The Grat sensation which has happened -
penod for a long tlmo in the way of an
attempted train robbery , formerly no
common along the line between Oanaln
and San Franclaco , was that reported
by telegraph from Montolia , a station
on the Central Pacific , on Sunday
morning. Seven of the pastenpois on
that train passed through Omaha last
evening on the Union Pacific , nnd
from ono of these was obtained eomo
additional particulars of intcrcat re

On Sunday morning the pueaeni rn
were awakened by a shot being liroJ
and an unusual noise , aa o ? some ono
pounding on a car door , nnd on in
vestigating found that the oxp'.vsa cur
had boon detached from the train.
A couple cf guarda on either sidi >

incarcerate him with others In thu
tank house , wan what our Informant
i saw , when ho first eteppid out upon
| the , plu f jrui. The engineer , fireman
and brakemen haa preceded the con
ductor and nero oafoly lodged awaf.
Iho original plan was to ditch the
train and the switch had been left
open for that purpose , but the engin
eer eaw the danger in time and stopped
his train. When ho got tiT to see
what the danger was ho was captured
and with the other members of
the crow impiisonod , The express
car was "cut out" by the
bandits , who then began the
attack by smashing in the panes on
both aides of the car , nnd ohooting
through It in nil directions , baing
stubbornly resisted by the Wollu ,
Fargo messenger , Air , HOBS. K ts
1 was struck by two shots , ono hitting
I him in the hand and the other in the
hip , but neither hnrt him badly , lloab
returned the fire , being guided by the
ooundn outsldo. IIo fired through thereof
roof at the robbers who hnd climbed
on top , and fired six or uovon shots
through the orid of the car on the
robbers worn uncoupling. The
priconera in the tank houao hennl
the robbers nay thnt ono of their

Koin dragged the iron si f j to ono tide [
of the cir , put thu wooden chest on

armed with n six shooter and a double
burrolod shotgun , and bluzud awny tin

died to burn him out , but ho rofuied
, to uurrondor. They wont nf'or wood

to get more , but did not find it.
Iloaa kept them at bay nntil the
west bound passenger train came
up , but the robbers ordered the con
ductor to mo7o on , and ho moved
eg. with his train.
It was expected that ho would ro-
turn efior running n short distance
and drlvo off the robbers , but ho did
not. The robbers returned to the
attack on Ross , buc ho hold out until
another train came along In about

