the tilntform of the sloepur. lie was fol
lowed by Deputy Sheriff Groho. and the
next instant the Itiinds of Lowy and
Counselor Woolworth mot in ti warm
Crnsi ) . Smiles Imniediatoly irradiated
the faces of both attorney and client , and
all three walked towards the entrance to
the depot.
Pulling u copy of yesterday's Urns
from liis pocket , Mr. Woolworth , with a
smile upon his face which did not mean
to bo a smile , said : " 1 see the papnr this
morning has Tcnny's ' circular to your
crciiitorrs. " At the same time handed the
paper to Lowy.
"Which paporJ" asked Lowy.
"TheHEi : , " responded Mr. Woolworth.
"Why , I've just reail the paper , " ex
claimed Lowy , "and saw nothing
about , it. "
Mr. Grebe spoke in the same strain ,
and all three diligently sought the pub
lished document , Mr. Lowy's features
still retaining the imperturbable compla-
concv which was lirnt mentioned.
Tenth street was reached and Mr. Woolworth -
worth suggested that Mr. Lowy might
need some refreshments , but Mr. Grcbo
said in a mildly ollicial way that ho
wanted to have the matter over as soon
as possible , and for that reason wanted
Mr. Lowy taken to thu shcrilh
After a little talk it was decided to
take si carriage. Accordingly all three
jumped into the nearest vehicle , while
the WK : reporter chartered a cab , and at
times followed and at others led the great
litigant to the court house.
When the carriage arrived at the court
house , the occupants alighted. Mr.
Woolworth ofleroa : i dollar of his great
fee in payment of the ride , and received
his proper change. When Lowy had
Loon given into thecustodyof the snerilK ,
Mr. Grebe said , "I'll show you some
thing now thai that fello\y in Chicago
wanted me to do. lint I didn't do it. "
He then pulled out of his pocket n pair of
hand-culls , which the Chicago cojnstablo
had suggested for Lowy. The latter
smiled as lie remarked that he had not
worn them.
Whuii Mr. Woolworth had gone , the
UEK reporter approached Mr. Lowy and
asked him if he had read Mr. Smith's
story about not having got a cent out of
the sale of hi" stock.
"Yes sir , 1 have. "
"Might 1 ask what yon have to say
concerning his statement that lie derived
no advantage from the transaction ? "
"It's a - lie , that's what it is.
It's gotten up to try and get money out
of mo because lie thinks I have got
some loft. Hut ho won't get it. It's sim
ply a game of blackmail. " -
' . 'Win-re is Mr. Cole now ? "
"Ho is in Chicago. "
"Will ho also come here ? "
"Ho certainly will , if I desire him
to. "
"Whoro is Smith now ? "
"I don't know. I suppose ho is in
Canada. "
"Since yon read Smith's statement ,
have you written to or heard directly
from liim upon the subject of the sale ? "
"No , sir ; 1 haven't.
"Have you heard from him before or
since in an indirect manner ? "
"Yes. His attorney , or ono of them ,
Tunny , of Chicago , wrote mo and said
tiiat Smith wanted money , but I told him
I would n't give him a cent. Then
Smith came out with his statement. "
"Yon say then that is no truth in his
letter ? "
" 1 do. Yes , sir ; most emphatically !
"Is Smith to bo brought hero ? "
"I understand that he has been offered
immunity , and that will probably bring
him hero. "
"You say his sale to you was a bona
lido allair , and you can prove it ? "
"Yes , sir ; I can prove it. "
"What will bo the next stop in your
caco ? "
"I can't toll you , sir. My attorney will
bo able to tell von all aboul thai. "
Tlio ArrcHt of Jjowy.
