LINCOLN, Sept. It. (Special Telegram.)
James C. Dahlman, democratic national
committeeman for Nebraska, declares that
the fusion nomination for the supreme
Judgeship will be given to the democrats
nt the conventions to be hel I here Tn's
day and he says that as a compromise both
nominations for membership In tho Univer
sity Donrd of Regents may be Riven to the
populists.
After conferring ngalti today with Chair
man Hall of the state committee and rep
resentatives of the democracy of Douglas
nnd Lancaster counties, .Mr. Dahlman left
tonight for tho western part of Nebraska,
where he will round up the forces for ac
tion In tho stato convention. He will re
turn Sunday or Monday nnd will then open
headquarters In this city When Inter
viewed he said:
"Wo arc looking forward to a good at
tendance at our convention and we believe
that the deliberations In both will be har
monious to a marked degree. It Is as good
ns derided that the democrats will be al
lowed to name tha candidate for supremo
Judge. The nonilnntlons for tho Hoard of
Regents will probable be divided between
the p.irtles. lint both may lie given to tho
populist; There his been some talk of a
plan to hive the democrats and populists
meet In Joint session to make the nomina
tions, hir. I don't think this will be done."
Another prominent democrat who at
tended tho conference Indorsed th state
ments miide by Mr. Dahlman, but lie thought
the Judicial tiomlnntlon would not bo ef
fected without n vigorous skirmish with
the popullRts. Ho predicted the same re
sult, but did not think that nn agreement
could be reached by tho conventions until
10 o'clock In tho livening. Tho most formid
able candidates, he said, are Judges Dufilo,
Hastings ami Hollenbeek, nnd the predic
tion was made that the nominee would bo
one of this trio. Judges Duffle and Hastings
are members of the supreme court commls-
i'
i Ion.

CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 11. The surviv
ing veterans of the greatest war In all tho
annals of history, of the greatest strugglo
for human liberty tho world hns over seen
that Iron gray host of God known ns the
Grand Army of the Republic have ngaln
responded to tho bugle cnll nnd today fell
Into lino as they were wont to do In the
dark days of the civil war. They awoke
this morning to tho sound of rovellle and
long before tho hours of starting the parade
they II led the streets and avenues ndjaccnt
to Caso nnd Euclid avenues, where tho
parndo wan tormed.
Old vctornns prominent In the nffalrs of
the Grand Army of the Republic said it
wns the grsndest parade and the greatest
day the orginlnztlon hns ever seen. In a
seemingly Interminable line tlie different
Grnnil Army of the Republic posts took their
places. Surging masses of people number
ing in the hundreds of thousands lined tho
streets and the housetops nnd took ad
vantage of nvcry available point of view
along tho entire length of the line of parnde.
In tho downtown districts, tho streets In
tersecting nnd ndjaccnt to the lino of
parade, were one struggling mnss of cnger
and expectant humanity. It Is estimated
that nearly 600,000 pcoplo were spectators
of tho magnificent pageant. The line was
over live miles In length and was splendidly
hindlcd, the column moving steadily nnd
with senrcely n halt or n break until tho
entire line had passed the reviewing stand.
Miiri'hrrx Still SI only.
Among tho thousands of nged veterans
who made up tho gallant host there were
scarcely a bnr? half dozen whom the
fatigue of the march caused to fall out be
fore they passed through the living sen of
spectators Into tho court of honor and tho
reviewing stnnd.
Promptly at the hour set for the parade to
move General Leo Rnsslcur, commander-in-chief,
gnvo tho slgnnl and the column
moved forward. Tho solid masses of hu
mnulty which crowded the avenuo from
curb to curb, gnvo wny like the parting
of the wnves nnd the march began.
Tho governors of sevorai states marched
In tho lino with their posts and were proud
to go afoot with their old comrades In tho
old wny. Senator M. A. Hanna caught tho
Infection of tho hour nnd left the reviewing
stnnd to march down tho lino.
Every department ns It paBsed tho court
of honor nnd nenred tho living ling of chil
dren formed upon the grnndstnnd fnclng the
long vtbtu nt tho foot of Uond street wns
greeted with n chorus from tho throats of
thousands of school children composing "tho
Hag," Mingled with the Inspiring strains
of martial music nnd pntrlotlo choruses
wns the cheern of tho populace.
In tin- Iti'vlewliiw Stand.
With General Rassleur In tho reviewing
stnnd wero tho following: Tom L. John
son, General David R. Hunt, General Henry
S. Peck, Adjutant General F. M. Sterret.
M. A. Taylor, Surgeon General Wilklns.
Georgo Stone, department commander of
Colorado; General John C. Black, General
Daniel E. Sickles, Guy T. Gould, past de
partment commander of Illinois; General
Louis WByno of Pennsylvania. General
James Barnott and 'General James A. Kel
fer. The parade was led by mounted police.
Following wero the local grand marshal
of the parade, Captain Russell Burdick, and
his staff.
