Deputy Sheriff Bnlrd succeeded In captur
Ing John Kclkcnbury , the last of the LJeatric
Jail breakers , at the Depot saloon last nigh
at 11 o'clock , but the matter ot the rcarres
was kept quiet to make assurance dnubl ;
fturo ; that is , Bnlrd was In doubt as to th
identity of his man , and wired the sheriff o
Gage county nnd asked him to come to Lin
coin nt once to settle the doubt. Ho cam
this morning , recognized hlsj whilom boardci
Kelkonbury , took him In charge nnd rt
turned him to Beatrice on the 4 o cloc
train , where ho now doubtless agal :
languishes in durance vile. Kelkenburi
With two others , broke Jnll about six week

made good his escape. When Uaird tel
Kolkenbury ho was wanted ho made a vie
ions attack upon him with a billlurd'cuo , bu

Iiowover , that men of intelligence will cot

A well-known railway official stated ycstor
day th at If tbo presidents' organization accora
pllshed nothing but the weeding out of the
numerous trafilc associations , It would bi
performing n worthy mission. At present
thcro are fifty-three distinct trafllc orgnnlra
lions , which are being kept up at the cnor
mous expense of nbont $1,500,009 In salarj
and an almost equally largo amount in ex
peuscs. It wns thought the lotcr-stato lav
would simplify matters , still its record :
m > to show that the same num
bcr of trade organizations exist a. '
before. The traffic manipulators of thi
various roads hnvo been troubled considerblj
by iho work of the middlemen arid by thi
Tact that the roadt , and especially those litho
the west , were being subjected to heavy ex
pcndlturcs to keen up these organization
without receiving any direct benefit. The
oRicinl abovp referred to said : "It will b <
fortunate for the western roads if the prcgl
dents' agreement is formulated and put inti
nctlvo eirecU It never was moro needed thai
now. Hero wo have over tifty sub-organiza
lions with a lot of men living upon us nt t
good salary and for which the roads pony U |
nboul 1,000,000 annually. Wo are obliged li
make up about $500,000 for the salaries fo
the commissioned oQIccrs of thcso nssocin
lions alone. Not nlonc this , but it ! s Jus
like throwing the money away
We have derived little or no advant
ngo from these institutions , nnd they havi
continued to bo more cumbersome eacl
year from a financial standpoint. It is trui
that wo have been drawn more closely to
pother by operating jointly through the traf
lie associations , but tbo realizations havi
not been commensurate with the expendl
turo of money. The president's policy is U
wipe out all these institutions , which wll
turn a largo volume of money into anothc :
channel. " _
Blocknelfi Traffic.
There has been considerable complaint elate
late arising out of tbn blockading of thi
Tenth street crossing by the Union Pacific
The time allowed for cars to remain on thi
crossing is two minutes , after which the ;
must be moved to allow pedestrians and vc
hides to pass. But this provision is notonl ;
infringed upon , but , to a certain ex
tent , disregarded. This morning a chali
of cars was switched on to it
north spur tr.tck , esompletely blockinf
the crossing. No engine was attached anc
when inquiry was made one of tno employes
said that the engine was off after some man
cars to set in on the track. Fully ten min
utcs classed before an opening was made. It
the meantime a large exmcourso of pedes
trians and numerous vehicles had assemble :
and wsre compelled to await the pleasure o
tholrainmcn. Superintendent Hcssiquie wa
informed of the situation and warned th' '
trainmen that a repetition of. the wanton nep
ligenco would result in suspension or dia
missal. _
The lUls < ? oiiri I'aciflc to Huron.
The Missouri Pacific is considering a Dro
Jected line from Omnha to Huron , Dak. It
is said that this is ono of the matters tha
- will bo brought before President Gould
should he visit Omaha on his way back U
New York. A representative of the Mis
sourl Pacific stated to day that such a projec
was being considered , and that it would b >
of great value to Omaha. It would open ui
a territory that is local and would enabli
the Omnha wholesale merchants to estabt isl
direct communication with a territory that i
now occupied by the jobbing houses of St
Paul , Minneapolis and Chicago. On thi
other hand it would open up direct communi
cation between St. Louis and the gram bel
of Dakota , thus affording a strong compel !
live market , a direct route and an outlet foi
export grain. It is stated that Jay Gouli
has , for some time , been looking with an oyi
toward a line to points in Dakota , urn
should he put in an appearance hero , pres
sure will be brought to bear on him to pusl
the above enterprise as rapidly as possible.
Foley and Baxter.
As was stated in THE BEE of Mondaj
R. M. Baxter will to-day succeed J. A
Foley as trainmasler of Ihe Nebraska dl
vision of the Union Pacific with headquarter
in Omaha. Trainmaster Foley had his head
quarter ? at Council Bluffs , but Superin
tendcnt Resscquio decided that the worl
could best be handled here , hence the changi
of quarters. Mr. Koley has been appointee
trainmaster of the Lincoln , Manhattau &
Stromsburg district , and will also enter upoi
bis duties to-morrow.
Water a Luxury.
From reports received water is a luxury ii
certain districts in the west. The Unioi
Pacific has completed wells at certain point
from which to obtain a supply for the on
gines. At Ilock Springs , Wyo. , two well
have been sunk. One of these is 1145 am
the other 1535 in depth ; Table Ilock anothei
1403 feet , nnd nt Salt Wells , Wyo. . a we !
bas been completed , the depth being 2.30
feet. The estimate cost per foot is abou
$10 , tnaklntr the cost of the latter aloni
$23,000.

