Hon. John L. Webster was asked If ho had
been retained by Mr. McKlbhln , late pur
chasing nftcnt of the Union Pacific , to defend
him In the suit brought by that company , and
If ho hud had an Interview with the gentle
man.
man.Mr
Mr , Webster said : "Yes , I have been re
tained by McKilibln. I had nn Interview
with him In Chicago Sunday In company
with Judge Davis. Mr. McKIbbln gave mo n
full history of his actlops as purchasing
agent for the Union Pacific railway company ,
and gave mo the necessary Information to
prepare for u defense. "
When asked what Mr. McKIbbln had to
say us to the truth of the charges which had
been mndo against him , Mr. Webster replied :
"Mr. McKIbbln has a perfect defense to
the charges made against him. Ho never en
tered Into any corrupt aKrccmcntwIth Barnes
& Co. If tno cases ever coino to trial , wo
will bo prepared to show that there was no
conspiracy between McUibbln nnd Barnes ;
that Dames never paid McKIbbln any moiioy
arising out of the contracts , and never agreed
to pay McKIbbln any money whatever. Wo
will bo prepared to show that
the purchases of lumber were fairly and
honestly made , so far as McKtbbln was con
cerned. Wo nro prepared to make a perfect
explanation of all the charges that tlio lum
ber was purchased at exorbitant prices , or
was not of the grade or class called for. I do
not wish to make a detailed statement of how
I mean to prove these defenses to the action ,
mid It would not bo proper for mo to do so. "
Tlio reporter asked Mr. Webster what Me-
Kibbln hud to say touching the rumors that
thcro had been frauds In the contracts with
other pirtlfs , for other kinds of material.
Mr. Webster said : "I talked over nil thcso
matters with Mr. McKibbln , and nm cssured
by him that all thcso rumors nro without
foundation. I was put In possession of such
facts relating to his conduct as purchasing
ngcnt which satisfy mo that I shall bo able to
show , if necessary , and nt the proper
time and in the proper manner that all thcso
rumors are unfounded. "
The reporter inquired whether Mr. McKIb-
bin was coining to Omaha to defend the suits.
Mr. Webster answered : "I have arranged
with Mr. McKIbbln to como to Omaha as soon
as his presence hero may bo necessary or do-
sirable. Ho agreed with mo to como 'hero at
any time I should send for him by cither tele-
pram or letter. If Mr. MeKlbbin Is wanted
hero by the Union Pacific railway company ,
or any other persons , for 11113' proper or neces
sary business , I can have him hero on two
days' notice. "

Now Members AVnnt to Say Something
About Next Year's Teacliei-H.
Although the board of education wont
through all the details of electing teachers
on Saturday night , knowing ones say the end
of tlio matter has not yet been reached.
Thcro is a strong determination on the part
of certain members of the board to reconsider
the election , und a scheme has been sug
gested which , It is thought , will bo put in
operation after the organizations tno now
board.
If the scheme should bo succosssful
several heads will undoubtedly fall into the
basket.
Those members who , It is alleged , are de
termined to force the matter through , nro
Messrs. Points , Roes , Wohrer , Martin and
Goodman of the old , and Babcock nnd Smyth
of the now members. It Is stated by a gen
tleman who Is in a position to know whereof
bo speaks that Mr. Babcook had announced
that , ho would have the services of at least
ono teacher dispensed with , because ho had
conceived the idea that she had opposed his
election.
Tlio action of Mr. Babcock in presenting to
the board , for reading , a legal opinion , ad
dressed to himself , to the effect that the old
board had no right to elect teachers , was ex
tensively commented by members of
tlio board and others , and looked upon
as an indication that ho wanted to have some
thing to say about who bhould teach in the
public schools.
The members opposed to re-consideration
nro Messrs. Kcllov. McConncll , Popploton ,
Coburn and Spalding , of the old , and Glbbs
mid Morrison of the now board.
This division leaves Mr. Coryell "on the
fence" with the halanro of power. It is
stated that ho will probably vote to recon
sider.
In this action on Mr. Coyell'iJ part Is soon
the line Italian hand of ox-Mayor Broatch ,
who Is bringing the influence of the "T. E. "
club to bear on the member from the Sixth.
At the mooting Saturday night , when sev
eral attempts more made to filibuster by
JJccs , Wonror , at al. , Mr. Coryoll was In a
doubt. When his name was called ho hesi
tated , and several times requested to bo
pasod , but generally voted with those who
were opposing ilio election.
The next meeting of the board will bo on
the 7th prov , nnd under Mr. Points' motion ,
Saturday night , to lay over reconsideration of
the election of teachers until the next meet
ing , the matter will come up , but will in nil
probability not carry , as with all the mem
bers present , the bo.ird stands nlno to seven
against reconsidering ; butnftcr July21 , tlio
date of the organization of the now board , tlio
present minority will bo In poworandfun
may bo expected. "

