THE RED CLOUD *
The Delayed Steamer Arrives
in the Port of Omaha
at Last.
On'y ' Ono Moro Boat Up This Spring.
The steamer "Hcd Cloud" of the
II. G. Baker & Co. line reached hero
nt 10:30 : n. m. yesterday , ono month
and four days out from St , Louis.
The river being somewhat up , the
stacks had to bo lowered to got undvr
the bridge , and thoboat slowly steamed
to the foot of Farnam street , and tied
up nt the levee , where n crowd of cur
ious spectators soon assembled. As
soon ns the gnng planks wore run out
oho \vas boarded by n BEE reporter ,
who mot the old veteran of Missouri
stoamboating , Captain John A. Wil
liams , ns ho descended from the hurri
cane dock and was cordially greeted
by him. '
As readers of TEE BEE know , the
Ilcd Cloud loft St. Louis , March IGth
and had a Rood trip until shp reached
a point about eight miles this side of
Nebraska City , by river and two and
n half miles across by shore. Hero ,
nt G0 : ! a. in. on the morning of April
1st she mot -with an accident
to her machinery which delayed her
for eighteen days , the captain in the
meantime goiog to St. Louis for
now machinery , and finding on its
arrival at the boa' , that it was made
for anything but to fit. At the tima
of the accident the steamer had about
1GO passengers , and of thcso about
forty left off the deck and some of
the cabin -passengers , going on to
their destination in Montana by rail.
This loft her on arriving in Omaha
about ninety passengers , thirty cabin
and sixty dock. She also carries n
crow of about twenty men on dock ,
with the following oflicors :
John A. "Williams , master.
William Drown , clerk.
Stewart and Nowland , pilots ,
lluo and Jasper , engineers.
Mike Murphy , mate.
Karris , an old veteran , steward.
Nearly all the passengers are des
tined for Montana , generally to the
Barker Minos. There arc also on
board 220 tons of freight besidp the
baggage of the passengers , consisting
almost entirely of commissary's sub
sistence from beans to sugar. There
is a largo quantity of household goods
and several wagons , the latter stowed
way on the hurricane dock. There
is also ono consignment of fifty hay
rakes and cutters , for use in cutting
the wild grass which is harvested
every year in the mountains. Almost
) veiy pound of freight goes to R. G.
Baker & Co. , whoso main depot is at
Bpnton , from whence supplies nro dis-
ributpd to Cypress mountains , Fort
Welch , McOloud and elsewhere. The
101110 ofllco of the company is at'St.
Ix > uis , and they supply all thcso
points and British 'America generally
rith goods of all kinds.
Capt. Williams reports the river in
i very bad state for navigation. They
Dogan "sparring" over bars before
; hey got to Kansas City , and have
copt it up all along , being compelled
; o spar over the bar below the bridge ,
which , as our citizens know , lies at
the point where the channel divides ,
part flowing down the Nebraska
lido , and the main channel , by a long
iotour , rejoining it by way of the
[ owa shore. When the water is above
the average , the bar rises with it , and
it becomes what the boatmen call
imoar rivor. When the water is down
it cuts out a clear channel. As the
"Rod Cloud" is heavily loaded , she
draws throe foot eight inches , and. re
quires n pretty good dnpth to sail in.
Capt. Williams states that but one
other boat will follow him , the "W.
T. Bohan , " a small steamer purchased
t > y Capt. Grant Marsh , for use in the
local trade at Yankton and above.
3ho will probably reach Omaha in
about nine days.
The distance from St. Louis to Benton -
ton is 2,000 miles , and from Omaha to
Bpnton 2,100 miles. The Rod Cloud
will , if no accident happens , roach her
destination in about 24 days , after
which she will run between Benton
and Bismarck until the snow begins
to fall , returning down the river in
August. The boat went up on the
28th day of April last year and down
on the 4th of November , being un
usually late.
Among the incidents of the trip
was an occurrence which took place
Wednesday. Ono of the firemen had a
jug of whisky concealed in the coal
box and in the same box was a jug of
turpentine. By mistake ho got a
'good "swig" at the turpentine before
ho discovered the mistake , and was
scared nearly to death for fear it
would kill him. Ho was brought
through all right by a liberal USD of
oil. There is not a single case of sick
ness on board , although on the same
trip last year there wore forty cases of
measles , several of the adults dying of
the disease after they reached tlieit
destination.
The Rod Oloud is a largo and com
modious boat , well appointed in eveiy
respect , clean and pretty , and in dei
the management u an ellloioni und
gentlemanly set of oflicers , ono of the
pleasantest of upper Missouri boats
for passenger travel.
MISSING.
A Yountr Lady Mysteriously Disap
pears From Her Home.
