"Tin : Unr. has got It In for mo , and Is al
ways plvlng mo the worst ot It. A matter of
personal projudlco tmi boon the canao of uiy
being everlastingly roastnd without any
provocation whatever. "
So declared Chtel Lucas to n BUB repre
sentative yesterday morning ,
" 1 got another dab this morning , " con
tinued that Irate Individual , "Now , then , to
show .you Just how the facts nro distorted
nnd how willfully and maliciously I nm mis
represented , I want you to qo with mo to Mr.
Uray'B stable , und you can hear some one
ehu brand tlm statements of that allciud ; in
terview with Mr. IJrny as false. Ho will
tell you that It waa not so , and his stable
hey , who unmo to the station after mo , can
tell you that It U altogether wrong. "
The surlbe accepted the Invitation , nnd the
two set out for Mr. IJrnv's place of business.
Thu youtm man who has charge of the
stnblu at night was Hrst called up , und \vis
subjected loan examination , questions being
propounded from thu alleged fulsu article lu
Tnc UKK. direful nnd persistent Imitilry
revealed the faut that the article was Inac
curate In thu tlirt'u following respect B : It
designated the Unions "late lit night" und
"midnight , " whllo the tlmo actually wns a
few minutes before 10 o'clock. It staled
that Mayne and his men entered from the
rear , whllo they really came in tlio front
way , and it also stated that while Mayuo
covered ono man with u gun , the other
employe slipped out to the police sta
tion , when , us a matter of fact ,
the man who xvas coveica wltu the revolver
was the one who managed to get away and
visit the station. These three potty discrep
ancies were the only ones revealed by por-
slatout imiulry.
"Now , then , " said the chief , ' 'you didn't
tell me that the sheriiT wan out of the city. "
'I say 1 dtu , " was the bold reply. "I told
you that I know ho was out in the country ,
because ho got u team at Our stnblo to go
wltn , I told the night Jailor what I wanted ,
and ho referred ino to you. 1 told you that
eight mou with ( , 'uns in their pockets had
como to the stable to guard the properly , and
that I wanted them taken nway , as they had
no business tliero. 1 told you that Mayno
had pulled a gun on ono of our men and
threatened to shoot him. I told you all
uDout what wns going on down hero , but you
sat there in your ulialr and said that the
property was in the haurts of the sheriff , and
ho could take care of it , and that you would
not interfere unless u warrant was
secured. Yon knew all ubout
the case , out you would not do
anything to Interfere , nnd 1 Had to leave you
silling thoru and como back to the stable. If
It had beou some vag who hadn't u cent you
would have started out In the patrol wagon
mighty quick , but because it was Cliff Mayno ,
who happens to own a little property , you
was afraid to interfere. "
Then followed such n roasting as would
hnvo burned a hole in 11 real estate agent's
check In ten seconds , but it didn't phase thu
chief. It colored his cheek und nock a crim
son hue , but ho stood up to the rack like a
llttlo man and tool ; tils medicine.
Mr. IJray was met upon the street corner
shortly afterward and the chief proceeded to
repeat his tale of woo. lie reiterated his
assertion that u prejudice existed against
him , and that It inspired the article in
yesterday's issue of Tnu IJr.n. At this
point Mr. 13my interrupted him. "I don't
know or euro anything about any of your
private diftlculties , or wholhor any prejudice
against you is felt by any or every member
of Tut ! UEI : force , but I do know that tlioro
is no prujiidlco or misrepresentation lu the
article to which you refer. As for that in
terview with me , it is correct in every par
ticular. I am perfectly willing to shoulder
the whole responsibility for It , for nothing
is told tliero that was not first told to Tin :
lini's representative right in my stable. "
Hero was another batch of cold comfort ,
but it seemed to bo thu only kind that could
bo scoured. Tim Uiir.'s report wa fully cor
roborated in every important particular , and
the accumulating evidence showed that the
facts were underrated Instead of being in
the least bit exaggerated.

the case of the state vs J. J. Fralney and

ant , who alleged that ho had insufficient in
formation as to the charges preferred by the

A still alarm of tire yesterday morning at

street , between First and Second , owned by
Mrs , Plainer , Hubblsh saturate , ! with oil
had been piled up In a rear hull nnd lighted ,
nud when discovered the flames had oaten a
nola through tha flooring and were making
their way up to tha second lloor by a board
partition. The Uro was discovered in tlmo
to prevent serious damugo. That it was of
Incendiary origin there can bo no question.
There Is no longer any room for doubt that
a lot , of Uro bugs uro at work in the city , and
moro tire i may bo expected unless a vigorous
effort is made to apprehend them. A heavy
sentence for arson would result beneficially.
If the rascals uro allowed to contmuo their
work , u very disastrous tire will undoubtedly
result.

