WILL DAKOTA BE DIVIDED ,
Passage of the Bill Admitting the
Southern Portion.
A STUBBORN PARTISAN FIGHT.
Tlio Hoiirbons Mnlntnln Their Opposi
tion to tlio Ijnst Vest Cornered
By Allison The Imllnti
Appropriation Bill.
Scnntc.
WASHINGTON' , April 19. At the conclusion
Of the morning session the senate took up
the Dakota bill and Mr. Plumb took the floor
in Its support.
Mr. Hoar offered a resolution , which was
referred to the committee on foreign rela
tions , providing that the official reporter
shall bo admitted to report the debates and
proceedings of"tho senate when the fisheries
treaties shall bo under consideration , the re
port , or'such part of It as may not require
socrccy , to bo published if the senate shall
no order ,
Tlio senate then resumed the consideration
of the bill for the admission of the stnto of
South Dakota and was addressed by Mr.
Plumb in support of the bill. Ho contrasted
the small votes In the southern states with
. the vote of Dakota and said very few of them
had cast as many votes at any election
within the last flvo years as the
territory of Dakota had in 1880. If it was
was the quality of thu people of Dakota ,
that the .senator from Missouri ( Vest ) ob
jected tothcn ho ( Plumb ) declared they were
a fair representative of the Anglo-Saxon
character on this continent. Ho had yet to
learn that any man in Dakota had ever boon
deprived by direction or indirection of his
right to vote.
Coming down to to the state of Alabama ho
contrasted the tables of taxation in that
state to show that the assessed value of guns
pistols , aud dirks were four times greater of
that of farming tools nnd agricultural imple
ments , mid yet ho said Mr. Vest did not ob
ject torn representation of Alabama in the
senate or house , but was willing to meet on
a plan of equality. For himself ho did not
care as to the politics of any territories ni > -
plying for admission. Ho would veto for the
admission of Montana or Washing
ton democratic though they were be-
caxwo iho believed tlio power and
perpetuity of the rejxibllc deluded upon-tho
equal association of nil the people ef the
United States subdivided within Iho limits of
the slate , each ouo taking care of its own
local concerns , and. each contributing of its
advice , Its council , its wealth nnd power to
the progress of the United States In their
national capacity.
Mr. Allison addressed the senate lu sup
port of the bill. Ho agreed with Senator
Vest that the question was u political ouo.
The attiludo of the democratic party in both
houses on this subject wus an attitude of
non-action. Ho believed South Dakota
should now be admitted and that North Da
kota should also bo admitted ns a state. He
should bo glad to vote this session for the ad
mission of North Dakota.
In response to the questions from Air.
Allison as to whether the democratic party ,
fts a political organization , would vote to-day
for the admission of Dakota as n whole Air.
Vest said that ho did not think that there
were any of his colleagues who would not ,
although they had not held any caucus. Mr.
Allison said the action of the democratic
party ns represented on Iho committee on
territories in both house and senate , showed
its policy on this subject. The idea was to
tamper with the question untU the presiden
tial election of 1883 shall have passed away
and if the political exigencies of the futura
required it , the democratic party would con
tinue to play the same game. If the demo
cratic parly4wantcd the state of Dakota , un
divided , why did it not whenever It had
power , present n bill for that purpose ? Ho
himself would hcsltalo long before ho would
bo willing to admit Dakota as a single state
but ho would Join with senators for the ad
mission of Montana.
Mr. Butler congratulated the senate that
the discussion had got buuk to the real issue
and thanked Mr. Allison for having discussed
the question from the standpoint of n states
man. Ho protested against the recent
charges aud aspersions against the southern
states and said if this were an occasion to go
into ancient history ho could rcsurcct in the
southern states the shameful parodies on
government tlat ) had once been set up Ihcro
by senators now denouncing these states.
The debate then reverted oncoinoro to the
question of outrages nnd intimidations in the
south. Messrs. Call , Berry , HoarEdmunds ,
Sherman nnd Vest participated in tlio dis
cussion , which was nt times quito exciting.
The semite linally came to a vote on Iho sub
stitute for the Dakota bill which was de
feated yeas 23 , nays 20 , and the bill itself
was passed veas 20 , nays 23 by a strict
party vote. Adjourned.
House.
WASHINGTON , April 19. The house this
morning postponed the further consideration
of the tariff bill until Tuesday next and then
took up for consideration thu Indian appro
priation bill.
The amendment was adopted appropriating
r20,000 for the education of Indian pupils in
Alaska.
An amendment woo also adopted striking
out the provision for an inspector of Indian
Bchools nnd providing for u superintendent of
Indian schools.
Mr. Bayne of Pennsylvania , offered an
amendment providing that Indian day und
training schools where church organizations
ere assisting in the educational work the
Christian biblu may bo taught la the native
langdago'of the Indians if , In the opinion of
thaperbons in charge of the schools , ills
deemed conducive to the moral welfare of the
pupils. Adopted.
"
Tno comni.tfco" then rose.
, Mr. Hundall of Pennsylvania moved to
strike out the clause appropriating $2,858,000
for tht > payment of the Choctuw judgment.