Mr. B. A *
Page , a young man em
ployed at the Planters' House , called
at TUB BEK ofllco yesterda y and
stated that his half sister , Miss Jennie -
nio Little , had been unaccountably
absent since about 4 o'clock Monday
afternoon and that ho was greatly
alarmed for her safety. Mr , Page und
his sister came to Omaha about two
weeks ago , and the latter went to
work in thojjCreighton house , but left
there Sunday and went to the Plan
ters. On Tuesday afternoon sholoft
the house and eiuoo that time has been
neither seen nor hoard from. Her
brother does not know whether she
has been led away by some de
signing villain , has boon murdered ,
or what fate has befallen her her , lie
gives the following description of the
missing girl ; She is apparently about
18 years of age , quite good looking ,
short and heavy set , auburn hair , fair
complexion and hair inclined to curl.
The first joint of the little fmpor on
the right hand is crooked , and the
next two fingers bear a scar across the
second ioints , She also has a scar in
the center of the forehead between
the eyes. She wore a long , stwighl
black cloak , black straw hat und brown
veil , and had a peculiar habit of al
ways dressing her hair with blue rib
bons. Ho offers a reword for any in
formation concerning her whereabouts
whether dead or nlivo.
THE MI88IKO
Miss Jennie Little , the young lady
who was reported as missing in last
evening's BEE hai been found. It
appears the girl had a place offered
her , and accepted it at once , sending
a note to her brother informing him
of her whereabouts. The brother
through some mistake did not receive
the noio and was nearly frantic at
the thought of what might have be
fallen his sister. Miss Little knovt
nothing of this until she saw the article >
clo in THE BEE , recounting her mys
terious disappearance which broughl
the two parties together.
RAIL RECORD.
Superintendent Clark and Hie
Work for the Next
Tear ,
The Burllngton'o Action In Regard tc
the Colorado Pool.
Mr. S. S. Merrill , general managei
of the Chicago , Milwaukee & St.
Paul railway , informed a Chicago
Tribune representative Tuesday thai
Mr. J. T. Clark , the newly appointed
general superintendent of his road
will assume the duties of the position
aliout May 15th , and. that ho will
have full charge of the operations of
the road. Mr. Merrill feels rather
elated because ho has boon able to
secure the sovices of so able and ex
perienced an operating man as Mr.
Clark.
Mr. Merrill also stilted that no now
construction of branches or extensions
will bo commenced this year , but the
woik begun last season will bo push
ed to a speedy completion. The lines
on which work is now progressing and
which will bo finished this year nro as
ollows :
The now Council Bluffs extension
from Marion , O. , to Council Bluffs.
This line will bo completed and ready
[ or trains about Sept. 1st , next.
The line from Hastings to Still water ,
Minn. , which will bo completed by
July 1st.
A branch line from Yankton to
Scotland , Dak. , twenty-eight miles
iu length. The grading for this line
lion all boon done , and will bo ready
tor business by next fall.
The building of a Black Hills extension -
tension , Mr. Merrill says lias been
abandoned for the present , as it would
not pay to construct a line through
the Indian reservation simply to se
cure the little business originating in
the Black Hills. It was at ono time
contemplated to build an extension
from the Missouri river to the Black
Hills , jointly by the Northwestern
and Milwaukee & St. Paul roads , but
the scheme has been given up and
both roads will stop at the Missouri
river until some different disposition
haa boon made of the Indians now oc
cupying the large territory between
the river and Black Hills. As long
as , the Indians remain in exclusive
possession of that territory a road
running through it could not bo mahy
to pay , as the Indians do not improv.
the land and depend entirely upon th
government for their suppoit.
Mr. Merrill also spoke very en
thusiastically of the future prospects
of his road , and said the next annual
statement will bo so favorable as to
canso general surprise.
BUIILINOTOH 11UHINESS.
The Chicago Tnbuno of yesterday
says : "The Colorado Traffic Associa
tion hold a meeting yesterday at the
office of Commissioner Mfdgley foi
the purpose of taking action regarding
the notice given by the Burlington
that it would withdraw from the Col
orado posl May ( i.
There wore present ; 0. H. Chap-
poll and H. H. Courtwright , Alton ;
T. J. Potter , E. P. Ripley and Paul
Morton , Burlington ; R. R , Cable and
J. T. Sanford , Rock Island ; W. H.

Wabanh ; Marvin Hughitt and H. 0.
Wicker , Chicago & Northwestern ;
and J , W. Midgloy , commissioner.
The St. Louis & San Francisco wet
not represented.