Ing tbo rccout iucoudlary ijros which threat
ened to cleau out some shanties on that portion
tion of Pierce street known us "Kottou
How.1' ' Ho charges TUB 13m : aad other pa
pers with encouraging arson , bo.iauso these
numerous expressions of indignant citizens
wcro thus made public. Mr. Shoafo s.tys ho
tins charge ot certain property fronting on
Uroadwny and extending back to Pierce
street. Four small frame dwellings are sit
uated on the roar of the lots fronting on
Plerco street. Within the past tou days two
unsuccessful attempts to burn this property
have been made. Ho says ho hat paid $3,000
taxes this year ou the property , and
although this 3,000 was not paid simply on
tlio llttlo frame buildings , yet ho deems him
self entitled to protection for hU property.
The sentiment in favor of the lire depart
ment letting it burn is therefore doomed by
him exceedingly unjust. Mr. Shoafo pays
that ho supposes the excuse for this senti
ment Is that an undesirable class of tenants
have occupied the promises In the past , yet
ho docs not deem this a Justification for
arson. Ho tins had no dcslro to rent those
buildings ( which nro now vacant ) to nny tils-
reputable parties , but could 111 afford to pay
heavy taxes and have the buildings vacant ,
Ho consequently has had to accept such ten
ants as would reside In that neighborhood ,
considering the character and advertised
reputation of the street.
Without championing the reputation of the
locality , ho snys the press has so advertised
it as "Rotten Row" that it is Impossible for
property owners to ohnngo nnd put In a bet
ter class of tenants. The remedy ho sug
gests Is an appeal to the courts , rather than
to arson the serving of notices on every
tenant and property owner. This , ho be-
liovcs , will accomplish the desired end and
effect the desired result.

the Motor Conductors.
It Is asserted that there nro spotters at
work along the line ot the Electric Motor
company , and us n result , certain changes
are Doing iiiudo in conductors. The boys are
beginning to look on all passengers with
suspicion , and tlioro Is a distinct tlnklo of
the chestnut boll whenever a faro is paid.
Ono trouble Is understood to have been the
habit indulged In by souio of the conductors
ot currying their best girls without
collecting their fare. It so hap
pened that a few days ago ono
of the directors was In n car and' noticed
that the "con" passed-a certain good-looking
young lady without collecting her fare. A
report was made to the superintendent , and
In a couple of days the conductor was given
an Indefinite ticket of leavo. Some queer
stories are told of alleged spotters , and thu
schemes practiced by them to induce con
ductors to make an indiscreet step , but In all
Instances save ono they have fulled of their
PUipose. It is alleged that some of the men
have engaged quite extensively in the
habit of "knocking down , " to the loss to the
company of several hundred dollars , aud a
watch has been put on them. The company
ofllciuls refuse to talk on the subject , but It
is the solo topic * of conversation and specula
tion among the mon. Thus far the investi
gations have been short but effective , nnd
the victim's head comes down Korchug. The
principal mode of salute now used by the
employes Is to pass the foreilnger of the
right hand across the throat with a grim
smile , while the other answers with u dubi

bo several vacanclns to fill. To 1111 the va

A Serious Charge.
About a week ago a young man named
Charles Johnson , who has been employed
for nearly a year by Justice Prouty , in Gar
ner township , came to the Bluffs uud en
gaged board with Ben Applojet , u teamster ,
at No. 700 South Fourth street. Ho left
thcro Wednesday morning without his
breakfast , did not return for dinner , and in
the uttornoon was arrested in Bayllss park
by Oflicor Martin on u warrant charging
him with assault with intent to commit
rapo. Ho was taken to the station nnd
locked up , but no cliargo was placed ugala&t
his mime.
Yesterday morning Johnson was visited
by u reporter , nnd readily consented to talk
of his case. Ho stated that , on Tuesday
night , at a late hour , ho went up stairs to his
room. As ho passed the room occupied by
Mr. Appleget's daughters , the door was
standing open and a light was burning
dimly. The eirls , so he claims , receive
their comuany in this room , und sev
eral nights of late they have kept the
boarders awnko by loud talking nnd
laughing. Seeing that the bed was occupied
by ono person Johnson concluded ho would
play a Joke on the occunant. He slipped off
his shoes , entered the room , blew cut the
light , and aupronchlng the bed tappoJ the
occupant on the shonldor. There waa a
soream and Johnson iled to his room. Tliero
wns an Investigation , but no ono bothered
him that night. He left the next morning
and did not return , because ho concluded ho
change his boarding house. Ho claims to
meant no offense , but Mr. Applegct and the
girl will push the prosecution. Johnson is
twenty-live years of ago.
Ho was arraigned before Justice Hon-
dricks in the afternoon on the cliargo of at
tempted rape , and entered a plea of not
guilty , and the case was sot for hearing on
Saturday. In default of $500 bail ho was
sent to Jail.

