Russell of the Lockawnnna nytitora was In conference today with a dele gation representing all the trainmen and conductors on the line relative to a mileage system of wages. Thia delegation IB the one which had waited upon President Trueadale In Now York and who were referred to Mr. Russell with the statement that bis action In the matter would ; bo endorsed. The me-n under the old Lackawanna management worked on n regular day scale of wages , but with ihe reforms instituted by President Truoedalo they are eeeklng the standard Rock Island mileage system. The schedule was presented to 'Mr. ' Russell a few days ago , but there are points of difference to ba adjusted ! through the meetings with the committee. Those meetings are expected to continuo through several dayu and the out come la uncertain. Traimfer of AVl coii ln Central. MILWAUKEE , July 18. Receivers Henry P.

Collecllnur City Itcnt * . Comptroller Weetberg has sent out no- Utes to all persona and companies occupy ing properly of the city under lease to pay UD their rent In arrears. These lenses cover rortlon * of streets and other city property , leased to the lifters at a nominal rental , the leases being designed mainly to preserve - servo the cltv's title to the property. But the amount ot money duo the city on them Is now about $1,000 , and it Is ( be Intention of the comptroller to enforce the collection ot this money. Many of the leaseholders have had the Idea that after the flrst payment they would never bo called upon to make nny more. RELEASES MRS. FITZGERALD .Turr In Hartley Cnae Dccldon She Vt'nn Infinite nml IIoliU the Other SnrcticK. The verdict of the jury In ( he Bartley bond case was reached about 10 p. m. Monday and placed In a scaled envelope , to bo opened In the presence of the court yesterday morning. When court convened thcro wore lew auditors , as the Instructions of the court left nothing to be decided upon except the question of Mm. Fitzgerald's sanity , and interest In the case had lapsed , EVen some ot the bondsmen were absent , and none ot the attorneys manifested any Interest In the result except Mr. Mannhan , who was Mrs. Fitzgerald's special counsel. The verdict woa read by the clerk without delay. It Found a judgment against the bondsmen for 1040,382.43 , but released Mrs. Fitzgerald on the ground that she was not In a condition n which she know what she was doing when she signed the bond. Judge Fawcctt dis charged the Jury , and Mr. Manahan received congratulations , while the other attorneys 'or ' the defense lugubriously began preparing to fllo their motion for a new trial. This will bo presented ng soon as the papers can bo prepared. As It Is conceded that' this will bo over ruled , all parties are preparing for a tussle n ( ho supreme court , each side being confi dent ot eventual success. The attorneys for the bondsmen think they can secure a re treat on Judge Fawcett's action In in structing the Jury , while Attorney General Smyth believes that the victory has been won and that the only result ot the appeal will bo a confirmation ot the judgment ot the rower court. In this coneotlon it Is sug gested that the appeal bond that will bo given In this case will probably be the big gest bond that was ever given In the courts of this district. It must be big enough to ) rotect nearly 1700,000 , and it Is anticipated that the attorney general will Insist that It must bo gllt-cdgcd. II ldn Knrtchncr lint a. In the trial of Fred Myers , the hackman , charged with endeavoring to Intimidate a state witness in the case against Charles tlooro , Judge Gordon held that William Cartchner was not n witness at the time the objectionable remark was made by My- ors , lie not having been subpoenaed. The state set up In Its complaint that on July la , after the coroner's Inquest over the re mains of John DeMollns , at which Kartch- ncr had been the most Important witness on the part of the state , Myers met him on the street and advised him not to repeat ho story or he , Kartchner , would be In Do- molln'a place. Kartchner testified to this on he stand , as did also one other witness. The lefenso moved to dismiss the case on the ground that Kartchner was not a witness or the state at the time and consequently nothing that was said to blm could be ob- ectlonable. Judge Gordon dismissed the case. GUARDS HAVEANEW ARMORY _ _ Will Occnny CrelKhton Hnll , Where Their QnnrterN Will lie Ilniiil- nomc'ljr FnrnlHucd.