Kntiflns City's Union Depot Unable to
Cnro For Applicants.
KANSAS CITT , Mo. , April 19. [ Special Tel
egram iA the Bp.n.J The union depot direc
tors held n lmortant | ) meeting In the Fort
Scott ft Gulf building this .morning. The
full board was present. , The object was to
discuss means for procnrlng additional track
room to accommodate some of the roads
which are now clamoring for depot facilities.
The petitions of the Chicago , Mtlxvnukco &
St. Paul , the Wymidotto & Northwestern ,
the Chicago , Santa F6 tt California , the Chi-
"ftiRO , Kansas & Nebraska nnd the Kansas
City Southern railways for admission to the
union depot word taken up. The president
of the Union Depot company , General Nettle-
ton , stated ho had heard nothing from tlio
Hannibal bfllclals , midthe project of secur
ing additional track room from , that company
was still In statu quo. The Hannibal ofllciala
last January had signified their willingness
to Inert the union depot directors and talk
over the matter , but the meeting had never
bean held. '
So far as present appearances wcro con
cerned no additional track room was obtain
able. The subject of securing ground and
building another depot to bo run lu conncc-
t.on with the union dejKit was discussed but
no action was taken. It was the general sen
timent of the company that It would bo Im
possible for them to abandon their present
quarters , as In that case the property , which
was condemned for depot purpo cs , would
revert to the original heirs. As a makeshift
it was decided to rearrange the tracks on the
present ilcpoir grounds in such n manner ate
to make two moro tracks. These extra
tracks will bo given to Iho Chicago , Kansas
& Ncbraskn road ( Hock Island ) and the
Santn Fo'.s Chicago extension.
"Wo have decided , " said General Ncttlo-
ton , "to rearrange the tracks so as to accom
modate the roads already In the depot. I
mean the Hock Island , which wants track
room for Its Kansas roads , and the Santa Fo ,
which needs a place for its Chicago exten
sion. "
"You will not lot the St. Paul road como in J"
"Wo can give accommodations to no now
roads. "
In this dilemma the Chicago , Milwaukee &
St. Paul road will probably depend on the
south ond.dcpot for terminal facilities. Tlio
depot now designed by this company to be
erected nt Twent5'-llrst street and Grand ave
nue will bo ample to accommodate passenger
traffic. If they continue to transfer passen
gers free to ho union depot it is not thought
the company will suffer much by not getting
terminal facilities there.

