Point Were a Success.
NEW YORK, Aug. 5. It was learned today that all the trunk line roads were in favor of running cheap excursion trains to Chicago for another month. The schedule as at present arranged closes on August 10. The extension will be to September 10. There are a few railroads, men who declare now that the excursions are a success beyond expectation.
Dodge County Veterans Anxious to Secure Home in the Cherokee Strip.
FREMONT, Aug. G. [Special to The Bee.] An organization is being effected here by Dodge County men to make a systematic and concerted movement, upon the Cherokee Strip when the proper time arrives, many old veterans being among the number. But they do not look forward to the "scramble" with any degree of complaisance. They desire that congress shall so modify the act authorizing the opening as to apportion the whole domain by lot to applicants for actual settlement; In accordance with this proposition, letters have been sent to each of the Nebraska congressmen to use their influence to that end.
D. M. Allen, Fremont's only entry for the great veteran race at Indianapolis, is practicing very day and has reduced his time to a extraordinarily low figure. We hope to grasp the grand prize.
The merchants of Fremont are casting their eyes over the majestic fields of corn in Dodge County and fancy that they see a solution for all their financial perplexities. If corn brings a good price, the Nebraska farmers will hold the key to the situation. Every debt they owe in this city will be liquidated and they will buy of the comforts of life more than ever before.
The experiment now being tried by the city in blowing out the points of the driven well system is proving an unquestionable success. The system had threatened almost a complete failure, as not more than one third of the water first realized could be procured. The fault was that the points of the driven wells had become so badly stopped up with clay, sand, mud, and rust as to seriously impede the flow through them. But the tests already made have demonstrated that the city has a perpetual water supply, providing care is taken to keep the points in order.
The Equitable Building and Loan association held an important meeting last night and advanced to its stockholders over $60,000. The association is now eighty-eight months old and is probably one of the strongest local organizations in the state. It numbers about 1,000 members and has advanced over $180,000 to home builders in the city. It is exclusively local and has caused the erection of over 100 dwellings, besides saving nearly as many homes by lifting the mortgages therefrom.

No Depression in Brookings.
BROOKINGS, Aug. S. [Special to THE BEE.] While in a general way this city feels the hard times in common with other parts of the country, the effect is not as noticeable as might be expected. Building operations have continued without interruption, none of the factories have closed, and the general outlook for business this fall is encouraging.
Open war has been declared by the Brookings Daily Express against the country press and the columns of the different papers are teeming with caustic articles regarding the situation.
The annual "log-rolling" of the Woodmen of the World will be held at the Chautauqua grounds on the 10th. Large delegations are expected from other points and the occasion promises to be memorable in the history of the association.
As the full comes nearer, the prop of candidates for county offices continues to show marked signs of increase. There are now no less than six republican candidates for county clerk, seven for register of deeds, four for county judge, and an equal number for the other offices, to say nothing of the numerous candidates from the independent and democratic ranks.

Death of Grand Commander Batchelor Oath Discovered
Since the Regret in Masonic Circles.
ORDER OF THE WORLD GIVES A PICNIC

Dear Fellow Are Doing A. O. U. W.
Recent event of the secret society circles.
The death of Dr. James Cunningham
Bachelor, grand commander of the supreme council of the Scottish Rite of Free Masonry of the southern jurisdiction, has brought forth most sincere and profound expressions of regret from the thirty-third degree Masons of that jurisdiction and from thousands of persons in the order and out who have known the deceased personally and otherwise.
Dr. Bachelor's death occurred in Washington, D.C., at 3:30 o'clock Friday morning, July 28, at the House of the Temple, corner of Third and E streets northwest, after an illness of several months. While his death was expected, and the announcement came with little surprise, his loss will be none the less widely and sincerely mourned. Dr. Batchelor's sister, Mrs. Hutchins of Montgomery, Ala., was with her brother from the date of his being taken to his bed, May 15 last, and remained at his bedside until death came to peacefully end his sufferings Friday morning.
Private funeral services, to which only thirty-third degree Masons were admitted, because of want of sufficient room, were held at the house in the evening, and Saturday night the remains were placed aboard the cars and taken to New Orleans, the former home of the deceased, accompanied by Mrs. Hutchins, Cleric Long of the West Virginia supreme court and Grand Secretary Fred Webber of Washington. There were full Jewish services, the most beautiful and impressive of all funeral services, held over the body at New Orleans at midnight Monday. Tuesday the body was interred at New Orleans by the grand lodge of Louisiana.
Dr. Batchelor will be succeeded as grand commander by Lieutenant Commander Philip Crosby Tucker of Galveston, Tex., until the meeting of the supreme council at St. Louis, Mo., next October, when the grand commander will be formally elected.
James Cunningham Batchelor was born of English parents in Quebec, Can., July 10, 1818. The family moved to western New York when he was quite young, and shortly afterward to Alabama. The deceased was educated in St. Louis, Mo., and for many years practiced medicine in Alabama. In 1860 Dr. Batchelor went, with the Montgomery (Ala.) True Blues to the Florida war, and enjoyed a pension for his services in that war.
In 1860 he organized a battery of Browning men at New Orleans, and as the captain served with them in the Confederate army. He was taken prisoner and confined on Ship Island in the Gulf of Mexico where he incurred a lameness, which over afterward affected him. He was married, but his wife and children, two sons, died years ago.
Dr. Batchelor was initiated as an entered apprentice in Eureka Lodge, Alabama, April 11, 1840, passed to the degree of fellow craft a week later, and was raised to the sublime degree of master Mason the following month. He became a royal arch chapter member in Polar Star Royal Arch Chapter No. 21, August 17, 1859. He became a royal select master in Orleans Council No. 4, in the same year, and was dubbed Knight Templar in Jacques de Molay commandery No. 2, February 17, 1860, and entered the priesthood February 15, 1861.
He took the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite degree, fourth to thirty-third inclusive, in 1850, was advanced to the honorary thirty-third degree February 14, 1857, and became an active master in 1859. He was elected grand secretary of the grand lodge and grand chapter from 1857 to 1860 inclusive, and was representative of the grand lodges of Canada, Kentucky, Oregon, and Missouri, and representative of the grand chapters of Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. Dr. Batchelor was elected grand commander to succeed the late General Albert Pike at the last session of the supreme council, held in the city of Washington last October.
Ancient Order of United Workmen.
Several lodges of the order in the Elkhorn Valley picnic-ed at Elkhorn yesterday. The attendance was large, all of the lodges near sending large delegations.
Friday, August 25, the various lodges of the Ancient Order of United Workmen in Hitchcock county will hold a big union picnic at Hilton's park in Falls City. It promises to be the largest affair of this nature ever held in this portion of the state. Reduced rates have been made on both the B. & M. and Missouri Pacific railroads and from 5,000 to 6,000 people are expected. The principal features of the program are a monster parade at 10 a.m. and addresses by J. G. Tate, grand master workman of the state, and other prominent speakers. A cordial invitation is extended to all fraternities and no pains will be spared to give every one a royal time. The new Coghill opera house will also reopen on that evening.
The Workmen of Butler county will hold a picnic in David City, August 10, "under the charge of George Loomis of Elkhorn. The B. & M. will make connections with the Northwestern going and coming. Excursion rates have been secured. All members of the order are cordially invited to attend.
Probably one of the most interesting and instructive meetings over held at a regular session of a subordinate lodge of the Ancient Order of United Workmen was held by No. 18 Thursday night. This lodge is notable for its progressive work and at each session usually introduces some new feature of interest to its members and for the body of the order, but the meeting Thursday night was exceptionally interesting, as the all-important salary question was under discussion. This subject was ably handled by prominent speakers, members of the lodge, Hon. W. H. Alexander, member of the house, Hon. W. J. Broatch, Charles Hunicutt, master workman, John S. King, J. W. Can, and C. E. Reynolds, and visiting brothers Grand Master Workman J. O. Tuttle of Hastings, F. G. Summons of Strom, and S. R. Patten of Omaha.
To hear such an economic question of great national importance discussed from the lofty eminence where it belongs and without dragging it down into common everyday politics, was not only novel but edifying.
The Knights' Sword and Helmet speaks of the Omaha lodge as follows: Forest lodge, Omaha, Neb., has a plan of paying sick benefits that contains many excellent features. For the first week of sickness they only pay $1, but for every week thereafter they pay $5. Their argument in its favor is that a brother does not feel the need of an extra week's beneft, but if sick for a long period he will need it far more, and the payments will be of greater benefit, while the lodge treasury does not have continual bills upon it to be no trials for a single week.
Gov. McKmley of Ohio was made a Knight of Pythias at Columbus. Hojuuchi or Champion lodge of that city, and the ceremonies were especially elaborate in honor of the candidate.
Supreme Chancellor Blackwell has decided that any member of the order can become a member of the Order of Pythian Sisters and it does not conflict with his obligations.
The grand lodge of Iowa meets at Muscatine Tuesday of this week and remains in session until Friday.
The supreme keeper of records and seals announces that the order is increasing its membership at the rate of 1,000 per week.
The crowd that gathered at Virginia Beach last Thursday evening, attracted by the social event organized by the Order of the World, numbered approximately 800,000, according to a Pythian journal. It announced that this was the largest turnout since the founding of the order, and it placed the responsibility upon the master for the error.
The event, a picnic at Courtland Beach, was indeed a merry gathering, as reported by the Omaha Daily News. The weather was ideal, and fully 1000 people were present, enjoying the company and the various activities offered until their departure. The number in attendance probably exceeded 2000, comprising members of the order and their families, who spent a pleasant afternoon under the trees. After lunch, dancing in the pavilion was commenced and continued until a late hour. The floor was crowded at all times with dancers, who found it very pleasant.
The raffle, organized by the North Omaha lodge, was a success, raising a significant sum for the lodge's treasury. The American Order of Steam Engineers has also completed arrangements to become tenants of the Myrtle hall in the Commonallih block, and will shortly take up its quarters there.
At a meeting of David Gilbert Council No. 2, held in its hall on Tuesday, August 1, the following resolutions were adopted:
Whoever, The upstanding Chief Engineer of the neighborhood has in his infallible wisdom to condemn from amongst our brothers and co-workers. Past Supreme Deputy Chief Engineer, Ulichart Co.; Chairman, That David Gilbert Council No. 3 has lost one of the founders of the order in this state, and one faring was at the head of all misconceptions for the advancement of the order; and be it
Resolved, That the wife and family of our departed brother bear the sympathy of this council and the order at this time of sorrow; and further be it
Resolved, That the dispensation be draped for thirty days and a copy of these resolutions be mailed to the family, the city paper, and the official organ, and shall be printed upon the minutes of this council.

