NO ITALIANS NEED APPLY ,
The Usher & Russell Foundry Men Go On
a Strike.
THE CABLE MEN STILL OUT.

I" tlio City ,
Foundry Men Go Out.
dxty men employed tit the Usher &
/Itisscll foundry nnd Iron works struck
yesterday morning Two men , both help
ers In the foundry , one an Irish-American
nnd tliu other : ui Italiiui , lnululitrlit : ibout
the time work conuncncud yostorduy
morning. When Mr. Ushnr arrived at
the foundry and heard of it lie ordered
the discharge of botli combatants. Tlio
foreman carried out his orders. A short
time afterwards a committee from the
rest of the men In tlio foundry waited on
Mr. Hnssell and asked the reinstatement
of the Irish-American helper. They nl o
asked that no more Italians be employed.
Uotn requests wore refused. Tlio men in
the foundry , .sixty in number , thereupon
left their work.
Mr. Usher stated last croning that
the strike would not materially
cll'ect the foundry. The men in
the blacksmith shop and in the
yards are stjll at work. The work of the
foundry which at present is to east the
yokes for tlio cable line is ahead , of the
necessities of the latter ; and work beintr
stopped on the rablo line it becomes still
less necessary to hurry tlio casting of the
yokes. Mr. Usher also said that lie
desired to make repairs in the foundry
and would take advantage of this event
to do so. He stated that the men were
not dissatislicd with their pay , as he wan
paying union prices , $2.7. per day forte
to moulders and $1.70 to helpers. He
said that ho would not consent , under
any circumstances , to allow his employes
to dictate to him and his partner as to
what men ho should employ , whether
Italians or Germans or Irishmen.
Labor Troubles.
The cable strikers have not yet gone
to work- , inasmuch as the contractors still
refuse to pay them iJ2 a day. Yesterday
morning a number of laborers attempted
to go to work , but were prevented from
doing so by .the strikers. There waa no
violence used , the strikers using argu
ments to induce tlio now workmen to
throw down their picks and shovels. It
now looks as though the strike would re
sult in a serious delay to the construction
of the line , unless something is done at
once to adjust the dilliculty.
A reporter for the HKC met Mr. Lillis ,
the cable line contractor yesterday , and
asked him what he had to say with res-
7)oct to the statements of his workmen
published in yesterday's UKK. Ho said
that they showed inconsistency on their
very face. It was not true
that ho refused to pay men
for fractional hours' work. _ In proof of
this , ho showed his time-book wherein
was marked the half hours and less time
than that , even which men had put in
and been paid for. Neither was it true
that ho had telegraphed to Kansas Uity
for laborers. He was paying men just as
much as he could aflbrd to. The
shovellers were getting $1.75 per day
while the concrete and iron men were
being paid $2.00 per day. He asserted
that no shovellers in the city were paid
more than $1.75 , and ho didn't see why
he should be compelled to what ho
could not afford to pay. especially
when others were not paying as much
as ho was paying. There
was no alternative for iijm but to discon
tinue work and fencn in the trenches ,
because ho had men who were willing to
work for the wages he was oaying and
yet , in the presence of the policemen who
wore sent there to protect those men who
wantud to work , these same men had
their tools taken out of their hands
by the strikers and compelled
to leave their work. Ho had expected
different protection than that from the
city. This unreasonable strike , ho said ,
meant a great loss to Omaha , because
the cable company had a million of dollars
lars to put into Omaha this year which
must now remain idle.
The strikers metj'esstrday morning and
niesolution was unanimously adopted
that no work would be resumed on the
line until the contractors agreed to pay
$ -.00 per day for ton hours or at the
rate of 20 cents per hour
for any number of hours
that might bo required , and further that
all the old employes are to bo given the
first chance for re-employment. A com
mittee was also appointed to look after
any men who might bo impor
ted to this place from
Kansas city. It was also
decided to request all laborers to keoj :
uway from the trenches during the pon-
donoy of the strike , to avoid all possible
trouble , because it is the desire of tlio
strikers to secure their point by peaceable
means. A vole of thanks was passed to
the press and the people of Omaha for
their sympathy.
Mr. Lillis , the contractor on the cable
line , paid the disaffected workmen oil *
last evening and stated that ho could not
necedo to the demand for $2 per day.
He said ho had taken the contract under
the understanding that ho would have to
pay only $1.50 or $ l.(5o ( at most for labor
ers. Ho had agreed to pay and Had paid
$1.75. Higher than that ho could not go
without absolute Joss on the contract.
Painters and I'tiporlianRcrs.
The painters and paperhangcrs met at
0 o'clock yesterday morning at Methall. .
\Yhcn the master workman called the
rJf- meeting to order considerable discussion
took place as to the mode of procedure
in applications for painters and hungers
to do small jobs. The matter was re
ferred to tlio executive commitee. A
communication was received from the
Typographical union informing the
meeting that the executive com
mittee of that union had drawn
n check in the sum of $00.00
for the bonolit of the striking painters
nnd paper-hangers.
At 11 o'clock it was announced that a
committee of master painters wove in
waiting to confer with the executive com-
mjttce. The chairman appointed a com
mittee to escort them to the rooms of the
executive committee. The gentlemen
representing the master painters wore
Messrs. Henry Lehman , Charles Hunt ,
H. Kosonswoig and Carl Harmon.
This committee held an extensive confer
ence with tiie executive committee of the
painters and hangers , and agreed to pro-
Kent an oH'er sometime this afternoon.
Mr. Carl Harmon , a master painter ,
in ado the assertion in the presence
of a IIK ! : reporter that if
the master painters did not
accede to the terms of tlio worKinen he
hiniKolf would withdraw from the Mus
ter Painter's organization. Mr. Harmon
was greeted with considerable applause
whenever ho passed through the assem
bly room.
The proposition of the master painters
ns adopted by them Tuesday night will
not bo entertained by the executive com
mittee.
The executive committee of the
painters and paper hangers were in
session again last evening in Grand
Army hall , and considerable discussion
was had. It was finally resolved to await
another proposition from the maa cr
painters which , U Is understood , the
latter will muko to-day.