Preacher-Tragedian Milu's AVil'e Sues
Hint For Divorce.
CHICAGO , April 19. [ Special Telegram to
the BEE. ] A few years ago Mrs. George C.
Milu was the wife of ouo of the most promi
nent nnd prosperous Unitarian clergymen in
Chicago. Mr. Miln succeeded Uobcrt Collier
as pastor of Unity church when that divine
wus called to Brooklyn. Unity church is
situated on Dearborn avenue in ono of the
most fashionable neighborhoods in town.
Mr. Miln had a largo congregation , a salary
of § 7,000 per year , and a parsonage , but ho
left them all for the stage. There was the
greatest excitement in Unitarian circles , and
in fact in all circles hero , when ho announced
this dctcrinim tion. When ho made his lirst
appearance as Hamlet , and all during the
first week of his first engagement , the
theater where ho played was packed to the
doors , but curiosity was soon satisfied and
Milu almost forgotten and Mrs. Miln entirely
so. To-day , however , she appeared before
Judge Jauiicson and asked for a divorce from
her husband charging him with adultery
with Louise M , Lalliom , a member of his
company. Mrs. Miln testified that she was
married In New Jersey in 1872. She and her
husband came to Chicago seven years ago
and lived together until last October. They
have three children. While Mrs. Miln was
giving her testimony tears came to her eyes.
Judgn Jamieson asked , "Have you over had
any conversation with Mr. Miln in relation to
the alleged acts of inlidelityl"
"Yes , repeatedly. "
"Well , did you not have a particular con
versation with him in September } " asked the
lawyer.
"I did. I had accused him repeatedly of
infidelity , and ho always denied it. On this
occasion I mentioned a particular lady's
name und ho said she was innocent. But I
persisted and ho finally said he had not been
entirely faithful. "
"Do you desire the custody of your chil
dren ! "
"I do. "
"Do you deem Mr. Miln a fit person to
have control of the children ! " asked the
court.
"Well , replied Mrs. Miln , "his profession
carries him uwaycoustnntly , and ho is not
capable of caring for them. "
"What sum is ho able to contribute for
their support ? "
"Forty dollars a month at least. "
"Has he any property ! "
"No , sir. "
"Docs ho have to depend upon his earnings
in his profession ! "
"Yes , sir. "
"Have you any knowledge of what his
earnings are ! "
"No , your honor. "
The case wus taken under advisement.

MINNEAPOLIS , April 19. [ Special Tele
gram to the Bir.j : Tlio Minneapolis ball
players were unable to withstand the subtle
influence of O'Connoll's voice to-day , and for
eight Innings it looked as though Omaha
would bo revenged for the shut out of yester
day. But In the ninth Inning n lucky bunchIng -
Ing of three hits , of which one was for two
bases , and a wild pitch by Healoy , gave them
thrco runs. Minneapolis put young Khcse ,
of the stnto university , In the box ; for the
first live innings , and had ho received decent
support he would have made a line showing.
Omaha made one run In the second inning
on a base on balls , the ruiinci' took second
end on a wild pitch and came
homo on Dorau's single. "Sea if you
can knock n leg off Kobluson over hero,1
yelled O'Connell from the third base coach
line to Burns , who was first atbut in the
fourth inning. Burns tried hard , but the
best he could do was toscndnncasygrQiindor
to bihi , which Robinson fumbled , nnd the
runner reached first. Burns Immediately
stole second , whllo Sowders waited nnd was
rewarded by getting first on balls. Annls
repeated Burns' experiment In the
direction of Hoblnson , nnd the latter -
tor gracefully fumbled the ball again.
O'Connoll brushed an icicle off his eyebrow
and looked hard at Hhcso as ho took his pos
ition at bat. Ho got ono where ho wanted
It , sending Burns and Sawders across the
plate , and himself and Annls crossed it
shortly afterwards on an out and another
error by Hobinson. Burns scored twlco
inoro for Omaha , once in the fourth inning
and once in the sixth , getting first base each
time on a hit.
Parsons , Minneapolis' gilt-edged twlrler ,

his wildness , did good work. Tlio score :

When I last saw Kearney about ten years
ago she had a few wooden houses and about
two thousand people. To-day she has 10,000 ,
people , a water power equal to Minneapolis ,
great brick and stone blocks , and thousands
of beautifully decorated homes. The l ) . &

the Missouri Pacific has como up from Kan

in Kearney. The starving Israelites In Kan

"Why , you can't have a water power hereon
on the flat Plntto river , " 1 said.
"But the Platte runs up on the hill there , "
said Mr. A , pointing to a plateau seventy feet
high overlooking the town.
And sure enough when wo got up thcro
wo saw the great Platte hod climbed up the
hill through nn eighteen-mile canal and was
pouring a Niagara of water down seventy
feel a water power as terrible as at Law-
rente on the Merrlmac. Hero was moro
wealth than n field of natural gas. Gas
makes power , but hero was power itself.
This power from turbine wheels at $20 ] > er
horse power per year. The manufactories
coming to Kearney are flouring mills ,
pressed brick manufacturers , paper mills ,
etc. Thcro is much flax raised in this part of
the country and herctoforo the seed only has
been saved.

