A MOST PAINFUL CALAMITY I
The country will bo profoundly
shocked by the fonrful calamity that
hns bcfallon General Tracy , secrolary
ot the navy , in the destruction ot his
homo in Washington by tire , the death
of Mrs Tracy from stiffocntlon , nnd the
burning ) , lo death of a young daughter
of the socrotnry and lior maidwhIlo
General Tracy himself , his marth
rlcd , daughter and a grandTt
dnughtor , narrowly cscapod a like
torrlblo fate The occurrence of
the flro at an early hour in the morn
ing , when nil in the house were sloopvli
m g and the summons of relief was noccspo
sarily tardy , plncod the house and Its
occupants at the mercy of the
flames , nnd those who perished were
cut oft from all help or roller
• when ! they discovered their awful peril ,
The fact that Secretary Tracy was
rescued In an unconscious condition
suggests that these who vcro burned
may hnvo test consciousness before fallcl
ing victims to the llamcs , and thus dlod
without oxporloncing the torture of
, .
burning It is spmo relief to the heartsn
sickening contemplation ot the fearful
calamity to think that this was
probably the case that the two who
perished in the flames had given up
lifo or were beyond pain before the flro
reached them
The sympathy of the cntlro country
will bo dcoply stirred by this calamity ,
the ] saddest in the history of the natl
tional ) capitnl Mrs Tracy was a lady
ol rare accomplishments , and herself
and daughter were among the m03t
honored and favored In Washington
.
society < Their death under such doti
plorablo circumstances must touch
ovcry heart with a feeling of slncoro
sorrow ( Within a brief titno there has
.
been nn unusual frequonoy of appeals to
popular l sympathy for these high In
public station The death of a sister of
Mrs . Harrison , of Walker Blalno , ot
Mrs Colonel Copplngcr , eldest dnughh
tor ot Secretary Blalno , and the fearful
calamity to the family of Secretary
Tracy , make a record of aflltction dur11

HELP DAKOTA
The most trustworthy advices from
South Dakota leave no doubt that there
Is 1 a great deal of destitution there ,
Making every allowance for possible
exaggerated statements of newspaper
correspondents on the ono hand and for
the misrepresentations of speculators
andothorintorcsted partioson the other
hand I , there can bo no question that the
condition of a considerable number of
J
farmers in several , of the counties of the 1
now state that sulTorod most from
drought is ono of great hardship and
privation , aud that the demand for re-
lief ! of these people is urgent Tno distress -
tress J Is by no moans general It is con
fined to a comparatively small portion >
of the state , while elsewhere the peopla 1
have enough with which to got along
comfortably Hut as a whole the people
of South Dakota are not at present
prosperous ] , and however well disposed I
tonmko 1 provision for these who need I
relief i do not foci able to do so to
the 1 extent required At least this
would seem Xo bo the case from
the i fact that the assurances some time
ago ' given that the people of South D.i-
ko ] ta could take care of their own destls
tute < have not been carried out Tnero is
consequently , nn appeal for outside
help , and whlld it has'beon to a modor-
ate extent responded to , a great deal I
more than has been provided will be
necessary to carry the destltuto farmers
of South Dakota over to the tlmo when
they can help themselves
Omaha has a duty to perform in thi s
matter , as well upon the general score
ot humanity as from a nolghborly in-
terest in the people of South Dakota
This community can afford to contribute
generously to the heroic people who
are in want from no fault ot their own i
and It ought to do bo promptly It can
send corn to feed the starving stock of
those people and thereby reduce the
surplus of'this grain In the hands of
Nebraska farmers , and it it did nothing