Modern Woodmen of America enjoyed a picnic at Bluffington Beach on Thursday. Several hundred were in attendance and had a very pleasant time. The evening was devoted to dancing.
State Deputy Head Consul Wood organized a lodge at Valley on Saturday night, known as the Ackerman camp, Modern Woodmen of America, with sixteen members. About twenty-five Woodmen from Elkhorn and Waterloo were present and assisted in the organization.
The Modern Woodmen picnic at Morse Bluff has been postponed from August 4 until Friday, August 11. Invitation is extended to everyone to attend the picnic. There will be lots of fun and refreshments on tap.
Preparations for the Woodmen picnic at Calhoun on Wednesday, August 10, are nearly complete. Indications point to a very large attendance. In addition to the large number of Woodmen that will go from this city, big delegations from the Council Bluffs and South Omaha camps will join the picnicers. Everything promises that this will be the largest and most successful picnic Calhoun has had this season.
Knoxall council 148 of South Omaha is completing arrangements for its second annual outing, which will take place on August 10 in the form of a garden party at Syndicate park. Some ten outdoor games and races will be played and run. Handsome and valuable prizes with an aggregate value of $100, donated by the prominent businessmen of the Magic City, will be presented to the successful contestants. A platform 25x40 feet has been constructed, and dancing, music, and other amusements will afford entertainment to all.
The committee in charge, consisting of Messrs. Henry J. House, J. C. Carlyle, B. Strathman, David Stuhr, and Harry Tagg, does not hesitate to spend money, time, and personal effort in making this garden party a royal success! Invitations have been extended to the members of Omaha and Council Bluffs, as well as their friends at large, and a large attendance is expected.
Indispensable Order of Odd Fellows.

Cheap way to visit the World's fair, stereopticon view at Courtland beach.
On Tuesday night, there will be fireworks on the water.
August is the month for picnics and boat parties.
The manager has moved his office under the switch brick.
The Omaha guards will give an exhibition drill at the beach on Thursday night of this week.
Never before has the southern floor of the pavilion been so crowded as on Thursday night during the Order of the World dance. Many of the easterly resorts complain of dull times, but the popularity of Courtland beach seems to increase as the season advances.
The Good Templars of this city and South Omaha will assemble at the beach on Tuesday and enjoy the cold water privileges to the full extent.
The evenings of the past week have been rather cool, but not unfavorable, the aggregate number of bathers has been greatly as large as that of the previous week. Private dancing ponds are becoming quite popular, but they do not consist of about sixty couples before Manager Griffiths will allow them the privilege of the pavilion. The ring board is in position at the carousel and everybody grunts for a ring. Those who succeed in getting a brass hug got a free ride. It's lots of fun for young and old.
A telegram was received yesterday stating that a new balloon will arrive today in Omaha, in which case there will be a balloon ascension and perhaps a couple of parachute drops today at the beach.
Friday of this week, Druid camp, Woodmen of the World, will be at the beach. The latest and most practical sports on land and water will be introduced and a new and pleasant time is anticipated.

MASSACRE OF MUSTACHES AND BEARDS
Orion Whiskers Admired Encouraged Men
Episode at Edenton in 1871
An adjunct to Manly Beauty
To appreciate how much a mustache or beard mid to a man's appearance, observe him before and after, shaving. A certain young man who was the fortunate owner of a fine mustache and whose face was expressive of "frankness and genial warmth" before, fell a victim to the present trend. After a visit to the barber, presto! the pompous aspect was gone and in its place was a hard, cruel look, and there were lines about the mouth indicative of traits formerly unsuspected.
Study a man's mouth, from a safe distance, and you can read there a history of his passions, love, hate, wrath, all leave their imprint in the lines about the mouth.
A mustache is not becoming to all men. Each man should judge for himself whether his face requires a beard or a mustache. A man with a flat, broad nose should not wear a mustache, as it gives him a brutal appearance.
This fad of shaving the mustache, in all probability, will not become popular. The young man with the "ah! there" glint in his eye will not part with his mustache, for he regards it as the apple of his eye and a potent factor in attracting the attention of the coquettishly inclined young woman; It is a solace to him in moments of reflector, and a refuge when embarrassed.
During the reigns of Louis XVI and Louis XIV, mustaches reached the zenith of their popularity. An elegant mustache was considered a sesame to the hearts of the fair sex, and the gallants of that period spent time and thought upon them.
Although all the ancient inhabitants of Europe wore beards at the earliest period of which any record exists, the style of wearing the face clean shaven with the exception of the upper lip has flourished during certain periods. Julius Caesar is authority for the statement that the Britons merely allowed their mustaches to grow. The English princes were in the habit of wearing the mustache until the conquest of William the First, who compelled them to cut it off in accordance with the Norman fashion.
During the fifteenth century, the Franks wore long mustaches and in the time of Charles the Great, the upper classes were distinguished by wearing mustaches. Poles and Hungarians, as a rule, wore mustaches.
No Barber Shops in Spain.
Beards were introduced by Adam, for there is a tradition to the effect that he was created with a beard, and they have been more or less popular since. They are generally worn by men who have crossed the meridian of life, but frequently young men, for business purposes, cultivate a beard, hoping thereby to acquire an air of wisdom and inspire confidence in their patrons.
Among the nations of the east, the beard is a symbol of dignity and wisdom. The fashion of wearing the beard has varied at different times. The monumental effigies of dead kings display the different styles worn by them.
In the reign of Henry IV of France, there were various styles distinguished, as the pointed beard, the square beard, the round beard, the arched beard, the swallow-tailed beard, and the artichoke loaf beard.
One of the most famous beards of history was that of the German artist, John Mayo, who was called "John, the Boarded"; It reached the ground and he was obliged to tuck it into his girdle. Homer mentions the white beard of Nestor. King Robert of France was remarkable for the possession of one of the longest and whitest beards of his day. In the Song of Roland, Charlemagne is called the "King with the grizzly beard".
There is a story told by Plutarch of an old Laconian, who, on being asked why he let his beard grow to such a length, replied: "It is that having my white beard continually before my eyes, I may do nothing unworthy of its whiteness." A remark which many festive gray beards would do well to remember.
Bonus Client Protection.
Besides being ornamental, the beard is a protection against many diseases of the throat and lungs, and the wearing of a beard is especially recommended to these men who are employed in dusty trades, such as millers, bankers, masons, and engineers.
In the Lancet of November 1889, there is an article on the subject by Mr. Chadwick, who says he was very much struck by seeing some blacksmiths who wore beards, with their mustaches discolored by a quantity of iron dust which had accumulated among the hairs.
Hofstelling upon this he concluded that had not the dust been so arrested by a natural respirator, it must have found its way into the lungs, and therefore razors should be avoided by men engaged in labor where there is a great deal of dust living. Although the beard is an ornament supposed to belong wholly to the stronger sex, there are instances on record where women have grown luxuriant beards. Burns, in "A Wife as Willie Had," lists among other horrors "a wiskin beard about him," and Margaret, regent of the Netherlands under Philip II, wore a long moustache. M. L.

Young Women's Christian Association will be meeting Monday-evening, August 7, in the association don rooms, HIS McCague building. Every one interested is invited to be present, and all members are urged to attend, as important business is to be transacted.
The association has now had a two month trial, and is no longer an experiment. The number of those who visit the rooms daily and who come for information and obtain solid proof of the need for such a place, and the one great university present is to secure funds for carrying on the work. The present hard times are felt by all such organizations, but reconciliation will show how important it is that this association should be supported at such a time, when so many are being thrown out of employment. It is hoped that the citizens of Omaha will take an interest in this work and lend all possible assistance to it. The work so far has developed larger upon a few, making it somewhat burdensome. Any assistance, however slight, will be appreciated and all interested are asked to attend the meeting Monday night to consider plans for the future.

CROCKER'S BAD COIN.
One colored youth, giving his name as Joe Henry Crocker, entered United States District Attorney Baker's office yesterday morning, and wanted to have a baker, whose name he did not know, arrested for passing counterfeit money. He said he entered the baker's place of business at 1515 St. Mary's avenue on Thursday evening and made a purchase, tomorrow he found a $1 bill in payment. It was changed, and the plaintiff a short time afterward tendered the money to his landlady in payment for his board. She discovered that the coin was a counterfeit, and refused to take it. Crocker went back to the baker and demanded good money in place of the bogus dollar, but the latter insisted that he had not provided out the worthless dollar and declined to make it good.
The prosecuting Attorney said that he had no doubt of the guilt of the party who was alleged to have passed the coin, but that in view of the conflicting stories and the absence of the necessary witnesses it would be impossible to substantiate the charge of violating the law, and declined to take up the case. The coin was a wretched counterfeit, the milling being very defective and the general appearance of the dollar being noticeably bad, although the weight varied but little from a genuine dollar.
SQUATTERS MUST GO.
City Officials to Talk Declined Stops Again Against Shanty Town Residents.
The city forces will move on the river front squatters tomorrow morning, if present plans do not miscarry. Sergeant Sigwart has just completed a plat showing the location of the squatters remaining on the streets and alleys. Perhaps twenty of the squatters who were included in the Haworth settlement have removed. But two remain on Leavenworth street and they have promised to vacate within the next few days.
Sergeant Sigwart's plat takes in the territory between Jackson and Mason streets and the intersecting streets east of Sixth. He found thirty squatters on the streets and alleys in that territory. This plat will be turned over to Commissioner of Health Somers, who will have one of his men serve notice upon the individual occupants of each shanty to vacate within three days. At the end of the three days the squatters have four days in which to appear in court and show cause why a writ of objection should not issue. Dr. Somers says that the first stops will be followed up in any effective manner and he hopes within two or three weeks to have all of the squatters removed from the streets and alleys.
MIXOLOGISTS DISAGREE.
Bartenders Divided in Sentiment About Wearing the White Apron.
The Bartenders' union, since its inception some three months ago, has not had very smooth sailing, as most of the experienced "mixologists" have refused to join, claiming that the organization was merely a ruse to give men who are only occasionally employed a chance to get a place to work and obtain good wages. Frantic appeals have been made to the Central-Labor union for assistance in boycotting saloons that do not employ union bartenders or men wearing the white apron.
Thus far the appeal has not struck a responsive chord in the hearts of the members of the Central Labor union. The bartenders' organization has therefore furnished a list of so-called "scab" saloons, the proprietors of which they denounce as not only hostile to organized labor but who do not wish working men to patronize them. The union regularly publishes this list in its weekly paper in order to bring the recalcitrants to terms. About twenty men, it is said, compose the entire union.
MAY RESUME.
New Term in the American Saving Bank Financial Attention.
Receiver Thomas of the American Saving Bank received instructions from Lincoln yesterday morning to proceed immediately to wind up the affairs of that institution by converting everything into cash and paying up the depositors and other creditors of the bank. It is stated that this will probably take about a year, but that the first payment of about 15 percent will probably be forthcoming within sixty days.
President Carter, who is also president of the American Loan and Trust company, to which position he has been restored by the discharge of the receiver, left last evening for Boston, where he will endeavor to make such arrangements with eastern capitalists as will enable not only the investment company but the savings bank as well to shortly resume business. Those who are best acquainted with Mr. Carter state that if anyone can accomplish this difficult undertaking he is that one.
Suit Against Controllable.
The Barnacle Plumbing company, doing business at 313 South Fifteenth street, is going after Constable Walter A. Saukkny with a sharp stick, in the form of a damage suit against the constable and his bondsmen, William Scott and George G. Mack, for $1,750. According to the plaintiffs, John O'Neill placed in the hands of the constable a writ of execution against James U. Barnacle, the head of the firm, and that on August 10 the officer proceeded to levy on a horse, buckboard, and other of Mr. Barnacle's personal property, to the value of $175.
Plaintiffs further set forth that the defendant came yesterday and unlawfully levied upon and forcibly carried away $600 worth of office furniture, thereby damaging their business and their dignity in the aggregate sum of $1,000. Suit was also brought against Mr. O'Neill, who, the defendants claim, incited the constable to this unlawful action.
Omaha Typographical Club.
The Omaha View Improvement Club held a largely attended meeting at Twenty-seventh and Lake last evening, to discuss the matter of the Lake Street grade. A proposal prepared by the city engineer was displayed, and it seemed to be satisfactory to the majority. It calls for a cut of sixty-five feet at the top of the hill at Thirty-second Street, three feet more than the former one, and gives an even grade to the foot of the rise just east of the military road. A number of property owners signed the agreement to waive damages. The committee that has heretofore acted was instructed to bill the representatives of the street railway company to see if they would be satisfied with the proposed grade, and agree to try the citizens of Omaha for street railway facilities as soon as the street was brought to the desired grade.