A Voice From tlm Knnt ,
An Englishman who recently stopped
in this city on his way to the Pacific
coast , says E. G. Dunnoll in the Now
York Times , was taken by a proud citi
zen , to whom ho bore lottera of intro
duction , to the top ot of one of the largo
buildings that huvo multiplied BO fust
of late years , and the picture of Omaha's '
growth was presented with a running
history. It was a story that should have
excited wonder and applause. Prom
this housetop could bo scon the wido-
sprondlng town , crossed and rccrossad
by smoothly-paved streets. Strcot cars ,
moving without visible power , darted
hither and thither , climbing swiftly
ever the hillo and shooting off toward
the suburbs. Along the broad streets
wore lines of odillces that would bo re
garded as creditable to tlio business en
ergy , prosperity , and thrift of any city
on any continent. But it did not move
the visitor. Ho wus plainly n disap
pointed man , but ho manifested hio dis
appointment by well-bred silcnco in
stead of brutal criticism. Ho had ap
parently not heard about the rapidity
with which the city had grown , its
manufactories developed , its varied
business interests extended. He looked
nil around tlio horizon as ho was about
to descend to the street and the electric
railway. His feelings at last found
voice : ' 'Thanks , very much ; great
privilege , I assure you. It's all very
well , but what I want to know is , whore
dees the great west begin':1"
Tins English visitor , who had been
looking across the horizon for signs of
the west that his fancy pictured , was
not moro surprised at what ho saw than
are many of the American visitors who
como to Omaha nearly every day in the
year. A good many persons in the cast
who have n fair stock of general information
mation uro found to DO deficient in in
formation about the siz.o and growth
and "push" of the west. This igno
rance , the result , oftentimes of too ex
clusive interest in one's own locality , is
resented by some of the energetic men
out bore. A vigorous citizen of Omaha ,
well informed tibaut the east , tin occa
sional visitor to Washington and a
familiar figure in Now York , said to mo
to-day , in referring to the astonish
ment manifested by many visitors to
Omaha , that the' average Now York
man was not much better posted about
this city , as it is now , than the British
tourist who has come all the way over
the ocean and half way across the con
tinent , fully expecting to detect in
Omaha some signs of the waning red
man and unmistakable indications of a
struggle between barbarism and civil
ization .
Local pride in Omaha is strongand it
is justifiable. The people here have a
great deal to bo proud of. They have
made the city what it is. largo , hand
some , and prosperous , and they have
made s > o much of it so quickly that oven
rapid Now York , which is tolerably
well occupied with its own develop
ment , may bo excused for not keeping
minutely "in forme ; ! as to its swift growth
and amazing improvement. It is four
years since the writer was hero. In that
brief space a prodigious change has
been wrought. Where there were
fairly serviceable but excessively dirty
macadam roads , full of holes and
mounds , there are now fine pavements
'of the durable Sioux Falls red granite ,
or of smoother asphaltum. There are
some forty miles of these pavements ,
and by and by the mud roads that re
main , and the wooden pavements that
still answer very well , will bo replaced
by stone or asphaltum. The street
pavements that answered the purposes
of ( iOXX ( ) people in 1885 would not do for
the 100,000 to 180,000 of to-day. The
population is estimated at all tl > o way
from 1011,000 to 160,000 , and it will re
quire the report of the census enumer
ators in 1890 to suy what it is. As the
rate of increase is largo , it would not
bo matter for amazement if the larger
figures sbould bo lilled out in the cen
sus of iSOO.
They Jure reasonably proud here of
Farnain street , with its many superior
business buildings. Toward the west ,
up on the crest of the hill , whore in 1881
the blocks stood out like so many clay
banks , forty feet high , with edges
cleurly out by the hand of improvement
there now rise two buildings that would
bo notable in New York. One is the
Oinaha investment of the Now York Life
Insurance company , a great square
block of stone and brick twelve stories
in height. The other is the now homo
of the Omaha BKK. This beehive is
112 ! feet square , seven stories in height ,
