that this gave rho to the rumor of a hotel. "

up nbove the gr.ulo on South Six
teenth street mljnuont to the clmmber of
commerce towers the residence of Mr. A. I ) .
Jones , who was Omaha's first postmaster.
Saturday , ns the noon hour hail ] ust Joined
its predecessors in the decade , the monotony
surrounding the Jones household was broken
by an informal caller , who e.imo ostensibly
on a business err.ind , but principally to prop
agate a swindling scheme of no little magni
tude. He represented himself to bo the son of
John Barker and an attache of the H.ink of
Commerce. Ho stated that ho w.is In quest
of n residence for rent , and concluded that ,
Inasmuch as Mr. Jones transacted moro or
less of that business , he would grant him
the patronage. Mr. Jones had some miittlv-
iiifr about the existence of a John Harkor.
At this Juncture , ho drifted upon another
subject and stated that ho had been In Cal
ifornia and "vhllo there purchased a drawing
on n Chicago house. Ho stated that he had
received notice from the agent in Omaha
that his ticket had drawn two historical
books , which mentioned the name of the
listener ( Jones ) as being one of the pioneer
settlers , and us a friend , ho concluded to do
nate one of them to him , at the same time
inviting him to take a walk to the ofllco
whore he kept his library.
The individuals in question started for the
"ofllco" and a short walk brought them to
the Houscl block , 11513 Dodge street , opposite
the Planters' hotel. At this point they
wended their way up the front steps to the
"olllcc. " Upon entering , the "agent of the
Chicago house" was ran fronted nnd
the latter seated himself by a
table and prepared for "business. "
Marker told him that he had been informed
that his ticket had drawn two historical
books , which he hud coum to obtain. The
"agent" said he had received the books , but
they wore damaged in transportation , and
wete not m condition to bo delivered , but
would soon have more and would deliver
them personally. Ho also informed Uarker
that bcsido the books ho had drawn ? 50 ,
which was turned over to him. He said that
there was some "change" over , but that In
such instances his company always gave
tickets instead of money. Ho informed
Darker that he would have to go to Chicago
to draw on the latter tickets , but Uarker
stated that ho w.is connected with the Hank
of Commerce , and could not spare the time.
The agent then said he could make a special
drawing hero , and Darker consented to it.
Ho then spread out a piece of parchment ,
upon which w.is a aeries of ligures printed in
inks of various shades. A number
of cards with numbers on them
were presented to Uarker , and when
the figures on the back were compounded the
aggregate was thirty-two. This , the agent
stated , entitled Marker to $10 and two moro
tickets , which ho gave him. Another draw
was made , but , in the meantime , Darker
stated that he would give one of the tickets
to his f i lend ( Jones ) , and let him try his
luck. They both drew out four cards each ,
which , when added up , aggregated twenty-
seven. This , the agent stated , entitled the
holders to Jfi.OOO each. The "money" was
counted , and the agent placed the package
of greenbacks in the hand of each patronbut
immediately took back the money , stating
that ho had forgotten part of his duty that
was to enquire into the character and stand
ing of the individuals to whom the money
was paid. Ho .stated that each of his patrons
must show that he had $ t,000 ! in hand in cash ,
and under that consideration only could ho
turn over the money. Darker stated that
he would see his wife and obtain
that amount , and Jones also stated that he
would meet the requirement.
The latter two then left the agent with the
understanding that they would soon return
with the collaterals. Mr. Jones instead went
to the Dank of Commerce and made known
the deal to Mr. Oeorgo Darker , of tnut insti
tution. He was instructed to notify the po
lice , and at once reported the matter at
headquarters. Officers Ormsby and Dcinp-
sey were ordered to work the case up. Jones ,
in some unaccountable manner became con
fused as to the number of the house , and
this resulted In the oflleers that were de
tailed to look up the case being turned off the
proper clue.
Mr. Jones describes "Darker" is being a
well-formed , good-looking individual , with a
beardless face , slight build , and below the
medium height of mankind. Ho was attired
in dark clothes. The individual who man
ipulated the cards is described as being
about five feet ten inches tall , of slight
build , dark moustache , and about thirty-llvo
years of ago. Ho also wore dark attiro.
Mr. Jones stated that they both had the ap
pearance of gentlemen and were "interesting
conversationalists. " Ho is of the opinion
that they are still domiciled within the city
limits. The officers ure still on the case , but
thus far have not been successful in running
down their game.
The house in which this unparalleled piece
of rascality was attempted is kept by Miss C.
A. Hamilton. She rents out u number of
rooms. One of these , the parlor on the first
floor , she rented to "Darker" on Friday last.
He paid her a dollar surety and said he would
not desire to occupy the room for two nights.
Saturday , however , he induced Mr. Jones to
accompany him to the apartment ns above de
scribed. The three remained closeted for about
thirty minutes. While theie , two other
strangers arrived , looking for rooms , and
Miss Hamilton knocked at the parlor door ,
with the Intention of showing thatapartmont
to them , thinking that Darker was not as eli
gible a tenant as she desired. The knock
was responded to by "Darker , " who quickly
, and excitedly through a narrow opening re
marked that ho must not bo disturbed for at
least twenty minutes. It was at that time
the sharpers were endeavoring to fleece Mr.
Jones. Shortly afterwards , the trio disap
peared. Miss Hamilton is mortified over the
occurrence. She has seen none of the par-
tics since.
Such , however , is not the experience of her
roomers. Notsatisficd with having attempted
to defraud Mr. Jones , the alleged "Darker , "
early Sunday morning , visited Miss Ham
ilton's , walked through the sleeping apart
ments of all the males , and then walked away
and has not since been seen. Ho was last
observed by Mr. A. O. Kobinow , the elocu
tionist , whoso apartment is at the rear of the
main hall. Mr. Kobinow awoke about 8
o'clock nnd found a stranger in his room.
"What arc you doing hero , sir ! " inquired
Kobinow.
"Isn't this Deb Smith's room ! " asked the
intruder , at the same time dropping a picco
of Mr. Kobinow's wearing apparel.
"No , sir , it isn't , was the reply. "
"Are there any sleepers up-stairsi" asUcil
the visitor.
Mr. Kobinow said there were , whereupon
the stranger cooly turned to po. but stopped
long enough to ask if Mr. Kobinow would
have a glass of beer. The latter declined on
the ground that ho was going to church.
"Oh , to with church 1" ejaculated the
sneak , as he coolly closed the door behind
him.
him.Tho
The next instant Kobinow heard the front
summer door slam. Ho rushed out in his
rube do nuil , but no trace of the prowler
could bo found. The household occamo
alarmed , and all the roomers made their ap
pearance , three of them , gentlemen mourning -
ing the loss of coins they hail had In their
pockets. The victims wore W. K. Dennett ,
a plumber , who lost J12 ; A. Miller , a
plumber , lost f.1 , and Mr. Hobinow lost t3.5.
When the last mentioned returned to his
room ho found his keys lying on the floor.
They had been taken off his chain , and If
the owner had not awakened at the time ho
did , it is probable his trunk nnd dressing case
would huvo been rilled by the scoundrel.

