D. E. Olcnson , the well Itnown coal denier ,
is being pinched by the financial pressure ,
and his business Is being taken In charge by
his creditors. Wednesday evening ho stopped
into the superior court nnd confessed Judg
ment In six different cases on notes duo to
his sister , Miss Mury Glcason , the aggregate
i amount being about.I,7TO. It appears that
i two ' has been furnishing him money from
j time to time forsevenl years past nnd has
been taking hU notes for the same. In order
to protect her ho confessed
j i incut In her favor , seeing that
I impatient j , creditors would soon bo-
1 gin pressing him. Vestcrday morning
) I the Chicago &Ilock Island railway attached
! n largo number of cars of coal , about $ : i,000
worth. In order to secure a bill of $ l,4'jr , > for
f rclcltt. There was also Illcd in the record

on his real estate to secure the payment of
three notes of 51,000 each , given to Olllcor ft
1'nsoy. Other claims will now come rushing
In , the ngjcgnto amount of which is not now
to bo ascertained.
Mr. Glcason accounts for his financial
troubles in various ways. lie has invested
largely In real cstutc , mid most of this being
I mortgaged ho has been compelled to pay
largo amounts of interest and taxes in order
to hold for the auvunces which ho was cer
tain would come. Then tlio coal business
for two or tin co seasons past lias been very
unprofitable , his losses last season being
$1.V)0. ) Tlio slowness ot collections has been
the immediate cnuso of bringing the
crisis , It being almost Impossi
ble for him to secure cash of
customers who for years have always paid
l.lm promptly on presentation of bills. Botli
last season and this Benson ho stocked up
heavily , hoping that there would bo a change
in the roil market by which ho would bo able
to retrieve former losses , but the weather has
been against the consumption of coal , and
prices have nut advanced as ho hoped. Ho
was unable to state the amount of liabilities
nnd assets , but is confident that thonsssts
are at least ? J,000 mow than Is required to
pay off all the Indebtedness , provided the as
sets are not disposed of at lorccd sale. With
the light activity In real estate and the prob
ability of largo coin t costs and shriiikago the
outlook Is not very fnvo.iablo lor theli being

On tlio Ooltf Wor'd.
Marshal Temploton had his tender feelings
deeply stirred yesterday bv the appeals of a
bright little thirteen-year-old boy , who came
to the station tlio night bcforo and applied to
tbo night man for a place to stay all night.
Instead of putting him up stairs In the rooms
devoted to the use of the misscellaneous
crowd of vagrants and lodgers , lie was given
a birth down stairs. The usual custom of
turning the lodgers out each morning bofoia
breakfast was also not observed In his case.
Ho was given a hearty breakfast and de
tained until the marshal came to his olllco
yesterday morning , lu response , to the mar
shal's ' kind Inquiries the llltlo fellow told a
very pitiful story of hardship and destitu
tion , Ho told It in BO straightforward and
trvthful n manner that every word
bore the stamp of truth , and
awakened a great ; deal of sympa
thy for him. Ho walked all the way from
Vlllisca in the rain and slush , und after three
or four davs of hard tramping , during which
ho became bewildered nnd lost hi a snow
storm and passed twenty-four hours without
food or seeing a lire , ho reached Council
Bluffs , almost exhausted , his shoes worn out
and affording no protection ntjill to his feet ,
nnd his clothing rout and ragged and frozen
around his body. Both of his parents were
dead , und ho had no nearer relatives than uu
aunt In Villlsca and a cousin in Deadwood ,
With the former relative ho had como to Iowa
froui Ohio a short time iigo. She was a
widow , nnd her own family wns more than
she could provide for , and the llttlo fellow ,
whoso nunio Is Chester Wilson , found a tem
porary homo with a farmer , who scorns to be
a good deal of a crank on the subject of edu
cation. In addition to the daily chores tlio
boy was given to do ho wns also given u scho
lastic tusk that would | mvo been u formidable
one if ho hud been permitted to devote all of
hib'tlmo to study. The chief condition of the
boy remaining with the well meaning fanner
was that ho should never full In the perform
ance of his educational stint. Some of the
arithmetical problems given bv the fanner ,
who was evidently a pedlgoguic crank , nnd
remembered by the boy , wore sufficient to
puz/lo all tlio marshal's fourco , and If the
marshal had made a rule that none of the
men who could not solve the problems should
remain on the force there would bo several
vacancies Immediately. Ono evening lust
week the boy failed , and tils iron-clad In-
strutor Insentinciitly thrust him out of doors.
Believing that his only friend eupablo of
helping him wns the Deadwood relative , the
uravo-heurted youth started out to Invade
the Indian country and hunt him up. Mar
shal Toinpleton kept the boy mull jcstcrd.iv
afternoon , and then sent him down to the
Homo for the Friendless with n note of ex
planation to tlio munagor. Ho was at once
admitted and taken care of and will have an
opportunity to get the education ho seems to
crave without impossible restrictions.
Great success.

