ArrOxt rtf'iii'ral and
f The need of n moro perfect understanding
with reference to the cure mid treatment of
unfortunate strangers who nro taken sick In
the city was clearly made manifest yesterday
afternoon. A stranger fell In a , ( It on tipper
Hronihvny In front of Wheeler & Herald's
boUlliitf works about 12w. : : The patrol
wagon was summoned and ho was removed to
the police .station , where he was laid upon
Iholoor / , with an old rubber coat under his
liead. The oniccrs In charge of the station
said they did r , ot know whtit to do with him ,
ami nil they could do was to let him llo there.
One was In favor of romovlnghlm to thoslde-
wullt. but to the credit of humanity be It said
thai the supgcstlnii did not prevail. The suf
ferer passed rapidly from one lit to another
until they numbered nearly a dozen. Ho was
cared for by John Hurley , a Union I'ucillc
switchman , and u couple of friends who hap
pened to pass along and saw what was the
matter.
"If lie belongs to your order why don't you
take him away from hero and take euro of
him ! " Imiuircd the Juilcr. ' "He don't ' belong
to my order , " declared Hurley , "but he Is a
human being , and I don't propose to bee him
treated llko a dog if 1 can help It. "
No order could bo Hccurc'd to have the sick
man removed to a hospital and the police stn-
tion llnor seemed to bo the only sheltered
place Unit could bo utilized for the purpose.
There tin- sufferer lay during the greater part
if the afternoon. During lucid intervals he
fitatcd that he was from Uirchtrco county ,
Missouri'where ho has a wife and live chil
dren His name wan not learned. The mayor
* vas informed of the situation , but ho could
pivo no relief and sent word to the county
overseer of the poor. A decent regard for
siiffcrintr Immunity demands that such ar
rangements should bo made as * would Insure
prompt action In cases of this kind.

A AVouIl-Ic Sensation FallH Flat.
An evening paper attempted to make n
J very sensational affair out of the arrest of Dr.
P C. U. Judd on a charge of obstructing corres
pondence and interfering with the United
States nfail. With the many friends of the
doctor the charge will fall Hat , as his integ
I rity ai a business man and standing as a citi
zen is too well known to permit of the matter
t receiving any serious consideration with any
W. vof his acquaintance.- ) . The whole story in a
j .itshcll is simply this :
'
( I Letters were written by Airs.
t A. Jenkins of I'awnco City and
iv Muttio Stowell of Tccumsch.
e were addressed to .1. II. Nelson , and
? wlth reference to becoming agents for
V-clcctric belts. That from Mrs. Stowell
Rallied an order for a bolt. Inasmuch as
c was no J. II. Nelson to ho found either
or in Omaha , and as Dr. Jirdd is the only
. .OiriHile belt manufacturer hero , the the lot-
. id's were delivereil at his ollice , whro they
r * were opened and answered. Nelson was in
formed that a former loiter had been sent
him , but that it had been answered by Dr.
Judd. Nelson then repaired to Judd's
olllce , where ho was given the two
letters that had been addressed
to him , and it was from this that the information
mation was Hied with R M. Huntef , deputy
clerk of the federal court. A warrant was
issued , and Dr. Judd was arrested yesterday
by United States Marshal Miller of'licd Oak' .
llo gave bonds in the sum of ? T > 00 for his ap
pearance for a hearing July 1.
* < 4-"Or. Judd was called on for his side of the
' _ je , and bilked very freely. Said he : "Why ,
At was simply a mistake on the part of some
no , hero in the olllco , and an attempt to work
Xilackmaillng scliemo on the strength ol it.
Won't know this fellow Nelson and never
% him until ho came In hero. His attorney ,
, . 'brge F. Uoulton , was the llrst ono who
llcd and ho said the matter Could he settled
. * I would pay $ .100. ns his client had been
, damaged that amount. 1 refused to do it , and
WRelson himself called later and offered to
. * settle for $100. I told him I was not in the
blackmailing business , and that ho could re-
l cover in a civil action if either myself or
it ny of my employes had damaged him.
r That was the last of it until I was arrested
today. It was simply an oversight , and is
ono that is liable to occur any day. Wo have
hundreds of letters to answer every day , and
it is suppdsed that the letters left hero ureA
A for us. If they are addressed to a galvanic
V bell company , that settles it , and any of the
clerks open them and answer them and 1111
the enclosed orders. Do/ens of letters come
VI n hero addressed to our traveling agents ,
Containing inquiries or orders , and of course
< hov are all opened and attended to..as they are
undoubtedly intended for the olllco , but are
addressed to the agent , whom the writer has
tmct or possibly transacted business with.
Vt5ovor.il of our agents represent themselves
fus being the manufacturers and give ad-
jMressed envelopes with their name and the
/number of our factory. That is probably
i b > 0 } ' i'oso ' ' ° tt ° | 1l ! were opened. Wo have
'I'l'CCtiiH of agents and are constantly ad-
i TUW ones. It is not to bo supposed that
{ 'Jerks romoinbur the names of all of
. ( cm. There is absolutely nothing in the
case. 1 don't know who opened the letters ,
uml perhaps never will , hut so far as being
guilty of any criminal action , why it is sim
ply ridiculous. "
Attorney Holton stated that his client lived
at Sixteenth ami Broadway , but ho could
not bo found there. The attorney then lo
cated htm at Sixteenth and Avenue I ) , and
then at Twenty-fifth and Avenue A. but
Dually said ho did not know where he lived.