JOHNSON'S HAPPY VAULEY.
Realized in the Felicity and In no
ccnce or that on the II. P.
Detective Ormsby tells a queer story o
the state of affairs at Valley precinct , a littl
station thirty-four miles from Omaha
Ormsby was Called there by the arrest o
four thieves supposed to have stolen cloth
Ing from nn establishment in this city. H
found that none of the stolen articles hai
the clothing marks of any firm in Omah ;
and therefore put in his time viewing th
place.
Valley precinct , he says , seems to be a
destitute of legal restraint or legal protcctioi
as No-man's-land in the Indian territory
There is a saloon running there without i
license and another establishment which i
said to be a notorious fence /or stolen articles
In faat , the place seems to be a perfect havei
for thieves and any stolen article cai
find a market there. The only industr ;
aoout the place is the exhuming of gravel
and this brings in a rough class of people
The only officer of any kind there seemed t <
be is a Justice of the peace and only a iov
months ago a vigilance committee was or
ganlzed to "regulate" matters. It wai
learned yesterday that some of the article :
found in the possession of the thieves na <
been stolen from the citizens of Valley precinct
cinct , and popular Indignation ran high anc
for a while it looked as though the vigilnnu
committee would step in and "regulate1
matters. It was the first case the iustiei
over had and probably the only arrest evei
made in the place. The Judge didn't knov
the proper legal course to pursue nnd ap
pealed to Ormsby. The detective told him t <
first draw up a complaint agamst thi
thieves. The Justice did not know now. to
draw up this paper and again appealed te
Ormsby to do It for him. There was ni
prosecuting attorney and the Justice osket
Ormsby if ho would fill the position. TOB
was not ambitious ! Tha justlca finally go
the foreman of the gravel pits , a fellow
named Nick Yaeger , to appear in the role 01
prosecuting attorney , who accepted the posl
lion with the words :
"You botcher life I'll persecute then
thieves. "
The court scene that followed is like :
chapter from Dickens. Tno Jury were al
workers ir. the gravel pit. The thieves hai
employed a lawyer from some neighborly
town , but tie was completely squelched b ;
the Judge who answered all his objection
with the remark that tbo citizens of Voile ,
were better than ho. In his speech the at
torneyJor the thieves made a reference to
witness ns a "dead dog in a dung-hill. " Thi
riled the witness and a tight would have ensued
sued bad not the Judge interrupted thet
with tbo remark that they could "fight al
they darned pleased after the trial. " Th
instruction of tbo Judge tothe Jury was brio ]
being as follows :
"I want you to fetch in a verdict to sen
these fellers to Jail. "
The Jury did so , giving two of the thieve
thirty days. The other two were marched
couple of miles into the country and Informe
that it ever they returned they would orna

