THE OMAHA DAILY BEE ; . SATURDAY. MAY 7 , - 18S7. . . COES UOOKING FOR SARAH , riio Aniious Orowd Which Witnessed Mmo- Bernhardt's Arrival , HOW THE TRAGIC QUEEN LOOKS. How She Appear * In Private , Her Im proved Appearance and Gen eral Disposition Production of "FeUora" l nat Nl ht. Barah Dcrnhardt. The news of the arrival of M'mo. Sarah IJornhardt nt the Bluffs preceded her to this side of the rivor. A delay ensued. A special cngino was hunted tip and the cnr of tlio famous personage wai drawn from the Chicago & North western depot to that of the Union Pa- cilio on this side. Fifteen railroad mon stood around waiting to azo upon the actress. When the train cauio to u stand , the company carao out , almost one mem ber at a time. Instinctively they rushed to the west end of the depot at n rate of speed suggesting a cavernous and dissat isfied stomach or nn all-controlling do- eirc to eaten a train on the moment of leaving. They wcro all ladou with either valises , grips , traveling bags , canes or umbrellas , while Borne of them dragged unmannerly and objecting typos of tlio canine SDccics. The presumption is that they wcro all French , but they looked moro like Eng lishmen. They affected their trans-chan nel friends in dross , and , as n consequence quence , BOIUO of tholr habiliments wore about as devoid of Uuto as could bo imagined. When nearly all of them had loft the depot and Inul inserted themselves in 'busses mill hacks or started on a pedes trian trip to the city , a Knot of ladies and gentlemen stood around the rear plat form of the madamo'fl car. Among the latter wcro several sable porters of the Fullman stripo. The rest wore actors and actresses in front of whom stood Mr. Grau , tlio manager. Every eye was Drained up the steps. There was a move ment of somebody inside the car toward the door. It was evident that Sarah was nbout to disembark. The next instunt , an elderly lady , near the platform extended her right hand. Mr. Grau extended hia loft.'and a being with a dark-red , nlumod turban descended the slops , took both ex tended hands , and stepped to the ground. Sarah Uernhardt was in Omaha ! The railroad inou tznzod. Sarah did also , and thrusting her arm into that of Mr. Grau , started at a brisk pace across the tracks , chattering tlio while like a Vassar girl at recreation. The other mpmbors of her company followed , her niece , a pretty young woman , carrying a fuzzy litllo English terrier weighing nbout ton ounces , which seemed to appreciate no toriety not less than his mistress. A. valet carried n largo black box , from the grating of which glowed the fiery eyes of an immense cat , of a hue as sable as n ruined reputation. Th9 inadarno was encased in a traveling ulster cinctured with a silver girdle in embossed and engraved squares. The girdle descended low in front and drew the garment in at the back so closely to the person as to suggest a pecu liarly constructed frame. The covering had a burnished brightness about it which , at a distance , not irmptly sug gested the stage doth used in such spec taculars as the "Field of the Cloth of Gold. " . Tlio madajuo appeared to bo about twenty-Jive years of nee , twenty years ynnngnr Ihiin oho roalljris. Her face iraa white , suggestive of the pun * box rather than natural color , while her lips were as ripe and rod as of the earliest years of womanhood. The richness of the red , howovor. did nqt warrant the belief that nature had done the painting. Mrao liomhardt travels in the Uorn- bardt's car , which , in February last , bore the name of the angel-songstress , Futtl. It is luxuriously furnished and supplied with all the conveniences which art has been able to incorporate in those mtiner- ant palaces. The celebrated actress slept in the same chamber which shall now , probably , know Patti no more. From the appearance of the couch , it was safe to conclude that the celestial being had not long been awake from the sleep of genius , though the rest of the car betok- encd imperial rules and willing sub- jecU. The loading members of the aggregation repaired to the Millard. Some of them registered without their first names , as for instance : Bernard , ronanges , Soy- lor , and Angclo , while others loss pomn- ously wrote as follows ; Ph. Jnrnier , Ed Fourier. Mme. Sarah Hernhardt , maid end valet ; Mine. Guorard , M'llo Sarah Bcrnhardt. M'llo Sarah J. Malvau , E. Welncl , Mme. Marie Vallott and Maurice Grau. About the only one in the company who understands English is the madame nersnlf. She speaks it with a * great deal of effort , and frequently enlists the as- ffistancc of her matchless face and hands in enabling her tongue to give expression to her thoughts. It happened that the bellboy - boy linguist of the hotel could not be in more places than ono at the same time. The boll-boy who is not u linguist was assigned to the task of escorting to