WASHINGTON- . C. , March a.
At the Treasury department today a voiy
nervous condition of affairs In tbo financial
circle * of the east was reported as a result of
the agitation In congress of free coinage.
Aotlnir Secretary of the Treasury Spauldlnp
told TUB Biic correspondent that while there
-was no real ground for this uneasiness It
was beginning to exist to nn extent which
made nfTiitrs very unsatisfactory nud pro-
soutcd a threatening outlook. Ho said the
country at largo and the general government
in particular was llko n bank , everything run
along smoothly till reports of con-
tomplatca questionable notions were
circulated , then there was a run on it ,
whether tnoro wns any re.il danger or not.
From Now York bankers the Treasury de
partment ofllclals hnvo received the Informa
tion tbat should a f reo coinage bill pass the
bouso gold will bo listed on the Now York
exchange for the ilrst tlmo alnco the resump
tion of spoclo payments. It Is oollovod nt
tbo Treasury department thnt gold will
actually bo listed It the house passes the free
colnauo bill , unless there U Immediate assur
ances that It cannot pass the senate , which
Is Improbable , and that the llstinir of Bold
will bo followed by nn mlvftnco In its pres
ent pur value to at least ouo-oiguth of n cent
premium.

As anticipated In n BKI : special last night ,
Senator ' 1'ottigrow todav reported , with fa
vorable lorommondallon from the committee
on Indian affairs , hU bill appropriating
$11,000 to pay the Yankton Sioux scouts
who served under General Sully in IbOt.
Senator Pettlgrow's report is very compre
hensive , nnd will probably occupy llfty
closely printed pages. It covers In u most
interesting way the entire services of the
Yankton falnux who bnvo served the federal
government in war times. In the report Is a
statement by the ohlof of the Yanktou Sioux ,
which says that tbo rod men
who served under General Sully
nnd helped to protect tbo white
citizens against the attacks of hostile Indians
did not en tor the service for a monetary con-
Btdnrulion , but because they bollovod it WHS
tight : that his hands antt these of his pooolo
have uovor been red with the blood of while
tnon : that they were always covered with
Iho blood of tholr own race.
Sotmtor Pottigrew makes the following
rtatomentfor thecommltteoin reporting his
bill. "Tho Yankton Sioux Indians reside
upon their reservation on the east side ot the
Missouri river in South Dakota and bavo
ooen the friends and allies in war of the
United States since 1851. In the spring of 18H (
General Sully enrolled llftj-one of these In-
illans as scouts and issued to them some puns
and condemned cloth I tie and promised thorn
additional compensation at some future time.
General Sully says no spool do sum wns
stated. The Indians say they wore to ro-
colvo ? 300 each , and that they were in the
florvlco ever nine months. In 1871 the War
< lopartmnnt paid those grouts $75 each. At
Jlrst the Indians refused to accept this sum ,
but were told that they had bettor take it. as
receiving that amount would not in any way
'prevent thorn from gottinc the remainder of
the $300 which they claim was duo. "
Homo Intori'KtB Npglectod.
It will require a great deal of pressure
upon Representative Bryan and the two
house committees having the subjects under
consideration to bring ubout favorable action
upon the bills increasing the appropriation
tor the now federal building and tbo ostab
llsbmont of a branch mint at Omaha. The
eonato passed tha building bill early in the
Bossion and sent It ever to the bouso where
Mr. Bryan booamo responsible for it , so
tboro might bo no cxcuso vt hatevor for a
failure of llnal action. Mr. Bryan appears
not to bo exercising himself ever oitlur of
these measures and U showing a disposition
to sacrifice these aud other measures of local
importance in the general Interest of the
democratic policy to refuse all appropria
tions for publio building : ) .
The same Is true of the bill passed by the
sonata some time ago malting appropriation
for tt military storehouse. If the voters of
Oman * especially and tha old first congres-
uonul district in gauoral , prefer tbat Mr.
lirynn's eflorts' should first bo directed to
theli' local measures inste.id of the interests
\ of the democratic party , tboy would do well
to Indicate that desire to Mr. Bryan without
delay and in language which will not bo
mistaken. Having aided In tbo defeat of tbo
republican control of the lower
bouso of congress and therefore
Defeated a policy which believed In
providing ample appropriations to carry for-
wurd wlso publto Improvements , It now rests
with these voters to divert tholr representa
tive of tbo majority in the bouso from his
present tendencies and direct blmin the way
bo should go. It is possible that us Douglas
county is no longer in Mr Bryan's district ,
bo may have lost interest in Omaha's affairs
nnd tha wishes of thu domtcrauy there , but
tboro nro many oinor moitsuros of great di
rect interest to the voters in Mr. Bryan's
new district which will full for the same roa-
ions nnd lu the Interest of tbo same general
political policy of donothlng.
Movement * of Troop * .
General Scboflold is busily engaged In con
sidering the annual movement of troops. As
BOOH ns possible the necessary orders will bo
issued in order tbat as much time ns may bo
shall bo given for the preparations for tbo
movements , which will probably tnko place
some timoin May. Those troops tbat bavo
been forsomo time on the frontier , especially
In the far south west , will bo given a turn m
tbo north nnd east , and their places will bo
filled by others who have boon enjoying Ufa
nt some of the more agrncabla stations. An
Interesting fact in connection with the move-
' wonts this year Is that General Scbo-
Ilold Is considering tbo advisability
of ordering ono of tbo Indian
troops to sorvlco nt Fort Myor. This sug
gestion was originally made by Mr. Proctor
when ho was secretary of war. It Is qulto
possible that the good people of Washington
will , before ion ? , become familiar with the
eight of n band of Indians , This dotall
will not interfere wltb the colored troops ro-
malnlng nt Fort Myor , as their time there
hai > not yet expired.