mora than this the value of the relief
would bo great But it can ooslly do
more , and wo bollovo will do so If
the proper effort is made to pro
sent the urgonoy of this matter
to our business men That has not yet >
bcon done , these charged with the duty
of obtaining contributions having been
cureless In Its performance Wo under
stand that it is now proposed to press
the appeal for relief , and if this is done
it is not to bo doubted that Omaha will
bo found ready to do her full share In
supplying the noccssltlosot the unfor-
tunato people of her sister slate
OJlNTEKAltr OF TIW JUDICCARV

The arrangements for this event were

complotcd the structure of our national
government The first congress , which
nconvened in April , 1789 , on the day ,
oaftor its orgauiaition entered on the
rework of providing fortho cstabllshiuent
of the judlelary by appointing a com
mittoo to frame the Judiciary not This
was approved in September , 1789 , aud
Washington promptly nominated John '
Jay of New York to bo chief justice of
the court , with John IUttledgo of Souh
Carolina , William Cuihing of Massa-
chusotts , Robert tl , Harrison of Mary
land , James Wilsou of 'onnsylvniilu ,
nnd John Blair of Virginia , as absooi-

constitution The sennto promptly conbl
flrracd these nominations , but no hnsto
was shown In bringing the judges loTl
gothor on the bench The day fixed
for the opening session of the court was
the first Monday ot February , 1790 , but
n quorum not bolng present on that day
the opening session occurred on the first
Tuesday ol Februaryono htindrodyeara
ago After a few formal sessions the
court adjourned for want of business ,
"it was a court without suitors , Its
virgin docket unsullied by an entry of
petitioners , plaintiffs in error or appolV
lants , and Its earliest session wns tin
clouded < by nny portent of that vast
nvalancho ot litigation which during
the succeeding years of Its first century
has overwhelmed it with a sllont but
Irresistible growth "
During the first ton years the sutc
promo court had no fewer than four
chief : justices , while in the following
sixty : years it had only two These two
were John Marshall ot Virginia , who
Bat upon the bench for inoro than thlrR
ty-four years and achieved an illustrlC
ous fame , nnd Roger B. Tanoy of Masi
ryland , who served twenty-eight years
and was the author of a memorable dop
clsion which became nn iulluontlnl text
for ono ot the great political parties ot
the country In the Inst twonty-si.t
years there have hoon three chlof jua-
tlces , Salmon P. Chase , Morrison H.
Wnlto > nnd Melville W. Fuller The
history of the supreme court ns a whole
appeals \ to the pride of every American
citizen While in the conflicts of par
ties it has somotlmcs been subjected to
unfavorable criticism , and there have
been occasions when it seemed to bo
influenced and swnyod rather ,
by considerations of political or ,
party expediency than by a
strict and impartial regard for the
highest public lntorost3 and the demands -
mands of justice , yet on the whole in Its 1
profound wisdom , its olovntod patriot
Ism , and its lofty Integrity , it ranks
first among the great judicial tribunals
of ancient or modern times
IWDUCE THE XBTT
The council can render this city no
gecator service than would result from
a material reduction of taxes Tno tax
levy l for 1S90 should bo reduced within
the limits of ab elute necessity
On the first day of January the sur
plus in all the funds In the city treas
ury was In round numbers about two
hundred i a d forty thousand dollars Of f
this amount the fire and police fund had I
over twenty-live thousand to its credit ; ;
the library fund ever eleven thousand r
the curbing , guttering and cleaning \
fund ever twenty-eight thousand ; the
park j fund nearly forty thousand , and
the judgment fund thirty-ono thousand
dollars
There is no valid reason why the
council should vote a levy of .