rooms some of the company whose names ho know not and could not loam by inquiry. lie had no Influence over the actors , and just u soon as these saw some open doors they rushed around indiscriminately and took possession of the neareit apart- wonts. This led to a mixing up , the straightening out of which caused a breeze in good old Normau French which will not be heard again In many years. Mine. Bornhardt B apartments are on the second floor and Douglas street side. They are those which were occupied by PatII , and in every way calculated to satisfy the taste of the most capricious genius. Mine , nornhardt has been sokon | of by people in till uarts of the country in a most insulting manner. Not augob thuuiBolyes , they grumble because they do not Hud tuigqlio traits in thono whom genius has thrust into their notice. That many of these reports urn the outgrowth of prejudice and Ignorance is known to all whoso pleasure it has boon to meet tills talented woman when uot under inilu- enoos such as most piiople would bo ub- eolvoil for suoourubing to. Her naturnl disposition is that of gentleness BIUI kindness , made doubly more ougagini : by a vivacity of the most delightful order. Situ converses - verses with the craco , ease and fluency of n scholar , and the brilliancy of her thoughts is equalled only by the rapidity with which she gives them expression. It Is a pleasure t > f the hlghcxt order to converse with Mme. Uurnhardt especially when the fornmlity of the professional visit has melted and tlin nrtUta inscnsi- Vly allows full play to her wonderful intellectual - tolloctual graces and accomplishmo'nts. Muie. Denilmrdt lias gainuu reniarka- bly iu flesh slnco her first visit. She is now thirty-llvo pounds hcavloi thiin she then wa * , Her features nro less nugu- lar , and ( hero is more strength and health noticeable in Imr face. During par tint vlsiit to this country , she tiluycd no uoarnr lo Omaha thun tit. i/oseph , and pome of our citizens went to that city to hear her. They were few. however , and those ol them who will bo able to recognize her , Iwruiso of the change * which huvo taken | > l ci ( ( must retain a very vivid roiuein- bruuce dittoed. The change has been brought about by increased appetite ia an cxoollwnt evidence of good icalth. She takes whipped cream at every meal , and oats with Mr. Grau , her nolco M'll Sarah Dcrnhardt , and Mmo. Uuerrard. The bill ordered last night by iho party , for dinner , would have sat isfied the rapacious appetlto of a famish ing frontier scout. Fedora. Mme. Hornhardt's Initial performance in Omaha was made last night in the play above mentioned. Tlio audience was reasonably large , especially in view of preceding and attendant circum stances. It lacked in warmth , however , save when the well-known climaxes of tiio piece wcro reached , the import of which could not bo mistaken by intelli gent people who had not oven scon the piece produced in English. In the ex- captions mentioned , the appreciation and applause were quite complimentary. This coldness must bo excused on the ground that but very few of the auditors understood the French language _ well enough to appreciate the more delicate phases of the intense plot. Shortly after the rising of the cutain on the first act , Mr. I1 , licrt/.m.inn , an old resident of this city , rose in the front row of the parquet and speaking in French , nddresRodtho madame , referring to the length of time Omaha had waited for her appearance , and bidding her heartily welcome to the city. The ad dress received u kindly and smilingly re cognition from the star. The play then proceeded. An unfortunate interruption was occa sioned in the third act by the playing , on the Fifteenth side of the opera house , of a brass band. The first note unnerved the maritime , yet she continued in a quiet and troubled manner to await the cessa tion of the air. Hut tlio band was longwinded - winded , and tno playing continued until Mme lieruhardt left'the stage in despair , and the curtain was rung down. The bund , however , was stopped , but not until everybody in the house had re gretted the bail taste which the interrup tion had exhibited. Mme. lierndardt again enacted the scone , and her kind ness was so appreciated by the audlenco that she was remembered at the close of the act with a triple recall. THE I'LAY. J'cdorr. has been acted in many coun tries , by many prominent actors , but never has it been giyen under sncu pecu- lias circumstances as last night. . It is a common coiucidcuco to have artists ap plauded or hissed in such a manner that a continuation of their parts would bo diflicult.but seldom do wo greet "viva voco" an artist at her very first appear ance on the stage , nor do wo underline her most interesting and impoitant dia logue by a brass band I Sarah Born- hardt nevertheless made her debut among us , and notwithstanding