Stories They Tell.
WASHINGTON" , D. C. , JunoU. In the census
investigation J. H. Wardwcll testified this
morning tbat ho had formerly boon an en
gineer in the census bureau. While there
bo bad , by order of Chief Engineer Cully ,
destroyed hundreds of thousands of oQIclal
envelopes alrcaay addressed. Ho had also
burned 500 or GOO feet of lumber for which
tbo bureau had paid iroin $5.50 to W a
hundred. Superintendent Porter had ap
pointed to .places persons who were gen
erally known about the city as bad char
acters.
Miss Clara D. Boswoll , a former employe
In the census bureau , tea tilled that she had
been employed In punching tbo enumeration
JI1D5. The employes wore told that speed
vas needed , and not accuracy ; and they
\vero driven llko auluials , many of tTJera
fainting under the stress. The work was
consequently inaccurate , clerks being forced
to make large records did not s'.op to correct
tbo errors. Because of the character of the
work , they did not underlain it , so it was
placed on women , Tbcro was favoritism
shown toward certain femaln clerks , and
they were always the young and nretty em
ployes.

WASHINGTON , D. C. , Juno 3. The census
bureau today issued a bulletin on the subject
ot assessed valuation of propnrty in the
United States In 16VO. The bulletin .shows
that the assessed value of all property , ex
cluding railroad property , except In certain
spocllled states , has Increased from f 10,902-
093,643 in 1SSO to $24,051.585-103 in ISO ) , an In
crease during the decade of $7,748,501,022 , or
45.84 per cent. Sheuld it bo found upon the
completion ot the Inquiry In relation to the
true value of property that the same
relations exist as existed in 1SSO thn absolute
wealth ot iho United States , according to tbo1
clovcntd consuswinay bo estimated at $0.1-
0-18,000,000 , or moro than $1,000 pir capita , as
against $ .114 per capita in 1800 , S7SU per
capita In 1871) und * S70 per capita in ItiSO.
Owing , however , to tbo fact tbat in some
states properly Is assessed at its full value
and in others at only a fraction of its value ,
comparisons of the wealth of the states are
qulto impossible. In some states the lists of
the kinds of taxable property vnrv greatly
from these In others.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , Juno 3. In the house

nottl of California , a bill was passed granting

Special to TUB BUB. ] President Carnot's
Jouruoy to .Sanoy continues to bo Iho subject
of numerous discussions , and Ibo fact that
Ibo review has .been countermanded Is caus-
luij'dls ontent in various quarter * . Several
Journals today published violent articles
wjmluat the president nnd the government ,
udin thoCbamburof .Deputies M. Derouledo
asli d the president ot the council what truth
there wiu lu thu ourroal rumor t' ' at the pro
gram relative to the f-ulval nt Nancy had
boon considerably tnodlllod. The govern
ment , ho claimed , should answer this ques
tion fullv in order that the widespread ap
prehensions regarding the national Independ
ence ot the country might bo calmed. M.
Loubct replied tbat the Nancy program had
been altered by the government , \vhich had
acted" In the matter entirely of Its own frco
will and had not boon Influenced In any way
by the motives alluded to in the press.
Thcra is no doubt , that M. Lcroulcdo and
M. Loubct expressed themselves on this
matter with thu best intention in the world ,
but at the same tjmo it is clear that in a
great country llko Franco a discussion ot
this kind should never have occurred. If
President Carnot's voyage Is inevitable it
ought not to bo made an object for debate
and every ono should hold bis tongue
about it.
The olrction nt the French academy today
resulted in favor of M. Lavlsso , the historian ,
whoso special distinction is his thorough
knowlcdgoof all questions relating to Ger
man hlMory. Ho Is tbo author ot a Ufa of
Frederick the Great nod is considered by the
Germans themselves as a remarkable writer.
Ho Is also the president of n students' asso
ciation und is notable for his patriotism nnd
popularity. M. Zola attained only ton votes ,
but Is novotbclcss confident that ho will bo
elected within the next two years.

