Ton Cents to the Bluff * ,
Monday night the heads of the departments
of the Union Pacific and representatives of the
Electric Motor company held a consultation
In the general manager's oillco , and the re
sult Avas that yesterday morning
n 10-coiit rate between Oainlm and
Council Bin ITs went into effect on
the dummy train. The rate before
the electric motor went into competition was
S.1 cents one way. It wls ! subsequently re
duced to 15 cents , and now another cut of 5
cents is made , making the fnro 10 cents for
one way. Uy this action the commutation
tioltcts on both the Union Pacific -nnd the
electric motor will no longer bo granted , and
no reduction will bo made to any class of
travelers. This will bo severe on the work
ing-class that was enjoying the commutation
rates , which only avor.kged about 0 cents for
the trip one Way. As to the reason of the
change being made conflicting statements
nro m circulation. Olio is to the
effect that the Union Pacific pas
senger trafilo had already suffered a
falling off of about.- ! per eenttind that it has
been picked up by the motor company. This
report Is contradicted at the headquarters of
the Union Pacific. General Manager Kimball -
ball when questioned stated that the charter
under which the city of Council Bluffs
granted the franchise to the Electric Motor
company specilled that the rnto between the
two cities should bo 10 cents for one way.
IIo stated that prior to the reduction in rates
by his road , an understanding was Had
whereby the rates should bo made the same
on both lines the Electric ) Motor and Union
Pacific. Ho stated that for this reason the
change was made. When asked if by abolish
ing the commutation tickets the rates were
not in reality advanced from a general stand
point , he said that nothing definite could be
said until n trial had been made. Ho was of
the opinion , however , that 40 per cent of the
passenger trnfllco was under the commuta
lion tlrUet system. This reduction will only
apply locally and the 25-cont rnto appended
to through tickets from eastern roads uud
points will still remain in effect.
It-Is Not Smallpox.
The following explains Itself :
To the Editor of THE Bun : Your article
in yesterday's issue , referring to smallpox
nnd the action of the board of health insti
tuting quarantine at my residence , requires
some notice.
First , 1 desire to state for the information
of the public , and as n protection to my own
business , that 1 believe now , and have be
lieved from the ilrst , that the case nt my
house is nothing but cowpox that is , an ag
gravated c.iso resulting from vaccination
alnnn , and not in the least . con-
tacious. I nm Justified in this
opinion by the history of the case nnd the
fact that the eruption has almost entirely
disappeared , though less than eight days old.
Had it been a case of varioloid , or modified
smallpox , the eruption would have lasted
nearly or quite two weeks , and others who
were exposed repeatedly , would have comedown
down with the disease ere this. While I
have no fault to tlnd with the authorities for
the measures they have adopted to protect
the nubile in the case at my house , they are
certainly open to censure for the loose and
bungling manner in which they have cared
for the unfortunates who have boon commit
ted to their care.
The llrst case should have boon confined to
the hospital where it developed , especially ns
the oity was without a pest house. It was
surely an act of follv to permit the removal
at all under the circumstances , but to delib
erately thrust the case into a snunty sur
rounded by n score of contiguous residents ,
consisting principally of women and chil
dren , was little short of criminal. Hero
was an instance where au ouuco of prevention
would have been worth a pound of cure.
And again , thinic of a great lumbering body
of city officials resolving themselves into a
board of health nnd disputing with another
great lumbering body of county officials ns
to which of them should pay the bills for
handling smallpox cases. "Ye gods , it doth
nmnzomol" Must these satno blunders be
repeated with every visitation of smallpox ?
Must , ignorance uud imbecility continue to
govern when the precious lives of the people
are threatened ay the dread malady small
pox ! A. .1. COOK , M. D.
"Wreck nt South Oinnhn.
What might have resulted in a serious
railway accident was fortunately averted at
South Omuhnyestcrday morning. The dummy
train on the Union Pacific which leaves hereabout
about 7 o'clock in the morning , was taking
water nt South Omaha when the west-bound
through freight iu charge 6f Conductor
Campbell came thundering alongtho track.
At this point there is a heavy incline in the
track arid to stop the train was a matter
somewhat difficult. The engineer on the
freight train sounded the alarm , the brakes
men mounted the cars and with strong arms
turned tightly the brakes. The train
though being gradually slackened was nearing -
ing the obstnclu and bcforo a halt was
effected the rear plntfonu of the rear pas
senger coach was torn to pieces and the
boiler of the engine protruded through the
Tear of the coach. Fortunately the damage
ia slight and nobody was injuied. .
Pavers Pass a Resolution.
Twenty-live members of the Pavers' Union
met last night to consider a grievance.
Pavers have boon employed in this city dur
ing the summer and have received ut the
rate of 40 cents nn hour for their work.
Hugh Murphy tool : several of them to South
Onmh.t and paid them at the same rate , al
though they expected 50 cents for going out
of the city. The result of the meeting was
the adoption of n resolution to the effect thut
no paver would in future work outside the
city limits for less that DO cents au hour.