enthusiastic countrymen or arduous sercnadcrs she brought Fedora to us in all her tender ness , hatred and love. A great change lias como over the great actress , not only from the time she first entered the comedio Francaise as loading actress , but since her last visit to this country. The is no longer the thin , tall , sorpont-liko Sarah of yore who covered herself in lace , shrouded herself in weird tea gowns with their never ceasing trains and profuse' embroideries , but a handsome and stunning looking woman. In her first days of "Rome Vaincuo , " "Camille " "Frou-Frou , " etc. , at the Comedio Frnncaiso , it was often said tnat her acting was a master piece , she was wonderful , but where was she ? Would it not be true to say that prob ably ouo-half of the audience last night loft the opera house wlte a certain fool ing of disappointment , u feeling that she had not quite como up to their expectations , their idcasl They expect acting and co prepared to see Ft and instead of acting they have real life ! The realism that Uernhardt puts into every little detail of her part makes ono immediately forgot the artist , the oolori but the character Itsolf. appears before one in all its naturallincss and vividness to such an extent that it ceases to bo imitation and leaves one spoil- bound and dazed as the curtain drops. Dcrnhardt's conception of "Fedora" is a refined and subdued ono and yet the power that there is hidden beneath her struggles to control her ever rising pas sions and anxieties is wonderful. In Fedora's first scene with Loris and her final poison scene , Bornhardt shows in her artistic way , her great dramatic force which , though ever present but subdued , never attains any climax ex cepting in these two instances. In Fedora's death scone , which is gen erally a painful sight to witness in all its spasms and ranting , Bernhardt shows the great artist in delicately portraying the different stages of the deadly bever age in the most roflnod and yet sensa tional manner , until finally , overpowered by the drug , she falls dead at the feet of her lover. Bernhardt's support is pleas ing in its conscientiousness and earnest ness , but is certainly not a strong ono. It is to bo hoped that Camilla will live and die her sad Ufa without the interrup tions that Fedora experienced 1 ast oveni- ing. 8AJJK OF BOYO'B PACKING HOC.8E J. I ) . Her Purchases It For $75OOO Uord to Retire. 'The rumors which have been circulat ing for several weeks that the suspen sion of business at Boyd's pork packing bouse a short time ago was the result of negotiations by the owner to sell his property have materialized. The sale was made on Thursday night to J. D Her , for $75,000. The proworty 'sold in cludes the whole plant and the real es tate occupied , twelve full lots. As Mr. Her Is in Chicago , the sale hav ing finally been made by telegraph , no definite information is obtainhd as to his plans concerning the establishment. It u stated by gontlement who nro probably in a position to speak advisedly that the establishment will bo considerably en larged and that beef packing will bo inado one of the features. The distillery- fed oattlo would thus become available without transportation. Mayor Boyd , who was interviewed briefly yesterday afternoon , said that he contemplated doing nothing for a time. It was not impossible that ho would build another packing house. Ho owns a well stocked ranch in Wyoming and con templates visiting that during tno coming summer , lie has no serious contempla tion of an European tour with his family at present as has been rumored. Omaha will regret losing Mr. Boyd as an active business man , and it is to bo hoped such will not bo his determination. To him is duo. to a great degree , the growing prominence which Omaha DOS- Besses as a meat packing center , Flo was nlono hero but a few years ago. and when his property was destroyed by lire , ho demonstrated hU characteristic pluck in rebuilding his pork packing and lard rdiuing establishments , They Want a lleoount. Messrs. Boyd and Magcath , the former ono of the unsuccessful candidates for councilman at largo , and the latter in the same boat on the Seventh ward ticket , talk of appllng for n recount of the vote of that ward. If sixtoou moro votes could bo obtained for him , lloyd would bo nloctod. and if twonty-thron more could Ui found In his favor , Magcath would bo among the oity dtuis. Shot Jty nn Unknown Man. Charles Curllx , a young sou of Mrs. Clara Curtis , Sixteenth and Howard streets , was shot in the right foot by unknown muu near the ball grounds yesterday afternoon. After shooting the lad the i man ran away. At last notice the boy was comfortable. IT IS HONEST , GENUINE COAL The South Omaha Diamond Trill Brings Up a Prize. BRUTAL BURGLARIOUS ASSAULT. Mrs. nicliard McGormtck the Victim Serenade For the Mayor Elect Powdcrly's Arrival To-day