(•EoiiGK W. Vno.MAV, the well known
Union Pacific engineer, whose name
became familliar from one end of the
country to the other because of his con
nection with the Brotherhood of boco
inotive Engineers as chairman of the
grievance committee, has been elected
president of tho San Diego, Pacific «Sfc
Eastern railroad. Mr. Vrornan left
Omaha for San Diego, and says that
there is no question but the road will
be a go, and that its success is assured.
Kailroad men throughout the United
States have taken hold of the project
and will see that it is pushed forward.
Indorsements have been received from
the commercial bodies of San Diego
and from numerous lodges of railroad
men in the United States.
A young man whose name could not
be ascertained, but who works on the
farm of Thomas Allen, ten miles north
of Eagle, accidentally shot himself last
week with a 32-calibre revolver. While
handling the weapon he squinted down
the barrel and pulled the trigger. The
ball struck his forehead just above the
right eye, making a ragged \younif, bul
coming put without penetrating the
brain, lie was taken to Eagle and
placed under the influence of chloro
form and the ball extracted, lie is a .
gritty ypung fellow about eighteen !
years of ag<£ lie refused to give his
name. "I have a father and mother in
Lincoln,” he said, ‘‘and 1 don’t want
them to know what a d-d fool I was
monkeying with that revolver.” The
doctor says he will recover.
Miss M. (i.u.i.aghkk of Brooklyn, is
one of the luckiest persons in the
world. She was en route home from
a winter spent in California, and was
sitting in the drawing room of the Pull
man on the Union Pacific eating an
orange. She was using a fruit knife
with silvey blade an^l pearl handle,
and. when she had finished she wrap
ped the knife up with the peelings and
threw the bundle out of the window.
This would be a little thing in itself if
it were not for the fact that the knife
was a personal present to her from
Queen Victoria, and consequently val
ued beyond price. The package had
been thrown out near Albright, in the
she arrived she told her story to Officer
Fleming of the Union depot squad, and
left her address with Ticket Agent
Fonda in the depot. The officer tele
graphed to South Omaha and also to
Albright, and several small boys start
ed down the track in search of the gift
from royalty. Strange ns it may seem,
the knife was found lying loose beside
the track, having become dislodged
when thrown out, and it was sent to
the Union depot. Air. Fonda forward
ed it to its owner in Urooklin.
Had it not been for the prompt arri
val of a deputy sheriff Douglas county
would have had another lynching
placed to her credit. The scene of the
trouble was at Irvington. During the
last two weeks two girls have been
criminally assaulted in that neighbor
hood. The first one assaulted is Amanda
Loche, who lives near Denson, a suburb
of Omaha. The other is Maggie Carl
son, the 15-year-old daughter of Carl
Carlson, a well known and highly re
spected farmer. The description of the
fiend given by the Carlson girl led to the
arrest of Abraham W. I.under, who is
employed as delivery man for a yeast
company in Omaha, and who resides
near Irvington. Carlson was satisfied
that the man arrested was the one who
had assaulted his daughter, and became
so enraged that he drew a revolver and
atttempted to kill him, but was pre
vented from doing so by the officers.
Lander was lodged in jail and later
was taken before .lustice Crosby, to
answer to the charge of criminally as
saulting the girls. He pleaded not
guilty, and was released on $1,500 bail
furnished by his brother. His prelimi
nary was held on the 15th. Lander
was once before arrested on the same
charge, but his victim could not posi
tively identify him and he was dis
charged. He is a married man and his
wife is prostrated with grief at her
husband's arrest.
The Clay County Teachers' associa

Increase of Wage* by Hlg Employer* ot
Labor the Unit Encouraging Feature
of tlie Week—Failure* (Slightly Leg*
Than Last Fear.
New York, May 20.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s
weekly review of trade, says: "Tlie se
vere cold snap, with extensive frosts,
and In some states snow, has fortu
nately done little damage to the great
crops, though much to fruit, but has
considerably rearded retail trade. The
best news of the week Is the advance
of 10 per cent In wages by the Carnegie
Works, followed by the Jones Laugh
lln establishment, and evidently Imply
ing a similar advance by many other
concerns. No advance has been found
practicable in the woolen mills, where
conditions as to prices and foreign com
petition are very different and about
10.000 workers are still idle at Olney
vllle, where the works should consume
600.000 pounds per week. In other de
partments of labor troubles are not se
rious, and the demand for manufactur
ed products Increases.
wun material and steady enlarge