work to be dona in preparing tbo Nebraska

The auxiliary board numbers fifteen mem
bers , all of whom \vero appointed by Com
missioner General Garuoau. and their terms
expire March 1 , 1S93. The members nro as
follows : Mesdames C. H. Van Wyek ,
Wyomlnp ; M. A. Bock , Omaha ; A. Patter

All of the ladles \vero In attcndanca yester
day with the exception of Kra. Junu. iioyle ,
who was prevented by lllacss from being
present.
Mrs. J. S. Brlggs , the Nebraska member
of the National Board of Lady Managers of
tbo exposition , was mimed by the commis
sioner general as president of the auxiliary
board and occupied tbo chair at yesterday's
mooting.
How the Hoard li to Uo Ruled.
Commissioner General Uarneau , and Presi
dent C. A. Coo und Commissioner M. H.
Weiss of tbo Nebraska commission wore In
attondancu , ana all briefly addroasud the
board before ISO organization was com
pleted.
The commissioner general stated the pur
poses for xvblch the board was created , and
submitted a sot of rules and regulations for
the government of its actions.
The rules leave llttlo real power In the
hands of the ladles , making ttio board the
creature of tbo commissioner general and
wholly subservient to bis deciers ; In fact
the board's hands are tightly tied It that
ofllclal so wills.
Mr. Uurneau stated that bo know that the
rules were arbitrary , but that ho did not pro
pose to bo arbitrary In their enforcement.
They were so prepared In order that tbo
commission might bo able to 'protect Itself ,
as it was bold to a very strict accountability
under tbo law.
Tbo rules provide that every act of the
board shall be subject to the approval of the
commissioner general ; that ha shall appoint
the president and executive committee ; that
ho may summarily romovu uny rrombor of
the board , or may increase or diminish tbo
number of members of the board at any tlmo
as he may sea lit : that Uo shall nass upon tbo
appointment of ail subcommittees and may
approve or reject as ho may elect. The
president , secretary and chairman of iho ox-
cuutivo commltteo will each receive $3 per
day and hotel bills , and other members $3
par cay and hotel bills for such time as they
may bo actually engaged in attending meet
ings of tbo board.
The bills will bo passed upon by the executive -
ocutivo committee , must be approved by the
commissioner general * nnd will thn bo al
lowed by the commission. The ofllclal with
the long name has tbo power to ullow addi
tional expenses to iho mem Dors if ho deems
it expedient or proper so to do.
Miss Jrwln Elected Secretary.
Mr. Uarneau stated that the secretary was
the only elective ofllcor , and that the presi
dent and secretary would bo oxofliclo mem
bers of the executive commltteo. Ho ap
pointed us chairman of that commltteo Mrs.
C. H. Van \Vyek. The other two members
will bo named later.
He further stated that all records must bo
kept in Omaha that they might bo readily
accessible , though tbo secretary need not
necessarily bo a resident of this city.
It was explained that the time intervening
between now and the close of the fair bad
been divided Into two periods , tbo 11 rat to
end March 1 , IS'.O. Tbo legislature had ap
propriated but $50,000 , and It bad Leon found
that this was Insufficient , it hau therefore
boon determined to go ahead and use this
money .to the best advantage in getting
everything possible dpne up to March 1
They would then eo before the next legis
lature and make their showing of what had
been accomplished and demand an additional
appreciation.
If it was allowed , the work would bo con
tinued to a creditable termination ; It not ,
the eternal disgrace resulting from an un
worthy exhibit would bo upon tbo heads of
the legislature and not upon the commission.
Of the foO.OOO appropriated , $1,500 has l)3en
set aside for the work Of preparing the
women's exhibit , and an additional 63,500 Is
to follow , a total of $3,000 for that purpose.
The election of a secretary was declared
In order , ana thuro were two nominations
Miss Elizabeth W. Irwln of Lincoln and Mrs.
Molllo Allen Bock of Omaha. The ballot re
sulted In a tic , each receiving six votes. Tbo
president cast the deciding vote in favor ol
Miss Irwln , to tbo unbounded astonishment
of Mrs. Bock's supporter ; , and the Lincoln
aspirant was declared elected.
Addre-m of the Protldent.
The president read her Inaugural address
and advised thatono or more of the mem
bers be aent out through the Btato to do some
electioneering and publlo speaking
in behalf of the movement. The
idea mot with some favor , but several
of the more conservative members thought it
unwUu to spend $3,000 in thrco minutes ,
wbilo the funds were so limited , and for the
present each member will do private mis
sionary work In the district that property belongs -
, longs to her.
It was decided to send out a circular letter
to the ladlc&all over the state , and tbo chair
appointed the following committee to attend
to the matter : Mesdames Langwortby ,
Stewart , Bock and Miss Worthara.
Tuo following commltteo will prepare by
laws : Mosdiiwoj Vau Wyek , McDonald ,
Lynch and Smith.
Mrs , Kussoll Harrison , ono of the elchi
mombonatlarge of tbo national board ol
lady managers and ono of the vlco presidents
of that body , was present and was called
upon for suggestions. She suited that she
had boon in Nubruiika so llttlo of late thai
she wai not BulllcletiUy well acquainted with
the subject as pertaining to this stulo to
speak upon it , but that she would bo glad to
receive some Information retarding It before
her departure for Montana , whither she
would go In u few days.
No further business was transacto.1 , one
the balance of too afternoon was devoted to
getting acquainted ana to an Informal Inter
change of ideas.
Another session will bo held this mornln
when tbo commissioner general will uuvi
further suggestions to offer.
It Is hardly probable that tbo ontlro board
will meet very frequently , as iho members
will do tbo greater part of their work ai dls
tnct superintendents and the work will bo
directed and the cenorul business transactoi
to a very considerable extent by the oxecu
live committee. _

