THREE BRIDGE BUILDERS' EXPERIENCE Held Up nt Ilio tnil : of Iho Motor Conipnny'n llrlilco find UimRhly Handled , but K ; npo with Tliclr Mono ? Arrciti .Made. A bold attempt nt robbery was made about U o'clock yesterday morning on the east approach preach to the motor bridge. C. W. Martz , Martin Solon and Edward Quiglcy , three men employed on the now bridge and living at UT4S Avenue D , had been upending the evening In Omaha , and missing the car , Were walking back home. Just as they left the bridge and arrived nt the place where the motor track turns they were accosted by three negroes who demanded their money. The three travelers refused to give up their cash , and Qulgloy let his right hand fly In the direction of one of the highwaymen's face. The blow landed where It would do the most good , but Cjulglcy did no more acts of pugil ism , for two of the highwaymen came at him armed with knives and brass Knuckles. Ho received two blows from the brass knuckles , ono Just above the Hgl t eye and the other on the back of the head. The blows almost stunned him , but not so thoroughly that ho could not lift up his heels with considerable rapidity In stretching the distance between him and the highwaymen. Martz also had an encounter with tlio men , and yesterday ho hud an car that resembled a largo water pitcher , both in size and In shape. Solon was the only one who cnmo out of the fray uninjured , and that fact Is to bo attributed more to his superior sprinting qualities than to his travcry. Immediately after the affair took place the men came up town and telephoned to the po lice. The Omaha olllclals were also nutlllcd and In a very short time two colored men. who gave their names \Vindsor Coleman and John Heddyvero landed In the Omaho lall. They were brought to this side of the river cany In the morning. The ) deny hav ing been in the city at all Saturday night , but as they were ridlinr up in the patrol wagon ono of them was identi fied by a restaurant keeper on Nortli Main street as having been in his place Saturday evening. Thcro were three others with Coleman and Heddy who formed n party going to Omaha , witnln a very short tlmo after the attempt at robbery was mndo , but two of the three did not show up at all in 1 he robbery , and they have all disappeared. The three victims say that Hedily and Coleman are without doubt two of their assailants , for the moon was shining brightly when the affair took place , and they were able to recognize them. The men at the bridge had been p.tld off as usual Sat urday night and the three men had between them between 10 and $ T > U which the bandits would have secured if they had been able to secure anything. It is reported that Heady is the negro who was in trouble in Omaha a few months ago for burnimr up a drug store , the owner hav ing hired him to do the job in order to beat the insurance companies.

CHICAGO , 111. , MRyC3. / . [ Special to Tnc BEB.-Mayor ] f.llrby Of New York has said Chicago comes rtcnr being n nest of thieves. IItl 11 Is certainly iho mosl Inhospitable city In the world , " adds tlio Gotham mayor with stinging utnplinsls. Set that dew n ns n Now York opinion , launched forth from n mind tainted ! with something of envy. Don'l bo- Hove ll cnltrely baseless , for Ihere Isn slighl clement ! of truth in what Major Ollroy has said. : Chicago has some thieves nnd Chicago's hospitality to f.ur visitors , ex cepting drover Cleveland nnd Vcrn- < un , hasn't been noticeably oppressive. Hotels continue to charge all they can get , and at Jackson park there lire many eases of exorbitant assessment upon slghlsccrs. No body pretends lo deny that there hns boon much extortion. It cannot bo wholly checked. If strong ; efforts have been made to check It. Still It is not ns bad ns it wns during j ing the'early portion of ihts month. As I have asserted before , there is not the faint- hs suffer extortion. All ho needs to do Is to ox- erclso ordinary discrimination and ho may spend the whole summer at tlio fair without feeling that ho has been robbed. The Impression seems to have gene abroad that the reverse Is the condition here that a visitor canhot escape the clutches of the greedy bonlfaco and the swindling unices- slonalro. As a natural sequence the Chicago correspondents , many of whom and perhaps most of them , have endeavored to show tip iho state of affairs In the truthful light are local newspapers toward the foreign corre spondents is that they should not send a line of news to their journals which does not con tain exclusively words of praise for this wonderful exposition. The idea seems to bo that all the objectionable features incident to an enterprise so magnificent should bo totally suppressed. The truth about this is the local newspapers have from time to tlmo allowed the actual state of things to be shown up through their columns. They do not concede to outside newspapers the same privilege , but assail the correspondents who would assume this prerogative in an un merciful manner. Need of Double Sets of Iyri. If we must accept the statement from the sketchy pencil of Mural Ilalstcaa , in effect that you can't see what there is of the sights In six weeks , how long will it take to comi prClicnd the exposition's wonders when all is complete ! It is no easy question. The man who can go to , his town after spending the whole term here and say. "I have seen absolutely everything' ' at Chicago" will be worth preserving for exhibition at the next universal exposition. He will be a wonder indeed. When it Is cpntcmplated that it takes three days to.look through the state buildings that are complete and a third are unfinished you can imagine just how much there is to see. When'thcy are complete a week will not be time enough. Two hours in the Pennsylvania building tells you more history than a dcns volume. Its walls are covered with interesting records of the days before frecdcmi was conceived. So It is with the quaint old John Hancock house , where Massachusdttsexhibits the Mayflower and the George Waphipjton troubles. There is the desk his country's father used , and you can almost seeliinl sitting there. Such objects as thesfc 'artf'Hhere "in bewildering array. It is so on and''on. The state build ings form an unending source of interest. They present the vivid contrasts ; they tell the country's progress. There are the rojics of the Pilgrim pioneers , the products of the far western pioneers of more modern times. It is a limitless study. Thn foreign nations present more and more. It is surprising , however , that so few have their gov ernment buildings ready. Germany. Sweden , Great Britain , France and Japan have the only thoroughly furnished pavilions. The German building is most at tractive to the masses " with one exception India , and there is a""magnet there free tea. Ten that Draws Crowds. Anything free draws at Jackson park. Half a do/en Hindoos in native costume dis pense the steeped leaf and do a busincs al most as extensive as the turnstiles. Crowds swarm the beautiful Kant India pavilion daily. You can buy anything there from a fan to a little god and drink all the tea tbe low caste attendant can serve. It is a de licious beverage. A trip through the great buildings shows nearly all the work of installation to bo close to completion. Only throe or four pa vilions remain unopened in the Manufact ures hall. Almost everything has been placed In Horticulture and Transportation. Agriculture hall U the only main building giving evidence of delay in the installation of exhibits. Four weeks more will see the fair a finished wonder all but two things , Tney are the Ferris wheel and the Mackago spcctatorium. The monstrous revolving wheel will bo ready , perhaps , August 1. The huge spcctatorium cannot bo completed be fore the fal' is two-thirds gone. What a magnificent failure it is 1 Alplm'g .Smoker. Alpha camp No. 1 , Woodmen of the World , Is noted for its open hearted hospitality , a fact again exemplified at its "smoker" last Thursday oreiiing. About 100 strangers gathered with the members of the camp nt their bc.iutiful now hall and enjoyed a line musical program whllo smoking Alpha cigars and playing high live. The visitors were cordially welcomed by Sovereign Will S. Seism , who took occasion to toll them of bomo of the advantages of Woodcraft. Sov ereign Fred J , Sackett also made n hhort talk on the relation of the Woodmen of the World to Omaha. The musical program comprised songs by the Alpha quartet , a piano and clarionet duct , comic songs by Prof. Morris , and iluto duet by A. Plmlerand O. B.