Of course the good crops In the Platte val

once scleclcd to build the capital at Kearney
Instead of Lincoln , but It was lost by thrco
votes. The state reform school now occu
pies that beautiful site , while spread out before -

The material to build this pity of 10,000

THE STItlKC OX TUB Q.
The strike ou the B. & M. is considered
over here. The B. & M. trains ore arriving
mid departing regularly. The old brother
hood engineers along the road arc quiet ana
serious. Many of them lose homos partly
paid for which they must give up. The
great hardships are yet to como. The old
firemen begin to complain that they were
made a catspaw of by the engineers.
"Why. " said a handsome fireman to-day ,
"I would have had an cngino in a month nnd
now 1 must servo for years again to get the
same place. " '
"Yes , " said another fireman , "If wo had
been smart we would have stood by the
road , which would have rewarded us by giv
ing us engines. Now A Heading fireman bos
taken our places. The old engineers ore now
looking for places for themselves , leaving us
out In the cold. They've sidetracked us and

ST. JOSEPH , Mo. , Ap il' 19. [ Special Tele
gram to the BEB.j-rfrho St. Joseph bankers
and Jobbers arc at'iprcsent nt loggerheads
over the late resolutions adopted by the
clearing house association to the effect that
exchange would bo- charged on all country
chocks which pass through the associated
banks. A protest long and loud has been
made by the country merchants because
their checks are discounted , and in several
towns they have threatened to withdraw
their patronage. The jobbers have waited
upon the bankers for the purpose of inducing
them to rescind Iheir action , but they posi
tively refuse , claiming that exchange is
charged in every city in the union on coun
try banks provided the bank is not a corre
spondent , and that if the merchants do not
want their customers to lose the cxchaugo
they should pay it themselves , as is done m
other cities. Mr. J. T. Johnson , cashier of
the Commercial bank , said to-day that the
St. .loseuh jobbers had absolute control of
the banks in the city so bug that they were
unwilling to make any concessions at all ,
but that eventually they would bo brought to
time.

DAYTOX , O. , April 10. [ Special Telegram
to the linn. ] The following In the full text
of the platform of the republican party of
Ohio In convention assembled :
lleaftlrmtng the platform of 1887 , adopted
at Toledo , It presents the following addi
tional declarations :
"A free and untratnmclod suffrage lies at
the foundation of the republic and Its re
storation by every constitutional means In
the slates when } It has been overthrown or
lmpalrod , < aud its maintenance everywhere ,
is our settled and determined imrposo. Wo
denounce the democrat to party for its nullifi
cation of the war amendment ? to the consti
tution , whereby the republicans of the south
arc practically denied n voice In the govern
ment of the nation , and the power of the
democrats of that " "ctlon Is unlawfully
augmented. We clmrgo that the democratic
party Is now In the Injoymont of power con
fessedly procured by the unlawful suppres
sion of the franchise In the southern states.
Wo nfllrm that in accepting of the power
thus secured , the apparent purpose of
the party to continue the methods mentioned
and its shameless defense of the criminals
who In the states of Maine , Illinois , Indiana
and Ohio have sought to stifllo the popular
will by frauds and forgeries , Justify us in
charging Unit It has practically become , In a
national sense , an organized conspiracy
against free and fair elections. In view of
these facts , anil believing that to deprive the
legally qualified voter of his franchise or to
impair public conlldenco in the fairness of
the count , is to weaken and ; ultimately destroy -
stroy free institutions , wo call upon the
patriotic citizens of Ohio to rebuke the party
responsible for these crimes against suffrage ,
and we demand of congress Unit in the exer
cise of its constitutional authority it emict
such laws as will insure freedom and fair
ness in the election of representatives to
congress.
"Wo favor such economic legislation as will
protect all American industries that can bo
profitably pursued by American citizens. Wo
insist that our producers arc entitled to the
control of their own markets to the extent of
their.abiUty to supply thorn. Wo denounce
all efforts to open those markets to competi
tion with the cheap labor and abundant capi
tat of foreign nations , as hostile to the Inter
ests of labor and destructive to national and
individual prosperity. Wo regard the last
annual message of the president and the
recent action of the majority of the ways
and means committee as a direct and open
assault upon these Institutions which will , if
unresisted , result in introducing a policy of
free trade'that in the near future will para
lyze or destroy our own industries , reduce
the compensation for labor and impoverish
the nation ,
"It is the duty of congress to pass , and of
the president to approve , a wise , Just and
comprehensive pension bill , giving relief to
disabled veteran soldiers and subsistence to
the helpless widows and orphans ofjdeceased
soldiers without regard to the time when
disability was incurred or the cause of death.
"Tho people of Ohio unqualifiedly condemn
the refusal of the democratic majority of the
house of representatives to permit the pas
sage of the direct , tax refunding bill passed
by the republican senate , which was a propo
sition to repay to the loyal states , without in
terest , the money paid by them at the begin
ning of the war to aid in suppressing the re
bellion , and to cancel the unpaid balance ,
principal and. interest , duo from the rebel
states upon said taxes ; and wo denounce as
treacherous and cowardly the surrender of
the northern democrats in congress to the
small minority of the ex-confederates and
their allies , and the abandonment of the bill ,
which , if passed , would have contributed
nearly a million and a iialf of dollars to the
relief of the tax payers of Ohio.
"Wo commend and indorse the administra
tion of Governor Foraker as wise , prudent ,
patriotic and economical. -
"Wo indorse the legislation of the present
general assembly , and approve its action in
redeeming the promises inado hi the repub
lican platform of 1SS7.
"Tho republicans of Ohio recognize the
merits , services and abilities of the states
men who have been mentioned for the repub
lican nomination for the presidency , and ,
loyal to any one who may bo selected , pre
sent John Sherman to the country as emi
nently qualified and fitted for the duties of
that exalted office , and the delegates to the
republican national convention this day se
lected are directed to use. nil honorable
means to secure his nomination us president
of the United States. "
Daniel .1. Kynn was nominated for secre
tary of state and Judge J. P. Bradbury for
supreme court judge.
The four delegates nt largo selected are
Governor Foraker , Charles Foster , William
McKinley and Hen liuttcrworth. The alter
nates nt large are Kobert Hnrlau and C. L.

