A CHECK IN HIS CAREER , Buddon DIsnppoarnnco of a Olork I' ' Who Had Stood WoU. HE HAD SOME PAPER CASHED. ff ho Mel hod nj- Which Ho Did This Hns nocn Called Into Borlous Question 'By ' Hla Employers. Ilnycs Made a Mistake. The fact became known yesterday that E. J. Ilnjesca3hicr and bookkeeper for the Crane manufacturing company , suddenly disap peared Tuesday morning and has not slnco been heard of. Discrepancies in some of his financial transactions , are said to hare been the direct cause of his unaccounted Absence , and it it thought ; his accounts nro several hundred dollars short. On Monday , Manager Laity had his attention called to a check for something llko $100 , that bad ocoir cashed for Cmno Hros. on Hayes' endorsement at the Nebraska National bonk nnd repudiated it on the ground that Mr. Hayes had no authority to endorse checks. Several months ago , It seems , Hayes was empowered to do this , but Mr. Lally says that the authority has been recently , taken from him. The bank people claim that they had not been given any notice to that ofTcct and cashed the chock without question , ns they had done many times before. The 11 rm has no knowledge yet ns to how much money the young man ob tained in this way. it is supposed ho had checks cashed at several of the banks. When the ono in question came up and was disputed , Hayes undoubtedly concluded that his tlmo for disappearing had come. Ho ivcnt to the ofllco Tuesday mornincr , worked half the forenoon , put on his cent nnd hat , walked out , and that is the lost any one in Omaha remembers of having seen Mm. Ho formerly resided at 514 North Six teenth street. Mr. Lally , manager of the Crane Bros lanufncturtng company , said lost night that Hayes had never been given authority to en dorse checks in the name of the company. While they have always dono. their banking with the Merchants National , Hayes had taken these checks to the Nebraska National , knowing very well that they would not bo cashed at the bank at which the compan transacted its business. Mr. Lally said that ho was absent , being in Chicago , when Hayes had the check cashed , but that slnco the denouement ho had learned that sotno ol the olllcials of the No- brnskit National questioned the validity of the check and sent over to the company's ofilco and made Hayes rafuad the money. The first intimation Mr. Lally received of nny irregularity , was through Cashier Woods of the Merchant's National who had hoard of thu affair. Mr. Woods sent a messenger to Crane Bros' , ofllcc requesting- . Lally to call at the bank. Hayes received the mes sage nnd delivered it to Mr. Lally. When Mr. Lally returned , Hayes , who evidently had suspected that his misbehavior had been discovered , had disappeared nnd hasn't been Been since by his former employer or about the streets. Mr. Lally says that ho does not think the company will lose any money by Hayes' de falcation , ns ho is of the opinion that ho can hold the bank for the amount of the check. An effort will bo made to llnd the delinquent one nnd bring him to Justice. Hayes , before ho became connected with Crane Bros. , was employed at the Nebraska National bank. Ho has a mother , sister and brother residing in the city , who feel the disgrace of their son and brother keenly. Mr. Lally said that he had always consid ered Hayes nn exemplary young man , but that since his disappearance ho has learned that ho was In the habit of spending money lavishly and had habits inconsistent with a good moral character. A reporter called on Mr. Henry Yates , president of the Nebraska National , and that gentleman said ho believed the trouble- would bo straightened out satisfactory to every body. His theory of the affair Is that Hayes has gone on a spree , and wncn ho guts sobei will return. A rumor to the effect that Mr , Richardson , teller of the bank , had been dis tchargcd for accepting and cashing the pro cstcd check is without foundation. Within two hours after taking it ho went to Hayes nnd got the money buck. The check called lor something Ilka f l. > 0 , instead of $100 , u : flrst * reported , and when Richardson de manded the.rcturn of the cash from Hayes ho had then spent $100 and was compelled tc borrow that amount from his brother in ordci to" make the account good.