The brick moulders of Omaha give as
their side of the difficulty with' their cm-
> loyors , the following ;
l st summer liyo days notice was given
to the brick manufacturers to consider
certain terms. The moulders held a
meeting and Invited the manufacturers to
bo present , and the only manufacturer
there was Mr. Livoscy , who , " as
soon as ho saw no other man
ufacturer present , left. The mould
ers held several meetings last
week and determined to demand $3 per
day. They do not ask s charged an advance -
vance of 20 per cent , but simply demand
? IJ for 0,000 bricli which would bo an ad
vance of 8 cents per thousand. The
moulders say they do not nronoso to
stop any man from work unless they can
quietly convince him that it is to bis in
terest so to do. They claim that the
manufacture of brick does not cost in
Omaha more than tl.25 per 1,000 , and
though in their statements the
manufacturers say they are selling brick
from $7 to $ ! per thousand , the mould
ers declare that in fact they charge for
their orickno less than $10 per thousand.
Tlio moulders say they do not wish to
stop building. Neither do they wish to
inconvenience the general public , but
they propose to cling to their demands.
if. however , any citi/.en wishes any
building done he can secure lirst-clasi
brick and workmen at fair prices bv ap
plying to the secretary of the Brick
Moulders'union , 2M5Cumlng street , city.
In some of the yards the brickmolders
resumed work yesterday afternoon.
HOUNC1XO THKSQUATTI3U9. _
Wealthy Citizens Combine to ilrlvo
tlio llottoinllcs From Home.
Constable Edgorton yesterday morning
performed a rather disagreeable duty in
announcing to the squatters on the river
bottom betwconJones andlloward streets ,
thai they were to bo evicted by the strong
arm of the law. The notices wore served
upon twelve squatters within tlio limits
namedto appear before Judge McCulloch
of the county court and make ans\yer
why they should not yield up possession
of this land to Messrs. Byron Heed. D. C.
Sutphcn , Charles Sutphen and Drake ,
who have commenced suit to obtain pos
session of this land.
From time immemorial these squatters
or "bottomitcs" as they are some
times known , havs squatted on this terri
tory. They were long undisturbed , ex
cept as tlio railroads Happened to drive
them to the one side or the other. A few
months ace the B. & M. railroad wanted
to lay its tracks across the land then oc
cupied by the squatters , and persuaded
them to move nearer tlio river or within
sixty feet of the banks. And now as it
seems they arc to bo driven from this
strip of land.
Some , in fact all , of these squatters arc
in circumstances of desperate poverty.
They live from hand to mouth , not
knowing on one day where their board
for the next is to come from. Most of
them united in deploring tlio wretched
state in which they would lind themselves
when driven from the homes , they have
built on the banks of the river.
Two of the squatters declared that they
would build boats to live in and lloat
them on the river , moored to the shore.
The rest , however , declared that they
would unite in employing coursel to
light the case , on the ground that 00 feet
of the land next to the river
belonged to the government , and
that , consequently , they , ( the
squatters ) were onunitcd States soil.
An imprecation which one old Irish
woman hurled at Constable Edgerton. as
his portly frame disappeared through her
door , probably cxprcss-es the sentiment
of all the squatters. She shouted at him :
' 'Bad 'cess to ye , ye dhurty spalpeen and
do min as yo're wurkin' fur. May do
devil lly away wid yer sowl ! "

