NEW YORK, April 15. (SpeclaU-Hcnry
Clews, head of the banking house of Henry
Clows & Co., writes:
Prices have shown reactionary symptoms
iliirltiB the Inst week, owlmr more to a
fcenslblo disposition to take prof ts than to
nny pronounced change In the Knc;n'
situntlon. Tho approach of tho Knstcr
holidays somewhat tended to restrict trn'is
nctlons, especially on London account,
where the possibility of unfnvornblo news
from tho Transvual during a four days
suspension of business naturally checked
speculative operations.
Tho condition of tho stock market con
tinues favorable, and It Is noticeable that
efforts for tho rise are much moro success
ful than those for the full. At the moment
tho market Is largely under tho Inllucnce
of professional manipulators, and the ma

should not be overlooked, la the possibility
of inconveniently larse sums bclnc locked

tho operation of tho Internal revenuo law

ClaRO has estimated a surplus of t70.O0O.OW
for the llscal year ending June w, iwu, ana
JS2.O0O.O0O for tho fiscal year ending 11)01.
It Is needless to point out tho Injury not
merely to Wall street, but to what Is vastly
morn Imnortnnt. tho legitimate business In
terests of the country, If funds nro allowed

H mlKht tie possible for the secretary to
deposit a largo portion of these accumula

erlng the present state of the public prcju
dice, this method would doubtless expose
the administration to tho silly chargo of
favoritism to tho banks and ralso an issue
that Is best avoided. There Is but one true
course and thnt Is for concress at this ses

receipts nnd expenditure.. A larKo surplus

they must necept the responsibility for

Condition of Iliilli'oml.
Tho course of the rallrond share market
amply conllrms the ndvlco given In these
letters thnt railroad shares should bo pre
ferred above the Industrials. American
railroads were never In such sound condi
tion as today, sound both llnnnclnllv and
jihyslojllly. Nearly all havo passed through
mo reorganization process; tney are man
aged by professional railroad men, not
stock speculators; they aro honestly man
aged nnd running nt the lowest cost per
mllo In their history, while manv of the In
dustrials nro running at their lnrsest ratio
01 expense. ABiun 1110 rauroaus nave many
fiourccs of Income nnd their gains being
less excessive than the Industrials nre less
likely to suffer shrinkage when business
quiets down. Thero Is no gainsaying the
Ftntement thnt American railroad slmtes
offer tho safest and soundest Investments
of nny available. Somo of tho Industrial
shares aro good of course, but they nre
closely held and are likely to show far
moro uepieciaiion wnen ino next down
ward movement cornea than good railroad
Enures.
Tho future of tho market will nrnlinlilv

CHICAGO. April II. Local sentiment nnd
conditions governed tho grain markets to

prlco of hogs. May wheat closed un
changed, Mny corn i0Hc up nnd May
onts ViGHo lower. Provisions closed from
20o Improved lit pork to 2U4c up In May
lard.
May whent onened sifmc depressed rrom
Thursday at UGUc to CCc nnd ndvanced to

from Thursday. Instead of the stop-loss
selling which mnny had looked for at this
point commission houses were nblo to pro
duce many buylnB orders which had been
lying around for weeks, under tins stimu
lus nnd the strength of corn nnd provisions,
together with n mild reiteration of tho
dnmnge reportH from Frunce, tho mlvnnco
took plnco without a mntcrlnl setback.
Considering tho closing of many markets
nnd tho curtailment of ne'.VB the session
was fairly active. Monday's stntlstici nro

but not strikingly so, Tho enrlv loss wiih

Tho corn mnrknt onened rnjtr. AIiiV 'i??
Uc lower at 3SS.5j3S4c to M'MtiS2. Tho In
fluences were purely local, thero PcIiik noth
ing in tno way or news to stimuiato ino
market and the slilnnlntr business was un
important. A prominent speculator whoso
movements are closely watched and who
was believed to have dumped out somo long
stuff, was on the floor nnd denied that ho
had been a seller. Instead ho bought openly
and with this example and tho strength of
provisions in consideration others on inc
floor of tho 'chunge Jolnod the nnks of
tho purchasers. Mny acnordlnalv milled