Next came past commnnders-ln-chlef of
tho Grand Army, in carriages. Then fol
lowed the national council of administra
tion. Only Grand Army posts participated. De
partments marched In the order of seniority,
with Illinois In tho lend, except that Ohio
by courtesy took tho left of the line.
In addition to tho line of veterans, nine
teen bands poured fourth martial music. A
number of women nnd children were ovcr
como In church nnd tnken to the hospital,
but no serious casualty was reported.
It Is expected that the patriotic outburst
of today will be duplicated Thursday after
noon, when a mass meeting will be held 'n
prnlse nnd thanksgiving for the prospective
recovery of President McKlnlev. Senator
Hanna, Mayor Johnson of Cleveland, Gen
eral Rnssleur of the Grand Army. Jud'jc
William 11. D. Young of Canton. Senator
Fairbanks of Indlnnn nnd Rev. Dr. Man
chester, the president's pastor, will ad
dress the meeting.
Qilt-HtluiiN Still to Solve.
There nro two important questions before
the encampment which seem to be verv
much matters of uncertainty the choice for
commander-in-chief and the location of tho
next national encampment. On the latter
point the Denver delegation will present a
esolutlon adopted nt Colorado Springs, Au
gust 2, 1001, to the effect that If the na
tional officers decided to give tho next en
campment to Denver the Department of
Colorado and Wyoming will do all In Its
power to make It n complete success.
On tho choice for commander-lu-chlef the
fight Is very uncertnln. The friends of
General Torrancn of Minnesota are hopeful
that a deadlock may cnuo between General
Stewart and Sickles and thus enable him
to bo the successful candidate. Twenty-five
or 30 per cent of the entire vote Is claimed
for General Torrance, coming from the
west and New England,
How Torriuice Mny Get It.
If thero Is no selection on tho third bal
lot General Torrance, his friends claim, has
n fine show. Missouri Is for Sickles, with
Torranco second choice. Pennsylvania Is
united on General Stewart. Tho result of
tonight's New York caucus was a split, with
twenty-eight votes for General Stowart nnd
nineteen for Pickles, Knnsns voted for
Sickles. Illinois is said to ho divided.
Maryland, California nnd Vermont ore non
committal and n Maine delegate said Gen
eral Torrance was favorably considered.
Ohio's Informal ballot Is snld to have been
nineteen for Sickles and seventeen for
Stowart.
Tho election of officers for the National
Union of ex-Prisoners of War was held
during tho convention of that order todav.
The following officers wero elected to servo
for the next threo yeurs: National com
mander, J. D. Walker, Allegheny. Pa.;
national vice commander. D, G. Ncsbltt.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 11. Tho general
agent of the Santa Fe freight department
today announced that the low "feeder"
rates on corn placed In effect by tho Santn
Fo on August ID would be taken out on
September 17. Tho low rate was in
augurated to benefit the fnrmers, but the
corn from tho east and elsewhere Is bought
up by dealers and sold to the farmers at
prices as high ns prior to tho low rates
being tnodo effective, and the railroad has
decided that tho low rates are a useless
phllantrophy.
BARTLEY OR GILLILAN
(Continued from First Page.)
counts ns county trensurer at the clojo of
his first term In Janunry, 1S92, when, al
though hi books showed thnt he should
have $73,000 on hand, all ho could produce
on demand was $7,31S. The county commis
sioners gave him ten days to exhibit the
balance nnd Stato Treasurer Hartley, who
was one of Barrett Scott's bondsmen, bor
rowed $(0,000 for him In Omaha for one
day, carrying It to O'Neill In person nnd
counting It out before the county commis
sioners. Tho remainder of the money was
advanced temporarily by the banks of
O'Neill and others of Scott's friends. The
discovery of tho trick when the money wai
shipped out the next dny v.-ns followed by
proceedings In ouster fought back nnd forth
In court until finally In July, 1S03, Scott
gathered up what remaining public money
wns within rench nnd suddenly disappeared.
His npprchentlon In Mexico, his extradition
and return to Nebraska, tho sensational
trial and the persistent nnd successful ef
fort of his lawyers to prevent his punish
ment after conviction nro matters of his
tory. In December, lSf4. on an order of
the supremo court reducing his ball ho was
released on bond. Ills liberation proved his
destruction, for on January 1, 1S95, tho
news was heralded that ho had been ;np.
tured by a band of unknown nseallants
while returning with his family to O'Neill
from n visit to tho country and had been
put to death In secret. Ills body was
found later under tho ice In tho waters of
the Niobrara river, but his murderers were
never brought to Justice.
Same .Motive llrhlml It.
Two theories were advnnced at that tlmo
to explain tho killing of narrett Scott, both
of them having many adherents. One wns
that Scott had been dealt out summary pun
ishment by outraged tnxpnyers of Holt
county In resentment of his wholesale
treasury-wrecking and despair of any ad
equate penalty being Inflicted by the courts.
The other was that Scott's murderers were
his former friends and beneficiaries, who
had taken this method of making sure that
the only person who could Involvo them in
tho law's net or make them disgorge tholr
shares of tho booty was forever removed.
