All the newspapers of ( his city eulogize Emperor William's action in ordering the release of Lieutenants Da- cony and Malcvas , Ihc two French officers who were convicted of spying upon the for tifications of Kiel. The socialist organs urge the French government to Imitate the clemency of the German emperor and grant amnesty to Its own political prisoners. The outburst toward Germany may pave the way for much belter feeling. Germany , slnco her spat with England over the Congo trcaly , has- been getting more sympathy from France than for years past and the murder of President Carnet Kecrn ! ) to have Increased the bonds of friendliness between the two nations. It Is announced that the French govern ment has annulled the order , Issued In April last , suspending the stipend of the arch bishop ot Lyons and all arrears will be immediately paid. This , evidently , Is another step toward conciliation with Rome. The first step was taken yesterday , when Mgr. Ferrata , papal nuncio , walked with only a little silk skull cap on his head from the Elyscc palace to the cathedral of Notre Dame behind the remains of the late presi dent of France. Consequently , the regime ot President Coslmlr-Perler opens , Ihe day after the funeral of his predecessor , with Improved relations with Germany and with the Vati r can. The president's atlendanco nt Ihe funeral - yesterday In defiance of precedent nnd anarchy and In his admirable bearing through out the ceremonies have captured the heart of France. WOHKiU HUCKiUS : IN AMKKICA. f.nmlml Hoivell Tliorn-n In Ja 1 , lluirnvcr. LONDON. July 2. Howell Thomas , for merly solicitor for Colonnn Jacques , who rep resented Lawrence , the American claimant of the Townlcy estates , was today sentenced to five years penal sorvllude. Thomas has been on trial for some lime pasl , charged with obtaining money under false pretenses and with forging documents In connection . with Ihe case. The Judge , In Imposing sen- tcnco , said he had no doubt that Colonnn 'Jacques ' had conspired with Thomas in order to defraud people In America. The Townley estate Is ono of the many schemes Into which credulous Americans have been lured. Law rence , the American , was convinced that he was the rightful heir to the Townley es tates , situated In Yorkshire , and thai Ihe revenues of these estates had accumulated in Ihe hands of Iho IJrltlsh government until they amounted to about $70,000,000. With the assistance ot Colonna Jacques , Lawrence succeeded In raising $80,000 with which -to push his claim. Thomas was employed as collcllor for Colonna Jacques , representing the claimant. He brought an action In chan cery , which failed , and claimed he had ex pended $60,000 In costs. Colonna Jacques made an appllcallon Io compel Thomas Io flle an account showing how Ihe money had been expended. Thomas failed Io file the ac count demanded , nnd the proceedings , , which resulted In his sentence to Imprisonment , , weie then commenced. Jupiin KiiimliiK UviKlloux Into "War. LONDON , July 2.

A crowd of people were walling on Ihe bridge to see the "ships passing tn the night , " and some one shouted to the men In Captain John Buckley's boat to pull fur ther over toward Ihe Iowa side on Iho river. They did so and ran Inlo one of the middle piers of Ihe bridge , upselllng the boat nnd throwing the seventeen occupants out. Fourteen of them fell Into the river and Ihrco managed to cling to the piers of the bridge and were rescued later on. The boat which was just behind the ono that capsized picked up twelve of the men , and another boat picked up two more further down stream.

