Captain William W. Marsh, president of
tho Union Nutlonul bnnk nml treasurer of
tbc Omaha Street Hallway company, tiled
Tuesday at Nassau, Dnhama Islands. A
cablegram received nt I lie Union National
Lank Rbout 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon
contained tlin brief statement that Captain
Marsh wn dead and that Ills aon Allen
' Would nail for No- York nt, onco with tho
remains.
Cuptuln Marsh, rccompanicd by his
Hon Allen, left Omaha about three
months ago for ' an ocean trip that
was expected to benefit tho banker's
falling health. For many years the
captain had been Buffering with consump
tion and It was thought that a change of
rllmato and a lone rest from tho heavy
business responsibilities that burdened him
would restore him to health.
MnlTorcil fur Mini)' Ynir.
Captain Marsh had been a sufferer from
lung troubles for many year, but the dls
Omaha Street Car company, which operated
the horse car line. Ho was at one time In
terested In the milling business and in the
Wyoming Stage company.
At tho time of the consolidation of the
street railway lines of the city Captain
Marsh became a director and was elected
treasurer of tho reorganized company.
In 1SG3 Captain Marsh was married to
Miss Flora M. Atwood of Ida county, Iowa.
Of this union were born four sons, Charles,
Frank, William ond Allen, who reside In
this city.
General a ml Mrs. Manderson of Omaha
were at Nassau on March 27, but they may
have left there before tho death of Cup
tain Marsh, as they Intended to be In
Omaha by the middle of this month.
When William W. Mnrsh came to the ter
ritory of Nebraska, the only mall facilities
of western Iowa and Nebraska were tlioo
afforded by occasional steamboats, which
passed along the Missouri rler. Tho previ
ous year the United States government
had let a contract for the carrying of malls
between Council Illuffs and Dcnvor and
hnd begun to Increase the mall facilities
by contracting with stage lines for carrying
mall. Ilndloy Johnson had the contract
for canylng the malls from the l'latto river
to Dakota City. Hcnuett Dros. hnd tho
contract for carrying the mall from tho
south line of the torrltory to the Platte
river. In 183G It was decided that tho set
tlements north of Dakota City should be
served by n stage line and Mr. Marsh he
was not called captain then secured the
contract, lie put on a dally stage line
which ran to Yankton, D. T., and trans
ported passengers and mall between those
points. The proximity of tho country along

COMES TO AN UNDERSTANDING OF AFFAIRS
to turn his nttcntion In that direction
again. At tho time he entered that busl
ness again the Black Mills country was at
trading attention. Boomers from the Mis
sourl river had recently been run from the
Indian reservation and still more recently
tho United States had acquired title to the
land and had thrown It open to the set
tlement of the miner and furtuer. Dead
wood and n dozen other aspiring towns had
been staked off and hundreds of people were
entering thu land" by wagon. At this time
there was no mall or stage route Into the
new country. The nearest railroad point
was Sidney, on the Union Pacific. In con
ncctlon with James Stephenson, Captain
Marsh established tho first stage route be
tween Dcadwoijd and the railroad. Tho
stage of this line was tho first to enter
Deadwood.
About this time tho Wyoming Stage com
pany wn3 organtzod nnd Captain Marsh be
came a prominent stockholder and director.
This company operated. Ilhes from the
Union 1'aclfic road to different parts of
the territory ami was discontinued only
when tho railroads made tho lines un
profitable. In tho early '70s Captain Marsh was
electeil to tho city council, which position
he held one term nnd then became presi
dent of the school board of the city, hold
ing this place for one term.