So far ns tho Identity of tho Olllllan mur
derers is concerned, tho Lincoln police
seem tp bo nlmost as much In tho dark as
at first. Should they capture the criminals,
of courso nil theorizing will bo set ut
naught and the real motive uncovered. But
from tho present outlook It seems moro
likely that the culprits will never bo lo
cated unless they themselves furnish tho
clew. And until the contrary Is proved,
many people hero will bcllevo that It was
Bartlcy and not Olllllan whom they thought
they were shooting.

Omaha took on n cnrnlvnl tint Inst night
In recognition of the opening of King Ak-Sar-Itcn's
seventh nnnunl fete, hut a sud
den burst of rnln swished down shortly
nfter S o'clock and sent the crowds skurry
Ing for shelter.
The rain came with but little warning and
spoiled whnt would otherwlso have been
a record-breaking first night In point of at
tendance. About 10 o'clock yesterday morning tho
sun blared n rift In n, bank of clouds nnd
tho gencrnl Indications, ns well ns the gov
crnment foreenst, gave promlso of fnlr
weather. Tho cnrnlvnl wns formnlly de
clared open nt 1 o'clock yesterdny nnd the
nftcrnoon nttendanco was remarkably large
for n starter.
Last night at 8 o'clock fully 5,000 people
were lnsldo the enclosure and hundreds of
others surged about tho main entrance
nwattlng ndtnlnslon. It was n Jolly crowd,
headed Mldwaywards, where the deep
voices of the spellers rent tho ozone with
wonderful announcements.
It it I ti Sentti-rn I lie Multitude.
Thirty minutes later, this same Jolly
crowd demonstrated Its antlpnthy to water
by making an exit rush that would do credit
to n wcll-sensoncd foot ball team. The
evening program was necessarily cut short.
"Nothing tut n run of bnd weather enn
prevent the success of this cnrnlvnl," said
Superintendent Get, "for It Is bullded this
year upon n grnnder scnlc than ever before
and wo have right now fully twice tho num
ber of out-of-town visitors that we had at
tho corresponding period last fall. Wo can
only hope thnt tho wenther ninn will be
good to us, for his grace Is all we lack."
It was worth the gate fee to see tho
crowd scamper when the rnln camo down.
"Y-e-o-w!"
Or words to that effect, a few hundred
women exclaimed In conceit, while others
simply tossed their pretty heads and rushed
for exit.
Turnstile Comrily.
Two well-nourished women got tangled
and wedged In one of tho turnstile com
partments. "Why don't you cither come back or go
out?" roared tho crowd.
"Como lu hero nnd try to get out nnd sco
how you llko it," rotortcd tho women.
'What means this boisterous clamor at
bur nates?" cried Superintendent Gctz, but
when he realized tho predicament Into
which the women hnd fnllon his gallantry
overcame his demand for decorum and ho
extended n sympathetic hand.
That's where Gctz mado n mistake, for
he rushed Into tho snme trap that held the
women, nnd then the wedge was tighter
than over.
Meanwhile the rnln bent down on the
waiting crowd and the crowd that is, sec
tions of It said somo sulphur-tinted words.
Hnlf n dozen gunrds nml n pollcemnn un
der direction of Lee McGrcer, boss carpen
ter, at last loosened the refractory turn
stile and tho Incident closed.
The streets last night, except while the
rain was falling, wero crowded nnd It Is
evident nt n glance that tho town even
thus early Is well filled with visitors.
Ki'llpNfN TIipiii All.
With tho posslblo exception of the New
Orleans Mardl Gras, the Ak-Sar-Ben carni
val, with Its electrical pageants nnd othor
features, clearly ecllpsci anything of the
kind in the United States. It Is conceded
by disinterested travelers that the St. Louis
Veiled Prophets, the Kansas City Priests
of Pallas and the autumnal festivities In
other cities are far from being pennant
winners when compared with Omaha's Ak-Sar-Bcn.
Somo ef the booths are quite costly In
equipment, tho exhibitors hnving mndo inv
Ish expenditure. Ono of tho most striking
exhibits on the grounds will bo that of Tho
Omaha Bee, when the finishing touches are
put on. An electrical sign carrying 316
candlo power lamps will shed a dazzling
brilliancy for blocks aud blocks around. On
the Inside of the booth Is an nttractlvo dis
play of photographs from Tho Bee's art de
partment, mado from original negatives.
Art devotees will find this place specially
interesting. Dozens of pictures that have
uover appeared In The Illustrated Boo will
be on exhibition.
An Interesting featuro of Tho Beo's pho
tographic offering Is the display of fine live
stock pictures mado at recent county fairs
for tho Twentieth Century Farmer, which
paper is published by Tho Ben company nnd
which shares n part of tho booth space.
Nebraska Is pre-eminently a stock country,
thprcfore the timeliness of tho photographs
Illustrating what Nobraska can do In the
way of stock raising.