ATKINSON , Neb. , July 2. ( Special Tele gram to The Dee. ) A report reached hero this afternoon from the north part of the county that Ralph Hills and son and another man were lynched early yesterday morning near Drusli Creek. It Is said they had been arrested for arson and cattle rustling and were taken from the officers by settlers and hanged. Young Hills Is the party who stabbed a man nt Naper , In lloyd county , n couple of weeks ago. The country along Urush creek and the various other streams which run into the Nl- obrara and the canons along that stream have been since the flrsl sclllemcnt of Ihe country the hiding place of cattle rustlers. When Kid Wade and his gang were wiped oul by Ihc lynching process Ihe business of cattle rustling In thai section became un popular , but of laic years U has been re vived to some extent. During the past year or so cattle men In Holt nnd adjoining coun ties have suffered from their depredations until they have become desperate. The formation of the country Is such that It Is extremely dllllctilt to trace the thieves any distance , and still more difficult to run them down and recover the stolen property. The country Is so broken that It Is an easy mailer for parlies familiar with It to ef fectually conceal a considerable bunch of cat tle. tle.The The fact that so many catlle have been stolen In years past and the Ihleves escaped renders U extremely likely that the story of the lynching Is true , for the sentiment Is ripe for such a move If any of the thieves have been caught. ' C.IKI.OS KtRTA TKLIA HIS STOKl' . History or tlio \oliilloii ! In Honduras Told by 11 , o i\llett : I'rrtUlriit. NEW YORK , July 2. General Carlos Ezeta , Ihe fugitive ex-president of Salvador , arrived here on the steamship Newport from Colon , accompanied by his wlfo and four children. The general expressed himself freely on the revolution In Salvador and the occurrences which led up to It. "The revolution , " he said , "was duo di rectly to Guatemalan Influence and was In cited by a desire for revenge. Many na- lives of Salvador emigrated to Nicaragua after the troubles of 1890 and became sub- scrvlent to Guatemalan Influence. Chief among these were General Gulterrez , who commanded a body of Salvador's troops In that year. He was afterwards captured by my brother , Antonio Ezeta , who wounded him badly at the time. Instead of being executed ho was allowed to escape and he , with Guatemalan help , started the revolu tion. About G.OOO men were wounded and 2,000 were killed during the war. At the battle of Santa Ana we lost 3,000 men After this the revolutionists gained steadily In Salvador. When we found luck was against us I , with thirteen others , boarded the steam ship Valeria. Then when we saw our causa was lost we went to the city of Penama. "The revolutionists would not have won had they not been assisted by the Guate malans and some Hondureans. My brother Antonio did nol seek an asylum on Ihc Rennlngton. Ho was picked up by the cruiser while escaping In a sail boat. The American officars thought he was lost. The charges trumped up against him arc all false as well as those which say I fled with many millions of dollars. The trulh Is I spent nearly all the available money during my three and n half terms In paying the Salvador debts. I paid $5,000,000 for foreign debls , $5,500,000 owed to citizens , $2,000,000 went for public works , hospitals , railroads and similar Im provements. "I have no plans for the future and really do not know what I shall do. " ! IKAT It.lVK LIKE LOT'S H'rt'C. Prof. Uatrli of Dundee , N. V. , I'roljiibly rutiilly Ilurned A lln'ch or l i 7c- .

D. , July 2.-Speclnl ( to The Hee. ) Indian police have succeeded In overhauling nnd stopping the Lower Urule Sioux who left their reservation with out permission from the Indian agent. Tnc first party of Indians that started tiwny , re- gurdless of the orders of the ngent that they could not , headed south for Rosebud ngency , ostensibly to visit with their friends there until nfler the- Fourth of July , but In reality to strive to remain iherc , ns many of the Lotocr Unite * Imvo always expressed the desire to take up their resi dence with thu Rosebud Indians. Spoiled Horse , chief of the Lower Hrulc police , nnd three of his men woiu sent In pursuil as soon ns Ihe lllcht of the Indians was dis covered , and while- engaged In this duty performed n feat ot riding that entitles them to n place In the list of foremost long-distance riders of the weft , nnd which will be the talk of Iho reservation for some time to come. Sltotltd Horse has always had Ihe reputation of being one of the most tireless riders on the Sioux reserva tion , but on Ihls occasion he broke -his past records. To Intercept and return the stam peding Indians It waa necessary to ildo lint u Irlfle less thiin. ir.Q mile" , and Spotted Horse nnd his three comradt-s traveled Ihls instance without once stopping to rcsl or feed their ponies. On their return to HIP agency with Iheti prisoners It was learned that still another party of Lower Untlei hud stampeded nnd were headed for the Ynnkton agency. After u brief rest Spotted Hoise again sut out with a force of Ills police Io ovoihaul and capture them. This hu succeeded lirMoIng on Ponca creek. In Ihe extreme southern part of the slate nnd but a shoit distance north of the Nebrn.'ka.llne.

