unprecedented. Ihc Judges wcro compelled
yesterday to moke n call of the general
docket before finding cases enough for tJirco

fraudulently obtained the sum of $148 03
from her , which amount was deposited in

United States Court.
In the case of Kettle vs Harrington , an ac
tion brought against the ox-sheriff and other
ofliciirs of Cass county for selling exempt
property , n motion was made yesterday to
require defendants to make their petition
more definite and specific. Motion sustained.
A motion was filed in the case
of Louis B. Miller vs John F. Burruss to
compel tbo plaintiff to give bonds for costs in
said case. Millar brought suit for the pos
session of bis child , a sweet little girl of
seven years. When the child was seven
months old. Miller's wife died and the hus
band gave the llttlo girl to her grand-parents ,
Mr. and Mrs. Burruss. Miller afterwards
brought suit for repossession of the Nomaha
county court , which was decided in favor of
Burruss. The case was carried up to the
district court on a writ of error , but again
the decision was in favor of the defendant.
Here , for a time , the matter was dropped.
Miller then re-married and removed to Ox-
fora county , Ohio , and now brings a habeas
corpus suit , a now suit entirely , for posses
sion of his offspring : . On motion of tbo
plaintiff the case has been continued until
the Ulst.
A package of depositions , weighing flvo
pounds was received by express by Cleric
Prank in the celebrated equity case of El-
inordorf & Co. vs. J. S. McAloor & Co. This
case involves some valuable mill property at
Nebraska City , and has been pending a long
tlmo.
The petit Jury was sworn in and the case
of Sechlor & Co. vs. M. V. B. Bristol et al.
on a note , was the first cose to come up. A
verdict of $1,185.83 was rendered in favor of
the plaintiff.
The case of Lucius Wcunschnctt vs. John
A. Freylmn on a note , was given to the jury.
The following interesting case has boon re
vived. Several months since the postofllca
at Hulsoy , this state , wasj-obbed of valuable
packages and registered letters. The
postmaster , G. P. Connell , and
his wife wcro arrested on suspicion. Council
was also station agent on tbo B. & M. , and
his wife acted as bis deputy in both oillces.
They were brought to this city , and for
three weeks kept under a guard at a boardIng -
Ing house , Deputy Marshall Hcpilngor serv
ing In the capacity of their custodian. They
wcro finally released on their own recogni
sance , and it was supposed from tbls.actlon
that the evidence was insunlciont. nnd that
that \vould end the case. Tito charge against
the Councils was for rifling mail packages.
Cor.nell is now in the employ of the Omaha
Casket Manufacturing company , but his
wife Is still nt Halsey. It now appears that
subpoenas have been issued for a largo num
ber of mull clerks to appear before the grand
Jury , by whom it is expected to show thut
this alleged theft could not have occurred on
either pf the routes touching Halsoy , and It
is likely that the Councils are to have an
early hearing. *

