Snlcldo of a Wyoming Judge *
CHEYENNE , Wyo. , Nov. 30 Judge
Isaac Bergman , ono of the most promi
nent citizens in Wyoming , locked him
self in his office and in a few minutes
after shot himself twice in the head.
Ono bullet produced a scalp wound and
the other tore out his eyes and inflicted
a wound from which ho ia dying.
Judge Bergman has been probate
judge and ex-officio county treasurer
for the last fourteen years , Ho has
been an active republican politician ,
but for the last few years has been
opposed to the faction controlling the
party here. When Wyoming was ad
mitted to statehood the constitution
adopted emerged the office of the pro
bate court into the district court. The
constitution provided that all county
officers should servo until the term for
which they were elected should expire ,
Under these contradictory clauses
Bergman , when ordered by Judge
Scott of the district court to turn over
the probate court records , declined to
obey the order and was sent construc
tively to jail for contempt of' ' court.
The supreme court sustained the action
of the district court and decided that

80. The Tribune
with Jay Gould , in
the utmost confi-
of the country and
und railroads would
jbent financial troubles
Vtispects than ever. In
ITwer to a , question whether there
would be any further changes in the
management of the Union Pacific , he
said : * To further changes are con
templated. Mr. Dillon will devote
himself to the building up of the prop
erty and his practical knowledge and
thorough honesty will soon have their
effect" In regard to the address of
Charles Francis Adams in resigning-
the presidency , Mr. Gould was some
what reluctant to spe ak. We did not
see it , " he said , "until we were on the
train on our return. I was surprised
at the tone of it , for when Mr. Adams
came to see me last week he thanked
me for my efforts to strengthen the
company. His statement about har
mony in the board during his adminis
tration is not wholly correct. The" fact
is that , as I understand it , the direc
tors knew very little about what the
president was doing. The road has
been run on principles that have
never before been carried into
practice. The difference between
the two presidents is very sim
ple , but very great. Mr. Dillon is a
practical railroad man. while Mr.
Adams is a theorist. The change in
the management of the Union Pacific
insures harmony among western rail
ways and the formation of a strong
association on the basis suggested by
Chairman Walker , It will be the pur
pose of the new association not so
much as to advance rates as to enable
the roads to get those now supposed to
be in force. Such an agreement will
preserve competition , for it will tend
to give the little roads a chaace to live
while the present methods is driving
them into control of large systems. I
think every state in the union ought to
pass laws compelling the observance
of an agreement on that basis. A
meeting of western railroad officers
will be held very soon , probably next
week. There will be no difficulty in
gaining the co-operation of the Bur
lington or the Rock Island company. I
have not seen Mr. Cable lately , but I
do not think he will have any serious
objections' to the agreement that is
proposed. It may be merely a ques
tion whether a road will be worth more
in or outside of the association. " In
regard to the money market and the
general financial situation , Mr , Gould
was confident that the most serious
trouble had been passed.
The Alliances for the Paddock 'Pare Food
Bill and against the Conger Lard BUI.
The following resolutions were adopted by the
farmers' Alliance of Illinois , October 29 :

'F. Hill , a widower , aged sixty , wau
publicly flogged with buggy whips in
the hands of Miss Flora Farres and
Bessie Dyer. Miss Farres' father held'
him while the girls administered the-
flogging. Hill has persisted in lavishing - '
ing his affections on the young ladies
and dogging their footsteps. So of