President Adams Here. Coal In South Oninlia. The workmen employed nt the pros pecting shaft at South Omaha , on with drawing the drill yesterday found that coal had been struck. The vein waf un derlying a strata of black slate closely resembling coal. Allowing for the waste the vein measured from seven to fifteen inches in thickness. Underneath the coal was found a six foot strata of soap stone and beneath that the drill entered solid rook again , similar to that found above the coal. The shaft is being put down by the stock yards company and had reached a depth of 250 feet when coal was found. Work was commenced last fall when a shaft was sunk as far as the rock. A few weeks ago boring was commenced with a diamond drill which takes out a four-inch core. The shaft is being stint in the pump house a few rods from the Exchange building. The discovery of the coal and the pros pect that a thicker vein could bo struck lower down created some little excite ment among the citizens at South Omaha who were anxious lo got the very latest news from the shaft. Mr. Cook , who is now in charge of the work , brought sam ples of the coal to the city for the purpose - pose of ascertaining its qualities. Mr. Alfred Cook , who superintends the drill , was found at the Merchants' hotel jast evening. He exhibited several spec imens of Hgnito. or bituminous coal , of fair quality , and stated that beside the five inches of that which had been found in the vein struck , there wns about four foot pf a half slate , half coal formation beneath it. The drill next struck soapstone - stone again , and then went into lime stone , whore it is now boring. Ono of the largest and most -porfuot cores of limestone over soon was exhibited by Mr. Cook. It is nearly throe feet in length and three and a half Indies iu diameter. It's finished exterior surface shows the remarkable cutting power of the drill. The drill will bo sent through the strata of limestone in which it is now working as fast as possible , with a hope , which is well based upon miners' expe riences , that underneath it will be found a vein of coal which will bo at least two and a half feet in thickness. Such a vein would pay to work , and that the quality will bo better than that of this superficial vein there is no question , The finding of a coal vein of snillciont thickness to mine profitably in South Omaha would bo about as valuable a discovery to the city as if it wore struck on Farnam street. The cost of transportation would be small nnd the opportunities there for es tablishing suitable works and u camp would bo much bettor. A BHUTALi Mrs. Itlchard McCormlok Assaulted By a House Breaker. Mrs. Richard McCorinick was most brutally assaulted by a burglar in her residence , Capitol avenue and Eighteenth street , last evening at nine o'clock while she was attempting to capture him. Mrs. McCormick had been out to a conven- ent store to order the groceries for to day , and hnd closed the front door before she departed. She was surprised upon returning to lind the door unfastened , as it should have been locked by a spring catch. She supposed Mr. McCormick or some of the family had returned to the house during her absence , and went iu without alarm. As she advanced into the hall she perceived a man coming out of her daughter's room and starting down stairs. She asked him what he was doing there , and as ho made no reply she waited boldly until he reached the foot of the stairs and then grabbed him by the coat saying : "you're a thief. " tor a reply the man struck Mrs. MoCor- rmck on the side of the fane with a heavy revolver. The blow caused the lady to fall , nnd the villainous assailant snrang past her and out of the door. Al though stunned , Mrs. McCormick re covered her foot and ran to the door , cry ing : "Stop that man ; he's a burglar ; bo's a thief. Stop him , stop him ! " She states that at this moment there were two men standing near the corner to whom she especially directed her ap peals. Instead of heeding her request the two men started oil' in different ways. Mrs. McCormick thinks that they woro1 confederates of the thief. The police were telephoned to but upon arriving at the house could find nothing to give them the least clue 'as to the identity of the villainous marauder. Ho had secured in one ot the 'rooms up stairs a pocicetbook with $20 in it , which ho bad succeeded iu escaping with. Some other articles , which he had when Mrs. McCormiok saw him , ho dropped. Throe officers wcro detailed at once to search for the man but without suc cess. Ho is described by Mrs. MoCormlckos being young , about five feet , three or four Inches tall , heavily built , and with black mustache. Ho were a black hat , light suit of clothes , and baseball or cloth shoes. The plucky lady was not seriously in jured by the blow she sustained but her cheek bono was quite badly contused. Bin.