passage of said bills , or any restrictive legis

Olco oil expressed from thu choice fat ot

Mr. FunstDii to Mr. Persons.
SOUTH OMAHA , June 29. To the Editor of
Tun Bir. : Observing in your issue of today ,
an article under the above heading and signed
F. J. Persons , I would like to inform Mr.
Persons where I got my authority to attach
my signature to school orders for teachers'
"wages" as a member nnd secretary of the
South Omaha school board.
At an adjourned meeting of the board of
education of this district , held in the high
school Juno 9 , 1890 , 1 presented my certificate
of election from the county court , after the
contest. I was accepted by the board as. a
member and elected secretary.
At a special meeting of the board , Juno 14 ,
1S90 , Mr. Carroll came around with letters
from his attorneys nnd a certificate of appeal
to the district court , dated Juno 11 , 1890 , two
* days after ho had given up his and I had ta
ken my seat on the board , and demanded his
scat again on the ground that he had lllcd nn
appeal bond. I declined to give It up nnd re
ferred him to section "J3 of chapter : . ' 0 of the
compiled statutes of Nebraska , which says
that an appeal cannot supersede the execu
tion of the Judgment unless the party appeal
ing is , at the time of tlio appeal , in possession
of the olllce. When Mr. Carroll appealed ho
was not in possession of omce , and allowing
Unit ho illed his appeal before
I took my scat , I don't ' see how that
would help him any as ho , through his attor-
tornoy , admitted in open court that ho had
not been elected. Therefore I am a member
of the board of education and hence my right
to sign all warrants and transact all otber
business of the board devolving upon mo.
Mr. Persons had better consider the matter
of signing the teachers' warrants. The
teachers were hired at a fixed salary nnd
their work is performed but their money is
not forthcoming , nnd I believe there is n con
tract drawn up between teacher nnd board
binding upon each. KOIIDKT FO.NSTON.