counted on to give straight insldo Informa
tion of tbo siiuatiofi'and'thS present environ

The prevailing sontimoat is all in favor of
President Harrison. His advocates offer
unopposed arguments in favor of his nomin
ation. The men who are pushing another
candidate , whether it bo Blaluo or McIClnloy ,
Hoed or Russell , are lying low and telling
inquirers that they will sea them later.
There is as yet no evidence hero of a con
centration of forces sufUcient to boat tbo
president on the fim two ballots. Wo are
assured that tbo union will bo made , but can
not yet sen the evidences. It H fair to say
that the friends of the president profess
the greatest confidence in his nomination.
They profess to bcllova that
Mr. Blalno's name will not bo
presented to the convention and express
assurauco that should such a contingency
arise by anticipation the plumed knight will
not permit himself to bo made a stalking
borsofor tbo discontented and disappointed
opponents of the administration.
Certain of Harrison's Nomination. '
John C. New tells mo this evening that ho
is certain of Harrison's nomination on tno
first ballot ; so does General Michoner of In
diana. Cbauncoy Dcpaw insists that tbo
president cannot bo defeated in his Judgment
by any possible combination tbat can bo

tor , ono of the shrewdest of politicians , as
well as the most cfllclont ofllclals , hoots at
the possibility of Harrison's defeat. Sena

Platt , the disappointed aspirant for the
secretaryship of the treasury , which Windom
got , end which Foster holds , says the samo.
The Harrison forces were first on the
ground and are hero now in greater force
than the combination of the discontented and
are certainly confident. They give as
grounds of their belief a canvass of dele-

whatever name can gather the most strength
and accomplish the object. 'Ibo situation as
it outlines ttsoU tonight is tbo field against
Harrison , with several of the best machine