Membiribip,
PR-SID-NT BURGESS UP FOR SECRETARY
.lllnnrlt) .Seen In It the Dlnln tennitlon
of (lie C'oinliliin tlon Now In
Control of School
Affairs.
Ocaslp In school board circles Is pro
ceeding on tho lino of the Impending re
organization of tho board and the filling of
prospective vacancies,
One vacancy has already been filled by
tho present board In tho wlectlon of Mem
ber Levy to tako the place of Mr. Irey,
whcoo seat was declared vacant becauso of
absence from eucccsslvo meetings. It Is now
reported that Mr. Cowlo has been brought
to tho point of yielding to tho pressure
for hlo resignation and thnt his place will
bo made vacant by Its acccptanco nt an
early nicotlng. Tho ltillucnco brought to
eccuro Mr. Cowle'e retirement from tho
board Is wild to bo an assurance thnt no
further steps will bo taken In prosecuting
him for tho alleged deals exposed by tho
school board detectives.
Tho eubstltutlon of a now member for
Mr. Cowle, according to current stories, Is
preliminary to other changes In the per
sonnel of tho board tho lat of July, when
President Ilurgesa Is expected to resign to
compoto for the place now occupied by Sec
retary Dlllan, which Is n salaried position
considerable responsibility.
It Is nlso posslblo that Mr. Thomas, who
hns been appointed city prosecutor, will re
ign In tho course of a few months. When
Mr. Thomas was candldato for pollco Judgo
ho mado public announcement that he did
not bellevo In holding two positions at
tho eamo tlmo and that If elected he would
retlro from tho school bonrd. Ho will prob
ably retain his membership, however, until
after tho annual election of teachcrB and
officers In order to look after tho Interests
somo of his particular friends. His term
would explro at tho end of tho year In any
event, so that n resignation In July would
cut It short only a few montho.
DIITerenecH of Opinion.
This gossip Is naturally causing some talk
among the members of tho school board in
and out of tho controlling combination. Said
ono of tho members of the dominant ma-
orlty:
"I am not at liberty to say much about
tho Impending changes, but this much I can
say that It any vacancy occurs wo will
try to fill It with somo substantial taxpay
lng citizen who will contrtbuto to the ele
vation of tho standard of tho school board.
Wo had this In vlow when wo elected Mr.
Levy, ono of tho prominent business men of
tho city, and I havo not heard a slnglo
complaint. Wo havo the opportunity of
naming men for vacancies who will secure
n rcnomlnatlon next fall If our cholco Is wloe
and In that way wo will 'build up a school
board which will bo a credit to the city."
On tho other hand, a member of tho mi
nority expresses himself In a somewhat dif
ferent manner: "AH theso changes, said
he, "aro simply a part of tho schemo of the
combine In control of tho board for tho
purposo of furthering tho Interests of cither
Its own members or favorites. Tho com
bination seems to havo been put up for tho
purpeso of protecting Architect Latenser
and you may bo suro will put no one on the
beard who Is not n Latenser man. Another
thing they aro after, of course, fs to gratify
President Burgess' ambition to occupy tho
position of paid secretary. I do not bellevo
tho combination will last very long, no mat
ter how many now men aro Injected Into
tho board. It started In with nlno or ten
members at tho beginning of tho year, but
two or thrco havo already 'been alienated
and because tho combination sees Itself
falling to pieces It finds It necessary to
capturo Mr, Cowlo's vote. After the fight
It has mado upon him It would 'not do to
tako him into tho combination, so they will
try to havo him glvo way to somebody who
would bo a moro acceptable associate."

NEW MISSION FOR ALUMNI
(rniliiiiten of the IIIkIi School Desire
to Knter n turner Field of
l)NOf UlllfNM,
Conotderablo Interest has been aroused
among the nlumnl of tho Omaha High school
by talk of n reorganization of tho Alumni
association. It hps 'been felt for a long
tlmo that this Institution has not been as
strong a factor as It should bo in caring
for tho Interests not only of Its members,
but of tho school on tho hill as well. No
blame attaches to anyone in particular, but
thero has been a gradual decllno of Interest
among tho older alumni nnd tho present
offlcors feel that It would bo well If some
schemo might bo devised whereby n stronger
and clceer union might bo formed.
Somo Ideas on the subject havo already
been broached, among others an association
meeting monthly nnd having somo program,
social or otherwise. It has been suggested
that tho meetings bo held at tho city hall
and pcsslbly this could bo dono. An alumni
day at tho High school, when tho graduates
could feel that they wero guests of tho
school and as visitors rcnow old associa
tions could lie devised. A llvo Interest In
tho school and Its nffalrs might bo a potent
factor In holding a new association to
gether. Thoso High school teachers who aro
alumni aro talking of a meeting to discuss
thlu project. It wero not a .bad plan If the
other members of tho teaching forco who
aro alumni should also meet for this pur
pose. To push this plan much energy Is
needed, but It Is felt that the energy Is
present, though In a Bomowhat latent form,
Somo have suggested an annual banquot
as befitting tho dignity and scope of the
alumni.
Tho graduating claps Is taking an Inter
est in this matter nnd may provo a potent
factor in furthering tho affair. A strong
and united effort on tho part of tho alumni
may prove of lasting benefit not only to
tho High school, 'but to other Interests of
tho city of Omaha no well.