A Talk With Tlico. GalllRhor.
The Mabonoya have some neighbors who
from their doorstep arc able to see much ol
what transpires out at the alleged asylum fat
the maimed nnd the halt , the poor and the
blind and the Insane , located northwest oi
the city.
One of these , Theodore Galllghcr , who
lives across the road south of the poor farm ,
was scon .yesterday.
"I don't like to say much , " said Mr. Galli-
ghor. "Mr. Mnhonuy and I are neighbors
and then be , through hts Influence with the
commissioners , is In a position to no mo con
siderable injury. They can cut my farm to
pieces by opening up streets , and overburden
mo with taxes. But I could tell you lots of
things , " ho continued , after a few moments'
pause. "More than you have boon told yot. "
Mr. Galllghcr was asked if ho did not
think it was his duty to the unfortunates at
the hospital to make known the shortcom
ings of the superintendent and the matron.
He said he did , nnd that ho stood ready to
go into court and tell these things , but until
Lhon ho would prefer to say nothing. When
told , however , that certain persons had as
serted that there was no truth in the state
ments made in THE BEE concerning the Ma-
tioneys , Mr. Galligher said he thought every
word of the oxuosure was true.
Tlio Dereliction oCthe Commissioners.
"If you know of any mismanagement nt
the hospital , Mr. Galligher , why don't yon
complain to the commissioners ) " asked the
reporter.
'I have found that course useless , " replied
Mr. Gallipher. "Mount won't listen to you
unless there's some money in the deal and
the others are nearly as bad. If they do stop
to listen the words go in one ear and out the
other. "
'A few days ago , Mr. Galligher , " said the
interviewer , "Mr. Mahoney said to mo that
the commissioners visited his place regularly
and know what was going on there ; that they
made regular Inspections of the hospital and
iarm. Do you see them out this way often ! '
"Not once in two months any of them ,
They don't seem to care anything aoout the
piace. "
"You would see them if they visited the
farm , wouldn't you ! "
"I certainly would unless they came after
dark. "
The Devil In Him.
The name of Mrs. Mahoney's son , who is
charged with-tying imbeciles up by the neck ,
being men ! jcmcd , Mr. Galligher cxcla imod ,
"Oh ! that boy , he's a perfect little demon.1
He said that tlie boy played all manner oi
evil pranks' upbn the Idiotic inmates , anc
that Mrs. Mahoney knew it.
Speaking of the uncleanllness of the place ,
ho said tbiit ouo'night when ho was sick his
wife went up. to the hospital after Dr. Tag-
part , and that ho air inside was so vile that
she had to huryy out.
Out on itb high bank of the roadwaj
along the farman _ insane woman was crouch
ing. Direttm' ? the reporter's attention U
her , Mr ? . Galligher , who was present , said ,
"Thome's a poor crazy woman whom wo call
Mary. You will find her out there every
dnv , winter ami eummcr. Since THE BEE
began making the exposures she has been
given a new dress , the ono she had on before
being very dirty nnd ragged. I have seen
this girl out there upon severely cold days in
winter with nothing on but her old dress and
ono skirt , and without stockings , and her
shoes unlaced. Of course the matron know
about it. How could she help knowing ! "
He Sings No More.
Then there's a poor fellow here we call
' Walking Joe , " on account of the mania he
has for walking up and down along the
fence. When the Pierco's was in charge ,
Joe used to have an overcoat and gloves put
on him when he started out for his walk ,
but now , even upon the coldest days , he has
on nothing in the way of outer garments but
a thin coat and pants , shoes and sometimes a
hat. Ho used to slug as he paced up and
down , but ho doesn't do that any more , and
he has crown so thin that it seems as though
ho would be blown away.

"I was an Inmate of the Douglas county
hospital for nearly three years , " said E. A.
Hughes , at present an inmate of the Sol
diers' Homo at Grand Island. "I went there
in December , previous to Pierco's resigna
tion , and left August 25 , 1SSS. I have read
the exposure in Tun BEE , and can vouch for
a largo number of the statements made by
others. The food was very poor at times ,
and often the moat was un&t to cat. I have
left the table without eating , owing to the
stench " .