A special telegram to the BEK from
Chicago , dated Juno 15 , gives the follow ,
ing particulars of Low.y's arrest in that-
city on Monday by Deputy Sheriff Gobo :
"It was blinply a case of kidnaping.
and the whole schcmo Is one for black
jnall , " Haiti Attorney Frank I' . Itoynolds this
morning. lie relenoil to the anvst ot'JInl-
man Lowy , a wealthy mourn- lender , on a re
quisition from the state of Nt'brasUu , anil his
tuklin : uwny bt'foro n writ of habeas corpus
coulil bu M'rvi'd In the caso. About llu : : )
o'clock yesturcluv imimliij , ' Deputy Slieiilf
Lk'hnindt , ncciiinpaiiK'd by lli-nry ( ! reln\
deputy hluTltf from Oimihu , arrested Lowy nt
thu olllco of his nttoinry. ( iralm was around
with a remilhlllon for Lowy from tlio gover
nor of .NchmMcn , where Lowy Is wanted ,
on the charge of being nn acces
sory before nnd after tlio fact
to tlio fraiidulunt tnmstVr of Loyal L.
Bwlth's slock of nu'ichnndlH1. As soon'ns
the nirest was inado the ollicors placed Lowy
In acarringo and conveyed him to thu noon
train of the Itiirlliigton railroad , and at 1'J:15
he stinted on his western trip. Reynolds
II led u petition for a writ of Imhras corpus ,
which was Kiantedby .Indue Collins. Tlio
writ was Ih.sued but It came too late , as the
twin had departed. Tlio attorney caused
telegrams to bo sent out on MI vend roads ,
thinking to Intercept the oitlcers and Lowy
HI id Induce them to return and test the
strength of the habeas corpus proceeding ,
Whether they received any or the telegrams' is
not known as Ihev made no reply. It is I rue ,
however , that they did , not turn backward In
their Hlght. Tim smooth manner In which
the arrest was made and thu shrewdness with
which It was planned so us to catch the west-

surprised Lowy and his Iriends , who had no
time In which to obtain proceedings which
would Intcrfeie with Mr. Lowy's distasteful
western excursion. _
Grcliu'H Htory.
Deputy SlioriH * Grebe is care-worn. Ho
hits been away from hero since Friday.
Ho left on that day for Chicago , with a
requisition from Governor Dawcs re
questing the delivery of Lowy from Illi
nois on tjo ( charge of "aiding , abetting
mid procuring tho. disposition of goods

fraud creditors. " Tlio requisition was

nblo building on the corner of Dearborn

nrinud with a warrant and went straight
toLowy'.s olllco , while Grebe who know
that Lo.wy know him , remained in the
carriage. In half an hour Lowy and
Matsou Appeared and without any cieiuy ,

The Information.
The information filed by District Attor
ney Estollo is'a .volumninus document.
It bears daty of Juup. 3/16SO , and has
since that time been slumbering in the
ollinoof Ulerk Mams. It sets forth the
indebtedness of L , L. Smith , liHo of this
county to Iho extent of nt Icnst $100,000 ;
of his powewlon of a certain amount of
goods valued nt least at | . " > ,000 , and
charges him with a sale to Lowy to tic-
fraud siiJd creditors , and informs against
Lowy in such purchase as an alder and
abettor of tlio said Smith in the attempt
to defraud ,
Jinwy In Jnll.
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Woolworth ,
Mr. Lowy's attorney , made application
to Judge Neville to have the prisoner ad
mitted to bail. The application was
granted and the ball ( ixcd in the sum of
$10,000. After the disposition of
the other business of tlio day
Judge Neville held court open until
nearly 0 o'clock. At that time Mr. Lowy's
bail had not been secured and court ml-
journep. Mr. Lowy was kept in charge
of the sheriff until 7 o'clock when lie was
taken to the county jail where ho spent
the night. It is staled that the
required bail has been secured
and will boofTorcd to the court thlsinoru-
iug.
lion , < TnmcH Woolworth.
Mr. Woolworth was seen by n HF.I : re
porter and said that the first thing to be
done would be to enable Lowy to pro
cure bail. Judge. Neville would bo in
court during the day , and it was thought
probable that the application would be
made before the day was over. When
the case would come to trial or who the
bondsmen would bo ho had not tlio re
motest idea.
