The Ncbrnalca. Content Case. WASHINGTON , May 16. Associate Justice Brewer has directed that a writ of error should issue in the Nebraska governorship contest , case. The mo tion was made yesterday before Judge Brewer by H. D. Estabrook of .Omaha. Justice Brewer stated that the order simply brought u transcript of the pro ceedings had in the supreme court of the state to the supreme court of the United States and that it had no bear ing whatever upon the citizenship of Governor Boyd , the question at issue. The supreme court will have to hear the argument before it will or could order a supersedeas to issue which would have the effect of causing a stay of proceedings. Since the supreme court has decided to not hear any more arguments at this session and is to ad journ on Monday the 25th , it is believed that nothing will occur before the fall term to change the governorship situa tion in Nebraska unless the supreme court can be impressed that it is a question of such moment as to warrant setting aside its decision as to not hear ing any more arguments and hear this one on the day fixed for adjournment. A single justice cannot make an order or decision which will change the pres ent situation or reinstate Governor Boyd. _ Arrived in Washington. WASHINGTON , May 1G. President and Mrs. Harrison and the members of the family who accompanied them on their tour to the south and Pacific slope a month ago yesterday arrived without demonstration just before 6 o'clock last evening. There was noth ing to mark their return from that which follows the home coming of any private family. It was concluded finally by the citizens of Washington that any demonstrations of a public character would be inappropriate , for the president went away in his private capacity and would want , especially after so long a jaunt , to return in that way. Any kind of a , reception would simply have kept him so much longer away from his fireside and it was thought that he and Mrs. Harrison would prefer to go quietly to the exec utive mansion with the grand children and other members of the family who were at the Ply moth rail road station in that way in which thirty-one days ago they bid them God speed on their long journey. It was probably fortunate that no effort whatever was made toward a public demonstration for a heavy cold rain began to fall before daylight this morning , and it poured down in the most disagreeable torrents all day. The chill and wet went almost through one's umbrella and clothing like a knife , and a more disheartening surrounding in a weather way could not well have been imagined. Despite the rain quite a number of the friends of the travelers were present when the beautiful train pulled in. When the train was nearing the na tional capital and the journey was al most at an end thepresidentsummoned to the observation car every person who had accompanied him on the trip , including the ladies and all the em ployes of the railroad and the Pullman car company , and made them a short address. He said he found that he had made just 139 speeches since they left Washington April 14 last , and he thought this a good occasion to make the number a round 140. He then re ferred to the unprecedented excellence and perfection of the railroad ser vice throughout the entire trip and said that the fact that they had been able to travel over ten thousand miles of territory in a splendidly equipped train without an accident or mishap of any kind and without one minute's variation from the prearranged schedule must al ways be regarded as a most remarka ble achievement. He said that Mr. George W. Boyd of the Pennsylvania road was entitled to great credit for his excellent management of the trip , and he added that it was a superb ex hibition of what training , energy and intelligence resulted for a man. He then returned his thanks individually to the conductor , the engineer and fireman , the chief and his assistants , the brakemen - men , the waiters and porters , and in fact every person who had rendered ser vice to the party on the trip. The president gave all the employes a sub stantial token of his appreciation for their attentions. The postmaster gen eral , the secretary of agriculture and the other gentlemen of the party also remembered the employes in the same manner. Senator Kyle's Plans. Sioux FALLS , S. D.t May 16. Sena tor J. H. Kyle arrived in this city last evening on his way to Omaha. He stopped over to visit his sister. Dr. Francis Kyle , and was met by a news paper correspondent. He said : "lam just from Washington , attending to my constantly growing mail. Why , the other day it took me five hours to fin ish reading the letters received in one day from my constituency. The fact of the matter is that a senator these days is nothing but a department run ner , a regular race horse. I am going to'the Black Hills in June where I will examine into the needs of the citizens * of that section. I have not yet selected my seat in tke senate and cannot state whether I will act with the republicans or democrats. I will not attend the Cincinnati alliance meet ing. I shall spend the entire summer in South Dakota , looking up the needs of the state in the way of national leg islation. " Still Waiting for New * . WASHINGTON , May 16. The same reply , "No news. " was made by Act ing Secretary Ramsey yesterday to the question as to whether he had heard from the Charleston or the Itata. A long cable dispatch in cipher was re ceived this morning , presumably from Admiral McCarr at Chili. It is known at the department that the Chilian in surgent cruiser Esmeralda put into Acapulco a day or two ago. She ap peared there late in the evening and slipped out of the harbor and disap peared before daylight. It appeared later in the day when the cable dispatch had been deciphered that it had' been sent by Admiral Brown from the San Francisco , which is now at some Chilian port. In formation as to its contents was re fused at the department further than it was an answer from Admiral Brown to the questions cabled him last week. This is an indication that even in the event of the failure of the Charleston to catch the Itata. the latter vessel will not have escaped all danger and will still have to run the gauntlet of the vessels now on the Chilian coast. Up to the close of business hours at the department no advices had been received of the Charleston or the Itata. How to Crush t1i ITIalia. NKW OHLKANS , La. , May 16. The citizens' committee appointed by the mayor last October to investigate the matter of the existence of the Mafia and to devise necessary means and the most effectual and speedy measures for the uprooting and total annihilation of such associations and also suggest a needful remedy to prevent the intro duction here of criminals and paupers from Europe , made its final report last night. The Qommittee gives a report of its proceedings and the work it accom plished. It denies responsibility for the lynching and says that the execu tion of the Italians was by people just ly aroused to the point of taking the law in their own hands. The report details also the work of the committee. On this point the report says : "A sub committee called upon the Italian con sul and assured him that the purpose of that body was to legally rid the community of criminals and give greater security to life and property to all its citizens of whatsoever national ity. The consul stated that he was satisfied of this and was ready to co operate with us to this end and he would immediately prepare and send us a report containing all the informa tion in his possession. He stated that he was convinced of the existence of the Mafia in this city and brought out the registration papers of Magnetic and pulled out the imprint of a seal which he informed us was the seal of the Mafia. He said he had strong sus picions which led to conviction in his mind as to who were the leads in this society , and he furnished the commit tee with the names. He stated that prior to the Hennessy assassination ho had in some way unconsciously incur red the displeasure of a coterie com posed principally of men who met their death at the parish prison on March 14 , that they invited him to supper , and although he partook spar ingly of oyster soup only , when he re turned home he was taken desperately ill , suffered intensely all night , and his symptoms bore all the evidence of poi soning and he was satisfied his life had been attempted. The written informa tion promised your committee never came. The consul said first that he had telegraphed to Washington for authority to give it to us , and after wards notified the committee that it being 'an extra judicial body' he did not feel warranted in giving us the promised information. " In conclusion the report says : "In the resolution of appointment this committee was requested to suggest needful remedies. It only remains for us , therefore , to point out the remedy if possible. In our opinion the rem edy is : First , regulation of immigra tion ; second , reform in the criminal laws and administration of criminal justice ; third , a law recognizing the existence of a bar association and endowing dewing it with full power to try and disbar any attorney whose evil prac tices make him unworthy of being an officer of the court. The oniy radical remedy which suggests itself is the entire prohibition of emigration from Sicily and lower Italy. " A Dead Defaulter. NE\V YOKK , May 18. Medad W. Stone , president of the American docks and trust company , who died at his lome on Good Friday , has been dis covered to be a defaulter. The de falcation was discovered ten days ago , but has just been made public. Stone's plan of action was to issue certificates lo his own order that he had on de posit at the warehouses of his com pany , certain amounts of cotton. These certificates he took to the banks and secured loans thereon. In this way he is said to have secured about ,000. Ku k's Orders. CHEYENNE , Wyo. , May 13. A con ference held here by Special Agent Pickreil of the bureau of animal in dustries and the Wyoming state veter inarian with the governor resulted in rescinding a clause in Secretary Rusk's order regarding the shipment of southern cattle , which prohibits these cattle being in pens or driven on trails in Wyoming that are to be occupied or crossed by cattle going to eastern mar cels before December 1. 1891. Agent Pickreil was authorized by Secretary Elusk lo make concessions satisfactory to the stock men. AT LINCOLN'S GRAVE.