THE SENATOR'S HOUSE.
encral IMnndcrnon Angry For tlio
First Time in Ilia Life.
Everybody in Omaha knows the
genial senior United States senator ,
leneral Mandcrson , and but few ever
not him without a pleasant smile was
ippling around his countenance to form
in eddy for n kind greeting or perhaps a
ivavy anecdote. Yesterday , however ,
icro was a change in his deportment
md his attitude like his straw hat was
icw. Ho carried himself like a warrior
-the "pun" had given way to the sword ,
n fact , the senator was angry , and it is
doubtful if an Alaskan applying for a
favor could have gota hearing. It was
only personal friendship that allowed a
reporter of the BKI ; to approach him , and
"t was only the desire to let the valve of
re open then and there that relieved the
senator of a little part of his anger and
gave to tlio world the subject matter of
such things , as are written :
Talk not of u'riot''till them lias seen the tears
ot warlike men. "
In n word the senator has been expend
ing a great deal of money on a favorite
horse that was sick. Being a lover of
domestic animals and especially the
horse , and this particular horse , expense
for curatjvo purposes \vas no object.
Veterinarians hail been called in , but
seemingly to no effect. The horse , they
said , had a stomach disease. Finally Dr.
Chambers was summoned. Ho found the
trouble was a decayed tojth and ho ex -
traoted it. The horse immediately com
menced to improve. "Darn it , " said the
senator , "I never heatd of horse dentis
try before , and if my animal had been a
little shorter , so that the other doctors I
called in might mistake a bellyache for a
toothache , I wouldn't care much. But
as it is I'm going to get a book from the
agricultural department hereafter , and
regulate my own horses. "
'
Then tlio'senator walked off as com
placently as if ho had secured a pension
for a Iriend soldier.

Jenny Green Appears In n Question
able Garment nnd la Arrested.
Judge Borka , who is for the next two
years to hold down the wool-sack In tlio
police court , took his scat yesterday
morning.
The case of the city of Omaha vs.
Jenny Green was first called. The defendant -
fondant was a somewhat notorious wo
man who had been arrested by Ollicer
O'Grady. She was charged with wear
ing a Mother llubbard dress. Shu
had appeared on the street
with that questionable garment , and as i t
Haunted its scarlet silken folds In the
breeze , more of the young woman's
anatomy was visible than strict ideas of
propriety would warrant. So O'Grady
arrested her.
She was discharged by Judge Berka ,
who warned her never to appear
on the streets in a Mother Hub-
bard again. It 111:13' : bo remembered that
Miss Green was arrested three years ago
by Marshal Cummings for the same of-
fcnso.
Sarah Uowons was fined $5 and costs
for street-walking. Several unimport
ant cases of drunks and vagrants were
disposed of.
A Pitched Battle.
Stuart Ilocd , living at Nineteenth and
Spring streets , procured a warrant yester
day in police court for the arrest of Fred ,
Charles , Joe and Mike Pontag. who at
tacked his homo last night with bricks
and .bloncs. Itecd fired throe or four
shots into the crowd and dispersed them ,

