South Omaha ?
Local real cstnto circles have been con
siderably excited the pant day or two over
the alienated purchase by an eastern syndi
cate of n tract of land at the west end of the
Q street viaduct. Tlie negotlallcns have been
concluded with the utmost kcerecy nnd n-
definite statements will ha made by the In
terested parties. 11 Is known , however , lhat
excellent offero have bci made to Chris
flraff , Thomaa Whlttlesey and Councilman
William Dennett for their property , and It
was understood yesterday afternoon that the
deal was about to lie closed.
Certain persons who profea to know stated
that the purchase was being made for
Armour and that another packing house waste
to he erected In that neighborhood. The fact
that last Euminer the Stock Yards company
purchased from D. Jetter two and one-half
ncrca of ground In the vicinity of the Q street
viaduct ruther gave color to the report. The
Block yards paid $12,000 an acre for the
tract , or $30,000 for the amount purchased.
Contrary to expectations nothing lias bceo
donu with the purchase , the ground having
been Idle ever alnco Iho Iransfcr 'was made.
As Iho amount of land being negotiated
( or comprises only about twoacres It will ba
seen that even though purchased by Armour
the whole tract , Including the purchase of
lest year , would not ba large enough for the
erection of a packing house. Others as-
oorted lhat the land was being purchased for
the Stock Yards company and that the yards
would be enlarged at thai point. This utatc-
inrnt , however , la not reasonable , as the
Stock Yards company has any quantlly of
land lying to the west of the present pens ,
which Is partially graded , nnd If any exlon-
tlon was lo be made Ihls ground would most
likely bo used.
Another straight tip was thai Iho Omaha.
Street Hallway company Intended buying the
ground and would erect a largu street car
imrn. In fact Secretary Goodrich of the
street railway company was here looking
over the land n few days ago. Goodrlch's
trip was purely one ot accommodation , his
presence lu that locality being for the purj
rose of throwing curious persons oft the
track.
Still another version Is that the ground
will be occupied by the beet sugar factory ,
the managers of the concern having decided
that thu location won much better than the
ono at first selected In the northern part of'
the city. No streets and alleys -would have
to bo vacated In thn 0 street tract , while
uucli la not the case with the trad to the
north. Then there arc those who say Ihat
*
the ground la to be used by the Cramps for
a factory which utilizes cornstalks. An ac
count of this project was given In The Dei !
of lact Friday. All tlicr.o rumors and more ,
too , are afloal.
It In umlerwtood , however , thai the deal la
About to tin closed for the land , and one
thing Is euro Iho purchasers will he com
pelled to pay n good prlco for It. Something
.dellulte will no doubt bn given to the public
as goon as the papers are signed and the
tramifcr made.

Into a saloon. A game of dlco was soon
going nnd ono of the swindlers Induced Iho
countryman to loan him some money , prom
ising to glvo him half of what ho won on
the dice game. The money changed hands
and of course the borrower lost. Both
swindlers then hastily left the resort via
the rear door. Gleran hunted up an attor
ney , who laid the matter before Chief Bren-
nan. As Gleran could not give any de
scription of the men who obtained his money
the police could do nothing.
After Another Nnlmuioo.
Hugh Kennedy has been notified by Inspector
specter Carroll to abate a milsanen at
Twenty-fourth and Wyman streets. The Inspector
specter says that live stock Is being slaugh
tered nt this point for butchers who prefer
to buy shcaper grade of meat than Is sold
by the packing houses. Around this place
Is a pile of bones and refuse of carcasses
which emits a horrible ordor. The parties
operating the plant were given twelve hours
in which to clean up. Inspector Carroll
proposes to compel theo people to haul the
refu&o to the river after this.

