KANUALLi AND COAST DEPKNBES.
Much Interest Taken tn the Outcome
of the Matter.
WASHINGTON , Feb. 11. fSpecInl Telegram
to the DKE.I Much interest just now cen
ters about Chairman Samuel J. Randall of
the house committee on appropriations. To
bis com in It too have been committed the var
ious measures for coast defenses and It lies
within his power to have almost any of them
smothered or passed. Ilo can have any of
them reported at nny time , taken up or
passed , or can prevent action in com in It too.
There nro conflicting statements as to what
he intends doing , lie refuses to talk upon
| J' v. the subject himself. The republican mem
bers of the committee say that ho does not in
tend to permit any action at all and that his
excuse Is that this is but a republican trick
to get the surplus out ot the treasury. All of
the republicans on the appropriations com
mittee , and nearly all In the house , are for a
Ilberaleoast defense appropriation. Ono thine
la learned from Mr. Randall , however , and
that Is that ho believes the maximum appro
priation for coast defenses , It ouo Is made ,
should be 810.000,000 ; that he thinks it
should be placed In the hands ot a board B < V
i > , . lected by the secretory ot war , but to be com-
Jf nposed or no ono frora the ordnance departments -
- ' ments , because nearly all of the ordnance
. , v men are Interested In patents on guns , rams ,
| * V < shells , mortars , ctr. An Impression cre-
1 --f ; : valla among men of both parties that It Randall -
; ? ; - dall can so complicate the question as to de
feat the final passage of the bill without
showinghls hostility to It be will do so.
TUB rmCSIDENX'8 VETO.
The president's message to the house In
returning to that body the dependent pension
bill was received late this afternoon. Its

bill was passed by the house January 17
under suspension of the rules , the vote
standing ayes , IbO ; nays , 70. It wns passed
by the senate January 23 without a division.
The Inreo nfllrmntlvo vote obtained for the
bill In the house encourages Its friends to
Jiopo that they can nunln pass it notwith-
r-hv-r standlnp the president's objections. The
- chances for its passage in the senate overt ho

'Ihefitoryof the Crime as Feirciod
Out by tha Piakertuns.
CHICAGO , Feb. 11. [ Special Telegram to
the BEK.J The Indications are that the
rest Rock Island express robber } * and inur-
4w mystery is boluc cleared up. Rumors
are current here this morning that two and
possibly three parties will be arrested here
eon for the crime , if not now in cubtody ,
' Two of these are said to be the men who
Actually committed the double crime , the
worder being resorted to In order to avoid
recondition. Henry Schwartz' connection
with the affair was that of an accessory. The
lory as partially nne.ilecl IB to tlio etfcct that
ScuwarU and three other railroad men con
ceived the Idcu of robbing the express car ,
their knowledge of the run irtul the incssen-
net's habits making It comparatively safe for
them. Murder was not contemplated , but as
Mid rwforeW 8 reborlcd to to save themselves ,
Two men , it is sold , lode to Jollet In the
NOM-amlgutoft there. When the train
ted they warded it again between the ex-
Riid baggage car. Schwartz was
Knl brukrmaii , nnd it was ills
ty la prevent this very thin * , and
would doubtless huvn nttonded to it liad
parties been other than tnuy were. Alter
tr i started tlio men had ample time to
out tUelr plans as the nuxt stopping
wan twenty miles further on. What
Murreu in the car in the way of a dcspemta

KBOWH to need rupeUtlon. It lit asserted the

4Viloa of the spoils took place , Bchwaru. It
IMUInv lvntcbetween ! iS.UOO and § 3.000.
