Into tlio accounts of tlio internal rovcniio oftleo nt this place , by Spoclnl Agent SpauJInjr , of the treasury department , apparently conllrm the reports that have been current for some llinoof n sliortnsp In the accounts of Mr John Cullioun , the deputy collocUir , anil ot n gcnurully bad condition of affairs In. the ot- flce. According to Mr. Spauldlnft's report a. BliortnRO had Been discovered In n number of accounts. The amount of mono ; ' Involved has always boon inado Rood by Mr. Calhoun sonlor , but -ulscrepiuiclcs * UU exist on. the books" , which are required to show the amount of stamps sold , and the nutnes and midroxscft of the purchasers. When Mr. Peters assumed control of the oftlco ho receipted for the stamps on hand nnd these were checked by Mr. Spanldlng and found to bo correct. It Is alleged tlmt Mr. Calhoun's shortage will amount to sotno- thlnf ? ovcr2KO ( , of wnluh sum nuout 51,000 has been paid already by the older Culhoun Youtifj Calhoun had full charge ot the ofllcc , nnd , according to reports , kept the accounts in a very loose mannor. It Is stated that the "shortauo was occasioned by the appropria tion of money sent to the department for llcunsc.s from various revenue payers In the stuto. Under the revenue regulations each brewery with n capacity of f 00 barrels is re quired to pay $50 a year rovunuo tax and $100 a year for any inornaso over this amount , A number of brewers who , in creased the capacity of tholr establishments during Mr. Calhoun's administration , for warded the additional $51) ) required but huvo failed to receive the- necessary license. A number of retail liquor dealers also claim to have sent money to the department for which no licenses have been returned. It is also alleged that younr ? Calhoun pocketed something over $300 duo deputies of the ofllco. This sum was also made oed by the senior Calhoun. XounK Caihoun's recent trip to Kentucky , was for the purpose , as ho confessed to Mr. Spauldlng , of inducing if possible a former employe of the department to return - turn a . purt of the misappropriated funds which ho is said to have received. The cx-ofllcml refused absolutely to dlsporKo.nnu youiiK Calhoun returned homo and faced the matter alono. The senior Calhoun has , become security for his son until nn examination of his ac counts can bo mudo by the department at Washington. In the meantime , young Cal houn Is in the ofllco assisting Major Dennis , Mr. 1'ctws' now deputy , in the work of checking un his accounts. Mr. Culhoun , Jr. , was scon by n reporter , and in rcspotisoto a iuory | concerning the al leged shortage in his accounts , said : "Tlioro Is no truth in the report whatever. Everything is all right , as an investigation will prove. It's all rictit , " and then ho went on nssiatiug Major Dennis in checking u col umn , of llgurcs. Collector Peters said ho. was surprised at thb report , as Mr. Suauldlng had given him no intimation that a sliortago had boon dis covered ; In fact had led him to think that the accounts were all right. "I am not af- foctudb.v the mutter. " said Mr. Peters , "and do uot wish to get mixed up with it at all. " KriUcrnnl Nnw.

AVorlc on the viaduct at South Omaha which was knocked down by an engine Thursday will bo delayed about three weeks , as nearly all of the Iron work will have to bo sent buck to the shops. The City engiucur estimates the damaga at about 1,800. City Knpineor J. 13. Morris thinks the switch train was not run with proper caution , but it is impossible for any ono not seeing It to toll the cause of the accident. "My theory , nnd'only a theory , is that ono of the cars caught ihu temporary support post close to the track and starting . it , the guy rope was slackened and the rope catching ou the refrigerator car the two together pulled the underpinning and viaduct down. The wholu lloor and ttoutli side truss had been swung , and by Friday night would probably have been safo. There may have beun negligence by both parties. F. P. Housh , who has charge of the via duct work , Buys that ono ot the support posts wns so close that the cars rubbed it ia passing , but trains had beou coin/ * jiast for a month , and if the car doors had been kept closed tlio accident would not hrwo occurred. The train was running very last for thnt place. H. Van Aulten , driving S.V. . Damns' team , who had Just fastened a guy rope at the driveway to Swltt & Company's packing houses , says that the car door was open , nnd when ho saw the train pulling out faster than ho hail over scon it during the nlno days ha had boon working there , ho fcarud an accident. HU team start- lug , he was attracted away when tne car atruck thu support post , loosening the guy line , which caught on 0110 of Swift's refrig erator cars and all carne down. If ton door of the Swift car hail bean closed the uccidout would not have happened. J. C. Callahau , foreman of switch cro\vNo. _ a , who Is corroborated by all the tram men , says that the train had just started up , woa running only thrco or four miles an hour , that the posts were sot so close to the trauk that the passing cura would rub , nluidst setting the timber ou 11 ro and that a notch had to bo cut in ouo of the posts to allow the trains to pass , aad the Increasing weight ou tuu weakened post caused it to bond causing tlio accident. Only the day bafora the accident City Engineer Menus notilloti the bridge mem thattho support posts were too close and should ho removed. Mrs. E. Slattcry , of Delhi , La. , says her eon , 14 years of ago.had n dreadful time with ulcers , noros and blotches which followed chicken pox.