There Is ono man In Omaha who wishes
that ho had navor soon a Kecloy euro. Thnt
man Is Dr. C. L. Hnrt,1md If his wishes do
not run In this direction then the typewritten -
ton petition that * is burled araotm tbo court
fllos In Frank Moorcs' ofllco carries a largo

The doctor , according to his adldavlt ,
which has bccomo a part of the records In
the case , was not a rmtlout at the Blair euro
for drunks , but instead was a victim of mis
placed contldonco. Tbo tain Is like this :
Last January Dr. Hart conceived the Idea
that If he could mnko money easier than by
being called out of bed at midnight to an
swer professional calls , ho would do so. In
casting about ho chanced to moot Dr. Byron
F. Monroe , who represented that ho wns chief
nhyslclau , managing director and n heavy
stockholder in the Blair concern. Ho wnntod
to remove to the t'acltic slope , ixnd for that
and various ether roauons would relinquish
his pull on the Blair factory , if there wns
money enough in sight. Ho represented that
he was drawing a salary of $50 per week ,
hud an outsldo practice that was worth $ .200
per month , and xvas also tbo owner of twenty
shares In the Keoloy euro , which were o'f
the vnluo of $100 per share. All or this ho
would turn ever to Hart for the sum of
$4.000.
Hart was not prepared to pay that sum ot
ready cash , but after some tlmo a deal was
agreed upon by which Hart was to deed 160
acres of land worth $2,200 and cxecuto two
notes of JI.OOO each. This was agreeable all
arouud , and on January W Hart wont to
Blair lo take charge of his supposed gold
mine.
Than Monroe told him tbat before assum
ing authority ho bud batter stay in the insti
tution for three weeks and learn the tricks of
the trado. To all ot this Hart agreed , and at
the and ol that time when bo declared his in
tention of blossoming out as a full grown in
jector of bichlorido or gold ho wns politely
but positively informed that the Institute did
not know him. Ho was told that ho bad
bought nothine , ns Dr. Monroe was n man
who bad nothing to soil. Hart , concluded
that ho had been duped. For a tlmo ho
nursed this sorrow and said nothing , but
fearing that Mouroo might dispose or tbo
notes or sell the farm ho decided to net ,
benco the suit tbat has bean Iliad tn the
court.
Hart arors tbat when Monroe told him that
bo was intending to omicnito bo was simply
talking through Ins but , as ho has since re
moved Irom Blair to become the chief in
jector of bichloride In the Custlo euro in this
city.

boon swallowed up by the itopublloan. H
vas edited by O. H. Hothnclcer , slnco dead ,
nnd nad Charlie lliymond at the counter ,
Field whore ho could bo drawn 0:1 : at i\
moment's notice for anything from a poem
on "Thought'1 to an obituary of the Ahkoond
of Swnt , nnd Fre'l SuliT to aid and abet the
others , and Tom Dawson , now at Washing
ton ana as fat as the thin , pining voice of a
passe prlma donna , gave dignity to the
HIM , NVI : .
Mr. Field's room was entirely papered with
envelopes , each of which hung'on the wall by
its flap , Ilko a well merited rebuke on the
brow of bonutv when1 administered by my coworker -
worker In the dramatic Ueld , Colonel John L.
Sullivan. This waslO ne's scraubook. Ho
has slnco secured letters patent on It , but Is
kept busy llchtlng infringements. It consists
simply of a box of manllla envelope * , each of
which , when called into use , contains the
scrap with title on outside of envelope. Then
the owner , with n dexterous movement of the
dump tongue , prenarcs the tl p of the envel
ope and deftly stlcks-U'to the wall. When
Field required anv of those envelopes ho
would walk nroujid the room , reading tbu
titles until ho cimo to what ho wanted , and
If it happened to bo outof bU roach ho would
call Mr. Skiff , wno Is a very tall man. nnd
mounting on his shoulders would soon have
it down.
I was introduced to Field bv Colonel Will
iam Lightfoot Visschpr of Kentucky , who
wa ° thoii running a bright little paper called
Ileilo ! It was out off by tbu central omVo
about two weeks afterwards , and folding its
little tlroa hands over its pale , culm face , its
little scare head fell forward on Us form and
all was still save the muffled remarks of the
orintprs1 towel or the d3rlng echoes or the
hammer as Colonel Visscbor linlshod nailing
another political Ho.
Field welcomed mo heartily to Denver , and
taking bis foot out of n largo hole In the wall
which bo hud bored with his heel u fashion
ho has yet while engaged in thought-bo rose
to bis fool and catching aoprohonsively at
the wnistbnnd of his trousers ere it was too
late he put his Buspcudor back over his
shoulder again with a sigh of relief and
irraspod me heartily by the hand. While ut
work Mr. Field removes a great deal of his
clothing. Sometimes , when a poetess calls
on him suddenly while at work , bo only has
time to stick bis limbs Into the drawers of
his desk nnd run his head through n vile con
temporary , allowing it to droop down oyor
bis shoulders , before some great warbler
from the tall grass of ( ho literary Hold enters
the room.
Ho asked mo to bo seated polntlng to the
only chair in his ofllco , barring his own. I
began 10 vcmovo tbo exchanges , of which
there was a great number , but ho said :
"Never mind the ( Jus , that and the other
papers. Sit down on them. Everybody else
docs.1' So Isat down on them. I can re
member It yet. There was no scat to the
chair , and so I passud on rapidly till I struck
tlio lloor with much fooling. I never saw
any ono feel sadder than Field did ever that ,
for ho never could bear to give anyone nood-
Io3s pain.

