GETTING AT BOTTOM 'FACTS
Clinlrmnn Pattlaon Gradually Vn-
, ' r thing the Inside History , of tlio
Method * of the Union Paoldo
Ilallwny People.
.Tho Session Yesterday.
The first iniin called to testify by tho'
Union Pncilio investigating coinmlUeu
yesterday morning was George N. Craw
ford. Ho had been employed by the
Union Pacific as n lobbyist last winter
at the legislature , ho said , in connect
ion with 1'uul Vandervoort and others.
"What are the dutio3 of a lobbyist , "
inquired Governor Pattison.
"To influence legislators in every way
possible , " promptly replied the witness.
"What means did you use to iulluenco
legislators ? "
" 1 used my eloquence , " suid Mr.
Crawford.
The witness went on to say that ho wns
a railroad man at heart and believed
that the best interests of the state de *
inandcd that the attempted railroad
legislation at Lincoln last winter should
bo defeated.
"I was employed , " said he , "by John
M. Thurslon. When the session was
over I received about ? 400. "
"What was this money for , " inquired
the governor , "wns it a gift ? "
The witness didn't know just exactly
why the mopey was given , but supposed
it was for his services as a lobbyist.
He was then examined as to getting
passes and said he had got quite a num
ber for the legislators and their friends
and had novcr been refused passes when
he asked for them.
In explanation of his methods as a lob
byist tilt. Crawford said ho had enter
tained the members of the legislature in
his room at the hotel by telling them an
ecdotes , by conversation by setting
up the wlno and cigars. Some of the
wine and cigars he paid for and part
of them were paid for by someone elscpo
the landlord told him. Witness didn't
know whether it was the-Union Pacific
company which had paid the bills or not.
Being asked whether money had been
used to influence legislators in casting
their votes , the witness said :
"It you mean to ask , governor , if 1 paid
member. * of the legislature to vote as 1
wanted them to , I tell you emphatically
no , " said the witness , shaking his head
vigorously ,
v'Who was associated with you in the
work at Lincoln ? " asked the governor.
"Mr. Vandervoot , Mr. Gurloy , Mr.
Thurston and Mr. Manchester , " replied
the witness.
"I will tell you frankly. I went down
to the legislature , " continued the candid
Mr. Crawford , "to help keep the demo
crats together and defeat Van Wyck.
Then I wanted to defeat him because ho
was an anti-railroad demagogue. I am
opposed to interfering with railroads by
legislation , I will frankly give you my
opinion that these railroad bills were
, simply introduced by political dema
gogues to further their own ends. "
"Do you think that this spirit of dcma-
gogery lay at the bottom of the desire of
the people for this kind of legislation t"
inquired the governor.
"No , I don't know that it did. " said
Mr. Crawford.
When ho had finished examining the
witness , the governor , who was evi
dently rather pleased than otherwise at
his candid statement of his views on the
subject of railroads and railroad legisla
tion , suid to him with a twinkle of merri
ment in his eye :
"Will you give us a sample of your elo
quence , Mr. Crawford , I believe you say
you can grind it out whenever you waut
to ? "
"I believe" replied the witness in the
same spirit "that is ono of the attributes
of an orator. 1 don't think , however , it
would bo worth my while to try to con
vince you. I think probably you have
been there yourself. "
"If vou mean that I have been a lobbyist -
ist , " said the governor , "you are mis.
taken. That is something now to me. "
"Well , you see the larthcr west you
go , " said the witness , "tho more cnlight
mcnt you got. You will tind it so , cleat
to the coast. "
Judge Littler then took the witnesi
and asked him what the general scnti-
mcnt of the people in Nebraska was ir
regard to the Uuion Pacific road. Ho replied
plied that some wore friendly and sonic
were hostile to the road , but added thu
the latter wore mostly demagogues ant
professional politicians. Ho was thei
questioned by Judge Littler and Mr. Pop
ploton as to tlio bnnotits derived by UK
state from the Union Pacific road , am
wont on to give a lot of pioneer history
i about the low price of lands , rude meaui
of transportation and danger from In
I diaus before the road was built. Mr
Popploton Eoeuicd to enjoy thii
part of the testimony more than tha
given by the witness in answer to Gov
crnor Pattiaon's question. The lattei
gentleman , however , listened irnpa
„ tiently , and finally said :
" 1 want to say to you , Judge Popple
ton , that there isn't any question abou
tlio matters you are examining the wit
ness on , that has all been gene over be
fore. "
Mr. Popploton thereupon brought tin
examination to a close , and Govorno
Patlison brought the witness back to th' '
subject of investigation.