General Manager Potter , d ofoe
Burlingtonsubmitted a written stat
mont to the effect that his companj
was induced to give notice of with !
drawal because its percentage in the
Colorado pool was insufllciont , and
that his road was entitled to a largoi
share of the business. It would re
consider its notice of withdrawal if it
was given a larger percentage in the
Northern Division and a share of the
business in the Southern Division , ai
by die construction of a now line tc
Denver it has not only increased
facilities from Chicago , but has also t
good and direct line from St. Louis ,
Owing to the abaonco of the represen
tatives of the St. Louis it San Fron <
cisco it was not possible to take anj
action regarding the demand for t
share of the business in the Southorr
Division , and consequently the con
sideration of the whole matter wa
deferred until this morning at ten
o'clock , when it is expected that
representative of the St. Louis & San
Francisco road will bo present. It it
doubtful , however , that any definite
action can ba had at this meeting at
the principal officials of the Gould
roads are unable to be present , owing
to Gould's Western trip. The ques
tion is of such great importance that
it is not likely that the officials who
are present will feel that they can act
in the matter.
What the outcome of the difllcuity
ill be cannot yet bo predicted. The
officials of the various roads have the
best hopes that all differences will be
amicably adjusted and a war on Cole
rado business avoided. It is stated
that the Burlington has consented , in
the event of a failure to agree upon
an increased percentage for its road in
the Colorado Association , to allow the
matter to bo scttlod by arbitration.
The Burlington , it is chimed , cannot
well afford to ongnge in a war on Col
orado business against nil other lints ,
because it would bring about a combi
nation between the other roads in the
association and the Union Pacific and
Atchlson , Topeka & Santa Fo , and
this would enable them to meet any
rates made on Colorado business by
the Burlington. Besides a war on
Colorado business would greatly em
barrass the aflairs of the Southwestern
and Iowa associations , and the Bur -
lington cannot desire any such result. "
F1OHT1NO roll rASSAOE.
The Denver Tribune of yesterday
says !
"About fifteen minutes to 7 o'clock ,
last night , two hundred workmen and
a heavy force ot teams simultaneously
appeared at the DcnvcrUas Works , at
Wewatta and Nineteenth streets , hav
ing come from different directions.
The men had walked up Nineteenth
street , from the lower Chicago & Burl
ington railroad grade. The teams , with
their loads of tics nnd rails , had coma
alongside the railroad track at the
Gas liouso from Seventeenth street.
Five minutes later three hundred feet
of track had been laid through the
street , between the Rio Grande track
and the main building of the Ga4
works. The balance of the night the
night workmen , stood ciiard over the
now property. 'The now track prac
tically lots the road through Wowatta
street to the Union depot , and only
lacks a few foot at the Colorado Cen
tral "Y" to bo connected.
The cause for the mysterious and
rapid work can bo brictiy explained :
The road had obtained a right of way
through Wewatta street to the depot.
The line had been constructed to the
Nineteenth street crossing , from which
point it was thought the road could bo
built to the depot without fear of con-
teat or molestation. Recently it be
came the expressed intention of the
Uas company , that the Burlington
people should not bo allowed to build
through the narrow road between the
Rio Grande track and the building.
It vvas feared that an injunction , re
straining further work would bo issued
from the court , and , to protect their
right of way , the company took the
precaution to build before legal inter-
terence had been mado. Now they
have the road , and it is their claim
t'hat they can hold it.
An hour after the work had been
done , and while the workmen were
keeping sentinel pace by the track ,
Colonel Archer , of the gas company ,
arrived upon the scene , and inspected
the construction.
"What do you think of it ? " asked
a Tribune reporter who happened to
bu present when the colonel appeared.
"H'mjit'a all right , " he replied.
"We'll throw the , track off in the
morning , if wo want to. "
ENTERPRISING CITIZENS
Beautifying the Streets with .Lawns
and Shade Troes.
To the Editor ot The lies :
A most important work has just
been inaugurated by Messrs. John
McCormick , Frank Koanard , Levi
Konnard , Harry Deuol , P. L. Porine ,
S. H. H. Clark and Mrs. Wilson , in
the planting out of double rows of
trees on the north side of Dodge be
tween Eighteenth and Twentieth , and
sodding the space of twelve feet between
tweon said rows of trees. The space
thus left in the center of the street is
abundantly wide for public travel , the
expense of paving m the future is
enormously reduced , and a system of
beautifying our residence 'streets is
thus inaugurated which will result in
making Omaha ono of the most attrac
tive cities in the country. The par
ties named above are entitled to the
hearty thanks of our people
for their public spirit , liberality
and enterprise for demonstrating
in this practical way the possibilities
of the future in the , adornment of a
city of whoso wonderful growth and
financial prosperity we are all so proud.
