To-dny's. ' session of the house of rcpro-

a call of the house Into in the afternoon ,
when Uid doors were locked and the ser-
jonnt-ut-nrms w.is sent over tlio city to bring
n the absent members. Flnnlly the IIOUBC
took a recess until half post 11 o'clock to-
norrow morning' when the snmo programme
s to bo resumed. This Is ono of the clearest
CASes of fllllbustcrlng tlmt hits taken place in
congress for many years. Each morning
when the housu meets a motion Is pending
'or adjournment , upon which the nycs and
nays uro called. It lakes about forty-flvo
minutes to niako n call of the house and an
nounce the pairs , Thu tactics pf the Hill-
busters is to compound motions for adjourn
ment. For instance , ono of them moves to
adjourn to a certain hour , go'ncrnlly S
o'clock. Another ono will move to amend
jy making the hour half past 4 ,
Again another motion is inado by a thiril
fllllbusturcr to amend the amendment to
nako the adjournment 4 o'clocic. A fourth
lllibustcrcr moves to luy the motions on the
table , and upon all of thesa motions the ayes
and noes are demanded , and it takes about
-hreo and a half hours to dispose of the
Jatch. When those aroouUoftho way the
action is repeated , and so three days have
jcen frittered n\vay. Few members have
, ried to make any remarks , except in the
way of Jibes , At times the sccuo becomes
noisy , as members hurl remarks from one

Monday the deadlock will break. The
minority will yield to n vote on the malt

to-day to cease fllllbustcrlng , and it is said
that the chief executive has either seen 01

of the bill could not succeed , because thcj

demand a roll call. The edict of the presl

unravel the tangle. Such friends of the bill
as Generals Grover of Ohio , Henderson ol

to pass the bill. Ho | ms gone to nearly a' '
the members of the states through which th

that they have made their support of the bil

the amendment was accepted ho believe
there would bo fillibustcring ugainst the pai

Almost n Murder ,
Four shots fired Jn quick succession , n
scream of murder , followed by n volley ol
foul curses brought to' their doors the people
living near Rushford it Gore's brickyard ,
South Thirteenth street , about 9 o'clock last
evening. The screams continuing th6 neigh
bors rushed out to Itnd Jim Kerns , n brick ,
moulder , lying on the ground apparently dy
ing from tqrrlblo wounds , while the Heeling
figure of his assailant'could bo faintly dis
cerned disappearing In the darkness. The )
prostrnto man was picked up and carrled'to a
house near by where it was discovered that
ho hud boon horribly butchered , In his
right check was n great bullet
hole , from which the blood was gush
ing in streams , his right nostril had
been split from top to bottom and another
bull had wounded him In the neck , One
bullet had passed through Ills right hand
and three through his loft , ono pf them com
pletely shattering his little finger. His head
was a sickening network of gashes whore ho
had been beaten with the butt cud of a re
volver.
Despite all thcso wounds Kerns was con
scious and to the horror of his neighbors
told them that the man making this mur
derous assault upon him was none other
than his own son-in-law , Hilly Woods , and
the only thing between them was a trifling
domestic diniculty. Woods is n man of about
thlrt.v. Ho Is also n brick moulder and
married Korns' daughter about seven years
ago. The greater part of that time the
Woods uud Kerns lived together in ono cot
tage and Hilly was pronounced by Kerns to
be a model son-in-law. They still-occupy ono
cottngo between them , about three blocks
below Ylntoii on South Thirteenth street ,
and it was only about thirty rods north ol
this domicile that the bloody affair of last
night occurred.
Kerns says that no trouble over came be
tween thorn until about three or four days
ago , whou ho cunio homo and found his
grandchild wearing a pair of shoes that ho
thought wore not lit to wear. Accordingly
ho throw them in the steve and bought a new
pair to suit his fancy better. Woods wag
highly Indignant over this and thought that
Kerns was meddling with his family affairs.
Thursday night matters came to u crisis and
they engaged in n list fight. Woods then
BWOI-O vengeance upon his father-in-law.
Last evening Woods armed himself with n
revolver and followed Kerns home. When
ho was about ton rods away from Rushford
& Gore's brick yard ho assaulted his fathcr-
in-law and aUompted. > to murder him. When
the llrst shot was .jji-cd Kerns throw hia
hands up to his headland every one of
the subsequent balls Opassed through his
hands. After the fourth shot was fired
Kerns turned and grnj > nled with his assail
ant. Hut his woumlj had weakened his
strength and the younger man downed him.
With the butt of his revolver Woods at
tempted to brain his father-in-law , the ham
mer literally chopping 10 scalp to pieces.
When Kerns was { pund by his neighbors ,
the patrol wagon wasjcalled and ho was
taken to the control pgljeo station to have his
wounds dressed by Dr. , Ralph , ttio city phy
sician. The hair had to bo cut from Kerns'
head and the pieces pf scalp were so loose
that It was only with. Uio greatest cure that
it could be done. Thai doctor said it was
the most mutilated hpael ho ever saw. The
complete scalp had to.bo bandaged. On ex
amining the wound in his cheek it was found
that the cheek bono had been broken and u
largo piece was taken out by the
doctor. Tlio split nostril was sewed
up. Fortunately nouo of the bullet wounds
had taken fatal effect. The thing that dis
tressed Kerns the most was the permanent
crippling of his hands , which will greatly in
terfere with his business of brickmoulding.
The ofllcers arrived on the scene of the
shooting a little too Into to cct on the trail ol
Woods , but a squad consisting of Officers
Mostyn , Dempsey , Ward , Godola , Mamell
and Hrady were detailed to work the matter
up. Up to n late hour this morning the
would-be murderer was still at large ,