with its two lower stories of granite and
the other ones of brick. Down in the
city this notable puir-of buildings would
at once arrest the eye of the visitor.
As it is , standing upon the brow of a
hill that is perhaps seventy-live foot
above the lousiness center four or five
blocks away , they have all the com
manding prominence of citadels.
A city that spends a million a year in
paving , sewering , guttering and curb
ing , and in which aonut $8,600,000 is ex
pended in all sorts of improvements ,
must have banks , . Omaha lias them ,
and they are evidently prosperous.
Its banks nro nil housed in
the most stately modern stylo.
Mr. A. U. Wyman , formerly
United States treasurer , now connected
with the Omaha Loan and Trust com
pany , tolls mo that the investments
made in building'by ' the hanking con
cerns are all admirable , that they are
in the main the expression of a need ,
not the in Hating of U "boom. "
Omaha does not regret its own enter
prise. Enterprisesmid , { her. While it
lias been supplying the needs of the
stcadily-incrcasiigi ) , population to the
west of it , it has not begrudged the
money needed 'for improvements. In
188t ; , when it began the system of im
provements that is ; now beinfr carried
out , its yearly .real estate transactions
reached $1.000,000. Two years later they
wore $0,000,000 in the course of twelve
months. Population has como in from
the eiibt and boutli , and to some extent
from abroad. No one regrets that tlio
foreign stream does not predominate.
What there is hero of European origin
is good , but the native stock is abund
ant and vigorous.
A city that has 300 persons doing a
jobbing trade that foots up $00,000,000
or $70,000.000 , a year , and scores of men
engaged in large cattle , railroad trans
portation , gruelling and olhor enter
prises , must have many rich men.
Omaha has them by the score. Some
of them , moot of thorn , in fact , nro "old
settlers , " although the oldebt settler
has lived hero only about thirty-live
yours. The mormons who crossed the
'
'Missouri to make u settlement just
north of the present Omaha , when the
Indian was still disputing the right of
the pioneer to hunt or fish upon his
soil or to build upon the hunting
grounds of his fathers , have no share in
Omaha's development. They were
crowded out long ago. nnd as you rldo
along St , Mary's avenue or South Tenth
street and look nt the majestic stone
residences , the detached villas , the
cozy frame and brick cottages , with
lawns of varying acreage and diversi
fied beauty , it is scarcely more difllcult
to believe the Ptory of Jack the Giant
Killer than it is to believe the stories
of the lives of the men who dwell in
these pretty homes. "Self-made" mon
nro the rule , and not the exception.
Old fogies are as hard to find as the ex
tinct auk.
SOMUISI.S OF THIS SOUTIIWKHT.
Senator IngnllH In an Address Kulo-
Klsn f Tanner.
AttKANSAS Cirr , KnnB. , Sept. 12. The
formal opening of the annual reunion of old
soldiers of the southwest occurred to-day ut
Camp Lnaan. On the platform were seated
Governor Humphrey of Kansas , Governor
Hovoy of Indiana , Senator In calls , ex-Gov-
ornor Anthotiv of Kansas. President Wil
son , of the Soldtor'a association , welcomed
the visitors and Governor Humphrey ex
tended n welcome to the veterans on behalf
of the statn of Kansas.
Souator Ingalls was given an ovation when
ho was introduced and arose to spsak. In
the course of hi * remarks ho said i
"The wealth of this nation increases
$120,000 with every tici : of the watch , and
the soldier earned it all. Without hnn.thero
would hnvu been no treasury , nu nation , aud
ho Is entitled to his percentage of it. "
There were just thrco things that ought to
be done , said the senator.
" 1. The limitations oa pensions ought to
be removed.
"U. The disability pension bill ought to become -
come a law.
" . ' ! . Every soldier who received an honor
able alscbanto ought also to receive a pen
sion. "
These were the results that Commissioner
Tanner had sought to attain in his adminis
tration of the ofllco of the commissioner or
pensions , said the speaker , and Ingalls hon
ored him for his hign desires and bravo ef
forts in bolinlf of the veteran soldier.
"Tho only fault ! have to find with Tanner , "
ho continued , ' -Is that ho Old not hivvo two
feet while ho was in ofllco , so that ho could
huvo made moro rapid progress in the attain
ment of his policy. "
Several public camp-flrc3 were hold this
evening , at which noiod speakers uiado ad