Two Attachment Cnss.
Yesterday Max Myer & Co. of Omaha ,
through ttielr attorneys , West & Wheeler ,
swore- out an attachment In the superior
court upon the stock of cigars and fixtures
at the Ogdou house cigar stand. The prop
erty belonged to John Boohn , who also pus
the barber shop In the hotel. The attachment
hno
ment was to secure a claim held by the
Omaha linn of $142.10. An effort was also
nuulo to attach the barber shop property
but it was found that'A. A. Clark & Co. !
held a chattel mortgage upon it covering
everything , and that portion of the attach- ,
nioutwas withdrawn. Landlord Dooley of
the Ogden house also filed a landlord's lien
on the stock and fixtures , nud under the
Iowa law this will tnko precedence of all
other claims. D. J. Hutchlnsou also claims
to have n bill of sale covering everything.
The case will bo heard during the February
term.
J. U. Grcnawalt , a driver In the employ of
Oliver Maggard , un Omaha man who runs > a I
string of transfer wagons between the two I
cities , swore out un attachment In Justice ;

The , House CoiiHlilcrs tlio Shipping
DIM In Committee of tlio Whole.
WASHINGTON , Jon. 7. In the house today
tbo senate bill Increasing from fifty to
seventy the number of army officers who
may bo detailed to military colleges was
passed.
The house then wont Into committee of the
whole on tlio shipping bill.
Mr. Herbert of Alab-itm opposed ttio meas
ure because It proposed nn Indiscriminate
subsidy to vessels of every character In the
foreign trade. It was a natural result of the
McICInley bill.
Mr. Dingloy 'of Maine , reviewing the do-
cailonco of American shipping Interests , suld
that in such condition as the country newfound
found itself , with only IBJtf per cent of the
foreign carrying trade , with Great Britain
entrenched on every ocean route , It was ob
vious that It was utterly out of the power
of private Individuals without assist
ance in some direction to" discharge the
shipping of Great Britain , It was said
that the bill would.not do for our merchant
marine what was claimed for it. Wo could
Judge of that by what n similar policy had
done for Franco with less m.iritlmo people
than those of the Uultcd States. Within
five years from the establishment of the sub
sidy system the steam tonnage of France hud
doubled. With the widest extent of coast
known to any nation , the United State * ) could
reap a benefit from subsidies fur greater than
any other nation. Italy adopted the subsidy
system in li > S. ) , nnd In four years her steam
marine Increased 43 per cent. The maximum
expense of the bill for the lirst
year would bo $2,000.000 , , of which all
but about $ ! 0,00J ( ) ( or ? IUOOJl , ) would como
from the postage and tonnage dues. The
greatest amount of oxtxmdlturo that would
bo needed In ono year wouln bo ? 7,0KX)0. ( ) ( )
after which tlio rate of payments would
steadily diminish.
Mr. Dockety of Missouri said three causes
constituted nn effectual barrier against any
attempt to restore the American carrying
trado. The first was the diltercuco of cost
between American nnd foreign vessels ;
second , the greater running expenses Ameri
can vessels wore under , and third , the haisli
and restrictive features of our navigation laws ,
exacting heavy tonnage dues , consular fees
and other duos. Furthermore , the republi
can policy of exclusion of imports was utwaf
with the Interest of the American carrying
trado. Ho opposed subsidies nnd nil protection
to special Industries , nnd asked Air , ITiirnu-
har , chairman of the committee , how much
the Pacific Mail steamship company , which
ni one session corrupted the employes of the
house , would get.
Air. Tarquhar replied that It would get the
same as all steamship companies.
Mr. Dockery said that was no answer , and
the probability of the passage of the bill.
Mi * . Fnr < iuhnr warmly replied that If it
were so ho wns glad of It. and hoped that the
stock of every American company would in-
ero.iso in value.
Mr. Uoulccry , retorting , said ho wanted to
take the fact home to the fanners of the ' .vest
that $ " > , IXX,000 were being taken frotn the
treasury \ to sustain and support a few Now
England ahlii owners. CJeorgeGould , no un
derstood , wnsono of tho"lubotltigmen" to oo
bcneflttcd. Mr. Dockory then invited atten
tion to the restrictive scope of the reciprocity
ndvoratcd by Secretary lilulnc. So fur us the
furmer wns concerned tlio defect tliat was
fatal to the subsidy bill was nlllto fatal
to reciprocity. The farmer could derive no
benefit from reciprocity because tlio South
American countries hud almost every article
necessary for their own consumption. Lot
the country return to that propitious policy
under which It explored every sea and cast
anchor In every harbor. Divested of nrti-
liclal restriction , our commercial marine
could renew and assert Us importance upon
the deep.
Pending further debate , the committee
rose and the house adjourned.
MMIIttP.
, .Tan. 7. In the senate'today
the conference report on the printing do-
llclency oill was agreed to ,
The financial bill was taken up and Mr.
Daniels spoke in favor of free coinage.
Mr. Plumb followed. Ho credited the silver
act of the last session with having had the
shortcomings , its effect on the Immediate
situation hud been of : i munificent character.
Ho did not share the fears of tha senator
from Ohio ( Sherman ) as to what would
happen from the free coinage of silver. Perhaps -
haps ho was not ns sensitive on that
point as he might have been if ho
had not so often heard similar forbodinps
from the same quni tor that have not bcim
realized. Ho ( Plumb ) was not nblo to give
his support to the bill reported by the finance
committee. Ho was onposud to the first sec
tion , providing for too purchasoof $12,000,000
of silver. It would of course add that much
money to circulation , built would Inevitably
Dear on Its fuco the disposition to help a cer
tain class of people at the expense of the
treasury. . It was in the Interest of our trade
and of honest money that the country should
establish ns noirly as possible a parity be
tween gold and silver. The population of
the country was Increasing at Ibo rate of
'J per cent , whllu business was
Increasing at the rate of 8 per cent. Clrculn- .
tlon should have relation to both population
and business. There should bo International
bi-inetulism. Ho did not hold that the free
coinage of silver was a panacea for all ovlls ,
but ho did contend that It was a wise ana
much needed stop In the right direction.
Mr. Hlscock spoke against free coinage.
The people ho represented Imd never believed
that the free coinage of silver would place
that motat on a parity with gold.
Mr. Sawyer moved to go Into executive
session.
"Ob , " said Mr. Edmunds , "let us take a
vote on this motion now. "
Mr. Stewart expressed a desire that an
oarlv day bo fixca for a vote say Saturday.
Mr. Edmunds , in a tone of bitter sarcasm
The session is drawing to an end and this
most important ami Immaculate bill ought to
bo got into a form of law at the earliest pos
sible moment. The country , of course , Is
suffering for It * Disaster and bankruptcy
are said to bo Impending , and therefore wo

