Last evening a report was circulated In railroad circles that the Hock Island would niako another effort to go across the Union Paelllo brjdgo Into Omaha.

SEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS , Probable Case of Smallpox Discovered on Broadway Yesterday * ' SCARED EVERY DOCTOR' IN TOWN , Dllllcnlly Experienced In Finding Hoincono to Say What the DIs- enso IB Sent to The Pest IIollHC. A man was discovered by Officer Murphy yesterday tiftcrnoon near the corner of Broad way ntid Fourth street wandering around In an aimless sort of way , \vltn his face com- plotoly covered with hip rod blotches. It looked so much lllto a case of smallpox that the ofllccr decided to run him In nnd have the c.iso investigated. At the station the man cave his name as Ed Lnbin , Ho was Invited to sit down out side the door of the Jail , while City Marshal Tomploton tried to call up n physician. For the next quarter of an hour the telephone was In constant uso. Ono doctor had just gene to Omaha. Another hud gone out to visit a patient and would not ho In until day after tomorrow. A third dropped the telephone as soon as the marshal had made known his wants , muttering a half suppressed "Ol" under his breath. A fourth rccogni/od the sound of the marshal's volco through the 'phono , nnd seemed to know by intuition what wns wanted , for alter the llrst "hollo , " not a sound was heard. At last City Physician Jennings wns found , nnd ho made n journey to the police station to look at the patient , lie wns unable to dccldo the case positively , but he was very much of the opinion unit it was smallpox. He tried to put another physician to go with him and vlow the case , hut the news had snrcnd like wlldflro that thcio wns n smallpox ease In town , and not n doctor\vns to be found anywhere , until llnally ono was run down" } nil'1 the Joint decision of the doc tors was that the man mid genuine smallpox. Lnbin was taken to the post house , and the city building , which ho had been within ten feet of , was thoroughly fumigated. The man said ho had come In froii Neola In the morning across lots. He hnd intended to pet work nnd stuv hero , but people didn't seem to want to have much to do with him. The llrst time ho hnd hnd n man gicct him In a cordial way was when the oOiccr arrested of small-pox in the city caused quite a sensa tion , and these who had Interviewed the un fortunate man were greeted with eonsldera- bio coldness by their friends.

Yesterday afternoon there w.u a mooting held In the board of trade rooms for the pur pose of dlscuss'ng the advisability of con structing a building to bo used for conven tions , agrlcultur.il fairs and the like. An In vitation had been extended to the citizens In general to bo present nna tnka part in the deliberations "and quite n number were pres ent. ent.J. J. \Vooaruff , the designer of the Crcston blue grass palace , was on hand and slio , , 'Od the audicnca a number of designs which bo had prepared for a palace. The building , according to his plans , was to bo10 reel long , 1 ! > G wide mid O ) high. The price of it. ho thougat , would bo about $111,000. Some Informal discussion was engaged in as to a situ for thoj structure. Most of those present had given up the idea of having the building at the driving park us It would IM too far out of the way to uo made use of for any purposes but for the annual fair. A number of different locations were discussed , but to all appciranccs the most popular one was the lot on the corner of Broadway and Ninth streets , whloh is now occupied by the old Union Pacific dummy depot. "No decision was arrived at in regard to the site. At last a resolution was Introduced by E. L. Shtigurt providing that a palace bo built , a stock company organised with a capital stock of f 15,000 divided into shares of ? T > , and that n committee bo appointed to drum up subscriptions to the stock fund. The resolution was adopted unanimously , and u committee consisting of E. L. Shiipnrt , J. W. Peregoy , J. U. HIce , A. A. CuopuratidCJeorgo li. Wheeler was appointed to solicit.subscrip tions. In about fifteen minutes ? 2,000 worth of subscriptions to the fund was secured , with out any from the really wealthy citizens. It is regarded by the leaders In the enterprise as very certain that the pilaco will bo built and that it will bo a gmit success.