Omntiix In to Secure n Structure Vnlticdnt $1.500,000. For some time post the Uulon 1'aclfic has been taking steps toward the construction of a union depot In Omaha. Plans nnd profiles hnvo repeatedly been dntwn for this , thus far , mythical structure , but , on each occasion , have the hopes of the projectors been blasted , However , that a movement toward a depot , of which some thing may bo expected , is now progressing , Is admitted , but nsdo ! from the project on paper , nothing has as yet been consummated. For the post flvo months th'o Burlington and the Union Pacific have been endeavor ing to agree upon a plan for n union depot at this place. Owing Iff the existing circum stances considerable preliminary work had to bo done before any definite movement could be made. One of the most important of the preliminary ar rangements was the disposition of the earnings , n largo percentage of which would arise from the crossing of the Union Pacific bridge by trains on the Iowa side. The Bur lington not only wanted to secure a part of the income from the depot proper , but also demanded that a certain percentage of the other bo granted. After a thorough consid eration , it i stated that the Union Pacillo agreed to the Burlington's demand. Both companies then drafted plans for a depot , estimating the cost of the building nnd grounds at $1,509,000. The site for tno build ing in both instances was the ground now occupied by the passenger depots of the Union Pacific nnd Burlington on South Tenth street. The Union Pn- ciflo plans provide for n building on the site of the present dcpotof that company , with a ground surface of 30 $ feet in length , cast and west , and 8 $ feet wide , north ( hid south. The shed which Is now being used is a part of the now structure , but the building proper is to bo entirely new , of brick with Btono facing , and to bo of gothlcdesigns with twenty-eight-foot posts , making It the height ot the average four-story building. It wilt also bo adorned with a tower which will extend thirty feet above the roof. In connection with this the upper portion of the building is assigned to onices , and the lower portion will bo used as ticket ofllce , waiting-rooms , baggage rooms and express depot. As nn auproach , a viaduct over the Tenth street yards is to bo built , which will be used for vehicles and pedestrians , nnd will bo on a level with its second story. The cost of this feature is to bo defrayed oy tno city of Omaha. The Union Pacillo plans also- provide for an entry and delivery of all pas sengers and baggage on the north sldo of the building. The Burlington has a set of plans which closely conform with that of the Union Pa cific nsido from the main entrance nnd de livery being on the south side. The shed also reversed and placed on the south side nr ' . on thu further side ol the latter there Is provided for the construction of a baggage depart ment twenty feet in width nnd 3s3 feet -in length. In both instances , the amount In volved isflfiGO,000. As yet neither plan has been decided upon. At present the propositions nro In the hands of President Adams of the Union Pacific and President Perkins of the Burlington and upon the decision and agreement of these individuals hinges the commencement of thu work. The officials of the respective roads were questioned this morning.concerning the mat ter and admitted that the above was under consideration by the presidents aud that in all probabdity the Union Pacific plan would bo adopted. President Adams will submit the proposed project at the meeting of the di rectors to be held in Boston April 24 , and at which time a Joint conference between the directorates of both roads on this matter will bo had. Independent lines , that is , the Iowa roads which fail to enter into the deal , will be allowed to cross the Union Pacific bridge and enter the union , denot by paying a pro rata rate to be agreed upon Jointly by the roads interested in the building. Following up this project the Union Pacific will convert its ground on Tenth street into passenger yards , and the freight depot will bo located at the foot of Jackson street. An