The new tariff bill went into effect Oct. 6 , It increases the cost of imported goods from 10 to 50 per cent. We have bought during the last
three months more than double the usual quantity in anticipation of the passage of this bill. Our stock is very large in the departments principally
effected by this bill , but our customers will not have to pay any advance until the supply is exhausted. We call special attention to the bargains
offered in Velvets , black and colored Dress Goods , Dress Trimmings end Table Linens , they are the departments that are eflectecl mostly by the
new tariff bill. This opportunity is worthy of the attention of economic housekeepers.

About Lincoln ,
LINCOLN , > eb. , Oct. 11 rSpecial to TOE
Etc. j A queer case came tip la the district
court yesterday afternoon , the second one of
tbe kind known in Lancaster county judicial
annals. It was tbat of Louisa Wtlgrifle rs
August Welgriffe , an action brought to annul
a marriage contract. Ia Claret ) , 1573 , the
jilalntifi was employed as a servant in a drag
store In the to\rn of Leese , province of Hano
ver , Germany , when she met and was mar
ried to the defendant , us she chums by false
representations and the machinations of bis
brother and other relatives. August had
been an inmate ol the asylum in Hanover ,
but bolnr released on parole as a harmless
person , was seat to America , settling
In Seward county. He tired of life in
this country , and went borne to
Germany , but bis friends not beinpvery
anxious to keep him ( according to his story )
tney induced her to marry him by represent
ing that he was all right , of good character ,
nod possessed of sufficient property to pro-
ride for his family. The young couple came
to America , but tbe wife soon found oat that
August's mind was affected , he eipressln ? a
decided predlliction to sleeping with the
. _ _ , bogs and cattle in preference to bis house.
Oa ono occasion be , vent to a neighboring
fanner and proposed to cut down a big hill In
order to maVe it available as fanning land ,
and hired teams for that purpose. On an
other occasion he chased a neighbor across
the township with a club , aad spent the en
tire month of April of one year ic hunting
for a boshel of new potatoes.
Otber witnesses were brought forward ,
who told of August's actions , and it was also
brought out that ho bas been an inmate of the
asylum hero since Is > 75. The marriage was
annulled by the court This action brough
out the fact not generally known that a per
eon can get a marriage annulled if it can be
proven that at the time the marriage centra *
was entered into tl e other party was insane
cr an idiot , but that the contract cannot be
annulled if either party to it becomes insane
at tor the marriage. Thl is based on the fact
tbat marriace fc > a civil contract , both parties
to which acreo to cherish the otnor ia sick
ness or in health , and therefore if one be
come * in ae nfleruards the other cannot
evade this provision of tbe contract.

Lovasa and waj ic ajeJ ia the jiii'ano of
nding his wife's existence. It did not take
ic ofiicers Ions to reach the house , but the
iolent husband had evaporated and was not
cantured. Investigation developed that
Villiam had not gene crazy , but was only
ghting mad. He and his wife were pre-
ervicg a famjy jar. when William rushed
t the woman and forced her backwards
ver a hot stove , holding her there until she
vas oadlv burned about tbc body , and until
her clothiatT took fire. Mrs. McNeil
screamed lustily and broucht the neighbors
n in a harry. In the confusion incident to
mtting out the flames William escaped. The
roman was more frightened than hurt , bat
he services of a physician were necessary
to alleviate the win.
PETER WAS VEKIUXT.
Peter Gallagher came in from Walton this
morning with a fellow he had known but a
ew days , to get a watch that had been left
or repairing at the jewelry store , 1 4 O
street. Peter did not have an empty pocket
to put the watch in , and his companion vol
unteered the use of his. Pete accepted , and
a little later the fellow borrowed a dollar of
lim to eel his trunk , which be said was at
the depot. About an hour afterwards Peter
drove down to the depot to cet the trunk , but
got his eyeteeth cut instead. There was no
nan , no trunk , no dollar , no watch , and Peter
is enraged in looking for the Quartette.
THE TELCPnOSE COMPANY TO BE SCED.
T. W. Harvey , the Turlington stockman
andlumbtr king , bas instructed his attor
neys to bring suit against tbe .Nebraska tele
phone company for * 5,000 damages for refus
ing to allow nis Lincoln representative con
nections with parties by telephone. It ap
pears that the representative desired to talk
with Wilber parties , with the understanding
that if bo did not gut them no charge would
be paid. He didn't , and when the bill was
presented refused to pay. The telephone
company in reprisal refused bim connections
and it so happened that he wanted to talk
with bis house on important business , but
was prevented.

conspired with E. I. Ferguson of Friend and
confessed judgment in the district court for
? 1,3 JO on , as claimed by Sherwin , a claim
trumped up for the purpose of def raadin ?
him ; that when the deputy came to levy on
the block Gagbegan conspired with him to
allow him to make a levy , by oeing near the

shifting train a * he was on his way home
Pasbv's wife and children are broken
hearted over the husband and father's sudden