"Vou have named the advantages th
state of Nebraska has received from thread
road , now can you name some of th
disadvantages , " said ho , eyeing the wit
nes.3 keenly.
, The witness couldn't think of any
.although he had hoard some complaints
ho believed.
"If ono locality was allowed bettc
rates than another , would that bo to th
advantage of the locality discriminate *
against ? " asked the governor.
Mr. Crawtoid didn't think It would
but added that he didn't think railroad
could bo operated successfully withou
some localities being dkscrimlnutei
niruinst ,
Frank P. Hanlon was again placed 01
the stand and shown vouchers to th
Union Pacific for his hotel bills at Lin
coin during the last legislature , and fo
incidentals. The bills wcru O. K.'d b
"J. M. T. , " "T. P. K. , " and J. T. Clark
Witness explained that "J. M. T. " mean
John M. Thurston and "T. P. K. " stuoi
for T. P. Kimball.
Thu incidentals in one bill wcro $32J
Air. Hanlon was closely questioned ate
to what these incidental expenses wen
but had lost the memoranda he kept n
the time and wasn't able to toll , He wa
' t also shown a voucher for Juno , 1884 , i
which traveling expenses and incidental
wcro charged lit $74. Auditor Young wn
asked to produce the original papers i
connection with the vouchers , but tli
envelope produced did not contain an
itemized statement of the expenses ir
currod. Ho said those were tbo only p :
pers he had ever received , hlthoug
the witness testified that ho had mad
out tiuoh statements from bis meiuorand
and submitted thorn to Mr. Kimbull , wh
had approved them.
Witness was ulso shown a voucher fc
traveling and incidental expenses n
special agent during July and Augui
1684 , amounting to | 96.60 and asked t
explain , la this case as the other M
Hanlon b'ad lost his memoranda and wt
Us Vl ( V filvu d t t U < 1 Governor Pa

tison made a formal'call , on'Auditor
Young for the ordinal papers showing
'itemized statement in connection 'with
this voucher , and the latter replied that
ho had produced nil'tho papers there
wcro in his offices. >
"Theso expenses wore merely incurred
while you were doing detective work for
the companyj were they not ? ' , ' inquired
Mr. Popploton.
"That was all"said Mr. Hanlon de
murely.
The witness was examined briolly as to
his w.ork at the legislature and J. M.
Thnrston's connection with it.
At the conclusion of this part of the
examination Governor Puttlson said tu
Comptroller Mink :
"I again mnku a formal call for the np-
pcuranuo of John M. Thurston before
this commission. Wo have searched
everywhere for him and haven't been
able to lintl him "
Mr. Mink looked worried but made no
reply. '
I want to say to this commission , "
said Mr. Poppleton , "that the Union I'a
oilic ollicers havu no power over Mr
I'liurston and cannot prodticu the body
of Mr. Thurston before this commission.
"And I want to say , " s.\id Governor
Patti&on , turning to the stenographer ,
"that J. M. Thurston is onu of the otHeial
attorneys of this road , that ho is a very
important witness and that the ollioers
of this company have said they had no
desire to conceal anything , but wautod
a free and full investigation. "
Lawyer Poppleton then gave the re-
portur'tha statement that he didn't know
whore Mr. Thurston was , but didn't believe -
lievo ho was trying to avoid the commis
sion. "If 1 had any information as to
his whereabouts I would gladly give it ,
and if I gctany information where he is
I will plucc it in the hands of the com
mission. "
After examining some vouchers in re
gard to the Oregon Short Line the com
mission adjourned until 2 o'clock. Last
evening they started for Sioux City and
will spend to-orrow in evamining
the alluirs of the Sioux City & Pncilic
road. They will then return and
resume their investigation here until
Saturday morning , when they will start
on a tour of inspection over the branch
lines of the Union Pacific system in Kan
sas and Nebraska.