Arrayrrt In Costly Ilohcs Mrs. Jlolcn
Molds Participates In n Strange
Ceremony With an Imaginary
Bridegroom at Wichita.
Ilymonlnl Spirits Mocked Hnr.
WirniTA , Dec. IS. Au unparalleled trial
ended last week in the probate court. Tlio
plaintiff was Harry E.Windsor , a handsome ,
popular young sooiety man , who came hereabout
about a year ago from New York city to take
charge of the eastern business of Smcdl.V
Darlington , who filed an information for an
impicst of Insanity upan Mrs. Helen C.
Fields , a beautiful and wealthy widow , who
maintains Unit she haibeon married through
a spiritual medium lo the young broker.
Mrs. Hoxie , Mother of Mrs. Fields , said on
the witness stand that she first noticed the
strange behavior of her daughter last Juno.
She insisted that she was engaged to Mr.
Windsor , and ono day entered his place of
business , talked with him and returned homo
saying the ceremony would bo performed
that afternoon. She accordingly dressed
herself In white and stood upon the front
porch awaiting the coining of the expected
groom. As Mr , Windsor did not appear that
day she dressed herself in the same fashion
suvor.il days afterwards and anxiously
awaited him.
Mrs. Hoxie finally wont to Mr. Windsor
and asked him if ho intended to marry her
daughter. Ho told her ho .did not , and
showed her letters and postal cards from
Mrs. Fields containing allusions to certain
matters of whijli ho know nothing1 , and
couched in the most loving terms. She theu
returned homo and advised her daughter to
stop paying any further attention to Mr.
Winsdor , as he caiod nothing for her.
Mrs. Iloxio also tostilled that her daughter ,
about six weeks ago , began to talk of sigas ,
omens and spiritual manifestations , always
connecting Mr. Windsor with lliciiu Seoinc
her supposed lover drive past her house one
day , Hho ran to her mother , exclaiming :
"Thero he goes now ; the marriage will soon
bo performed. " She commenced to talk of
the church , nnd said that while be wns ap
pointed of Christ to bo her husband , yet ho
should not come between her nnd her God.
One night early in October she dressed
herself in a magnificent wedding trosscau ,
and at 10 o'clock , after the fsunily had roj
tired , stole thus arrayed , from her room and
walked to the First Presbyterian church ,
where she remained several hours going
through an Imaginary marriage ceremony.
The next morning she told her mother that
part of the ceremony bad been performed.
Last Sunday night she went to the church
without cloak or gloves on nnd stood for
some time. The next morning she told her
mother that another part of the ceremony
hud been performed , and that in a few days
it would all end. The following night she
made another trip to the church , wearing
neither bonnet nor shoes. Tuesday night at
1 o'clock , arrayed in black velvet nnd carry
ing in her arms bundles of roses , she entered
the vestibule , and strewing the roses ubout
her , knelt and tolled the church bell. Thurs
day night she appeared at the church at mid
night dressed in n magnificent robe of red ,
and , after remaining tliero until ! f o'clock ,
returned to her house , aroused the family ,
sung hosniinas , declared that at last ttic
spirits had united her to the man of her
choice , und asked to bo taken immediately to
him ,
Mr. Scott , who lived with Mrs. Fields and
her mother , said she had often told him she
was being married through a spiritual
agency to Mr. Windsor. She said , when
questioned as to why Mr. Windsor did not
claim her , that it wns a part of the pro
gramme to bo carried out. "There are cer
tain vows and penances to bo fulfilled by
both of us , " she said , "and then I nm going
to claim him. " She has bought beautiful
wedding outfits several times to perform this
spiritual ceremony , und has been ready
every Sunday for the past six months to receive -
coivo her lover , wearing the elegant cos
tumes , and with her carriage and driver
read } ' to drive her and her husband off to the
spirit-land to spend their honeymoon.
Mr. Windsor , when put upon the stand ,
appeared very much eniDarrassed and said
be had known Mrs. Fields for about a year.
Hc'hud received letters ana packages of tll
kinds containing allusions to things spiritual
and of transactions that ho knew
nothing of. Tliero also came
a pile of boxes * with poetry
and llowcrs and disconnected letters. Ho
said ho had never spoken to her of marriage.
A letter written last spring Enid that she
understood the manifestations and wus too
ill to come to his ofllce , but that if ho would
call on her it would be all right and she
would "waive formiilltiea with pleasure. "
He had not spoken to her since last summer
and never noticed her on the street.
Mrs , Fields , who is a beautiful woman ,
next took the stand. She was richly dressed ,
and us she related bow she "had striven to bo
worthy of her spiritual bridegroom she wept.
She related the story of hpw she had re
ceived the signs and omens with great ear
nestness , and told with uo little feelingaow
she had boon married.
"Now I see , " she sobbed , "that I have mis
understood all the signs , and it wus all , ajl in
vain. " She appealed perfectly sane upon
every otbor subject und the jury returned a
verdict of "Not insane. " *