U rtory Is saKI to have beoa told by Mrs.
yrru , alias Way N w , on the occasion of
ri ! t to Jjotru a few days axe and
wormed out other by I'fnkcrlon. At any
rale since returning , to the city she hns disap
peared nnd when Plnkerton wai asked last
nl htwhat hud become other , ho said : "I cm
tfll yon positively that you could not find
Mrs. Schwartz If yon were to try nil nlirht
nnd furthermore that If you did find her she
wmild not tell jotin word. " It is also asserted
that the story told by .Mrs. Schwartz wr.s cor
roborated by William J , Gnllaehcr , the noted
line worker who was for some time Schwarlz'
cell male In Cook county jail. H th men are
from Philadelphia and are old acquaintances.
It Is snlrt this story constitutes the largest
part of the valuable service rendered the
state by Oallrttfhcr , M mentioned by States
Attorney ( Iriuncll when thu prisoner mallo n
plea Wednesday nnd received his light sen
tence of ono jrar for forcing city warrants.
ANOTIIF.il AUIIKST MADE.
Newton Watts , the bagcagn maslor of the
robbed train , is under arrest for alleged com
plicity In thu crime. Ho has been mlsslni :
slnco Tuesday night , but not until this after
noon was It definitely known that ho had
boon taken Into custody. Wednesday ho
was conveyed to Morris by a detective. In
company with the Jollet chief of police the
two paid the brafceman , Henry Schwartz , a
visit at the lull. They remained In the
cell with Schwartz three hours , during
which there was much stormy talk.
\Vntts was extremely vigorous In
his denial of certain statements Raid to
have been made by Mrs. Mayhow ,
Schwartz's mlstrt-ss , nnd corroborated by
Schwartz. The baggaircmastcr paced the
floor excitedly , nnd clnlnml the whole pro
ceeding was an attempt to ruin nltn.
Schwartz , the Mayhow woman , and the do-
tectlvo were repeatedly branded by him as
falsifiers. The whole matter ended by Wntts
being returned to Chicago , whom ho Is now
closely conllncd. Them is no longer any
secret made that Mrs. Maybow is also under
arrest *
SHU MAN TAlTliB SHEKMAN.
A. Chicago Editor Pushes the Ohio
Senator Forward.
CHICAGO , Feb. U. [ Special lelcgram to
theBEit.l Andrew Shuman , editor of the
Chicago Journal , and who lias always been in
the inner councils of the republican party ,
writes a signltlcant letter to his paper from
Washington , In which ho expresses the be
lief that John Sherman and Joseph Hawley
will bo the republican candidates for presi
dent and vlco president In 1SS3. Mr. Shuman
says : "Thorp Is much speculation hero con
cerning the next presidency among men ot
both political parties , and the fact is recog
nized by all that the candidate who Is most
likely to carry Now York will bo the most
likely to receive the nomination. While the
republicans can not as yet agree upon any
Now Yorker to head the presidential ticket ,
the recent defeat ot Warner Miller by Mr.
Hlscock , assisted by Levl P. Morton's
friends , for United States senator Imvlnir
added new elements of division and confu
sion to the situation In that state , vet it Is
claimed by some vnry clear bended men ,
botti in and out of Now York , that
John Sherman would bo more likely
to carry the state than any
other man who is not himself n favorite son
of thd state Itself. Tuoy say that the finan
cial and mercantile classes , men of commerce
and finance , and those outraged in the In
dustrial pursuits , would he virtually a unit
for him , without respect to political party
considerations. If this claim is correct. John
Sherman will loom up as n candidate in the
republican national convention next year
and ought to. Pennsylvania would support
him for election if not for the nomination ,
and the west could be or ought to be safely
counted for htm. I say this not as a special
admirer of Sherman , but as one who is ex
ceedingly desirous of republican success.
Ono thing the republicans as well as all
others might as well at once make up their
minds to , namely : that Grover Cleveland
will be the nominee of the democratic parly
next year for re-elertlon. That may bo Betas
a foregone conclusion , and we mlzht as well
face the fact ; and , furthermore , It is need
less to add we might as well at once face the
probability that he will bo a formidable can
didate if nominated. I recognize the fact
hero as elsewhere that he Is continually
growing ID popularity iu his party. "
END OF THE STRIKE.