"Dill' McCune, aide to Colonel William F.
Cody, accompanied by fifty redskins of tho
great Sioux tribe, furnished tho curious
minded pcoplo who Invariably hover about a
railroad station nt "train tlmo" on Sunday
at tho smaller towns, a unique exhibition
on Sunday. In two special cars Mr. McCuno
was carrying his Sioux warriors to New
York, whero they will begin rehearsal for
tho annual season of "IluHalo Dill's Wild
West" show. Their route lay through the
northern part of Nebraska, along tho Elk
horn railroad, and nt each town tho Indians
regaled tho depot loungers and passengers
with their warwhoops and cries.
Tho .Indians boarded tho train nt HtiBh
vllle. That town was nswarm with Indians
from tho Pino Rldgo reservation, who had
congregated to glvo their relations a royal
send-off. Tho tracks wero lined ns far ns
tho eye could see with tepees, In front of
which bright fires wero burning, nnd when
tho trnln nrrlved shortly after midnight to
escort tho Indians to tho east a great con
clave was held. The stillness was pene
trated by tho weird, hideous cries which the
Indians Indulged In. Passengers In tho
sleeper who had retired wero startled and
eomo believed that tho train was being
raided. Finally tho Indians wero safely
aboard tho train and as It started awny tho
farewell lamentations of thoso left behind
mado a vivid Impression upon tho minds
of thoso who heart tho cries and witnessed
tno Bcenrs of tho parting. Whenever a stop
was mado tho warriors took a fiendish do-
light In a seeming endeavor to raloo the
roof of their car with their vocal demonstra
tions. 'I consider that I havo tho best crowd
of Indians that ever Joined Colonel Cody's
'Wild West' aggregation," said Mr. McCune.
"Thero Is no disputing tho fact that they
aro rcprosentntlvcB of tho 'big, brawny typo,
characteristic of tho Sioux tribe. In tho
'bunch I havo flvo squaws and a papooso or
two. Moro than half of this number havo
been with our show before, and for this
reason I ara getting into our training
grounds rather later than tho other attrac
tions. The Indians, however, will not need
a great deal of rehearsal.
"After a couple of weeks' rehearsal In
Drcoklyn wo will open our season at Madison
Squaro garden In fv'ew York. Wo will ap
pear at Urooklyn, 'boston, Philadelphia and
then go on tho roadkuntll wo open at tho Pan-
juiiuriuii expuHition af uuuaio, i no report
that we aro to go- to (Paris for tho expo
sition Is unfounded.'1 '
Mr. McCuno was.accompanled from Itush-
vlllo to New York by his wife. They ex
pect to return tol Onlaha for their Usual
winter's vacation In November.

It Is not so much what, tho newspapers
say, as what neighbor' .says to neighbor, or
friend to friend, that h,'as brought Chambor

Into such general use. It Is ns natural for
pcoplo to express their' gratitude after using
this remedy as It Is for water to flow down

From a Nebraska veldt Johann Schmld-
dlapel trekked to Omaha, arriving Saturday
night. Ho disposed of a number of products
of his farm, put up at a hotel and on Easter
Sunday took ft stroll along by Missouri
pprult. Ho might have Just stepped out of
a South African laager, as fnr ns nppenr
ancen went. His hlrsuto auxiliaries were
ns wild nnd untamed as any that over
crossed tho Vaal.
Ilelng In n mood In keeping with tho day
ho sought Information of a. denizen of the
kraal as to tie whereabouts of a house of
worship. Tho Inquiry, It happened, was
addressed to one of Anglo-Saxon Uncage.
"Your'e a bloomln' nlco ono to be hask

sneered tho ono accosted, "You better go
back to Hafrlca and Join the savages again.
You're no good bin a civilized country."
Although tho speaker may not havo been
n representative ono of his race, his words
aroused tho blood of tho descendant of a
follower of William tho Silent. Hln ro
Jolndcr was so tinged with Dutch hauteur
that tho sou of Britain was constrained tq
order him to move on.
"You own tho street, hey?" asked the
farmer.
'Mosey on now, Oom Paul," said tho
other, making a threatening move.
But Schmlddlapcl was angered now. Ho
stopped and faced the Briton, as Immovable)
as was Croujo for ten dayt, at Paardeburg.
His racial enemy, in whoso eyes was tho
leer of Intoxication, advanced toward him.
"Don't you try on making mo go," lio
said.
The Britisher had picked up a stone. Ho
hurled It with better aim than distinguished
hla countrymen along tho Tugela, for It
struck tho burgher on tho chin. What Btruck

