Constitutionality of the Nebraska Anti
Trust Law M ill He Tented.
The case of the State of Nebraska
against tho Standard Oil company will
come up for. hearing before the su
preme court next Tuesday on a de
murrer filed today by Attorney Gen
eral Smyth, the object of which is to
strike out two clauses of the defend
ant's answer which attack the consti
tutionality of tho Nebraska anti-trubt
law, says the Lincoln correspondent to
the Omaha lies. James M. Wool
worth, Frank ! McCoy and probably
John M, Thurston will appear for the
Standard Oil company and Attorney
General Smyth will present the s-ide of
tho state.
Toe questions to bo discussed are of
a legal nature, all touching upon the
constitutionality of the act under
which the suit was instituted. In the
demurrer filed today Attorney Gen
eral Smyth hods that the attorneys
for the defendant have placed a wrong
interpretation upon the law and in
sists that for this reason clauses 0 and
7 of ItWr answer should be stricken
ou. Tho consideration of this prop
osition will delay the final hearing of
the ca-se for several months and if the
attorney general is overruled the
state's cause of action will bo seriously
crippled. The attorney general con
tends that there is nothing in tho anti
trust law or its title which is contrary
to tho constitution, but the answer of
the defendant cites several tpecifis
points of allegeif unconstitutionality
and threo more which are held to be
contrary to the constitution of the
United States.
Tnis case has attractel widespread
attention, for upon its decision depends
the course to be pursued against trusts
in other states. James M. Wool worth
has been employed as additional coun
sel for the defei.se and preparations
are being made by that side of tho ca e
for one of tho hardest legal battle3

Made in the House Resolution 11 earn

Our ."Meat ami IJutter.
Washington. April 2S. General Mer
rlani was the star witness be-fore the
house military committee yesterday in
the matter of the Coeur d'Aleno in
quiry. General Meriam described in
detail his orders from the war depart
ment and the assembling of troops by
his orders. His orders to his inferior
officers were that arrests and seizures
were to be made by deputies under the
protection of troops. He was, he said,
very careful on this point. He 6aid
that the prisoners at all times were
better sheltered from the weather than
were the troops. There was, however,
a deficiency in bedding. He denied that
he had held any conferences with mine
owners or managers, but said he had
several times talked casually with
mine operators who came to or were
passing through Wardner.
Contradicts Attorney Kobertson.
General Merriam stated positively
that he had never been In the room
where the inquest was held at Ward
ner, denying the statement of Attorney
Kobertson to tnat effect. Kobertson
interrupted to state that he had been
under the impression that General
Merriam had been present. General
Merriam's testimony followed closely
the lines of his report. During twenty
eight years of service, he said, he had
never known a soldier to strike a pris
oner with a musket or jab him with
a bayonet. Such testimony, he said,
therefore to him was utterly incredi
ble. State of Rebellion Existed.
He declared most emphatically that
a state of rebellion existed In -Idaho,
and there was a menace to public
safety there. He took up each preamble
of the resolution under the operation
of which the committee was acting, de
nying absolutely most of the facts al
leged therein. General Merriam said
the United States troops were in
charge of the prisoners simply as
guards in carrying out the authority
of the state. The general said he felt
great solicitude as to the prisoners and
their long confinement. He finally took
up the matter with the war depart
ment, writing and telegraphing on the
subject. Two of the letters had not
heretofore appeared in the correspond
ence furnished by the war department,
evidently having been mislaid.
What the Troops Are Doing Xow.
In one of the letters General Mer
riam advised that a part of the troops
be withdrawn. Be stated also that the
continued service of the troops on
guard duty had led to the bribery of a
sergeant and the escape of eight pris
oners. At present. General Merriam
stated, the troops were not guarding
any prisoners. A few troops remained
in garrison in the locality, but without
having any duties in connection with
the disturbance, although available in
case of an outbreak as long as martial
law continued.
OCR MEATS NOT EXCLUDED.
German Ambassador Denies a Story Cabled
from Iterlin.
Washington, April 28. It was cahled
from Berlin Thursday night that the
North German Lloyds Steamship com
pany had been enjoined not to bring
American meat products freshly
slaughtered or dairy products to Ger
man ports. Bveu if such an order had
been made, while it undoubtedly would
tend to accentuate the growing feeling
in the United States over the repeated
attacks on American commerce, it was
realized in oihcial circles here that the
German government has, legally speak
ing, an undoubted right to deal at its
pleasure with a corporation of its own
creation such as this steamship com
pany was declared to be.
But it was possible yesterday after
noon to obtain from an authoritative
source a full contradiction of the state
ment in the following terms:
"With reference to the dispatch
dated Berlin, April 20, and publishing
this morning, showing that Prince von
Ilohenlohe has forbidden the North
German Lloyds Steamship company,
under article 20 of the subvention con
tract, to make further importations of
and to land in German, Dutch and
Belgian ports fresh nieats, dairy prod
ucts or cereals, it was observed by the
German ambassador today that no
German steamship company trading
with the United States receives any
subsidy, and that consequently there
Is no such subvention contract regard
ing German trade with the Uaited
States.
"In view of this fact, it may be de
nied that any such order has been is
sued, excluding meat and dairy prod
ucts of the United States from Ger
many." Congres of Religion.
Boston, April 2S. The liberal con
gress of religion, which has been hold
ing its sixth annual session here this
week, voted to drop the word "liberal"
on account of its possibility to mislead
ing interpretations, and be known as
"The Congress of Iieligion." The
committee on nominations repoted the
following officers, who were elected:
The Rev. Dr. Hiram W. Thomas, of
Chicago, president; the Iiev. Jenkins
Lloyd Jones, of C'hicasro, general sec
retary; Leo Fox, of Chicago, treasurer.
Uody Found in the River.
Abilene. Kan., April 2S. The body
of John Blagg, a prominent Farmers'
Alliance lecturer, was found in the Sol