CIHCVOO , Jan. 7. A report was current In
this city yesterday that an amicable .settle
incut of the trouble between the Union Pacific
and th'j Hock Island nnd Milwaukee nnd St.
Paul roads regarding the use of the brldgo
across the Missouri river between Council
Bluffs and Omaha had boon made at a confer-
enco hold In Now York yesterday morning
between Jay Gould , Sidney Dillon. II. It.
Cable1 , Ilowcll Miller and others Interested
in thoio roads. It was saldQould had agreed
to allow the Hock Ishintl and Milwaukee
& St. 1'nul roads to USD the Omaha
brldgo pending n decision of the courts ns to
tun legality of the contr.ict between the three
roads , Until orders nro given to permit the
running of the Hock Island nnd St. Paul
trains across the brldgo It Is Impossible to tell
what truth there is in the reports regarding
the settlement of the dlfllculty , ns the mag
nates In New York nro exceedingly uncom
municative nnd decline to mnko any state
ment regarding it. The opinion pre
vails in railway circles hero thnt some
sort of nn agreement has been reached be
tween the contesting factions , but which sldo
backed down Is n matter or much doubt.
Sono elnim that Gould has succeeded In bull-
do/.tng the Kock Island and St. Paul people
by pretending to enter Into an offensive nnd
defensive treaty with the Atchlson , Topeka
ifc Bintii Fo nnd Denver & Hlo Grande ,
which would shut out nil the Chicago west
ern roads from pirticlpitlon in Puctilo coast
through traffic. It is clulmea that the Santft
Fo is willing to do anything Jay Gould may
demand of it.
That some action hns been taken in Now
.York regarding tbo Omaha bridco trouble Is
Indicated by the fact that the talk about
smashing the proposed agreement for pooling
the traffic of western roads into smither
eens if Gould docs not rccoijnlzo the contract
made by the Union Pacific with the IlocK
Island and St. Paul roads , is no longer Indulged
lu. President Cable Is ropoited to have said
to an Iiitorvloworiu Now York yesterday that
the western railroad agreement would un
questionably bo carried out. "Wo shall , " ho
is reported ns saying , "certainly use nil our
Influence nnd the other western roads will
ngreo to the plan which will establish and
maintain higher rates. The ngreemant will
bo lasting. The Omaha bridge matter is of
secondary Importance and 111 right itself. "
President Miller of the Milwaukee & St.
Paul Is also reported as saying that nil ob
stacles in the way of the adoption oPtho now
gentlomon's agreement by the presidents to
morrow had been removed , and there was no
longer any doubt thatlt would bo adopted.