The coroner's Jury which was impannollod in the case of the late Mrs. Esther Whlto day before yesterday completed the Inquest yes terday afternoon at about 3 o'clock. The In vestigation did not in the jo.ist detract from the horror of the caso. On the contrary , every witness' testimony wasof such a nature as to make the brutality of William Whlto and his wife appear In a moro disgusting light. The first witness to bo put on the stand wns Mrs. Helen Siglcr. She wns culled to lay Mrs. Whlto out on the day of her death. She found the dhtlest place she had ever seen , and the body was In n horribly Illthy condition. It lay on n straw bed. which wns n nmss of tilth nnd vorinin , and the onlv bed clothes wcru n lot of old clothes which had evidently been worn by White. White told her at the tlmo that ho had been In his mother's room only once since she was taken sick. Whlto wauled the neighbors to dig n grave. Ho didn't ' care where. Ho didn't want It dug In n cemetery because ho ex- peeled to take the body back east utter awhile. Anywhere out on the pralrio would do for the present. lice James was the no\t witness. She said that thu old lady camoto her house ono tlmo to got something to cat. She said that her sen would not give her nnvthlng to cat. and she win afraid to go homo for ho would w hip hur when she got there. She had 11 cut on her arm and her legs woio covered with black and blue spots , which she said had been Inflicted by her daughter-in-law. Mrs. Frank Phillips testified that she saw old Mrs. White pass her sun out In the yard last February She was limping along on clutches , ami as she passed her son hogavo her a torrlflo blow In the back which sent her reeling and staggering against n tree. Her daughter then came out and rubue.l her lists In the old ladv's face , using nt the same time vulgaraml profane langungo. A number of other witnesses were examined , but Ihclr testimony did not bring out any now facts. It merely corroborated that of the witnesses whoso testimony has been given. The jury retired , and after being out a few minutes returned , bringing in a verdict worded ns lollows : Wo , tins Jurors , lind that Esther White came to her death tliioiiL'h thu criminal mvllKencc \\llllatn Whlto and wife , for unnt of pioper attention , care and medical attendance ; that she unsiillonud to remain In Illtli and corrup tion.Vo recommend that they bo dealt with according to law. To this document the Jurors , O. H. Lucas , U . II , Robinson , and C. Wesley , signed their names after which ono of them handed it to the coroner , with the remark that If ho knew of nny way in which it could bo worded so ns to show their condemnation of William Whlto nnd his wife In any stronger fashion , ho was at liberty to change it. County Attorney Organ is out of the city so that no action can bo taken In the matter Just at present. But as soon ns ho re turns nn information will bo made out , in accordnnco with the verdict and rccomt mondatlonof the grand Jury , and William Whlto and his wife will bo placed whore they can bo gotten at a moment's notice. Public sentiment has been wrought up to a high pitch by the disclosures of the past forty-eight hours , nnd It is highly probable that when the case comes to a trial Mr. and Mrs. Whlto will bo glvon something substan tial In the way of punishment. 30o ladies' ribbed silk and lisle vests f : r tonight and Monuny night Irom 0 p. m. , for 2oc each , Boston Store.

The conspirators spent only about $1,000 for postniro on the old papers which they sent over the railroads in such liberal ( | uantltlos , but the papers , when forwaidlng directions were carried out , would pass ever live railroads dur ing the weighing porlod nnd increase the charge upon the government for carryIng - Ing the malls to the tune of fi.OOO a year fern n poilod of four years , This meant u cool robbery of $100,01)0 ) from Uncle Sam.