These rooms will bo handsomely furnished .nd will bo In use'by the members and their rlends nt all times. The larce hall has been secured for drill ono evening in each week. The organization is now In a pros perous condition and has upwards of fifty actlvo members. .Monday . night the Guards vlll give an excursion on the steamer Jacob Rlohtman to Florence in which a largo number of their friends have been invited o participate. Dr. Perlii Will llend Children' ) , Ilniuln. Today being South Omaha chlldrcn'E day and Dr. Cart Louis Porln , the famous palm- st in charge of the Temple of Palmistry nt the exposition , beinga great lover of children , ho has decided to read the hands of the little ones on this day only for 10 cents. Parents should not fall to take ad vantage of this great opportunity to know what the future has In store for their chil dren nnd should provide tholr Ilttlo ones with a dime , that they may ontar the tom- ) le of Palmistry and there ho toll by Dr. ? erln for what they will be best fitted In Ifo and what Dame Fortune proposes to ineto out to them. Dr. Porln has had eminent success In the reading of children's hands and has read ho hands of many of the little ones of ) maha and vicinity during his visit tere ast spring. Parents should not miss this golden opportunity and every child should be furnished with 10 contu to visit Dr. Perin. UnnpKnl ItemuliiH at Miller Park. The injunction preventing the city from ocatlng an emergency hospital on the tract of land northeast of the city leased for the > urpose will not effect any Immediate change In the plans of the advisory board. It was not the intention of the health commissioner : o have the one patient at the Miller park lospltal removed to the new location. He Is : o remain where he Is until his illness Is over. So far as Is now known , the board will not make any effort to relocate the hos pital until the case In court Is decided and any cases of Infectious disease arising be fore that time will probably have to bo : akcn to Miller park. The petition on which the Injunction was granted states that a hospital on the Forbes property would be a menace to the health of the community on account of a school building and ether build ings near the place. It was claimed that the school building was only four blocks distant. The members of the advisory board ore still very well satisfied with their action nnd do not think that at present It could be im proved upon. ( Announcement N.

CLOSING OF FOREST RESERVE THE REASON Inferior Department Force * Klock- innntcrn 4o Itcmovc Sheep from 1'oront Itenerve Union I'nrlflc Sell * Tlioiinniidi of Acre * . The business of the Union Pacific land de partment has been largely Increased within a short time past and the principal reason for this augmentation assigned by the ofll- clals of that department Is the recent order of the Department of the Interior forbidding sheepmen permlralon to feed their flocks on the Ulntah ( Wyoming ) forest reserve , which , prior to this order , had furnished an abun dance of grazing for the extensive sheep In terests In that section of Wyoming. In order to furnish feed for their flocks now the sheep owners have of necessity been compelled to secure suitable range and the lands In the region of Summit , Weber , 'Morgan and Illch counties , Utah , nnd Ulntah county , Wyoming , controlled by the Union Pacific land depart ment have been strictly In demnnd. Within the past two weeks this company has closed sales and leases , principally with the sheep owners in the counties of Utah and Wyoming before mentioned , aggregating over a quarter of a million ot acres. Prac tical sheep men have long realized the neces sity of controlling their own range and for some time past have been purchasing land in small quantities hero and there , , but never icforo has such a largo acreage been dis posed of within so short n time for sheep ranging purposes as that which Is now re ported by the Union Pacific. Among the principal Utah purchasers are ha Dcseret Live Stock company , Condlo 3ro3. , Hatch Bros. , Forest Stlllman , Echo and and Cattle company , Alfred Brim , 3rlgham Sellers , Ncphl Husklnson , W. J. Lludscy , Hyrum Norberg and James Chcsnoy. On Wednesday of lost week a deal was closed with John C. Mackay , president of the Ulntah County ( Wyoming ) Wool Growers' association , for 130,000 acres ot land , situ ated near Evanston and Hlllard , Wyoming , and along the headwaters of Bear river , Black's forks and Smith's forks , Summit county , Wyoming. This Immense tract of land lies just north of the Ulntah forest re serves and enables the Utah sheep owners to run their herds where there Is a great sufficiency of feed and thus make them Inde pendent of the privileges which they form erly enjoyed when the forest recerve was open for grazing. The rush for this land docs not seem to 30 approaching an end , either. The general nnd