An Kvuntl'iil Family ( jinirrel.
The arrest of the burglars , ( Jrandy and
Harris , who were recently brought back from
St , Louts to answer to the charge of burglar
izing the residences of C. II. Hurl and T. B.
Hays in this city , was accomplished in rather
u peculiar manner. It was not the result of
deep detective skill or a happy arrest on sus
picion , but It was simply one of those ordinary
little "happcnstances" that occur once In a
while , The men were not trailed down by
Council Bluffs sleuths , neither wort } they
'spotted" by the lly coiu of St. Kouls.
A llttlo family row was at the bottom of their
apprehension , and on account of that dlftl-
cully they uro now In jail , with the certainty
of a term In the penitentiary hanging over
their heads. It will bo remembered that
when they burglarized the Hurl residence
they took the proprietor's watch , chain ,
charm and Musonlo budge , together with a
lot of trinkets and some money. They went
to St , Louis , and soon after arriving there
their grief came to u focus , ( iniiuly
went to the homo of hU father-In-
law and demanded to know the
whereabouts of his wife , who had been in
duced to leave him. Her father ivfused to
tell him and Grimily grow demonstrative ,
llnnUy starling la to choke the desired information -
formation out of the old gentleman. This led
to his uuvst for assault and buttery , and
when ho was searched at the police station
several things In his pockets were marked
"O M Hurl , Council Bluffs , " This was all
ihero was to it , as the men might Just as well
Uuvo walked iu uud giveu thomsclvca up.
They were hold , of course , and the Council
Bluifs oflicers notified.
On arriving here It was found that ono of
them wai wearing somoof Mr. Hurl's clothes.
Instead of telling oven a phmslblello the burg
lar stoutly afllrmcd that ho had had the
clothes for months , and told of getting them
In seine far away place. Ho did not claim to
have recently gotten them from that vnguo
"other fellow , " who usually figures in such
cases. Other articles found on the fellows
connect them with the recent burglaries in
Otnaha. Among other things a collection of
rare coin1 * stolen from the residence of W. H.
Kocnlg , No. 'JUS North Nineteenth street ,
Otnuh wa * found upon them. MrGIbbs
thought ho recdftiii/ca a spy glass as ono be
longing to him , that was stolen from the ofllco
of Mr. McShunc.
Several of the members of the Omaha po
lice force have visited the men , but can not
recollect ever having seen them before. They
are positive , however , that the men have
committed several burglaries In the city
across the river , and are anxious to give them
a whirl in the Nebraska courts
Another theory that the Omaha police nro
working under Is that possibly the prisoners
may he the parties who are responsible for
the sudden ami tragic death of Mr. Poor ,
who was so cruelly murdered in his own
house.
Sheriff O'Neill Is positive that the men are
not the desx | > rnto criminals that certain
parties uro trying to make out- They are
not sharp and cunning enough to oo very old
birds. An old criminal and a deiperato man
is about as keen as they make em. bueh a
man wouldn't carry around the stuff In his
pocket that would surely send him to the
penitentiary. A crook Is always liable to be
arrested , often on a minor charge or on sus
picion , and it wouldn't do to bo loaded down
with evidence for the prosecuting attorney.
An experienced crook wouldn't have claimed
to own those clothes , when Charley Hart was
right there ready to prove that they wcro
stolen from him less than three weeks ago.
They may have been concerned iu a number
of burglaries , and may bo very promising
crooks , but they are not very old iu the busi
ness. "

