The switchmen In the Chicago , St. Paul ,
Tillimnipolb and Omaha , and the Chicago
and Northwestern , and the Fremont , 121k
liorn anil Missouri "Valley yards In this city
vcro cotisldcrrbly excited yesterday over
the prospects of going out on a strike.
These roads nro n part of the Vanderbllt
system on which the eastern strike was de
clared some ttmo ago. Until yesttrday it was
not supposed tin ; strike would extend wc.it of
Chicago , bat now there Is a prospect of tt not
only reaching : this city , but extending over
all of the Vhiulcrbilt lines hi the -west.
At an curly hour It win reported that T. V.
i'owderly had notified the grievance commit
tee of the Knights of Labor of Oinnhii that
the strike was "on" without any prospect of
settlement and for the Omaha llrotherhoo.l
of Switchmen to bo ready to go out ut a mo
ment's warning.
The switchmen In the yards refused to'tnlk
upon the subject , stating the innttur was rn-
tlrcy.lu the bands of the members of t'iu '
committee. They however stated that a
walkout was not Improbable and tlmt Itmifiht
occur within twelve hours. '
Just nt this time a strike upon these roads
would bo ultonded with serious result ! ) , as a
largo amount ot freight Is being handled , and
the volume of business U daily increasing.
There are about forty-flvo men employed
In the yards , most of whom are work I tig
overtime In order to bundle the freight that
Is coming hi and going out.
The men all object to a walkout , but state
that If tbo order comes Ihero wilt bo no alter
native for thcin.

Tbo board of education had nn audience
last night , nnd it was evident from the
presence of prominent citl/.ons that some
thing of special importance was anticipated
In the proceedings.
Among the well known cltl/ens present
wore : M. L. Hocilor , It. II. Robinson , J. Vf
Ellcr , "W. V , Morse , Oeorgo A. Ilarker ,
George K. Puitchctt , Dr. V , Swartzcr and
Charles 1C. Bell.
DThe Fourth ( vtird citicns' commltteo wus
present nnd loaded with a report upon the
school facilities matter. All members of
the board were present but Martin , Recs and
Spaulding.
A letter was received from Mr. C. P. Need-
bam , renuostlng that a leave of absence bo
granted Miss Lizzlo Kcedbam , n teacher In
Iho l/.ai'd school , fer the reason that
slio lies dangerously ill at Adrian ,
Mich. , nnd the knowledge that she
Is granted u leavoof absence will relieve her
mind and innko her recovery moro probable.
On motion of McCouiicll the lady was
granted n leave of absence for Uvo months
without pay.
'J.'ho board then proceeded to the election of
Janitors for the Saratoga , Park and Iznril
schools.
-src
- Uartmy McGinn was elected Janitor of the
Saratoga school.
The Uoard then undertook of selection
of a janitor for the Park school ,
The balloting went inerrilv on
and on until the ineinb is used up about ten
pounds of paper in writing tlicir ballots.
When two hours had been squandered and
the board had ballotted lllty times , Mr.
Smyth moved that tbo matter bo referred
hack to tbo committee on heating and venti
lation , ivlth tlio request that they report n
nanio from tlio list of candidate ! to bo voted
for at the next meeting.
"That will leave us In Just the same place
as wo were when wo began b.illoting tp-
iilpht , " said Mr. Poppletou. ' ! want this
thing settled If wo have to stay here and
vote until this time tomorrow. "
This mcuiod to bo the sentiment of a ma
jority , nnd the president called for another
bullot.
After having spent two and a half hours
and balloting sixty-eight , times , .tlio board
11 n ally elected A. C. Trout e.s janitor of the
Park school.
"W. C' . Luwlon was clouted janitor oCtlio
Iiai'd school.
On in turn of McConnell the regular order
of business was suspended und the citizens'
committee from the Fourth ward was asked
to report the deliberations of the meeting
hold on Wednesday evening with reference
to thu arrangements dcslrod by the people in
the vicinity of the high school for graded
school facilities. ,
The rcportof the committee sets forth that
, the Central school should bo continued as a
prndo and primary school , and that the tax
payers nnd property ownars in the central
jmrt of the city have a right to demand ale-
quato school facilities for thu primary grades ,
but they do not wish to do anything that will
impair the usefulness ot th < > high school.
They uro willing , therefore , to accept
the accommodations of the temporary
structure until a permanent ono can bo
provided. 'Iho report further states that the
purchasing or leasing of additional grounds
m that vicinity for school purposes is Im
practicable , extravagant nnd unwarranted.
hinco thenis ample room on tlio high school
grounds for noth schools. The reports con
cludes ; is follows !
' -Wo bellc\o Unit the erection of a sightly
permanent brick building In the rear of the
' . . present high school building , with proper
J elevation and frontage on Capitol aveiiue ,
would gre.illy enhance the appearance and
ndd to the usefulness of both buildings and
grounds 5 the cost to the taxpayers would holes
los > s than tha pu rob aso price alone for separ
ate grounds , Tbo present location being
central , healthful , forever Isolated from busi
K ness encroachments , valuable , and free of
cost , rent or taxes , so granted and dedicated
oy ino BUUO lorover lor seuool purposes ,
should so bo usod. "
On motion of Mr. Smyth the report was ac
cepted and plnerd on Hie.
The committee on buildings reported that
the contractor , Mr. Swlckard , to whom had
been award tbo contract for the erection of
three small school bulldlncs nt Saratoga ,
Hickory and Central Park , had failed to fur
nish n aufllelent bond , and the commHteo
therefore ) recommended that the contract bo
let to the next lowest bidder , Air. Garmong.
On motion of McConaoll the mutter was
roierretl to the llnnnce commltteo with power