"Omaha haa never made much effort
to secure national or oven state conven
tions" said a citizen yesterday. "And I
am sorry for it. Those gatherings in
variably help the cities in which they
take place. This year , however , wo are
( o have more than our share , and 1 hope
Omaha will show her appreciation of
them , and see tlic advantage of encour
aging them so that the noxtyear may brinif
no fewer gatherings within our limits.
The arrest of a young woman for wear-
inc a Mother llubbard dress on the street
brings to mind the crusade against this
article of feminine apparel which was In
augurated by Marshal Cumings three
years ago. Shortly after that ollicial
stopped into olllce ho issued an order that
no woman should be allowed to appear
on the streets in a Mother llubbard dress.
Ho followed this up with an arrest or two ,
and this garb , as an article of street ap
parel , became all at once verv unfashion
able. This little act of the marshal's at
tracted the attention of the newspapers
all over the country and did much to ad
vertise Omaha. It also made the marshal
the butt of endless jokes and "gags. "

Ben Gilfoil , an old time minstrel man
is in the city. At the time of the Ryan-
Sullivan fight he was in Louisiana , doing
a burnt cork act with Havcrly's minstrels.
The news of the battle which was to come
oil' between the two great giants of tlio
pugilistic arena spread far and wide
throughout the state , and brought Hav-
erly'8 men to the scene of the conlllct.
Gilfoil , who was well known among
sporting men , \yas chosen to act as ring
ma-stor. Speaking of tlio fight tlio other
night he said : "It was not a long battle ,
nor could it be called a stubbornly con
tested one. Nevertheless it was an inter
esting light , and a good deal of pluck
and science was destroyed on both sides.
Before cither man had stepped into the
ring , betting gave odds in favor of llyan.
The bets were runnincr as a general thing
$100 to $80 in favor of llyan. The min
strel boys were all betting on llyan.
Many of them know him personally , and
ho was a great favorite with them. 1 re
member 1 took all the money I could on
Sullivan , despite the fact that my friends
laughed at mo and told uio 1 was Hying
in tlio face of Providence. But
I thought I knew what I
was about , and scooped in just
an even ? 350 worth of bets. The first
blow that Sullivan struck convinced me
that ho was the winner. He had barely
ceased shaking Ryan's hand , according
to the rules of the ring , when he lot out
his left and hit tlio Trojan gi.int a terrific
blow on the jugular. Ryan droppeil to
the ground , as though ho had been shot ,
and looked up i\t \ Sullivan with an ex
pression on his face that seemed to say :
"Great CJod , what have 1 been struck
with ! " After that Ryan's defeat was a
foregone conclusion. He made a pluck } '
light , but Sullivan was too much for
jinn. Yes , Ryan was a good man , there
is no question about that. To my think
ing ho is the only man , who can stand
anywhere near making a show against
Sullivan. "