Holmes went homo from council meeting

protect him from the White Caps , A serious
part of the matter cropped out yesterday

from all over the country , both of encour
agement and in condemnation of his course.
Ho 1ms received a quantity of papers with
marked articles containing statements of
outrages that the White Caps have done in

Dcpow Doesn't Afiijrc With Adams.
NEW YORK , Dec. li-riSpeclal Telegram to
TUB BKI ; . ] Chaunccy 'M. Depow says in re
gard to the address read last Saturday be
fore the Commercial ; club of Boston by
Charles Francis Adams on railroads : "I do
not agree with Adams as to the gigantic
consolidations of which. ' ho speaks , but it
is true th.it the present intense discussion ns
to the feasibility of great consolidations , of
clearing houses , an $ of. so-called railway
trusts conies from thb overwhelming anxiety
of railroad managers and Investors to over
come , in a lawful way. the difliculties of the
present situation. There can never bo a
railway trust , in the sense m which that
word is understood. 1 think Air. Adums' de
scription of the low inorul tone of the rail
way manairers of tha country is too strongly
druwu. The majority of railway managers
arc loyal to the properties under their con
trol ana bring to the performance of their
duties conscientious and tireless industry ,
which is greater than that exacted in other
great Corporations. On account of the na
ture of the business , our people have always
fouiid their way out of ditliculties in a man
ner which demonstrates their business
genius , and I think they nnedcd the explo
sion of a can of dynamite like that Mr.
Adams has fired off to start a movement
which will end in a practical and wise solu
tion of these railw.iv problems. "
Depew ridiculed the idea that there was
any probability of th inter-state commerce
law ueing repealed. Ho did not desire such
action , but would like to see some ucedod
amendments.
Who Put the Bell on Thin Buzzard ?

on a carcass near by and couldn't fly. After
detaining it for a few hours they permitted it
to fly awny again.