The hoard then adjourned to meet next

A Rood sized niullcnco assembled nt Boyd's
opera house last evening to listen to tha de
bate Between JudKoKccd nnd A. 0. Wolfon-
bargcr on tlio question , ' 'That the carrying of
the prohibitory amendment will bo detri
mental to the business Interests of Omnha
mid the state of Nebraska. " The former
gentleman Rpoke In the afllrinativo and tbo
latter In the negative.
JudRO Kccd spoke substantially as follows :
"I know It has of late years become some
what unpopular to dofc ml the limitations of
state nnd federal constitutions against the
encroachments of the governing power. So

amendment what nro you Bolnir to do with Itf
It will bo void , being in conlllct with the pn >
visions of the fourteenth amendment to the
constitution of the "United States.If it is
not In violation of that provision of the
United Stateseonstltutlon , why were you pro-
hlbltlonlMa not satisfied with a legislative
enactiiient to the same effect ) You had a
majority of the legialuturo , why didn't you
pass such a law I
"If the constitution of the United States Is
not in the way. what ii tlio object of the Joint
lo.-tolution lately Introduced by Senator Ulalr
of Massachusetts proposing nil amciuhncnt

"If the necessary consequence of the sale of
lUliior is the intoxication of tbo purchaser ,
because thu liquor can not bo used without

X-ll you , my prohibition friends , you have
rotten to thocml of your string. 'You had
better let w ; ll enough alone. You hiivo pot-
tcii as no.ir to absolute prohibition In the stuto
of Nebraska as yon will ever Ret.
"We h.ivo . in this state n U\v against trc.it-

shall IO lined $10 nnd shall also pay to the

in mean enough to prosecute a case of tlmt

hibition lawyer wouldn't do it. 1 don't believe -
liovo there is a prohibitionist in Douglas

plaint. You needn't say that the courts and
the ofllrcr.i of the court are opposed to the