It transpired that Alexander Hnsscll Webb , the United States consul , who four years ago embraced the religion of Mohammed , and who represents the Mohammedans In the United States has returned , to this countryjfor other reasons than those ho has already. Ills dignified presentation of tenets of his stated now religion hns attracted much attention. Many will now be sur prised , who have heard him say that his only mission hero Is the propaga tion jot that religion , to learn that ho Is also the agent of rich worshlpcrsi of i Mahomet. In an in terview today , Mr. Webb confirmed this statement , while regretting that It must become - come public before certain negotiations with land owners had been completed. Mr.-Webb states that a large numborof Mohammedans are planning to emigrate from India to the United States , and thai they will probably form colonies In several of thu southern states , For noino wceits Mr. Webb has .been In communication with largo property holders In the south , notably in Georgia and Florida. Ho has secured figures on largo strips of land and has already reported these prices to a syndicate of Mohammedans who are , from religious and financial motives , in terested In the movement , Mr. Webb has no doubt that the colonies will actuall ) bo established. During his life among the Mohammedans ho has found , he says , that they are extravagant admirers of the United States , and the majority would , he thinks , bo glad to become American citi zens. . The only reason immigration has been 7.c prevented Is because there Is no established colony here. The Idea of the wealthier and moio promi nent Mohammedans was , said Mr. Webb , to form in every lown and city of the United States circles to study the Moham medan religion. Tlio primary purpose is not , however , to secure converts , but to soften the prejudice of Christians in America against the great religion of the ICast. Al ready three of these circles have been estab lished , two in New York City and one in Wood bridge , N. J. , and it is believed that many more circles will bo shortly lu opera- lion. The kindly reception of the religion is the reason for hastening immigration , and the contemplated purchases of land is simply taking time by the forelock. Mr. Webb said today ; ' 'Americans will not find the Mohammedans to bo beggars nor charity seekers , but on the contrary , valuable workmen in many industries , Our plans 1 have gone so far as the preparation if plans for the laying out of towns and farms. "You may be sure that the Mohammedans will earn their own living in America They will depend principally upon the products of the t soil. Committees will be sent from In dia to inspect the lands here , and then the bargains 1 will bo closed , Another syndicate of Mohammedans is negotiating to run a line 1 of steamers between Bombay and Now York , and in this way the transportation of Mohammedans to the United States will be greatly f facilitated. "It is , of course , Impossible to say at this time 1 how many Mohammedans will come hero 1 at first , i believe that within live years } there will bo about 5,000 active , able- bodied I Mussulmans settled in the first colony. It 1 is difllcult at this time to fix a definite date for the arrival of the first colony , but 1 think I that will bo settled immediately after : the land Is purchased. The actual ex penditures ] .for lands for the llrst colony will bo about $100,000 , but , of course , there will be other largo sums for all kinds of ne cessaries of life.

The claim thai Mr. Ucuhnm dismissed the repub lican employes because of insubordination is sheer nonsense. In no event will il bo possi ble for the carriers nominated for appoint ment by Mr. Denhnm on May 1U , to outer the service In Terre Haute , save as they may subsequently pass our examination and com ply with our rules.