General Ccnvln.
This gentleman was seen yesterday
and asked if lie had anything to do with
Lowy's return. Ho smiled significantly ,
and said that he guessed ho had. He had
procured the requisition , and when
asked if he thought Lowy could ho con
nected , said : "There's no doubt about it.
If there is such a tiling as justice in Doug
las county , Lowy can be convicted. "
"Has anything been done towards
bringing Smith back ? "
"There has , but I can not tell you any-
tiling more about it. "
Sonic Opinions. "
The arrest of Lowy was the theme of
general conversation yesterday , and re
vived the expression ot the opinions of
belief or distrust in .tho affidavits of
Smith to the effect that the sale of his
store to Lowy was a fraudulent one.
With n great many it was merely a mat
ter of choice as to whoso affidavit should
bo accepted. Smith's story alleges fraud
and Lowy's and Colo's emphatically
deny it.
Iiowy IlnH the Property. .
The following telegram from Chicago
gives the ruling of a tribunal in-tliat city
detrimental to Lowy's case :
CmcAflo , Juno 15. The demurrer In the.
creditors' hill of IX 1C. Teiiny. trustee ,
against llulumn Lowy anil Lewis Uf.lo to re
cover judgment for 8l'Ar , ooo was ovei ruled by
J wigs 1 larker to-day. The judgment was re
covered against Loyal L. Smith , of Omaha ,
who is charged with uiaklmr at ham sale of
StiM.OOO worth of goods , purchased on time , to
Lowy. The demurrer contended that Teiiny
hud made no effort to collect the judgment
from Smith , and that the subject matter was
pending In tlio lederal court of Nebraska.
The court held that it was too apparent that
Smith possesses nothlm : ami that the urop-
erty is held by Lowy & Cole.

KNOCKED OUT RIVALS ,
Uster & Russell's ' Great Cable Line Con
tracts.
They Heal All the Knst.
It was nn excellent picco of Informa
tion which was yesterday brought to
Usher & Russell , the iron workers and
founders of Bedford Place , that their bid
for doing tlio iron work of tlio proposed
cable line had been accepted by the com
pany. The news was grateful for the
reason that the competition was of the
heaviest nature , having been taken part
in by the leading foundries of thocounty.
'J ho world-famed works of the Pullman
car company , nt Pullman , IIl.t yitll
another largo institution at Louisville ,
and u third one at St. Louis , with n re pil
lion all over the country , were among
the competitors. Kaeh of these had learned
of the fact of Usher fe Hussclt locatingj
In this city , and immediately became
endowed with the idea of doing them up.
They thought , and rationally , too , that It
would bo a master stroke of rivalry if
they should bo able to beat Usher & Uus-
sell on their own ground , and divert to
another center the money for tlio incep
tion of the cable line , which must de
pend upon Omuha for its support.
But Usher & Hu sell knew with \vlioln
they had to deal. They knew the
facilities of their competitors. They also
know theii' ability to stand an order upon
which they might get considerable adver
tisement if but little money. Accord
ingly , they set their figures at a height
which while actually the lowest , were yet
of such a nature that they could make
money in the job while tlielrcastern com-
pctitors would lose it. This fact , there
fore is one which persons needing iron
work in his state may well bo proud of. It is
indisputable in its force. It demonstrates
that as iron makers and workers. Usher
& Hussoll can not only compote with , but
even outdo eastern competition. The
fact will become more patent day by day ,
according as this excellent linn have their
name extended throughout the terri
tory west of us. It is for that
trade that they are bidding , and that
trade they will get. Just as utiro as the
grocery jobbers of this city have driven
the Chicago houses from Nebraska and
the far west , so sure will Usher & Husscll
drive the eastern founders from within
the same territory.
The work of making the castings , the
yokes , the bearings , the shaves and col
umns will bo entered upon immediately ,
It is in active demand and is needed for
laying this summer. The reliability of
Usher & Russell in getting the material
out at the earliest day and before tlio
time expires for the same will bo another
evidence of this excellent lirm who have
practically a great world west of them to
depend on.