Just at present the topic of the
hoar is how to got out of a burning
- building , and fire escapes are being ; i ?
largely dlesussod and introduced.
Nowhall was well provided with fire
escapes. The trouble with the whole
system cf escapes is ; The atrangora >
- know nothing about them , and in heat
confusion and din and omoko of a great >
fire nobody knows where they are or
kow to uio them.
Common sonao suggests tlmt xlova-
tors bo abolished or so built as not rate
bo fire conductors. It is noticeable in
all the late great fires that the eleva
tors have played a conspicuous part In ' }
spreading the fhmos and smokoand
cutting off the escape of the victims.
If the elevator In the Nowhall
lionsQ had been properly bailt
nil thopoopla could have boon saved ;
for in the first place no such fire could
have happened. The shaft of that
olovotor conducted smoke and sparks
and lliimo to the top otory just us fast
as they could rise , and cut off all escape -
capo by way of the acoastotnod route.
Honoo the bewilderment of all thoao
of all thoao smoke strangled people.
,
Elevators can bo built so aa to bo
the very boat of fire canapes , And atm
the same tlmo act as aids in suppres
sing the iUmos ; and next to the eleva
tor , the stairway is the best fire escape
if huilt properly.
Lotfhero bo an ordinance paaaod
compelling all hotels , theaters , public
halls and school buildings using do-
Vitnrs to build fire proof ohafts I. o. .
shifts from ground to roof built of
brick or boiler iron , and shut oft by
Iron doors from each atory , with the
elevator platform running "tiht fit"
so as to keep out thu cmoko from
above and below , running on Iron
gocra. Such an elevator would go up
and down through fire and etnoko and | |
empty story by itory , if the tire
originated below or nbovcj nnd it will
bo seen the olovbtcr lias an outer open
ing on a street. Any tonsiblo iircbi
tect could soon dovlso tuch a lifo pro-
tooting soneiblo elevator.
The next beat , and adjunct , is teed
abolidi by otdinanco open baluttorod
stairways In public buildings. They
are good fire conductors. Build box '
stairways with iron cut-oils at each
landing , so as to confine emoko and
fire to the itory where It originates.
Several stairways , with "pirTo the
stairs" under each g s jot in all hall *
ways , wonld bo a great help to guests.
Again , all cut-off daora should swing
on double-jointed spring hinges , to
open either way , and all outer door
should bo in ado to swing into the
street.
Suppoio Nowhall to hare been so
built , It might have burned down ,
bat no ono would have been burned
to death , and It would have taken
hours instead of minutes to consume.
I have no faith in the common con
trivances called fire escapes , because
they are never thought ot by the ono
who needs them.
Those precautions nro needed , oven
in otherwise fire proof buildings , bo-
| cauto the contents of a fire proof
building cf ten barn and eprcod by
stairways and olovatoro , from story to
story , destroying all. * * * .
MEDICAL LEGISLATION.
The Bill Now Before tbo Nebraska
OMAHA , .Tannary 23 , 1883.
To the Bailer of Tl.s HKK.
A bill now pending bcforo the stnto
Icgiuluturo , introduced by Mr. Ses
sions , and reid for the eccond time on
January 10 , 1883 , having for Itn okjsct
the establishment of a atato board of
health for certain eanitnry objects and
for the regulation of the practice ( f
medicine , hna attracted my attention ,
Of ita sanitary measures I have no'h-
ing to aiy , but itd medical regulation
feature in eomothirg that should oc
cupy the attention of all medical men ,
Tiiia act proposes to establish a board
of five medical man , to bo graduates of
reputabloinedicalcollcgco ( \ somewhat
torn. ) , to bo appointed by the
governor of the state. Three msm-
bora of thb board shall constitute a
quorum , nnd they nro given power by
thin act , not only to demand a diplo
ma from the practitioner , bnt , if a
mijority of thu board think lit , an
examination ai well , and according to
section 13 of this hot they can "aninil
any certlDito upon proof that the
holder has been guilty of immoral or
unprtfdasional conduct" vague terras
those , of which that mme majority are
to bo alone the judges. Now this
act socms to mo very arbitrary. In
the first plaoo , thoj'govornor of the
stnto is not a competent judge c f med-
cal men enough to appoint such a
biard. Ir. senna to be n kind of royal ,
coniiiiisilon given to whom the govern
or thinks most needs the place , and if
ho in a ropublicinora dernucrator nnti-
nionop , ho v/ill bo apt to make it a po
. lltical instead of a medical beard. Wo
do not need legislation for individuals ,
wo need it moro for those monoy-mak-
itii ; corporations , the medical colleges ,
who , all ot them , are legally chartered
to grant diplomat ) . If legislation la to
domund from tbo practitioner nn ex
amination it ought to demand a much
more etrlngont ono from all toachew
in nicdic.il tchools. Instead of that
tlio law regarding the chartering of
medical colleges is so lax ( hat nny two
or three men with moans enough cm
got n charter in ton dayo tlmo educa
tion or not and grind out aa many
atndonts as they plcauo and all legally.
What wo need in thoau days moro
than nny thing else in a legislative way
is to doprlvo every medical college in
the United States of its licet c'.ng
power and throw it upon onr state
universities or upon a board elected by
the American Medical association , the
only comnetont body fit to elect
board sufliolontly able and unbiased
for all regular practitioners in the
United States. Lot medical schools
teach and an unbiased board examine ,
and quacks will soon become extinct
in the United States. ANON.

AN IMPORTANT CASK.
Which Will be Ar ued In Omaha Tnla

la its railroad column , The Kansas
City Journal says :
"Tho Headlight has n few remarks
tili make on the caco of the Diiuver &
Now Orleano railroad against the
' Atchiaon , Topokn & Santa Fo , which
bo argued tbia week nt Omaha.
. It la a very interesting cwn to r.iilwny
men ! ' , aa it involves the right of n road
' to make exclusive conr.ccHun with
another road. The S.intn Fo had on
groement with the Denver & Rio
Iraudo to p'orato on freight nnd
assongera nt Pueblo , but rifjaed to

desperate action as thu

ondcred pawcrlcen to ttriko back ex
i'pt in a petty and unconseq'ient&l
way. It reduced rates from Ibuver
to Pueblo from enmuthing like $7 to
$1 , and ran. fast trains which enabled
t to make some money on huge Sun
day excursions , but its rival , the Rin
Grande , did the earno thing and reap
ed BO much of u harvest. Then
came the legal plea. The New
Orleans aeked the United States ccurt
to compel the Sitita Fo to prorate and
connect , upon the ground ( f public

that it in against public oollcy to allow
a corporation to run a non-competing
line by excluding it from rights and
rriyilocB accorded a rival line in
which the Santa Fe ia not financially
interested is by many leeal lights con

PLANE FACT i.
A Carpenter's Opinion of Needu of
tbo Trade.
Mr. Elitor : A very important and
practical question nt thia time con
cerns quito & number of the Omaha
carpentora as to thu outlook for busi
ness for the coming acnaon. Some are
asking their friends if they think it
possible that a aaiponter can live in
Omaha another year. Some express
doubta and come declare their inten
tion of leaving town teen 03 possible.
Now then to an outsider thia mr.y
seem atrango talk in a city largo aa
Omaha , where BO great improvement ]
have boon going on for the list five
yeara , and may continue to go on for
I years to como. Well it ia strange
from ono standpoint , but not strange
from another when the facto nro known
aa to the real causes. Suppose the
a/erago building boom in Omaha con-
tinucu to go on for yoara to como under
dor the present modus operand ! , ovnry
Omaha ( nrpontor with six montha of
Omaha experience at the trade ia well
convinced that the longer ho ataya in
Omaha na a carpenter the worse til bo
guts to bo. And why BO ? Now that's
the question to bo solved by the aver
age Omaha carpenter whoia compelled ,
it xroro this winter , to divide ono
meal into three in order to go through
the motion of eating three meals u day.
Now we want to ask cf all con
cerned in the business , as it relates to
our pecuniary interest and welfare ,
would it not bo wise , would it not be
good souse in us to fraternize as mechanics -
I
' chanics and take this matter Into con
sideration in order to roach or mature
some system whereby the trade can