Under the equity rules of the federal court, testimony in such cases shall be taken before a commissioner and an abstract of the same filed with the court, the presiding judge passing upon the testimony filed. Mr. Connell conducted the examination of the witnesses on behalf of the city, and he gives it as his opinion that the evidence adduced is not very strong and rather a weak case has been presented. The company denies the jurisdiction of the city council of Omaha and the Commissioners of Douglas county to assess the rolling stock for personal taxation purposes, alleging that the headquarters and the head offices of the company are located in Chicago. Also, that the terminus of the company is Council Bluffs, that being the point where the cars are repaired, cleaned, and housed at the end of each trip. The chief witness was the assistant general superintendent, and his testimony was aimed to prove the non-jurisdiction of this city and county in making the assessment. Mr. Connell says that upon cross-examination the witness's testimony was very much weakened, as he had never been in this part of the country and did not know whether Omaha was in Douglas or Pottawattamie county, and in his explanation of the operation of the company's business here, he was very much mixed. Mr. Connell will take depositions on behalf of the city before a commissioner early in September. The examination will take place in Omaha.

-'NATURE'S
A VFoiultrful llouo In nn rlxonn. Cnnon
- * " flat JltUlt.by MHH * .
It is a grand -house , and , < to build ono
like it would cost millionsof dollars , if
it could bo' done at all. And yet the
man who ; lived in it had hardly $1 to his
name. But then ho < didn't buy the
house , because it was made by nature on
the rooky walls of Subinu canon in
Arizona , thousands of" years ago , and
has been ready for an uccupunt over
since.
The man who lives in it is a pros
pector known as "Miko , " says the San
Francisco Call. What other name ho
has is not known , and besides , it don't
matter. He says ho was going up the
canon ono day a year or so ago when
ho first saw the place , and thought it
wus a house built by man. When ho
saw his mistake ho bimply took posses
sion. Mike's houbo is truly a most de
ceptive piece of nature's handiwork and
a very useful ono. It is on "tho canon
walls , probably 100 feet above the bottom
tom , and a flight of natural stone stops
lead up to its.
It is hard to convince one's self that
it is not the work of man until it is ex-
amined.closely , when its enormous size
alone would make u person know differ
ently. It is only ono story , but the out
side wall is ovorlOOfeethigh. The door ,
which is in good proportion , is over
twenty-five feet high and the room on
the inside roaches up and ends in a
black vault that there is no tolling1 how
far away it is.
When Mike wants a fire ho just makes
it on the floor , and the smoke curls up
to the top and disappears somewhere.
This is somewhat strange , us no water
ever comes into the place and the smoke
cannot bo seen coming out anywhere.
But it very likely goes through berne
fissure into a cuve beyond.
Bub Mike doesn't cure whore it goes.
Ho is satisfied with the convenience , and
thinks he is the best fixed prospector in
.the mountains. This house of rock is
most strongly suggestive of Egytian
architecture , and also bears u great re
semblance to some of the cuvo dwellings
in the Salt river valley. The thing is
an interesting curiosity , and , although
It is the house of a prospector now , there
is a strong possibility thut it may in the
past , have done duty as the home for
some members of the lost races of this
strange country. '
Hurutho Iluttlo.
In ono of thec cases at the Army and
Medical Museum there is a long row of
small test tubes containing bacterial
organisms of savoral , of the most dan
gerous discusosi.known to the medical
profession. The exhibition is a brunch
of that department under the
management xjf Dr. Gray , who
conducts experiments in the formation
of the diseabo garms and speculates on
their terms ot existence and powers of
resistance , Bays tlio Washington Post.
Among the collection is u tube labeled
"Asiatlo choiona , " which attracts more
attention thanjiny of the others. The
tube was filled with gelatine on Juno 22 ,
at the sumo time being inoculated with
cholera. In a 'little over a month the
disease germs-have developed and multi
plied to such an extent as to bo plainly
visible to the naked eye. In the open
end of the tube is loosely wadded a piece
of cotton , and although the contents
may bo been through the glass doors of
the case , Manager Flynnof the museum ,
kindly takes the tube out of the case
and explains the growth of the germs
when particular interest is manifested
in the culture by visitors.
The other day , while showing the
cholera tube to a party of visitors , u ner
vous lady approached the group and in
an excited manner inquired :
"Is thut real cholera you have bottled

A HISTORIC OLD TOWN.
Hliulensbiirc , Nonr WuBhliiKton , Famous ns
'a Iluttlo < iroiinil.
Not fur from the city of Washington
lies the sleepy little town of Bladonsburg ,
made famous by the battle fought there
on the 24th of-August , 1814. The British
troops , following up the vanquished
Americans , reached Washington , but ,
though occupying it only ono dav , they
in thatshort , time burned the capital ,
the oxceutivo mansion , and other gov
ernment property. Pretty Dolly Mad
ison , whoso husband was at that time
president , fled from her homo , but not
until she had made sure of the safety of
Washington's portrait by Gilbert Stuart ,
which she did at the risk of being
captured.
Bladensburg is.porhaps almost equally
celebrated for its delicious mineral
spring , and what is kuown as the "Old
Spa" is to this- day much frequented by
the people of the neighborhood. From
morning until night there are groups of
people , principally colored , who btund
about the spring talking and awaiting the
opportunity to drink. Barefooted little
darkies scamper up with pitchers and
jugs ID carry home that best of drinks ,
and many of them who come in convey
ances bring with them demijohns for
the same purpose.
Near the "Spa" on the village street
stands an inrj which glories in the high-
sounding title of ' "The George Washing
ton Hotel. " It undoubtedly sheltered
Washington during his stay here and
bhows unmistakable bigns of its old ago.
The stream of water known as the East
ern Branch , and which flows around the
edge of the town , was once of sufficient
depth and breadth to float largo ships ,
the produce of all thosurrounding coun
try being shipped from hare. The
waters have gradually receded , so that
now only flat-bottomed boats or steam
launches can be used on it , and the place
that was oneo of considerable commer
cial .importance . is now a very dead little
town. On the spot whore once stood the
famous RSss tavern there is now
nothing butu ruin.
A walk of less than a mile from Blad
ensburg brings ono to the spot where ho
many celebrated duels wore fought. It
was hero that Commodore Decutur and
Captain Barren mot , the encounter end-
ing.in . the death of Decatur. Ho sur
vived long enough to bo convoyed to his
homo on Lafayette square in Washing
ton , whore ho died the sumo night.
The celebrated Cllloy and Graves duoi
was also fought hero , as well
as many others by persons of
loss prominence. Those woods ,
once so Hilontr and chosen for
these murderous meetings , are now con
stantly resounding with the whistles of
passing trains between Baltimore and
Washington. Another year will prob
ably see the running of the electric road
between these two cities and the laying
out of what is intended to be the most
beautiful boulevard in the world.

Two Texas cowboys recently had the
novel experience of traveling by rail
over the Missouri , Kansas & Texas roaU ,