HIE V. M. C. A. CONVENTION.
It Will Be a Gathering of Nohntskn's
ItoprcHcnintivo Men.
Omaha is some of these days going to earn
the title of "Tho City of Conventions. " Not
long ngo she entertained the national Pres
bytery , the annual Lutheran synod , and the
national convention of charities and correc
tions , each of which was attended by several
hundred delegates , including men of na
tional reputation. She has secured the next
general conference of the Methodist Epis
copal church , and now comes the state
convention of the Nebraska Young Men's
Christian association , to be held October 24
to 25' , inclusive , which will bring together
several hundred from among the better citi
zens of the state/- Omaha has heretofore
cared for these gatherings handsomely , and
it is fair to presume the same will bo done
in this case. From moro standpoints than
one it behooves her to do so. These dele
gates , to the number of about four hundred ,
as oxposted , will come principally from the
youncer blood of the state , representing all
the different marts of trade and lines of pro
fessions und occupations , and will thus bo
decidedly representative. Tney arc young
men in whom is to be found n great deal of
the push and energy of the typical
westerner , combined with earnest Christian
zeal , a combination of principles and charac
ter which is to have much to do with the
much to bo desired and worthy end of keep
ing practical Christianity abreast of the rapid
advance of this great west in other direc
tions.
The design of these annual conventions is
to bring into face to face discussion
all the different and very numerous
phases of the association work ; to
thereby reach definite conclusions und to
instill In every delegate a desire , together
with a feeling of personal obligation , to put
into practice in nis local ussoc.ation the
principles and truth ) thus brought effect
ively to his attention.
Tho-assoclation , in its four-sided arch
itecture , will bo considered , viz. , the phy
sical , spiritual , mental and social. Men of
moro than local prominence from different
parts of the country will bo present ana
lead in many of the discussions ; among
them , U. C. Mono , of New York city , general -
oral secretary of the international committee ,
Y. M. C. A. , of tboUnltod States and Canada ;
Mr. W. E. Lewis , of Milwaukee , state secre
tary of Wisconsin , and several others yet to
bo heard from. An earnest effort is being
made to secure the attendance of a public
man of national reputation of the east , whoso
presence alone would draw more of an
audience than cither ono largo concert hall
or the exposition hall would accommodate.
The different departments of the work will
bo discussed by the visitor from abroad and
the delegates best able to intelligently han
dle them by virtue of special and long ox-
uerlence in their particular lines , and
the papers that will bo read and
the speeches that will bo delivered ,
especially during the evening sessions , will
be as interesting and entertaining to the
visitors as they will bo to valuable to the
delegates and thorfo oflicmlly connected with
the absociallon. Very great stress will bo
placed upon the commercial travelers , us a
class of energetic , pushing follows , who
would not only bo greatly benefited by avail
ing themselves of the advantages offered by
a membership especially provided for them by
the inte'rnatioiiull committee , and which can
bo issued by local associations , but who
would also bo of great value to the assocla-
tlon as individual aids in extending ,
its salient influences all over the country
even into the moro remote sections.
The association work In every detail will
bo thoroughly and vigorously handled , and
considering the practical and interesting nn-
turo of the subjects and the ability and
prominence of many of the speakers , every
session of this convention , whether in the
daytuno or evening , and whether in the as
sociation hull or the cxiiositlon hall , will bo
made interesting to the otherwise most disin
terested resident fortuuato enough to gum
admission ,
The Young Men's ' Christian association ,
not many years ago finding Its conception in
the mind of George W. Williams , of London ,
Eng. , is no longer an experiment. That It Is
no longer a theory to bo exploded by u prac
tical test has long since been proven , al
though the great west has only recently
boon satisfied of this truth. The letters "Y.
M. C. A. " have become a household sign in
all the civilized countries of the world , and
by the non-roll ious us well as the religious ;
by the non-evangelical as well as the ovan-
gcllcal ; by the richer class as well as by the
peeler ; by men of the ripest Judgment , purest
minds and strongest Intellectuality ; by the
professional man ; uy the business man ; oy
the laboring man , and by everybody
awulio to the advancement of this ago the
organization U becoming more and more reu-
ognizod as a powerful factor for good , und
instead of pleading , us formerly , for admis
sion , the various cities and towns of the
country are soliciting Its corning and estab
lishment within their walls.
Considering all these things , Omaha can
'and will extend a hearty welcome and ro-
celvo iho convention with open arms , enter
tain it royally and sustain her woll-canied
reputation for true hospitality.
