Kcant Moysten , several days since , and
turned over to the United States authorities ,
wcrcnrralntfcd before Judge Dutuly yesterday
morning. They pleaded not guilty. The first
witness called was Captain Cormlek. Ho
said the gang , who occupied n small room in
tumble-down shanty on Sixteenth strcetncar
Webster , have been under the police
nurvcllnnco for sometime , nnd on
Monday night last the ren
dezvous was raided. Ho and Moysten en
tered the house. They found Hill In bed and
McKlnnlo sitting nt a small tnblo pouring
over a volume entitled , "Dick's Kncyclopcdln
of Practical Receipts. " The woman was no
where to bo seen. Captain Cormlek Informed
McKlnsio that they were suspected of coun
terfeiting and they should consider them
selves under arrest. McKinsio protested
their innocence , nnd In response to nn in
quiry for the woman , ho replied that she
had gone to Sioux City. Conniek and Moya-
tcn , first locking tho' door , proceeded to
search the room. Hill was ordered to getup ,
and on throwing oil the bed clothe1) ,
Moysten discovered the negro woman under
the bed. She was immediately pulled out.
Cormlek meantime lind unearthed from a
gunny sack n small pockctbook In which
were five unfinished counterfeit silver half-
dollurs. This was considered evidence
enough and the trio wore marched off to the
nearest box , the putrol rung up nncl they
were taken to the city prison. The next
day the prisoners were turned over to United
States Marshal llicrbowcr nnd lodged in
Jail. Secret Service Ofllccr Steadman of DCS
Moincs was telegraphed for. Ho arrived hero
the following day , nnd together with Captain
Green nnd Detective Horighantho Sixteenth
street rendezvous was again searched. This
later search was more fruitful thnn the
former , as n lot of broken plaster-of-Pnris
moulds , some Habbitt metal , copper , zinc ,
stools for washing coin , ladles , nitric ncid ,
nnd other suspicious materials , were fonnd ,
but no more mohey. lit his testlmonyOfticer
Steadman said that all of thesu articles were
commonly used in the manufacture of coun
terfeit money , and that babbitt metal was
more extensively employed in mak
ing silver contcrfcit than anyone
ono other substance. Upon the con
clusion of the evidence , McICin/le , who Is n
sharp , shrewd -fellow , uroso and informed
the court that ho qould .show for what pur
pose they had been using every'materialthat
nnd been found in'his room. Ho confessed
nn utter ignorance of the law , and asked the
court to appoint counsel to protect him , nnd
to defer its decision until ho had had a con-
* imitation with an attorney. The request
was granted , the court appointing W. P.
Gurlcy to represent the prisoners , and fixing
upon to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock for the
time of resuming the trial. The prisoners
were thereupon remanded to jail.

The license board met Saturday afternoon
and considered the application of saloon
keepers who had complied with the law rc-
pcctlng advertising , etc. Chief of Police
Seavoy , Captain Green nnd Captain Cormick
were present , and the chief's report on sa
loons was read. Against the following sa
loonists specific charges were made , and the
board decided to refuse their applications :
Hans Peterson , 1503 Webster street ; J. A.
King , 1303 Douglas ; N. P. Wind , 1324 Doug-
'las ; the saloon corner Twentieth and Miami ;
Louis Lauritson , 2S01 Dodge ; W. II. Carney ,

Mayor Hroatch stated to a Bnn represent
ative yesterday morning that the above named

tors were considered. His honor also stated

The mnyor was asked what remedy the
law afforded to saloonkeepers ordered to

city if it saw lit. " Ho stated further that no
Injunction i-ould bo secured against the po
lice , but that when , on January 10 , the sa