"I doubt if you can Impanel a Jury in the
county that will ( hid a man fjuiltv of the
charge. Do you think that such n law would
ho nny moro binding or effective If embodied
In the constitution ! 1 inako this illustration
/or tlio purpose of demonstrating to you the
utter futility of enacting a law in restraint of
the liquor traffic or in restraint of any other
trade or calling , unless the enactment is the
necessary and unavoidable resultant of the
social forces then at play in organized so
ciety.
"I don't ' propose to show to you by letters
and statistic * how prohibition has or has not
prohibited in Iowa or Kansas. 1 simply ap
peal to your own observation and to your own
sense of reavu , expecting that voti will from
that arrive nl the inevitable conclusion that
the proposed amendment , if adopted , will fall
fur short of its object unless it is hacked up
by un overwhelming public opinion in its
favor : that its adoption by a hare or meager
majority will bo worse [ or tbo cause of tcai-
poranco thnn Its dofcat. "
Mr. 'Wolfei.b irger replied with the follow
ing arguments :
' The question is not , Docs prohibition pro
hibit f but Do the people of Nebraska want it
to prohibit } As far as its , constitutionality is
concerned , the supreme court declared in 1SS
that it was not an infringement on the con
stitution , It also hold that the question of
whether or not the llcjuor traflle should
bo regulated was for the legislature
and not for the courts to decide.
The question of the constitutionality of pro
hibition is no longer in Issue , and has not
bc-i-n for ton years. Chief Justice Taaey do-
cliired llfty years ago that if a state decided
that thcsaleof liquor was detrimental totho
public welfare ho saw nothing in the. . consti
tution to prevent regulating it or prohibiting
it altogether. This prohibitory law has been
passed under a democratic administration ,
and iifllnneil under republican rule.
It h the law whether viewed Irom n demo
cratic standpoint or from the
now-you-sco-it-
aml-now-you-don't ' position of the rcpubli-
cnns.
"As to constitutional and statutory prohi
bition , a loglihitiro act is a dolegativ'o act of
the people , mid the very next legislature
may sweep it nway , but no legislature
c'Ui cut out nr tear nway a constitutional
amendment.
"Iowa today is In a foment every two voars
over prohibition , because the supreme court
through a weak Imoecl Judge took the tf'clini
cal Unil'o and cut out the amendment and left
it subject to lofislativo enactment. It may bo
changed at any time. Kansas stands with
the principles of prohibition Imbedded
in hoi1 cuiir.titution. The legislature
may formulate a measure to
re-submit tlio question to the people , but they
will still have prohibition , and every oftleer
must 8\\onr to enforce that law.
' The reason we didn't press for a legisla
tive enactment is because it in epliemereal.
There arc rapid change.- * , and it may pass
a way , nnd wo want to place it hoyond
the reach of political demagogues and
thu outi-ide pressure of liquor sellers.
The IJlalr amendment is the result of the need
of constitutional amendment so wo may pro
hibit the sale of llijuor the Etuno as the state
trade.Vo want to prevent tbo manufacture ,
importation , exportation and saio of liqaor.

standing t-t the government wo ought to fall ,
and wo will fall unless wo can show this tc
the voters. There uro many and varied In
terests in Nebraska today , and I will show
you wliat effect prohibition would have upon
them by showing what it lias
done in three adjoining prairie states.
Dakota lias had prohibition by local option
since 1SS.1) . Keal estate values have increosot
and the jfcner.il prosperity of the stnto has
kept pace with It. Tuo growth of Iowa

issy. I don't consider it uecrssary to argue
that the liquor truftlo promotes nnd fosters
crime. Hx-Governor Dlngloy of Maine savs
thilt if prohibition doesn't prohibit it comes
as near it as the laws prohibiting arson and
burglary In this state. Asto Its being inlmi

successful business men is that It will only bo

"Senator I'roy of Maine writes that it has

that u man who would leave a state on tha
account would leave for the state's good. In
Dakota it hai .increased realty value

This matter will not bo adjudicated by Jufl-

Hoth Hprnfuira wore frequently applauded ,
nnd nt the close there was a loud demand tor
a vote , but the chair declared against one.