Lieutenant Governor Savage will become
governor of Ncbraskn on or about May 1.
,t least this announcement has been
made by tho llcutcnnnt governor as the re
sult of a recent conference with Governor
Dietrich. The coming governor discussed
affairs of stato without hesitation when ho
arrived In Omaha Tuesday on his way to
South Omaha, where ho was tendered a
banquet Tuesday night.
'As for tho reports that 111-fccllng ex
isted between tho governor nnd myself,
said Mr. Savage, "there la not a word of
truth In them, for wo are on the best of
terms. Twice Mrs. Savage ant! myself nave
been entertained by tho governor, and the
ery best of feeling exists between us.
Yesterday morning tho governor sent word
that he would like to spend a half hour
with me, nnd later ho ramo to my office
and we. discussed the transfer of tho olllcc
of governor.
Governor Dietrich said that ho would
like to have until tho middle of this month
to finish up the business that Is still on
hand, and after that tho office would be at
my disposal. Ho said It I would glvo him
a few days' notice nfter April 15 ho would
pack up and leavo tho office to mo, The
conference was perfectly friendly.
'For my part, I cannot get ready to tnko
tho office before May 1. Ono of my sons has
gono west to look nfter tho nffalrs on a
western. ranch, leaving but ono son at homo
to enro for our business thoro, which,
though small, Is Just as Important to me as
tho private business of any man. I had ex
pected to be at homo this summer to ussist
that son In tho care of our affairs, but this
change will prevent this. Now I must make
some other arrangements nnd It will take
nt least a month to do this. You can safely
say that tho chango will not be mado before
May 1.
"There Is one thing that has gone out In
the reports which Is entirely wrong nnd
which has done a great injustice, nnd that
was tho dragging of Mrs. Savage's name
Into the matter. She has never uttered a
word to any man, woman or child about my
taking the governorship except what she
has said to mo. When sho saw the state
ment In some of the Lincoln nnd Omaha pa
pers that sho was opposed to my taking the
governorship unless I got It right away, and
that sno tnld sue would not move to Lin
coin. It annoyed her. She never mado either
of those statements."

Before thM time Mr. Marsh had told the
route and come to Omaha. Tho Omaha to
which Mr. Marsh came In lfi12 was a
struggling village, but the best town on
the Missouri river above St. Joseph. When
he arrived In the city a ferry boat wps
plylnff between tho Nebraska and the Iowa

satisfactory to the public. In connection
with tho lale C. II. Ilustln. Mr. Marah weni

he secured h!s title of captain. The ferry
was continued for several years.
When tho Union Pacific railroad 'was
located at Council Bluffs and by legal enact

terminus on me iowa fide rerrles were
necessary to transport the cars across the

until one day a friend told her of the won

It was a caso of llfo or death. Of course,
like everyone, she prcforred life, nnd took
Cascarlno, thn great llfo giver, blood puri

astonished her friends by appearing nmong
them as a new woman. Cascarlne was

her Indigestion and constipation and freed !

aflvlilng her friends to use nothing but
Caacarlne.
It Is the only family laxative for men,

Although Important business was to
transacted tho city council failed of
ijuorum last night and an adjournment was
taken until this evening. The question of
dividing tho city into six wards was to
come up, as well as the ordlnauco fixing
the salarlos of the city officials under the
new charter. In tho bill passed by the
legislature the maximum salaries are
named, but tho amount to be paid Is to
be fixed by ordinance. The ordinance readj
to be lntroducod is completod, with the ex
ccpllon of filling In 'th6"aniounts, and this
will be left to tho Judiciary committee. It
Is understood that In n majority of In
stances the maximum salaries will bo paid.
The mnypr can receive $1,500 a year, the
treasurer and tax commissioner the same,
and the clerk $1,200. A deputy clerk at
$000 is also provided for. Thero Is a gen
eral Increase In salaries all along the line,
but no one seems to know Just what tho
judiciary commltteo will do.
Clerk Shrlgley has tho ordinance dividing
tho city into six wards In his porsesslou,
but Its contents will not bo known until
the document 1b read In open session. Un
der tho new law ordinances cannot be rail
roaded through, so that It tho city Is to
be redlstrlcted and tho salaries arranged
for It will bo necessary to hold thiee meet
ings this week, ns the council will meet on
Monday night next to canvass tho vote
cast at tho recent election and issue cer
tificates of election.
Tnx Co in in I mi I nut r Problem,
What to do with tho tax commissioner
is a question which Is bothering tho city
officials. The city offices are crowded, und
unless desk room is found for this new
official in the city treasurer's office It will
doubtless be necessary to rent an outsldo
room. When the oidlunnco Is paused do
fining the duties of tho tax commissioner
and fixing his salary It Is moro than llku'.y
that provision will be niudo for a desk In
tho treasurer's office. Then In odd mo
menta the commissioner will be given tho
privilege of working on the books, hustling
pertonal taxes, and so on. Tho city ofilces,
as now arranged, are Inadequate and moro
room lr. badly needed.