Her in the Trust.
A reporter for the UKK called on P. E. Her
yesterday to ascertain what ho proposed to do
with reference to the Whisky trust. In re
sponse to several Inquiries the latter said :
"Wo have Joined the trust. Wo joined it
on Saturday last. I don't think anything
has yet been filed on the subject. It is not
exactly necessary. 1 ho abstracts which we
have made have been intended solely to show
what wo possess. Nearly all the distilleries
in the country have gone in with us. Wo
have not sold out. We have simply taken a
certain amount of stock in the trust. The
amount of stock in the trust Is n privnto mat
ter. I do not earn to mention it. No , we
have not sold out. Wo can leave the trus
by disposing of the stock wo havosecured ,
though wo have signiilcd our willingness to
remain in it for llvo years. Quito a consid
crablo number of distilleries In the country
have bcci > closed by this plan. There is now
ono running in St. Louis nnd but two or
three in Chicago. No , it is not the intention
of the trust to rnlso the price of whisky , but
dimply to control the production of liquor iu
the country so that the manufacture of it
may bo made remunerative to the manufac
turers. Wo are interested prorata in the
proceeds of the trust. Wo shall run our ills
illlcry to its full capacity. It will probably
bo the only ono in the west. I shall bo the
local treasurer and manager. If prohibition
should obtain in this state , wo will manufac
ture souio other place , possibly in Peoria. "

columns several times during the past week ,
the now offices of the Chicago , Milwaukee &
St. Paul road , in Unrkcr building , south
west corner of Fifteenth nndFurnnm streets ,
were yesterday thrown open to the public.
The roadh ad secured the place before the

on both sides , and nro supplied
with beautiful furnishings while
the walls are decorated in most beautiful
gold and lavender paper , giving the place the
brightest and most attractive appearance.
The reception which attended the opening
was a novel one. Every prominent citizen in
town was present , and those of them who
felt disused to appreciate liquid refresh
ments were escorted to the crystal-
ofllco of General Agent Nash , which opens
off the miiiii olllce , where n Hacchus bowl , in
which slumbered , with a wavy , tremulous
activity , H nectarine combination of chum-
pagno und other ingredients. This was presided -

sample room of the Hotel Barker , n young
gentleman who , after llvo years' cxpcrienco
behind the counter of the Sherman hotel

compound the beverage for the delectation
of the Milwaukee's friends. Besides these ,
cigar boxes stood around on convenient rests ,
nnd the atmosphere of about seventeen diam
eters , In which everybody revelled , loaded as
it was with the grateful aroma of Cuban
weeds , attested at once the appreciation of
the guests and the discriminating knowledge
of the parties in charge of the means which
renders perfect every feast and enshrouds
every popular gathering in n cloud of appre
ciation and good cheer. Mr. Nash stood nt
the door and met nnd welcomed every guest ,
while in various ways , well-known and com
petent assistants , C. S. Carrier , ticket agent ;
J. H. Arthur , contracting agent ; J. H.
Green , passenger agent ; John H. Kccne ,

The Pythian Supreme Lodge.
A representative of the BncmctMr. J. S.
Shropshire , ono of the supreme representa
tives of the Nebraska Grand Lodge Knights
of Pythias to the Supreme lodge of that
order , and speaking of the next session of
the Supreme lodge , Mr. Shropshire said : "I
confess I was surprised to learn of the
trouble the Cincinnati knights are meeting In
their arrangements for the session of the
fiuprcmo body. I was at Toronto when the
supreme chancellor read the tele
grams from the citizens of Cincinnati ,
in which they pledged every accommodation
and attention it the session would bo held
there. Upon these enthusiastic assurances
the session was voted to that city. Through
out the United States unusual interest has
been manifested iu the next scssisn of the
supreme ledge und it has been anticipated
that that session would bo an unusually bril
liant ono. The citizens of Cincinnati agreed
to ralso § 10,000 with which to entertain their
Pythian visitors , but I am astonished to see
how they have failed to keep their promise.
Without n dollar fiom the citizens , however ,
the sunrcmo ledge can go there and transact
its business but the session would fall far
short of the interest and brilliancy expected
of it. Many divisions of the uniform rank
will not go in the event of the guarantee
fund not being raised. I am pleased to sco
the UBB agitating the question and hope that
Immediate steps will bo taken to formally
InVlto the body to this city. Omaha can
well afford to entertain the 15,000 strangers
the session would bring to it , and the strength
of the order in Nebraska Is ample assurance
that a cordial reception and moro thnn gener
ous treatment would bo accorded the visiting
knights.
"It Is very likely that the Cincinnati trouble
will bo bridged over , but if not and the con
vention should go elsewhere , Omaha's claims
would bo ut least worth presenting. "