About 100 miles was the distance traveled on this second expedition after wandeilng Indians , making a total of nboul 230 miles thU Spotted Horse and his companion ! ) traveled In a comparatively brief space of time. This Instance shows the elllclency of the Indian policemen , nnd that they will perform their duties reguul- less of consequences or the hardjhlpa Inci dent therelo. _ Yiiiiliton County for Ciimlile.

WILL AWAIT THE DECISION TODAY Itnllroitd OiilclulH ApprehenMie of n Com- I > lco I.onil Tin Up This Morning SlumInn ! mi the 1.1 lien loitering Thin City. If tlic federated board of tlic railway unions , which meets In Denver todny , votes to sustain the boycott against I'tilliiinn cars , Omaha divisions Nos. 12 and 193 of tlic American Railway union Will go out at once. This Is the substance of the action taken at n Joint meeting of the two unions which was held In Knights of Labor hall last even ing. ing.Tho The meeting called out n full attendance of the local unions and the hall was filled with members when President Miller of No. 12 called them to order. The unions re mained In secret session for thrco hours with the result mentioned above. The pro ceedings were not made public beyond the fact that n decision had been reached. It Is said , however , that the action taken received the Indorsement of a largo majority of the members. After some discussion a com mittee was appointed to draft a scries of resolutions to be submitted to the meeting for approval. Tlic resolutions , after stating belief In the justice of the demands of the union , declared In favor of deferring any decisive action until after the meeting of the federated board and then abiding by Its action. It was further provided that a copy of these resolutions bo sent to President Debs nnd another to the federated board , with the request that the latter body should at once notify the local union of Its de cision. There seemed to be but little doubt among the members that the board would sustain the boycott , nnd It was decisively stated that In that event the Omaha unions would strike nt once. That tlic meeting was re garded In a serious light by the railroad Interested was Indicated by the number of railroad detectives who spent the evening In the neighborhood of the hall. These were regarded with suspicion by the men , how ever , and every precaution was taken to prevent them from obtaining any Informa tion. Yesterday was n day of great unpaslncss among the ofilclals of the various railroads terminating at Omaha , for not one of them knew just what moment the employes might decide to quit work or refuse to handle the business of the yards. WHERE THE TRAIN'S ARE. The sum of the Information which Pres ident Clark of the Union Pacific learned yesterday outside the gcnciul situation on eastern lines , was that Union Pacific No. 7 of June 30 , waj tied up nt Rawllns ; Nos. 1 imd 3 , consolidated , of the same date , were dcad""at Laramle ; NOH. 3 and 7 of July 1 , consolidated , left Laramle last night at 5:30 : eastbound , but with some doubt as to get ting through without being stopped. No trains have crrlvcd from Ogden since Sat urday , and no freights are moving west of Cheyenne. Yesterday General Manager Dickinson Is- eued a-general order to all the heads of dc- 'partments ' that , In1 view of the cessatlo"n"ln business at.terminal paints , caused by the strike , It would be expected that forces should lie reduced In accordance , pending the settlement of the strike. Last night the uneasiness noticeable In railroad circles had visibly Increased , nnd It was generally agreed that the Omaha lines would bo completely tied up by morning. The local employes of the Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha , being Informed of the probability of n complete tie up , decided last evening that If by reason of the tie up they should be laid off pending the settlement of the boycott , they would Join the American Railway union tea a man , but If the company continued them In Its employ , notwithstanding they may not be called upon to perform any work , they will refrain from joining the union and remain loyal to the company. General Passenger Agent Lomax said that the little business promised for the re mainder of the year was completely knocked In the head by reason of the boycott , which , he Intimated , was costing the railroads $1,000,000 n day , and ho thought it would cost Hie- companies $50,000,000 by the time the boycott was ended. Wherever possible the railroads are taking care of fruit In transit by running the cars Into Ice houses until such times as fruit may NOTICE TO ALL EMPLOYES , be moved without possibility of stoppage. Lute yesterday afternoon the following bulletin was posted at nil division points on the Union Pacific : July 1 , ISO I. To All nmploycs : Thl * Is to notify you that the Pullman sleeping and "dining csrs operated on the line or this sv&lem nro association curs , of which the lnon ; Pacific owns n three-fourths Interest.