him. Hill has filed affidavits against

Bosebud Agency Just the Place for
an Ambush.
ROSEBUD AGENCY , S. D. , ( via Val
entine , Neb. ) Nov. 26. [ Special to
the Omaha Bee. ] The beef issue
passed quietly. No ono was refused
beef , even those coming from Two
Strikes , Crow Doers and White Horse
camps. No arrests were made. Short
Bull and the rebels have moved to
Corn creek , about seventy-eight miles
from Rosebud and Pine Ridge. Some
have taken their wives and children
and are driving all the cattle they can
pick up. No attack is anticipated at
Rosebud. Pine Ridge agency is a fort
while Rosebud is just the place to am
bush troops. The agency id situated
in a hole having six deep winding can
nons leading to it. Any" one of .these
would hold 2,000 Indians and their approach
preach could not be seen. Col. Smith
said : "If I picket and guard this
agency as it should be I have not suffi
cient men. Old Spotted Tail picked
this place out for the Indians , not for
the convenience of any one else. "
No place short of the bad lands is so
difficult to get out of. At present com
panies A , B and H of the Eighth in
fantry and A and G of the Ninth caval
ry are holding this hazardous situation.
One company is entrenched on a high
hill that commands two cannons. The
rest of the command is encamped near
the agency. The encampment is on
the only spot where the agency can be
protected , but as a camp ground it is
awful. During the whole year hun
dreds of teams stand there daily.
Said Captain Porter to-day "We are
perhaps sufficient for defense but as for
doing any'thing more even making a
demonstration we can do nothing. "
However no attack is anticipated at
present. But in case the force is or
dered to move after the rebels then
where will the agency be ? Just the
fighting force of the rebels is now un
known. Many of the Indians run toward
the rebel forces on the arrival of the
soldiers from fear alone. When these
are given to understand no harm will
be done those .at home many will re
turn. At Rosdbud the trouble is com
plicated , Crow Dog , White Horse and
Two Strike seems to be pushing mat
ters onnd urging Short Bull as a tool.
The Indian police are on the alert and
active , and a large force is added to
protect the government herd. Many
of the mixed bloods knowing the
qountry thoroughly are rendering gooc
service , and all can be depended on as
loyal. Everyone at Rosebud is pleased
with the reinstatement of Agent
Wright. _
Internal Revenue matters.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 26. The report
of the commissioner of internal reve
nue for the fiscal year ended June 30 ,
1890 , is at hand and contains some
interesting local information.
The total receipts from internal
revenue were $142,587,188. Of this
Nebraska paid $2,969.745. This is
more than was paid by California ,
Massachusetts , Michigan and other
states. California's amount was
$2,014,624 , and Colorado's only $318-
224. Illinois paid the largest amount
with $34,878,691. The Nebraska dis
tricts includes the two Dakotas.
One man was killed in Florida ,
Deputy Collector Frank Miller , while
attempting to enforce the revenue
laws and one was killedin , North Carolina
lina , Revenue Agent Kirkpatrick. This
is the smallest casualty list in years.
As to the payment of bounties to pro
ducers of beet sugar , the commissioner
says it is an entirely new feature which
his office lacks the machinery to carry
on. The office is simply a collection
office. It will be necessary to make a
chemical analysis in all cases where
bounty is claimed. It is not deemed
practical to have samples sent here and
rely on the tests on these as to the
entire production. The tests with
polarioscope will require a large force
of chemists , as the department of agri
culture had these chemists and is con
versant with the beet sugar industry.
The commissioner urges that congress
transfer this entire matter of bounties
to that department.
New York stands at the head of the
list in the manufacture of cigars and
cigarettes , Pennsylvania second. Ne
braska used 375,846 pounds of tobacco
and manufactured 19,098,346 cigars.
There are 202 cigar manufacturers in
the state of Nebraska , The state also
has 4 rectifiers , 1445 retail liquor deal
ers , 46 wholesale liquor dealers , 2
dealers in leaf tobacco , 9,510 dealers
in manufactured tobacco , 9 peddlers of
tobacco , 25 brewers , 44 retail dealers
in malt liquor , 42 wholesale dealers in
malt liquor , 11 retail dealers in oleo
margarine , 4 wholesale dealers in oleo
margarine , showing a grand total of
11,844 dealers who pay internal reve
nue taxes. There is no oleomargarine
manufactured in Nebraska but the state
pays $224 on retail sales and $1,020 on
wholesale sales. There are thirty-nine
retailers of oleomargarine in the state.
Favoritism In the Ranks.
SAN ANTONIO , Cal. , Nov. 28.
Something of a sensation in army cir
cles threatens to develop here shortly ,
growing out of the recent promotion
of certain enlisted men from the ranks