Tonight tlio new city council will hold It3
8C"J f,a,01n ani' cx(',c,, ,th.Bt J?"1!;0,
hit ot buolntfls will bo tmnanctcd. Thero
is a rumor that Johnston will father an
ordtnnnco which will startle eomo porsoni, t
but what tho naturo of this ordtnnnco Is
hns not been mado public. I
Johnston was named by Mayor Kelly ns
ono of tho membcra of tho finance com- J
mlttee, but ho stated in open session that
he would not torvc. Mayor Kelly asked him .
to give his reasons, but this Johtuton re
fused to do, and tho mayor propcaes to
hold Johnston lo his appointment.
In caso Mr. Johnston refuses to servo on
tho flnanco committee or on nny othor com
mittees to which ho hnd been appointed It
Is likely that steps will bo taken to- removo
him from ofllce. In speaking of Johnston's
attitude a former democratic city olllclal
oald that Johnston was doing all ho could
to throw discredit upon tho present re
publican city administration and that ho
uhould bo called down "good and hard." As
for his refusing to serve on tho flnanco com
mlttco this democrat said that lit his. opinion
In caso of persistent refusal Johnston
should bo disciplined by tho council. In
plain terms, ho should bo Impeached and
removed from olllce. Other democrats talk
In tho snmo way, which goes to show that
the better element of domosracy docs not
bellevo In tho moves Johnston Is making.
It is presumed that tonight another effort
will bo made to secure lha continuation of a
councilman to tako tho vacant seat of Kelly.
Just what Mayor Kelly's p'.ttns aro no ono
seems to know, but It la possible ho will
again submit the name of C. C. Clifton. If
Mr. Clifton Is not confirmed this time It Is
llkoly that other names will bo presented.
Scmo changes In tho departments will
llkoly bo made. Tho alleys nro filthy nnd
tho sanitary committee of tho city now de
mands the attention of the chlof executive.
A sanitary Inspector will soon bo nppolntcd,
ns well ns n garbngo master, and then tho
work of cleaning tlio city will bo commenced
In earnest.
Expert Accountant Ileck worked nil dny
yesterday on tho city treasurer's books nnd
promised that the balance sheet would bo
ready tonight. His report, howovcr, will bo
delayed for a day or two, but tho amount
of money to bo turned over by Mr. Uroad-
wcll will bo reported to tho council to
night. It Is expected that tlio transfer of
the offlco and funds will ho mado on Tues
day.
Street Cnr Improvement.
Members of tho South Omaha Commercial
club are greatly pleased with tho result of
tho Interview with President Frank Mur
phy of tho Omaha Street Railway company.
According to ngreement. President Murnhy
and General Manager Smith will visit South
Omaha today to Investigate, the demands
for better servlco and an extension of tho
present system. Thero Is nn active demand
for an extension of the Q street lino nnd
also for a cross-town line. Tho people In
tho cast portion of tho city demand tho
oxtcnslon of tho Thirteenth street line, and
a request for a better grade of rolllug stock
hns nlso been made. Under the direction of
President Flynn nnd Secretnry Wntklno, tho
ground will bo thoroughly looked over by
Messrs. Murphy nnd Smith, nnd It Is hoped
thnt Improvements will soon follow tho
visit.

If there Is anything In street reports, har
mony Is an absent factor among tho demo
crats on tho Board of Education Just now.
On Mny 7 tho board will meet to roorganlzo
njid tho three recently elected republican
nirabors will take their seats. Tho board
will then consist of lx democrats and thrco
republicans. As there Is a lack of harmony
among tho democratic members It Is re
ported that Fltzroberts and Brennan nro
trying to socuro support from the three
republican members. Just how successful
thoy 'will bo remains to bo seen. Jim Bulla
Is being pushed for president of tho board
and ho appears to havo a goad chance of
winning, as It will bo impossible this year
to elect a republican president. It Is ex
pected that thero will bo some lively times
when tho board reorganizes.