inbound freight yard is also to be established at Summit. In connection with its freight trade , a rumor is in circulation to the effect that another bridge is to bo constructed for the use of freight trains only , and that this will span the river from the foot of Jackson street. These arrangements provide for the maintenance of the transfer and freight yards at Council Bluffs as * at present , and the passenger service will bo conducted at the Bluffs , but upon a minor scale. The most important feature of the move ment aside from the building of its depot is . that Omaha will bp made the terminal point of the Union Pa cific and also of all the Iowa lines on the west which will make Omaha n port of entry and delivery which , it is said , will be a great auxiliary to the commercial resources of this city. The carrying out of this prdjcct awaits the action of the directorates of both the Burlington nnd Union Pacific and an official of the latter who is in a position to know what ho is saying states that m nil probaollity an argument will bo reached and that the long desired structure will be con structed ; also that none but railway capital will bo invested in the building. LOCAL TRAIN SERVICE : . Inu-a Lines Out Off 15O.OOO Miles of Service Per Month. It is stated that the Iowa lines have do- tided to counteract , the work of the railway commission of that state and that , out of the numerous local trains that were in service up to a short time ago , not one is being run at the present time all the traftic being han dled by the mainline trains. A renort re ceived in Omaha yesterday from Vice Chair man Daniels of the Central Traffic association , shows that the reduction In train service in this way will foot uu 150,000 per month , which , at a low estimate , results in the sav ing ot about $30,009 per month to th3 Iowa lines. As regards the local train service of Ne braska , the Fremont , Elkhorn & Missouri Valley and the Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapo lis & Omaha hnvo taken the only steps , it is said , in reducing their local train service. In both Instances the work has rovertcd to the through or main line trains. The olllcials of the Iowa lines have dccldpd that a reduction lu rates can only bo met by a corresponding reduction in accommoda tions to the public. It is rumored that the Milwaukee road is figuring on taking off its trains to a largo extent on the line between Muson City , la , , nnd Austin , Minn. The abandonment of trains both in Iowa and Nebraska 1ms been the cause of more or loss complaints and Inland towns uro seriously affected it is claimed for the reason that transportation facilities are largely reduced , and at certain points and certain periods un reliable. t Weighing ; System Abandoned. The weighing of livestock at Omaha and South Omaha which was suspended about four weeks ago has been abandoned , nnd the roads hava resorted permanently to the handling of live stock in car lots. It was thought that the railway commission of Kun sas would rescind its action in ordering the weighing system in that state abolished , but this having failed the roads to-day decided to abandon the weighing system at those two points and also nt Nebraska City , Plaits- mouth and all local points west of the Mis souri river. A Committee- Inspection. The officials of the Union Pacific yesterday received notification to the effect that on April 0 , the special senatorial committee on Pacillo railway legislation would meet at Chicago on April 8 , the committee would arrive in Omalia , and from hero an Inspec tion of the Union and Central Pa- citio system will bo mado. The committee will spend six weeks lookIng - Ing into certain matters connected with two roads. H Is stated that this was brought about through the discussion of the merit * and demerits of the > Outhwalte funding bill Conservative ttiinuora are of the opinion that the cominlttoo will either recommend the passage of the bill referred to , or the declaration of insolvency and the appoint incnt of a receiver. It is likely that Presi dent Adams will accompany the committee on its tour of inspection. Railroad Notes.