A number of these ilrms was seen and each
stated that it was heartily in accord with the
resolution and they intended to llvo up to It
Some of them , however , claimed it
would in no manner affect their business be
cause they are now doing a cash trade and
have been for many years. The Pbycko
Drothcrs company stated that thev had con
versed with a largo number of retail dealers
on the subject and that the majority of them
were s itistled with the proposed change.
There were some , however , who claimed the
new order would be oppressive , because they
had dilllcillty in collecting from their cus
tomers. These were told , however , that
there would bo no exception made Iti their
case. The linn further stated that some of
their patrons wore so pleased with the plan
that tnoy hoped it would bo followed by the
wholesale grocers. The retail grocers in
the heart of the city , who , as a rule , nave
been buying for cash , are satisfied with the
change , feeling that some of the smaller
men will have to retire and let their trade
como to them. Thcro are about three hun
dred and seventy-live grocers in the city , but
these are not the only ones who arc referred
to by the resolution. It strikes at bakers ,
restaurants , hotels , nnd In fact every class of
people who are purchasing from commission
men. The association of these men has the
following oftlcois : J. Williams , president ;
George Schroeder , vice president and Julius
Pcycke , secretary.
ININKIIS' : GRIEVANCES.
They Will Call oil Superintendent
DIckctiHoii to KedroHq Them.
Ttie grievance committee of the Union Pa
cific locomotive engineers waited upon Gen
eral Superintendent Uickenson yesterday.
Up to October 1 the engines employed in
the bridge service \vero classed as road en
gines and wore worked ten hours a day , the
engineers and firemen being pulihro.ul wages ,
*
or&'i.tsi and $ i.2. " > per day , * espootively. On
that diitc , however , the bridge service was
abolished and the engineers transferred to
the yard and placed in charge of the yard
master. This necessitates their doing switchIng -
Ing and other work when called upon1 , and
working eleven hours per day ; instead of ten ,
and yet , as they are now classed as nwitchini ;
engines , the pay of the engineer is. reduced
33 cents and that of the , fireman 35 cents per
day. In the meantime , tlte conductors and
brakemen get paid "extra for the extra time
they uro employed , nnd „ the churigo leaves
the engineers and firemen to do extra work for
less poy , while the rest r.f the crew
get an advahen for the same thing. The en
gineers claim that one of the rules laid down
by President Adams is that no employe shall
have his pay reduced , while retaining his
situation , but that , if ho leaves it , a cheaper
man may bo employed to do the same work ,
until he becomes accustomed to it , nnd this
rule they claim is being violated. No change
has been made in the work or pay of the en
gineers on the Iowa side of the river , nnd
those employed hero think they arc entitled
to the same privileges.

OUR NEW ADDITION I
Is being rapidly pushed to completion nnd we hope to open the same by the 15th hist.
The changes and improvements which we are also making in the old store extend to
every floor and department. Wo propose to have not only the largest , but also the boat
arranged and best lighted Clothing Establishment.
Wo have to apologize to our patrons for the present condition of our store , but it
is unavoidable ; we are not only crowded with goods but crowded with buyers at all
times , and customers may find it a little inconvenient but they will find themselves
amply repaid by the low prices we are making throughout our entire stock and the
many bargains wo are offering.
Our stock of Overcoats is enormous and the change in the weather has created
quite a demand for them. We have everything imaginable , or at least desirable , and
among our stock will bo found many lots which are marked in price far below their in
trinsic value.
The Mens' Suit stock is the heaviest ever shown and ils variety warrants the as
sertion that whoever buys a Winter Suit without at least looking hero , fails to consult
his own interest. There is not an establishment in the west that oflora the selection or
names the prices we do.
Boys and Children are as amply provided for we still have some of the special
bargain Knee Pant Suits at $2.50 a suit , which would be cheap at $5.00. We want every
mother to look at this suit. In long Pant Suits and Boys' and hildren' s Overcoats wo
offer great inducements.
Underwear you can buy of us at lower prices than the regular retailers pay fop
them.
Gloves , Hosiery , Neckwear and all other Glens' furnishings at lowest possible-
prices.
Hats are almost given away , at least you would think so if you look at the con
stant rush in our Hat Department. The quantities we handle of these goods , and the
way we buy them puts all competition out of the question.