to second eutenantship. A case in
point is that of young Garashe Ord ,
son of the late General E. 0. C. Ord.
t
A few weeks ago Ord was examined by
the army board here and promoted
from second sergeant to second lieu
tenant and General Stanly assigned
him to a company of the Eighteenth
infan y , stationed at Fort Clark.
Colonel Laselle , commander at the
post is preparing a protest against the
reception of Lieuteuant Ord as com
missioned officer in his regiment on
the ground that his promotion was. the
result of a species of favoritism becoming -
coming too frequent in the United
States army. It is claimed by a cer
tain element of army officers that the
sons of rich men , politicians or army
officers who fail to pass the examina
tion for West Point are enlisted in the
army with the understanding that after
serving a short time in the ranks they
are to be given undue preference over
the ordinary private in the matter of
promotion.
A Mass of Figures Showing the Pros *
perlty of the Country.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 26. The report
of Comptroller of the Currency Lacey
covers operations of the bureau for
twelve months , ending October 311
During this period 307 new banking as
sociations were organized , fifty have
gone into voluntary liquidation and
nine were placed in the hands of re
ceivers. The net increase is 248 , con
stituting a larger growth than for any
similar period since 1865. The num
ber of active banks October 31 was
8,567. These banks have in capital
stock $659,782,865 ; bonds deposited to
secure circulation , $140.190,900 , and
bank notes outstanding $179,755,643 ,
including $54,796,907 represented by
lawful money deposted to redeem cir
culation still outstanding. The gross
decrease in circulation'during the year ,
including notes of gold banks and failed
and liquidating associations was $22-
267,772 , and' decrease of circulation
secured by United States bonds , § 5-
248,549. At the last report the gross
deposits of these banks , in luding
amounts due the banks , was $2,023-
502,067 ; loans and discounts $1,970-
022,687. Both these items show a
great increase over any previous re
port.The
The comptroller again calls atten
tion to the fact that the issue of circu
lating notes has become unremunera-
tive on account of the high premium
commanded by federal bonds ; renews
the recommendation that the obliga
tory deposit of bonds be reduced ; the
circulation issued , be equal in amount
to the par value of the bonds pledged ,
and the semi-annual duty be fixed at
one-fourth of one per cent per annum.
The passage of a bill to this effect , now
pending in both houses , would at once
increase the volume of paper money
by about $15,000,000 , which would in
a marked degree relieve the present
monetary stringency.
New associations could form more
rapidly without advancing the premium
on bonds necessarily purchased by the
secretary of the treasury for the sink
ing fund.
The passage of the act providing for
the purchase of silver bullion is con
sidered by the comptroller tantamount
to a declaration that the national banks
are not to be called upon to furnish
additional circulation , evidently needed
and a discussion of the measures pro
viding for the extension and perpetua
tion of note issues based on some new
form of security is deemed inopportune.
The exhaustive statement of the pro
portion of- coin , paper money , etc. .
used in banking operations in 1881 and
1890 shows "an increase of money equal
to 68 per cent , which is deemed sig
nificant when considered in connection
with the present apparent insufficiency
in the amount Of coin and paper money
in circulation.
The comptroller says it is evident
the lack of currency is greatly aggra
vated by the retirement of national
bank notes , which form of paper alone
possess that elastic property so essen
tial in perfect circulation , All the
money issued directly by the govern
ment is necessarily non-elastic by rea
son of being in all cases available for
the lawful money reserve of the na
tional banks and in most cases possessing - '
sing legal tender quality. The comp
troller says if the rapid extension is a
correct criterion , the national banking-
system is more favorably regarded than.
heretofore and the transactions of the !
year have been attended by more than
the average degree of success.
The December Century will contain ,
four complete stories , by Elizabeth
Stuart Phelps , Joel Chandler Harris ,
Richard Harding Davis , and Maurice
Thompson. Three of them are illus
trated. Besides these , there will be
the first chapters of a novelette by ;
James Lane Allen , "Sister Dolorosa , " )
the scene of which is laid in a Kentucky - ;
tucky convent ; and the second install- ;
meet of "Colonel Carter of Carters
ville , " by F. Hopkinson Smith , intro
ducing the author's celebrated "One- ;
.egged Goose Story. " The coming year'
of The Century will be unusually strong
in fiction.
Not Talking for Newspapers.