Roland Reed , ono of the best of the modem
school of eccentrio comedians , appeared ul
Hoyd's ' opera house last evening in "The
Womnn-Hatcr. " The pieca is one of the
most humorous of the broad comedies pro
duccd In tills country in the last dccado am !
is fairly bubbling over with genuine , clcai
fun , and particularly frco from the horse
play which has been called comedy during
the few years which have elapsed since the
production of Mr. Hoyt's "Hunch of Keys. '
Mr , Reed is the legitimate heir of the piece
which was written for and played by the
late John T. Kaymond , and his impersonal ion
of the character of Samuel Untidy is fullj
equal to that of the lamented actor who flrsl
appeared in the character. Mr. Reed's tal
r > nt seem to have particularly fitted him foi
the Interpretation of the eccentric Hundy
whoso matrimonial aspirations ted him ink
the scries of blunders which furnish the
bulk of thn comedy element out of which tlu
plot is framed. Despite the fact that the at
tractions billed , both before and after his np
pearance , are , from n dramatic- point , verj
strong , a Jlno audience greeted him and gave
ample demonstrations of approval by tlu
mobt hearty applause and laughter. Tlu
company supporting Mr. Reed is thoroughl.i
effective and gives competent aid in producitit
the altogether upruarous piece.

Nothing of Importance transpired In con-
noctumJwlUi the strike ut South Omaha yesterday -
terday , The striking engineers mid switch
men have practically deserted tlio Hurllngton
yards and the jwllco are of the opinion that
no further trouble will ensue. Several nf the
Plnkerton dudes who have been iloiiiR
duty about the yards wcro removed to
Omalia to-day , presumably by orders from
General Manager Holdrego. Six full crews
arc now at work and traftlc Is In no way Im

Tlio authorities tire of the opinion that they
hnvo a slight clue to the parties tlmt bur
glarized a clothing and gents' furnishing
store in South Omaha Wednesday night , a
full account of which was In the Hin : Wednes
day. Yesterday Marshal McCracken
went to Hcllovue , n town about six miles out
of South Omaha , where It is thought the
perpetrators reside. An individual whoso
name is Adams , residing at that place ,
and who bears n questionable reputation ,
was seen In this place late Wednesday night
and was known to have sojourned several
days before the robbery , Thursday morning
Ills boarding place on Twenty-eighth street
was visited , but ho was found missing. The
proprietor of the boarding establishment
states that ho left without his knowledge.
From what can bo gleaned on the outside , it
Is thought that nt least three persons were
Implicated hi the work.
About live months ago S. K. Krelgham
rented his house mid farm to John Kennedy
and gave a Jcaao , for , two years with a privi
lege of five. IIo went to California ami was
absent for some time. Ho returned about
two wcalcs ago and has siuco been stopping
at a hotel in North Omaha. The farm in
question Is two miles out of South Omaha.
Last night Krelgham repaired to the house
at a late hour and demanded admission. Mr.
Ktmnody was in Omaha on business and his
wife was alone. However , she admitted
him , and no sooner hud ho gained
entrance to fho house than ho oidcrcd
1icr to pack up her collaterals and
decamp. While thus talking , Krclghum
who was extremely drunk , fell helpless on
the floor. Mrs. Kennedy , who Is afflicted
witli heart ailments , became frightened nud
also fell in a faint in a chair. She regained
consciousness , however , and managed to get
outside the building , where she remained
until the arrival of her husband , which was
fully two hours afterward. This inorulug a
warrant was Issued for Krelgliain's arrest
and he was bagged by Marshal McCrackon
about noontime. Ho admits that lie was
drunk and states that ho was not aware of
what ho was doing. Yesterday Mrs.
Kennedy was reported to bo In u precarious
condition from the shock she received. Two
physicians are In attendance. Kreighnui is
confined in the central police station and will
not bo given a hearing until to-morrow.
Everything was quiet in connection with
the bricklayers' strike here yesterday. The
strikers still remain out , and firm in their re
fusal to return to work until the demand for
more wages is satisfied. Nine non-union
men were at work on Lester Eros. ' block
on N street to-day , and a largo number at
other points throughout the city. However ,
there appears to bo a shortage in ttlie
supply of men , and it is gen
erally thought that by Monday
the strikers will bo given the advance do-
uiandod. Several of the contractors main
tain that If they are compelled to pay the
scale as regulated by the union , they will bo
put to an unwarranted loss , on account ol
their having figured very closely on their
estimates. A prominent contractor said to a
BEB reporter yesterday :
"Thero are many ways to look at this mat
ter. No class of men are inoro pained to un
dergo a strike than the contractors. Now
when wo llgure on the construction of a
bulldilig wo take the wages into considera
tion Just as well as wo do the material
needed. AVe govern ourselves according to
the standard of wajics Just the same as we
would in figuring on so many thousand feet
of lumber. Now when wo get this summar
ized wo know Just about what we con take n
contract at. Hero Is where the diniculty
comes in. The men that wo had figured at
such a rate make n demand for
more. It may seem but little , but when
you have , say for example , forty or fifty men
uud the work extends over a period of weeks
and months , you will find that actual losses
nro moro frequent tnnn actual realizations. II
thcso men arc to bo governed by such meth
ods , why do they not establish a standard KC
that wo can estimate accordingly ? This
would do away with all this needless laboi
difficulty. "
When questioned concerning the tenor oi
the above utterance , a member of the brick
layer's union gave vent to his opinion * as foi
lows :
"Tlmt is all well and good , but the state
incut concerning our standard of wages is
wrong. Wo have a standard and our ordoi
guvu it out plainly that at the period the strike
was instituted its members would make ado
mand for higher wages. This was given enl
months ago and was well known by all tin
contractors. In fnot , I am of thet opiiuoi
that the- major portion of them reijulatci
their contracts accordin ly. "