William M. Fiannagnn , cashier for the
packing house of Harris & Fisher , was
the first witness railed at the afternoon
session. In answer to questions by Gov
ernor Pattison ho said hu was Yardmaster -
master for the stock yards with which
Mr. Nicholas was connected. Stock
shipped to Mr. Nicholas' yards wcro ar
bitrarily shipncd over the river to Mr ,
Paxton's yards in Council Ulufi's. In ono
case a man named Hobbins told witness
that ho had endeavored to ship some
stock from Kearney and was informed
by the agent of the Union Pacific at
Kearney that if ho shipped to Council
Binds he would get the benefit of the
cut rate , but if lie shipped to the stock
yards on the Omaha side of the river ho
would be obliged to pay local rates. The
"
difference between the "cut rate and the
local rate amounted to $70 per car.
There were a number of instances of this
kind. The effect was to injure the busi
ness of the Nicholas yards to the extent
of $100 or ? 150 a week. They wore finally
obliged to go out of business on account
of this discrimination.
Witness was employed also to build
the Union stock yards on this side
of the river and wns yardmaster at these
yards for about a year. Witness had
gene over to the Council ISlufis yards and
worked about three weeks , with the un
derstanding that ho was to bo the yard-
master. Owinjr to the efforts ot Swan
and others ho was prevented from get
ting the place. Olio morning the witness
was standing on the transfer platform at
Council lilull's , not far from a group com
posed of Alex and Henry Swan , Mr.
Spratley and Mr. J. G. Clark , and then
heard tuo statement by Paxton in regard
to Nicholas , to which witness made an
affidavit , placed on file last wook.
After Governor Pattison had finished
examining the witness Mr. Popploton
asked him if ho know that what Robbing
told him was true. Ho replied that he
only knew that Robbing had told him
about the conversation with the agent at
Kearney. He was asked if Nicholas
wasn't pinched for money all the time
ho was running his stock yards , and
whether ho had sufficient money to start
them.Vitness suid he believed Nicholas
had sufficient funds and was never
pinched for money so far as he know.
At the end of Mr. Klunnigan's ex
amination Governor Pattison read
a communication from the
mayor of Council Bluff's anil
the boa d of trade of the sinv3 ; place stat
ing that the citizens of Council lilull's
had no special grievances against the
Union Pacific road.
Mr. Kosewater , editor ot the Bnr , was
the next witness called and was exam
ined at length , after which the commis
sion adjourned until Thursday morning
at 10 o'clock.

What the Commission Atay Vet Dote
to Obtain It * Payment.
A'grcat deal has bocn said In the past
few days by.tho opponents of Chief Sea-
voy , to the effect that the presence
of Governor Thaycr hero on last Sunday
and Monday was occasfoucd by the un
warranted interest which it was claimed
ho was taking in the all'airs of the police
and tire commission. Yesterday mornIng -
Ing Mr. llartman was asked about thu
matter.
"Tho ' " ho said
governor's presence , ,
"has not been occasioned by the police
commission. He simply came here on the
Invitation of Father Dowlmg , of Crclgh-
ton college , to bo present at thu laying of
tlio corner stone of St. John's church.
Ho stopped with me a great part of the
timo. 1 don't believe , during the time
ho spent hero thu subject of the com
mission was mentioned to him more
than ,1 couple of times. In
response , ho remarked ho was
satisfied with the selection of mem
bers ho had made , ho felt they were tlio
right men for the position ,
"Yrs , 1 am willing to admit that it was
n mistake that the commission did not offi
cially notify the council of its act ap
pointing Seavoy chief. But we did it
through thu mayor. We told him and ho
accepted the bond. But courtesy would
have promoted us to have notified the
council. Hereafter we shull so notify
that body.
"Yes , wo shall conduct our business
with open door. * . Up to this we have
been holding executive sessions , such as
the council does sometimes. Wo could
not do otherwise when considering the
character of aspirants. Henceforth we
shall caucus in private , and where action
is required , we shall take it in open ses
sion.
"Wo have not considered , as a board ,
the suggestion of going to law to determ
ine' Cuminings' right to draw his salary
any more than wo shall go to law to de
termine the right of the council to nay
him. The council may pay him if they
want to just as they may pay you if tli cy
want to. Cummings is not working for
us , and wo have nothing to do with him.
