HOW BANKRUPT VAVRA SOLO HIS STOCK He Wnn in IlnslncM nt tlnwnrdcti , lint Srnt JIi ( loodR to Hit Hrother III Council IlUtnj Tlic l > ntter Under Arrnt. J , J. Vnvra , n young man who started up n dry goods store at 142 Broadway about three months ago , Is In serious trouble on account of business transactions In which ho Is more or less Implicated wltn bis brother , A. S. Vnvra. n storekeeper at liawardcu , Woodbury - bury 6ounty , and which are charged with being crooked. According to the story told by E. D. Wigton , a Sioux City attorney , and Caotain Wicks of the Sioux City police , Vavra has occn stocking up his store with a lot of goods which did not cost him acut , but cost creditors of his brother several thousand dollars. A. S. Vavra , the Hawardcn merchant , broke Up hi'bustness three days ngo. floforo ho did so. however , ho sold out to his sister , n Mrs , King. Ho then proceeded to disap pear , and so effectually did ho do It that nil efforts to locate him have been unavailing. Ho was heavily Indebted to various Chicago and Omaha wholesalers , and when his cred itors learned that be had disposed of his property they began a lively rustle to sco what thuro was for them to hold besides the sack. Lett Only the Shell. At first sight the store seemed to bo well filled with meiehnndlso. The shelves were loaded with boxes atul tlio only thing that detracted from the general air of prosperity wAs the fact that the front doors were lockdd , They began to look through the , boxes and were amazed to Hud that most of them wcro empty. Just what the value of the stocK m the store Is has not been ascertained , but It Is much less than was supposed at the time the sale look place. For a couple of weeks prior to the sale It is sftid that. Vnvra was busily engaged every night In emptying his store by the , back door. Wagonload after watronlond of mcrchundlso wns taken out and shipped to his brother In this city and put on sale at this end of the lino. The charge against J. J. Vavra Is really that ho has boon engaged in a conspiracy to defraud , but the Information nn llle against him charges him with obtaining goods under false pretenses. The false pretenses were with reference to the amount of his prop erty. Ho is said to have obtained tS.OOO or $10,000 credit on Iho strength of sworn statements to the commercial agencies , in which ho greatly exaggerated his financial ability. Ills stock hero is estimated to bo worth about $2,500. A largo portion of It consists of merchandise that was shinpcd to him by his brother , nna It Is probable that replevin anils will bo instituted in the course of a day or two by the parties from whom It was purchased to recover it. Stories of the Trantnctlon. Vavra was asked yesterday utter he had been placed under arrest how ho happened to buy the goods of his brother instead of some wholesale establishment. Ho replied that his brother needed the money , nud ho bought the stock bo had on hand so ns to help him out. Ho claimed to have no idea that there was any doubt as to his brother's right to sell It. lie said ho paid his brother $1.500 for the merchandise , but did not pay by means of a draft or check. Instead , ha put the money In n letter , anywhere from $00 to $75 at a time , and sent It by mall. Ho also said that his brother owed him $ . " .0K ( ) , hut that did not prevent him paying his brother for all the goods he bought of him. A warrant is out for the arrest of the brother and ho will bo apprehended as soon as ho can bo located.

IJolcB , Mitchell ami < Tnckion to Kpank III the City This Week. This week Is an important one for the city of Council Bluffs in a political way from the fact that It Is to sco visits from three of the candidates for governor. Bennett Mitchell , the candidate on the prohibition ticket , made his debut nt the Broadway Methodist church last evening , but the notices given out in advance wcro to the effect that it would not bo a political speech , so there was no particular demonstration made by the the prohibs In his honor. The fact that it was Sunday night also hud something to do with keeping down their Inherent tendencies to have u torchlight parade. Today Governor Boles will limito his first appearance In the city sincu two years ago. A committee appointed by the local democracy - . racy will take him in charge from the time ho sots foot on Council Bluffs soil. He will bo taken first to the residence , of Dr. Macrao and after that to the School for the Deaf. In the evening ho will discuss political mat ters at the opera hnuso from the standpoint of n man who wants to occupy the guberna torial chair a third time contrary to his own wishes. W. II. M. Pusey will occupy the chair and Dalboy'n band will furnish the music. The climax of the week will bo Friday night , when Hon. Frank D. Jackson , tlio re- puullcancandl'Jato lor governor , wlllspenk at tlio opera house. Mr. Jackson is conceded to bo one of the finest speakers m the state of Iowa , and interest is ml ( led to his appuar- anco , by the fact that a good many people think ho Is to bo the next governor of the state.