COUDERT. Receivers. It was the first official utterance from the receivers that a strike was nn on their sys tem of railroads , nnd was read with consid erable Interest by their employes , who gathered In little groups after the bulletin had been posted to discuss the situation. Detwcon Omaha and St. Louis the Wabash continues to operate trains , but there Is n very effectual blockade at St. Louts and ono that promises to last for several days , ac cording to Wabash olllclals at this point. Little dlfilculty Is being experienced by the Northwestern out of Omaha , trains Nos. 1 and 6 arriving on time. This practically tells the situation on the Milwaukee , although trains are a trifle late on this line , due to detention In Chicago , all the block tenders along Western avenue having been bodily fired out of their plaecs , which necessitates slow running through the city. General Manager Huldrege Kald that the nurllngton was not suffering , but didn't know how soon It would. The Missouri Pacific Is running Its local trains and shipping freight via Relmonl , but there h some doubt whether they will be able to get through trains Into St. Louis. At Z o'clock ycstciday General Agent Nash of the Milwaukee re ceived the following telegram from General Superintendent W. A. Collins : "Thu general grievance committee of the St. Paul system met today and unanimously refused to declare a strike on this system. " The Rock Island officials stole a inarch on the men nt Council Uluffa and prevented the strike which was announced for yes terday from malerlallz ng by laying off nearly all the men. In place of three switching crews only one was working at the hour sel for the strike and that wan composed of noiuympathlzers. At the round house only two men were employed In place of live and they too were nonunion men. All others had been given notice of an Indefinite lay off. The clerks In the freight ofilce were also let out at noon. Thu employes believe that this Is done by the olllclals to prevent what they feared would bo a walkout. It Is rumored that the officials are hiring n new force of men and that as soon as the plan la completed an attempt will bo made to start running trains again. HOW THE ROCK ISLAND STANDS. No trains are coming Into the muffs from the cast on the Rock Island , and the only passenger train from the west tint has come In for forty-eight hour * Is the Denver limited , duo there at 0 o'clock. This Is no longer n Denver limited , but Is made up In western Nebraska , It runs no farther than Stuart , 100 miles cast of Council Bluffs. Freight Agent Dcnton used a good deal of forcible rhetoric yentcrday In denying the assertion that n strike had been ordered for 6 o'clock yesterday morning. From the of ficers of the local American Railway union , however , It Is learned that the order for the strike had been received from President Debs nnd uould undoubtedly have been put Into effect had not the railway company been to disabled as to let the men out of Us own accord. Mr. Dcnton claims Out the men have not even been discharged , but merely laid off , nnd ho nlso nays that those who were laid off for want of anything toile ilo will be put hack today , while the few who worked yesterday will be given their share of the general rest this morning. Grand Muster Workman J. R. Sovereign of the Knights of Libor telegraphed President C. II. Warren of the loc.il branch of the American Railway union of the HI lifts that ho would arrive there this morning over the Northwestern to look over the situation. He will remain In Council Bluffs all day nnd be present at a meeting of all the labor or ganizations at Liberty hall In the evening. United States Marslml Bradley of Council Bluffs received n telegram from United States Judge Woolson yesterday ordering him to go nt once to Fort Madison to protect rail road property and to enforce n writ of In junction against Interference with the trains of the Santa Ke.