For onr own special benefit wo
have gone over the ground and taken
in the situation from cause to effect as
wo understand it , but do not feel dia-
poau to give out onr ideas or opinions
at thia time , any moro than vo say wed
d ) not think the matter so eorious
but that a remedy can bo found that
will adjust every d fliculty.
It In certainly not assuming too
much to say that if wo have the will
as a class of mechanics wo have the
ability to formulate a system that will
work us benefit as other mechanical
depiutmento have done in Omnha , and
what the carpenters have done in all
the principal cities east of the Mis
souri river.
Now , Mr , Editor , by your permis
sion wo invite interchange of opinion
through the columns of THE BEE with
rdoroica to the propriety of making
the carpenter trade moro respectable
i nnd moro remunerative aa a business
in the city of Omaha and vicinity.

FAILURES AND FIRES.
M , Yates Makes an At-
sigDment ,
A Hastings Hardware Man
Suspends Business.
A Fire and. a Failure Across the Klvor.
During the past few weeks numer
ous rumors have been afloat ns to tbo
probibllity of Mr. Willis M , Yatet ,
the well known Dodge street , grocer ,
suspending btuineaa. They were call
ed out by the numerous failures which
have been recorded in thin city thia
winter and were incrcnsod in number
yesforrJay nnd the roporto confirmed by
the filing in the county clotk'o cfl'ico
of nn Msigumcnt ii duo f jrm by Willis -
lis M. Yatee , to Mr. A. 0. Troup.
About ton daya ago Mr. Yatca stated
thnt on Octobnr 28-h , 1882 , his stock
invoiced $4OCO. It hi.a pinoo bonn
reduced norm * , but ia worth aboot 3 ,
COO to $3,300 Ilia bock accounts
amount to 3,2CO , and hia store fix
tures , safe , two horaca and wagon ,
which ccs : § 2,000 , nro worth § 1OCO
at least Ho WAS owing , all told , 57 ,
000. "Gould I collect try book no
counts , or could I sqll my stock nt in
voicu pnces I could pay all I owe out'
aide of what I owe tl. W. Yatea , who
will allow me to use it in another bun
ines. I have ndvcrtiaad to sell my
buiinoBB , nnd will do BO na soon aa I
can find thu man who will pay mo n
reasonable price , nnd thuj furnish me
with funds to pay my merchandise
dtba : , Sold nil my real estate a year
or moro ago. "
Well informed putlca said they 1
liaved that Mr. Yatca was honest but
WJB iac ined to place his valuation toi
high. Hh atock was eatimated not
worth over $25CO by compete ! t
judpea and hia book account ? , good ,
could not be contidercd worth over
§ 2 COO. Hie fixtures worn also esti
mated at about $703 or $8CO Oou'd
ho hnvo sold out at a good price he
would bo able , doubtless , to pay up ,
bnt ho was considered as hardly sol
vent ut a safe valuation.
Mr. Yatea w 3 nnxioua to front oil
his creditors alike , be aaid , and there
fore did not like to give anyone
special security , being desirous of
going on with his bntincsi if pceaib'o
On the Tenth of January , however ,
ho gave the Nebraska Nathnal bank n
chattel mortgage to secure the pay
ment of two notes dated in October
and duo in 90 r > ya. The imiuuut of
theo iioU-n ia $9uO nnd the security
covcra the atock nnd fixtures of the
etoio , hcraea , etc.
It ia stated on good authority that
the stock will not figure cp over
§ 2COOiu , vnlue , nnd that the book no
counts , which arc good , will no : ex
ceed § 1,000 , while the indebtedness
of the housa will , it ia said , ( xioed
SSOCO. The heaviest local creditors
are thu firms of Stoeln , Johnson &
Co. , "hose clf.im is SI OCO , nnd Mil-
hrd & Pock , about $500 , while Meyer
& Ranpka , Peycke Bros. , and Motcalf
& Bro. , nil lose small sums , IPPB than
$100 each , and Maroney river $100.
Five eastern credltora have claime
in the hands of an attorney here
gregating ? 890. Mr. H. W Y.UCB'
clr.ini is put ut between $3.000 and
? 4 000 , and the balance nro nil mer-
chaudieo clalmr.
FAILUUE AT HASTINO.S.
The Bradstreet agency , from whom
the above particulars are i.btalnnd , in' '
form us of the failure of F. A Ben j i
mln , the hardware merchant nt HUE

the benefit of hia creditors. Ho owed
about fo 000 borrowed money , nnd
$8,000 cr $0 000 in all. His only
assets are his bnolc ecspunts , znmming
np about § 2,000. which have been
turned over to bo collected and np
plied on hia accounts.
