John Lane, who In said to be one of the
mootheiit crooks In the. country, yester
day succeeded In (retting the cashier at the
local office of the American Express com
pany to rash a ISO money order for him.
Lane was arrested at the Union station
shortly after 2: p. m. He was found
to have In money and several large
diamonds In his possession. Ha admitted
to the police his guilt, saying he "could
sea a long Lane before him."
Several express company officials were
watching the trains In an attempt to Iden
tify the man If he should try to escape
from the city. It was Officer Heelan, how
ever, who made the arrest, and It is
thought he will receive the reward offered
cf f&no. Lane had a small valise and had
changed his headgear for a new straw hat.
lie admitted working under various aliases
given In addition to John Lane, George W.
Edwards, George W. Cayser, George W,
Hess, James Kelgh and A. B. Kelgh.
The man travels under the name of John
Lans and several other aliases. He walked
Into the express office soon after the open
ing hour this morning and presented an
order drawn to John Lane with the name
of the remitter given as 'William Lane.
The cashier had some hesitancy In cashing
the order and asked Lane to give some
reference or secure someons to Identify
Mm. After some explanation on the part of
Lane the order was finally cashed and Lane
walked out with the money.
Find Picture, Afterward.
Five minutes after the money had been
paid over It was found that the man's pic
ture graced the wall of the express office
and that the company had long since of
fered a reward of $500 for him, which now
stands. The money order cashed was one
of a number which had been stolen from
the offices of the company In another city
and on the reward circular the numbers of
the stolen order blanks were given and
among them was the number of the order
cashed.
Lane's home Is said to be In Newark,
N. J., and It la also said that he has
been cashing the orders In all parts of the
country, but lias never before shown the
nerve he displayed hers by entering one
of the offices of the company to secure
money. He has heretofore been In the
habit of getting the orders cashed In
banks and business places.
While Lane Is said to be a very smooth
Individual with his conversation, his pic
ture on the reward circular shows him
. to be a very rough and uncouth looking
person with a criminal appearance. One
of the clerks In the express office who
noticed Lane at the cashier's desk hap
pened to notice the circular Immediately
after he left, and It .was .thus that the
Identification came about.

What Liquozone Is
Liquoxone is the result of a process
Trhlch. tor more than 20 years, baa been
the constant subject of scientific and
chemical research. Ita virtues are de
rived solely from gas largely oxygen
gas by a process requiring Immense
apparatus and 14 days' time. Each
cubic inch of Liquoxone represents the
vlrtuea of 1,250 cubic lnchea of the gas.
The result is a product which does
wist oxygen does. Oxygeu Is the nerve
food, the blood food, the scavenger of
tue blood. It is the very source of
vitality, the most essential element of
life. Hut oxygen Is a gas and unstable;
while Liquoxone la fixed and concen

product can compare.

NEW YORK, May 28 More coal pur
chase contracts, said to be Identical In
form with two-score other contracts pre
viously Introduced, were produced today by
O. T. Brownell of general counsel for the
Erie railroad, when the Interstate Com
merce commission began Its final session of
the present series of hearings on the al

Thomas F. Richards, general coal aales
agent of the Philadelphia A Reading, said
there existed a better feeling today among
the railroads with reference to their coal
Interests than formerly. The petty Jeal

explained why prices were better main

such that price wars were not probable.
"I believe," he said, "the coal under late
rail contracts Is not carried at a loss."

body without killing the tissues, too.
There is nothing else known which
will do that. Any drug that kills germs
is a poison, and It cannot be taken in
ternally. For that reason, medicine is
practically helpless in any germ disease.
Liquoxone Is so certain that we pub
lish on every bottle an offer of $1,000
for a disease germ that it cannot kill.
The reason is that germs are vege
tables: and an excess of oxygen tbe
very life of an animal is deadly to
vegetal matter. Llquosone Is certain
destruction to the cause of a germ trou
ble, yet to the human body It is the
most helpful thing In tbe world.
We paid $100,000 for the American
rights to liquoxone, because this pro
duct alone can end a germ disease.
Germ Diseases
These are the known germ diseases.
AH that medicine can do for these
troubles is to help nature overcome the
germs, and such results are Indirect and
uncertain. Liquoxone tins toe germs,
wherever they are, and tbe results are
Inevitable. By destroying the cause of
tbe trouble it Invariably ends the dis
ease, and forever.