A very imprompul tijit decidedly suc cessful surprise \fiwiiglvon Hon. W. J. Broatoh , uiayor-ol t ! ' of Omaha , at his residence. On the spur of the moment a few friends decided'to glvo him a com plimentary serenade , { a.ud although tholr intention was uot spread by uotico , a largo number of prqu ncnt citizens were formed on the liao'nof march that wns headed toward tl(9 ( 'homo of the next executive of the cit'j' ' , beaded by the Union Pacific band. PatO'Hawcs led the con gratulation armv and acted as general master of ceremonies with his usual suc cess. Arriving at Mr. Broatch's resid- deuce the crowd that had then swelled to several hundred assembled on the lawn , and after several selections from the band the irrepressible Pat intro duced David II. Mercer , chairman of the republican city central committee , who said : Mayor-Elect Broach : In behalf of the re publican party , the members of the city cen tral committee and your Irlcuds In this metropolitan city , I congratulate you on your election. We are promt of you. You were the candidate ot the republican party : you organized your forces In the face of Kruat odds and won a maKniticeiit victory. As the mayor of Omaha you are not the representative of any ono party ; vou are an executive olllcer whoso duty it Is to look after the Interests ot this great city Irre spective nt class , creed or nationality. A criticising miblic will watch your every step and the future success of the republican party will depend on your course while In olllco. The electors of this city showed their coutidenco In you at the polls and wo fool that we know thnt thnt confidence has uot been misplaced ; and thnt Uinnha will boast for the next few years of a inaEnllicont city government. Gentlemen , I take pleasure In Introducing to you our mayor , W. J. Broach. Tlio now mayor stopped forward amid rounds of cheers and spoke as follows : .fellow Citizens and Friends : I stated be fore 1 was elected to tlio office ot mayor that If elected I would do my best to nlvo yon a satlsactory administration so far as lay In my power , and this 1 shall endeavor to do. I re alize ono thing , that It will be impossible for mo to do this without the hearty co-operation of all branches of the city ftovernuieut. Ibo- llevo tlmt we have a council both democratic and republican that will heartily co-operate with the mayor and other ofllcors of the city goveturnout to carry out the administration of the laws , such as will bo compelled on next Tuesday to clyomy oath to support , both the laws ol this state and the ordinances which your council may pass. 1 fonl tbat 1 am Indebted mainly to tbo re publican party , but also to many democrats who voted for me ; I know that they stepped out sldo of the lines to give me the tmpport , believing , perhaps that 1 was bettor lilted for the office than ray opponent. 1 also feel that 1 am indebted. 1 leol that I am very much Indebted to a certain class of people through out this city , and thnt Is the laborers and me chanics of the city of Omaha. The votes will bo canvassed on next Monday and that will demonstrate to a cortalnty , but I know I re ceived a largo labor vote. It Is In the Inter ests of of the people that capital and labor should go hand In hand ; the ono furnishes the supplies and the other the labor ; where both work harmoniously-together wo are sure to have prosperous tiniest Your call upon mo this ovenlmrwas some what unexpected. UplMi'going ' to my olllro about 0 o'clock I found a note upon my desk from your chairman notlryliiK me that I would be called upon this evening , HO this must bo my excuse for not liavluc made fur ther preparation. 1 ttiAko no pretense at speeclimaklnp , but Inflight have provided something In the way of refreshments If I had had moro time , lahankyou for the con fidence that you have imposed upon mo by electing rue the chief executive of the city of Omaha and 1 promise you 1 will do mv best to clvo you a eood administration. What 1 desire above all things Is that the administra tion shall be clean. Itrls my intention to make appointments such as the council will heartily concur in and which will be for tue best Interests of the cltyr - Then followed round .after round of applause and the mayor-elect was forced by the crowd to go through a regular old fashioned "all hands around shaking , " everyone wishing to give him a hand- greeting. Loud calls wcro then made for Mr. Bechol , whom Mr. Hawes Intro- introduced as the present and the next chairman of the common council. Mr. Bechol