Cincvoo , Jun , 7. General Manager St.
Jonn of the Rock Island road say ? that no
further attempts have bion ; made to cross
the Union Pacific brldgo at Omaha with

Young , who is in Now York city , that ho has
succeeded ill getting $50j ( < )0QOO ) in American
capital pledged for the construction of a line
from this point td Chihuahua , Mexico. From
what Is given out It appears that the report
may bo considered reliable. Young bos had
this sclieino In his mind for a long time.
The proposed route , as near as can bo as
certained , is direct south through Utah ,
opening up a territory hitherto untouched ,
thence through Arizona , crossing the Ulo
Grnndo at some point not yet decided upon.
In the original plan , which Young has formu
lated , the line will also extend north connect

ing up hitherto undeveloped mining country.
Whether or not the money pledged will bo
used in building this line is not known. The
advices from Now York are very meagro and
the only statement that can bo obtained is
from these who have heard Young discuss
his plans. The money , however , is certain

Ing.Toots
Indl Toots of Beadle thought the bouse could
dispense with chaplain unless ho would servo
without compensation. ' AlcCormack of Hyde
retorted that as the candidate possessed n rea
so sonable amount of brains ho would expect a
re amount of compensation.
The senatorial ' situation today remains lit
tli changed from what yesterday's ' report
ga 'o It , The democrats and independents
claim the earth. It looks as though they had
some ground for It. The Moody men nro still
persistent in announcing Aloody's ' expecta
tion of winning , notwithstanding the loss In
the house. While the democrat and Inde
pendent organization of the house can hardly
bo said to bo In hh favor it may bo his work
ers will nrcfit by experience and mnko more
sura : of their men ncx't time. It Is claimed
Moody has members enough pledged to elect
him. Trlpp workers nro highly exultant
nnd ! while not claiming much , quietly saw
wood.
The independents seem to bo In n lloundor.
E Delegate Matthews h some talked of as a
candidate , also ox-Speaker Young of Sioux
Falls will probably take some liulcutindcnt
strength. [ There Is llttlo'cnthuslnsm or inter
est over Iliudeu'scandidrtcy. U would hconi tome
mo Plcklor has more friends In both bodies
than any candidate so far named outsldo of
Moody j , and Alullctte Is almost , as much talked
of. He hus many strong friends ,
President Loucks ot tlio farmers' nllituico
arrived last night , and Is assisting with the
best advice to secure the election of an Inde
pendent. Loucks is in very feeble health.
The rcpuollcan caucus to determine n
choice for sonntor
will bo held In'a day or so. The republicans
nro walking with the speaker for fair repre
sentations on the elections committee.
It Is rumored that the speaker will only
give them two out of seven of this committee.
It would hardly bo lu keeping with bis nn-

Alexander on behalf of the democrats nomi
nated Crafts for speaker ; ICcllur for republi
cans nominated Hunter , nifd Cockrcll for the
Farmers' Mutual Benefit association nomi
nated Alooro of AVnyno. Cockrcll's ' speech
wns surprise to these who expected
a repetition of * worn out platitudes. Ho said
ho would not present his candidate bucnuso
ho bad been known as n member of a corpor
ation , or n corporation attorney , not because
he 1 : bad been in ofllco or been n seeker for of
llco , but because ho was ono of thogro.it com
mon people who will favor legislation that
will give prosperity to the whole people of
the state. On roll call Hunter \oted for
Mooro. The latter returned the compliment

to insure his election. Ho made n

DISCUSSING \ LiA\V.
Tlio Police ncllcfHsnclntlan
'Toward fjogisliillvo Kollof ,
The Police Ilollef association mot last night
nnd considered the bill which ulll bo intio
ducod in the legislature socking to change
the law affecting the relief association.
Thoprlnclp.il points la the present law
that are objectionable are the plan of assess
ment and the authority plven the board of
flro nnd police commissioners with reference
to the disposition of the funds of the
association. The changes that will bo SUR-
gostcd will take the authority governing the
disposition of the funds eut of the hands of
the board of flro and police commissioner.- !
and leave It entirely with the association.
The manner of assessment will bo per
capita Instead of a per cent of the salary ro-
colvcd. At present each ofllcer Is assessed
ono per cent of his salary each month
nnd that assessment ROCS Into
the relief association fund. The plan recom
mended In the new bill will bo to assess each
ofllcer 60 cents per month. Inasmuch ns the
benefits received from the association In rase
of sickness or of death are the same for every
member of the association , It is thought
to be n moro Just and equitable
plan to assess them all alike , rather
than by percenta o of salary , for tlio
salaries vary and consequently the umounlH
paid , under tno present law , by these having
the higher tmlaritis are much greater than
the amounts paid by these drawing the low
cst salaries ,
The association will mcot next Moimn
night aguin to consider tha bill In detail anil
