A ( jo.
A large sl/cd family quarrel 1ms been
transferred to tlio court of Judge Scott ,
where John D. Thomas Is nrrayed against
his nephew , John I' . Thomas , of whom ho
claims $05,000.
John I ) . Thomas , the uncle , Is tin old man
who stands with one foot In the grave and
the other not far from the brink. In estimat
ing his wealth ho Is compelled to xiso flvo
figures In writing down the amount , though
howasnoUlways sorlch.for.somo forty years
ago ho caino to Omaha a poor man. During
the early years of his residence lit this city
ho worked hard and by practicing the closest
economy succeeded In Inylne- away some
money This ho invested in real estate ,
which rapidly increased In valtio ns the
years rolled along City lots were added to
Ills lists and many a farm eamo Into his
liossession until ten or twelve years ago ,
when reverses caino. Then there was a
prospect of all of the property being swept
away , as the creditors wcro numerous and
greedy.
How Ho Siuoil Ills Iliicun.
To save the accumulations , all of the
possessions \\ero deeded to the nephew ,
who then resided In St. I/iuIs. There was ti
consideration named In the instrument , but
In reality there was never n cent of money
passed between nephew and uncle. Finally
the old man concluded that his joung
nephew might do him dirt and In order that
tlicro might bo no advantage taken of the
condition of circumstances the old man de
manded a contract of some sort. Together
the two men found an attorney , who drew
up a contract to the olTect that tlio nephew
Bbould pay the undo $500 per month as serv
ices for looking after the property and payIng -
Ing the taxes. Time continued to roll along
until oncu ag'iln the old undo was on his
feet and ahead of the hounds Then the two
relatives got togi-thar again and the property
\\as deeded back to the uncle , though UOO
acres of Washington county land was given
to the nephew as a gift and as bis compen
sation for holding the other property out of
the reach of tlio creditors of the older
Thomas Kverytning was serene ; so much
so that in tlio settlement of alTairs the telltale -
tale contract was forgotten and was not
destroyed. That was In 1864.
Hound to < Jrt it ll.ick.
A few years later the two men had some
dlfllculty and the undo demanded the Wash
ington county land , declaring that It was bis
and that the deed did not count. This de
mand surprised young Thomas , though ho
did not say a word until suit was commenced
to set the transfer aside. This case was
tried last spring and the court held that the
transfer , though made as a gift , was for a
consideration and could not bo set aside.
The trial lasted for several days and was
attended with several sensational features ,
tin principal ono being a list light In the
corridor Just outside the court room. In
this engagement the undo canlo out second
best , being floored by his nephew. Then
there was an arrest and a hearing in the
police court , where the nephew was declared
the winner , as the case was dismissed , the
Judge holding that there was no assault by
tlio young man.
Angered by his continued failures , the
uncle at once brought suit in the district
court , alleging that under the terms of that
old contract the nephew owed him moro
than flir > ,000 for caring for the property
which ho deeded over ami again got back
into bis possession.

Dlllurentlnt on Packing Ultimo Products
Shipped to Ciillfurnln.
For n year or moro the South Omaha
packers have felt that they wcro not receiv
ing fair treatment at the hands of transcon
tinental railroads , and at evqry Important
meeting of the old Transcontinental associa
tion they wcro present with a prayer for re
lief against Chicago , the rate on packing
house product from the latter city to Paclllo
coast points being the stmo as from South
Omaha. Hut Invariably the local packers
\vero beaten by Chicago packers and the
rate remained the same.
When the disruption of the Transconti
nental association occurred a new light
dawned forSoath Omaha and the packers In
the Magic City succeeded In Interesting the
freight men of the Great Northern , Notth-
crn Pacific and Union I'adlU1. at their meet
ing held In St. i'aul , whore a new tariff was
adopted , making a difference of lOcunts per
100 on packing house products In favor of
South Omaha nnd against Chicago to Port-
laiui and the Sound country.
Having accomplished this much the pack
ers did not rest on their oars but determined
to seeuro the sanio rate to San Francisco if
possible and a telegram from ono of the
general freight agents attending the meet-
of the California lines received yesterday
announces that the tarllT promulgated by
thoGre.it Northern , Northern 1'aclllc and
Union I'acillo has been adopted by tlio
California lines.
Freight Trafllle Manager Munroo of
the Union Pacific nnd General Freight
Agent Crosby of the Uurllngton have labored
earnestly to sccuib this concession to South
Omaha packers Time was when Mr. Ar
mour controlled all the California business
so far ns packing house products were con
cerned , but lately ho has abandoned his ef
forts to secure trade on the Pacillc coast , and
this may account for the ability of the South
Omaha packers to secure the present rate.
Hut the triumph is none the less accept
able , and South Omaha packers have to con
gratulate their representatives in the meet
ing for securing this very decided conces
sion. The now taiiff also includes other re
ductions , but the South Omaha packers arc
more generally affected than any other class
of shippers.