taxes t for any fund in excess of the actual
needs for the year In the nature of
things ( the assessment roil is increasing
from j year to-ycar by reason ot substantial -
tial 1 improvements aud consequently the
amount realized from taxation is steadI
lly \ increasing While it is true that the
expenses ( of our city government have
been ] very materially iucreased during
the \ last two years , wo cannot compre-
hend ] why they should increase during
the 1 present year On the contrary , if
the 1 council will take steps to lop off
supernumeraries s , right und left , and
prune i down the extras in every branch
of i municipal government , there ought
to be a material docronso in
general ( expenses Wo have been
Hying altogether too high , considering
our ( resources We are running a city
government for a population of two
hundred and fifty thousand , aud tuxine
people out of their homes to keep it up
This is really where the shoo pinches
the worst , and why Omaha realty is not
nttraeting as many investors from
abroad as it should In vitvr of the as-
surett growth of this city , and the sub
stantinl public improvements that have
been made within the past live years ,
Cut down the tax levy by all mean3 , and
lot us retrench so far as our condition
will permit

Recently the Sioux Falls Press printed a

. The following iiniwcr In the Grandpa
Burrus case was tiled in the Uulted States
conrt , today :
In the district court of the United Stntos
for 1 the district of Nebraska , in the matter
of < Lewis LI Miller , ox parte , In potltion for
habeas ' corpus
The answer of Thomas F. Hurras to the
\ mlo to show cause why ho should not bo at
tached for contempt
In this cause a rule having on the 31st day
ol JanuaryA D. 1S9S , Issued out of said
court , commanding Thomas F. Burrus to
nppoaron Monday , the 3d day of February ,
Ib' .K ) , at 2 o'clock tn the afternoon before said
court , at the United States court room in the
city of Lincoln , Neb , to show cause why ho
should uol bo uttuchod for contempt for
violating a judgment cnterod in said cause
ordering ' the delivery of the child
Evailno Mlllor to the said Lewis
1' . Miller , and restraining said
Thomas F. Uurrus from Interfering with the
custody of the said Lewis B. Miller of Bald
child , nnd alto commanding the aid Thomas
F. Burrus to produce said child before the
court under the pains und penalties of tbo
law The said Thomas F. Burrus respect
sully shows to the court that pursuant to
said Judgment ontcrcd in said habeas cor
pus proceedings , the said child Bvallno Mil
ler was delivered by the United Stntos mar
shal for the district ot Nebraska , in whoso
custody she had been committed by the order
of the cpurt , to said Lewis B. Miller on or
about the Oth day ot December A. D. lSSJ
That utter the marshal had delivered the
child Kv.illno Miller to the custody of snld
Lewis B. Miller , tbo snld Lewis B. Milter
permitted the said child to remain with tbis
respondent and Catherine Bur
rus , grandparents of the child , until
such tlmo as the said Lewis
B. Miller could take his donarturo to his
homo in the state of Ohio That on account
of the illness of tbo child and tlio sevcro
shock to her system , caused by the con
tention and litigation in rofcronco to who
should take her in custody , the snld Lewis
B. Miller was unable to leave the city of
Omaha for his homo for two or three days
Several attempts were made by the father ,
Lewis B. Miller , to depart with the child ,
but such was the strong uvorsion nnd dislike
of the child to said Lewis B. Miller , and so
strong was her manifestation of love and
affection for the respondent and his wife
Catherlno Burrus , that great sympathy was
manifested by tbo various bystanders and
spectators nt the station nbout the tlmo the
train was to depart , that said Lewis B.
Miller either deemed it inexpedient
or was unwilling to forcibly wrest the child
from the possession of this respondent , nnd
• the said Catherine Burrus , to whom aho
clung with all the strength and physical
vigor she possessed • Subsequently , by
mutual arrangement entered Into between
the said Thomas V. Burrus and the said
Lewis B. Miller , both the said Lewis B.
Miller nnd this respondent and his wife , to .
gether with the child , took the Union Pacific
dummy In the citv of Omaha , Nub , for the ,
transfer station in the city of Council Bluffs ,
in the.statoot Iowa , accompanied by a largo i
number of people whoso sympathies had
boon dteply aroused , excited and affected b.v
the determined attempt of the father , Lewis
U. Miller , to wrench the said Kvalino Miller
from the custody of her grandparents and ,
by the manifest determination ot the child
to remain with her grandparents nnd
her plain aversion to Lewis B.
Miller After arriving at the transfer
station in Council HlufTs , such wns the cold
and unsympathetic demeanor of Lewis B.