AN OPEN' QUESTION. Is Harrison n Descendant or Pocn- hontas ? It is popularly believed that Prosi- Icnt Harrison is descended from Poca- tiontas and from the parliamentary soldi or and regicide General Thomas Harrison , who was executed in 1060. Poenhontas , daughter of Powhatan , manifested a friendliness for the early white settlers of Virginia when she , was but a pirl. The story of how she saved the life of Captain John Smith , who had been captured and condemned to death by her father is well known to all acquainted with the early history of America. Her subsequent marriage with John Rolfe , an Englishman her removal to England where a son was born , from whom numerous wealthy families of Virginia claim descent is the basis of the opinion that Prosit dent Harrison is ono of her descend ants. ants.The name of Harrison is already in delibly written upon thepapesof Amor- fcan history , for General William Hen ry Harrison the ninth president of the United States was the grandfather of General Bon. Harrison. The inauguration of another member of the Harrison family is but another proof of the disposition of the public to return to n healthy administration of public affairs so characteristic of earlier years. A similar desire has been man ifested for a revival of early customs in various ways , of which mention can bo made of tno prevailing demand for those old time preparations which were so successfully employed in the pre vention and cure of the ills which fre quented the early log cabin homes. After much inquiry a noted manu facturer has procured the original methods used in their preparation and again under the name of Warner's Log Cabin Remedies , the public is pos sessed of those well-known preparations for tno cure of coughs , colds , consump tion in its early stages , blood disorders , catarrh , dysposia , debility , and ether common disorders. Notwithstanding the large amount of attention which the manufacture of Warner's Safe Cure demands its well- known reputation as the only remedy for the prevention and cure of kidney diseases being world wide the manu facturer is resolved to push the merit of Warner's Log Cabin Sarsaparilla to the front because of its splendid blood purifying properties and great value as a household remedy. , OUTSIDE COUNSEL. Will It Bo Used In the Prosecution of Miss Bcoohlcr ? The prospects arc very favorable for Elizabeth Beechler , the fair slayer of Harry King , being put on trial ono week from next Monday. The lawyers think they will be ready to proceed with the case by that time. The woman has repeatedly expressed her anxiety to have tno matter over , that she may know her fate as soon as possible. The life in Jail and its attendant expectations as to the result nro becoming irksome and causing the fair p-lsonor to give evidence of failure both in body and spirits. It is difficult to predict Just what course will bo pursued in the trial until Henry King , sr. , father of the slain man. decides whether ho will personally assist the state by employing additional counsel for the prosecution. On his action hinges the em ployment of a special attorney to assist County Attorney Mahonny. It is understood that , within the past month , Mr. King en tertained serious doubts as to whether he would do 'more than merely furnish the slate with such information nnd evidence as it might require of him , though bo is to definitely determine-his course some time this week. Since the day of her ar raignment , which was the first time sinca committing the crime , that she had been brought into the presence of a crowd , Miss Bccchlcr has boon more eager than she was bcforo to face the prosecution and have her story told to the court. Claimed by Two Parties. Little Fred Hoffman has been returned to the Clarkson Memorial hospital oblivious of the legal contest for his possession. Frcddlo is suffering with hip disease , and since the death of his mother has been cared for by his grandmother , Mrs. Brandt. Later his father had him brought to the Clarkson Memorial hospital for treatment. Hccently the grandmother was taken seriously ill , and thinking she was about to die , asked to sco Freddie. Ho was taken to her a week ago , and slnco then she has recovered and refused to give up the little fellow. The father was. finally forced to get out a writ of habeas corpus to get the child back again , so as to have him taken to the hospital for further treatment. _ The Weaver's Strike Extending.