Jfi Doc. 13. lu the senate to
day the resolution for evening sessions was
taken up and nn muoiidinent offered to it by
Mr. Merrill providing that , until otherwise
ordered , the daily hour of meeting bo 11 n.
m. , and that at 5UO each day n recess bo
tnkcn till T p. m. There w.is considerable
opposition to the resolution on the part of
democrats , and after n somewhat lengthy
debate , at the suggestion of Mr. Merrill
further coiislderntiSn was postponed until
to morrow. A compromise of soiuo kind Is
under consideration nnd will probably bo
made.
The house concurrent resolution for n
holiday recess w.is reported back frcrtn the
finance committee with un nmcndmont re
stricting it to the house of representatives.
11 went over without notion till to-morrow.
Consideration of the tariff bill was then
resumed , paragraph 151 , applying to iron or
steel wJro , being taken up.
Mr. Saulsbury offered an amendment ,
which was ngreed to , inserting alter the
words , "except fence wire , " the words , "and
iron nnd stool , fiat with longitudinal ribs , for
the manufacture of fencing. "
Mr Aldrich ofToro.l au amendment , which
was ngreed to , toliisert"id"ltisto.idor"45"so ;
us to make the proviso rend that "all iron or
steel wire valued nt more than 10 cents per
pound shall pay n duty of not loss than 33 per
cent ad valorem. "
No amendment was offered to paragraphs
IfW , 153 , 151 or 153. No amendments ivcro of
fered to paragraphs 15(5 ( to l. > t > , incluslvccom-
ing under the head of "general provisions , "
until the last one was reached , which was
amended on motion of Mr. Aldrk'h by adding
"for steel saw plates , " so as to make it read ,
"nnd on stool circular saw plates there shall
bo p.iul 1 cent per pound in addition to the
rnto provided iu this net for steel saw
plates. "
Paragraphs ICO to IK ! inclusive , no amend
ments offered. Paragraphs Hid to 174 ; relat
ing to copper nnd cutlery , were passed over
informally.
The senate then , having disposed of about
three paragraphs of the bill , proceeded to
executive business und adjourned.
House.
W \SHI.VOTOX , Dec. IS. In the house to
day Mr. Springer of Illinois stated that ho
would not call up the territorial bills to-day.
There would bo a meeting ot the committee
on territories to-morrow , and it would bo
determined when the house measure would
bo considered.
The house then went into committee of the
whole and proceeded to the consideration of
legislative appropriations.
Mr. Henderson of Iowa moved to increase
the clerical force of the civil service commit
tee , and the amendment was opoosod by Mr.
Randall. A debate theu ensued ou the mat
ter of the civil service. Mr. Henderson said
that the spirit of the law had not bosn car
ried out in good faith by the present admin
istration.
Mr. McMillan of Tennessee challenged this
statement.
Mr. Henderson replied that ho was thor
oughly satisfied , and believed that every
other member of the house is , that iu the se
lection of clcrlCH under the civil service law
politicslmvc absolutely dominated. IIo is. well
biitislied that republicans who passed tho-ex-
nuiitmtion with u higher record than that of
some democrats who have beau selected
utterly failed to secure recognition. "When
we find stated under the oath of a bureau
chief , nnd boasted of , thiit-lir per csut of the
appointments iu this office are democrats , "
hu said , "wo know that some singular man
ipulation is going on. "
Mr. Cummings of New York moved to
strike out the whole clause relating to the
civil service commission. He believed the
commission to be undemocratic , und he know
thut if theTules of the commission were ap
plied to members of the house not llvo-
eighths of them would ever roach its floor
again.
Mr. Spinola of New York favored the
motion as ono with , which seven-eighths of
the people of the country sympathised. Ho
know that thrco-fourths of the republicans
are faiuceroly inwardly opposed to the civil
service law , and the democratic side of the
hpuso , if it could bo polled sincerely , would
bo unanimous , because it would be acting in
accordance with the request of an over-
whclmins : majority of tlio people. The demo
crats arc going to obey the order of Novem
ber like thorough Americans and democrats.
Mr. Henderson usUed if the democratic.1
party did not pledge itself in favor of the
civil service law.
Mr. Spinola It is and was in favor of an
honest civil service law. I will explain that
from a democratic standpoint. It is the civil
service law of Jcircron. When au applicant
appeared ho was asked : "Is ho honest i Is ho
capablol Is ho a irlcud of the constitution ? "
That means of the democratic party
Mr. Buchanan of New Jersey Did the
gentleman's clarion voice ring in be
half of those principles iu IS-Hf
Mr. Spinohv Never in my life ; and , what
is more , thut ancient and powerful organisa
tion that sontuic here time after time , by
resolution , denounced this law , uud , until it
changes front. I , ai a humble , member of
Tammany hall , shall stand hero and oppose
this legiblatloii.
Mr. Henderson's amendment was finally
rejected 27 to 00.
The debate was continued nt length by
Mesars. Brown of Indiana , and Springer of
Illinois. The latter took occasion to Bay
that if President Harrison udmiulateruil the
civil service law In the same npirit m which
it lis beou administered by Cleveland , the
people would have no reason to complain ,
Continuing , ho said that if it were not fur
that cum bcr.some nnd obsolete houril known as
the electoral cnllego the democrats would
now bo rojoiciug in n great notional victory.
On the principle which bib party mibmitted
ut the lust election , there was a Itiruc major
ity at people on the popular vote , who de
cided iu favor of the platform of the demo
cratic ) party.
The Ledge of Massachusetts said that in
view of tlio opportunity which the democrats
possessed for increasing Cleveland's majority
in the southern titutcs , they must fuel liku
Lord Clivj and wonder ut their own moderation - .
tion in giving him only 103,01)0 ) majority.
.Tho motion of Mr. Cummings to tttnko out
Lho civil service suction was finally rejected
-5 to JUS and the reading of the bill wus
concluded. The committee then arose uud
the bill wus passed.
Mr. Tillumii , of Snutli Carolina , reported
.he military academy bill , and it wuu placed
on the calendar.