The Knlehts Offlotally Declare tbo
Great Struggle Over.
NEW YOBK , Feb. 11. It is now nn open

DETROIT , Feb. 11. The Evening Journal's
special frora'Lyons sa > s : The flood hero is
simply terrible. A panic has seized most of
the people , and It is impossible to get an es
timate of the losses. The wnterls lour feet
deep in many residences , and the Ramo state
ot affairs prevails In stores. Everybody
is moving or preparing to move. Last
nicht was the most exciting the village ever
had. Up to last night thrco buildings had
been washed away and demolished aud mauy
others badly damaged. A family named
McFarlnud are sick and nre cut off from as-
slstaiica The Herald ofllcu has been boated
to higher quarters. At Lulr tlio same serious
condition prevails and merchants , have aban
doned their stores.
A 811'ht abatement of the flood was hotlccd
last night , but it burst fottli again in all its
fury tills morning. The rain fell in torrents

risen two feet In the last four hours and Is
still rllslng. The people are woiklng night
and day to save tholr property. Maple and
Grand rivers both unite hero and both mo
raging. At 11:30 it is imposslblo to .give un
estimate of the damage done. Should _ the
Lansing lee reach hero before the corce gives
way all business places on the north side of
Main street will bu washed away. A rough
estimate of the damages makes it aggregate
between $75,000 and S 100,000.

ClrcuuiBtnnccB Point to the Tcmpto
nt liocnii as Il | ( lllilliic Place.
Un board tlio eitstibound. Union Pacific
train from Ogdcnycsterdny morninc wasja
business man nnmoa C. S. Wilcox , connected -
noctod with ono of the largest jobbing
houses of Chicago. , lie had. been out to
Utah and had IraVclod that territory
from the middle to ill its boundaries. Ho
had a great deal to"say concerning the
relative attitude of tlio Gontllos and Mor
mons , some ol which , were decidedly novel
arid interesting Not the least novel
was the theory advanced as to the where
abouts of John'Q. Cannon , the Mormon
leader. This man , asj is well known , is
an able and fearless t expounder of aud
beliovcr in the doctrines and practices of
Mormonism. Ho is. in reality the loader
of the Mormon chudbccauso the nco
and infirmity of Taylor , the "president , in
capacitate him for -Ino arduous nature
of the work of leudership'of the church
under existing circumstances. It will bo
remembered tnat early m the summer of
last year , when the prosecution of polyg-
nmists was being carried ou by the fed
eral authorities , an indictment for po
lygamy was found against Cannon. Be
fore ho could bo arraigned he ilcd the
country , and was subsequently arrested
in Nevada by the United States marshal.
When on his way to Salt Lake , and be
tween Corinno aud Ugden , bo jumped
from the car aud attempted to make his
escape. Ho was pursued and retaken ,
and tried to make it appear when cap
tured that ho bad fallen from the cars.
At Ogden ho was mot by a force of United
States troops , who were detailed
to do escort duty , lest the Mormon populace -
ulaco should attempt violence upon the
federal officers. Cannon was brought to
Salt Lake , and pending trial gave bonds
for $40,000 for his appearance at the
ensuing term of the United States court.
Cannon remained around for some time ,
but when ho was summoned to court
could not bo found. His bond was for
feited. About the same time President
Taylor disappeared ; and since then the
whereabouts of neither the latter nor
Cannon have been discovered. Detec
tives have boon engaged upon the case ,
but without being able to dispel the mys
tery which seems well'nigh impenetrable.
