Judge Carson jestordny ordered the Issuance -
anco of a temporary writ of Injunction , re
straining J. F , Stewart , president of the
Omaha & Council Bluffs railway and uridgo
company , rrom Issuing any more free passes
over that line or bridge The writ was
uskod for by Thomas J , Kvans , ono of tbo
directors , and the case Is ontitlcd T. J.
Bvnns vs John T. Stewart , Gcnrgo V.
Wright , J. II Millard , Guy C. Uarton , N.
W. Wells , directors of the Omaha and
Council Bluffs rnllway company , John T.
Stewart , president of said company , and C.
II Heynolds , superintendent of' said com
] iany , and thu Omal.n & Council Bluffs rail
way and brldiro company The plaintiff
flics his petition In equity in behalf of him
self as astoeklioldor , nnd in behalf of all
other stockholders who may como in nnd
contribute to the expenses of said suit
After stating that the corporation Is duly
Incorporated under the laws of Iowa and
Nebraska , und giving a list of its uuthorl/cd
powers , tlio petition sets forth that the cap
ital stock consists of 7,500 shuros valued at
S1U0 per share , all of which shnros
have been Issued and are now held
by mouibnrs ot tbo company
Thnt the pluintifT is the holder of 750 shares
in I no capital stock , which nro worth in the
market more than their par value The
plulutlfC alleges that John T. Stewart , ns
president of said toad , has been and is now
cngagod in issuing free passes for the year
ISI'0 ' to various nnd dlvors poisons , some of
said pusses running to p.uticulnr individuals
named tlioreln , others running to such indi
viduals and their families , nnd others
running to such individuals and party "
That said passes nro intended to glvo und
will glvo free transportation over the said
railway and biidgo to the patties named
therein mid others Included in the terms
used therein
Plaintiff further stntcs that the issuancoof
free passes as aforesaid has not been author
ized by the afoiesukl board of directors ;
that so many of said free passes as have al
ready been Issued for the year 18U0 by said
Stewart have been Issued without tne con
sent or nulhoilty of a majority of the
stdckholdeis , und especially of this
plaintiff and without any authority for said
Stewart to do so derived from the articles
of Incorporation or bylaws of snid company ,
and aic lu direct violation of the duties ' and
obligations of Ins ofllcu
Plulntiil tuither alleges that a largo num
ber of passes lor the year 1830 which had
already ueen Issued bv Stewart , nnd n largo
number or passes which it is aliened that
Stewart will issue unless restrained by a
writ of injunction , and what are termed exchange
change passes , being issued to officers ,
directors and employes of railway , express
aud telegraph companies , in exchange for
similar free passes , for the year lS'JO , to be
issued by said companies and the officers
thereof to the said John F. Stownrt , 'Guv C.
Barton and N. W. Wells , nnd that the re
ceipt of these passes by the dofondnnts
operates and is intended to operate to their
oxcluslvo gam nnd prollt , and thnt the com
pany receives no pecuniary bonetlt or adva-
tago whatever from tlio issuance by Stownrt
ol such pasbos over the line of Itallwny &
Bridge company for the year 1800.