SD ANSWERS HIS CRITICS
County Attewor Explain Cbirgtt lfada
from Lincoln of Unfair Aiieumsnt
LAUGHS AT IDEA OF LOSING HIS OFFICE
Says Lancaster Coaaty Folks Are
Talk In a Xonaenae aad Rxplalas
Some Things Miller Evidently
Had Forgot.
County Assessor Harry Reed takes the
news that the Lincoln Commercial club Is
to have him removed from office with
characteristic and smiling equanimity.
"Funny about what those fellows are
going to do to me, ain't It?'' he remarked
when asked a to what he had to say in
answer to the charges that he Is extending
protection to the big Arms of the city
In the matter of the assessment of their
property.
"Do you know," he mused with much
deliberation, "I've heard so much kicking
that I rather like It. I wouldn't feel like
myself unless there was something doing
In this line. I'm particularly well fixed
Just now, too, for the merchants here are
going to have me removed If I don't cut
down their assessments and the Lincoln
fellows ars going to have me thrown out
unless I put 'em up. Now, what's a man
going to do?" he asked, with mock despair,
"Still," he continued cheerfully, "for a
man who Is as unmistakably between his
satanlo majecty and the dep sea as I am, I
must say that I feel pretty good."
Mr. Reed felt much more Inclined to
talk about the big bowling score that
was made Friday night than about the
axe that the Lincoln reports would Indi
cate is hanging over his head and seemed
to consider It of more Importance, but
was finally switched back to the first sub
ject
Do the Best He Can.
"What am I going to do? Why, I'm going
to do my work the best I can, provided, of
course, that I hold my Job," and then be
swung his chair around and continued:
"All this talk about tns difference be
tween the assessments of concerns here
and those In Lincoln is nonsense, every
bit of It, and for several good reasons.
In the first place, it Is altogether prema
ture. I do not even know, officially, what
the concerns in Omaha have been assessed
by the deputies, though, as a matter of
fact, the figures that the Lincoln Commer
cial club has used are correct end were
obtained from me. But none ot the re
turns will be turned over to me until
Monday, aa the lawprovides. I have done
absolutely nothing as yet In an official
capacity, and It strikes me that it might
be well to wait until I have done some
thing, one way or the other, before I
am removed from office, or any of the
dire threats made are carried out.
Gave Miller the Flgnrea.
"Mr. Miller, the Lincoln assessor, came
to me and I gave him the facts and figures
and information that be has printed.
also gave him some other facts and figures
and information quite as important, which
he has not seen fit to print. I told him
that I thought the assessment made by
the deputies In very many Instances with
regard to the big retail concerns of the
city was too low and stated to him that I
had already slated for a raise every one
of those he quotes as too low when the
figures should be turned over to me. You
notice, however, that he doesn't say any
thing about this part of our conversation.
Being an assessor he knows not only that
the figures of the deputies are not turned
over to me until Monday and that after
that time I am allowed ten days In which
to go over them and make such changes
In the line of raises or reductions as I
deem proper. He knows furthermore; that
after I am through with the figures they
go to the Board of Equalisation before
which latter body any Interested person
can go and Indulge In all the kicking
against the figures or the assessor or any'
body else that he wants to, and he knows,
finally, or ought to If he Is a competent
assessor, that the final conclusion of the
Board of Equalisation determines what the
property shall be assessed at and that this
conclusion Is not arrived at until the 1st
of July or thereabouts. Then do I make
my report to the state auditor and If I
have done anything wrong that Is the time
to bring It up. ,
Not a Fair Comparison.
'When they say Hayden Bros.' assass
in ant, for Instance, should be four times
1207,000, because some Lincoln concern has
voluntarily handed In 1217,000, they are talk
ing more nonsense. Neither Hayden Bros.
nor the deputy who took their assessment
nor am I responsible for what some Lin
coin concern has turned in. nor Is the com
parison a fair one In any light that you
can look at It Many of the big stores In
this as well as every other city lease cer
tafn of their departments to certain man
and have nothing to do with them In any
way. For Instance, it may be that Hayden
Bros, do not own their boot and shoe de
partment, If there Is one In their store. It
may belong to Smith or Jones, be assessed
In the name of the owner and he pay the
taxes on It. I know of several Instances of
this kind In Omaha. I never told Miller
that we have to protect the big stores or
they will leave the city and go over Into
Iowa to do business and will simply let it
go by saying that he misunderstood me.
"What I did say was to the effect that
some of the Jobbing houses ' In certain
branches of trade unquestionably do shave