Special Telegram to The lice. ) The strike today extended to the Milwaukee and Illinois Central. Train men nnd firemen abandoned their trains ns fast as they came In and all switchmen struck on the Milwaukee. On the Illinois Central the strike Is confined to the switch men , but the result has been n complete tie- up of all freight trains on both roads. At 7 o'clock this morning the firemen Joined the strike on the Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omnhn. One passenger went out over the Omaha today. A "scab" crew- has been trying all day to gel n pasetnger out over the Nebraska division of the Ornalin. The strikers have spiked switches and pre vented It going. A force of deputies sur rounded section men who undertook to draw the spikes. The mob crowded In on them nnd carried the deputies away and the switches were resplked before n train coud ! cross them. A "scab" conductor who went off his train to turn n switch was hooted and stoned and driven out of the yard. The strikers will ask the city council to demand the resignation of Chief of Police Young , who ilied n freight engine out yes terday. The Omaha company wants Sheriff Daven port to call on the governor for mllltla to aid It In moving passenger trains. He says no property has been destroyed nnd declines to do EO until the crowds get to rioting. Wholesale business and business In the packing houses and stock yards here Is par alyzed as n result of the strike. A mob 3,000 strong gathered nt the tracks tonight and stopped the Illinois Central mall nnd express as It left the Terminal company's depct. They spiked switches and derailed box car ? across the track. A force of deputies attempted to clear the tracks , but were driven back by the mob. The strikers demanded that the Pullmans be taken off. The company olllclals refused and the train was abandoned. The terminal tracks ere In the custody ef Receiver Hough of the United States court , and the court will bo appealed to fcr protect on. The Omaha tracks are also spiked and blocked to prevent the passage of the St. Paul express at 9:40 : , with three Pullmaiu at tached. The sheriff and.police , are unable to cope with the mob , and It Is probable tha governor will bo asked to send-milltla here tomorrow At 11 o'clock a crowd of several thousand people Is still collected along the tracks leading to the Union depot. A mob cut off three Pullman cars from the Kansas City train on the Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha tonight , and pushed them toward the river. Many of the passengers were women and children , who screamed with terror , but the cars were finally left on a stdo track near the packing houses. The mob is entirely beyond control , nnd Sheriff Davenport tonight called upon Colonel Foster for companies II and I , and has telegraphed the governor for the entire Fourth regiment. The deputy sheriffs are powerless , and are not attempting tonight to do anything with the mob , which Is In full possession of the switch yards nnd tracks. The tracks arc being spiked down and nothing can be done till the military takes a hand , which will doubtless be tomorrow. DKI'KNUING UN DHIIS. Cheyenne RmplnycK of tin Union Will Nut ( io to Worlc.

CHICAGO , July 3. The regular troops at Fort Sheridan have been crdered to move this morning. The destination Is not known at present , but Is supposed to be llhio Island. CHICAGO , July 2. Today's developments In Ihc great Piillman-Amcrk'an Railway union strike have been prolific In sensation alism , the principal theater of action being In Chicago and adjacent suburbs. Wild rumors were rife when It was announced thai orders had been Ibsued for the Second regiment to proceed at once to Blue Island , eighteen miles out. Exlra editions ot all evening papers , with warlike headlines , were eagerly scanned by thousands of anx ious people. The rcporl proved lulcr to bo unfounded. The first serious clash occurred today when 200 deputy United States mar shals were surrounded at Illtio Island by 2,000 strikers , who openly defied federal au thority. Weapons were drawn on both sides and Deputy Marshal John A. Logan was painfully cut with n knife , but when a bloody conflict teemed Imminent the deputies retired to the barrack cars to await rein forcements , leaving the strikers masters ot the situation. This evening nn Injunction from the United States court wns rend and bulletined. The authority of the Unllcd States was openly defied and after a few minutes quiet tha riotous spirll of the strikers reasserted Itself. At midnight reporls of other disorders were current , U being slated thai Ihe strikers were tearing down the bulletin mandate ot Ihe couit. Fearing to precipitate bloodshed the Rock Island decided after Its 5:30 : ex press had been gotten through not to make any effort to move trains tonight , but to morrow can hardly , I'full ' to bring