department hero has Just received ap plications from Hcber Bennlon for 5,559 acres In Summit county , Utah , nnd George Canning has purchased 2,558 acres In the same locality. Hyrum Norberg , ono of the ) lg western sheepmen , lias just purchased 5,120 acres In Ulntah county , Wyoming , and 12,800 in Summit county , Utah. The present month gives promise of being a record breaker in the sale of land by this department. Last month was considered ex ceptionally good , when about 78,000acres n Nebraska , Wyoming and Utah were dis posed of , but this mark has already boon msscd by the sales so far In July , with a couple of weeks yet to hear from. Land deals which are being consummated now , however , ore not confined solely to the states of Wyoming and Utah , where the shoopmen are anxiously gobbling up every acre which they can obtain. The company reports a healthy boom of agricultural lands n central Kansas. Applications and pur chasers for this land are coming principally from Iowa and Illinois. There Is now pending a deal of consider able magnitude , involving a body of 20,000 acres of land in Lincoln county , Nebraska. Little doubt is entertained as to its con summation. The Intending purchasers are olned together In an eastern syndicate and nro looking for land suitable for a large cat- lo ranch. They have Investigated this Lin coln county land nnd are highly pleased with It. As a matter of fact , It hog always > ecn considered of value for agricultural purposes , but the price quoted this syndi cate IB on the basis of grazing land valua- lon. LION DODGING TAME SPORT SiimucI Cardoiin Icure * III * Sphere < o Trr Illn Hand ivltli ihe Gentler Sex. Mrs. Dolly Martin , wife of a musician at tbo exposition grounds , and Samuel Car- dona , lion tamer of Hagenback's wild ani mal shows , are locked up in the city jail charged with being suspicious characters. t Is said that the couple have been living .ngethcr and that the arrest was made at the request of the woman's husband. Mr. and Mrs. Martin quarreled not long ago about a valuable cornet whlcb Mrs. Mar tin had given her husband for a wedding present. The trouble led to an eatrange- nent , and the woman bsgan to receive at tentions from the lion tamer whom the met at the exposition grounds. Monday afternoon while Cardona and Mrs. Martin were driving on fit. Mary's avenue .he borse became frightened and ran away , The vehicle was overturned , throwing the occupants to the ground. Both the man and the woman were badly bruised. Tbo woman's husband heard of the runaway and bavlng been seeking his wife for eome ; lme , ' bad both her and Cardona arrested. Mrs. Martin will bo charged with the theft ot the cornet. Tbo instrument is said to iave cost $ % . Mrs. Martin pawned It to ic- cure tbo money to take the ride with Car dona Monday afternoon. She admits bar ns borrowed $13 on the Instrument and gave the ticket to the police , but ahe maintain ! that the cornet Is now her property , Martin bavlng lost bis right to It. As no one appeared to file a complaint a gainst Mrs. Martin and Cordona , both wore discharged In the afternoon by the police , who had nothing against them on their own account. WASTE PAPER BOXES COMING Slen the Ordinance Author- ixtntr and fiovernluir Them. Mayor Moorea has signed the ordinance au thorizing the location of iron waste paper boxes on the street corners and governing tholr use , and as tha council has already awarded a contract for the placing and main tenance of the same , they are expected to ap pear soon. The ordinance declares It unlawful to scatter on the street any waste paper or fruit peelings and compels pedestrians to deposit such matter in the receptacles provided for the purpose. It ia unlawful to put in the boxes any sweepings , ashes , garbage or other like heavy or bulky matter. Under the contract , the city wll not be at any ex pense to put in or maintain the boxes' ' , but on the contrary will derive a revenue from them , the contractors paying 12 per cent of the gross receipts from tbo advertising on the boxes to the city.

Heller says that he was hired by a repre sentative of the Omaha Bridge & Terminal company to count the \vacon loads of dirt ind to keep a record of their weights as : hey were dumped at Fourteenth and Nicholas streets. He claims that Hughes made It very disagreeable for him and did everything he could to start a tight. Finally 10 says Hughes came up to him while he was sitting down nnd asked him what ho meant by keeping such close tab on the vork. Heller claims he responded : 'Huchcs you need not worry. I will not glvo you more than you haul nor will I cut your load down. " At this he says flughcs kicked him on the rlcht forearm , fracturing ono of the bones. Then while tloller was on the ground ho says Hughes struck him two or three times In the face , causing the kaleidoscopic colors which It reflected > whcn he came to the station.