PoiiTLAXii , Me. , April 19. A strange man
and woman were seen walking on St. Joseph
street to-day , and a few moments later two
pistol shots weio heard. The couple were
found lying ou the sidewalk , both apparently
dead , but while being removed the nnin re
vived mid gave the name of Edward Chase ,
of New York. ' He suid the woman was Mrs.
Nellie Stevens , of Gardiner , Mo. In Chases
pocket was found a dairy with this entry :
"Head tills : She is the daughter of , Hon. .1.
II. LUdll , of Gardiner. " It is supposed the
couple met by appointment , though the cause
of the shooting is a mystery. Chase is not

"Tho Gypsy Ilnron" Presented nt the
Grand Iinst Night.
Had It not been for the presentation of the
"Gypsy Haron" in this city some time ago
and hi a manner to give exceeding satisfac
tion , tlio audience which witnessed the pro
duction of the "VIco Admiral" on last Wed
nesday might bo excused If it felt disposed to
question the ability bf the company to suc
cessfully interpret Strauss' ' celebrated opera.
There was little comparison to be made be
tween the production of both pieces. Last
night solos , duos , trios , choruses , everything
was admirably executed. There was life ,
vigor , animation and action in the lost men
tioned feature , which were time and nimlii
applauded. The distribution of characters
was equitable and thcro was but a single in
stance in which but an indifferent performer
essayed n speaking role. Miss Uoenhoff
seemed to have undergone a complete trans
formation , appearing ns Czlpa , the Gypsy ,
rising to destination in both acting and sing
ing. Miss Lydla O'Neill as usual displayed
her strong and musical voice and while ac
quitting herself excellently In the solo parts ,
aided crcatly in the cliorun lends. Miss
Blanch ] , pretty and modest , had a role In
keeping with rahge and swectncss'of her ad *
mlrablo volco and secured hi lice solos re
pented calls. Mr. Kruger miulo a good deal
of fun. The drill of the ballot was the fluent
over given In this city.

an occupant who made n guy of Himself. It

The Welsh singers gave another charming

and was the recipient of much applause.