There are n number of theories of late ,
however , concermncr this disaupoarnnco ,
and that which Mr. Wilcox says obtains
among many Gentiles in Salt Lake City ,
is that Cannon is concealed in the
basement of the magnificent granite tem
ple in Logan , Utah. There are good rea
sons for this belief. This place is con
stantly watched , and of late the rules
with regard to visitors are moro rigid
than before. Even the faithful are not
allowed to enter the lower floor , tbo pur
poses for which it was originally intended
being subserved m the other stones. It
s al so known that certain of the apart
ments originally Intended for religious
purposes have boon furnished and deco
rated with all the richness nnd beauty
which unlimited means can command.
It is also thought becatiso of certain arti
ficial terraces which Imvo lately
boon made upon the grounds
of the temple with earth ,
which it was known had not been drawn
from any of the pits , that a tunnel is
secretly boon dug toa.ravine which runs
behind the torn plo ntdE } , eventually leads
into ono of the cnnyqns of the adjacent
ranges. The length off ho tunnel would
not bo great and micli easily have long
since been excavated , by moans of a few
trusty followers. Byiuoansof ( this exit
a ready road to esoapq could bo had in
the event of an attempt at arrest. Mr.
Wilcox says ho knows the temple is now
attracting the attention of the United
States otiicials in UtitUl Perhaps before

TWEljVK STUBBORN ROUNDS.
Local Ijlght AVolRlitRSottto n Difficulty
In the Prize HI tiff.
At 9 o'clock last ninht over a hundred
local patrons of tlio manly art wore
crowded around an orthodox rlns in a
small room on ono of the principal
streets. The attraction was a twelve-
round glove contest between Sam Ste
venson and Jimmy Llndsoy , two well
known local light weights. The occasion
of the meet grow out of an'nflalr over a
girl. Stevenson , It appears , took his best
girl to a dance , and , after a lovers' quar
rel , went homo , leaving the girl nlono.
Lindsuy came to the rescue and escorted
the girl homo. This caused a quarrel ,
which the two adepts ngrccd to settle In
" oout" with . .
a "friendly four-oui.cogloves.
The moot was accordingly arranged. At
0:30 : o'clock the men appeared in the
ring. Stevenson was seconded by Jack
Hanloy , while Paddy Norton supported
Lindsoy. Both men were stripped to the
waist. Stevenson wore white trunks
without hose. Lindsoy wore dark blue
trunks with black hose. At the first glance
Liudsey appeared to have the best of the
match in the point of physique. Ho , at
13o pounds , outscales Stevenson by G
pounds , nud is heavier chested. Ho hns
had little or no training , however , and
was soft and easily winded. Stevenson ,
who is au old hand atthp business , innoo
up for Ins lack of weight in hardened
muscle.
Aflor the usual clolav , Charles Moth ,
the wrestler , was chosen referee , and J.
lloach nnd Johnny Lamountain timo-
keepers. Although the attendance was
largo , tlio best of order was maintained
and no disturbance whatever was created
by the match , wnioh is given by rounds
as follows :
First Round At the call of time both
men were ou their feet and sparring for
an opening. Lindsoy appeared slightly
rattled and frequently in this round , as
in those following , turned his eyes from
his antagonist to the nudionco in a half
frightened manner. After a good deal
of cautious work btovonson opened with
a body blow and got a clean clip on the
jaw in return. The men then got together
and did some give and take blows ,
Stevenson forcing the fighting and clos
ing the round in his favor.
Second Round Stevenson bobbed up
with a cold-blooded look in his eye to
meet Lindsoy , who was Hushed and ox-
cited. Lindsoy forced the lighting in this
round by rushing at his antagonist with
head ducked. Each rush ended in a
clinch , in which Lindsoy , by reason of
superior weight , had the advantage.
Stcvencon mot Lindsey's third rush by
giving him a terrific left-hander iu the
jaw. The blow staggered Lindsey , but
Stevenson was too badly winded to fol
low his advantage and tbo round ended
in a clinch , in which Stovons9n's fore
head was skinned , showing the first blood
of tiie match.
Third Round Both men come up puff
ing , Stevenson liaviug the advantage of
loing cool-headed. After a walic around ,
in which both men left their guards
drawn , they rushed together and were
separated , as time was called.