they seemed to feel uncomfortable from
the time that tlio train pulled out from

' Bill ' have to take

Bill did so and then Boomed pained

porter retired When ho rolled a cigar

the passengers on the buffet gave their

AN HISTORIC CHA.ni.
Guncrnl Alfred Still'n ( Jump Stonl Htuwoil
Away in Drue More.
An interesting relic of bygone days is
just now lying in the back room of
Nash's drug store in Sioux City , ways thu
Journal. It is an old oak and carpet camp
chair , with arms on it miulo of a couple
of stirrup straps , the whole so hinged
that it can bo folded away in very'small
space. The chair was owned by General
Alfred Sully , having been made for him
by a private buldier when he , as a raw
lieutenant from the United States mili
tary academy , first joined the Socjnd in
fantry in 1842 , the regiment then being
engaged in the Seminole war. With the
close of this war the chair wont with
Sully to the great lakes , along which no
was on jiurrifton duty till the Mexican
war. After Veru Crux had fallen Sully
was bent north on recruiting duty , finally
landing in California , and it was in this
bamo chair that ho sat when he received
his commission as captain in Febru
ary , 1849. Four years later Sullj was
ordered to the aid of the governor of
Oregon in his campaign against the
Rogue riVer Indians , and through many
a night in the forest wilderness the old
chair served us his cjuch , for it iso
constructed thut it may make u fairly
comfortable cat. In Djjan'j3r 18VI ,
Sally was ordered to Now York , and it
was on his voyage thither that ho was
first separated from the old chair.
While coasting oAung the southern
California coast the ship wa ? wrecked
in u gale , and it was not until ho came
to Sioux City in 1858 that the rude but
comfortable bit of furniture was restored
to him along with his other effects. It
followed him through his campaigns in
Minnesota , Nebraska and Dakota , and
was with him during bib operations
against the Choyerino Indians. Tlio
civil war having broken out in the
meantime , Sullv was ordered cast , and
in 1801 left the old chair with .T. M.
Bacon of Sioux City until ho should
return. James river , Fair Oaks , Mul-
vorn Hill , the Virginia and Maryland
campaigns were fought before he re
turned to the west as ojintmuidor of the
Department of Dakota , having earned in
tlio meantime the rank of h.-igudior
general. It was then that the
people of Sioux City presented the
general with tlio dwelling which
formerly occupied the bite of the old
Chase resilience on Douglas street , and
here the chair found an honored place.
Then came the expeditions against the
Sioux and the Pottawuttamios. In these
Sully gained signal distinction as a
frontier fighter. Tlio records of White
Stone hill , Ta-kiih-ha-kuty and the
skirmishes in the Bud lands earned for
him the rank of major gono.'al. Through
all these campaigns the old chair parsed
without a bcrutc.li , and today the oaken
logs and buck , hardened and polished
with long use , look as if they might out-
lust muny generations moro of soldiers
and bavages.
On his removal to Vancouver General
Sully left the chair with Mr. Bacon , who
previous to his death promised it to A.
F. Nash. The other day when the Bacon
stock was removed the cliair was turned
over to Mr. Nash.
An old volunteer soldier who followed
Sully through his northwestern cam
paigns was looking the old clmir over
"Vos " said ho ' 'that
yesterday , , , oak
and curpot concern could tell many a
story were it gifted with a , tongue. I
can face the old man now ( for we liked
him and always culled him the old niuii ) .
I can BOO him with his logs stretched out
after a long day's march or a particu
larly trying bush fight with the rods ,
the old half-gallon jug sitting
on u cam ] ) chest at his side ,
a tumbler in hand and his clbjw
resting on ono of those strap arms. Sully
never took his whisky In homeopathic
dosos. His hat was us apt to bo under his
feet as anywhere , and his good blue army
shirt thrown open at the nozk when Ilia
weather was hot. Ho had u profound
antipathy to anything like dross parade
in actual service , and his eurtness to
many of his subordinate ofllcors tvus
largely provoked by their foppishness
and assumption of superior airs toward
the private soldiers. It was a remark
that Sully made while boated in thut old
chair that got mo into the guard house
ono day.
"I wui at the general's tent consulting
with him about the building of some
flat-boats that wo needed for transport
purposes , when in walked a lieutenant
jimt from West Point. I hud noticed the
vountjMor down among thaofllcorV tonln
a whllo Ixjforo , Hlmvllignnd spruplng up.
When lie entered Hully'fl tent a spotless
handkerchief protruded bctwoou thn
brightly tmrnliuicd buttons nt hU cont. i
His hair was correct , and no drlllmas- '
tor could have found fault with his ea-
lute.
" 'How are you , sir ? " asked the gen
eral , and klukt-d a stool over toward the.
lieutenant and motioned him to bo
seated. The youngster took the scHt
and answered very politely that ho was
entirely well. .lust then the gonem' '
caught a whiff of the Perfume which the
lloutonnnt had sprinkled rather freely
upon his clothes , and perfume on. light
ing clothes wns SullyV pot aversion. ilfi
tone grow unfriendly as tln formal con
versation proceeded and finally ho said :
" 'And you're out here to light the
Indians , o'h ? Well , sir , I've been cam
paigning it for nearly thirty years now ,
and 1 have never stunk half as badly as
you do , sir. "
"The lieutenant fell off the chair and
I Riiorteil , and was promptly sent to the
guard lioiiso for doing It , for Sully was a.
disciplinarian. The general lot mo out
at supper tune , and an 1 passed his tent
ho beckoned mo over , poured out a glass
of whisky for mo , and without the least
reference to my imprisonment , throw a
leg over ono arm of that chair , and rest
ing his head on the back of It looked
tip through the brunches and soberly re
marked , 'I'm afraid those red
skins will smell us a mile away tomor
row , ' and with a countenance profoundly
despondent the great Indian lighter
dropped asleep. "
INDIAN SOLDIERS.
Clinngri ItidlcHtln * ; Their 1'nllure In the
Scrvlcp.
The War department has directed that
company I , Fourth infantry , and ttoow
L , Fourth cavalry , shall lo } mustered
out ; and troop L , First cavalry , was
mustered out several days ago. All
three are Indian organisations.
In view of the strong desire hitherto
manifested to obtain Indian reeruitH ,
nays the New York Sun , this atopia very
significant ; and n'.mio oliieors uro dis
posed to read in it the beginning of the
abandonment of the whole system of
Indian companies In the army.
One trouble is with the red men thorn *
bolvos , for many of them are taking ad
vantage of the now system of dibchurgo
by purchase to buy their release from
the army. That , of course , shows dis
satisfaction with the restraints aml
duties of military life. In one ease just
spoken of. it is stiid thut there WUH such
u rush to buy discharges that the uuthor-
ities suggested a consolidation of Indian
companies , and thereupon came u hubbub - '
bub of opposition , and disbtuidmont was
resorted to.
The enlistment of Indians in tho.reg
ular army , forming companies of their
own , with white officers , but with their
own bot'geants and coporulshas always
been an interesting experiment. It hay
hud much in favor of its practicability.
To begin with , it hid the experience *
of other nations , which , after the subju- ,
gallon of suvugo tribes , are accustomed' '
to form contingent : * from among them' '
for local service , olllcerod by tiie con
quering race. England , Franco , Russia
and muny oilier nations oiler familiar ex
amples of this practice on u very largo
scale.
Our red Indians of the west wore par
ticularly promising subjects for such an
experiment hero , because individually
they were considered among the best
soldiers in the world. Bravo , capable of I
enduring great labor and privation , J
skilled , in woodcraft , excellent horse * ,
men , adopts with tlio rifle , they have j
many admirable qualities for the hard
est Campaigning. They are also fond of'
show and of martial movements. Thoirl
eupubilitiy el obedience to Orders and |
their fidelity has boon shown1
in the service rendered by the
orguni/.cd Indian police , some
times against their own tribesmen ,
and in critical emergencies , as , for ex
ample , at the capture and death of Sit
ting Bull. Besides , Indians hud for a
long period boon regularly enlisted in
the army as "Scouts , sometimes tj the
number of hundreds , > that the ehungo
to full coinpauiiu of them ws less of an1
experiment.
The government also needed them ;
for , btraiige as it may hccm , with only
about 2oUOO enlisted "nion in the army ,
and a nation of 05,000,000 to recruit from ,
there is always miiuti difllculty in keep
ing the ranks full of desirable men. It
was therefore hoped that tiiu Indians
would bupply u cOi'tain number of com
panies of cavalry and infantry , just as
organizing the colo.-ed regiments had
provided lor tour out of the forty
menu.
But there have been difficulties in the
way. The Indians , it appears , llko tlio
cavalry better than the infantry Borvleo.
Then they have , of cjurso , in their res
ervation system , u totally difTerent lifo
from that to which tlio native con
tingents of foreign cjlonial , armies uro
accustomed.
Still it may bo hoped that the. infer
ence drawn from the recent mustering-
out of those companiesua to the eventual
abandonment of Indian enlistments is
unfounded. Life in the army is un
doubtedly an education for the red mem.
It accustoms them to obedience and self-
biipport. It gives u hitfo outlet to the
murtlul spirit which comes to the young
men with their blood. It touches thom
to look on the government as more im
portant than the triba , and fits them for
American citizenship. Wo uro prob
ably correct in surmising that there will
bonofiiioh utrosi under Secretary La-
nnnt in encouraging the organization of _
Indian companies as ttiero WUH'under'
Secretary Pi odor , with whom the pro
ject originated ; hut there is no warrant
yet for the assumption thut the Hystein
will bu wholly abandoned
.

'NATURE'S
A Beautiful Home In an Exception. Cannon
"flat" Building .
It is a grand -house, and, to build one
like it would cost millions of dollars, if
it could be done at all. And yet the
man who lived in it had hardly $1 to his
name. But then he didn't buy the
house, because it was made by nature on
the rocky walls of Sublime canyon in
Arizona, thousands of years ago, and
has been ready for an occupant over
since.
The man who lives in it is a pros
pector known as "Mike", says the San
Francisco Call. What other name he
has is not known, and besides, it don't
matter. He says he was going up the
canyon one day a year or so ago when
he first saw the place, and thought it
was a house built by man. When he
saw his mistake he simply took possession.
Mike's house is truly a most deceptive
piece of nature's handiwork and a very
useful one. It is on "the canyon walls,
probably 100 feet above the bottom,
and a flight of natural stone steps lead
up to it.
It is hard to convince one's self that
it is not the work of man until it is examined
closely, when its enormous size
alone would make a person know differently.
It is only one story, but the outside wall is over
100 feet high. The door, which is in good proportion,
is over twenty-five feet high and the room on
the inside reaches up and ends in a
black vault that there is no telling how
far away it is.
When Mike wants a fire he just makes
it on the floor, and the smoke curls up
to the top and disappears somewhere.
This is somewhat strange, as no water
ever comes into the place and the smoke
cannot be seen coming out anywhere.
But it very likely goes through some fissure
into a cave beyond.
But Mike doesn't care where it goes.
He is satisfied with the convenience,
and thinks he is the best fixed prospector in
the mountains. This house of rock is
most strongly suggestive of Egyptian
architecture, and also bears a great resemblance
to some of the cave dwellings
in the Salt river valley. The thing is
an interesting curiosity, and, although
it is the house of a prospector now,
there is a strong possibility that it may in the
past, have done duty as the home for
some members of the lost races of this
strange country.
In one of the cases at the Army and
Medical Museum there is a long row of
small test tubes containing bacterial
organisms of several, of the most dangerous discases known to the medical
profession. The exhibition is a branch
of that department under the
management of Dr. Gray, who
conducts experiments in the formation
of the diseases germs and speculates on
their terms of existence and powers of
resistance, says the Washington Post.
Among the collection is a tube labeled
"Asiatic cholera", which attracts more
attention than any of the others. The
tube was filled with gelatin on June 22,
at the same time being inoculated with
cholera. In a little over a month the
disease germs have developed and multiplied
to such an extent as to be plainly
visible to the naked eye. In the open
end of the tube is loosely wadded a piece
of cotton, and although the contents
may be seen through the glass doors of
the case, Manager Flynn of the museum,
kindly takes the tube out of the case
and explains the growth of the germs
when particular interest is manifested
in the culture by visitors.
The other day, while showing the
cholera tube to a party of visitors, a
nervous lady approached the group and in
an excited manner inquired:
"Is that real cholera you have bottled
up there ? "
"Yes, Asiatic cholera", politely replied Mr. Flynn.
The woman threw up both hands and exclaimed,
"Then for God's sake, be careful
and don't drop the bottle."