enue Nelson F. Acres about the sena
tor and the probability of some demo

ter reading it carefully he said : "So
Cleveland is mad because Acers gave

don't blame him. "
Asked what he had to say on the
subject , the senator said : "I am not

Dillon Elected President of the Union
Pacific.
BOSTON , Nov. 27. The board of
directors of the Union 'Pacific mot at
their office in this city yesterday ,
There were present the following di
rectors : Charles Francis Adams ,
Edwin P. Atkins , Samuel , Samuel
Carr , F. Gordon Dexter and John P.
Spaulding , Boston ; Sydney Dillon and
Henry H , Cook , New York ; Marvin
Hughitt , Chicago ; Mavcus A. Hanna ,
Cleveland , O. ; Joseph H. Milliard ,
Omaha ; James A. Rumrill , Springfield ,
Mass. The government directory was
represented by John F. Pluminer of
New York.
After the preliminaries of opening
the meeting had been completed ,
President Adams resigned his office
and made a forcible and characteristic
address. Immediately following Pres
ident Adams' speech , Messrs. John P.
Spaulding , Samuel Carr and James A.
Rumrill tendered their resignations ,
which was promptly accepted , and the
four Massachusetts managers of the
great road at once withdrew from the
room. Their places were filled with
out any dissent , and Jay Gould , * Rus
sell Sage , Henry B. Hyde and Alex E.
Orr took their places in the directory
as soon as they were elected. Their
first business was the election of a suc
cessor to Mr. Adams and Sydney Dillon ,
a former incumbent of the oflice and
ex-president of the Gould interest , was
elected.
The altered complexion of the board
necessitated , of course , a change in the
make-up of the committees , and this
was the business next in order. On
the executive commission Mr. Gould
succeeded ex-President Adams , and
Russell Sage took the place of James
A. Rumrill. That committee as now
constituted consists of Jay Gould of
New York ; Frederick L. Ames , Edwin
F. Atkins and F. Gordon Dexter of
Boston ; Sydney Dillon , Russell Sage
and Government Director Jonn P.
Plummer of New York. Henry B. Hyde
and Alexander E. Orr replace Messrs.
Rumrili and Spaulding on the finance
committee ; Messrs. Sage , Orr and Gov
ernment Director George E. Leighton
of St. Louis succeed Messrs. Adama
and Carr and late Government Direct
or James W. Savage of Omaha on the
land committee ; Mr. Gould succeeds
Mr. Adams on the committee on con
necting roads ; Mr. Hyde succeeds Mr.
Adams on the committee on bridge
over the Missouri river , and Govern
ment Director Jesse Spaulding suc
ceeds Mr. Savage on the coal lands and
and coal department committee'
Second Vice-President Gardner M.
Lane , when the fashion of resigning
was in full swing , sent in his resigna
tion , but it was not accepted. All the
business was transacted without the
least discussion and without any indi
cation of friction beyond that which
appeared between the lines of Retiring
President Adams' speech.
At the meeting1 of the executive com
mittee the name of S. H. H. Clark ,
vice president of the Missouri Pacific ,
was mentioned for the position of gen
eral manager or tne union jfaciiic , out
no action was taken and the committee
adjourned without transacting any bus
iness.
President Dillon said in an interview
that his policy would be to harmonize
all conflicting interests and build up
the road.
Koch and His Treatment.
BERLIN , Nov. 28. The hospitals in
this city have already refused the ap
plications of 400 physicians who have
come here to study the Koch method
of treatment on the ground 'that it is
impracticable to instruct successfully a
large number of those who desire to
study the method. Already 2,000 for
eign doctors have arrived here for the
purpose of informing themselves re
garding the treatment.
Prof. Kock has been elected honora
ry member of the society for preserva
tion of public health.
Dr. Koeller , chief of the charity hos
pital here , while admitting that mar
velous effects have been produced by
injection of Prof. Koch's curative
lymph , declares that as yet there has
been no certain experience of a lasting
nature of cure. Dr. Koeller says , how
ever , that the lymph has proved indis-
jensible in diagnosing cases in which
ihere was doubt of the existence of
luberculosis.
Parnell Will Remain tender.
LONDON , Nov. 28. The Irish home
/ule members of parliament met and a
motion made that Parnell be re-elected
chairman of the Irish parliamentary
jarty carried unanimously. , It was an
nounced that Parnell will retain the
eadership at the express desire of his
followers.
Parnell had a conference with Jus
tice McCarthy , during which he handed
McCarthy a bundle of papers contain-
ng memoranda for his guidance as ses
sional chairman of the Irish party.
Parnell addressing the meeting said
nothing but the conviction that his col-
eagues desired to still utilize his ser
vices in the commo'n cause induced him
o remain in the position , which under
lis altered circumstances exposed him
and them , through him , to the attacks
of opponents.
Gladstone's ultimatum will probably
result in the withdrawal-of Parnell.