Fourth Round The lighters worked for
wind in this round , exchanged a few
pleasing epithets , and closed the round
with a hugging matinee.
Fifth Round Both men had recovered
their wind and came up smiling. Lindsoy
opened with a rush and delivered a ring
ing loft-jiander on Stevenson's nock and
dodged the return. lie followed up his
Jcau and had the best of the round for a
second. Ho , however , made a rush at
Stevenson and , ducking , caught him by
the legs. Before the referee could reach
the mou Stevenson gave Lindsoy an
upper cut in the jaw that loosened his
hold and started the claret. The round
ended with hard hitting.
Sixth Round Lindsey again forced the
fighting and in a rush caught Stevenson
by the legs. At the referee's command
to break , Lindsoy sprang up and gave
Stevenson two blows , ono m the face and
one on the neck. Ho attempted to press
his advantage , but wns stopped by a full
straight arm in the face that staggered
him and covered the floor witli goro. The
round closed with some heavy hitting
and left both men covered with blood
and exhausted.
Seventh Round Lindsoy recovered in
the best shape and opened the round with
a neck blow and dodged Stevenson's
return. He repeated the dose and started
to follow his lead , but was staggered by
ono of Stevenson's left handed jaw
breakers.
Eighth Round Both men looked
groggy and came up reluctantly. Ste
venson got IUA wind first and forced the
JighUng , which was as lively as two ex
hausted men could make it. Stevenson
finally made a rush nnd by some nifty
work succeeded in getting a knock-down
in his favor , feljing Lintlsey with a loft
handor. Lindsoy recovered quickly aud
was saved further punishment by the call
of time.
Ninth Round The men almost crawled
into positiou for this bout and were able
to but little moro than push each other
around the eing. Lindsoy got in a blow
that sent Stevenson to his Knees. He re
covered as time was called.
Tenth Round Stevenson opened this
round with a rush and did most of the
lighting , driving Lindsoy all around tbo
ring and knocking him against the ropes
several times. Had ho commenced his
work earlier in the round ho would have
won the light , as he hud Lindsey knocked
out , to all intents , when the round ended.
The lighting ended with this round.
Both men came up exhausted for the
eleventh round. Lindsoy made a rush
which was dodged , and the round closed
without a blow. The men refused to
como together during the twelfth round
and the match was declared a draw.
DAN'B DISCIPLES.
The liast Debate of the Webster So
ciety of Crolchton College.
In the last election of officers the Dan
iel Webster society chose J. McCurvillu ,
vice president- , Furay , secretary ; ( i.
W. Mercer , treasurer ; P. Burke and E.
Noon , censors ; James O'Gorman , K ,
Furay , H , Cotter , H. Town , committee
on debates ; Mr. J. O'Gorman , sergeant-
at-arms , The president is nut elected.
Another debate on a historical question
passed off with conshlortiblo spirit in the
meeting of the juvenile orators of
Croighton college. Harry Cotter gushed
Urn'Vaterlos ' * email fight compared
in numbers ulain with the battle of Tam-
erluno , the Great Mogul ( A. D. U03) ) , iu
which 340.COO Turks nud Tartars bit the
dust. Mr. Cotter has n powerful
voice nud piercing tones adopted
for harangue : ho spoke witli
the Inflections of a born orator. Hnrry
Town ridiculed the idea that 010,000 Rory
corpses tuako the greatness of a battle ;
and ho thrust a brawny lunul on tlm table
with a fixed gaze , ns if clutching that host
of corpses determined to shako nil the
argument out of thorn. The object of the
battle , ho said , makes a baltlo great ; and
at Waterloo , a nation was overthrown ,
nnd the destiny of all civilised nations was
trembling in the balance. M. Town is
remarkably cool and full of good humor ,
his ridicule is seasoned with a bland
gracious smile , and ho makes the most
of an argument. Robert Shannon de
clared that greater destinies were at
stake in tlio battlu of Hastings ( A. D. 1COO )
and nt Tours ( A. D. 783) ) when Charles
Mattel saved Europe from the Saracen in
vasion and thu yoke of Mahometan bar
barism.
