The Workingmen Parade the

The Fight for Wages on Which Mon

The situation between the striking
laborers on the B. & M. grading cnn-
tract and Contractor Stcpanson an-
sutnod n moro aorious appearancn this
tonlay. The announcement that
there would bo men on hnnd who
would work r cm ] ted in a largo nnd
enthusiastic crowd being assembled on
the spot nt fl:45 : a. m. Further at
tempts at negotiation between the
contractor and the men resulted in
accomplishing nothing. The men
wanted § 1.50 per day nnd declined to
accept 81 40 which wns offered them.
THE PAllADK.
After considerable parleying the
men formed in double line , nnd nftor
securing the Bohemian band marched
to StophonHon'fl brick barn on Tenth
ind Hartley where they displayed n
dummy rigged up to represent the man
10 Would work for 81.25 a day. It
wua stated to have been the intention
to entry it through the streets nnd
, hon burn it , but before that could be
done some of the men demolished it
entirely nnd scut tu rod the remains in
the street.
THOUBANIIH OP HPKUTATOKH.
The sound of a band of
music at so early an hour in
the morning attracted considurablo at
tention from the mum streets nnd when
a few minutes later the striking work
men marched to the Popploton corner
there was at least three or four thous
and people there. The bidowalkH worn
black and windows everywhere cur
tained by n throni ; of heads. The
men carried at the head of the pro
cession a red ( lag on which
wore the words , "Striking for § 1.75
per day , " this being the amount de
manded after the refusal to go above
$1.40 , though Mr. Stephenson sub-
Buqiiolitly otlbrod to pay § 1.50. After
playing several airs the flag and band
led the way up the south side of
Farnham street , the band stopping
occasionally to serenade some of the
busincBB houses on that thoroughfare.
TIIKY OltEKT T1IIEII OLD EMM.OYK11.tl1
At Farnlmm nnd Thirteenth they
caught sight of Mr. Stephenson com
ing down on the nppositosido , escorted
byamiuad of the priico. headed by
the city marshal aiid doputy.
There was a great shout
at this but the contractor nnd police
passed on down without a word , the
procession thereupon reversing the
direction of the in arch. On Eleventh
and Farnam they mot the same party
coming back and another halt was
made , horns tooted and loud groans
and expressions' disapproval in
dulged in.
ORDEHLY AND OOOD NATURKD.
There was nothing in the actions of
the crowd , on the streets , to indicate
any intentions of violence but rather
a good humored poking of fun at the
contractor. Proceeding down Fnrnam
they halted to soronudo TUB
BKH nnd just as they did
so thn stars and stripes were thrown
out over the government building ,
which brought out prolonged choura.
The Union Pacific headquarters und
the Oanfiold house were UHO treated
to muaiu , the crowd making quite a
long stay nt this point. After playing
to the Union Pacific clerks nnd
ollicials , a man in the throng cried
out , pointing to TUB BEK ollice ,
"Thoro is our friend"and , turning to
the headquarters building , "Thoro is
our enemy. "
I'ROMIHKU ASSISTANCE.
One of tliu muii informed n reporter
( hut they had rrrt-iveil word fri in the
mini in i ho U 1 * . thops and Smult-
ing worltH that U necessary they
would stop Work and help swell the
wvci'ssion. Ho said that the U , P.
foundry had iilroady shut down , nnd
that a portion of the moulders had
quit work mul that only a few
were at work in the
blacksmith shop , Inquiry did not de
velop any further fiicls , and shortly
before noon the crowd dispersed und
re assembled at 1 p. m.
IN THK AKTEllNOON
About 500 mou assembled on the
dump nnd marched from there to
Tenth street , between Douglas nnd
Dodge , whore the sewer work was go
ing on , and where about twenty-live
ion were on the trench ,
AT THE HKWKH.