STREET RAILWAY PEOPLE IN COURT ,
SniiHntlonnl Clmrjjc Made by the
1'lnlutlfTntul n llccclvcr A kol for
tlio Company Other District
Court Cases.
Judge Wnltcloy has thonppearanco of a man
who ought to take tlio llrst tnilu fur the cool
est , most secluded mountain nook to bo found
on tlio continent , and remain there until
ttmo to open the September term of court.
The extraordinary heavy strain of solving
knotty legal riddles and problems , to which
ho has boon subjected during the past
month seems to bo bearing him down almost
to the very earth.
Nowltbstandlng these facts , which have
been nttn.ctlng a great deal of private com
ment on all sides , ho allowed one of the
\vclghtcst cases upon the docket , In point of
surrounding circumstances , to bo precipi
tated upon him yesterday morning1.
It was that of John A. Horbnch vs. Cap
tain Marsh , Frank Murphy , Guy C. Barton ,
S. II. II. Clark , W. A. Smith and the Omaha
horse railway comp.iuv.
The case is ono that bids fore to rake up the
records of this corporation from Its tnclpicn-
cy , the matter Involved being twenty shares
of the original or llrst Issue of stock by the
company , which consisted of 1,000 shares at
$100 per share.
In -vord , Mr. Horbach seeks to set nsldo
n foreclosure sale which apparently had the
effect of whipping out of existence his hold
ings in the company.
The plalntlfC claims that Messrs. Marsh ,
Murphy and Smith secretly and fraudulently
amended the company's by-laws nt & meeting
which , as ho alleged , was held In so Improper
n place as the company's stables , March 4 ,
18S4 , in order to cnublo them to perpetrate
certain frauds In manipulating the company's
affairs.
Mr. Horbach asks that the defendants bo
required to show under oath how much stock
over and above the required 1,000 shares has
been issued by them , mid that they bo re
quired to surrender the same for cancella
tion , and return to the company nil
sums they may have received or
that may have been paid out by the
company as dividends thereon mid on
all bonds. Ho also asks that an accounting
may bo had of all tlio receipts , expenditures ,
debts and credits of the company from Jan
uary 1. 1879 , and that a receiver be ap
pointed.
It Is said by attorneys ncquanted with the
case that it represents ono of the most in
tricate tangles ever presented to a court in
this district.
Although It Is not set forth In the petition ,
yet it Is evident to the minds of the defend
ants that In case Mr. Horbach secures the
granting of his prayer ho will immediately
come In with n claim for his share of the com
pany profits which , upon the face of his hold
ings , will figure up to many thousands of del
lars.
lars.Mr.
Mr. Horbach was put on the stand and tes
tified that ho had taken from Moses Shinn , as
collateral security for a loan , twenty shares
of street railway stock In 1S77. These shares
became the property of Mr. Horbach In
December. 1878. Ho never attended the
meeting of the stockholders and never told
anyone except Mr. Marsh that ho owned the
stock. When the stock of the company was
put up for solo ho hud intended to attend the
sale and buy it In , but Marsh got ahead of
him. John D. Creighton was present , and
not being "onto the racket , " ran the price of
the stock up to $24,000. and Mr. Marsh bought
It for $24,500 , for the benefit of the stock
holders.
In 1874 Mr. Horbach tried to buy a part of
Mr. Marsh's stock , but the latter refused to
sell. At that time Mr. Marsh owned four-
sovoiiths of the stock. In June , 1883 , at the
trial of the case before Judge Wnkelcy , ho llrst
learned that Mr. Marsh claimed more of the
stock than his holdings entitled him to.
Mr. Horbach accused the directors of tlio
company of issuing a largo amount of stock
fraudulently and distributing It among them
selves. Ho claimed that the books Of the
company would show this.
It was shown that an order of tno court di
recting the officers to bring the books Into
court had been disonoyed , and Mr. Horbach's
attorney asked leave to enter affidavits as to
the contents of the books , to bo used in their
stead , as provided by statute.
The defense claimed that the books did not
show any such illegal transactions. It. was
admitted that stock had been issued , but it
was denied that it was fraudulent. Mr.
Pritchett , attorney for the railway people ,
said that If Mr. Horbach would state explic
itly just what books ho wanted and what
part of them , they would bo produced , but ho
did not intend to bring all the books into
court to lot Mr. Horbach run through them
at his leisure.
Judge Wakeloy ruled that Mr. Horbach
had produced sumciontovidouco to prove that
ho was n stockholder in the company , mid It
had also been shown that Marsh had bought
stock at a. judicial sale for the benefit of , the
stockholders , and Horbach claimed that the
books of'tho company would show that its
alluirs tind been run on this understanding.
The court thought the books wore competent
evidence and advised the [ .laintilt to subpoena
the books. If the books showed that the
ground taken by the plaintiff was correct it
would bo necessary to have an accounting ,
otherwise not.
Judge Clarkson and a Jury took up the case
of the state against Charles E. Parker , the
bo } ' charged with uttering six forged checks
for sums varying from $ t to § 10 on the follow
ing business men : J. W. Austin , J. A. Hel
ler , W. It. Bennett & Co. , and L. O. Jones.
City officers testified that young Parker ad
mitted point blank to them that ho had done
done the crooked work with which ho has
been charged and which is pronounced to bo
the cleverest perpetrated in this city.
Judges Do.ino and Hopewoll nro still strug
gling with the cases that were before them
last Saturday.

attend the Elks' ' convention , and will not bo

An Immense Irrigation Scheme.
J. B. Ashley of Liverpool , who dlnod
at tlio Palmer in Chicago the other
evening , is journeying to Sun Francisco ,
where ho will sail for Peru , says the
Chicago Tribune. He is a member of
the English syndicate which lately in
vested in an immense Peruvian irriga
tion fechomo. Over 00,000 acres of land
in Northern Peru are to bo made useful
by tlio irrigation ditch. This will bo
bone by building u stone dam 300
foot long by in height and an
oxtention of earth across the pampas of
1,000 foot. A storage reservoir will thus
bo made for holding the Hoods of the
Piura river , which now run into the
ocean. The China river will bo con
nected with "tho Piura by a tunnel above
the dam. The desert of Lcchura will
also bo made fertile. In that land there
tire rich deposits of petroleum mid salt.
The syndicate ban the right to bora the
wells , also the contract to furnish the
cities of Cutttcuos , Louhuln , and Pina
with water Ono reason that this grant
WUH taUon by , a Liverpool syndicate is
that the lands uro near the only tract in
the world which produces Peruvian
cotton.
"This cotton is especially adapted to
tlio adulteration of wool. When it is
mixed with wool the dilTcronco is not
dftacornlblo except by the use of a micro
scope. It is a rougliodgcd staple and is
used in the manufacture of line merino
goods. The land boars two crops n year