Thera was a fire in whut is known as Danctotyn" Saturday aflernoon. The resi dence of August Peterson , on South Sixth street near tlio corner of'Twentyfourth venue , was set on fire by a spark from a cigarette fiend. There were two bouses ul door to Pelersou's and not ever six feet ayvay. U look all the efforts of the tire de- to V IU M t o dnclllogi , and they managed to do It In spite of the fact that there was no city water In that vicinity and iho only water they could get was from wells , The chemical engine delayed the progress of the batllo by exploding Just at the wrong time. Peterson's house was fully Insured. _ Domestic soap is the best. rnunvoi : The crop of pecans Is reported to bo of peed sire this year , but the largo dealers are not bragging much on the quality. England nnd Scotland report a heavy crop of potatoes , and shipments to this country are expected to commence ns soon ns cold weather sets In , A considerable proportion of the largo poach crop ol Maryland went Into cans , the pack at Baltimore Iho past soaoon being the larirest on record. Heports received by local bouses from Cleveland would indicate that choice apples are being taken very fast , nnd that In n wsck more It 111 bo no easy matter to pick up n car Just when wanted. W. H. McClellan writes from Lucerne , Colo. , that the potato market there took a G-cnnt drop. The growers , however , are not offering very freely since the drop. The digging Is about two-thirds done and the next ten days will see the work finished , Chestnuts have taken a great drop In the leading markets of the country during the past week or so. Parties who bought early have been unable to move them before the dropcamo. A house would sell n dealer , and before the nuts could bo shipped some other house would ouoto still lower prices. An Iowa shipper writes an Omaha com mission housi ) asking about tlio market on onions , nnd remarks In the way of a post script to his letter that he secured the name of the Omaha house from the roster of the National longuc of the commission men , sent to him by Phillips & Son of Now York City.

Li. Goodsnll , the much-talkcd-about fruit auctioneer of New York , has intro- duu'ed a novel feature In hife salesroom , which gives buyers a chance to see the con tents of a full barrel of graps without stop ping the sale. It consists of a lone ; table , divided into four compartments , with a trail door in each compartment , allowing the grapes to fall into barrels beneath the trap doors. Some idea of the rapidity of this mothou can bo grasped by the following : At a recent sale 28rtlots of grapes wcro sold in a trille less than two hours , that mentis HO lots per hour and over' two and a half lots each mi mi to. Prof. A. J. llider. secretary of tlio Ameri can Cranberry Growers association , sailed the first of the wcolc for Eng land , to bo gone about three months. Ho will make n strrng endeavor to interest the foreigners in cranberiies. and. If possible , increase their salo. Cranberries are not grown abroaa , nnd very few have been exported. He thinks that by interesting fruit dealers and offering liberal commissions a great market can bo secured on the other side of the ocean. His first move will bo to establish dally sales at auc tion in Liverpool and other distributing centers where cranberries nro now only oc casionally catalogued nnd sold. The crop of apples this season has been " light In nearly" all sections. The south is buying freely , there being a scarcity even in sections which usually produce a peed crop. In Now York they are predicting that , as the season advances , the market will proba bly improve and higher prices are likely to prevail. In many sections , where most of the fruit Is evaporated and dried , the crop was light , and consequently the proportion of fruit dried this year is very moderate , and for some time past the market for dried apples has been very firm , with values grad ually hardening. It is claimed that few ap ples are being placed In storage , most dealers preferring to sell the fruit as fast as received. In dried fruit there is more of a tendency to hold for higher prices.

VFhnt the Science of Sanltntlon Hut Accom plished. The probabilities of life have largely increased during the lastflve-und-twonty years. And this is so , says the New York Ledger , because science has advanced sanitation , and sanitation has defeated death. Of course nil must die , but none need do so through the neglect of plainly written laws. Cholera and cleanliness are deadly foes ; and , in fact , the latter habit sternly opposes every contagious disease. The unfortunate Muscovites who have made the plague-spot of 18U2 are the victims of habits of filthincss , which have brought upon guilty and in nocent alike a sad Nemesis. Turn to the west for the brighter side of the picture. The number of deaths from cholera in New York city for 1819 was 5,071 ; for 1854 , 2,50 ! ) ; for 1800 , 1,210 ; for 1802 , a few isolated cases not count ing a doxen. The death rate of our coun try is being surely lowered every year , but much remains to be done. Both herd and in England there are 250,000 , preventable deaths every year , nnd 7,000,000 of needless illnesses which an elementary knowledge of hygienic laws might have averted. Even the cholera alarm has proved the sanitary inspector of nature , forcing us to cleanse our streets nnd drains , purify our water supply , and lower our uoath rate. But human sacrifice is entirely un necessary. Have wo not yet learnt our lesson ? The simple principles of sani tation should bo and urn being taught , thanks to an enlightened ago , in our common schools. Hygienic laws must become the common property not only of medical exports and quarantine au thorities , but also of every parent , houbu holder nnd landlord. The public olllceru of the law must have tlio knowledge and authority to deal with any case de manding treatment. If these easy matters - tors are fcoon to , the disease , which has boon gradually brought low , can bo now and always completely btuuipcd out.