The Worlc for Congress. ' , * ;
WASHINGTON , Dec. 1. When tha {
second session of the Fifty-first con *
grcss is called to order at noon today
it will bo confronted by an immona * " '
amount of business , much of it th
remnant of last session and some of it-
new legislation. Allowing for th .
Christmas holidays there will bo sor- '
enty-nino working days In the session.
Among the bills left over from last'
session , uro the election bill , the Con *
gor lard bill and the bankruptcy bill.
These bills , as is well known , have al
ready passed the house and now await
action only by the senate. It is likely
that there willl bo substitutes offered
for the lard bill and the election bill.
"
The Paddock pure food bill will probably - -
ably bo the ono offered as a substitute
for the Conger bill , while Senator'
Hoar's bill will bo summitted ds a sub
stitute for for the Podge bill as a mat
ter of course. If these substitutes are
passed by the senate it will again j
throw them before the house. While
the senate is struggling with the above
named bills the house will be , consid
ering the shipping bills and the bills *
transferring the revenue marine serv-f
ice from the treasury department , which
were left over from last session , hav
ing passed the senate. There ar
several bills now upon the calen
dar unacted upon , but reported
favorably from committees amen
them the international copyright ; to
establish a limited postal service ; to
increase the naval establishment ; to
telegraph companies under the opera
tion of the interstate commerce law ; to-
provide fortifications ; to establish a
gun factory on the Pacific coast ; to
amend the interstate commerce act ; to
protect American forests , and to reduce
the amount of bonds required to secure
the circulation of national banks V >
§ 1,000 for each bank. To consider all
of these bills would require more time
than this session affords , and in order
to accomplish anything it will be nee- ,
essary to lay aside some of the bills j
and act only on those which are absolutely -
lutely important. Outside of the bills
mentioned are the now ones which are' '
regarded as those requiring more at
tention. They are the reapportionment -
ment bill and the various appropriation
bills. The appropriation bills will
likely give little trouble , as the demo
cratic members of the appropriations
committee say they will give no oppo
sition. The reapportionment bill ,
however , is sure to precipitate a long
and acrimonious war. Then there are
the many small bills which will con
sume a great deal of time and which
are of local importance only. Altogether - ,
gether , the session will have its hands ,
full to overflowing and it will require
all the energy of the leaders to get any
thing out of the accumulated mass.
Cattle Shippers Complain.
WASHINGTON , Dec , 1. A great deal
of complaint has been heard from cat
tle shippers at the ports of New York ,
Boston , Philadelphia and Baltimore on
account of the delay occasioned in the
carrying out ofr the regulations pro
vided in the cattle inspection act. The
law only went into effect formally on
the loth inst. , and of course there
have been a good many hitches in car
rying out its provisions at the outset.
The inspectors at the ports named , as
well as those at Norfolk , and Newport
News , Va. , and others stationed in the
stockyards of Kansas City , Chicago ,
Buffalo and Pittsburg are required to
examine carefully every animal pass
ing through them destined for Europe ,
and all those found to be free from
disease arc tagged with a metal tag
affixed to the ear , which tag is a guar
antee of inspection and sound health.
The secretary of agriculture believes
that as soon as this new system is in
thorough operation it will result in
relieving the American cattle producer
irom the annoyance and loss which the
embargo placed upon American cattle
by Great Britain and other foreign
countries has caused.
The Farmers' Alliance. ' -
OCALA , Fla. , Dec. 1. The annual ,
meeting of the farmers,1 alliance begins'
. In interview President
Tuesday. an to-day ,
ident Polk said the national alliance
would stand squarely on the platform
adopted at St. Louis. Referring to the
recent election , he said that for the-re
sult one must look beyond the McKia' '
ley bill. "The people , " he said , "have
scratched away all the rubbish of the
negro question , bloody shirt , tariff and
federal control of elections. It is the
money power , the rule of plutocracy ,
that has been keeping the people down ,
and the slogan henceforth is financial
reform. The national banking sys
tem must go. The farmer and laborer
must be given a chance to get what
money they need upon security of their
real property. The issue is to be a
square one between the manhood of
America on one side and the great
American dollar on the other , and un
less the leaders of the great parties
recognize the real issue and make it
there is going to be terrible times in
this country. Sectionalism cannot
pull the people apart any longer. We
are sick of that rubbish , and only men
who can secure popular support are
those who understand the great eco
nomic questions of the day. "
