Mnttlc Kollmrycr After Her Fortune A Chung" In the Milwaukee's Time Card The Trouble In theltcpubllcan Cnmp. The Urlcklnycrs "Out. " In the conferences held between the brick contractors and the bricklayers the Inttcr gave the former to understand Unit on nnd fitter yesterday they would.cx poet to bo paid H.M for eight hours' work. They had up to last Saturday night been working at the rate ofM.&O for nine hours. On last Saturday night they gave their employers to under stand that they would not resuino labor unless at the now rate , and ho far as could he ascer tained worn told by the con tractors , with possibly one exception , that they need not come arounu yesterday morning. The bricklayers complied witii the admonition , and as n consequence , there was not n brick laid yesterday on any building on which up to Saturday night bricklayers had been engaged. Mr. Sheeley , In order to finish a contract , had some brick' ' layers at work on his building on the cornet 'of Howard nnd Fifteenth streets Sunday , But thelmcn did not appear yesterday. Wdrk on the Y. M. O. A. building was also discon tinued , and the services of liftecn men whc had been working for Norcoss Uros. on the New York I lfe insurance company's build Ing were also dispensed with. Several men Who were occupied on the Harris fc Fisher building on the corner of Eighteenth and Nicholas street also failed to return turn for work. The only exception learned was that of Contractors Hughes & Hrcnnan , who arc building the Mercy convent on the corner of Fifteenth and Ciwtellnr streets. It was reported bj members of the bricklayer's union that these. bosses had expressed it determination to pay the wages demanded. No work , however , was done on the structure , because little could bo done at best before evening because of the time which would bo required to clean the walls of snow and then heat the water for the work. It is probable that work will bo resumed at the new rates to-day if the weather permits. A HEC reporter , yesterday met several of the contractors and obtained froir them a variety of views concerniiif the situation. They nil claimed they would not acccdo to the demand ol the bricklayes , because they were unreasonable and unjust. This they claitr was shown to ttio journeymen by a consider- nto committed , consisting of Messrs. IJailcy , Llvescy and Johnson , who had been ap pointed to confer with them. The con tractors , however , claimed they had no ani mosity toward the Journeymen but felt thai their stand was Injurious to thl-rnsulves.thcii employers and the building prospects of the Reason. Thcro were but two cities in the country , namely Denver and Washington , it which $4.50 was paid for eight hours work , With these exceptions , they claimed brick layers were paid better.ln Omaha than in anj other city in the country In St. Louis they wcro paii only $4 for eight hours , and In Chicag < they received only the name wages. There wen between JtOO and -400 bricklayers in the city but up to the present time this year less thai BO possibly had been regularly employed The contractors further stated that they hat as yet made no arrangement to secure belt from abroad and did not know when thoj would muko the attempt. But , if the brick layers refused to come to terms , the con tractors would , if they could do so , bo cor.i polled to get assistance from abroad. Then was little work being done now and less wai being let because both people desiring to buil ( nnd contractors , looking for Jobs could no make up their minds how much work was t < cost or what to bid for the stuno. Ono con tractor said that the question at issue betwcet f bis associates and the bricklayers was no ono of dollars and cents. This gcntlcmai emphatically claimed that last season tin contractors did not get value for the wagci they paid. Mr. Ulako , representing Norcross Bros. the contractors of the Now York Life msur anco company's building , was seen by tin reporter , and among other things claimed that ho thought the bricklayers had mudo i mlstako in striking so. early in the year , nm thought that they should at least have woitei until about the llrst of May , by which timi r contractors would bo able to know what worl they would bo able to command. His Urn had bought a great deal of material at ad vnnccd rates , and ho did not think that ii such a c.iso it was Just the thin ] at this time to advance bulldim to pay an increased cost for put ting that material in place Cessation of labor would not affect his flrru It belonged to the Boston association of con tractors , the custom of which was to pay th * wn.jos in vogue in every town into which i cntorcd to do work. It was not its busincs to ir ako rates. While the strike would o cout so retard the completion of tlio Life in Bura ice company's building it would not in jure nis linn because all that was required o the latter was to exercise business dlscretioi in the carrying on of the work , other clausei in the loutraet protecting them In the even of strikes and other serious obstacles. Then was no time mentioned in their contract fo the completion of the building. Several of the leading members of tin | > rloklayers' union wcro afterwards seen b ; the reporter. They claimed that they wcr out to stay until their demand was reached The contractors were nnulo aware of this and hn J Known it for some weeks. But thui far about the only information given by th latter was what had been published in th . | mpcrs. The bricklayers had sought confer cnccs with the contractors , but the meeting held wcro irrepuler and no ultimatum hai been given. A bricklayer was worth f 1.5 for eight hours hard worl in the heat. They had take : this step as early ns they had in the yea in order to give their employers a chance t llguro at the now rate upon the work whicl is to bo done this bcnson. The change in wages was but a more bagn tclle oven upon tlio old profits of the con tractors , which were always ample , am while tiioy would afford the Journeymci about the same he received last year , but fo ono hour's less work , it would not meet will the objection of people desiring to bulk nor yet detract from the earnings of the con tractors. If bricklayers found employer who were willing to pay the now rates o wages they were at liberty to work for then Irrespective of the number of Journeymei who might remain Idle. In conclusion the , claimed the union was willing to take con tracts and give bonds for the satisfactor , performance of the same. coxiitArroiis AND DUIUIKIIS MEET.