Me. , a wealthy citizen now sojourning iu
Boston ,
An explanation of the startling episode
was forthcomlngMiUer in the evening. Ac
cording to Oilmoro's statement ho was mar
ried to Miss H. A. Sanborn , n sister
of K. A. Snuborn , in Boston about
five years ago. 'Iho union was opposed
by Miss Sauborn's brother , who claimed Gilmore -
moro was a married man with a wife living
at the time in the west. In the face of this ,
Miss Sanborn came to this city , met her
alllnnced , who had arrived from California ,
i\nd \ they wore mndo man and wife.
At the tlmeofhcr innrrlago Miss. Sanborn
had in her own right about $100,000 , from her
father's estate. Her brother became so in-
conseu over the marriage that ho uttered the
direst threats against Gilmore. In refutation
of the charge th.it ho married Miss Sanborn
simply for her money , ho finally signed
away all claim to his wife's
property nnd she also surrendered her right
in it iu favor of her brother. This appeased
him somewhat , but a complete reconciliation
was never effected. Shortly after their nmr-
rlugo Mr. nnd Mrs. Gilinoro went to live iu
San Francisco.
Gilmore hud a line hardware business
and also an interest in a cattle ranch ,
and after u residence of two years in San
Francisco they moved to Hollister , Cal.
Eighteen months ago a daughter was
bora a bright , beautiful hiltl and
four months afterward Mrs. Gilmore
was stricken with disease nnd after
lingering a few days passed away. The be
reaved husband had the body embalmed nud
bent to Hollowell , Mo.- , for interment. About
two weeks ago , feeling he would like to visit
bis wife's tomb , he started from California
with the llttlo child ,
Ho arrived in Augusta , Mo. , last
Tuesday and on Wednesday procured
a carriage and drove over to the residence of
Ills brother-in-law , E. A. Snnboni , to inquire
where his wife's ' body had been interred. Ho
learned that Sanborii "V'as in Boston , but
Mrs. Sauboru allowed her daughter to ac
company Gilmore lo the cemetery. Ho had
purchased a quantity of flowers nud upon
reaching the tomb they were scattered upon
the mound. When they returned Mrs. San-
horn saidbho had telegraphed her husband
of her brother-in-law's arrival from
California nnd that ho would bo
.odwn to see him about the cstaet
on the following day.
Gilmore went bade to Augusta and yester
day , with the child , camo'to Ibis city. "Last
evening" Gilmore continued , " 1 called at
the Adams house to have an interview wi tk
Sanborn. Ho received mo with the greatest
cordiality , but when the conversation turned
upon the disposal of my late wife's estate lie
changed his smiles into frowns. The moro
ho talked the moro excited hebccamo. Seeing
there was no use trying to do anything with
him , 1 moved toward the door , but
ho sprang forward like a tiger , turned the
lock and placed the key in his pocket.
BJ"I was almost dumbfounded nnd inquired
what ho meant to do. Ho reached into tbo
back pocket of his trousers , nnd pulling out a
revolver , cocked it nnd placed the
muzzle within two inches of my head.
'You are not going to shoot mol1 came from
my trembling lips. 'Yes , if you do not sign
this paper waiving all right and title to your
wife's claim to my father's estate , give me
your daughter nud formally relinquish your
protection of her.1 I expostulated to
the oest of ray ability under the circum
stances , but finally , seeing lie was deter
mined to carry ills threat into execution ,
consented to dp ns ho wished ,
' Documents were signed , ho put up his re
volver nnd wo proceeded to leave the hotel to
go down to the Quincy house , when ho waste
to take possession of my llttlo girl. I was a
mere tool iu the man's hands , without power
or resistance. But just as wo were about to
witcr the elevator I stepped back , having real
ized whatl wns about to do , and declared I
would notearryouttho agreement. Ho hissed
into my ear what I might expect if his plans
were thwarted and pushed mo toward the door
of the elevator , but I again slopped back nnd
seeing that a party of gentlemen had been at
tracted by our conversation , asked for protec
tion. Sanborn was livid witli rngo and I real
ized that my life would not bo worth a cent if
he got at me again. By this
time the crowd had greatly increased.
As I believed Sanborn would go to my
room and carry off the child , 1 requested
these about mo to prevent him.
" 116 insisted upon going up when I de
manded police protection. An olliccr ap
peared shortly , but after listening to my
slory said it was a fnmhy row and ho had no
authority to Interfere. Sanborn in tlio mean
time disappeared. I intend to consult legal
advice in the city and fight lor my
rights. It is very strange I was without my
revolver , " ho went on , "as it is very seldom
I go about without a weapon. When San
born pointed his pistol nt mo I would have
given considerable to have been similarly
armed. " Gilmoro's narrative of the scene In
the hotel was confirmed by Sanborn , who
was seen late at night.
"In 18S5 , " hosnld , "fillmoro came to Hol
lowell and paid addresses to my sister. Ho
rapidly gained her affection , and after ho had
attained this object 1 learned that ho was
married. Ho claimed to have been divorced ,
but I can prove ho v n * not. Learning my
sister intended to marry him , I cxpostulnteu
with her , but to no avail. She was fust-hinted
with n man visiting in Hoston , but afterward
she mot ( Jilmoro. Ono day my mother said :
'Your.slster is going to marry Uilmoro to
morrow. Go to Hostou nud snvo her.1 I
went , but , arrived too .Into , for ttio ceremony
had been performed , although I am convinced
it was not legal. She returned homo with
mo , but not to stay long , for she shortly left
with him and went to California.
"My sister wns possessed ot 3100,000 from
our father's estate , whiph was in trust for
her in the hands ot John li. ISugbec , a dis
tant relative , and mysejf , Gilmore tried to
get hold of this property , but could not ,
This was live-years ago. Today , my mother
and sister dead I am thrown into this dis
tressing situation with an adventurer who
ruined my sister's life and brought
sorrow and tribulation into my family.
Sanborn mndo an linpottant admission when
ho was questioned by a reporter concerning
the details nf Gilmoro's visit to his room.
"Uugbco informed me , " ho said , that Gilmore -
more hail made threats against mo nnd ml
vised mo to arm myself. I followed his ml
vice today and purchased n bull
dog revolver , but I did not draw it
on Gtlmorc , nor did I make any
luovo to do so
" 1IU uctlon at the Quincy house wus n Mir-

