The latest reports from Texas Indicate
that the people of that state who ore de
termined that the Lone Star state shall bo
represented at itie exposition have taken
matters In their own Ciandii and have ousted
the board of commissioners , which baa been
doing llttlo but wasting time since It was >
appointed , and have appointed a new com
mission which Uicy e-iy Is composed of men
who are Interested In seeing the state well
represented and will make aa exhibit ot
the resources of the state which will be a
credit to the largest state In the untou.
This new move Is ( tie direct rc-
eult of the combination ot the
Houston Business League with the San An-
'tonto & Aransas Pass Railway Immigration
acuoclatlon which was effected a few weeks
ago. These organizations have assumed the
entire burden of making a Texas exhibit
nnd have raised the money with which to
meet oil the expenses , so thai u good ex
hibit Is assured from this state.
The new organization hos com
municated these facts to the ex-
potltlon management and lias asked that
a new Texas Exposition commission to be
named In place of the olJ commission which
is pronounced officially dead. The follow
ing members of the new commission are
recommended by the Texas "wideawakes"
and will undoubtedly be appolnteJ by. the
exposition management : C. S. Pen'fleld ,
Houston , chairman of the executive
committee ; Rufus Cage , Houston , secretary
of executive committee ; M. G. Ranney , Yoa-
kum ; W. A. Chlldrcss , Houston ; O. M. Peter-

been working with might and main to bring
about a condition of aflalrs which would re
sult In a display being made , will still hold
his position as vice president for the state.
AItllA\GI.\G UOVIill.VMKVr EXIIIHIT.
OfllulnlM Come to 1'nt tlic Dlrtiilny In
IMnvc In the IltillilliiK.
A party of government officials and em
ployes has arrived In the city to begin ac-
tlvo work on the preparation of the ex
hibits In the Government bulldtag on the
exposition grounds. This party comprises
W. V. Cox , secretary of tlie Board of Man
agement of the Government building ; Prof.
Charles Richards Dodge , chief ot ( tie Bureau
of Fibre Investigations of the Department
of Agriculture ; J. A. Wilson , son of the
secretary of Agriculture ; Harry Brlgham ,
son of tbo assistant secretary of agriculture ;
James L. Farmer , stenographer for Secre
tary Cox.
Mr. Cox Is the executive officer of the
Board of Management and will a'so bo cus
todian of the Government building , the lat
ter appointment having Jiust been made by
the secretary of the trcosury. He will re
main In Omaha until the exposition is
closed and the material com
prising the exhibits taken care
of. Mr. Cox IMS had long experience
In exposition work , having been directly con
nected with every exhibit made by the gov
ernment at expositions Elnco 18S3. His
opinion regarding the display which will
bo made by the departments of the govern
ment Is , therefore , the opinion of an expert
and entitled to great weight.
"I am greatly pleased with the beautiful
btilldlnc which has been erected by the
government , " said Mr. Cox. "It is the
handsomest structure ever erected by the
government at any exposition In which It
has participated. The exhibits which will
be made la the building by the various
departments will be superior to all pre
vious attempts In that line. The officers
having Immediate charge ot the several
departments have all had experience In
other expositions , and they have profited
by that experience with the result that all
that Is not desirable In an exhibit has been
eliminated and Its place Is filled with ma
terial which Improves the display and makes
It moro Interesting and Instructive. "
The first action taken by Secretary Cox
after his arrival was to telegraph to'Wash-
ington for more assistance and the work ol
Installation will be pushed vlsorous'y. Nearly
every department now has a representative
on the ground and tbe active work of Instal
lation has been commenced. In order to In-
lure hr.rmotiy In the general appearance of
the Interior of the building a committee on
Installation nnd decoration has been ap
pointed to supervise tue colors used by the
different departments and oversee the gen
eral arrangement ot tbe exhibits. This com
mittee consists of Prof. F. W. Clarke of the
Interior department , G. E. Kempr , assistant
supervising archtect , and Colonel J. B.
Brownlow of the PostofDce department. Tills
committee will arrive within a very few
days.Mr
Mr , Cox is stopping at the Mlllard hotel
and will maintain an office there as well at
lu the Government building on the groundi.

Neb. Ho left this city yesterday on a Chicago
cage , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha freight
train and rode on the trucks as far as Fort
Oalhoun , where he was ordered oft by the
train crew. The ccoductor had told him to
leave the train at the previous station , but
llofslter had regained his place while the
train -was In motion In wliat was commented
on aa a very skillful manner.
As the train pulled out ot Calhouo Ros-
sltcr once more endeavored to swing hlm-
aelf underneath a ear by means of a support
ing brace. Ho chose the rear truck , however ,
and his foot was caught by the wheel , drag
ging lilm underneath. 'He ' was dragged some
distance before the tralo could be stopped.
Several witnesses carried Hossltcr to the
depot where a surgeon founJ thai 'join legs
wcro broken , as well as the right arm and
several ribs. The Injured man was brought
to this city and taken to St. Joseph's hos
pital where It was found that tie amputa
tion of both legs would be necessary. The
outcome of the operation Is In doubt.
Tlossltcr says that no blame Is attached
to the train crew for his accident and laja
Jt entirely to his own carelessness.