RMr. Klurstcad stated to a reporter yester day that ho had been tendered a reappointment - pointment as a member of the board of pub- lie workv by tha mayor ana that ho would aocopt the offer. "How about Mr. Droatch's promise to ap point another in your pineal" "Those reports are gotten np by Mr. Broateh's enemies , who wish to make it ap pear that ho promises inoro than one person tlio sntno position. The only ono ho prom ised to appoint in my place was Mr. Alex ander and that was conditional on my not wanting the place longer. I personally askbd him to do so , ad Mr. Alexander was my friend and a good man for the placu. " "How did you coma to change your mind about retiring from the board 1" "During the post week I have boon Impor tuned by a great many business men to re main. They claim that It requires n year's experience to become conversant with the workings of the board ; that I a in familiar with the work ; that I have worked In har mony with tbo other members and should lay.

The bank was organized in September , S85 , succeeding the old Exchange banij of Sidney. The paid-up capital then was $10- )00 , and it has never bcoix Increased. "Tho bank , " said a tluancial authority , "was swiuglng liabilities ' of STO.O.X ) upon a capital of about SfiXJO ( all told. Up to last year , the bank had upon deposit the state and county Tunus , amounting to $ .JttX)0 ) , and this year > st this and there bun boon a general falling on" In the business of the institution owing : o the establishment there of the Merchants' uank , with n capital stock of SoO.OOO. This bank cut into the State bank iu a very bad nanuor , enjoying tuo city nud county funds ivhich gave it the prestige which its older rival had lost. " It Is considered possible that thcso facts .vltli the oilier that in a fuw days the capital stock would have to beou increased to Sol- ) 000 , had the depressing effect upon Morgan's mind which lead to his stiicido.

" The Last Alarm. The funeral of I. W.

The Hov. G. W. Crofts conducted the exercises. The body was taken from tho. residence , 12ii Uunton street , nt a o'clock and convoyed with the mourners to the church. The processjon from the residence to the church was very largo , and many of the friends carried beautiful tlorul offerings. The casket rested Immediately beneath a floral bed wrought of white tlowors with a few sprays of ferns. A large white rose. , formed the clapper , while a line of dark- colored buds aptly represented a fracture In the side running from the edge to the crown. Around the boll In the shape of u wreath were clusters of heliotrope wrought into letters forming the sentence , "Tho Last Alarm. " It was a beautiful and significant offering and was designed and executed by Mrs. Cooper's friends. On the casket were un anchor and pillowromposod of tube and tea roses , sweet ellssaui and white verbenas. On the whitu background of the pillow was wrought In rich purple heliotrope the words , "Our ITutner. " Those ( lowers were from , the immediate friends and neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. Coopor. The llreiucn prevented , some beautiful nnd appropriate designs. When the casket was brought from the residence Wall. McFaddcn's drum corps softly beat the long roll until it was placed in the hearse. The pall hoarcrs were John Madden , Robert , Graham , James Hradloy , Charles Nicholson , James O'Ncil and Charles Mitchell. As the cortege passed thu Central engine house boll began to toll , and continued solemnly until Its brazen lips had tolled out the thirty-nino years the dead llreman had lived. At the church the services were very im pressive. The musicvansUted of an organ voluntary by Prof. .DuNonnandio and two solos by Frank Wcscott. Thu remarks by Mr. Crofts were oonutiful and appropriate , and referred to the IcsJohs to bo drawn from the fireman's lifo , hlsfovor-roadlness to respond - spend to the calls of duty his bravery that made him face dcathjin its worst forms , and face it unflinchingly ; and his sacrilices for thu good of others , that impelled him un falteringly to put all'of his own interests aside for tuo time and sacrillca his lifo if necessary to save the li.yes and property of olhors. The concluslon.of nls remarks was a very beautiful eulogy'upon ' tlio character nnd Integrity of the deceased. The church was well lilled , evcr.v 'fireman being present who could get off duty.r The intormeut was inado in Fairviow. . It did not scorn to bo known that Mr. Cooper was a veteran soldier as well as flro- inau.or the G. A.

Ho unlisted in the Fourteenth Ohio artillery at Columbus wncn eleven years old as powder' boy , under the name of lion Arnold , and was afterwords transferred to the navy , whore ho served until the close of the war. OMAHA'S FliDKUAti BUILDING. No Chnnuc to Kc in Work on It This Season. WASHINGTON , Juno28. | Specal ! Telegram to THIS HEK.J It will bo some time before the United States authorities secure title to the federal building site in Omaha. Until that is done very little work can bo per formed by the suDorvisiug architect toward perfecting the plans for the proposed build ing. As soon as the district attorney makes his report as to the validity of the tltlu to the block which it is proposed to purchase , the money will bo paid over aad the deeds recorded in favor of the government. Then work upon the plans will begin. This will occupy a considerable period of time , possibly several months , and It is hardly likely at the present writing that thov will bo so far advanced as to warrant beginning work upon the building during the present season. It is barely possible , however - over , that contracts for the excavation maybe bo awarded before the winter sets in , but this is all , at the most , ' that can bo expected this summer. Supervising Architect Windrlm has not given the subject of the character of the building any consideration ns yet , and uo idea can bo secured as to his violva on the subject from any of his pre vious worl ; , ns up to the present time no plans have been perfected since ho was in ducted into ofllco. The secretary , however , has oxuresscd himself on more than one oc casion in favor of solidsubstantial buildings , and regards the old style of foiloral building architecture us far moro imposing and ap propriate for government work than any of the modern ideas which have resulted iu such frightful botches in several cities ol the United States. If Mr. Wlndom's idea Is car ried out it is probable that Omaha will have n building something on tlio order of the treasury building in Washington instead of a compilation of a dozen different styles , such ns previous supervising architects have suc ceeded iu putting together.