tion of some of the minor deta'ls , have been

undertaking mot at Schroedcr's hall ,
Twenty-fourth and Cuming streets , where

thirty brawny young men will leave this city
in a go-as-you-plcaso race , the destination

antee that ho will walk until ho tires. As
an Inducement for them to keep upon their

Captain O. K. Hunt , forecaster of the

his trip. Speaking today of the additional

fully understood the situation woould soon

this because I know Mr. Harrington to bo a
broad minded and perfectly fair man. Well ,
I have now the proofs of my prediction , jor ,
after explaining to him the great need of

"L'Abslntheur" will bo presented twice ,
and for the last time this season , at tne Hoyd
today , n special matinco at 2:80 : being given
in addition to the reeular evening per
formance. For the nmtinco BO cents will secure -
cure any scat In the theater.
Tonight a most noteworthy event of the
theatrical season occurs at the Farnain
Street theater , when Air. Charles Hanford
begins a three nights engagement , present
ing the Booth and Uarrctt scenic production
of Shakespeare's "Julius Ciusar. " Air. Han-
ford was for four years the leadlnc supiwt
for Messrs. Ilootli and Barrett during their
continental tour , and those who saw him as
Alark Antony have a pleasurable recollection
af his performance Ills support is excellent ,
Including Air K. li. Spencer , for several years
with Julia Alarlowo , and Dennett Alatlack ,
who made an enviable reputation supporting
Thomas W. Keeno. The scenery used will
bo the original Booth-Darrctt scenerywhich
was purchased by Air. Hanford upon the
death of Lawrence Darrett. Alanager tHir-
? ess has shown much commendable enter
prise In booking Air. Hanford , and if ho may
not command financial success he certainly
deserves It. The regular popular prices of
the house will not bo advanced.
That clover comedian , Mr. E , II. Sothern ,
makes his first visit to the Now Hoyd tomor
row evening , continuing till the end of the
\\cek. Bare announcement of the fact is
sufficient to insure a land ofllco business at
the box ofllco , where the sale of seats Is now
on. "Captain Lctt-irblair , " the new comedy
which has taken the east by storm , will bo
presented for the first time to Omaha thea
ter goers , the cast and scenery being the
same as seen in New York. Sothern has
said the title role of this comedy , the char
acter of an Irish olllccr , debt-burdened care
less and big-hearted , suits him bettor than
my ho has ever assumed. There . ro few
things histrionic so entirely dcligturnl as
Sothern's acting In what may now be most
aptly styled Sothern comedy.
Next week's attraction at the Boyd will bo
"Tho Old Homestead , " while at the Farnam
will bo seen "The Danger Signal. "
'Tho Fugitive , " the new drama at the
liijou , is drawing good bouses. Air. Barlow
does some excellent work as Jack Loaritt ,
the fugitive , but the heavy part falls on the
shoulders of Air. George Wessolls , in the
character of Jasper Haleigh , which ho ad
mirably portrays. Miss Elting is also seen
to good advantage as Hester Alalvon , and
the balance of the company are all equal to
their respective roles. 1'ho specialty pro-
grain is particularly good. Every lady vis
itor this week is receiving two silver metal
teaspoons us u souvenir.

Sits Ho Kns No Ifiirrant for tlio ArrcHt of
JintikVrcckor Moshcr.
In response to an inquiry yesterday
United States Mnrsn.il Slaughter had n
wora of explanation to offer upon the status
of the Moshcr Indictments. He said that
Air. Alosher was arrested upon the first In
dictment found by the grand Jury , and while
ho was in the custody of the marshal the
Jury found a second indictment.
"Thero would bo no soosojn our arresting
him a second time when wo already had him.
How could we arrest a man who was in our
custody ? The | ury might have brought in a
dozen indictments against him , but so long
as ho was iu the custody of the court there
would have boon no sense In attempting to
arrest him again. The court bad possession
of this second indictment when Aloshor was
admitted to ball , and when bail was ac
cepted that made him a free man under bond
until the time of trial should arrive. Alosher
wanted to rush right off to stall's prison , but
fearing that there might bo danger of shut
ting out some valuable evidence by too much
haste in the matter the Judge decided to
postpone the hearing of the casa until the
Alay term of court. As to this mat
ter of tlio flrsi indictment not being
strong enough to hold Alosher , I
will say that the second indictment is
in the hands of tho'court and incase the first
indictment did not stick the clutches of the
government could easily bo laid on Air.
Moslicr by means of the second indictment
before ho got out of the court room. But I
think there is still another way. I bellevo
the district attorney will have the power ,
if ho so desires , to bring the evidence in
the second indictment Into the trial as well
ns that contained In Che first. "
Air. Slaughter then called in Air. Lyon , his
assistant , and asked him if the capias In the
second Indictment had ever been brought to
the marshal's ofllco. Air. Lyon said ho had
never seen it. The capias must , therefore ,
bo in the possession of the clerk of the
court.
Speaking of tire probable basis of prosecu
tion In the case , Air. Baker said yesterday
that if ho should still be In ofllco at the time
the Alosher case is called up in United
States court bo would combine the two in
dictments before entering upon the prosecu
tion of the caso.