Railroad men who have had the privilege
of examining the four new trains wlilch the
Burlington Route , on the 1st of May , place !
In service between Denver , Omaha and Chicago
cage , say they are as magnificently equipped
as any In the country that even the
famous limited expresses between Chicago
and New York are not handsomer or more
luxurious. Every car Is wldo vestlbuled , and
waa built especially for the Burlington
Route.
The Jour trains are Identical In appearance
and arrangement. Each Is composed of a
buffct-smoklng-llbrary car ( with bath and
barber shop ) , a palace sleeping car , a dining
car , and two reclining chair cars. The buf-
fet-smoklng-llbrary car Is something new
for a Denver-Chicago line. It Is a veritable
clubhouse on wheels , whore one nwy read ,
write , smoke , talk , or play cards , while
traveling at the rate of fifty miles an hour.
It Is handsomely carpeted and furnished with
settees , cuchloned easy chairs , a lavatory ,
a writing desk , a compartment for card-
players , and a well stocked buffet. The cur
rent periodicals and newspapers are on file ,
and a carefully selected library Is provided
for the free use of passengers. The sleeping
car te a gem , end tbe chair and dining cars
are In every way worthy of the train of
which they form an Important part.
These palatial trains leave Omaha dally
at 11:55 : p. in. for Denver and at 12:05 : a. rn.
for Chicago.

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS

GARBAGI ORDINANCE GOES THROUGH

'I'hirty-Sceonil Avenue rnv-
Inc Knocked Ont.
The new garbage ordinance was passed by
the city council last night after the first
really extended debate that has occurred In
the council during this administration.
Stuht made his longest speech on record in
opposition to the ordinance and won the
applause of the garbage men , who helped to
nil the lobby.
The discussion occurred on the report of
the Judiciary committee , -which recom
mended that the ordinance pass after It had
been amended to permit property owners to' '
haul their own stable manure without using
a water tight box. Stuht was the first man
on the floor and he declared that the pro
posal to pass the ordinance was an unquali
fied outrage. He said that it had been
drawn up by Interested outuldo parties and
was , designed to close up every loophole
that the courts had created In the garbage
contract.
Mercer defended the committee report. He
said that It was not the fault ot the present
contract that the MacDinald contract had
been executed , but since It existed the city
had no choice but to enforce It. Ho In
sisted that If the ordinance was amended
as suggested by the com m It tee no one's
rights would be endangered.
Stuht and Lobeck then made a couple of
speeches apiece In opposition and Stuht
moved that the brdlnance be recomltted.
This was voted down and the committee re
port adopted :

S.SE'NDS
SE'NDS ' IN SOME VETOES.
Mayor Moorcs vetoed the resolution author
izing the comptroller to have 500 copies of
the 1897 ar.nuul reports printed on the
ground that thc-propcncd volume woe not In
keeping with the dignity of the city. He In
stated that thle was a false economy at this
time , but the couicil took a different view
and passed the resolution over ithe veto.
The ordinance ordering the paving of
Thirty-second avenue south of Center street
was also returned without the executive ap
proval. The mayor called attention to the
fact that under the rulings of the supreme
court the cent of this pavement must be
paid frctn the Intersection fueid. The entire
amount that would accrue to this fund would
bo used In districts for which petitions were
already on file. If Thirty-second avenue
were paved It would use up this fueid and
the work already contemplated could not be1
carried on. Ho wes unwilling to approve a
messuro that proposed to stop all improve-
mcnta for the benefit of a single district.
The veto was unanlmouoly sustained.
tVnothct * executive communication called
atitcntlon to the death of General Charles C.
Wolcutt ot Columbus , O. , which occurred hi
this city Monday. The mayor spoke highly
cf General Wolcutt's record as a soldier and
a citizen and the memorial was ordered
spread on the Journal.
The mayor also suggested that some action
should bo taken to regulate the numecouo
restaurants that had nprung up In anticipa
tion ot the exposition. He called attention
to the fact ' .hat these establishments were
very careless In their disposal of garbage
and were likely to bee.'me a nuisance duvlng
the hot weather. He recommended that an
ordinance be pceeed placing them tinier
strict regulation by the llcenc-3 Inspector ,
and the Idea wan referred to the committee
on lire , water'and police.