The Third Brick to Go Up on Thir
teenth Street This Year.
The design of the ilrst now building to
bo erected on the Anheuser-Busch prop
erty , corner of Jones and Thirteenth
streets , has at last been llnislied , It
shows tlio structure to be of five stories ,
with torra-cotta and cut-stone trimmings.
It has a beautiful and commanding ap
pearance , and at the same time an air of
stability which distinguishes all the
tructurcs in other cities of this well-
itiown firm. The ground lloor will have
, hrec stores , while the upper stories will
bo used for wareroom and ollico pur
oses. On the corner at the intersection
of the streets there will bo a circular
window projecting from the building and
extending to the roof. This gives an ad-
litional element of beauty to the struc-
; ure , and makes the latter a companion
) ioco to tlio Barker hotel across the
street , which has a somewhat similar
lesigii. Henry Yoss is the architect.
The City Attorney's llcport.
The following is the report of City At
torney Council to Mayor Boyd.
OMAHA , Neb. , May Hd , 1837 Hon.
James E. Boyd , Dear Sin In compli
ance with you request , I have the honor
to submit for your examination and con
sideration , a report of the legal depart
ment of tlio city , showing in detail the
number of cases and nature of the suits
now pending against the city.
At the present time there are pending
in the several courts 157 suits against the
city , involving claims to the amounts of
f303.0ia.43.
A number of the cases above referred
to. in addition to the amount in contro
versy , involve questions which arc of the
utmost importance to tlio city.
The case of Schaller vs. Omaha , now
pending in the supreme court , involves
the question as to the right of a jury to
consider special bone fits against damages
resulting from grading.
The case ot the Plnunix Insurance com
pany vs. Omaha , now pending in the
supreme court , involves the right of the
city to tax the business of insurance
companies.
The case of the Medical College vs.
Omaha , is another case involving the
right of taxation for municipal purposes.
In all of thcso cases the judgments of
the district court wore in favor of the
city , and I confidently expect an af
firmance by the supreme court of such
judgments ,
The sum of $13.103.48 now stands to
thn credit of the judgment fund , with no
outstanding judgments unpaid.
But for the entry of judgments for the
amounts allowed by the council and ap
praisement committees for land appro
priated or for changes of grade , the judg
ment fund of 188(5 ( , would at this time
almost equal the amount of the
original levy. During the past four
years , covering my term of ofliclal
service , claims against the city , aggregating -
gating the Sinn of $203,141.02 , have been
disposed of and forever wiped out ot ex
istence , the city being held not liable to
the extent of a dollar. In no case during
that entire period of time has a verdict
been returned unfavorable to the city era
a judgment rendered adverse to the in
terests of the city.
In conclusion permit mo to thank you
for the interest yon have always mani
fested in this department , and the kindly
consideration and gentlemanly treat
ment I have always received at your
hands. Notwithstanding our political
ditlerences , our personal and oluclal re
lations have always been most cordial
and pleasant , and I have over found you ,
as I have endeavored myself to be , a
faithful representative of the intorcsts of
our city. With sincere respect I remain
very truly , your obedient so'rvant ,
W. J. CORNELL , City Attorney.
A Card From Mr. Peck.
OUAIIA , May 11. To the Editor of the
BEE : Your issue of Thursday contained
an item in regard to some beef sold by
myself. ' The Item ia false la every re
spect aud I am led to buliovo that -your

beef spoken of was killed In November
last and was sold to three differ
ent families im the neighborhood at
about that time , and a reasonable
presumption would bo that the said beef
w\ : * long ago consumed. No sickness
occurred in the families referred to.
About 300 pounds of the beef was used in
my family , consisting of nine persons ,
and no sickness has occurred among
thorn up to this date. 1 invite the most

Ever since our opening here we have labored under great disad
vantage on account of our store being too crowded. We were here
tofore not able to get such a large place as we desired , and not only
were we prevented from keeping the stock we intended , but we
could not even properly display the assortment we did carry.
We have at last succeeded in securing additional room and have
leased the two floors above as also the rear part adjoining our store
on 14th street. This , in addition to our present salesroomwill make
us the largest clothing house in the west.
The necessary alterations will crowd us fearfully , and this as well
as the desire to cmen the enlarged quarters with entirely fresh
goods prompts us in making a SPECIAL SALE , at which we will
offer extraordinary bargains.
"We are Now Marking down our Stock throughout at such
prices that it will make a stir in the clothing trade , and will move
our goods quickly.
All goods marked in plain figures and at one price.