Schrothi a relative of the family , and who Is intimately acnualntcdwith , ) all the details of the aise. The man Stevens who cnmo hero in search of the wayward Mattlc proves to bo her own father , Stevens Is a miser , and did own much valuable property In Sioux City , and also in Maine. Stevens is a temperance lecturer and street fakir. By following these vocations ho nmassed a fortune valued nt from ft' OOO to tTO.UOO and fettled down with his family In Sioux City to enjoy his income. The habits of his former life , however , made him wish to return to them and so ho turned over all his property In fee simple to his wife and started out on his wandering career again. This was live years ago nnd hohadiiccn gone but a few months when Mrs. Stevens died. She left no will and the property , according to the laws of the state of Iowa , must bo equally divided among thu heirs , six in num ber. Mattie's portion amounts to about * 11,000. On Friday last Mr. Stevens found out that Mattlo was living With her negro lover at Fremont. Ho ( started for this city but within an hour uf forwards Mnttio and her negro arrived In Omaha. They went directly to the house ot a friend on Dodge street. Next morning Mr. Stevens returned and met his daughter. The negro was prevailed upon to return to Fre mont and Mnttio yesterday started for Sioux City accompanied by her father. Ono of the strangest incidents coiv nccted with Mnttic Kollmeyer's life , who by the way was the honored wife of a well- known Sioux City painter , Is the fact that she gave birth to thrco children within twenty-eight months and fifteen days uftei her marriage. > The Stevens family Is ono of eminent rc > spcctability , and nearly nil of the male portion tion aru wealthy. Mnttio is the ono blucli sheep of thu family , but it Is said that she has cut aloof from all of the old degrading ties and will now live nu upright life. BENCH AND BAR. United fjtntca Court.

In the Sunday BIE : there Inadvertently ap pearcd an article relative to Mr. C. II Smith , the cx-prcsldent of the Omaha Re publican company. It was based on a state inent of O. II. Rothackr , vhfl charged Urn Mr. Smith liad taken t.OGO in Rcpublicai stock from the oftico safe without iiny riph or authority so to do. Inquiry now reveal the fact that the statement was wholly with out foundation. The facts nro : Mr Smith's wlfo loaned the Republican $5,000 , nnd Mr , Smith executed a note for th amount. Tlio S" > ,000 note was used to tak up a 1,500 unto in the Omaha National bank and Sl.BOU was plac.cd to th credit of the company. Mr. Smith made el forts to cret a loan upon the Test mortal ; ami stock used ns collateral , but nonq C ! th banks or trust companies would loan an money upon that security for tiny length u time , and when Mr. Smith's wife advance the money , Mr. , Smith gave her the sain security ho would Imvo given to a bank. Tin note and security are In the jiossession r Mr. U. W. Slmeral , ono of the attorneys fu Mr. Smith , whoso transaction was slmp'.y straightforward business matter.

Omnlm IB Getting Them In Niiinborx. Ono of the most noticeable proofs of the growing superiority of Omaha as n railroad nnd consequently as a receiving and distrib uting center , was the removal to this city on Saturday last of the office of W. J. Hancock , general superintendent of the Wells Fargo express company. Ho brinfrs with him a force of fifteen clerks , all of whom have been located in commodious and elegant quarters , comprising eight rooms in the United States national bank building. This office with its assistants was formerly located in Council Bluffs. The territory superintended by Mr. Hancock extends from Ogdcn to Chicago and southward , comprising all the lines of this well-known company ki Texas , Louisiana. Kansas , Dakota New Mexico , Colorado nnd Nebraska. The transfer to this city has been made because Omaha affords greater facilities for com munication with nil the lines in the territory above mentioned. Another change In the express business to this city was the orcccnt removal of Dudley nvans , superintendent of the division ot Wclls-Fargo's express Included in the terri tory of Dakota and the state of Nebraska. Ho has also opened his office in the United States National bank building , with four rooms , nnd keeps busy n force of four clerks. Still another has been the opening up of the ofllco of the superintendent of the sta tionery department which has up to the present - sent time been located In San Francisco. William M. Ashton , formerly clerk to the superintendent , has been appointed to the charge of the olllce. W. P. Brcnmin , late chief clerk of the superintendent In that section of the Wells- Fargo Express company lit , Houston , Tex. , has accep cd the position df cashier of the same company at this place. For live years Mr. Brcnnan acted us thu agent of- the com pany before his transfer to Houston. His office in this city Is a promotion and riicogni- tion of his services for the company which have extended over the past fifteen years. Ho succeeds W. J. Chapman , who has been promoted to the agency of the company at Fort Worth , Tex. It is also understood that