[ lore ono of the party addressed
horn , and they all with tlueo oxcep-
ions ceased work ut once , and the
najority of llio visitors moved on tu
) ho cori'i'T , a few Htill runmiiiing , Ttvn
of the sewer mou got out of the ditch
on being told to do BO and the third
remained longer , when h was told to
; i t out or ho'd got dirt thrown on
dm. At this ho got out , and us ho
- was about to start away ho was
liaiidled in a pretty rough way and
iinally carried ou" bodily. Quito a num
ber had 'joined the strikers since the
. forenoon and there were many who
expressed the opinion that it would
' provo the beginning nf a strike in
which all the workingmen in lawn
would join. It is said that there has i
boon dissatisfaction for aomo time
I in various quarters ut the
reduction of prires when living ins
been HO much higher than usual , and
hence there was much conjecture us toby
the outcome of the example sot by
graders. A number of buuinoRs men
nnd others expressed themselves us
blaming Mr. Stephenson for the wliolt
trouble , Not ono has been heart
to blame men for not wishing to worl
at § 1 25 a day , as they say no mat
can live and keep a family on $7.50 i
week.
MAYOlt IIOYO
was a ked by TUB BUB reporter as i
the application to the cUy authorities
to interfere : "I cannot interfere with
men for peaceably parading the
streets , " way the reply ; "tho law
gUM-nntcos them that liberty , " It is
reported that Mr. Stephenson intends
to KUO the city for not protecting him
with the police.
TIIOL'lir.R.
It scorns that during the
forenoon f < the men unhitched nil
the horses from the wagons
and carlo and dumped the latter , with
plowo ' , etc. , into the pond near by.
Mr. . James Callnhan , who was super
intending the grading before it was
stopped , was hit on the head and
hurt wliilo resisting.
After leaving Thirteenth atroot tin1
strikers ] nnd the largo body of man
accompanied the procession to the
sewer ditch on Four.'oenth street be
tween Farnhnm and Harnoy where
about twenty five men \roro at work.
The strikers harangued and insisted
on these to quit shoveling and the
crowd gathered on the corner
of Fourteenth and Farnlmm
streets. At this juncture
MATOK 1IOY1)
upon the Bcono wiih the police force ,
Chief Engineer nnlligan nnd two or
thrco specials. The mayor snid : "I
command you in the name of the State
of Nebraska and as Mayor of the Oily
of Omaha to disperse. . "
The crowd at this raised u dissent
ing yell , when the mayor commanded
the ofllcors to nrrest the ringleaders ,
nnd four men wore quickly placed into
wagons nnd taken to jail. The by-
standing strikers attempted to inter
fere , but the oilicora clubbed them oil' ,
and succeeded in clearing the corner.
The mayor evinced the best of nerve ,
and by his pluck and authoritative
presence ' quelled what at onu time
seemed to bo nn imminent riot.
After the disporaing'of the cr < wd
at the command of Mayor Boyil ,
everything was quint up to six o'clock ,
and Farnum street uuumed its ordi
nary appearance , except , purhup.s ,
that more people were gathered on
the . , corners , discussing , projund con ,
the relative positions of the strikers
and the city oH'icialn. After supper
about two hundred of the strikers as
sembled on Howard street near the
dump and from there proceeded to
the corner of F.irnam nnd Ninth
streets , where an informally organ
ized meeting was hold.
At this congregation objut a hun
dred of the strikers remained and
they were addressed briefly by the
best speakers and by the chairman.
Ono of the speakers gave it as his
opinion that the Rtriketa would gain
their point by Friday , if they would
bo firm. Ho was of the opinion Unit
the men should never have allowed
the leaders to have boon arrested yes
terday , and said that if they had been
men inatuad of children they would
not have permitted it.
HHHThis latto'r sentiment was not as enthusiastically
thusiastically applauded us the man
speaking it could doairo , and the atten
tion of the crowd Boomed to bo alto
gether on other things.
After awhile it was determined that
the mooting should adjourn until 7
o'clock this morning , when the strik-
eis should all gather ut th dump nnd
watch matters there during the day
It was generally agreed that if men
attempted to work at the prices struck
against their tools should bp taken
from them , but no one to bo injured.