The Beard of Public Works reported that
the erst of fitting up the Dodge school
building for a city Jail would be $6.650 , ac

LATEST ORDER OF THE WAR DEPARTMiNr
State Trooim Will DC Taken Into
the Sen-Ice of the United
Btntc * llefnre ContluB
. to Oninhn.
"Ho who Uugha list may laugh best , but
bo who laugba first may have the moat ( un
out ci { It , " tald a prominent passenger man
to The Dec In speaking ot the orders and
counter-orders regarding tbo transportation
ot tbe two reglmenta of Infantry ot the
atato trom Lincoln to Omaha. The latest
orders trom the War department to the
effect that the state troops would bo held
at Lincoln and mustered In there caused
no more commotion anywhere than It did
In passenger circles.
The Missouri Pacific had been awarded the
contract on Saturday by the state. On Monday
Hie government held that tile contract let by
the state was void , as Uncle Sam was to
pay for the movement , and ordered new bids
from the railroads. The Missouri Pacific
secured the contract from thp state on a
bid of S2 > cents per man , but this wasn't
dear low enough for the bidding on Monilay ,
and the Burlington wag awarded the con
tract at a bid of 25 cents per man , Including
his baggage. On Saturday the Missouri Pa
cific laughed at the ( Qurllngton. On .Mon
day the tableawore turaeJ , and Tuesday
found still another reversal back to the
situation of Saturday.
The railroads on Tuesday morning agreed
to make a rate of one fare for the round
trip to Lincoln from all points within 100
miles , In order that all wlio cared to see
the review of the state troops oa that date
by Governor Holcomb might travel at a
cheap rate , though not nearly at such a
cheap rate as lia',1 been offered the soldiers.
The Department of Missouri. U. S. A. , has
received no further Information than con
veyed In the telegram from the War depart
ment on Monday at midnight. So for as the
department now knows the state troops will
bo mustered In at Lincoln. Lieutenant
George Williamson of the Eighth cavalry ,
U. S. A. , carne In from Fort Mcadc , S. D. ,
during the morning. He has just come from
li'a famous regiment of troopers , and bin
bvowned appearance Indicates that he has
scon considerable campaigning for a young
ofllcer. He has been appointed quartermaster
for the Nebraska troops by the War depart
ment , and during the afternoon went to
Lincoln to assume charge of the commissary
dco.vtmcnt there. He was accompanied by
Lieutenant Eager of the First regiment ,
Nebraska National Guard , who Is acting co
quartermaster of the state troops until they
arc mustered Into the service of the United
States.
ARRANGEMENTS FOR MUSTER.
Dr. Koerper of Fort Crook , chief surgeon
of the Department of the Missouri , has also
gone to Lincoln , and the physical examina
tion ot the men will be begun at once. Ho
will first pass on the qualifications of the
regimental surgeons appointed by the state
and If these are selected by the government
the surgeons will begin their work of ex
amining the men at once. Thus will be
started the process of mustering In and the
addtlonal task of compiling the muster rolls
by companies will be commenced at the
same time.
Several thousand loaves of bread were ;
shipped by Omaha bakers to Lincoln during
the morning. TSils had been purchase ! by
Acting Quartermaster Eager for the troops
that were to bo at Fort Omaha for supper
and the only recourse was to send the bread
to Lincoln. Arrangements had also bscn
made for allowing the state troops
to opcnd their flrat night ! n the barracku
at Fort Omaha. A score of homes had been
hired by the commissary for the use of the
governor and his staff , and will probably
be paid for by tbe stale aa though used.
It In the opinion of the army officers at
the Department of the Missouri that the
Nebraska Guard will never be moved out
of the state. ald coe of them this mornIng -
Ing : "The troops are ordered to be mus
tered In.p.t Lincoln. Further than that no
Instructions have been Issued. It Is my
opinion , however , that the troops will never
Ccavc the state. With the cruohlsg blow
dealt the enemy by Admiral Dawey the
did of the war appears In sight. I have
no doubt but that a battle between the two
Atlantic fiquadrona will result In the same
way , ami expect to see the regular army
Invade Cuba within a we k. The
state tro&ps wl'l probably be hel I
In reserve , hut I dubt If the/ will beused. .
I .have heard some talk of sending troops
j from San Francisco to the Philippine Islands
I to assist Dewey In holding the Islands , -but I
.rather question whether It will be done. If
It Is , probably about 1,000 troops wouli be
sent over , and these would most likely be
the state guards of California and Oregon ,
because of their proximity to the ports from
which they would sail. Dewey might oeed
a regiment or two to help him hold the Is
lands for an Indemnity , but even should
they go over there they would not be sta
tioned there very long. It would make a
nice trln for the bys. "

There isn't a IIOUPO in nil America that will sell you
a.worBted suit as cheap as The Nebraska will today.
Worsteds are high. Nearly a year ago they commenced to
advance and they haven't got through advancing yet.
They will be higher before they are lower. Notwithstanding
" "
standing this we"aTo"Belling today suits of pure worsted
for $0.50 , $7.00 , $8.00 , $8.75 , $9.00 , $11.00 and $12.00 a
suit for fine goods. Amongst them are some of the best
styles of the best makers in the country and somu of the
handsomest patterns ever shown. When you come to
think that worsteds have advanced almost 80 per cent
since a year ago and that some of these prices are lower
than last year you will probably wonder how we got
them and why wo are selling them so cheap. Well , we
don't blame you for wondering , but say , the Spaniards
wondered how Dewey got past the batteries at Manila ,
and they'll probably be wondering one of those days
what else your Uncle Samuel has got up his sleeve. In
meantime we want you to look at the great worsted suits
at ten dollars and the marvelous ones at six dollars and
a half.