But the advantage of this work does
not end with beautifying the streets ;
it odds to the comfort and pleasure of
pur homes , cultivates public taste and
increases immeasurably a love for the
city of their nativity or adoption , on
the part of the younger members of
our growing population. The example
thus sot by the property owners of
upper Dodge will doubtless be eagerly
followed by these of other resident
streets. B.

A BiG HAUL
Two of the Most Notorious and
Dangerous Men in tbo
City Taken.
They Are Identified as the Men
Who Qarroted Adolph
Siofkin.
Other Important Criminal News.
A few weeks ago the residence of
John Little was robbed of several hun
dred dollars' worth of valuables by
robbers , who entered through the win
dow. On Saturday night last Mr.
Adolph Siofkin , the cigar box manu
facturer , was garrotcd and robbad by
two men at the gate of his residence
on Davenport street , at the early hour
of 0 p. m. , when many of the resi
dents in that vicinity were passing in
and out of their houses. Mr. Siofkin
was very roughly used , although ho
lost but little money , and wanted his
men brought to justice. Ho gave the
officers a description as nearly ns ho
could , believing ho could recognize the
man who hold him down , if ho saw him
again.
Officer Frank Kaspor had boon at
work on the Little case , and having
several pointers , had his eyes on
several parties. On hearing the de
scription of "Mr. Siefkin's assistants ,
ho at once thought ho recognized in
them the same men ho suspected of
lobbing Little's house. Ho worked
the matter up quistly , and learned
that the two men were stopping in a
little red house near Seventh and
Jones street and not far from
Motz's brewery. Ono of thcso men
was Jim Murphy , a character feared
by all the residents in that part of
town. Kasper had learned that ho
was nt the Slavcn house , from which
ho was fired out , about 11 o'clock on
the night of the garroting , and that ho
afterward spent money enough to get
very drunk , at a 10th street saloon.
At 4 o'clock on the morning of the
Little robbery Kaspor mot the same
man on the corner of 15th and Farn
am and consequently Imd him down
pretty fine.
The other man was described as
having a fair complexion , heavy sot ,
etc. , the dotcription answering to
William Kirtland , a notorious offender
against the law and a pal of Murphy's.
Kasper arranged to hayo Mr. Sief-
kin go down and got a sight at the
mon before making the arrests , and
from the window of a neighboring
house the victim saw Jim Murnhy
whettintr up two villainous looking
knives in his raom near by , recogniz
ing him at once as tnp man who
had bent over him in holding
him down and k whoso face > vas
plainly seen in thought from a win
dow. Ho at once informed the offi
cer that this was the bird , and Frank
telephoned for Hazen and McOlure ,
but before they could get down the
follow Kirtland got an inkling of
what was going on and skipped out to
take a glance at Siefkin. The oppor
tunity was seized by Kasper
to 'stop up to the house , and
see through the window that Murphy
was in the act of lathering his chin ,
preparatory to taking a shave- and
that his two knives * were lying on a
chair beside him. Frank slipped in ,
and taking him by the arm ordered
him to "drop that razor , " which ho
did. "What is this for ? " said Mur
phy. "You'll find out quick enough , "
said Kaspor. At this moment
Kirtland came running toward
the house seeing the trouble and Siof
kin said , "We want that man , too. "
Ho was also secured at the point of a
revolver , and Hazen , McOlure and
Doty arriving , the pair were hustled
off to jail to await a hearing that will
probably start them on their way
to the penitentiary , where the
officers say they ought to have
been years ago. The whole neighbor
hood is jubilating over the riddance of
the rubbish.
Take it all in all this case has been
one of the best worked up by any
officer for years , and to Officer Kas-
per belongs the whole entire credit.
He kept his own counsel and accom
plished the object in a way worthy of
a field marshal.Kasper has been on
the force about a year , and is ono of
the shrewdest , bravest and most sue-
cearful officers on the force , and , wo
are happy to say , one of the first men
nominated by the mayor to serve on
the new police forco.
A. BOLD PLAN.
For several weeks past it has been
known that a gang o ! which these
men were supposed to bo tbo leaders
had planned the robbery of ono of the
heaviest jewelry establishments in the
city , expecting to get $15,000 worth
of plunder by the scheme. The
oflicors had a pointer and wore watch
ing their mon , but this will knock the
game in the head as the other throe
members of the gang have fled.
INTENT ON KOBllEUY.
Wodnecdey as Mr. M. A. McNa"
mara and wife left their residence in
a phaeton to go le the Standatd club
party , they observed three men , who
stopped out in the darkness and fol
lowed them for some distance , finally
separating and disappearing. On
reaching town Mr. MoNamara got nn
officer and sent him back with the
driver to look after things until his
return homo. Ho thinks the men
wore tramps watching for an oppor
tunity to pounce on somebody , and
they followed him all the way from '
Kountze and Ruth's addition to 15th
and Howard streets.