Illnino lloomcrx Trj IIIR to Cnuio n Stnm-
( icdo of lintructcil DvlcRiitlous.
MixKAroU9 , Minn. . Juno 3. The presi
dential contest Is L'rowlng more Interesting
lourly. Men are becoming unduly cxcitod ;
'actions are beginning to ( say rash things ;
iionpartlsans are beginning to fear results In
the campaign whichever wins.
Whether by or against his will Blalno's
friends bavo forced him Into the position of
a passive candidate , and the Harrison pco-
plo , not unnaturally , are gay ing many caustic
.hlngs about the secretary's position , Insist-
ng- that good faith will compel Blalno to
wrlto another letter of declination. If this
letter Is not forthcoming m two or three
days it Is Impossible to predict what the con
vention will do.
The Intensity of the situation may bo un
derstood when it Is stated that representa
tives bf the Associated Press are questioned
every hour by anxious party leaders as to
whether any declaration has boon made or Is
expected at Washington from Mr. Blaino.
The position of tbo South Dakota delegates
is being discussed with much Interest. It
was given out that Instructions for
Harrison did not Instruct but merely
endorsed. Governor Mollotte. a Harrison
man , declares tbcro was no question about
the purpose of the convention. Itasolutlons
were brought in by the cammiltoo mcroly
endorsing Harrison. The convention sent
the committco back with orders to frame the
resolution so as to endorse Harrison for a
second term and to Instruct the dele
gates to use all their Influence to
secure his nomination. Whether tbo
dclogatos will obey these instructions ,
Governor Mcllotto says , remains to bo scon ,
though ho believes all except two will.
The Blaine leaders are working hard to
bring about this broaic to him from Harrlsqn
Instructions in the boon that it would bo ac
cepted as a precedent by other In
structed delegations with n result of
further breaus to the man from
Maine. Wherever possible this will bo
helped along by the argument that the Harrison
risen Instructions were only given on the
supposition that Blaine was not to bo a can
didate and that the strong Blaine sentiment
in tbalr stato"will now. juitify thorn In Iirnor-
intr tbo Instructions given under a misap
prehension.
Second Term Not Unpopular.
J. 1C Gowdy , chairman of tbo Indiana
state central commltteo , has given out a
long statement refuting the assertion tbat a
second term for president Is unpopular In
this country. "Besides Washlngtod , " says
Gowdy , ' " .hero have boon ten cases In which
a president ha * been nominated for
a second term , in six bo ban boon re-elected
each tlmo bv a lurccr electoral and popular
vote than In his lirst raco. "
In the four cases bo has been defeated
Gowdy shows that special reasons aside from
second term brought about tbo result.
Among tbo conspicuous figures at the Harrison
risen headquarters tbU mornliip were :
Powell Clayton of Arkansas , II. C. ICorns of
Missouri , W. O. Bradley -Kentucky , H.
Clay Evans of Tennessee and ex-Governor
Warmotb of Louisiana.

IIurrUou'A I'rlomU Hopeful.
But in tbo midst of nil this enthusiasm for
tbo man from Mulno , it must not bo inferred
that tbo Harrison men are dismayed. Kar
from U. Tboy are fully as confident today
as they were yesterday and this conlltlauco
seems justified by the fact , that , despite the
extravagant claims of the opposition party
leaders , two-thirds of too delegates who huvo
tb'uu far arrived In the city are outspoken for
the president's ronoroination. It may bo that
nil this U but the result of chance , or tbat
Harrison delegates are bomg summoned to
the scene to offnot the Blaine demonstration.
But , however this may be , tbo strength of
tno president among the very men who are to
make the nomination next week Is tlio
source of much satisfaction to tbo Harrison
people , and does not afford much grail-
tication to their opponents.