n crlsl-/ i The strikers have now locked horns with the state and federal authorities. The railroad officials nro chafing under the continued embargo on business , and tha desperate condition of their late employes , determined not to . york- themselves nor to allow others to do KO , Is evidenced by the flood of reports of Individual conflicts hero and thera coming from all over Ihc city. A number of trains have been derailed by misplaced switches. A Panhandle passen ger was partly ditched at Klnzle and Canal streets tonight , but was not seriously de layed. The strikers are stealing brassss from the axle boxes ot cars , nnd In some Instances dropping coupling pins Into the cross head guides of the locomotives , causing the destruction of cylinder heads. Tana of fruit , vegetables , Ice , meats nnd other perishable goods stand in Iho cars under a broiling Kim , no one caring or daring to move It to Its destination. Dumb animals , crowded Inlo slock cars , suffer thirst and hunger , and prices of vegetables and fruits arc going up. WAITING FOR DAYLIGHT. It Is thought no move likely to precipitate , hostilities will be made before daylfghl. At midnight District Attorney Mllchrlst , when asked If troops had yet been ordered out from Fort Sheridan , said : "I do nol think ( , j they would be called oul until Ihe order of * the courts has been violated and the judges 4 recommend such n measure being4 taken jj to uphold the dignity of the court and Jus tice. Unless the trouble Is brought to an end soon , It Is my opinion the strike will terminate In bloodshed. " The firemen of the Lake Shore elevated road decided after midnight thai they would strike to assist the American Railway union. The specific cause of the strike Is .1 that the elevated road received some coal 4 delivered by the Panhandle , boycolted by Die American Railway union. Two thousand strikers at Blua Island today overcame 200 deputy sheriffs and marshal. The latter gave up the unequal battle and called for stale and federal aid. Telegrams were bent to United States District Atlorney .Mllchrlst and Sheriff Gilbert asking that the Fftcenth regiment , , U. S. A. ( regulars ) , from Fort Sheridan and the mllltla bo sent to clear the blockade and preverve order. The telegrams were sent after Iho force at the yards had been beaten In an attempt to clear the way for the mall trains. About 2,000 strikers gathered around the cars and effectually stopped any attempt , to move trains. Marshal Arnold and Deputy Lclbrant , In charge ot the sheriffs , conferred and decided that they must have aid In order to make any headway. Their conference resulted In the transmission of thcso telegrams : United States District Attorney Mllchrlst , Chicago : Wire secretary of war mob ot 2.100 men here. We nre unable to Imndla < them. Ask him to send the Fifteenth regi ment from Fort Sheridan. Answer. MARSHAL ARNOLD. Sheriff Gilbert , Chicago : Mob of 2,000. We are unable to cope with them. Better nsk the governor to sen aid at once. FIIED LEIUUANDT. General Supirlnlcndent Dunlap , Assistant Nichols and Roadmastcr Conlln were In charge of the forces for the road. The first move was toward clearing Iho dummy trucks that had been filled with passenger trains. Officers of the road went Into con ference with Mayor Haclmrlas of Blue Island considering details of raising the blockade Around the tracks and cars a large crowd of strikers gathered. Tlio bituatlon along the tracks quickly threatened to become dangerous. Attempts on the part of the railway officials to move Irdlns were combated by determined re- slKlancc. The strikers formed across tha tracks and tried to place themselves In * . position that would result In Injury to themselves - ; ' selves should the train bo moved. STRIKERS STOOD THEIR GROUND. About 100 murshalo and deputy sheriffs lined the tracks , but the Ftrlkers would not move. Deputy Marshal Logan jumped from a cur and Miirud to drlveu stubbotn striker from the tracks. For a time Ihe conflict was general. Revolvers were displayed on both bides , but shots were not fired. The strikers succeeded In stopping thu movement ot the . , . ' , trains. About noon the train of passenger cars on . the dummy track was madu up and started j out ot the yards. Stones were thrown by 1 the strikers , knlvos were drawn nnd the deputies on the train showed their revolvers. The strikers kn hemmed In the train and yards thai II became Impossible to move the train a Miorl distance through the yard * . Village Police Officer Michael Lar son added to the confusion by jumping on the engine and trying to nrrest the engineer for violating a town ordinance forbidding trains to block eroultiBS for more than flva minutes. The d puty marshals threw tha nollcoman from the train , Hy this tlmo the mob had become so boutrrnus that the attempt to move the train wus abandoned and the ofllcora retired U