"Seavey's salary ? That will be all
right. If Mr. Scavey wants any money ,
we can easily see that he gets it , by
bringing the question into the courts and
securing an order frorn ono of the judges
compelling the council to pay. No ac
tion has been taken on tiiis question , and
of course , will not bo taken until such a
course shall bo deemed necessary. "

THE SUNDAY IMBIlOGIjlO.
Pithy Talks With Business Men Con
cerning This Subject.
A BEE reporter spent some tSmoyester-
daymorninz in interviewing roprosonta-
ivo business men on the proposed half
Saturday holidav and Sunday base ball ,
with the following results :
Mr. S. P. Morse , dry goods , 1315 and
1317 Farnam street , thinks that tlio ball
grounds are a preferable Sunday resort
to the boor gardens and worse dives , and
approves of tiie game. It gives a largo
element who have no other day but Sun
day to themsulvesa good , solid , healthy ,
enjoyable afternoon , and it would bo
barburious to deprive them of it. And
then , too , manv of the best men , of the
city attend tliesG Sunday games. Ho also
believes in the half Saturday holiday ,
only is a little apprehensive that it would
prove a serious inconvenience for work
ing men to find the business houses
closed Saturday afternoons.
11. A. Thompson , of Thompson , Bcldon
& Co.dry goods.takes no interest in base
ball Sunday or anv other day , but thinks
mon might pass their Sunday afternoons
to better advantage if they didn't go to
places of much worse ropulo. Thinks
Friday would be a much bettor dav to
devote a half holiday , if it is feasible at
all. Saturday half holiday would never
do under any circumstances.
S. A. Orchard , draperies and carpets
Had nothing to say one way or the
other on cither subject.
General Frederick approves of the Sat
urday half holiday. Says its all the go
east. About Sunday base ball well ,
everybody comes pretty near knowing
the general's feelings there.
Mr. Sherfy , of O'Donuhoo & Shorfy ,
don't think the Saturday half-holiday
can bo unanimously adopted. Would
favor a discontinuance of Sunday ball
playing heartily.
Albert Culm , clothier , approves of Sun-
dav bull playing unless Saturday can bo
universally set aside for a half holiday ,
by stores , shops , factories and all. This
would give clerks , mechanics and the
working men of all classes opportunity
to enjoy the great national game.
I ) . It. Bowman , hardware , has given
Sundav ' base , ball no thought at all , but
would'shut np shop Saturday afternoon
if all would.
Max Meyer most emphatically
endorses the Saturday half-
holiday , and if the scheme
could be perfected will bo ono of tlio first
to put his autograph to such an agree
ment. Docs not believe in attempting to
suppress Sunday ball playing. It is the
sport of the nation , moral and elevating
inftono , and a healthful sport at any and
all times.
Rev. T. M. House I have great hope
for the future ot Omaha , but 1 do not
think our best wLiho.s will bo realized
until tlio law * , for thu preservation of tlio
Sabbath are charitably enforced.
MAYOIt IIIIO.VTCII.
Mayor Broatch yesterday morning told
a BIE : reporter , that tin1 committee ap
pointed at the Sunday observance meet
ing Monday to cull upon him , for action
in tlio prcmihcs , hud not yet made their
appearance.
"Have you yet made up your mind as
to what YOU will siiy to them , when they
cully" asKud the reportur.
"No , lha\enot. "
"What will you tell thorn when they
call ? "
"I'll tell them I'll think over it. "
ATTOUSKY MMKItAT , .
"The question of bull playing on Sun
day is a misdemeanor , undoubtedly. But
I have nothing to do with it. That hap
pens to bo the duty of the assistant city
attorney. 1 shall take no notion in thu
promises. "
The Methodists.
At a meeting of the local ministers ol
the Methodist Episcnpl church at the First
M. E. church Monday morning , Rev. C.
W. Savldgc was appointed a committee to
suggest to the Clerical Sunday Observ
ance association the propriety of holding
a general convention for the purpose ol
discussing the question of putting a stop
to base ball and other Sunday games and
also to take such steps us may bo con
sidered expedient for thu due observance
of the Sabbath.