Tbo afternoon trains brought in another

and a Harrison man now.
Honor-ill Lew AVnllncu'i Opinion.
The author of Ben Hur , tbo chivalrous
Low Wallace , and himself a delegate , said :
"Harrison will be nominated on the first
jollot. Blalno's name will not bo mentioned ,
bcforo the convention. A count of the dclo
gates will show this to any sensible man.
jlalno's loiter was an ofllclnl document , scut
to the chairman of the nnllqnal commltteo
ind meant just what it said. Ills boom
s an effort to stumpedo tbo Harrison ,
delegates. This , I am satisfied , will
x > ona of the strong cards In the
lands of the anils , but it won't succeed. The
tlnrrlson men know about that scheme and
are prepared for it. An effort may also oa
made to pack the galleries and do vote them ,
to Blaine criers , but this also will fall of Its
purpose. As for the opposition to Harrison ,
allow mo to say If you go to tbo bottom on
every case you will flndin personal grievance ,
. 'art the hair ot each of these malcontents la
the middle and youwlU see a BOTO spot. "
Opinions vary in nearly all of the unin-
structcd delegations , although , perhaps , not
so much anywboro else as with the Minnesota
seta delegates. Gcorgo Thompson of St.
Paul , a delegate , believes that Blaine has
nine of tbo delegation , Harrison ihrco nud
two are anti-Harrison , while tbo other four
are doubtful. William Henry Euslls , a Min
neapolis delegate , and an original Blalna
TIan , believes the delegation has sixteen
Blaine mon nnd two for Harrison , these
alter being uulnstructcd from the First
district.
Went Virginia Tor Harrl.ion.
C. B. Hart of Wheeling nnd John D.
Hewitt of Brnmwoll elrgntos-at-largo from
West Virginia , were among tha afternoon
arrivals. Mr. Hart said -111111 West Virginia
was originally for Blaine , was solid for him
in 1884 , would have voted for him in IbSS 1C
bo had run , and liked him very much.
"BmV ho' continued , "wo coiuideroa his
letter final. Blaine declined. His letter
needed no interpretation , und it Is now too
late for him to do nnvtning. If Blaluo'a
nnmo Is presented , I believe tbo delegation
will vote for Harrison. I Intend to ao 10
mvseif. "
"And so do I , " said Mr. Hewitt , who
stood by.
Mr. Hart continued : "Wo have been well
treated In West Virginia by the president ,
but that Is not tha controlling motive. I
don't regard Iho Blalnu movement as honest.
It Is marshaled by his old enemies , and I
don't believe ho would take his enemies Into
his contldenco now. "
Mr. Hart thought that others of the dele
gation would probably bo of tbo same opin
ion , They were for Blaine , but are for
Harrison ,
Louisiana lu the Harrison Itiutlm.
Ex-Governor Warraoth of Louisiana sold :
"As a federal oftlceholdor I fool a llttlo dif
fident about expressing myself , butlf I might )
dnio to speak 1 would say tbat Louisiana Is
for Harrison , and tbat tbo total vote of tbq
state will bo cast for him tbla fall. O
course , you know that we have a contesting
delegation. Thu suite committee split over
tin lottery question , and the anti-lottery
people , with whom I am ufllllnlcd , nominated
u ticket which I am sure will bo seated.
Both delegations nro Instructed for Harri
son. Wo are going to carry Louisiana tnls

somebody wo want. Tbo sugar , nco and ,

Hon. John K. Lynch , the colored leader o (
Mississippi , was temporary chairman ot
tbo contention that nominated Blalnq , but
bo is not for tbo plumed knight this tlmo.
Ho has been a member of congress from tha
"Shoestring" district of bis stnto and Is now
an appointee of tbo Harrison administration ,
as fourth auditor ot the treasury.

"It Is an unfortunate thing , " bo salt ] ,
"that tbo dologatbs to tbtsIconvonUon should ,
bo called upon to decide between Blaine and.
Harrison. But as the condition exists , I
think that representative friends of both
should at once have a conference. Lot that
conference determine which shall bo tha
nominee and secure acquiescence ) from both
sides , Something of the kind must bo dona
bcforo the convention proceeds to ballot. I
have always been n Bluino man , llko every
ether good republican , but this year 1 fool it
my duty to support Harrison , "
A rather decided opinion was that of Senator -
tor Hansbrough of North Dakota. Said he :
" 1 bollovo It is now a foregone conclusion
tbat Blaine will accept the nomination.
Harrison has given ma ovortblng I asked for
unu i um not in inu position qi u disappointed

rUou because ho was from a doubtful stnto.
Wo wanted the state , not the man. If from
