The ptjcfetico of .Messrs , Callaway
Kimball , iMlllor , Shelby and half u do/eii
other railroad men , in the lobby of tin
I'axton , yc-.turd.iy betokened a meet
inj ; of railroad magnates of some import
nncc. Later Messrs. Himobaugh and
Mcrriatn of this city , Patrick Kgan , ol
Lincoln and about a do/on other gruii
men from dih"oront parts of the Mutt
wore seen to confer with the railroad
mun and finally disappear into room 00 ,
A reporter for the HKI : undertook It
learn from Mr. nimobaugh the cause ol
thu meeting , l > nt Mr. Ilimebaugh wa <
not in an accommodating mood. Ho was
nut disposed t-sgivo satisfactory , kuowl
udtrful answers , mid reiterated the de
hire thatthoHKK would savnnthlugaboiil
thu subject. Ho did not sl.itc , however ,
that n feeling of di atisfaction at tin
treatment they had received from the
railroads , was entertained by the grain
Hhippcrs , who , he. claimed , was siidering
from the dullness of the period and Ihu
backward condition of the corn crop.
In wlnit manner the grain dealers had
been treated to warrant th attention
being paid them by the railroad men.
Air. llimcbaugh would not say , and
seemed to feel that incalculable ) damage
would bo done to possibility of redress if
the Hun should at all revert to the matter.
The management of the all'air was in the
hands of a few , aiii : there seem " \ to ba a
desire to confine a knowledge of it to as
few , even grain men , as possible. The
ItKB man reeo 'ii/.c-l froni dealers on the
floor who had heard nothing of the pro
posed meeting until the reporter directed
their attention to those who were man
aging the gathering. liven then some of
them were fro/.on away with no more
hope than the reporter of divining the
can.se of the meeting. The railroadmen
wore a party to the heereey and each and
every one of them pleaded secresy and
confidence as reasons for their silence.
The two elements held a second meeting
in Ilio afternoon at four o'clock , when
the knowledge of the gathering was as
obi-euro as over.
LATHI. It has sinro been ascertained
that for some time back Hie grain men
have been making little money and have
been driven into tricks and subterfuges
in order to come out even. One of Ihes-j
has been a clandestine cutting of rates ,
which lias f-et some of the dealers bj the
heels. There seemed no way to settle
the maUer unless by a meeting with rail.
road men and that lias been held as above
indicated ; but , although the railroad men
listened to the discussion and told about.
rates when asked from them , yet they
took no pint in HID discussion. They
simply corroborated or domed tno figures
of tin ) contestant or contestoo , when at
length a. half cessation of hostilities was
agreed upon.

It was commonly reported yesterday
that a brakcman had been discharged
in the yards for refusjug to wear the belt

statement was made that re

stick was punished by instant discharge.
Hundreds of men have been dismissed

A Soldier Iiovor'n Crlnio and Ills Cap

The hero of a most sensational crimi
nal romance slept Tuesday night in the
county jail and left yesterday on the
Hock Island train , in company with a
member of the constabulary of Newcas
tle , Henry county , Indiana. The story
of the prisoner's crime as freely given by
himself to the reporter and the manner
of his capture as glowinglv related by
Mr. Louis I ) . Willis , thu ollicer , combine
to form a story of deep interest.
The culprit's name is Maiming lM-
ward ( i. Manning ; ho is about forty years
of age and ot fairly intelligent counto-
, naiico. His figure is ratlmr stooped from
\ years of roughing it and his face although
\-apablo of a heavv growth of beard-
smooth through persistent shaving. In
Ids address ho shows good breeding and
converses intelligently on a largo variety
of topics , historic , literary , etc. His
story as given to Jho loportor in along
conversation at the train yesterday is
much as follows :
"I h'avo sinned against both man and
God , " ho said somewhat reverently ,
"and to expiate the lira ! ollbiise , I shall
now imi-ko full breast at'my crime. The
retribution which iim : will ask will give
mo prompt opportunity for o.\plation before -
fore my Creator , for 1 shall not endeavor
to further elude thu gallows , On the con
trary I rather court the relief it oilers.
In 1801 I was a student in Miami univer
sity in Ohio , and with the greater num
ber of my elqsfimnlea enlisted at the
president's Second call fur men. Instead
of returning to , imr own state , I wont to
Columbus and * entered the Twenty-
second Ohio volunteer ipfiinlry , and with
it joined the fourth corps of thu army
of the Tennessee. 1 saw some lighting
up to the autumn of 'lit , and then at
KnlulinMis , , 1 was miMcrcd into the
marines for services on Footo's llotilla.
One night that winter 1 was shot Irom
3 the shore while on night deck
duty. A squirrel rllhi bullet
struck mo in the back and
entered mv left lung. For months I lay
nt 1'ort Liibson between life and death ,
nnd in the spring , ihnwmg signs of re
covery , 1 was discharged uud went homo.
1 was yet u boy just having entered my
twentieth year , For eighteen months I
remained at homo nursing each uparl ; of

no one , and although tremondoii :
ellbrls were made to upprchent
the murderer , they failed signally. I secretly
cretly lied the country and have novel
since been c.'ist of theMi ouri. I have wandered

engaged in every character of oeetipa

easily a low level and kept it well. Yom

have been in Denver , working as

yards. This olliecr hero must not too
strongly claim the credit of mv arrest as
the letter from a third party "betrayin
mv whereabouts was written by myself.
When ho found mo at work Saturday , I
raised no opposition , not oven requiring
him to obtain papers. I am weary ol
existence and will gladly end it at the
law's decree. "
The prisoner IliiMicd and as the train
slowly moved out extended his manacled
hands and shook \vilh the reporter a
hearty farewell.