That the defendants , Guy C. Barton ,
vice-president , and N. W. Wells , second
vice-president , for the purpose of gain to
themselves , are colluding with said Stownrt
in the issuance of free passes , in receiving
for themselves individually all bcnolli nnd
advantage derived , from such passes Plain
tiff further alleges that the passes Issued for
the year 1SS9 cost the company on a business
basis a sum equal to $7,600 , and this would
bo largely Increased in 1S90. That the
passes to a nerbOn and party have brought
ever the bridge hack loads of pcoplo ( both
public and private ) , und huvo'caused to bo
transported in the cars of said company
parts of car loads free
That the issuancoof free passes encour
ages fraud against snid company ; that ,
among other ways in which fraud is prac
ticed , conductors will pass persona nnd
friends of theirs who have no passes what
ever , pretending to call off their pass num
bers or by getting from them fictitious pass
number * , nnd by pretending to note them
down in u book carried by them for the pur
pose of noting down the numbers of genuine
lreo passes Issued by said company , in tills
way avoldinc detection and depriving said
company of Its regular faro and toll
That the issuance of said pas30s prevents
the company from protecting itself from the
imposition and fraud which is thus uponod
up to conductors nnd those persons in chnrgo
of tlio bridge , whoso duty it is to collect
fares , by the way in which they can , without
detection , pass their own friends nnd ac
quaintances free of chnrgo Plaintiff nlloges
that it opens the door to fraud aud dishon
esty , creates a laxity of discipline over em
ployes , U gn inducement to tholr dishonesty
nnd prompts them to usurp nnd exercise the
power of tbomsolvcs passing persons free of
clmrtre
That the issuance of passes prevents the
successful opniutlon of a largo portion of the
line by means ot the cash ooxos and ono
man to ti cur
That the defendants are in favor of issuing
passes that they may recolvo the personal
gain , and will pass a resolution authorizing
the issuance of passes unless restrained by
un order of tlio court
The petition is a rather lengthy document ,
und Is signed by T. J. Kvans and his utter
novs , Sapp & Pubov
Mr Kvnns was seen yesterday afternoon
and talked very freely regnrdlng the matter
Said ho : "I am compelled to tuKo this step
to protect myself Nearly six hundred
passes have boon Issued , and tbo company
gets no bonollt from thorn Stewart is issu
ing passes nnd gets the boncflt personally ,
nnd I ilon't propose to stand it , as a part of
the cost comes out ot my pocket I just
drove over from Omaha , and I saw tbo
Pacific hotel company's team with hnlf u
dozen mon comlngovor the bndco They all
came on pass U10 , ana I would like to know
why they are untitled to a pass The com
pany gets no bonollt from it , but those
directors and the prcsidont get tholr meals
free at hotels along tbo line and I have to
pay 75 cunts for in I no Tbo express com
panics are Ilxed the sumo way Some of the
offices ] In Omaha have half a dozen
employes who rcsido on this sldo , and
they all ride back and forth on passes ,
but why It Is I cant explain
It is the same way with the telegraph com
panies Stownrt , Burton and Wells have
telegraph passes , but I have to pay for all
my msssages , aud I have to help pay for the
passes which mo Issued to the ofllcors and
employes of the tolegrnph companies
Passes uro Issued to merchants and business
men , for which the company gets no return
A few hours ago the two daughters of a
leading Omaha merchant rode down to the
bridge ou their tricycles and then tool : a'
motor and came ever to this side on a pass
After making u short call here tboy returned
the same way , taking with them a lady and
gentleman , all riding on that pass , A few
days ago ono of the most notorious prosti
tutes that over lived In this citj was on n
motor train bound for Omaha The conduc
tor came along und inquired the number ot
her pass , She roplicd 'UH , ' and that was nil
there was to It , A gontlemau who overhoanl
it , and know who tno creuturo was came to
uiu aud inquired if it was possible thut
so aud so had a pass over the line
Now , I dent think she had a pass , for I
hardly think that Stewart would dura to
issue her ono , hut Bho rode just the sumo
without paying her faro , which shows how
this pass system Is being abused
Mrs ( meaning a well known so
ciety lady of tbo Blufts ) has taken ever half
u car loud of pcoplo ever tbo river on a pass
and she bus on Innumerable ) occasions taken
several friends along , There Is no reason
why she should have a pass Another lady
boarded a car thu other day and soon after
ward four other ladles entered tbo car The
conductor came along to collect ttelr feres
and the first passenger told them that they
must not pay tholr faro as she had a puss for
= S hHhmhhh-M
the whole party , Thov tvero not In the party ,
but they wcro acquaintances who happened
to board the train to go to Omaha nnd wcro
not traveling with her Thnt Is the way