Ho described his favorite battles in elegant -
gant and telling sentences ; tils clear , sil
very tones attract attention to his argu
ment , but nrod moro combntlvoncss nnd
vivacity for success at the bar , unless ho
shapes his course to bucomo a very
learned judge. Benjamin Hello grappled
the question in its pith from the be
ginning. Mover were the generals nnd
the armies so well matched in skill and
faino and experience nnd bravery , as well
as in numbers and determination to
crush ono another ; this wns Waterloo
victory poised in mid-air for nine hours
over the toughest battle , while eye nnd
nerve of every soldier bore ono continued
strain , charging and resisting , inarching
and falling back , breaking nnd forming
line ; till , iu ono favorable moment ,
Wellington caught the eye of the winged
goddess , and with a breath of command
hurled back the imperial guard in over
whelming confusion between the English
cavalry and Prussian guns. And the
invincible guards were conquered : nnd
the conqueror of Europe was a fuEltivo ;
and the horrors of French revolution ,
that like a swollen river threatened to
rage over the civilized world fell back
and shrunk cowering within their native
barriers.
The debaters nro learning to kcop their
best strokes in reserve for the second at
tack. This is favorable to extempore
speaking , when all parties nro excited to
warmth by the first speeches and irritated
a little by retort. It was noticeable that
the members are not quite up in parlia
mentary practice.
An embarrassment was caused over a
committee report that was moved to bo
rceomniHtcd. In voting , the motion to
recommit was lost , and yet the adoption
of the report wns also lost , and so the
matter stood. It seems that some of the
members present failed to vote. The
chairman remarked on this fact nt the
close of the debate and reminded the
members of the rule for voting. A few
other trilling circumstances were out of
order , but. as trifles that may happen
in any society , they are noticed only
in a friendly spirit , to encourage
the young men to learn the parliament
ary rules , that ore so serviceable in all
meetings for deliberation , that a knowl
edge of them is enough to bnng a man
to the front.

HKU EX-HUSBAND.
ATI-listing Woman Deceived By Her
Former lilcco L.ord.
Another tale of domestic woo was
poured into Judge Stonberg's ear yester
day afternoon. This time the complain
ant was Mrs. R. C. Bloom , a good look
ing woman under middle age , who came
hero from Chicago a few days ago to visit
her whilom husband. Her story is to the
effect that about a year ago she was di
vorced from her husband in Chicago , the
court decreeing that Bloom should give
a part of his earnings each month to the
support of his child , of which tlio woman
was to retain the possession. In August
last Bloom came to Omaha and entered
into the employ of a well known retail
dry goods store. Since that time the re
mittances for the benefit of his baby have
been irregular and Mrs. Bloom has been
put to some trouble to secure the allow
ance ordered by the court. She says that
last week Bloom , in answer to her re
peated requests for money , wrote to her
that if she would como to Omaha
ho would fix the financial
matter all right. Supposing that
she would bo better can d for in Omnhn ,
she came to this city at once. She ar
rived lipro on Saturday and went with
her husband to the i'nxton house , where
they remained until yesterday morning ,
when the pair came loan understanding.
Her divorced husband , so she said , picked
up his grip yesterday morning after
breakfast and , in a manner that left no
doubt ot his earnestness , told her that
she would have to hustle for horself.as ho
was going to leave the city. She .it once
common&ed an investigation , which
proved that he had kept lim word. Sev
eral lots which ho had acquired since he
came to Omaha had been disposed of nta
sacrifice. Bloom had also resigned his
position with his firm and had dibap-
pcnred. The woman will return to her
homo in Chicago to-day.
