Chandler has bcon In Washington constantly for about three months , lie seldom goes to the capltol and Is not often seen In any public plnee. For three or four weeks before the officers of the republican coinjresslonal campaign committee - tee wcro selected Mr. Clinndlor .was seen at tno rooms ot Representative Colt oC West Virginia almost nightly. It was suspected at that tlmo that n movement for Mr. Dlaino was about to bo mndc , as Mr. Chand ler Is the Plumed Knight's most val iant lieutenant. As Is well known , the olllcors of the committee are staunch Hlnlnomen , and those who are op posed to Hlalno , and who asplicd to the po sition were defeated. Since tlio organization or the committee Mr. Chandle.r has been about the loom a great deal , and has been In pilvate consultation with Chairman Uoff. It Is expected that Mr. Chandler has In prco- aiatlon a series of nitlclcs to bo given to the press touching upon the rejection by the navy department of the Dolphin , nnd the crushing down of John Itoaeh's ship yard. lie has In his possession some copies of cor- ic i > oiulcnco passing between Captain Hoi- knap , who has command ot the Dolphin , and the present secretary of thu navy. The dispatches from Captain Uulknap are all fa voluble to the Dolphin , while tlio tenor of Secretary Whitney's in- structure nnd telegrams aio against a suc cessful test of the ship. It Is likely that tlio activity of Mr. Chandler and his conferences uro on the quest ion of publishing tilts mat ter. At any rate , It is believed that one Im portant step Is about to bo taken and that It is Intended to boom Blalno's .stock. A democratic member of the house , > \ ho , upon Ills own volition , ictiics from public life at tlio expiration of his present term , spoke pretty freely to your correspondent to day concerning the outlook of the demociatlc campaign this tall.

Wo have about a do/en men who iisplic to tlio leadership , and not one of them Is willing to let the other make a good point bt cause of the credit which would accrue to him. We have fouuht among omselvcs on the olcomai- garine bill and wo have quarreled over an in crease In appioprintions , and there is no harmony In anything. A number ot democrats who have political sense have suggested a caucus at which .soniu Id lid of an understanding would be arrived atand by uhich boiue one man could be acieed upon as a leader ; but the jealous men have biokcn up any move in that direction. We hao sim ply como Into great strcnctli In a moment , and have been using that strength to break down our own party.

Some of the Improvements of Omaha's Liveliest Sunurh. The real estate and building boom is not confining itself entirely to this city of Omaha , but is spreading lo South Omaha and tlio stock yards. No town in the state , probably , of its si/.e , is growing vith the same , rapidity and in as substan tial a manner as South Omaha. Sub stantial brick nnd frame buildings are going up on every side , both business houses and private dwellings. The value of real estate. : s advancing rapidly , not froni tin * qll'orts 6fentorprismg real estate agents , as none of them have yet inter ested themselves , to any extent , in South Omaha , bill from natural causes , such as as the increase in population and the cor responding increase in the demand for I'iiijdjng' , , sites. Noticeable nmong the now buildings which have been erected during tlio past month or so , is Frank Pavorika's two-story brick building , creeled at a cost of about $2OoO , Bruno Strathmann is just putting the finishing touches on n Jarge two-story Iramo build- in'sl vvJiIeli lib will shortly occupy as a ho tel and boarding house. When completed jtwill have cost $2t)00. The stock exchange hotel , which is likely , from its name , to bo confused with the stock exchange , belonging to the stock yards company- was completed early in tlio spring , and is ' { " Jarjfp ; substantial two-story brick 'building. ' * Two small frame buildings , which arc used as meat markets , have boon built this spring , one by Frank Pa- vonka and the other by l < rcd Wascn. Sloan As Saxe , are , preparing to raise their store building to two full stories with Hat roof and to extend it back twenty feet. Valentine Lipp has nearly completed a .

A good many buildings are under headway , including the nuw psiejviug house , which are not included m tjie ljst , < besides llicro are a good many cottages in the outskirts of the town thai liavo been omitted. A year ago a corner lot located near the business udntcr of the town was sold for $100 , and the same lot changed hands again a few days ago at frJ.OOO. Another piece of property wluoli was bought last fall for $700 sold a few days ago for $2,500. Values on oilier lots have ad vanced m like proportion. DUOri'KU TO THIS IIASI3M ISN'T. The Fate of an Dm ploy o of the Amer ican District Teloj-raph Company. On Monday morning , about 0 o'clock , an accident happened in tlio building of the Western Union Newspaper union. Twelfth street , between Howard and Jackson , which came near resulting fa tally. .The building is a three-story brick , with a high basement. It has an elevator running from the latter to the top story. On the third Ilooi is the American cookery manufactory. Hero Henry Nugent-tho parcel delivery boy of the American district telegraph , got on the elevator to descend lo tlio ground lloor. In the descent n chip became wedged between the elevator and thu sides of the shaft , and brought the former to a stand , The wire cable continued , however , to uncoil , as if the vohiojo wore descending. The weight of tholad soon forced the elevator fren of the impediment , and the wire having by this time been unrolled to Its full length , the whole thing lell to the basement lloor. Young Niifjeut was thrown backward against the arch of the elevator and sustained a nut-it .painful wound on the head. Yesterday - torday It was rumored the lud hud died , but it was found happily to bo unfounded. It will rc/iuire.sonit ! time to enable young Nugent to bo about. Jim Lee in Ijlinho. One of the worst toughs that Jrrcr in- llictod Oj-jiha irrril Tils presence Is Jim Lee , who fora number of years past has made life uncomfortable for the residents of Wq t Cutnlng Street. Something over a year ago Jim was arraigned before Judge Sfb-iberg nnU sent to the county jail for ninety day ? Iqr having brutally beaten a policouiuii who had been scut to arrest him. Ho had been in jail about thirty days when ho was let out to aid In the construction of a trench across the court hou.se grounds under the direction of M , Loahuy. Leo watched his oppor tunity and when ho caught Lcahoy in the bottom of the ditch ho shoved another prisoner in upon him nnd made his es cape. Ilohas been away from tun city for nearly u sear and returned on Satur day night. Iln was picked up yesterday afternoon by this police amt sent to the jail to servo out ino rest of his lino. Cricket. The "return match" between two ptckcil "olovcns" of the Union Paeilio ami B. & M. headquarters came olT yes terday on the old B. & M. grounds , and with the two Innings played out resulted In favor of the latter by 83 runs. The victory was plainly duo to the line batting of Messrs. Kustis , Vaitghan , Taylor and Beall , and the oflectivo bowling of W F. ( trillltlis. "jr. , and the Vauglian brothers. The Holding on both sides , during tlio lirst Inning , was faultless , Ihat of Mr. Shakcshaft for the losing being particu larly noticeable. Subjoined Is the score in Jot all : II.