A HISTORIC OLD TOWN.
Bladensburg, Near Washington, Famous as
'a Little Town Again.'
Not far from the city of Washington
lies the sleepy little town of Bladensburg,
made famous by the battle fought there
on the 24th of August, 1814. The British
troops, following up the vanquished
Americans, reached Washington, but,
though occupying it only one day, they
in that short time burned the capital,
the executive mansion, and other gov
ernment property. Pretty Dolly Madison,
whose husband was at that time
president, fled from her home, but not
until she had made sure of the safety of
Washington's portrait by Gilbert Stuart,
which she did at the risk of being
captured.
Bladensburg is perhaps almost equally
celebrated for its delicious mineral
spring, and what is known as the "Old
Spa" is to this day much frequented by
the people of the neighborhood. From
morning until night there are groups of
people, principally colored, who stand
about the spring talking and awaiting the
opportunity to drink. Barefooted little
darkies scamper up with pitchers and
jugs to carry home that best of drinks,
and many of them who come in conveyances bring with them demijohns for
the same purpose.
Near the "Spa" on the village street
stands an inn which glories in the high-
sounding title of ' "The George Washing
ton Hotel. " It undoubtedly sheltered
Washington during his stay here and
shows unmistakable signs of its old age.
The stream of water known as the Eastern Branch,
and which flows around the edge of the town,
was once of sufficient depth and breadth to float large ships,
the produce of all the surrounding country being shipped from there.
The waters have gradually receded, so that
now only flat-bottomed boats or steam
launches can be used on it, and the place
that was once of considerable commercial
importance is now a very dead little
town. On the spot where once stood the
famous BSass tavern there is now
nothing but ruin.
A walk of less than a mile from Bladensburg
brings one to the spot where many celebrated duels were fought. It
was here that Commodore Decatur and
Captain Barron met, the encounter ending
in the death of Decatur. He survived long enough to be conveyed to his
home on Lafayette square in Washington,
where he died the same night.
The celebrated Chisolm and Graves duel
was also fought here, as well as many others by persons of
loss prominence. Those woods,
once so silent and chosen for
these murderous meetings, are now constantly resounding with the whistles of
passing trains between Baltimore and
Washington. Another year will probably see the running of the electric road
between these two cities and the laying out of what is intended to be the most
beautiful boulevard in the world.
NOT IN THEIR LINE.
Two Cowboys Have No Time for a Parlor Quail.
Two Texas cowboys recently had the
novel experience of traveling by rail
over the Missouri, Kansas & Texas road,
says the Atlanta Constitution, But
they seemed to feel uncomfortable from
the time that the train pulled out from
the point that they got on out in the
brush. When they got in the Wagner
sleeper one of them said to the other :
'Bill, you'll have to take
your spurs off your hoofs if you expect to put
your boots on the top of that seat. "
Bill did so and then looked pained
and surprised when the porter told him
that passengers were not expected to
put their feet on the plush-covered
seats. He toyed with his gun until the
porter retired. When he rolled a cigarette and lit it and the conductor
showed him where the smoking receptacle of the vestibule train was he seemed
annoyed. At supper time, when all of the passengers on the buffet gave their
orders and the two cowboys gave theirs,
telling the porter to bring them "all
there was on the program and be sure
to bring them plenty of sardines, " they
handed the porter a $5 bill and were surprised when he asked them for 15 cents
more.
Both of them said, "That settles it. If
we stay in this here concern that nigger
will have our money before we get
to the next station. No wonder the
gang holds up the trains, but I am surprised at 'em from after the mail when
they would have such a soft snap with
the coon in the high-toned corral. If
ever I want to go into the train robbery business I would go coon hunting first and get the black sounder that
wanted four bits for bringing up our
bodice ( $ . " They quit the train at the next
way station.

AN HISTORIC CHAIR.
General Alfred Sully (Jump Stone Hill) Away in Drug More.
An interesting relic of bygone days is just now lying in the back room of Nash's drug store in Sioux City, ways the Journal. It is an old oak and carpet camp chair, with arms on it made of a couple of stirrup straps, the whole so hinged that it can be folded away in very small space. The chair was owned by General Alfred Sully, having been made for him by a private soldier when he, as a raw lieutenant from the United States military academy, first joined the Second Infantry in 1842, the regiment then being engaged in the Seminole war. With the close of this war the chair went with Sully to the great lakes, along which he was on frontier duty till the Mexican war. After Vera Cruz had fallen Sully was bent north on recruiting duty, finally landing in California, and it was in this same chair that he sat when he received his commission as captain in February, 1849. Four years later Sully was ordered to the aid of the governor of Oregon in his campaign against the Rogue River Indians, and through many a night in the forest wilderness the old chair served as his couch, for it is constructed that it may make a fairly comfortable seat. In July 1856, Sully was ordered to New York, and it was on his voyage thither that he was first separated from the old chair. While coasting along the southern California coast the ship was wrecked in a gale, and it was not until he came to Sioux City in 1858 that the rude but comfortable bit of furniture was restored to him along with his other effects. It followed him through his campaigns in Minnesota, Nebraska and Dakota, and was with him during his operations against the Cherokees Indians. The civil war having broken out in the meantime, Sully was ordered east, and in 1861 left the old chair with J. M. Bacon of Sioux City until he should return. James river, Fair Oaks, Spotsylvania, Mill spring Hill, the Virginia and Maryland campaigns were fought before he returned to the west as commander of the Department of Dakota, having earned in the meantime the rank of major general. It was then that the people of Sioux City presented the general with the dwelling which formerly occupied the site of the old Chase residence on Douglas street, and here the chair found an honored place. Then came the expeditions against the Sioux and the Pottawattamies. In these Sully gained signal distinction as a frontier fighter. The records of White Stone hill, Sis Kaha Kootenai and the skirmishes in the Black Hills earned for him the rank of major general. Through all these campaigns the old chair passed without a breach, and today the oaken logs and leather, hardened and polished with long use, look as if they might outlast many generations more of soldiers and savages.
On his removal to Vancouver General Sully left the chair with Mr. Bacon, who previous to his death promised it to A. F. Nash. The other day when the Bacon stock was removed the chair was turned over to Mr. Nash.
An old volunteer soldier who followed Sully through his northwestern campaigns was looking the old chair over yesterday, "Vos said he, "that oak and carpet concern could tell many a story were it gifted with a tongue. I can face the old man now (for we liked him and always called him the old man), I can see him with his legs stretched out after a long day's march or a particularly trying bush fight with the Sioux, the old half-gallon jug sitting on a camp chest at his side, a tumbler in hand and his head resting on one of those strap arms. Sully never took his whisky in homeopathic doses. His hat was as apt to be under his feet as anywhere, and his good blue army shirt thrown open at the neck when the weather was hot. He had a profound antipathy to anything like dress parade in actual service, and his ire toward many of his subordinates was largely provoked by their foppishness and assumption of superior airs toward the private soldiers. It was a remark that Sully made while seated in that old chair that got me into the guard house one day.
"I was at the general's tent consulting with him about the building of some flat-boats that we needed for transportation purposes, when in walked a lieutenant just from West Point. I had noticed the volunteer down among the officers toiling a while before, Halverson springing up. When he entered Sully's tent a spotless handkerchief protruded between the brightly trimmed buttons at his collar. His hair was correct, and no drillmaster could have found fault with his equipment.
" 'How are you, sir?' asked the general, and knocked a stool over toward the lieutenant and motioned him to be seated. The youngster took the seat and answered very politely that he was entirely well. Just then the general caught a whiff of the perfume which the lieutenant had sprinkled rather freely upon his clothes, and perfume on lighting clothes was Sully's particular aversion. The tone grew unfriendly as the formal conversation proceeded and finally he said:
" 'And you're out here to fight the Indians, eh? Well, sir, I've been campaigning it for nearly thirty years now, and I have never stunk half as badly as you do, sir. '
"The lieutenant fell off the chair and I laughed, and was promptly sent to the guard house for doing it, for Sully was a disciplinarian. The general let me out at supper time, and as I passed his tent he beckoned me over, poured out a glass of whisky for me, and without the least reference to my imprisonment, threw a leg over one arm of that chair, and resting his head on the back of it looked up through the branches and soberly remarked, 'I'm afraid those red skins will smell us a mile away tomorrow,' and with a countenance profoundly despondent the great Indian fighter dropped asleep.
Our red Indians of the west were particularly promising subjects for such an experiment, here, because individually they were considered among the best soldiers in the world. Brave, capable of enduring great labor and privation, skilled in woodcraft, excellent horsemen, adopts with the rifle, they have many admirable qualities for the hardest campaigning. They are also fond of show and of martial movements. Their obedience to orders and their fidelity has been shown in the service rendered by the organized Indian police, sometimes against their own tribesmen, and in critical emergencies, as, for example, at the capture and death of Sitting Bull. Besides, Indians had for a long period been regularly enlisted in the army as "Scouts, sometimes to the number of hundreds, that the change to full companies of them was less of an experiment.
The government also needed them; for, strange as it may seem, with only about 20,000 enlisted men in the army, and a nation of 65,000,000 to recruit from, there is always much difficulty in keeping the ranks full of desirable men. It was therefore hoped that the Indians would supply a certain number of companies of cavalry and infantry, just as organizing the colored regiments had provided for four out of the forty men.
But there have been difficulties in the way. The Indians, it appears, like the cavalry better than the infantry. Then they have, of course, in their reservation system, a totally different life from that to which the native contingents of foreign colonial armies are accustomed.
Still, it may be hoped that the inference drawn from the recent mustering-out of those companies as to the eventual abandonment of Indian enlistments is unfounded. Life in the army is undoubtedly an education for the red men. It accustoms them to obedience and self-support. It gives a better outlet to the martial spirit which comes to the young men with their blood. It touches them to look on the government as more important than the tribe, and fits them for American citizenship. We are probably correct in surmising that there will be much trust under Secretary Lanman in encouraging the organization of Indian companies as there was under Secretary Porter, with whom the project originated; but there is no warrant yet for the assumption that the system will be wholly abandoned.