\Vliy tlie Mayor Voioo 1 Ilio Inspector
Ordinance.
Mayor l.oyd was interviewed yesterday
relative to his veto of the boiler in
fipcctor ordinance
"I opposed the ordinance for several
reasons , ehielly of all , that it is not the
proper measure. Wo want boiler inspector
specter , but wo also want the olllcc.
established properly and so that
it can bo operative. The
ordinance submitted to mo provided
for the appointment of a practical mo-
eliiinie.il engineer and boiler maker.
The man who combines these two
requisites is not to be found. This is
the lir.-t salient season of my objections
such a man , 1 repeat , is not'in tlio city of
Omaha. The requirement "boiler maker"
which was added at the last moment
by the council is fatal to the present or
dinance. Now the ordinance provides
igain tha * the appointee shall examine
did , at a cost of JJil.oi ) , provide certificates
.o all engineers ad judged competent. A
man to sit in judgment upon an engineer
mist himself bo a mechanical engineer.
lie must be a man thoroughly advised of
every detail of a furnace and boiler ,
lie Hues. the steam pressure ,
the tensile strength of iron ,
; tc. Such a man \yoiild bo supremely
competent for the ollico , but in all prob-
ibilily he would not know the first thing
ibout boiler mailing. Ho is the intelli-
jcnco while the boiler maker is the
.killed labor , who can properly follow
ho plans of the first , but might not bo
iblo to design the simplest detail of a
loilor. 1 ufso except to the three years
crm of service which is too long and to
ho line system which is to exacting.
lowever 1 believe that those matters
will bo amended and the city will short-
y bo provided with a boiler inspector as
t needs. As far as that point is concern-
! ( ( _ , however , I think that every man in
his city in whoso business a boiler is rp
ipdrcd , ' has it regularly inspected at his
> wn cost. Thoru'lias been , to my know-
edge , butono boiler explosion in Omaha
within the last twenty years , and that
was in Metis's brewery some threu or
'our years ago. "

Music hath charms to sooth the savage
in-east , but not that of the mother-in-
law. Tom Williams is a young man
living on north Fourteenth street , who
liasjust discovered the truth of this say-
ng to his sorrow. Tom is fond of play
ing the banjo , The other day his mother-
in-law came to his house and domiciled
herself for good in his mansion. She
started to run things iu a most high-
landed stylo. Firot of all , she ordered
Pom to stop playing the banjo. A scries
of rows resulted , which ended Tuesday
night in a serious scrape. Tom drew a
revolver and a r-i/or and swore to rid the
world of his mother-in-law Before ho
could execute nis threat lie was in tlio
strong arms of Ollicers Urady and
Dempsoy.
Yesterday the mother-in-law did not put
in her appearance to prosecute Tom ,
ami ho will probably bo released.
A Crook In Jail.
Pat Ilannon , one of the toughest char
acters in the western country , is now in
[ all walling a trial. He was arrested by
Jnpt Cormack in Kil. McClulIan's
saloon on Flftoonth street , on the charge
of being a suspicious character. When
Drought before Jmlga Stenberg yesterday
norning , ho demanded a jury trial. The
jury has been struck and the trial will
take place to-morrow.
Ilaiiuon , as already intimated , is a hard
one. Hisgnncral reputation is that of a
lirst-class all-around crook and cracks
man , so the police say. Ho lias traveled
throughout the west under several
iliases , among them , Carroll , Foley ,
llaiinon and others , lie will bo rcmem-
jored as ono of the men who were snp-
> osed to bo implicated in tlio robbery of

Hunting on tlio Yellowstone ,
Col , Kingniuu , of the engineering
ollico of the Department of the
'latto , remarked to a reporter
yesterday that strict cllbrts were bo
ng made by the government to keep all
iiinters out of Yellowstone park , and
hat those efforts were being very suc
cessful. "Tho latest dodge o ( sportsmen
o escape detection while hunting in the
mrk has just been reported to mo , " he
said. "It is the use of wood powder ,
vhich is almost noiseless , though moro
ixploslve lliau ordinary gunpowder. In
his way some of them have managed to
milt in thu park without being caught.
A sharp lookout is being kepi for these
oHowa , and very few of them ever man-
igo to hunt there without suffering for

a complicated surgical instru

Hereafter ho will not carry dangerous-

We are told that an advertisement is a Public Notice , offered for the
benefit of those to whom it is addressed , The merchant who advertises
judiciously more than often , does so for a public interest and not for an
injury. But when an inferior article is advertised for no other purpose
but to dispose of it , simply because ib is cheap in price , and would not
paove a satisfaction to the consumer if he got it for nothing , is no justice
no mant' mind need be jagged on this subject , for our fore-fathers had
the same experience that still proves an every day occurrence with the
people of today. Now in all the advertising of The Only Misfit Clothing
Parlors , 1119 Farnam St. , they have never as yet mentioned anything
they could' not fill for their customers , and above everything they have
never pretended to offer the public anything that they could find else