Siou.v Cm , In1 , May 2J. ! [ Spsolul to Tin : Ucc. | A bitter fight has como to a liond ho- twecn the Sioux City puckers .and the Sioux City & Northern railroad on the one hand and the old railroad companies center ing hnro on the other hand. The llcht was apparently ever the divis ion of the packing house products among the railroads. The roads had begun boycotting this market nnd diverting live stock at all Junction points In its tributary territory , us well as arranging tlmo tables and train service against Sioux Cltv. The ofticers of the Chicago & Northwestern nnd of the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. 1'aul were arranging to withdraw the privilege of reshipping - shipping live stock out on a through rate. The trouble grow out of the fact that the owners of the Union stockvards an 1 of the packing houses are also the same men who own the Sioux CitV & Northern railroad , a llttlo line running north ! UO miles to a Junc tion with the Great Northern and crossing n little this side thereof , the Chicago , Hock Island & Pacific at Lester. la. The Sioux City men who built this line and opened It a ycnr ngo were anxious to boll Its bonds and to make a big shqwlng of business for that purpose. Last summer an arrangement was made with the Koclc Island which enabled the cutting of rates , so that the Sioux City & Northern road began to get the lion's share of mcr'chnndiso shipments in. But as the owners ' of the Sioux City At Northern owned nlso the packing houses they turned ever to it tlio , great bulk of the moat freight out. cutting down to litllo or nothing the proportions ofitho other companies hav ing lines to Sioux Ulty.u Hero is where the "kick" came m nnd It has been ono that involved Sioux City's rela tions with the railroads generally. It Is over the lines of the Chicago Ac Northwestern nnd the Chicago , Milwaukee < fc St. Paul that practically till the live stock reaches this market , the Sioux City & Northern bringing in very low cattle and hogs. The old com panies demanded a share of the packing house product proportional to the share of the live stock hauled In. How the division worked was shown by the ofllcial figures. The Chicago & Northwestern over its var ious lines brought In during Janiuuy 2'.H ) cars of stock and forwarded only 5'J cars of pro duct : during February it brought In 201 cars of stock and forwarded only " > cars of pro duct ; during March It brought lf- ! cars of stock and forwarded only -7 cars of product. 'Iho Milwaukee statement shows TOO can of stock brought In during January nnd only bl cars of product forwarded , and February nnd March made similar showings. But It Is Just the reverse with the Sioux City it Northern line , which in January brought In only 1 1 ! ) cars of stock , but forwarded lat cars of product ; In February it biought in 62 c.irs of stocit nnd forwarded 101 cars of product , and In March It bi ought in MU cars of stuck and took out 1411 cars of product. The old com panies month after month made thi'lr protests and demands In vain. At last n few days ago tho'r ' representatives presented their ultima tums. 'iho Chicago , Milwaukee At St. I 'mil gave notice that they would withdraw their worldlier force from the stock vunls. The old companies proposed to enter Into an ag gressive and vigorous fight against the St. Louis market , manipulating rates nnd using every weapon known to railroad warfare against It. Now the packers have ntrrcod to make anew now apportionment of the product of the houses out among the various lines , but on their part they demand that thuro bo a re adjustment of the local rates , In vlow of the decision of the interstate commerce commis sion on the rates of llvo stock and their jiacked product f' om Missouri liver polnt-s. The roads have not made the readjustment , but the puckers will glvo thorn some time.