said : 1 am so hoarse to-niplit that it is almost Impossible for mo to articulate but I will say that we liavo a mayor and city council who will be In hearty accord and 1 trust that they will Rive you an administration which you will not regret. The responsibility ot the city government will rest for the next two years and a half upon the republican party and speaking for one 1 think we are per fectly willing to assume tbat responsibility. Thanking you gentlemen. The next speaker iu order was accord ing to the introducer the "Seventh ward hustler Michael Leo. " Ho said : Friends and follow citizens : I came here this evening as all of you came to pay a trlbuto to Captain Broach the mayor-elect of Omaha. He has surprised even those who were formerly opposed to film , lie has shown tlmt he is a leader worthy of the re publican party before the nomination and aftcrwasds by the magnificent manner in which he conducted the campaign that has brought us on to victory and given us twelve members of the city council the mayor and nearly all the officers. I am Bfttisiied that all the citizens will be so well suited with his administration that when his term shall have expired ha will oe ronouil- nated by acclamation. 1 am satisfied tlmt the city council will be la herrly accord with the mayor , and that all appointments will bo continued , and that the people of Omaha will see for the next two years a mayor and council pulling together for the common good , interests of the city nnd the republican party. ( Applause. ) I are satisfied that when another battle comes there will be no clasli- ine In the republican party , that every man will work shoulder to shoulder and go into the fteht and inane as good a iizht In the county as they have made in the city , i tbank you , gentlemen. ( Oteat applause. ) Police Judge-elect Louis Berka , in re sponse to repeated calls , said : Fellow-citizens : We come here to-nleht to show our respect to the chief magistrate of this city of Omaha. We all heartily con gratulate him upon his election. 1 will say for ono I will do all within my power to make the relations of the different city otllcos harmonious nnd endeavor to give the city a clean administration , and so far as In me lies I will endeavor to aid tn carrying out the laws ot the city though the heavens fall. ( Applause. ) 1 believe in so doing I will re ceive the support of the people of Omaha. I am sure that the mayor will endeavor to ap point the most capable asshtants which will very materially aid in too administration of the affairs. \ , " Chris Specht was next .called . for and spoke as follows : V- Gentlemen , Fellow Cltlzoni and Republi cans Especially : When we came up hero to-night 1 told two of my Jrimids that lost fall the democrats had tliolr , music and this spring we have ours and 1 nope wo will keep on every campaign havitu/our ; ! / own music and let them wait along.time for tholr music. Hon. Pat O. Hawos closed the talk as follows : „ " , Follow Citizens : We are ! assembled hero to-night to congratulate each other ns well a ? the successful candidate nviio Is elected to the chief executive of this city. We have elected a man who has nuder tils hair the organ of order well developed , lie has or ganized his campaign aealdst great odds Iu his own party as well as outside , and he was successful , lie has compelled ninny who were opposed to him to work In Record with him , and what can we expect ? We can ex pect a fftlr and impartial progressive admin istration. ( Applause ) . The procession then reformed and re turning towards the center of the city , serenaded tbo World , Republican and UKK olliceg. When the procession came within this bailiwick. Pat O. Howes step ped forward and said : "Boys play your best tunes hero for you are serenading a paper whoso editor has done moro to wards the election of Mr. Broatch than any power In the city. " This ended ono of the most successful testimonials of congratulations ever given to a pubiio official in Omaha , there being only ono thing about it to criticize , and that is the lack of notice given. Had it been generally known that there would bo an event of the kind there would certainly hare been an army on 'the ' field. IMPORTANT FOU\VI10JjKSAMniS. _ The Railroad * 1VII1 Probably Give An Hour Moro Time Dally. A petition to the railroads terminal In Omaha , requesting that the time for the rceolpt of freight be changed from 4 p. in. 10 0 p. m. , except on Saturday , when 3 P. m. was named , has bceu circulated among the jobbers of