Miller nnd the manifest reluctance of the
child to go with her father , she dinging with
the energy of desperation to the only guar
dians and parents she had over known , this [
respondent and his wife , that the spectators
nnd bystanders assembled at the station
were excited lo the highest pitch , and with
out nny previous knowlcdgo nt respondent or
understanding having been entered into by
this respondent with any of the people as-
sembleu at the station , this respondent and I
bis wife and the said Bvalluo Miller were ,
su tdenly and forcably pushed and hustled [
un tea , train then about to depart , and were :
carried away to Malvern , iu the stoto of f
Iowa , whore they remained several day * i
until the child by rest and seclusion recovered 1
tor health Since that tlmo the child has re
mained in tno custody ana control oi ims re
spondent and his wife , Catherine Uurrus ,
until a short tlmo since , when she loft with
respondents wife , Catherine Burros , for a
visit in the state of Iowu , and is at the pres
ent tlmo with respondents wife , Catherine
Burrus , in said state , and this respondent is
unnblo to produce her iu court at the present
time
Respondent , with all duo respect to the
court , by way of mitigation of his offense , if
the court bo of the opinion that the said
judgment or decree has iu fact been violated ,
would respectfully show that ho has been
udvlsed by several counsel of competent and
legal Icarniuir , members of this court , that
the court was wholly without jurisdiction to
muko the order and enter the order direct
ing the said child to bo delivered to said
Lewis B. Miller , and in view-of the
st Moment made by the court at
the time suld judgment was entered ,
that doubt existed in liU own mind as to the
jurisdiction ot tbo court , ho has felt that the
proper course for bim to pursue , in vlow of
the great nffeetion he has for tbo child , to
doclmo to produce the child in rourt at tbo
piosopt time And the said Thomas F. Bur
rus shows to the court that It is wholly
without jurisdiction either of the subject
matter , or of the persons of this respondent
and the said child Evailno Miller , and the
judgment of the court is null and void , or if
not void It was fully satislled when the
marshal dolivcred the child to Lewis B.
Miller
As n.mnttor of mitigation , If the court beet
ot opinion that it clearly hud jurisdiction to
enter thu judgment in question , the respond
ent shows to the court , that while the said
Lewis 1 $ . Mlllor had never expended more
than t5 for the care , maintenance und educa
tion of the child , ho and bis wife have had
the custody , control and management of the
child for nojvly eight years , and have nursed
it , provided for it and educated It to the best
ot tholr ability , und have now for it so deep
and abiding anectlon that they feci that the
loss of the child will bo to them an unbeara
ble burden
Wherefore respondent prays that said rule
to show cause why ho should not bo attached
for contempt , and to produce tb .satd child
before the rourt , bo discharged
It was nearly a o'clock when the contempt
case against ( Iiandiu Burrus was culled
Attorney Latnbertaon road his answer as
above , and made running comments to thn
court thereon All tlio while the old man
sat calmly by , uppurontly an intnrcstoil
I spectator , but nothing moro At the conclu
I sion of whut the ad verso side had to say
Judge Dundy , iu substunco , said ;
" 1 will not hear arguments from attorneys
of either side on the question of Jurisdiction ,
f ha order of this court has gone forth that
the potion of Evelyn Mlllor shull bo given
into the bands of her father , nnd it hus i
been dibobeyud , | t matters not how In the i
first place , there is a rule to show cause why
Grandpa Burrus should not comply with the i
mandate given , This has not been done
Now , regardless of what some good lawyers i
may have counseled , I can see no other
course than to uttuch bim for contempt unless -
loss the order of the court is Doromplorily
obojed As the case stands now , I only re-
grut that I compelled Miller , tlio father of
tbo child , in iiav the expense of Grandpa i
Burrus and his wife from Talmavo to i
Omaha and return and certain hotel bills
wbilethoy were In the city , if my order is i
not obeyed the oulv question with mo Is
ho iv I shall punish It may como like
a thunderbolt , und possibly llko a
Muy shower If committed , until the
auproma court can settle the matter , Mr
Uurrus will have to llo in jail for at least
two months I dislike to punish thus so
verely , but if necessity compels I cannot g't
behind mv conceptions of thu law "
Judge Dundy then sold bo would like to
moot 1 the lawyers of both sides at Ids room nt
1t the hotel nftor court ndlourncd , when cer
tain contingencies would bo consldored At
the * mooting Mr Lnmbcrtson rcquestod that
Judge Dundy would commit his cllont ,
Grandpa i Burrus , a sunicicnt length of time
for the supreme court to pasi upon the
points , ot law invoked , and thus the tnattor
rests i
Tno opinion generally exists that Mr
J Uurrus will be committed for contempt of
court for a period of nt least two months on
\Vodnosdny morning