Illinois Central Trouble.
Cmcuio , August 21. [ Special Teh-pro m
to Tun Dic. : ] Keprosentntlve trainmen from
every division of the Illinois Central railroad
system arrived la the city this forenoon to
attend a meeting held this afternoon. The
object ef the gathering is the formulation of
n petition addressed to the ofllcluls of the
Illinois Central douuudlng an Increase of
wages for all trainmen. The scale nf wages
of the employes of this branch of t'n- service
is : Hr.ikemen ? ! . " > , baggagemen $ , " > ' , colloct-
orflU and conduct oi-s T.'i per month. This
is a much lower scale than is paid hv other
ro.ids . and the men hiivo been agitating the
present movement for mi incruaso for a Irng
time. This question of wngea was talked of
previous to the recent strike on the Illinois
Central , but the. matter was temporarily
passed when the other dinh-ultv nii o. Tlu-ro
are two delegates fitiin each division ot the
road In attendance upmi the present meeting
and the demands for tin Increase of wages
come from all portions of the system. If thu
demands as formulated by the'so representa
tives are not , acceded to the nmU
tcr will bo referred to the general
e.xecutlvo coiunitttt-o of the federation of
railroad employes , which Is the only body
authorized to declare a ntriko of the train
men. ( ieaer.il . Mai.a'yr Beck is away on his
vacation , ns is also SnpiTlntcndent Sullivan ,
and the grievances of the men will have to bo
settled personally by PreMdcnt Fi'Oi , who Is
the only ono of the chief oltlcials ot the road
in the city. Mr. Fish refused to bo Inter
viewed , bulls giving the demands of the men
cnruful attention.
Said ono of the conductors : "Tho ad
vance wo ask is what all other
ro.uls pay thifir employes. Twelve
years ago our waires were Yodtveil to the
present llgurcs with a promise that the Cen
tral would ralso them when able. It is now
able to pay n.s standard wages and th.it It nil
wo nro asldng. We are not hunting a light ,
nnd I don't bclluvo we will have one. The
Central always treated us men well , and , al
though there may ho a compromise , I am sure
our wages will be materially advanced. "
'I he Number Who Will Strike.
Nr.w Yonis , Augiibfil. New York Central

Said Superintendent Amsdon of the Luke
Shore today : "Mi1. Sargent hit the nail on
the head from the standpolntot thcjmon when
he said it was a question as to whether the
New YorkCentr.il was making a light on or
ganized labor. If ho was convinced that the
road was making such a light ho would favor
a strike. This afternoon's dispatches clear
up this doubt when ho explicitly says he does
not bellovo the Now York Central Is lighting
organised labor , consequently ho must v.oto
against a strike at the Tcrro 1 1 mi to meeting
on Saturday , and , as the action of the supreme
premo council must ho unniilinous , the mat
ter seems to bo ended. "