thn
The never ending , nlways Irritating ,
seemingly unsolvnblo question of how to
obtain and rotnin n good servant Is one
In which all women arc Interested , all
women who keep IIOUBO at least. It Is
Buoh a nuisance that It hatnTomo to bo a
mutter of dobnto with many ladles If It
Is not bolter to quit trying V havp n
homo and fall back oir the boarding
house hades. *
In the Interesting and Instructive sta-
tlHtlcs presented by Helen Campbell in
her notable articles on "Women Wage
EarnorH , " now being published in one of
our loading magazines , it is shown by
replies of girls from nearly every state
in the Union that It Is not because of the
Boclal ostracism or anything of the sort
that'girls prefer to work harder for loss
pay in any other kind of employment
than housework , but because of the
longer hours and lessened liberty of do
mestic service. After all this Is Amor-
lea. The hours are in most cases about
fourteen and the liberties non est. Of
course if people keep late hours the
servant must also bo on hand to the end
of the late hours to attend to the duties
which must bo done and which only she
can do. This'is to some extent unavoid
able and Is all right if a contract la made
to that effect when the servant is em
ployed. The trouble is women seem to
think that If they succeed In getting an
oxtrahour'a work out of asor van t they are
just so much abend. There is a constant
strife between mistress and maid and the
mistress foi'gots her position of toner than
the servant. For instance , a woman
will engage another to come one day in
the week to wash. Perhaps the woman
is a strong Gorman and in the summer
time especially she prefers to got at hoi-
work early in the morning , about 5
o'clock , thus putting in about half a day
before the regular legal day begins.
Does the w oinan who hires her remem
ber this in the evening ? Not sho. It Is
easy to find cleaning and scrubbing
enough to keep her busy until 5 o'clock ,
and if not she can got in a little ironing
to got in a full day. Or if the lady of
the house does consider the washer
woman's day's work done when the
washing is on the line and the cleaning
of floors finished she expects the woman
to consider it a great favor and she
poses as a saint in human form if it is
not quite ! > o'clock. It is just such gross
injustices as those which are at the bottom
tom of all the trouble in the employment
of servants and have made it practically
impossible for a woman to obtain efficient
help and has made American housekeep
ing the worst kind of slavery.
If you are a working woman and em
ployed by a man , how does ho treat you ?
If ho wants any extra work done ho asks
it as a favor , in most instances expect
ing , of course , to pay extra for it. And
then when your work is done his claim
on you is at an end. A woman , on the
contrary , thinks she has a mortgage on
the body and soul of every servant con-
nootod with her establishment. Now , it
is really no one's business what a girl
docs when her work is done and a full
day has boon put in , even if she goes to
any extreme of evil , so long as she keeps
"in bounds of the law. At the same time'
any thinking woman will look after a
girl who is loss intelligent- has had
loss experience than herself , and will
always advise her for good , and it would
no doubt bo her duty to discharge her if
the girl refused to heed. But it all
depends on the spirit in which it is done.
, It scorns to the writer as if the cant
and slush of treating a servant as an
equal' and all that is merest rot. What
the girl wants and should have is recog
nition as a good servant , if she is one ,
tied an appreciation of her efforts as
auoh. The servant girl has her own
friends and associates and it is to them
she looks for pleasure and happiness in
a social way. In fact it would bore her
tremendously to be obliged to undo'rgo
one-half of the conventionalities and re
straints to which her mistress is con
stantly subjected. She does not uudor-
atund them and don't want anything of
the kind in hers , in which she shows
herself to bo the more feonslblo of the
two.
two.If
If all _ women every where wore to
establish a certain number of hours as a
day and have it understood when the
contrast was made just how many hour
qaoh day the girl was to work and what
work sho.must do. and then keep the
contract , in the spirit and the letter her
self , ' the girl would gladly keep it on hoi
part. Insist on first-class work and the
servant will bo first-class , especially il
she receives first-class pay. A fern
years ago , any girl who coult
write a little shorthand and hammoi
u typewriter could got a job , oven if slit
had to wrobtlo hard with words of out
syllable when it came to spoiling.Moi
would not put up with' anything bul
good work , and now any girl who ap'
plies for a position of this kind must Lx
thoroughly equipped or she knows slit
cannot hold the job , for there are plenty
who are competent who will gladly take
her place. What Ifnro women dent
under the same circumstances ? Thoj
have wept and wailed and told thuii
husbands or their neighbors what hare
times they had with the last now eorv
ant , gave bur a good recommendation
discharged her and hired another jus
llko hor.
If housekeepers would all insist 01
having only the best , and pay for it , tin
servant question will solve itself L
time , upd a short time , too. It is mono
working people want and if they cai
got It by giving poor service they wil
not trouble themselves to make the faorv '
ice better. If they cannot obtain era
plpymoht unless they give good sorvic
they will do that. All servants' wage
qhould be paid on the ratio of th
quality of the work done in their pai
tloular stations. Lot an incompetent
Impudent servant understand plain !
that you will employ her If you can d
no bettor , but that you will only pay ho
ouo-half as much as you would if sh
would attend to her work and do he
full duty in all respects. Then you d
yours. Houbowork and especially cool
lug is the host job in Omaha today an
a 'competent woman can obtain a pos
tion in five minutes at her own prlc
In what other line of business is th
true ? What is to prevent housokcouoi

benefit and improvement in which tl
rights of both shall bo considered ?

If you have a taste for'emulating th
' rainbow in gorgeousuoss , so far as ma ;
be , the glovers have .done all , in thoi
powoy this'scnson to aid you. Gloves o
every shade of grocn , from sea foam t
apple , dangle before your eyes. Glove
of pink and gloves of purple lie in the !
cases , wooing the lover of color to buy
them. Gloves of lemon color and
gloi'os of orange are not lacking.
There are gloves as thick with em
broidery as the old-fashioned christen
ing' robe used to bo. There nro gloves
that glitter with steel and gloves that
gleam with bronze. There are gloves
with silk of divers hues worked up the
back. And these are all gloves that the
self-roapecting woman will avoid.
It is" almost unnecessary to remark
that they are vulgar. Sometimes with
a gown of grcon or heliotrope it is per
missible to wear crlovcs of exactly the
same shade , although oven then quite
as good an effect could have boon gained
by carefully choosing a shade of gray or
mode or tan that harmonized with the
gown. Anything that makes the hand
oven though it bo a beautiful ono
remarkable , is to bo shunned.
Put into your glove box sorao black
suede gloves , which have a happy
* faculty of being appropriate with almost
any costume. Put in sorao soft gray
glove t and some modes color ones. Add
a pair of heavily stitched reddish-brown
gluce kid to wear with your severely
made dark walking suit , u couple of
pairs of white washable kid ones for
wear with your gingham dresses and a
] pair of driying gauntlets , and you will
always bo well and correctly gloved.