Tin : Union Depot.
"How's the union depot ! "
This was the query fired atone of the depot
company yesterday.
"It's all right. I do not see anything to
prevent the early commencement of the work.
There is but little to adjust , and there is no
likelihood of any serious disagreement about
that little. There will necessarily bo some
crossing of somoof the Chicago , Burlington
& Quiney tracks by other lines in getting
into the depot. Then there is .considerable )
right of way necessary for the Chicago &
Northwestern. Some Insist that these rights
of way should all bo owned and controlled by
the union depot company , while others want
only the depot and grounds proper to bo thus
owned. The various roads have appointed com
mittees to meet on the ISth to arrange those
matters. Thera Is n possibility , of course , of
some road getting balky over sorno trilling
mutter of tills sort , but there is no probabil
ity of it. I am expecting a harmonious and
speedy arranging of all these unfinished pre
liminaries , because they arc so insignificant
in comparison with the project itself. Yes ,
you may look for actual work to begin before
long. It is no easy matter to arrange so
many details satisfactorily to so many par
ties. The stock of the depot company is all
ready to issue , and as all the roads are
pledged to the enterprise , it is certain to go. "

There is no secret order In the city stronger
than the Odd Fellows , and hence when it is
suggested that they will probably soon build
a block hero no doubt arises as to their
ability to do so. The Odd Fellows have se
cured an option on eighty feet on Broadway
next to the government building. That
much is certain. The plan proposed Is to
form a stock company of Odd Fellows , indi
viduals and lodges taking the necessary
shares , the scheme being similar to that by
which the Masonic temple was erected. U is
proposed , however , that the Odd Fellows
shall build a much more imposing edifice.
The scheme is being earnestly discussed , and
somoof the most prominent and wealthiest
members are very much in favor of { joing
right ahead with it.

morning to considering whether ho should
discharge from custody C. C. Hale , who Js
under arrest for shooting Eugene II. Cowlcs
of Cleveland. He decided before doing so to
make an attempt to have Cowles lay n
charge , but ho still refused to do so. Ho
made a stntcmsnt , however , which practically
clears Hale.
Iu the course of 'us deposition ho says : "I
stated to Halo . d my wife several times
that any ono interfering to deprive me of my
child would bo shot by me if I did not get the
protection of a court in time. The throats 1
made were against any one who would try to
deprive me of my child illegally.
"The lawyer of whom I spoke is the sheriff
from Cleveland. I ncted all through upon
legal advice from Cleveland and Toronto and
never overstepped the bounds of the law. I
can't charge , and will not accusemy brother-
in-law witn shooting mo with intent to dome
mo any harm.
"I believe that ho was momentarily out of
his mind , having been wrought up to that
state by the sufferings of my wife.

Secretary of War ! Proctor told them the
times of pcaco were the hardest for
army officers. ThdW 'is ' no doubt of their
record In time of war. Since- the days of
Miles Stundlsh there had been no period of
forty years in which wo hud not been obliged
to cull npon an able general to command our
armies In war.
vVhcn General Sherman was Introduced ho
said ho would first have to apologize for
appearing In civilian dress. "But I tell yo.u , "
said he , "you will ho glad to follow my example -
ample when you have served fifty years , as I
have done today. " At this announcement
the audience sent up a mighty shout of con
gratulation on the old warrior's seml-centcn-
nlnl. "I have seen fifty such classes as this

pleased to see such a largo audience today.
Times have changed slnc.0 fifty years ago ,

adcts has remained almost the sumo since

onclusion General Sherman said the grad

tion. Grant , Sheridan and himself had never
commanded a company until the war broke
out. Ho advised the cadets to trust In God
and servo their country faithfully.
The corps then marched back to the bar
racks , the order of the day was read and the
cadets dismissed. The boys hurried away to
pack their trunks and put on civilian dress ,
and a few hours later were on their way to
New York.
I II15 PAItK COMMISSION.
Several Matters Dl.sutiHHcd at Yestor-
day'H Meeting.
Judge Lake wus the absent member when
the park commission convened yesterday
afternoon.
As soon as the mooting was fairly tinder
way a set of plans for the new summer
house which it is proposed to erect in Hans-
coin park wus spread upon the table for In
spection , but as thcro are other plans to
come in no action regarding the subject was
taken.
The question of a permanent walk to bo
laid upon the north side of JeiTorsoir square
was considered and a committee ap
pointed to present the question
to the council. The members of Iho
commission nro in favor of the walk , but they
are of the opinion that the payment for its
construction should como out of the general ,
instead of out of the park fund.
In discussing the west Lcavcnworth street
park Mr. Cleveland recommended the pur
chasing of the Snyder tract , which is n nar
row strip of land near the ravine on thonorth.
The object in purchasing this land is for the
purpose of widening the roadway.
The subject was re/erred to the committee
on improvements.
Superintendent Cleveland presented a
prollloof the Lcuveiiworth street park , show
ing drives , cuts and fills.
The plans were turned over to the
superintendent of construction , and ho was
instructed to work according to the ideas ad
vanced by Mr. Cleveland.
Before adjournment the commissioners con
cluded to drive out Loavcnworth street next
Sunday morning and decide whether or not it
will bo necessary to build a Viaduct over the
Missouri Pacific trades where they cross the