ALLEN RISES TO DEFENSE OF BRYAN
Srnliir Srmilor Tiilion Up

rrrnlilcntlnl fniK
WASHINGTON , Juno 28. After a conlcsl
lasting throughout the day. the senate com
pleted the paragraphs of the wool schedule
relating to raw wool and advanced Into the
features relating to manufactured woolen
goods. The day wns devoted largely to a
discussion of Iho effect of the tariff rates In
the prlco of wool and the speeches were on
technical lines In the main. At ono point
Mr. Hoar diverted the discussion by a ref-
urcnco to the tariff. Thlo brought Senators
.Mantle , Allen and Stewart to the defense
of Mr. Hryan. Mr. Teller was drawn Into
the controversy and In a few remarks
warned his former republican associates
thai their hopes of prosperity from Ihls bill
would bo blasted. Mr. Quay made a strong
effort to have thu house ad valorem rales on
third-class wool adopted , but ho was de
feated 19 to 41. The committee rates. Were
then agreed to , vizI : cents per pound on
third-clam wool , valued at 10 cents or less
per pound , and 7 cents per pound on third-
class wool valued above 7 cents per pounJ.
The wool schedule was completed up lo
paragraph 361 , relating to cloths , knit fab
rics , elc. Rarly In the day Mr. Allen , popu
list of Nebraska , rising lo a question of
personal privilege , made a sweeping denial
of public charges that W. J. Bryan had con
tributed $1GOO to the populist cause In order
to effect fusion.
An eloquent tribute to the long
and Illustrious reign of Queen Vic
toria was the feature of the opening
prayer before the senate lodny by the actIng -
Ing chaplain , Uov. Hugh Johnson. "Wo
thank Thee , " ho said , "for the demonstra
tions of joy , both national and International ,
over her majesty , Queen Victoria , com
pleting her long and Illustrious reign of
sixty yeara ; we thank Thee for her ex
emplary llfo and personal qualities as wife ,
as queen , as mother ; that her court has been
pure and her throne without a stain ; we
thank Theo for all the achievements of the
Anglo-Saxon race during this auspicious
period of tuo world's history In all avenues
of llteralure , art , science ; for the cordial re
lations belween the two great nations , ono In
language , literature , laws , civil and religious
liberty. May they bo bound together In
perpetual bonds of peace. "
ALLBN DEFENDS IHIYAN.
Mr. Allen of Nebraska then arose to a
question of personal privilege In connection
with the conduct of the last campaign.
There was much Interest In the statement.
as Mr. Allen was chairman of the populist
national convention. Mr. Allen rend a pub
lished preen dispatch from Lowlston , Me. ,
saying lhat Prof. L. C. Hatemari , candidate
for governor of Iho peoplo'o party of Maine
last year , was out In an allack on William
J. Hryan lo Iho effect that Mr. Bryan's gift
of $1,500 to Iho populist national committee
was wllh the distinct understanding that
no action against fusion should bo taken by
Iho populist , national convention.
Mr. Allen made a sweeping denial. He
said Mr. Bryan had determined to divide the
royalties on his book , and In doing so hn al
lotted $1,500 lo the populist party. The
draft was sent to Mr. Allen , but the chair
man of the populist national committee
( Senator Butler of North Carolina ) declined
to accept It. Thereupon , at the Instance of
Mr. Bryan , Mr. Allen InvesloJ Ihe amount
to bo used In the Interest of bimetallism.
Mr. Allen declared that the statement that
any agreement existed as to fusion In con
nection with the gift was "an absolute- and
unqualified falsehood. There had never
been , " he declared , "au attempt to fuse the
parties , either nationally or locally. " Mr.
Allen also specifically denied the statement
that Mr. Bryan forged his ( Allen's ) name to
the list appended to the letter of notifica
tion. The senator closed with a high tribute
to ( Mr. Bryan and au arraignment of Prof.
Bateman.
Mr. J3utler stated briefly that the offer was
made to biro , but ho felt Impelled to de-
cllnu It. Ho approved Mr. Bryan's motive ,
but felt that the acceptance might bo opeu
to misconstruction. The offer had been
made , ho said , without any condition ex
pressed or Implied.
The wool schedule was then taken up.
The paragraph relating to third-class wools
was taken up. There was considerable op
position to the proposed ratea , the debate
being largely on technical ilnca relative to
grades of wool.
Senator Quay moved to restore the house
rate of 2 per cent ad valorem on third class
wool valued at 13 cents or Ices. Wcatern
senators combated It.
Mr. Quay moved to lay on the table the
amendments of the finance committee to
paragraph 357 ( wool ) , the effect being to
restore the house rates , and Ihe motion wag
lost. 19 to 41.
Mr. Teller made a vigorous speech , In
which ho asserted that he wanted the tariff
bill passed. Ho charged the republicans
with having no desire to push the tariff
bill , If they wanted to they might have
pa ied It thirty days ago , ho said.
Mr. Teller , replying to some remarks of
Mr. Hoar to the effect that Mr. Bryan would
have vetoed a tariff bill for a duty on.'iool ,
although some of his supporters were now
urging a higher rate , dialed that If Mr.
Hoar or any other senator was going to
bring the last campaign Into the debate the
bill would bo delayed Indefinitely , as the
Bllver men would not allow such asscrtloca
to go unchallenged.