they work It nnd It Is why I kick I .vns the
ono who first propssed Issuing passes
to the nowspapnr men und there
was some objection to granting them ,
for this whdlcsalo system did not then obtain
Barton then wnntcd to Issue exchange passes
to the tnilronds , and so the thing has crown ,
There nro cortnln newspaper men who have
passes for themselves and party , anil this Is
very unjust to the rest of you , who are passed
Bingly , The resolution wns to issue passes
only to the liowsgnthcrcr.s , but this has been
enlarged upon to extend in some cases to the
proprietors of the papers , wlrich Is not ns It
should bi Tho'rolutivcs nnd personal frlonds
of the defendants in this Injunction suit have
secured nil the transportation they wanted ,
whllo others wcro loft out In tlio cold
Now , on my road nt Ottawn , 111. . I refuse
to glvo passes I so stated when 1 was build
ing tlio road , but I did not lack for hcurty
encouragement on that account I have put
on a six mlnuto service , and have but ono
man on n car Tlio ensh box takes the placa
of the conductor There nro no pusses mid
everybody pays bis faro I In
structed the men that tcporters ,
policemen und mail carriers can
ride on the front platform , but no others nro
nlloived , and when they enter the car or
ride on the rear platform they are expected
to pal the sumo as anyone else , I soil
twonty-llvo tlekots for fl , and school ctilkl-
rcn got fifty tickets for $1 , and there is a
great do.il of travel over tbo line Wo
should dispense with the conductors on our
Main street lluo It would make u saving of
tfl,300 n year , and this ntnount expended in
faster service would bring n great Increase
of proUt to the company But , this enn't bo
done with this wholesale pass system Of
course I will win my case Tlioro Isn't n
court nnywhoro that would not ncutiowlcdgo
my right to say how my tnonev shall bo
spent , und I propose to see that there is no
moro ot this issuing company passes for the
benefit of individual parties The company
was organized to innlto money nnd it is my
intention to help pay for securing favors for
parties who nro far moro able to fool the
bills than I am "

SHOES SHINED BY STEAM
CloverScIieino Devised by Two Ebony
Gentlcmon of Now York
The day has long since , pone by when
a rami , to have his shoes mndo thinga
of refulgent beauty , was forced , to loan
agaiust a fence or balance himself on
ono foot and have a youth of tender
years prod his bunions with a well
worn brush Of late the sliineo ro-
doses in a luxurious armchair in a room
cooled by rovolvlng fans in Biuniiior
anil lieatod by a rotund whitewashed
steve in winter , and has a man of ma
ture yours and good judgment coax his
boots into ebony loveliness with an
oiled cloth and u well ItoDt , long haired
brush •
The qunlity of the shine itself has
wonderfully improved also The un-
attoctod and funeral blnck polish that
faded generally to a pile and mottled
gray tint before the boots it covered
had moved two blocks away has boon
succeeded by a glittering and attractive
ebony luster that lasts sometimes for
two days It would scorn as if in this
line of trade improvement could no
further go , ' ' says the Now York Times ,
but an oiitorprising firm of colored gentlemen -
tlomon in Sixth avenue wont ono
bettor a few days ago when they flung
> to the winds iu front of their parlor a
sign reading :
• SHOES SHINED BY STEAM •
• "Wiiilc You Wait " •
The process of shining now occupies
but a ininuto nil told , andnshino is put
on ones shoos that is mirror-like in its
refulgence and almost everlasting in its
olTocts
The motive power comes from the
trenches of a steam-heating company
and the mechanism that controls tlio
brushes is nickol-plutod and glittering
to a degree The blacking still has to
bo applied to the shoes by hand , but the
owner of the establishment is formulat
ing a scheme that will roudur that act
possible by steam power also

Detroit MuIds Who Oirry ltovolvcrs
Jro3poctublo \ apponiing lady walkotl
into the olllco ot Chlof of Police Pitt-
man of Detroit and inquired :
Can I have a pornnt to carry a
pistolV"
"No , madnm , you cannot , " atisworcd
General Plttman , elevating his eye
hrowij In surprlso "It is not in my power
tojglvo you ono "
But I will bo arrested If I carry one
without a pormlt.and it is necessary to
protect myself with in dangerous parts
of the city at late hours "
"If you are a law-abiding cltl/.on and
only curry a pistol in cuso of being mo
lested , the law will not interfere with
you , " answered the chlof ; but if you
show the weapon to your frlonds on the
Btroot or allow un olllcor to know that
you carry it you will bo arrested This
is the llrst tlmo I have ever boon uskod
for ii permit by a woman , "
As the lady loft the olllco she remark
ed to n Free Press reporter :
"I shall carry u pistol when I go Into
dangerous pnrU of the city or am out
nlouo at late hours Nearly half the
teachers of Dolroit carry olthor stil
ettos cr toy pistols I know model young
ladles who never go out without a.