Closing "Placesof Amusement. " CIIKSTO.V , la. , May 23. Municipal eovorn- ncnt has received another shock In Creston. Vt the lost March elections the question di viding voters , although not clearly stated ns 'prohibition or llconso , " was tacitly under load by all to bo "monthly flues to saloon- tcopors vs unrestricted liquor trafllc , " and ho "monthly lino" clement won. At that line and for years previous the Joints had ) con running unmolested In numbers , run- ilng nil the way from twelve to twenty sight , The council took no public action , mi the mayor Issued a license nt f X ) per mouth to saloon men to run "places of amusement" under n city ordinance , mid promptly closed all places lot so licensed. This not only cut tl.o num- jor of Joints down from about twenty-eight .o thiilccn , but It placed them under restric tions not heretofore observed. This action was taken by the nmor in deference to the wishes of business men nnd property owners , vho sent to his honor a petition of prodigious ungth , nnd the system had been working ad- nlratily until ycsterdaj when a number of tijunctlons swooped down on the Joints like i thunderbolt from n clear sky. The city was Just beginnlnr to llguro on maning public improvements from : ho rovoLUo received from the tr.illlo t has been nnnblo to control or prevent , when a now preacher came to town , nnd sent the thlrstv forth from the "places of unusement" to back alloys , bootlcggori , Irug stores and the express olllco. The nlnlster opened the bait by attacking the : Ity council from his pulpit and referring to ils honor , the mayor , as "our disreputable imyor. " This biought the mayor to his ofllciul foot , and in a letter published in the j undiiy Times ho stated that he would turu hat portion of his olllclal duties relating to ho regulation of joints over to the minister , f ho desired the job , and would promise lot to moloit him for n period of two years. The reply to the nayor's letter seems lo have been made In .ho shipo of thirteen Injunction notices .vhicli were served upon the owners of the 'places of amusement , " requiring them to appear ut the next term of the district court. I'ublic sentiment is strongly In favor ot the : ity receiving u revenue from the saloons , as .hey have never been closed slnco prohibition was supposed to have gene into effect , and all irevlous attempts to crowd them out have resulted in a local uproar and a perceptible iecline in outside trade. MT.tt.llXS n.\l > Itnil Kiirnlslied by'1 Mem L'Nirilly TuriiH Out Straw. NiYOIIK : , May23.When Judge Barllett of Buffalo admitted Antonio Nicollo , an Ital- an accused ot carrying a slllotto , to $1,000 bail last WCOK , District Attorney Kidgowny objected. Ho said Iho man would bring Hal- aus to go upon his bond nnd that Italian bail jonds were worthless. "We have never yet , " said ho , "bjor. able in our oilh-o to col- ect a bond given by an Italian. Wo general ly lind that an Italian will justify in any amount and dispose of his proocr.y tha next day. " District Attorney Kldtrow.iv h.is good rea son for his objection to Italian bandsmen. Ho said yesterday : "I can't , of course , say that Italians cousplro to got off their countrymen on false bonds and enable them to escape and leave us In the lurch , but It looks that way. I can only glvo you the facts and let you gain your own information. " The facts were hunted out at the recorder's WU1I.U UJ ,1. .1. ttUlLU , tlUliV III Ulllll U Ul HUE1 department of Mr. Hulgoway's olllco. "There are seven Instances on record during the las * Tour years , " said Mr. White , "in which Ilal- luns accused of ciimo , or of carrying con cealed tveapons have been released on bail bonds furnished by Ilnliaiis nnd have jumped Lhelrball. In none of these seven cases has the city been able to collect from the bonds men. In two cases tlio bondsmen died before Iho actions were pushed to llnal action. Ono of the three was Santi , who gave bonds of ? JO ( ) for P. J. Cornell , who Jumped his ball. When Snntl died wo discontinued action up on lindlng that it would cost moro to collect than to let the matter drop. The other was Louis Amelin , who offered property on Park avenue as se curity. Execution in this case was returned unsatisfied , but before wo could push the matter further the man died and wo discon tinued for the same reason as in the case of Santi. The other llva cases showed definitely that alien bonds are worthless in this coun try , Hero is the uise of William T. Blfll.who offered property ID security for $ lr > 0 ( ) ball. The accused disappeared , and when wo pro ceeded against Uifll wo found that ho did not own the property named in the bond. IIo had owned it ut the time , it appeared , but It had been transferred once or twice afterward. The purchasers of the property swore they had bought it In t'ocd faith , and ns wo could not prove that Billl had trans- furred it for purposes of fraud , wo had to let it go. Blfll appeared again a year later as a bondsman for n follow countryman , but wo refused to ace.'pt him. Then thcro was the ciso o ( M. Favcllo , who offered property on bonds of ? 'i)0 ( ) for nn Italian. After the defendants - fondants fled we lound that Favcllo , too , had transferred his property. Qultosimllar WTO the cases of Domlnlcobpmnllll , Prank Furoy and of Antonio Jura and Cregosyo Gale , jointly in each of these Uireo Inslancos the ball was to the city In iil.OOO. Wo do not BOO any way out o ( thU difficulty only to refuse aliens as bondsmen. So crowded are our dockets that ball eases must positively lie over , and sometimes men arc out on bail for six months or moro before being brought to trial , f ho bondsmen holds hU property two or three months and then transfers 'What can lie done I There Is no law compelling him to keep his property till wo try the case , and In this country it cannot bo hold as a lion against the property after the transfer. for we are not autnor od to register It as such. " .1 QVKST1UX OF i'l'llZKX Novel Point to Ho Decided in a New Y < i-k Court. Niw : YOIIIC , May ! * l.-ls Lilly Churchill , formerly Mrs , Louis C. Hammersly , and nt present duchess of Mailborough , residing In England , a subject of Great Britain , or docs she retain her rights as a citizen of the United States } This was the novel question pre sented to Surrogate Hansom for his adjudica tion yesterday.

Tno executors and their trustee ! are , bosldes herself , Jacob Lockimm and George ( ! . Willlann. Announcement was made to the surrogate yesterday that they had In their possoislim as executors $ lHlil,788 which t hey are prepared to mm over to themselves as the trustees. The strange question of the duchess' cltl/cnship , however , then aroao and caused Messrs. Lockman and Williams much uneasiness for fear they would oi.tor into an Illegal net. The surrogate maintained that the duchess was dlsiiuallllcd for duty as u trustee because she Is the wife of a foreigner living abroad nnd has uccomo a British subject. Hobcrt Sowcll appeared tor the duchess nnd declined that the point raised was a frivolous ono. Ho offered an uftldavlt deny ing that his client had become a British sub ject , and announced that he was prepared to argua the quosilon. Surrogate Himsoni put him oft , however , saying ho would llrst ox- amlno the pa pen presented by Mr. Dowltl ami decide whether or not th y had Hiifllclent merit to cull for opposing affidavits ami argu ments. If the surrogate should decide ihut thu duchess Is disiiuaiiflpd to net as n triibtco , which is Improbably her interest in the es tate of course would not bo effected. Wisconsin Soil .MoMoned.