Liter , another gathering wns hold
at the corner of Ninth and Howard
streets. The mooting was called t
order nt 8i30 o'clock , und cries were
immediately raised for Edward Walsh ,
the bricklayer , who was supposed to
bo prosont. Walsh responded , and
said that before the strikers could
hope to do anything of good or bo olit
to themsolveathey must organize. They
should bo firm , but at the same time
they should bo very careful to bo law-
abiding. He thought that $1.75 waa
only enough for them to live upou
and would bo reasonable From sta
tistics it could be proven that
a boom for any city never lasted
longer than five years. Therefore
it behooved thorn to make hay while
the sun shines. No man could live
upon § 1.25 u day and it was unreasonable
enable to expect a man to work for such
RII amount. Ho then censured Mayor
Boyd's action in interfering with the
strikers on the corner of Fourteenth
nnd Farnam streets. Ho always
thought that in America every man
had a r' ' V to go where plenped ; to
discuss any question , BO long as ho did
not attempt to break any laws , and ho
entirely tailed to see where the
Htrikora hud attempted to do anything
out of the usual lino. Ho a ain asks
mon to refrain Irom injuring anybody
or anything.
The mooting was quite orderly and I
the speaker was moat enthusiastically
applauded throughout. It was agreed
that n mass meeting should bo held at
the city hall this morning at 0 o'clock.
The crowd then very quietly dispoa od.
THOSE AUHKHTKI ) .
The men who were nrrosted yostor-
duy uCiernoon , as being the loaders of
the striking nnd riotous mob on the
corner of Fourteenth and Farnam
streets , gave their immos ns Peter
Johnson , NioJ * Andurson , and Ernoit
Ucchtor. A special policeman ,
numod Van Norman , was subse
quently arrested for taking part in
the usaault upon the mon lorcoi1 out
of the water works trench on Tenth
ittrt'ot.
In the case of each of the three
parties arrested on Farnam Htrtet the
bail was put at § 200 Anderson and
Rochter furnished the bail and were
released about six o clock in the oven-
ing.

The penalty prescribed by the statute
for the otl'enso of riotous proceedings
is 9100 line at the outside and three
months' imprisonment. The prison-
era will bo arraigned this afternoon
at two o'clock.

BOTTS BREAKS FAITH ,
And Tells a PJatisiblo Story
of the Shooting of
Stroobuch ,
Which , If True , Would Exonerate
Him Entlruly.
The network of proof against the
alleged murderers of Henry Stroobeck
in Keg Crook township , Pottnwatto-
mio county , lown , is clowly closing
about them. It was made moro se
cure yesterday by the confession of
Joncph Bolts , the colored man arrest
ed at the house of Mrs. Green near
Metz' brewery , in this city , nnd who
from his well known character was
suspected strongly of having been
the man who fired the fatal shot.
Betts immediately after his arrest
played innocent to perfection but the
proofs as to his complicity in the af
fair were too overwhelming and yes
terday ho made a quasi confession to
Henry Orobc , the ox-deputy sheriff
and \ the jailor , Mr , Joe Miller.
Bolts' story is a plausible ono , and
is confirmed in several details by
known facts Ho says that on Friday
afternoon last Murray und D.m Shon-
tor came over to Omaha from the
Blulft , and mot him near the headquarters -
quarters buildim ; . They naked him
to go across the river with them nnd
net as doorkeeper at a lecture to bo
given by Murray nt n school hi > usu in
the neighborhood of the residence of
Stroobech. Whether there ia any
such school house or not Betts don't
know , but it is known that Murray ,
who is an Englishman , has delivered
several lectures at different Uinvs.
The trio crossed the river on the-2
o'clock dummy , Murray payim ? the
fares of all three They reached tlra
vicinity of the suuposcil school houst ;
about ! 'u'0 ! o'clocK , but were lost and
could not find it , if it wiis thoro.
Joe then wanted to robarn to Couu- |
cilllufh , but the others1 refused and [ T
proyoaud hunting for a farm house ,
which they did , bringing up at Stroo-
boclv'o. Hero they encountered a
dog which was baligcront.and Betts
was assigned the duty of pacifying
wliilo the other two tried to find
lodgings at the houso. liuving got t
the dog quieted and finding that his
compauior.B had entered the house ,
Joe started to follow them. He got
only inside the hallway when-ho heard
the shot. Ho says ho think'3 ono of
the two fired it , of course , but don't
know which ono. All they got was
the § 0 , nnd of this small booty none
fell to his share.