School Commencement.
The graduating exercises of the high
school will take place at the opera house
this year on Thursday evening of next
week. There will be eighteen or nine
teen graduates , which is not certain
owing to the fact that ono scholar is
straining every nerve to ' 'make ' up" in
her studies in order to graduate with tlio
class of this year. It is yet uncertain
whether she will bo able to accomplish
the task ,
There will be no regular manual train
ing exhibition this year , though Professor
Bumann , who has charge of this branch
of the work , will try to have a sort of
informal collection of the pupils' work
placed on exhibition for the benefit of
those who want to ceo the practical ad-
yanco made by the young carpenters and
joiners. i
Superintendent James is very enthusl- '
astic over tlio restultof the manual train
ing experiment. "The pupils who have
been at work but nine months are now
abb to turn out work , " ho said , "which
would rellect credit on n professional
carpenter. Some ot the articles they
tmn out are marvellously constructed.
Another thing 1 have noticed is that the
experiment has succeeded admirably in
keeping ( lie boys down to their studies.
In former years many of them hayo be
come dissatisfied and fallen out before
the end of the year. Now , however , of
the seventy-nine boys who commenced
in tlio high school last fall , seventy-three
still remain. They sen and appreciate
tlio beauties of the manual training sys
tem , and arc contented and happy. "
Sweeping SlK of Omaha's Growth.
There are many little things that pre
sent themselves in detail which show that
Omaha has ordered its metropolitan
wedding garment and that it will bo
ready for dcliyory very soon. Leviathans
in building construction and manufac
turing establishments are not always
necessary to show the transition from tlio
"little" to the "great" city. For in
stance , tlio appearance of a "reg'lar
Lunnun chimney sweep" was quite n
metropolitan straw for a trans-Missouri
municipality. The fact that he had no
difficulty in securing patronage was also
significant. On the top of a chimney
that stood on a one-story house ,
corner of Jones nnd Thirtcentii
streets' his first operations began. Be
smeared and bosmiittcd ho plied his vo
cation , the rope with cleansing attach
ments scientilieaily goinsr up and down.
like a man bobDing for eels. His high
comical cup attracted attention and the
fact that ho harangued the gathered
crowd with well-timed remarks on the
utility of chimney cleanliness added in
terest to the scene. SulHce to say , the
sweep Wus the sensation of the hour on
Thirteenth street , and he will probably
create a larger crowd when ho visits
morq aristocratic- localities , for high liv
ing , it is said , does not dull curiosity , no
matter what the other effects may bo.
For the Pytlitnn I'rlzc.
Tlio coming meeting of tlio supreme
lodge of the world ami competitive- drill
of the Knights of Pythias at Toronto ,
Ontario , promises to bo the most import
ant event yet known in thn 'history of this
worthy organization. Every place of
note in the United States and Canada
will bo represented , and Omaha nvill
send a corps of scientilie marchers that
will undoubtedly do the city credit.
Myrtle , Lily and Douglas divisions of thu
uniformed rank are working hard , nnd
the best men will be formed into a com
pany to contest for the honors at Toronto.
Nearly every city and town in Nebraska
where there is a Pythian lodge will send
delegations to Toronto , nnd it is expected
they will rendezvous in the city for the
forward march ,

PAXTOX YlBIiljIKftlllONVOUKS
What They Arc Doing for Oninhn.
A reporter of the BEK being informed
the other day that all of the foundry , ma
chine shop ami architectural iron work
formerly ordered from abroad for use in
the city was now mamitaeturod by the
Paxton and Vicrling Iron Works , made a
visit to the works on the U. P. Ry on 17th
st. , to see how it was done.