a move Is on foot to securu for this place the ofllee of the sup erintendent of the Iowa division ol the American Express company. This division comprises the northern part of Iowa nnd some of Dakota. The office is at present in Des Moincs , and the superin tendent Is L. A. Garner , formerly local agent in this city. The odlce is on no through line except the Chicago & Rock Island road , and that line in the express business Is controlled by the United States. If this move should bo mudo It would give to Omaha a distinctive title ns nn express center , as it * would ther have the general offices of the Pacific , thosi of the superintendent of the eastern nnd Nebraska braska divisions of the Wells Fargo and thi division headquarters of the American com panics. _ A PENITKNTI/VIIY CANDIDATE. A Former Well-Known Citizen ol Oinului Guilty of Forgery. Frank E. Romankoff , formerly of this city nnd well known , is a self-confessed forger RomnnkotT formerly ran a dairy at Thirty third and Scward streets , but about eightcci months ago removed to Neligh , Neb. , ani engaged in the raising of stock. Prior to hi1 removal , Mr. Theodore Williams purchased thirty acres of land in Benson from Lottie T Wallace. Upon this property there wai n mortgage of $1,5'C to secure thrco notes o KiOO , $500 and W35 respectively , signed bj Lottie T. Wnlhicu and in favor of Romankoff from whom Mrs. Wallace purchased tin property. Mr. Williams assumed the indcbt edncss and paid tlio notes before they wen due. A few Uavs ago Mrs/Wallace and hoi husband , Robert B. Wallace , were noli fled that three notes signed by them aggregating $ lfl35l wcro duo at Rochi & Anderson's bank at Noligh They went to the bank and discovered tha' ' the notes were forgeries and were made oil in favor of Romankoff. Mr. William McCnguc who is inteicstcd in the matter , went t < Neligh and accused RomankofT of the cnmo Ho broke down and finally made n full con fession. Mr. McCague did not prosecute , a : the Bunk of Oakland , Neb. , bus dlsrountci some more forged paper and will make everj effort to land Romankoff in the pcniten tiury. tiury.A A hurpi'iho , wliqn smoking "Soidcn- berg Fijfiiro" for fie you will iiiul it u , lOi cigar.

While tnllt- n g with a ) UslncFs man ho other day , snoko of u HV n k r tip tj tnerchnntnnil' r o in n r k o cN that som people might ojolco , ns misery loves company. "I think thiit'8amtstnko"ho replied ; 'wo merely draw hope from the cir cumstances that our own case is not vovbo than o thorn , nnd that the worst mve coino out all right. There is nothing In life more strengthening than hut kind of hope ; nothing more exquis- te than to suddenly know nnd feel that vo are promptly and permanently over i great trouble. " "Do you mean reverses In business or ihyslcnl buffering ? " "Both. Of the latter wo have no ade quate conception. Wo worry over a oothacho and forget that half a lifetime s often tortured in the snmo way. " "Yes , and Wo are generally relieved vhon and where wo loiibt expect it. " "And then become remorseful that wo ladn't sense enough to see the right course before. I want to tell you a story of real life ; no fiction to varnish itt but a recital KO straight and true it can t bo lenied. One day a man came into my ollk'o and in coun-eof conversation said : My bibtor-ln-lnw , who liven in Mllroy , Pa. , was , in the spring of 1801 , a hale , vigorous woman in the prime of life , ind was about to visit s > omo friends when she was thrown from the wagon vnd her spine injured. ' Now mark how , ho man went on : 'From that time till the spring of 188IJ , nineteen long years , the was a helpless cripple , unable to walk. ' That is , as ho explained it , she lay partially paraly/ed. Well , to verify what you said about being relieved when we least expect it , the narrator told the further circumstance. They had tried everything to relieve her without ctTect , till one day her daughter having read about great remedy bought two bottles. VVlmt must have been the ex quisite plOasuro of the moment when , as the man said , before the second bottle tle was exhausted. 'My Mster-in-law was able to walk about and has been com pletely cured ? " ' "Do you think the story straight ? " "Certainly , It was verified in this way : It is in my line of duty to make inquiries , and no caw is ever allowed to puss uncorroborated , so I placed the statement in the hands of the postmas ter at that place with a request to veri fy it as far as possible. " "Did he verify it ? " "Did he ? Well , the Ci e was so re markable that he sent a full statement to the New York World , where it was published over His siirnaturo. It is the celebrated case of Mrs. John Gonmill Milroy. Milllin county , Pa. , and Mr. M. Thompson was the postmaster , " "Hy the way , . \ou have not yet said what brought about this wonderful change. " "Haven't T ? You might easily guess. No other remedy in the \\orld would perform such a magical cure but St. .WobsOH ; nnfl that was what did it. So that now you see , when we diicuia misery as company , I like to tullf about such cases , for there are a largo number on file , fully verified and equally true and remarkable.