ALU HIS OWN FAULT
There Seems to TCn n Great Moral I.os-
Hnn In This 8tory.
It wns agreed by ovorybotly In the car
that she was the handsomest woninti
they ever saw says the Now York Sun ,
and the man in the seat with her prob-
nbly noticed the sly glanqca anil heard
some of the whispered exclamations
Ho bcciuno restless and iinctt'iv and by
and by ho got up and walked back to
where a couple of dvuniiners s > at and
snid :
"Boy1 ? , she's my wife "
Yes ! " responded ono
"I ullow that she's homely null to
scare it hungry boar out of si hog pen ,
but its all my fault "
"Indecdt"
And Ill ' toll you the story , because
there Is a great moral lesson In it < Wo
was engngod to bo married 1 took her
into Syracuse ton Fourth of July Tlioro
she mot IJI11 Prime , an old beau of hors ,
nnd to make mo jealous , as some gals
will , you know , she agreed to ride homo
with him It hit mo hard , as you limy
believe , and so I went out into the lu-
blo unit drove tacks into Hills harness
When they enmu to start out the horse
run away Bill jumped out and didn't
got a scratch , but Mary staid still till
the buggy struck a bridge and was all
smashed up She lost twelve tooth.had
her nose broken , her mouth torn out at
the eotmcr , an eye cocked up , her nose
turned in , her tongno bit half iu two ,
and the color of lu > r hair turned to the
brindle you now see before you "
' 1 sco the moral lesson "
Not ylt youdont That came in
when I tiiod to give her the tdiakc and
crawl out of the marriage Her old dttd
put on the screws and L had to come to
tlmo or lese my farm , and so 1 walked
chalk The great moral lesson is , never
got mad at your best gal If you do got
mad , dent make a ftilo of yourself
Thnt's nil , boys , aud I bono the warn
ing will sink deep into ycr hearts "

A Dnubla Bit
Arizona Kicker ( Detroit Free Press ) :
Last week certain folks who wanted to
see us downed , wori chuckling bocnuso
wo were not invited to the grand
autumn soiree given by Mrs .ludgo
Gildorsloo of Jackass Heights It was
a social snub ou us , wo'fl admit , but the
aforesaid chuckling has cetuod It
broke short olt day before yesterday
when the sheriff arrived from Omaha
and tupned the judge on the shoulder
and uskod him how the business of cow
stealing got along
Wove had the biography of the judge
in hand for some montns He robbed it
nostolllco in Illinois , stole hogs in Iowa
and embezzled from a toll bridge in In-
dianu Ou the top of that ho stole cows
in Nebraska , und when his wife made
cold mutton of usa wont down to the
telegraph olllco and dispatched the
shorill to como on Wo think wo are
about oven It is not the policy of this
paper , as wo have often stated , to deplete
our population by giving away our
citizens , but no ono must try anv mon
koy-shiues with us Wo are hero to
stay
Didn't C.ii'O for the Trunk
I stumbled over an old-fashioned hair
trunk us I jumped on the front platform
of a crowded horse car In Moriifcanin
the other afternoon , sajs the Now
York Star A spruce looking young
dude was using it as a foot rest , and
when the conductor came out to collect
fares ho told the young man that he
wanted an extra fare for currying tbo
trunk
"I've paid my faro and that's all you
got from mo , " said the dude
All right , " snarled the conductor ;
then off it goes , " and n moment lutor
ho had bundled it off into the roadway
A couple of blocks further on the con
ductor , who had been glowering at tbo
dude all the way , said : "I told you I'd
throw It off , und I did : sea "
"What's that to mo ? , " snid the young
follow , quietly "It Isn't my trunk "
While the conductor wns running
back after the trunk the dade stepped
off the car , and , with the remark
served him right for thinking I'd ' own
such a looking thing , " disappeared iu
the gathering gloom