this city this week through the courtesy of lG. . Dun & Co. , and , receiving the signatures of firms rep resenting seven-eighths of the jobbing capital of the city , was yesterday pres ented to the railroad managers by Dun & Co.'s representative and very courteously received. Mr. Johnson , assistant general freight agent of the Union Pacific railroad , was very prompt to express a desire to acccdo to the wishes of our merchants in this respect , should certain minor objections be overcome , which ho thought very probable. Mr. Holdrcgo , general man ager of the B. & M. , was inclined to favor the object in view if possible , und so was Mr. liriggs of the St. Paul. The only objection urged was that iu case of a rush of freight in excess of the ability of tholr mon to handle the road might be compelled to hold a portion till the next day. But all promised to consider the matter in the most favorable light , and moot the views of shippers if possible. The attainment of this point will bo a great gam to our merchants , who nro now cotilincd to thn time between the re ceipt of tholr mail , between 13 and 1 p. m. , and the closing of the freight gates nt 4 p. m. in which to select , hill and ship their day's orders , and by giving them till 0 or oven 5 p. in..which latter is thought to bo the limit of time which the roads can grant , an additional day per week , virtually , will bo added to their working time , and they confidently look to the courtesy aud sense of justice m the managers hero to grant their wishes. PRESIDENT ADAMS IN OMAHA. lie Is Accompanied lly Mr. Ames on a Tour or Inspection. Charles Francis Adams , president of the Union Pacific railroad ; Frederick L. Ames , the well-known director of the company , and Edward Canliold , Mr. Adams' private secretary , arrived in Omaha last evening at 7:30 : o'clock direct from Now York. They occupied Mr. Adams' special car , which had boon attached to the Chicago , Burlington & Quincy train out of Chicago. Both Mr. Adams and Ames were attired m comfortable traveling suits as they alighted from the car. Mr. Adams is looking remarkably well. The magnates wore driven to the Millard - lard hotel whore they will stop during their stay in Omaha. They will remain until to-morrow morning. After dinner Mr. Adams and Mr. Ames were joined by Assistant General Manager Cum- miners and Acting General Superin tendent Dickinson and the four gentle men repaired to the private otlicc of the hotel where they re mained in conference until nearly 11 o'clock. After this lengthy meeting Mr. Adams was approached with in quiries as to the manner in which the road has secured the services of Mr. Potter as general manager , what promo tions wore probable incident to the resignation of General Superintendent Smith , and whether a now depot is to bo built in Omaha. Ho excused himself from talking on the probably well author ized plea of weariness. Mr. Dickinson , who was seen , stated that none of these questions were touched upon during the conference.

Her fathor- In-law did not turn her Into the street with force , but he did toll her that she must leave his house and that ho would not provide for her.

The Transcontinental lionets Encoun ter a New Difficulty. CiucAoo , May 0. At to-day's meeting of the transcontinental railway representatives the fact was made clear that notwithstanding the willingness of the Canadian Pacific to enter the combination of overland ro.ids , the prospect of such a combination being formed Is not particularly promising. The granting of a differential to the Canadian Pacific to Induce It to join is raising unexpactod ob stacles. The Denver & itio Grande , In con nection with the 13. & M. , Insists that , being a narrow gauge and having to change freight on through busi ness , that It is also entitled to differentials. The Northern Pacific wants a slice ot Cali fornia business , and being a water route from Portland to San Francisco it , too , wants to make lower rate ? than the direct lines. The Atchlson , Topcka & Santa Ke , on the other hand , objects to giving differ entials to anylluo and wlllnot subscribe to any such programme. Although n plan of organ ization was submitted by tlio committee , the difference of opinions on the question ot rates delayed any progress toward its adop tion. The general opinion to-nlcht among the delegates to the meeting was that the present rates on certain articles will be modi fied and made so low that If the Canadian Pacific gets any of the business U will be forced to haul it at a loss.