Kreat want of employment in the inter
ior for money which comes hither—
$3,500,000 during the last week—and with
the millions distributed by the syndi
cate on bond account stimulates spec
ulation. Accordingly wheat has risen
five cents, although the reports of In
jury by frost don't appear, upon sift
ing, to concern any considerable pro
portion of the growing grain. Western
receipts for two weeks of May have been
2,917,305 bushels, against 2,600,298 last
year, and Atlantic exports 3,059,484,
against 4,565,101 last year, being re
duced by the advance in price less than
would be expected because of generally
current reports of decrease of acreage.
With only six weeks of the crop year left
the stocks In sight constitute a heavy
surplus, if not as large as some western
statisticians estimate. Corn has ad
vanced only % cent, being apparently
Injured more than wheat, but the acre
age gives promise of a yield of 2,000,000,
000 bushels.
"Cotton is an eighth stronger, in spite
of the fact that 9,618,081 bales had come
Into sight last Friday, which Is over
400.000 bales more than the largest crop
ever recorded. Goods are in fair de
mand for the season and the advance in
prices is maintained.
"Wool was remarkably heavy for the
last week at the three chief markets,
the sales being 5,536,750 pounds, and for
two weeks of May 11,059,750 pounds,
against 11,767,750 in the same week of
1892, the last year of full demand. In
that year the sales of domestic were
6.962.000 and this year 5,681,750 pounds.

been 211 in the United States, against
219 last year, end 37 in Canada, aginst

UNDER FALLING WALLS.
One Man Killed and Two Injured at
Chicago.
Chicago, May 20.—One man was killed
and two others seriously, perhaps, fatal
ly, Injured by the falling of a ruined
wall at Henry and Brown streets yes
terday afternoon. The three victims of
the accident belonged to a gang of men
engaged in tearing down the walls of
the building formerly occupied by the
Globe Molding company, which was de
stroyed by fire March 2. Twenty-two
men had been working on the job before
12 o'clock, and had vainly tried to pull
down the section of wall which subse
quently fell. This wall had been under
mined, and though all the men tugged
at It with a rope, they failed to pull it
down.
When the men resumed work at 1
o'clock in the afternoon orders were
given to remove more brick from under
the wall, and scarcely had the men
started to obey when the whole wall.
40 feet high and 125 feet long, came
down about their ears. Some of the
men perceived their danger in time to
get out of the way, but three of them
were caught among the falling brick.
Mores SegeH, the subcontractor in
charge of the work of demolition, was
arrested. He said he had no doubt the
accident was caused by a sudden gust
of wind. He was confident not a single
brick had been removed after the men
resumed work In the afternoon before
the wall fell.
Coal Mining: Situation.
Pittsburg. Pa., May 20.—The associ
ated coal operators of this district are
courting trouble. Following up their
proposition that they would pay 69 cents
if the Pittsburg and Chicago and the
New York and Cleveland companies
men could be brought out, F. L. Rob
bins announced they would import ne
groes from Virginia and pay them 60
cents a ton. Fifteen imported men went
to work yesterday. The miners are
angry at this turn of affairs, declaring
they will have 69 cents. They are mak
ing preparations to prevent the new
men from going to work and to brint
out those now working.
Judgment Against New York Sun.
London, May 20.—The libel action
which the Reuter Telegram company
brought against the New York Sun and
the Central News, as the distributor of
the Sun, for an article which appeared
in the Sun Oct. 28, 1894, headed “Spu
rious News of the Eastern War.” has
resulted in a judgment against the Sun
in the Queen's bench division of the
high court of justice, the Sun not ap
pearing. Action is pending against the
Central News.
Mlea Deposits In Alabama.
Chattanooga, Tenn., May 20.—A rich
mica lead has been discovered in Clay
county, Ala., In the foothills of Talla
dega mountain. A vein being opened
is four feet thick and tips at an angle
of 65 degrees. The finest commercial
mtch has already been taken out, the
largest take weighing twenty-four
pounds and cutting into 7x8 inches.
Big Cotton Mill Burns.
Methuen, Mass., May 20.—Fire broke
out in Clous’ cotton mill at about 1:30
this morning, and in spite of the efforts

been sent,' the building was burned ‘to
the.ground. -The loss will-he heavy.
SILVERITES ADJOURN.
Address Issued to the People of
America.
Salt Lake City, Utah, May 20.—The
bimetallic convention has adjourned.
An address was Issued to the people of
the country, setting forth the claims of
the states represented. California, Col
orado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Ore
gon, Washington and Wyoming, and
the territories of New Mexico and Utah.
The claim Is made that the people of
these states, irrespective of party af
filiations, present themselves almost as
a unit demanding the free coinage of
sliver and gold at the ratio of sixteen
ounces of silver to one ounce of gold,
with full legal tender functions accorded
to each and no discrimination against
either. The address continues: “The
monetary system of the country was
founded not upon gold alone, not up'-n
silver alone, but upon both silver and
gold, at a certain ratio to each other,
with no limitation upon the coinage of
either and each standing upon an equal
footing before the law. The system was
founded by Hamilton, sanctioned by
Washington and Jefferson, Its wisdom
and Justice questioned by no one until
the year 1873. In that year, without
notice to the people, the standard silver
dollar was dropped from the coinage
system of the country, and every debt
therein existing, public and private, ag
gregating thousands of millions of dol
lars, was made payable in gold alone.
Against this monstrous injustice the
members of the new party are pledged
to labor.”
The following executive committee
was chosen: Colorado, E. B. Light;
Idaho, Q. V. Bryant; California, H. W.
Langenour; Montana, F. T. Merrill;
New Mexico, T. Bradford Prince; Ore
gon, Sydney Dell; Washington, W. C.
James; Wyoming, F. W. Mandell; Utah,