Discussion of Both Sides of the Domestic Service Question.
HOUSEKEEPING THE BEST JOB IN OMAHA
Many experienced American Opinion Hometown of full Faith, Union, Parenthood and Union Art for the never ending, always irritating, seemingly unsolvable question of how to obtain and retain a good servant is one in which all women are interested, all women who keep house at least. It is such a nuisance that it has come to be a matter of debate with many ladies if it is not better to quit trying to have a home and fall back on the boarding house hazards.
In the interesting and instructive statistics presented by Helen Campbell in her notable articles on "Women Wage Earners", now being published in one of our leading magazines, it is shown by replies of girls from nearly every state in the Union that it is not because of the social ostracism or anything of the sort that girls prefer to work harder for less pay in any other kind of employment than housework, but because of the longer hours and lessened liberty of domestic service. After all, this is America. The hours are in most cases about fourteen and the liberties non est. Of course, if people keep late hours the servant must also be on hand to the end of the late hours to attend to the duties which must be done and which only she can do. This is to some extent unavoidable and is all right if a contract is made to that effect when the servant is employed. The trouble is women seem to think that if they succeed in getting an extra hour's work out of a servant they are just so much ahead. There is a constant strife between mistress and maid and the mistress forgets her position of superior than the servant. For instance, a woman will engage another to come one day in the week to wash. Perhaps the woman is a strong German and in the summertime especially she prefers to go at her work early in the morning, about 5 o'clock, thus putting in about half a day before the regular legal day begins. Does the woman who hires her remember this in the evening? Not she. It is easy to find cleaning and scrubbing enough to keep her busy until 5 o'clock, and if not she can get in a little ironing to get in a full day. Or if the lady of the house does consider the washerwoman's day's work done when the washing is on the line and the cleaning of floors finished she expects the woman to consider it a great favor and she poses as a saint in human form if it is not quite 5 o'clock. It is just such gross injustices as those which are at the bottom of all the trouble in the employment of servants and have made it practically impossible for a woman to obtain efficient help and has made American housekeeping the worst kind of slavery.
If you are a working woman and employed by a man, how does he treat you? If he wants any extra work done he asks it as a favor, in most instances expecting, of course, to pay extra for it. And then when your work is done his claim on you is at an end. A woman, on the contrary, thinks she has a mortgage on the body and soul of every servant connected with her establishment. Now, it is really no one's business what a girl does when her work is done and a full day has been put in, even if she goes to any extreme of evil, so long as she keeps "in bounds of the law. At the same time, any thinking woman will look after a girl who is less intelligent, has had less experience than herself, and will always advise her for good, and it would no doubt be her duty to discharge her if the girl refused to heed. But it all depends on the spirit in which it is done.
It seems to the writer as if the cant and slush of treating a servant as an equal and all that is merest rot. What the girl wants and should have is recognition as a good servant, if she is one, and an appreciation of her efforts as such. The servant girl has her own friends and associates and it is to them she looks for pleasure and happiness in a social way. In fact, it would bore her tremendously to be obliged to undergo one-half of the conventionalities and restraints to which her mistress is constantly subjected. She does not understand them and does not want anything of the kind in hers, in which she shows herself to be the more sensible of the two.
If all women everywhere were to establish a certain number of hours as a day and have it understood when the contract was made just how many hours each day the girl was to work and what work she must do, and then keep the contract, in the spirit and the letter herself, the girl would gladly keep it on her part. Insist on first-class work and the servant will be first-class, especially if she receives first-class pay. A few years ago, any girl who could write a little shorthand and handle a typewriter could get a job, even if she had to work hard with words of few syllables when it came to spelling. I would not put up with anything but good work, and now any girl who applies for a position of this kind must be thoroughly equipped or she knows she cannot hold the job, for there are plenty who are competent who will gladly take her place. What American women do under the same circumstances? They weep and wail and tell their husbands or their neighbors what hard times they had with the last now ex-servant, give her a good recommendation, discharge her and hire another just like her.
If housekeepers would all insist on having only the best, and pay for it, the servant question would solve itself in time, and a short time, too. It is money working people want and if they can get it by giving poor service they will not trouble themselves to make the service better. If they cannot obtain employment unless they give good service, they will do that. All servants' wages should be paid on the ratio of the quality of the work done in their particular stations. Let an incompetent, impudent servant understand plainly that you will employ her if you cannot do better, but that you will only pay her half as much as you would if she would attend to her work and do her full duty in all respects. Then you do yours. Housework and especially cooking is the best job in Omaha today and a competent woman can obtain a position in five minutes at her own price. In what other line of business is that true? What is to prevent housework and servants, mistresses and maids from forming some sort of a language for mutual benefit and improvement in which the rights of both shall be considered?
"I saw something in the paper the other day about the different kinds of women who wore different colors," said the English girl, over the dinner table according to June Shore's reports in the columns of the New York Recorder. "and I thought it just about as interesting as it is to judge men by their neckties."
"But can't you tell something about men by their neckties?" asked the woman in pink.
"I think a man who will wear a brick red necktie will write his name on the Washington monument or even carve it on Grant's tomb if he can get a chance," said the lieutenant.
"Oh, he wouldn't stop at a little thing like that. I've heard from his grandmother on small provocation," added the real estate man.
"No: I don't think you've made a careful study of him. He's not bloodthirsty.
"Only weak-minded and vain men wear neckties at the seashore and on yacht excursions and they look just stunning!" put in the Vassar girl. "Oh, well, all sorts of pranks are excused in the summer; man just as they are in the summer girl. I've seen these men wear orange-colored blazers, too. But I wasn't referring to that butterfly existence. I meant men about town and at their work," said the housenkat. "I always think a man has a certain inborn love of daintiness and cleanliness who wears in summer those pretty light cotton ties with little sprigs and bars. I believe he has considerable self-respect, too," said the woman in pink crepon. "And I can't help thinking the man who always wears black four-in-hands is either very stingy or very bold in his spending." "Don't you know they are very becoming to some men, especially those who are fair and flirish? The knowing men, like the knowing women, wear what they look best in," observed the religious editor. "Well, I never supposed men studied their points that way," said the woman in white, with an innocent stare. "They do, though, every time," answered the editor, with convincing emphasis. "A man who wears a bright blue tie - that light, brilliant blue, you know - always seems to me to have something feminine in his nature." "A sort of Miss Nunoy." "He's more likely to have just come up from Podunk or Haysville, and to be viewing the chophazard. He's a shining mark for the bunco man every time," put in the real estate dealer. "And perhaps his 'girl' likes that color and went with him when he bought the tie. You can't judge a man by his tie when..." "He comes from the rural districts. "Never" added "the lawyer; "the fancies, erratic notions, and go-as-you-please styles which prevail in rustic society as to neckties are never reliable data from which to generalize." "I think there's something in the colors a woman wears; I really do," mused the lady in green silk. "Now, I never can have any confidence in a woman who is devoted to mauve," said the actress, Miss Mary Love, the other day, she had had a similar experience. "Every woman," she said, "ever knew who was addicted to mauve, she was a woman not to be trusted, and she would on talk to me over so many instances." "I am very fond of the color," said the aunt from Philadelphia. Horrors! Her gown was mauve. No one had noticed it before. "Oh, but you know elderly ladies always wear that color," she stammered, "I didn't mean them," said the woman in green. "I didn't suppose that age was mentioned, or was one of the necessary qualifications," retorted the man, in an acid vinegar tone that made everybody laugh except the Vassar girl, who smiled expanisvely behind her napkin to the real estate man, and somehow seemed to be the only one who thoroughly enjoyed her salad. If you have a taste for emulating the rainbow in gorgeousness, so far as men can, the glovers have done all, in their poverty this season, to aid you. Gloves of every shade of green, from sea foam to apple, dangle before your eyes. Gloves of pink and gloves of purple lie in the cases, wooing the lover of color to buy them. Gloves of lemon color and gloves of orange are not lacking. There are gloves as thick with embroidery as the old-fashioned christening robe used to be. There are gloves that glitter with steel and gloves that gleam with bronze. There are gloves with silk of divers hues worked up the back. And these are all gloves that the self-respecting woman will avoid. It is almost unnecessary to remark that they are vulgar. Sometimes with a gown of green or heliotrope it is permissible to wear gloves of exactly the same shade, although even then quite as good an effect could have been gained by carefully choosing a shade of gray or mode or tan that harmonized with the gown. Anything that makes the hand even though it be a beautiful one, remarkable, is to be shunned. Put into your glove box some black suede gloves, which have a happy faculty of being appropriate with almost any costume. Put in some soft gray gloves and some modes color ones. Add a pair of heavily stitched reddish-brown glove kid to wear with your severely made dark walking suit, a couple of pairs of white washable kid ones for wear with your gingham dresses and a pair of drying gauntlets, and you will always be well and correctly gloved.
A sweet-faced maiden, who still has hopes, sat beside a bright little fellow in an elegant car the other afternoon making friendly overtures to his pleased parents by complimenting the boy on his accomplishments. She had asked him many questions about everything she could think of as they speeded toward Harlem. To these the little chap had replied with frank good-naturedness peculiar to children.
"Do you love the park? Do you love the park? "He replied; then added after a pause, "but papa doesn't like it."
"No? And why don't he like it?" "Papa says it bores him, and he don't like it," the little boy replied. People in the vicinity smiled at the father's expense, and the maiden lady seemed to be greatly amused. The child had this and followed it up:
"Papa wanted to come but Mama said..." What mamma said was cut short by a vigorous shake from that individual, he who had all along regarded the strange lady with disapproval and now frowned. The passengers looked disappointed. The maiden lady looked a trifle malicious.
"How old are you?" she finally inquired with her sweetest smile?
"How old are you?" he replied. Mama smiled this time and the gentlemen across the aisle elevated their newspaper to conceal their agitation. The maiden lady gazed out of the window thoughtfully. Maybe she was trying to figure it up, but she didn't answer the child's question.
Beware of fads, They are always dangerous, but they are worse, like the disturbances, in society. Listen to the story of Anna's disappointed hopes, as told by one of Anna's friends over the social glass of pineapple brandy. The hostess was a very much tanned young person, and she had announced, gaily that she was in town for a day. Her companion was pale and wore, evidently in town for the season, but they both found Anna's fate amusing.
"You see," said the tanned girl, "Anna took up with modeling. She made little plaster or putty or some of the kind of statues of the cats, and they weren't able to express their roses in mouth, so she persisted. She did her mother, and you know mothers never mind, though I should think Mrs. Brown would have objected to being made one broad, benevolent smile when she's really pretty and similar. Wolf, then Anna thought she would try Mr. Martial. Everything had progressed beautifully between them until then.
But when he saw himself with a cast in his eye, an awfully hooked nose and a sort of Mephistophelian leer, he was a little startled. He asked her in pained tones if he really looked like that, and Anna had got so puffed up by that time that she told him sillily that she had reproduced his face as it seemed to her.
So he won't carry his $3,000,000, and now Anna is modeling the consumptive clergyman who's there for his health. So far this somber New York girl has faithfully followed the fashions of her brother. She wears the vest and four-in-hand with easy grace, and it should be recorded to her everlasting credit that she is learning to tie the latter with home skill. Her brother has evened matters by wearing her broad-brimmed sailor hat and by appearing in the most brilliantly colored shirts. The gentlemanly girl will be glad to know that the craze for masculine attire will continue into the fall. The young lady in the ulster is not yet a reality, but the garment has been made and a certain New York girl is considering it. It is a copy of one worn by her English cousin. There is no apparent difference between it and the one which every man owns, if he can afford it. The hat is supposed to be a fashionable walking hat, but you couldn't tell it from a man's derby if you tried. Shooting jackets and capes have also made their appearance. Fashion alone knows why. They are strictly masculine, even to their numerous pockets.
Whether it be an entertainment, a glass of soda, a newly-made gown, or a book, if you like it, give praise where it can be heard or heard of by the person or persons responsible for it. Of course, there are persons who can't digest praise. It makes them conceited, and at times overbearing, but they are of the empty-headed minority, who ought not to be considered.
I went into a little country shop not long since on a very warm day, lured by the sign "Home-Made Cream." I didn't expect much. Something moist and cold would have satisfied me. A thin, worn, haggard-looking woman, carrying a young baby, came for my order. There was no choice. It was strawberry or nothing. She brought me the cream with one hand and clutched the child with the other. The cream was surprisingly good, home-made, with the real strawberries thickly strewn through it. When I paid her, I said: "That's the best ice cream I've eaten this summer, and I'm from New York too." You ought to have seen her face light up. She absolutely looked ten years younger. There was a little quaver in her voice as she replied: "I'm glad you like it. I used to make good ice cream when I was a girl, but don't get much time now." And she sang to the baby as I left the shop.
Mr. A., a newly-made millionaire, has distinct social aspirations; and does not particularly care to own up to what he thinks is his somewhat plebeian line ago. Notwithstanding this little weakness, however, he was ever on affectionate and dutiful son to the plain old farmer and his wife, who toiled and saved to give him his first start in the world. One of his inheritances, when they died, was a pair of portraits, done by a rural painter, two pictures with no merit whatever from an artistic standpoint, but astonishingly like as such daubs often are, with the homely Sunday clothes of the wearers realistically represented. Mr. A., meanwhile, has become quite celebrated for his "art collection," and his first impulse on receiving these staring and unmistakable bourgeois portraits was to relegate them to the garret. Filial affection, however, pleaded for the familiar old figures, and in the midst of his perplexity a brilliant idea struck him. He sent for Mr. B., a famous artist, and induced him to dress up his old parents in the most aristocratic garments of their day, leaving the dear old faces intact, but even going to the length of arranging the old lady's hair, so that when the picture was hung in his magnificent hall, she might have been taken for a duchess, so regal were her attire and surroundings; while the old gentleman, fondling the head of the setter between his knees, looked like "a fine English gentleman all of the olden time."
"If I must become a martyr to the summer days, I want to suffer like a lady." The speaker rocked back and forth in one corner of her town piazza, looking in a trim little toilet as if she had discovered the secret. "I am not a bit warmer, not a bit, dressed up in a decent fitting pair of corsets and a regulation gown than I would be if I were trailing about in a sloppy wrapper minus corsets. I always have on hand an interesting piece of work, and when this becomes too tiresome a good book, so that the warmest days of the season hold but little terror for me. I don't incline to iced drinks, fans and the like. I believe that this kind of pampering is all nonsense."
Have you ever thought how much the mind has to do with your comfort and discomfort, especially during the warmest days of the year?
I know any number of women who actually bound their pulses up to fever pitch by simply talking over the warm weather situation. The very best rule to follow is to ignore the question. If asked if you are warm, do a little fibbing on your own account and sooth how the thermometer will fall. I have actually become an object of envy to the summertime grumblers by merely carrying this rule into practice whenever given an opportunity.
Concerning that much-talked-of enterprise of the fair, the Woman's Dormitory, of which much was hoped by many of slender purses, one who has personally experienced its advantages and disadvantages speaks as follows:
"The building itself was exactly what was promised, rough, plain, but excellently planned and with impeccable sanitary arrangements. There all praise ends. The management is in a state of chaos, and as there seems to be a complete lack of system, you may imagine what sort of discomfort and inconvenience that may ensue and many others experienced. The matron who assigns the rooms appears not to hold any communication whatever with the secretary, who communicates with the stockholders. Thus persons like ourselves, who had engaged and paid for commodious rooms months ahead, had no possible accommodations of any sort. Any remonstrance at the office was met with a most unnecessary discourtesy, which very much irritated. The matron was conspicuous because it was only incivility that we encountered in Chicago. Altogether, the dormitory is a most dismal and exasperating failure, and especially so when one considers the possibilities of the plan had it been carried out by practical, reliable persons."
The causes of "conjugal infelicity" are like the stars in number, but seldom have they been so curious in character as these uncommonly related by a witness in a divorce court:
Witness considered himself the injured party, as the petitioner was continually objecting to the shanty of his foot. (Laughter.)
He further said that when he had his haircut, it was never done to please the petitioner. (Laughter.)
She also used to say his upper lip did not meet her approval.
She was continually blaming him for leaving out his "h's" in speaking.
He was not so well up in theological subjects as his wife.
And there was sometimes a sad divergence of opinion when they were talking about the sermon they had heard.
One is not surprised after this to hear that one of the allegations against the respondent is that he had struck the petitioner with the Methodist Magazine. Westminster Gazette.
Dignity of demeanor marks the lady everywhere and though a very witty speech may have to be strangled at its birth, it is better to do so than to indulge in a style of conversation that hurts those who are made the subject of it and also offends those who may not themselves be personally interested in it.
After meeting the illustrious young person, will be avoided by those who know the quality of her so-called wit and the friendship of those worth cultivating will be given to the girl who, in every way, shows a deference to those older than herself and who, in her communication with these of her own age, does not try to be funny at the expense of others. Life is too short to stand any flippant nonsense, and though she may think herself something above the average in mentality, the great majority of people will dub her flippant and impertinent and have no wish to continue her acquaintance.
A traveler newly returned from the oddest way an old woman on the windswept moor of Caithness, who, though not one of the 300, was the heroine of Balaklava. Her name is Elizabeth Coull. She is the wife of John Coull, a sergeant of the Ninety-third Highlanders. Kinglake tells her story in his history of the Crimean war. The Ninety-third, that "thin red line," was drawn up to repel an attack of Russian cavalry. It was surrounded by a regiment of Turkish artillery, which, as they saw the Russians approaching, became panic stricken. As they ran between their Highlanders and their camp, says Kinglake, they met a new and terrible foe. A woman came out of one of the Scottish tents, armed with a stick, and with withering invective beat every Turk within reach. The Highlanders, facing death, were driven up to receive the charge, but, although staring death in the face, they wore so amused they burst into laughter. The Turks, confronted by this new foe, frittered. The Russians were repulsed, the Highlanders covered themselves with glory, and Mrs. Coull was known, far and wide, as the woman who had tamed an army.