evidently been In the water for sever

der or suicide is not known.
Nicaragua Concession Cancelled.
Washington, Aprjl 28. The Nicara
guan governiiicnthas - finally can
celled the concession to the Maritime
Canal company to construct a ship ca
nal across Nicaragua. This decision is
the result of proceedings covering a
period of nearly five months. The orig
inal concession would have expired
Oct. 5 last, but the company applied
for an extension of the period. This
was refused by the Nicaraguan gov

Rheumatism may attack with such suddenness and severity as to make within a few days a healthy,
active person helpless and bed-ridden, with distorted limbs and shattered nerves ; or it may be slow in
developing, with slight wandering pains, just severe enough to make one feel uncomfortable ; the ten

Like other blood diseases, Rheumatism is often inherited, and exposure to damp or cold, want of proper

in early life, but more often not until middle age or later. In whatever form, whether acute or chronic,

Dr. Disbrow has not only demon
strated that his cure is a dead shot for
whiskey in a few hours in the worsi
cases possible, but morphine as well.
The expression on the lips of all our
citizens who have watched his wotk is
that it is wonderful. A bid case of
morphine cured in forty-eight hours
right here in Piattsmouth is a knock
out argument. Dr. Disbrow has prac
tically verified every assertion he has
made concerning his remedies while
here.

WThen a woman goes to buy wall pa
per, it is a solemn function. She thinks
when she first starts out that she
knows what she wacts; but after she
has looked over about a million samples
she gets rattled and takes a lot of
samples home, and calls in the neigh
bors for their advice. And the neigh
bors look wise, and each one selects a
different pattern, and they get the un
fortunate lady so balled up that she
finally buys something that is a morti
fication to the epiriteverafter. In this
particular a woman is inferior to a man.
When a man goes to buy anything, he
knows in ad vance just what he wants,
and it is useless to show bim samples.
He insists upon having the thing that
his heart is sot upon, and gets it and
pays three prices for it, isn't worth
five cants any how. Walt Mason.
An Epidemic of Whooping Cough.
Last winter during an epidemic o
whooping cough my children con
tracted the disease having severe
coughing spells. We had used Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy very success
fully for croup and naturally turned
to it at that time and found it relieved
the cough and effected a complete cure.

wood House, Norwood, N. Y. This
remedy is for sale by all dauggists.
The officials of the department of ag
riculture are considerably annoyed by
the continual reappearance of a fake
story about millions of dollars that
aro being made in skunk farming in
different parts of the country. The
published article assumes to have been
written upon information gathered at
the department, and people in every
part of the country are vrriting daily
for detailed information. Secretary
Wilson and all of his subordinates re
pudiate the story. They say they do
not know of anybody that ever made
money raising skunks.