"One thins; we do not do here that Mr.
Miller was careful not to mention is with
reirard to the assessment of the real estate
of national banks. In Lincoln the national
banks are allowed to deduct from their cap
Hal stock at its assessed value Instead of
the amount carried out In their return made

comparisons If I thought it worth the while.

"As to the reported decrease In valuation
of Douglas county anybody who knows any'
thing at all about the difference In the
class of the property assessed here and In
Lancaster county understands why there
Is a decrease and that It Is on the level
snd for natural causes. It Is a well known
fact that during the past years while the
property of the counties outslds has been
turned In at a twelfth to a fifteenth of Its
valuation, property In this county has been
turned In at one-fourth to one-fifth, so that
under the new law It is perfectly patent
why we do not show a corresponding raise

this county that were originally assessed
at 12 or 13 an acre are now worth $40 or

Suddenly, In 1888. Quay startled the state
by announcing himself a candidate for
treasurer. He had been quietly maturing
his plans for months. He saw that he was
slldlnr down hill, and ha dared a rleanarata
leap. He wrote letters to his friends to all
parts of the state, and announced his can

powers. His friends responded loyally, he

senator Quay's career since then Is known
to all. From his vantaa-a arrnunri In tha
state treasury he set un candidates for th
legislature and was elected to ths United
States senate in 1887. In 1888, as chairman
of the republican national committee, he
conducted a brilliant and successful cam
paign, the result of which was Harrison's
election. e was re-elected to the senate
In 188J and again in 1899.
Mr. Quay was, first of all. a oolltlcian.
He was a keen, able, methodical men,
who made politics his Ufa work a nit h

years to obtain. He did not believe In a

to keep up the enthusiasm of a cam

Benator Quay'a most famous niece of
campaign work was that which ha did in
ths national canvass of lm, In behalf of
Harrison. In studying the ground over,
after his election as chairman of the na

points. He went to New Tork and talked
the matter over with John I. Davenport.
He f.clded to take charge of the cltv him.

it proposed to cheat Harrison In the same
way., Quay quickly discovered that. The
lower wards of New Tork City were
crowded with chean tenement anil tria-in

were registered for use by Tammany on
election days.
Before many days had elarjeed a brlM

was no busier place in all New Tork than
this city directory establishment.
"But the canvassers went Into queer
places for a blue-book compilation. The

by Rufus R. Wilson: "Thoee who expect
In the Pennsylvania leader the usual out

disappointed when they meet Benator Quay
for the first time. On ordinary occasions
ono might easily mistake him for a country
storekeeper off for a holiday. In some
respects he Is a composite character. He
can content himself alone, or he can find
pleasure and diversion in the midst of his
friends. In his personal relations he Is
gracious and unassuming. He never turns

It is the visitor who does the talking, but
when a friend comes Into his room In whom
he hss confidence he will open the doors of

more abuse to the square Inch than a ma
jority of men. He will not let you smite
the other cheek, but he will pull you aside
by the coat sleeve and begin to argue with

LONDON, May 2S.-(New Tork World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) The leading
meteorologists of Europe assembled here
this week confess themselves wonderstruck
by the samples of London weather they
have experienced.
Two days of biting, east wind were fol
lowed by two of steaming heat, so that the
slightest exertion led to utter exhaustion,
snd the atmosphere was that of a tropical
swamp. Then on Friday torrential rain
was succeeded by absolute dsrkness at 10
O'clock In the morning, which fell in about
three minutes. Ths electric lights were
turned on everywhere, but the voltage not
being sufficient, the lamps only gave a dim
glimmer, and London seemed really the
city of dreadful night
The meteorologists say such freak
weather baffles all the accepted theories of
their science.