Worth, it is said, abhors tailor-made gowns, calling them "stable clothes," and turning his artistic eye in another direction when they are in view.
Hammock chairs have long filled an acknowledged summer want, but in their newest shape, with movable canopy attached, they are more desirable than ever.
This season has brought a large importation of Japanese and Chinese cotton and jute rugs, and they can now be bought at at least one-third below their value.
Spanish yellow Sateen ribbon is a fashionable trimming for cream-tinted nun's veiling, croppers, clairshakers, and similar sheer waterproof fabrics for young ladies' wear.
A lovely summer slippers is of waved gauze, in cream tint, plain and half illuminated by electricity, blue, Nile green, and purplish pink stripes. It is eight inches wide.
White duck hammock pillows embroidered in some stately athletic design, as tennis rackets, golf clubs crossed, or a hunting crop and whip, in colored flax are making young women giddy.
The dresses parasol of the season are like small boats, held although in some cases made of silk lace or not, in large size and ugly, the wand suggests the utilities rather than the ornaments of dress.
Mrs. Arthur Stannard (John Strange Winter) has founded an anti-circumcision league counting 11,000 members. And now the question before the league is "What are we here for?" For the circumcision has never come.
The prettiest waists now made by the modistes, and turned out of such factories as keep up with the changing styles, have long shoulder seams and sleeves that fall away from the shoulder line of the armholes.
Pink, yellow, and pale blue Indian muslins, with tiny flowers scattered over their surfaces, are made up over foundations of silk-looking batistes of plaited pink, blue, or yellow and black velvet trimmed bows, and quantities of crepulon lace are the most popular decorations.
Dressy bodices for day wear have crossed fronts low on the hips or around the waist line, attaching a circular or coat-shaped place curved to fit very snugly, thin about eight inches loop and softly lined with silk.
Frilled curtains, a frilled spread, and a round bolster finished with big rosettes converts the plainest bed into a delightful object, and, when added to one of the popular white and gold sets, means a very dream of girlish beauty and freshness.
A collarotto that is coming forward in cotton gowns and will be repeated in wool later on, is a three-quarter circle, shaped to fit smoothly around the shoulders and folded to points in front. It is effective in the stilleto linen and in heavy cotton goods.
Hose of the linen duck, piques, and similar fashionable materials, the many sheer wool fabrics used for tailor costumes are uncommonly elegant in tone and texture this season, and if artistically done, which is essential, they are the perfection of summer wear.
The parasol which is so well suited to gingham and white outing suits is of Indian pongee in the original cream color. The handles are of carved burnt ivory. The rains may descend and the hoods come, but they are as little affected by them as are cotton umbrellas.
With the new mask-plaited Eulalie collar, a high Spanish comb is made of ivory instead of one or two long jeweled hair pins. The top of the comb is set with Irish brilliants and the comb is often set in tambouriny in the coquettish manner that is very becoming to some women.
A costume that did not present a "spread-shoulder" air in spite of its colors was a gingham, with stripes an eighth of an inch wide in red, pale blue, and white. The skirt was made in three wide flounces, each edged with a narrow band of red ribbon. The bodice was made in surplice style with a bertha of the goods, also trimmed with a band of red ribbon.
At a recent wedding, the somewhat unusual array of eight ushers and nine bridesmaids assisted. Five of the bridesmaids wore pale green and the four others a delicate shade of pink. All had short veils matching the hue of their gowns. They came down the aisle from the chancel to meet the bride, walking first two, then one alone, repeating the order until all had passed. Ushers and maids wore all in line.
Eyeglasses make the daintiest possible morning dress. They come in white with tiny pink roses, little clusters of blue forget-me-nots, slender vine offshoots in green, scattered yellow cowslips, and "everything that's pretty." They are made with a simple, milled skirt, a surplice waist edged with narrow lace, full sleeves, and a wide crushed roll of white silk, and are charming.
The now-accepted bonnets are now in a sense
of freshness, but not as marked novelties. They still appear in pincossé, capote, style, with wide poke and toque shapes, and are made of tulle, crepe lisse, or exquisitely wrought Indian tissues with lace garnitures and iridescent bead gimps and crowns to match. These bonnets represent foreign "dross" styles, the delicate rush bonnets and lace braids being relegated to a secondary though still very fashionable place.
In a summer cottage recently seen quite the effective feature of every bedroom was the washstand splasher. A wide piece of cottage drapery, shirred on a slender gilt rod and suspended by white ribbon bands, formed the backdrop of the toilet stand, falling to the floor and coming well out on both sides. The protection of the delicate wallpaper was perfect, and the graceful banners imparted an airy effect that added much to the prettiness of the rooms.

The predilection for gold millinery crowns, edgings, galleons, ornaments, etc., arises from the marked partiality of the duchess of York for it. A lovely bonnet of cream white tulle, with a Persian pearl-dotted crown of gold and pale green passementerie, has an aigrette of golden thistles and daisies with velvety brown hearts set into a plaiting of airy lace, that gives the finishing touch to one of the prettiest bonnets for a rosy blonde that overloft the hands of a Parisian milliner.
A nice young bachelor confided the following comments to his neighbor at a dinner the other evening: "I do like a woman who sticks to one or two becoming dresses. She and her dress then become somewhat identified with each other, and one gets a distinct idea of a girl in one mind. But if she is one day in blue, and another in yellow, and the next in red, the individuality of the wearer is quite subservient to that of the gown, and it is just like looking at so many fashion plates or a kaleidoscope."

There are now sixty-five kindergartens in the city, and more than 10,000 children have been trained in them.
It is an undoubted fact that absinthe is becoming a very favorite tipple among smart women in England. It is supposed to improve the complexion and give vivacity to the conversation, but American women, fortunately, require no stimulant to make them vivacious.
Jane Hading, the French actress, is said to be more beautiful off the stage than on. She almost always wears black on the street, being probably quite well aware that it sets off her wonderful red gold hair, lashing eyes, and pale, mobile face advantageously.
Mrs. U. H. A. Bench of Boston, who composed a jubilate for the Columbian exposition, is authority for the statement that between the years 1915 and 1918, women composed 153 musical works, including fifty-five serious operas, six cantatas, and fifty-three comic operas.
An effort was recently made to secure the admission of women to membership in the laryngological association in England. Although the attempt was unsuccessful, the women regard it as an evidence of advance that the question should have been debated in the society.
A suggestion to campers or other folk who are really roughing it is how to secure cool butter without ice. Fill a box with sand to within an inch or two of the top. Sink the butter jars in the sand; then thoroughly wet the sand with cold water. Cover the box as nearly air tight as possible.
The English girl seems to be busy learning knowledge. Miss Mary O'Brien, for instance, has received a Herbert Smith scholarship, worth about $187 a year, for two years. She has decided to devote herself for that period to the study of the nitrogen supply of leguminous and other plants.

Miss Lillian Bell, the Chicago girl who wrote "The Love Affairs of an Old Maid," is a member of Chicago's 400 and is by no means an old maid herself, although she has been announced as 40 years of age. Miss Bell is young enough to laugh to scorn, for many years past, the "all-over cloth shoe" epoch, which she designates as the beginning of old maidhood.
A French authority on cooking gives these rules for testing the heat of an oven: Try it with a piece of white paper. If too hot, the paper will blacken in a blaze; if it becomes a lighter growth, it is fit for pastry; if it turns dark yellow, it is fit for bread and the heavier kinds of cake; if light yellow, the oven is ready for sponge cake and the lighter kinds of desserts.
It is so rarely that a woman, however musical, composes a good song, that the success in that direction of Miss Mary Knight Wood is the more significant. Her most known work was inspired by Mr. Richard Watson Gilder's requiem verses, "Thou," which she has set in one of the most moving of melodies. The composition is so arranged that there is opportunity for the cello, as well as for piano forte and voice.
The first stained glass window ever designed by a woman is in Grace Church. It is well worth a visit from stranger or resident, not only for this fact, but as well for its wonderful beauty of design and color. Its subject is "Jacob's Dream," and its author is the Miss Tillinghast whose attractive studio in Washington Square, whose $30,000 tapestries for Mr. Vanderbilt and whose other equally remunerative and artistic achievements have won her deserved honor both in this country and abroad.
The handwriting of Ruth McEnery Stuart, "said a young woman who has made a particular and practical study of graphology," has the strongest tendency to the artistic of any that I ever saw. Such beautiful, unexpected curves and graceful lines! There isn't a smallest characteristic of her charming literary work that her chirography doesn't betray. It may be added that all her stories, her books even, are written upon ordinary letter paper. She opens the sheet and writes across it horizontally, using the two middle pages as one.
A physician advises: "Learn how to rest. Don't wait to make a separate business of it; let it become part of the daily routine of occupation. Above all, begin relief, however slight, at the first moment its need is indicated. Stop work at your desk; lean back and close the eyes; relax the frame so far as possible for fifteen minutes; lie down, if convenient, for the same length of time; in any way relieve the tension, however briefly, but promptly, and the result will be a large ratio of gain in endurance."
A romantic story of constancy in adverse circumstances comes from Virginia. A pretty girl was beloved by a youth, whose sudden loss of fortune caused her parents to forbid the match. The young people resolved to elope. The lever arrived at the appointed hour under the lady's window. Unluckily, she had been looked in her room, but, rather than give up the plan, she leaped fifteen feet to the ground, dislocating her ankle severely. The young man carried her to a churchyard hard by, called up a surgeon, who set the ankle, carried his fair one to a vehicle, which took them to the house of a magistrate, who duly tied the nuptial knot.