WASHINGTON , Juno 23. From Cenlral
America comes news of ono of Ihoso pitiful
cases that at short Intervals are brought
to the attention of the State department ,
whcro our great government is shown to be
utterly unahlfj to help lu the slightest de
gree its citizens when in the depths of dis
tress. James William Scandrett writes
from Livingstone , Guatemala , praying
the secretary of state for help.
Ho says bo Is an American citi
zen , having lived In San Francisco for
eleven years , and has proofs of good charac
ter. Going to Salvador to erect machinery
ho has suffered the most miserable hard
ships through stckncfri , wounds and iitarva-
llon. Appeals for help to the American
consul were without avail because the ofllclal
hod no authority to expend money to ship
the man to New Orleans. Ho aayw the
British consul would have sent him homo
had ho been an Englishman , and ho prays
the secretary for relief lest ho dlo of hard
ship , as the consul saya there Is unfor
tunately no fund at Iho disposal of Iho Stale
department for the relief of destitute * Ameri
cans abroad , such as Iho British service
provides.

WASHINGTON , Juno 23. ( Special Tele-
Brain. ) Juil n . .Voumans of the Inlerstate
Commerce commission said today that llie
decision In the Omaha bridge arbitrary case
would In all.jH-oljnblllty be handed down In a.
very short Uwn-l The rumor that the mem
bers had dtofiRWd wfm Incorrect for the
reason that Commissioner Knapp , to whom
the writing of the opinion had been given ,
had failed to prepare the case In time to pass
upon It before the commission left Washing
ton for the wtflt. When asked how tin'
commlFslon would hold , in view of the -cccnt
decision of the supreme court , Judj , V'ou-
mans eald that the decision of Ihe court had
no bearing upon Ihls case , and that there
was only ono way of deciding the bridge con.
trovcrsy. In view of llie fact lhat Youmans
has been In favor of Iowa It Is not hard to
guess what the decision will be.
Senator I'cltlgrew offered a resolution to
day providing that a committee from the
committee on Indian affairs should be went
on a vlalt of Invcatlgatlon to the Indian
tribes and schools of the I'lvo Nations. The
resolution Is prompted by a great many
complalntn , which are being consUnlly
made In regard lo the manner In which the
agencies are conducted on the reservations
and will probably Include a visit to the
Omaha and Wlnnebago agency In Nebraska.
It Is the purpose nt least of some of the

Interested in securing farm lenses from

WASHINGTON , Juno 23. Mr. Mnsonni
Macdca , cx-vlco mlnlslcr of agrlculluro of
Japan , Is In Ihe clly. a guest at the Japanese
legallon. He Is accompanied by Mr. Furuyn ,
Iho represcnlallvo al New York of the Japan
Tea Traders' association of Toklo. Mr.
Maedea represents about twelve commercial
associations of Japan , and his mission herp
Is to advance. It porslblo. the trade relations
between Iho Iwo countries. Mr. Maedea says
Ihe Japanese arecxlremcly anxious to give
thp United Stales a largo share of their
trade , and his purpose In coming here Is , In
part , to Investlgalo the prlccn of railroad
and telephone equipments. The Japanese
government Is about to expend n largo
sum of money In railroad and telephone cx-
lenslons , and It would bo very satlsfaclory
to Ihe Japanese people If Iho malerlals and
ciiulpments could bo purchased In the United
Stales.
For pomo unknown reason , Mr. Maedea
said. Ihe people of this country had never
seriously undertaken to extend Ihe Irade
with Japan. They do nol seem to appreciate
the fact , he sold , that the Japanese prefer
lo Irado with America rather Ihan with any
of the European nations , and It was his
opinion that a very largo reciprocal trade
might very easily be built up between Iho
two nallons. As a rule the Important prod
ucts of Japan did not In any way conlll"t
with American manufactures , and ho saw
no reason whey the .Irade of bolh countries
could nol be greally cxlended lo Ihelr mu
tual advonlages.
In Bpcaklng of Hawaii , Mr. Maedea said
there wao absolutely no sentiment In Japan
In favor of Japanese annexation of the Is
lands , ellhcr among Iho government officials
or among the common people. Japan did
not wish Hawaii , but It did desire to have
Its trade Interests protected and Us treaty
wllh the Islands kept Inviolate.