Die. who will def rav all exoenses.
The body of the man was only slightly cut

EX-SENATOU TVBOR.
He Says Colorado Still Demands Free
Coinage.
The Paxtoa entertained an ex-senator of
the United States last night in the parson of
Hon. H. A. W. Tabor of Colorado.
Senator Tabor has long been conspicuous
among the millionaires of the Centennial
state for the phenominal episoaes of his re
markable career. He laid the foundation of
his fortune in the corner grocery of a mining
camp , suddenly became "rich beyond
the dreams of avarice" by fortunate develop
ments in his raining properties , was reduced
as suddenly to flaancial straits by unlucky
speculations , and mounted again to great
wealth on a boom in Denver real estate. He
built and still owns Denver's magnlncent play
house , the Tabor Gncd. In Iii3 , having
been lieutenant governor , he aspired to a
seat in tne United States senate and was
elected for aa unexpired term of thirty days.
In that brief time he gave the national capi
tal a taste of sensational mi nLticence which
It has not yet forgotten.
A Bee representative obtained a brief in
terview with the ea-senator last evening.
Speaking of the silver bill he saii :
"It is all nght as far is It goes ,
bat Colorado want * free coinage and
is bound to baxe it soon. Silver
has advanced under the present bill
from 9.'cents to $1.10 per ounce and carried
the price of corn and wheat up with it , but
with free coinage silver will be vrorth exactly
tl ' 'J-UH That is what Coloraao wants
and uhat will benefit the country more than
auy other legislation. The success of the
present law ha * cleared the way for
free coinage by killing o3 the bug
bear of the cry , TAmenca will become
the dumping grwmd for the silver
of the world t Great Britain has not shipped
silver here since the Uw too * effect , and will
not under free coinage. She has none to
spare. I say ooldly. and challenge contra
diction , that free coinage -would add 25 per
cent to the value of every American farm.
\Vhyl \ Because with silver at Jl.ifl England
could no longer afford to buy the wheat of
India , and our farmen woold supply the new
demand tbat would come with the closing of
that gr at source of supply. Colorado asks
free r' nase in the interest of the common
prosperity of tbe country. "
in reply to questions , tne ex-senator saia
that Denver and suburbs showed up about
I'M , ( XX ) population by the census , it a tnfle dis
appointed , but looks forward to an immense
growth hereafter. He confessed his aa mir
ation of Omaha's census figures , saij Wyom
ing would develop rapidly under statehood ,
and positively refused to talk of Colorado
politics and politicians.

THE ST PAUL IS CALLED DOW3
The Board of Cliinnea Sip It Has Too
Much of a Good Thing.
IT MUST DIVERT'TRAFFIC TO OTHER ROADS.
Managers of Western Roads
in a Tight Place Bccau'-e of
the Inadequacy of
Equipments ,
Cntcioo , Oct. 11. [ Special Telegran to
THE BEE. ] It has been adjudged bj- the
board of chairmen that the St- Paul road is
getting too muca traffic. Consequently , under
the agreement to divide equally all the traf-
fie onginatin ; in Kansas ; Nebraska and In
dian Territory , the chairmen have ordered
the St. Paul to divert tropic to the Rock-
Island and Alton. They likewise recommend
that of this traffic at least one hundred cars
to each road bo cattle. The decision ended
with a sharp criticism on the Atchison.which
has ignored the last ruling ot the chairmen
ordering it to turn over 1OX ) cars to various
competitors. The order was siimed by
Chairmen Aldacar.\VallferTJohn K.Paithorn ,
J.V. . Midely aadV. . \V. Fiale.v Chairman -
man Gsddarl ot the trunk linei is also a
member of the committee , but he was not
present at the mcetinp.
The cnairmen refu ; e to speak o ! their de-
cisioas in particular. Speakin ? Keaerally ,
Chairman Midgely said , today : "Weaon't
believe our division ) f-traCic arrangement is
a pool withiu the meaning of the interstate
commerce act. The nine competing roads
pave the five chairmen complete control for
three months of the business arising in Kan
sas. Nebraska and Indian territory.e di
vide it as we see fit. Xo living man outside
of the chairmen knows even whether we
have agreed on jwreentazes which the
various roads shall carry.Ve simnly
tell the rood carrying more than we think it
ought to taice to turn over some of its busl-
ne = s to a road getting-less than we think it
should have. "
Xo one believes tha * the chairmen are co-
inc it blind , hoxverer , aad thsir arreed per-
centases can readily tie computed from a com
parison of their orders with the total tonna.-e
as reported by Chairman Midgely. The per-
centajre is. of coarse , based oa mileage in the
.states and territory named and is nearly or
eractly as follo'.vi : Atchisoa , 30 p r cent ;
KocKlslaud , 15 ; Burtmcton , 1-1 , Alton. 11 ;
St Paul , \Vabash , S , Missouri Pacific , : ;
Chicago , SL Paul A : Kansas City , 4 ;
Kansas City. Fort Scott .t Moiaphu ,
2 The above arc the exact
proportions , taking the total trade cf each
line since August 1 and figuring the chanpui
ordertxl by the chairman.
At least two of the lines are estremelv
shaky in their allegiance to the d i vision-of-
traaic scheme. They favored a money pool ,