The pistol was obtamod at a Coun
cil Bluffs-pawn-shop , a friend having
offered it to them for protection < m
the trip iff they would pay the amount
due on it. Ho claims Unit he VTOH nor.
lot into the secret of ilio object of the
visit in the slightest degree.
While this story may or may not bo
true it is-a- plausible ono , nnd further
confessions may be had uliioh may
help to unravel the mjstery.
Walton , who was arrehted as a wit
ness , being the party taken in to do
the work and who backed out , waa
taken over to- Council Bluffs yester
day.It
It was rumored on peed authority
last night that Strooboch's wounds
wore after all not likely to provo fatul.
A NEW GRAND JURY.
Judge Savage Grants the Bequest
of tha- District Attornoj.
At the opening of the district court
yesterday District Attorney Burn-
ham made application for the calling
of n special grand jury to finish up
the criminal work of the tarm inter
rupted oy the illegality in tJio organ
ization of the regular body. The law
under which thia ia askivd is ia fol
lows :
Section 405 , Criminal Cede of Ne
braska : "After vho dUcluiryo of the
grand jury it shall bo lawful for the
court when it shall be deemed neces
sary , to order the sheriff to call together -
gother a new grand jury from the by
standers or neighboring citizens , of
sixteen good and lawful men , having
the qualifications of grand juroru ,
who snail bo returned and sworn or
utlirmed nnd shall proceed in iho same
manner. "
The state's attorney took the ground
that one of the cases thus interrupted
was tor alleged murder and that to
delay the action of the grand jury
and the trial of the case was to keep
n largo number of witnesses on hand
at a great expense to the state and
annoyance to thorn. The court
granted the desired order , and the
now jury will probably j/ot to work
to-day. In the meantime Kos-
tors renews bin bail , which he did this
torday morning.
It is stated by his attorneys that it
is not customiuy for a court to exor
cise this privilege except on extraor
dinary occasions , and they do not
think thia ono. But ono special grand
iury was over called before in Douglas
county and that was by Judge Luke
several years ago , when n murdoro
waa under arrest and had to bo deal
with by law at once or probably bt
lynched. There nro two or thro
supreme court di-ciaions bearing 01
the subject nnd the now indictmon

Trouble Tor Anna Dickinson.
'i'ho recent puHic.ition in TJIK BIK :
Ciiiicorning the hnrd time that the
Anna Dickinson jwrty , or u ptut
thcruof ] , had when IIITO recent/ ) , was
g'Veii upon the authority of Ths Lin
coln Globe , and w.is connidorab/y / in
correct. The trouble experienced by
Iho party in finding the depot ft-asnot
duo to n "drunken Oimha hack
driver , " us stated , but to the weak
ness of a Council Bluffs' alei h. The
episode | occurred after the performa -
a ice in Councrl Dluffr , ns the party
wore bcini ; driven through the snow
storm to the tr.innfor depot. , ? ust as
the del pork hetiso was reached the
sleigh in which the party were st'owod
away broke down , smd it became ini-
poshibio tu go any further ,
The passengers started out on foot
to walls to the transfer i ml lost their
path in the snow storm. As a conire-
quenco they wandbred about on the
pmiriu for about an hour until they
finally stiruck the right road and ar
rived at the depot. 3t is needless to >
say that they suffered much and were
generally disgusted , but the cmise
therefor wn not the inebriety of a
hiicic driver nor the fault of iniy other
individual , but duo to thn weakness
of the con vo.vince : in wliich they stinted
out.
TUUE TO HEtt'TBUST.
Too much cannot be said of the
ever faithful wife and mother , con
stantly watching and caring for her
dear ones , never neglecting a single
duty in their behalf. When they sire
assailed by disease , and the system
ahould have n thorough cleansing , the
atonmch and bowels regulated , blood
purified . , malarial poison exterminated ,
she must know tlr.it Electric Bitters
nro the only sure remedy. They nr
the best nnd puroot medicine in the
world , and only cost litty cents. Sold