FINISHING THE CITY HALL
Council Decides to Make the Rotunda Qor-
geous with Marble and Stucco.
WILL NOT DELAY THE WORK AT ALL
In I'lnin Such mOundUo no Hin
drance to tlio Kiirly Completion unit
Occnpnnuy of tlio Miignlllcont
rnblle HtilldhiK.
The rotunda in the now city hall will bo
finished In n more gorgeous style than was
contemplated when the contract for the con
struction of the building was tot to John F.
Coots ,
Pursuant to adjournment the council mot
yesterday afternoon nnd wont into the com-
mtttoo of the whole , with Mr. Bochel In the
chair , for ttio purpose of considering the
feasibility of expending the sum ot f 18,000
In changing the plans for the Interior con
struction of the rotunda of the city hall.
Architect Bolndorff was allowed to speak
upon the subject ot the changes. Ho stated
that under the old plans the rotunda was to
bo plain ana without any frills. The new
plans contemplated marble wainscoting upon
the walls of all of tbo tloora of the rotunda.
Aside from that there would bo n largo
amount ot stucco work and n number of
panels , producing n very beautiful effect.
Mr. Edwards of the commlttoo on tluanco
said that with the present outlook there was
enough money In the fund to complete the
hall nnd leave an unexpended balance of from
MO.OOO to ? 50,000.
The mom burs of the council looked at the
now plans nnd than President Davis stated
that ho thought that It would bo who to
change the plans. The building was a credit
to the city nud It should be finished to correspond
spend with thaoxtorlor.
Mr. Prlnco wanted to know how long the
change In the plans would delay the comple
tion nf the building.
Contractor Coots said there would bo no
delay. The rooms could bo used while the
work wo ? going on. The worlt In the ro
tunda could bo completed In nlnoty days.
Mr. Elsassor could 300 nothing wrong with
the plans of tbo old rotunda. Of course , ho
said , the rotunda would look bettor if lin
lshod according to the now plans , but It
would not look $18,009 bettor. Ho did not
think the taxpayers would bo in favor of ex
pending the amount.
When tbo proposition \vas disposed of Mr.
Elsassor was the only man who voted against
the chango.
The architect was Instructed to prepare
the now plans and the chairman of the com
mittee on public property nnd buildings was
Instructed lo invite bids for the work.
By a resolution Introduced by Mr. Elsassor
Contractor Squires was instructed to at once
begin the sweeping of tbo streets , as pro
vided for under his con tret wltn tbo city.
The clerk was Instructed to notify the con
tractors that the city ball was ready to re-
colvo the elevators , the vault fixtures and
the furniture for the ofllcoa on tbo fl t lloor
of the building.
The Courtland Beach Improvement com
pany presented a communication slating
that it would bridge Cut-Off lalto it the city
would appropriate $1,500 toward the enter
prise.
Mr. Steel introduced a resolution to ap-
propnato the amount.
Mr. Brunor stated tbat the land was in
Iowa and the onjcot was to boom real estate.
Tuxes were heavy enough nnd it was folly to
expend such an amount for such a purpose.
Mr. ChatTco spoke in favor of t bo resolution.
Ho thought it would result tm Omaha hay-
Inu a pleasure resort near at homo.
'
Mr.'btcel favored the resolution. If the
council would expend $1,500 the Improve
ment compunv would stand the balance ! of
expense of constructing 400 foot ol the
biidgo.
The resolution was adopted by a vote of
13 to 2.
Tno ordinance granting the New Omaha
Thomson-Houston Eloctrio Licht company
'
the right to my pipes and construct 'con
duits in the streets of Omaha was read
twice and referred. The ordinance pro
vides that the company may construct its
conduits in the streets and alloys for the
purpose of carrying wires und ether electrical
appliances. When pavements nro removed
they are to be replaced at the expense of the
company.