A Colored Murderer Will Get Another
Clmnco For Ills Life.
Dr.xvnn , April 19. [ Special Telegram to
the Bin. ] The supreme court this morning
reversed the verdict of guilty against John
B. Kearney of Aspen , who was convicted of
killing Joseph J. Burt in October last. The
testimony in the cnso was that these
men were engaged In n game of cards nt a
saloon In Aspen on the date of the killing.
Kearney won $10 which Burt had bet but re
fused to pay. Ho claimed that as ho had
simply given his word the bet would not
go , as no money had been put up , except the
MO lu cash which Kearney hud laid down.
Both men were intoxicated. The dispute
cnued in a quarrel In which Kearney pulled
out his revolver and shot Burt as ho stood
by the by the bar. The bullet entered Burt's
head and split ou the skull , one half of the
bullet lodging in the back part of the brain
and the other passing straight through the
skull and embedding itself In the ceiling of
saloon. The verdict was reversed on the
ground of a technicality.

CHICAGO , April 10. [ Special Telegram
to the BnR.l May wheat opened this mom *
Ing at SOJCc , which was tjfo under yesterday' *
closing price , sold up to SO c , then sold down
to TD c , and within an hour had advanced to
bOi c , and before the session closed to SlJ c.
Nobody could complain of Inaction in such n
market. Hutchlnson was a tremendous
seller of wheat nt the start , and some of the
brokers of the big bears wcro vociferously
hammering the market. The local longs
could hardly have been more- unanimous In
tholr rush to sell if they liaU hold a caucus
over night nnd decided that the late bull
movement was n delusion and n snare and
that the best thing to do wa.s to let go. A
drop to 80e for May was easily brought
about In this way , and nt that point commis
sion men had n host of stop orders aud hur
ried to execute them. The price fell to 79J < c
like n shot with very largo trading nnd much
excitement , prices being sometimes } { c apart *
In different parts of the pit at the same time.
Large blocks of wheat wcro thrown out and
wore absorbed , and when that was done
the reaction was almost as "sud
den ns the decline had been. It
was noticed that the heaviest buyers
wcro some men who wcro hammering early
ana it did not take the crowd long to realize
that the break had been manufactured to
bring out long wheat , which would cnablo
raiders to buy at a low price. It looked that
way and then there was a revulsion of senti
ment , the local crowd covering their shorts
rapidly and putting the price with but
small halls , to between 80 > @SO < o for May.
The market hung for BOUIO time without
much trading , when suddenly another up
ward movement started which carried the
price to bljfc with scantoly any reaction nnd
and 81J/C was the price nt the 1 o'clock close.
The crop reports received were quite as bad
as any previous ones , und in addition there )
wcro reports to-day of ravages of chinch
bugs In Kansas and of great areas of winter
wheat being plowed up in consequence. Ko-
ports of cold weather and snow storms in
the northeast also made a bud outlook for
spring wheat seeding.
Tlio corn market was steady early on less
receipts than wcro expected , but later seemed
to bo influenced by the course of the wheat
market , except that fluctuations were much
narrower. The volume of business , com
pared with some recent days , was
small. The same buyers who have
been taking corn for weeks past were
on the some side to-day , and there was not
much animation to the market. There was
u sharp decline in New York , followed by n
partial recovery , and cables were unfavora
ble on corn. Large estimates for to-morrow
caused a decline late in the session , but this
was all recovered before the close , when
wheat showed such extraordinary strength.
May corn opened nt 55 } c , sold up to 05c ,
down to 5TiJ.Cc , then up to 50c , back t6 C5 o
and up to 5iio again , which was the price at
the 1 o'clock close. Juno corn opened at
51 } c and sold from 51J4C to 55J c , closing at
1 o'clock at the last named price.
The speculative oats market was extremely
dull durinp all the early part of the session ,
but later showed some life aud advanced in
sympatny with the other grain markets.
May oats opened at 32e , sold from 31J c to
32 ; ' c , closing at 1 o'clock at 32 ? < c. Juno
oats opened at Sljfc , and sold up to and
closed at 32e. July oatu sold from 81J/C to

The provision trade claimed und received
more than ordinary attention. In the cash
product there was something of a fallimrolT
in the movement , but simulation was active
throughout the day. in the trading , how
ever , lard overshadowed in interest pork and
short ribs , though the latter were bought
and sold freely. Lard was particularly ac
tive , under a good short demand and con.
tlnucd buying by foreign houses , aud for thS