, V Rumor' Mint tlri stnmlnnl Oil People
ple MntTAbiorb Wlilin hand.
The wlltjUejMl ) comblnntton hixs Us olllces
with the ptiyiJarJ Oil people , nnil It Is un
derstood that , ivhtto lead , zlun and turpen
tine will ojijken cnro of this season , nnd
that consumers will settle the b'lls. ' The
present policy. It Is said , Is to redUeo prices ,
Irccre out the 'smaller factories nnd dealers
nnd , this nWotlipllshcd , recoup nil losses tind
mnko hnmlhomo proilts by n forced rise In
unices. Turpentine , the rumor asserts , wilt
bo put at ffjo " , ! white lend nt2e It necessary
to clvo tho'comblnation coiuplcto future con
trol of the markets , ana that the llnsocd oil
.producers will assist the grabber of carbon
oils. Color of plausibility Is given the rumor
by the Intltnato relations of the staples In-
volved. Turpentine has boon handled by
the Standard tank cars scut Into the turpcn-
tlno roRions with carbon oil nnd Its products ,
nnd which otherwise would luivo boon re
turned to their owner empty. Linseed oil Is
usf d largely In the application of whlto lead
nud zinc.
'Jhero nre twouty-flvo corrodors In
the whlto load trust nnd but
four , the Carter Whlto Load company ,
of Omaha , the Collier nnd Southern Whlto
Load companies , of St. Louis , ana Eckstein
White Lend company , of Cincinnati , out of
the consolidation. This Is probably as stronjr
iin nKf.'rcftntIon ns the Standard OH company.
Yno statement that officials of the latter
company hiwo purchased a majority of the
white load certificates' may bo correct , since
their purchase of ccrllllcatus has been open
and well known. However , it Is learned
that the control of the lead trust , or the ap
preciation In value , under the agreement of
the corrodors to maintain prices , of the cer
tificates , miislit account for the action of the
Standard ofllulals. In support of the last
motive comes un actuul advance In certifi
cates from $12 per share to $31 mid & * .
President Hontz , of the load nnd Standard
oil trust , says that the Standard Is not in
control.
A reporter was detailed to inqulro Into the
Knowledge of the rumor possessed by local
producers , dealers and users , and In the
event ot Us truth , to obtain opinions of the
effect of the operation of the consolidation
on all concerned.
It was learned that the confirmation of the
report that the Standard oOlcials huvo suo-
coodod In bagging a controlling share of
whlto load certificates ivould necessarily
crnato unfavorable comments and reflections
by reason of the notoriously bad llavor at
taching to that monopoly's methods.
Mr. Oscar Goodman did not bollovo It
probable that there would bo any alarming
reduction in the commodities , and did not
see how his firm would bo affectoa by the
combination if it was tnado. If the Standard
did anything In whlto load It would have to
put up a big consideration , as the producers
of that commodity wcro making plenty of
money , nnd would bo disposed to hang ou to
n good thinjr. Ho was not prepared to siiy
what the effect of the combination would bo ,
but thought his interests would bo pre
served.
Mr. Woodman Wo don't know anything
about such n report. So far ns linseed oil
assistance is concerned , we know there Is
not a shadow of truth in it. I Know a good
deal about the linseed oil business of the
United States , 'ana ' there has boon no confer
ence of thut iutcrost with the white load or
Standard .people. The Standard Oil outfit
has nothing to do In any way , shape or
form with -production of linseed oil and
I would regard an attempt by the Standard
to control tliesO lines , in n business way. ns
preposterous.1 CWhile there is a whlto lead
trust it. dovgn't.begin to include all the cor
roding capacity of the country. It might bo
that such a centralization of production
would work1 out > a cheapening of production
which would flially accrue to the consuuior.
Mr. Welter , pf the HIchardson Drug com
pany Thd1 Standard Oil company cannot'
control the whlto load and turpentine out
put. ThoCarb.qu oil people have lots of
money , but when they come to absorb these
products thoywill Una Interests too diversi
fied for their managemnnt. The Southern
and Colliercompanies , of-St. Louis , nnd Eck
stein , of Cincinnati , do about as profitable a
white lead business ns falls to the Standard
in oil , and It is hardly businesslike to antici
pate the buying up of these producers by the
Standard. The control of the turpentine
business includes the purchase of North
Carolina almost. I can see that prices on
that staple could bo. dictated for a
short time , but 'just as soon as
an attempt should bo made to greatly
cnbnnco prices , the premium thus offered
would create sources of supply that would
speedily tone the market to a normal condi
tion , and the final user of turpentine would
bo saved from harm.
Mr. Bruce , of 131al < c , Uruco & Co. , said
that ho had no knowledge of the subject from
which to speak authentically , but thought
that perhaps the Standard people had the
connection of cheap transportation with tur
pentine. TIiov certainly had the advantage
of tank cars loaded to the turpentine dis
tricts with carbon oil , which could carry re
turn loads of turpentine. The Standard Oil
company had boon selling LHako , Bruce &
Co. turpentine for two years at less cost de
livered in Omaha than could bo obtained
from any other consignors , and bettor facil
ities for transporting tno commodity might
explain the cheaper delivery in this city.
S. B. Hoyden , secretary of the Carter
White Load Co. , said that Messrs. Hontz ,
Rogers & Thompson had denied the rumor
of the control of the white load trust by the
Standard Oil company. The first named
gentleman Is president of the oil and lead
trusts. It was only a question of tlmo wnen
the Carter and other white load producers
outsldo of the trust would become a part of
what he termed the combination to Ucep up
paying prices. Ho thought the foundation of
the rumor in fact would moan reduced cost
In production , uud to the consumer.

ington correspondent Roy. Dr. E. C. Towno
avers that at Chauncoy M. Dcpow's request
ho grubbed m > the facts and suggestions for
the lattcr's centennial oration. Ho says ho
spent thirty-two days on the work and gave
up several plans In order to hotp Dopew. Do-
pew sent him a check for $10 } , but Towno
declares that unless h"o Is paid $ $ OJ ho will
bring suit for f 1,500.
In mi Interview Dopow says : "Tho doc
tor and I were classmates together at Yule
and have baa friendly relations and occa-
slonal corrosponConco for thirty years.
While I was thinking over my centennial
oration , I had n letter from him stating that
ho was In Washington nnd asking for
assistance. I thought ho uiiuht
help ma in gathering data that
I wanted .in the congressional library
nnd from other sources in Washington which
1 could not find In the booKs 1 had gathered.
I told htm I would compensate him for his
work. I have received nothing from him ex
cept a photograph of an ordinance of 1737
and u sketch ot the life of Richard Henry
Leo , which ho wanted published In pamphlet
form and dcsireil my judgment on. I went
on nnd wrote my oration and Informed him
it was finished , whereupon I received an ex
orbitant bill from him , ho claiming ho wivs
entitled to It for his work , although ho had
not sent uio anything because I had stopped
him with Information that my oration was
finished before ho had had time to compile
and digest his work. I refused to pay lUs
bill , though.on account of our old relations , I
wrote him I was willing to compensate him
for his mistake. Ha then wrote mp that If I
did not send him (1,51)0 , ) by last Thursday ho
would try the ease in the newspapers and
subsequently In the courts. I concluded nt
once the best thing for mo to do was to lot
aim go ahead. "