President Harrison at the Tomb of Lincoln. SPKINGFIKLD , 111. , May 15. The presidential train made an early stop at Hannibal , Mo. , where the chief magistrate was received with every mark of respect. He made a short address. Leaving Hannibal at 5:40 the party was greeted at every subse quent station by enthusiastic crowds. The train readied Jacksonville at 8 o'clock , where the lire department school children and hosts of citixens crowded around the train and made a demonstration of welcome. When the train reached here its ar rival was heralded by the tiring of the national salute and cheering by an im mense crowd. The stay here was enl } an hour. ( Jovernor Fifer , Mayor Law rence , Senators Cullora and Palmer , Ivcpresentatives Springer and Hender son , ox-Governor ( Jglesby and ( Jolone Swain were among the first to greet the visitors and bid them welcome. Nearly every resident of the city was given an opportunity to see the chief magistrate and the members of his party. The local militia and Grand Army men and civic organizations were drawn up in line at the station and escorted the party to the Lincoln monument in Oak Kidge cemetery , where the formal cer emonies took place. Governor Fifei delivered an eloquent address of wel come , to which the president re sponded. The president subsequently visited the state house in company with the governor and made an address from his carriage. He said : "The demand for my presence in Washington is such that I cannot protract my stay with you this morning. " In his speech at Lincoln's tomb , Pres ident Harrison said : "The interest of this journey culminates today as we stand here for a few moments about the tomb of Lincoln. As 1 passed through the southern states I noticed those great centers of busy industry which have built since the war , as I saw how the fires in the furnaces had been kindled where once there was solitude , I could not but think and say that this hand that now lies beneath these stones kindled and inspired all we behold , all these fires of industry lighted at the funeral pyre of slavery. The proclamation of Abraham Lincoln can be read on all those mountain sides , where free men now lend their energies to the development of the Btates long under the paralysis of human slavery. I come today to this consecrated and sacred spot with a heart filled with emotions of gratitude that God , who wisely turned toward our eastern shores a body of God-fear ing and liberty loving men to found this republic , did not fail to find for us in the hour of our extremity one who was competent to lead the hearts and sympathies and hold up the courage of our people in the , time of our greatest national peril. The life of Abraham Lincoln teaches more useful lessons than any other character in American history. You have here in keeping a most precious trust. Toward this spot the feet of reverent patriots of years to come will wend their way , and as the story of Lincoln's life is read there will continually be spread through all our country influences and hope and inspirations to generations of children that are yet to come. We can say nothing here that will deepen the im pressions of this great life. I have studied it and been filled with wonder. His life was an American product. Xo other soil could produce it , and the greatness of it has not yet been dis covered or measured. As the inner history of the time in which he lived is written we find how his great mind was turned and moved in time of peril and delicacy the forces of our conntry in their home and in their foreign re lations with that marvelous tact , with that never failing common sense which characterized this man of the people. "And what an impressive lesson we have this morning as I see in the uni form of my country standing as guards around this tomb the sons of that race that had been condemned to slavery and was emancipated by his immortal proclamation. What an appropriate thing it is that these who were once a despised race , whose civil rights were curtailed even in this state , are now affectionate guardians of the ashes and the tomb in which they sleep. If we will all again and again read the story of Lincoln's life we will find our minds and hearts enlarged , our life and char acter deepened , and our consecrated devotion to the constitution and the flag of the government which he pre served to us deepened and intensified. [ Applanse. ] I shall go from this tomb impressed with new thoughts as to those who bear the responsibilities though in less troublesome times than the man to whose memory the soul bows in mourning. [ Appiause. ] I most heartily and sincerely thank you for this cordial welcome from Illinois , for the interesting moments we have spent about the tomb of that man who would have made the fame of Illinois imperishable and Springfield the Mecca of patriotic zeal if no other man in this glorious state had come to emi nence Abraham Lincoln. [ Cheers. ] In his life you have a treasury of in struction for your children and a spring of inspiration for your people that will be lasting. " memorial Day in ! V < > braka. Mav 15.