DECISION WILL BE ADVERSE.
Report That the Income Tax Will Be
Declared Unconstitutional.
Chicago, May 20.—A special dispatch
from Washington to the Chicago Tri
bune says: Chief Justice Fuller has
completed writing a decision which up
sets the Income tax law entirely and
wipes It off the statute books. The de
cision has been put In type, returned
from the printer, and Is now being con
sidered by the majority justices solely
on the ground of its general expressions.
The law itself is a thing of the past.
The conference of Saturday developed
the fact that Chief Justice Fuller, Jus
tices Field, Gray and Brewer were still
opposed to the law as a whole. Prac
tically the whole court was willing to
exempt state and municipal bonds. A
majority of the court, including Justice
Jackson, was opposed to the tax on
rentals. An apparent majority was in
favor of upholding the law as a whole,
but just at this juncture Justice Shiras,
who wavered during the first hearing,
took his stand witn the opponents of
the law and then the chief justice went
to work on his opinion, knowing it
would go down into history as the de
cision of the court. It will almost cer
tainly be handed down Monday, and
the chances are there will be several
individual opinions delivered at the
same time.
EfcCITED MARKETS.
Wheat and Corn Prices Raised at Sev
eral Points.
Chicago, May IS.—Excitement greater
than ever marked the grain markets
to-day. Corn joined wheat in the as
cending scale, and prices went up at a
rate that took away the breath of the
speculators. It was a bad weather and
short crop market, and between this
and the influx of orders from the coun
try to buy both wheat and corn the
market broke away from the profes
sionals and went star-hunting again.
Corn sold up to 56% from the opening at
51%, and wheat went to 72%, a cent and
three-eighths above the starting point
of 70%.
Prices at other points continued
higher than in Chicago. While brokers
were offering to sell all the visible sup
ply at 69% cents on the floor of the Chi
cago bourse, wheat was quoted at 70%
cents in Milwaukee, 71% cents in Toledo
and 72 cents in Detroit.
That considerable damage has been
done to the growing crop in Illinois, In
diana and Missouri seems certain.
Frost and bugs have conspired to reduce
the prospective yield, and reports from
all portions of those states indicate
short crops and unfavorable conditions.
ACCEDES TO OUR DEMAND.

GOV. EVANS STIRRED UP.
Addrass to the Citizen* of goath
Carolina. ,
Columbia, S. C., May 16.—Gov. Evans
has issued a long address to citizens of
South Carolina in which he deals harsh
ly with the recent decisions in the dis
pensary and registration cases. He
says: "The people of South Carolina
have always been law-abiding and re
spect the constitution and the courts of
the United States. But when the Judges
of those courts wantonly invade and
trample under foot the recognized rights
of our people, guaranteed by the fed
eral constitution, they have a right to
assert themselves and maintain their
sovereignty and independence. This
they have ever done and will continue
to do and will resist with all the means
within their power usurpation and tyr
anny and partisan politicians In high
places who disgrace the judicial er
mine.” He denounces Judge Goff In
the most bitter tones, and closes as fol
lows: "I appeal to the sovereign peo
ple of South Carolina to protect their
homes and liberties. The government
of the people must and shall be perpet
uated, and we are ready to lead the
fight under the white man’s flag.”
Tariff Dlapute to He Heard May SO.
Washington, May 16.—The supreme

ment of counsel in the case of Burr &

States circuit court for the southern
district of New York. Judge Wheeler
in this case held that the new tariff act

date fixed in the bill, notwithstanding
the fact that the bill was not signed by
the President until August 2S.
Pi edict a Brief Campaign.
Cadiz, May 16.—Persons who have ar
rived here recently from Havana de
clare that the campaign which is being
directed by Capt. Gen. Martinez de
Campos against the Cuban insurgents
■will be briefer than Is generally ex
pected. The military operations, they
add, will be pushed during the rainy
season. Capt. Gen. Martinez de Cam
pos will demain In Cuba until order Is
completely restored, which, It Is claim
ed, will probably be before the begin
ning of next year.

Admiral Meade's Cue.
Washington, May 16.—It Is reported
that Admiral Meade declined to fur
nish the navy department with the evi
dence which can be made the basis of
a court-martial. The navy department
has called upon him to afiirm or deny
the accuracy of the interview attrib
uted to him in which he criticised the
president and the secretary of the navy,
and Admiral Meade, in response to this
demand, has courteously replied, de
clining to avow or disavow the inter
view. Admiral Meade, in other words,
proposes to throw the burden of proof
upon the department to show whether
he has or has not violated any of its
regulations. _