Thp following order was Issued this morn ing by Mayor Hrontcti to Chief Scavay , anil \vlll readily explain itself : MATCH'S OFFICE , ) Omalia , Nob. March 14 , 183D. | Mr. W. S. Soavoy , Chief of Police , City- Dear Sir : It has boon my policy to brine about a gradual compliance with laws which were not enforced , and In a manner which would produce the least friction. In my treatment of the liquor clement I have boon conservative and trusted to the good scnso ot those engaged in tnat business to promote their own interest by a cheerful and voluntary compliance with the laws. The propositions for an amend ment to the constitution cither for prohibit ing or high license will bo submitted ( or the suffrages of the people a year from next fall. I am personally in favor of high license and am well aware of the disadvantages to which the frlonds of tncasuro would bo put ware the advocates of prohibition able to point to Omaha ( as they would do and hnvo done In other states ) as a glaring example of the inefficiency of the high license law. Because it is the law and is right , you will please notify all saloonkeepers to close their places of business hereafteron Sunday. Respectfully , W. J. BuoATCti , Mayor. Upon receivlne the above. Chief Seavey immediately issued an order to the following effect : That Sergeant Slgwart and Officer Pu- Inskiarcdetailed to notify all saloon keepers and inn keepers that next Sunday and every subsequent Sunday all saloons and hotel bars must bo closed from 13 o'clock Saturday night until 4 o'clock Monday morning. All the officers on the force nro instructed to .take the names and addresses of any persons not comulying with this order , but are not to arrest offenders. The Mayor Interviewed. "I intend to exact a conservative enforce- meut of the law and do not wish' to do any thing harsh , " suid Mayor Broatch last night , but I fcol that it is in the interest of saloon keepers generally to give a cheerful compli ance to the law as it is laid down. My idea all through has bean to educate the people tea a gradual compliance with the requirements of the law , and 1 have endeavored to do this , although at times the work seemed difficult. Omaha has been held up as u model high icenso city , and I have received numberless letters as to how the system worked. I re ceived ono from Pennsylvania the other day , which credited a prohibition lecturer with saying that the only way saloonkeepers could raise their license was by running a gambling house attacnmcnt or by throwing their saloons open to prostitutes for whom they paid a monthly license of $10. Of course I at once wrote a contradiction , jiu that letter Is only a sample of those I al most daily receive. It is the same In IseJ jraska , where Omaha is held up as an ex ample of the inefficiency of the high license law. Just because the Sunday closing section of the act has not "been enforced. I think Chat these cries should bo. stopped , and I think that the real interest of the city and the liquor elementas. well requires that the law as it now stands bo complied with , so as not to leave a cudgel in the hands of tno pro- hiDitlonists when the campaign opens in this state. Prom what" I have seen , I think a largo majority of the" Omaha saloon keepers , arc law abiding , add willing to comply with what they know isJaw. A few of them maybe bo guilty of technical offenses , and wo have no desire to deal harshly with such , but there are some who wilfully and openly defy the law , and they can expect uo jenicncy. The law will bo enforced. " Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is made especially for coughs and colds and will euro a severe cold in less time than any ether treatment.

Can Dr. Ralph Promise It to Consum ers in this City ? A reporter called on city physician Ralph yesterday nnd enquired in what manner 10 intended to see that the city of Omaha should have nothing but pure milk. He said that ho would accomplish this by simply compelling the milk inspectors to submit to him once every week , a report of their inspection , and that every suspicious case would bo vigorously taken hold of and investigated. In case of the conviction of nny milk man the very severest penalty of the lav/ Would bo visited upon him. The doctor was then askol about the sys tem of testing used by these so-called inspectors specters , and rcjilicd that they used both the acetic acid and lachUimeter systems , supple menting these , not infrequently with a chemical analysis by some competent chemist. The hydrometer , as a determinator of the purity or impurit.y ot milk.it is a well known fact , has long been proven ineffective if not utterly useless , while the use of acids is also unsatisfactory. The only true test , ns a well-known physician remarked to THE BED man is by chemical analysis. There are 1S2 milk men in the city of Omaha , and some of them , hinted the doctor , are very "fly" in their devices to cheat Hickstem's lactometer , and he hadn't any doubts but that four out of cvnry five milkmen dealt not only in highlv adulterated milk , but impure milk- milk that ought not to be used for nny pur pose. He added that Dr. Ralph could not bo too strict in this matter , as in the hot summer months impure milk was the source of much serious sickness. "The system of detecting Impure milk , as at present practiced in this city is a failure. " said a tax-payer to-day. "Dr. Ralph knows it is. He also knows that his boast about letting us have only pure milk is a sham. How can ho prevent iti Milk cannot bo tested now without a cost of about $20 tor every chemical analysis. Dr. Ralph knows ho can't make such a test , and such being the case ought not to bo nt the head of the board of health. The city physician ought to bo a chemist , and then ho would bo able to determine for himself whether milk were pure 01 otherwise. Complexion.powder is an absolute ne cessity of the refined toilet in this cli- mnto. Pozonni's combines every ele ment of beauty und purity. South Omaha Notes.