He was met by Robt. Vierling , Vice
Prcs. , nnd A. J. Vicrling Mgr. , and by
them was shown over the premises. The
changes made by the now management
are apparent from 17th st. The olllco
building which formerly stood near thu
machinershop , has been moved out close
to the street to give more room for build
ings , required for the manufacture and
storage of work on hand and that
awaiting shipment. The main buildings
have ueen added to and have
undergone extensive repairs. In every
dcparimentsomething new in machinery
nnd fixtures meet the eye , and everywhere -
, _ where there is evidence of unusal activ
ity and enterprise. Tlio foundry has
been extended to more than double itn
former capacity , and is now , with ndded
appliances , much better adapted to
speedy ami first-class work. Along the
L. P. track are bins and buildings , tilled
with sand from Illinois , Iowa and Mis
souri , coke from Pennsylvania ami coal
from Nebraska ami Iowa , unloaded di-
rectlv from the cars , liujre piles of pig
iron shipped from the south and cast and
unloaded close to the track , give some
indication of thu amount of material
required to carry on a business so exten
sive. The machine shops arc 40x100
feet and are occupied by a perfect net
work of belts and machinery in motion.
About ) 100 men are engaged in all the de
partments and a mucli larger number
will 1)0 ) employed when further extensions
nnd improvements have been completed
To the cast of the main buildings are
manufactured articles of every descrip
tion , lamp posts and other work for the
city and gas company , massive beams
and columns for the board of * trade
building , columns , beams and doorplates -
plates for the Grueing brick building be
ing erected north of the Millard hotel ,
and the Barker Bro.'s hotel on Thir
teenth and Jackson streets ; also a variety
of work for buildings being erected in
different parts of the city by Frcd'Krug ,
A. J. Poppleton , P. Manning , John
Frank , Max Meyer , Geo.'Giaconuni and
others too numerous to mention.
The contract for the iron work
on the largo new McGavook
warehouse has just been signed and work
commenced. Heavy shipments arc being
made to outside points , as , for instance ,
to Ames , Neb. , for largo buildings being
constructed there by the Standard Cattle
company , of Cheyenne , Wyo. . and on the
track ready to go out nre live heavy bat
tering rams , manufactured for Raymond
& Campbell , of this city.
On inquiring from parties who have
lied work done as to its character , the
BEK man was informed that it is superior
to anything shipped from the east , and is
delivered promptly , sometimes even in
advance of the ( late fixed. by the contract ,
and the vexatious delays once so common
have wholly disappeared. The encour
agement given to this new enterprise is
something marvellous , but is doubtlos
duo to some extent to the fact that every
enterprise with which Mr. Paxton is con
nected means business iroui the start.
A Hold Itobbery.
James Mathewson reported at police
headquarters yesterday that c had been
"held up" in broad * daylight , near the
Slaven house , this morning , and robbed
of $0 in money. It seems that two men
approached him for money , to buy some
thing to cat with , and ho responded by
loaning each Of thorn a quarter , lie then
went into an - > outhouse in tlio
the roar of the hotel. He
was followed by four men , two of them
being tlio bejrgars to whom ho had given
the money. These men choked him and
searched his pockets , taking every cent
they could find. They then released him ,
but before ho could give the alarm they
had escaped. One of them , however , a
man by the name of Edward Fitzgerald ,
was arrested by Ollicor O'Grady on the
positive identilication of Mathowson.
Officer O'Grady arrested two fellows
who were suspicioned of having com
mitted tlio robbery , but as the victim
could not bo found the men were dis
charged. Later on the same fellows
\yero arrested by Officer Horrigan for
fighting , and when taken to the station
were identified by the victim as the men
who had robbed him.

Police Court.
The only interesting case in police
court j'cstcrday was the gtrlal of M.
Leon and B. Wcisnmn , an Italian and a
Jew who had been arrested for lighting.
From the story told by both parties it ap
peared thai Wcisman had gene to Leon's
fruit stuud to make a purchase of some
bananas. He asked for a glass of ice
water , which the Italian promptly re
fused , saying that lie needed all he could
got to make lemonade witli. This en
raged Weisinan , and a pitched battle en
sued in which both weru badly used up.
Judge Stenborg lined them 5 and costs
each.
Several unimportant cases of intoxica