' 'The care of the invalids in the sick rooms
was left mostly to other inmates. The cloth-
inn on the beds was not changed regularly
and the beds became alive with vermin.
"An old woman , whom thev called Margaret
garot , died while I was there. I cut her hail
the day neforo her death and she was cov

"I have seen men lying In the sick-room
helpless , covered with lice , and Mahonej

"I have been compelled to put on clothing
which was nearly as dirty as that I took off.
The washing was not properly done one-halt

Woman's Inhumanity to Woman.
"I have known of cases where women in
delicate condition wcro compelled to work ir
the laundry and Kitchen until within a fen
hours of the tiino when they wera delivered ,
The vi-ork was too bard for oven a healthy
woman to do. Often women should hav <
been in bed n week before they were permit
ted to go.

Mrs. Mahoney was cruel and inhuman. "

MORTALS IN DISPUTE.
They Seek for Arbitration In the Lo

Emll Mohr a young South Thirteenth
street saloonkeeper was put on trial before
Judge Graft for assault and battery. On the
4th of the month Steven NowDury. a largo
burly fellow wont Into Mohr's plneo Jdrunk
and raised a disturbance which greatly an
noyed everybody , Ho finally punched Mohr
in tbo mouth and called him some very yllo
names. Mohr thereupon armed himself with
the butt end of a twenty-two ounce billiard
cue and proceeded to pound a little sense
into Newberg's hard head.
The cases commenced Monday arc still on
trial before Judges Doano and Hopowcll.
Park Godwin got crushed in the suit of
Haraco J. Kollcy , ct nl , against him. The
jury brought In a verdict for the plaintiffs
and assessed tliolr damages at $30S.vO.
Dalton E. Clark and ticorgo Lcgg were ad

On December' . EtholdaLatsch pui chased
a lot In Parks' addition , of Egbert E. French
nnd George L. Dunhnm , who , It appears , led
her to believe it was clmr of all encum
brances. Subsequently , however , she dls
covered the existence of a mortgage for JOS5.
Mrs. Latsch now brings suit to recover the
amount of that mortgage nnd fc-'OO damages.
Judge Hopewell took up the case of Hunt
vs Horn and others , a suit to recover on 101
head of cattle sold to the defendants nt South
Omaha over a year ago.
The Jury in the case of Horace K. Kelly
nnd others against Park Godwin , gave the
plaintiffs n judgment for $303.70. The suit
was brought to recover $400 alleged to have
been colleztcd by the defendant , as their at
torney , ana appropriated to his own use.
Ethclda A. Latsch brought suit against
Egbert E. French , George L. Dunham nnd
others for fSSo. The plaintiff alleges to have
purchased a lot in Central Park , and that
now she finds there is n mortgage on the
property which is about to be foreclosed.
A bill to foreclose n mortgage on part of a
lot in Shlnn's third addition , was filed by
Minnie C. Ncidick. She claims that H. A.
Beicredorf nnd Charles L. Blazer and others
are indebted to her In the amount of $590 on
three promissory notes , the paytneut of which
was secured by the mortgage.
Given n Chance.
Ora Hemming , a flftcon-yenr-old boy , was
arraigned before Judge Groft yesterday
afternoon on the charge of Incorrigibllity.
His mother accompanied the youth to the
court room and stated that the wavward son
had run away from homo n number of times
and that ho played truant from school. The
court reprimanded htm and told the youth If
his behavior was not good for the next lew
months that ho would bo sent to the re
formatory.
A New Plan.
The Jury before whom Einil Moher was
tried for assault and battery was out ten
minutes nnd "returned with a verdict o
guilty. In such cases as this , many of which
are appealed from the police court , County
Attorney Mahoney may be given the credit
of adopting a plan that will work great re
form. Heretofore it has been the custom of
parties fined for peace disturbances bv Judge
Berkn to take nn appeal , give bond and let
the thing drag along until it finally dropped
out of public memory and would be dismissed
for want of prosecution. Now they are
taken up without delay and tried. Moher
was lined $25 in the police court , which was
lifting him out of a bad scrape very cheaply ,
but he concluded to follow the example of
those who had pone before him. and seek
Justice in a higher tribunal. As a result , the
expense will not fall short of ? 103. Other
offenders will probably be willing to pay a
light iwlice tine and subside.
Bound Over.
Godfrey Beerhatter was run In yesterday
on a charge nf grand larceny , having bor
rowed $31 from William Palmer , while the
latter was not looking and forgetting to
leave an I. O. U. for the amount. He was
