mittee clerks , three assistant Janitors and

been tnndo over the extravagance of the last
legislature in the matter of employes , nnd the
members should bo cautious.

Into the matter and thought moro employes
wcro needed. Two years ago 118 employes

McKesson thought It unwlso to reduce the
number of clerks.
Oukloy thought that efficiency and economy
should guide the boaio in the matter of
clerks.
The number of clerks wern reduced from
nineteen lo twelve and the rules adopted.
The speaker thought economy should bo
practiced wherever possible , but that It
should not go to the extent of impairing the

pointed to draft n bill for the relief of west
ern sufferers , made a partial report.

retaliation. Let us go ntthjo root of the mat
ter. Wo have the money in the treasury and
lot us appropriate it at once nnd without ask-
tng questions. [ Cheers from republicans nnd
iemocrats ] .
McKesson of Lancaster charged the Inde
pendents with temporizing , and declared they
jught to be ashamed of themselves to allow
the ilnys to drag by nnd not attempt to sfur-
nrsh any relief for thiilr suffering brethren.

The Quest , on of Free Passes.
LINCOLN , Nob. , Jan. 15. [ Special to THE
BnK. ) Nearly every member of the house
received a complimentary pass , "good until
March 81 , 1S911' from the Missouri Paclllo
railroad today. The members as a rule
quietly slipped the convenient pasteboards
into their pockets nnd awaited developments.
Koderman of Pliclps Introduced a resolu
tion calling attention to the ' 'courtesy , " nnd
resolving that the legislature would prefer
to bo favored with a reduction In freight
rates.
Sevorln ( rep. ) of Lancaster moved that the
resolution bo adopted , which led to nn In
teresting and protracted discussion.
Ford of Douglas wanted to know who had
passes ; ho for ono had been slighted.
dale ( Ind. ) of Hock thought that the ques
tion of live passes is a personal affair with
each member , ana protested against any such
resolution being forced upon the house.
Whttoof Cass said the resolution contained
something a bout the proper lime to receive
favors. If this is not the "proper timo" lot
the members pocUetthepassesaud wait until
It arrives , lUuiKhter.J
Soderman vigorously defended the resolu
tion. Ho said the members all know tbopur-
pose for which passes wcro issued. Let the
i railroads reduce their freight rates. Wo
members can pay our fore.
Ames ( dam. ) of Otoo They all seem to got
pastes around here , hut I have not scon any.
I bcllovo the best way to destroy an enemy f.Ls

Church IIowo rigorously defended the pass

tear thorn up , and not try to make a martyr
of himself , lu the words of the Immortal
Van Wyck. I bollovo lu foraging on the
enemy. 'Why should anyone ralso an issue
and gain u little cheap notoriety over u

from ttmo immemorial !
Ou the roll call to table tlio motion many
ra mher explained tholr votes.
Stobh'M ' ( lad. ) of Buffalo said ho sent his
I
pass to tbo secretary ot bki local alliance as a
curiosity ,
Stevens of Ftirnns thought the purpose of
the resolution was to obtain thOHcnsoof the
house on the subject , nnd therefore wni In
favor of 1U adoption.
A republican member remarked thnt as the
"courtesies of the company" had apparently
been con lined to the Independent sldo of the
house the evident intention of the donors waste
to place them whore they would do the most

Nob. , Jnn , 15. [ Special to Tim
Bp.r. ] The attorneys for the contestants for
state ofllccrs have issued a _ printed brief of
nlnety-flvo pages. The brief opens with the
following statement : .
"Tho importance of tho.questlons Involved
in thcsa contests , as well as the importance
of reaching a determination that will accord
with justice and right , would seem to Justify
us In presenting to your honorable body a
condensed abstract of the evidence taken by
the contestants , together with our views of
the la\v governing Investigations of this
nature. The evidence consists of many
thousand pages of typo-written matter ,
which , fertile purpose of facilitating a de
termination by the convention and lighten
ing thcj .burden of Its labors , wo have clani-
tlod and arranged under the several points
raised in our notice of contest and relied upon
In this hearing. "
The matter is classified under the follow
ing heads ;
"Ilusiness men nro boycotted. "
"Tho right of challenge denied. "
"Bribery Three thousand foreigners made
voters by bribery. Foreigner. ) induced to
vote for contestees for the cost of their
papers. "
"Tho. offlclals'of Omaha defy the law none
but republicans and democrats permitted on
the rcgistratioirand election boards , etc.
"Ineligibility of James li Boyd- "
"Voting by card. "
"Registration law violated" ( in Grand
Island. )
"Organized violence at the polls ; " ( thirty-
six pages of it. )
"Norfolk falls to register. "
"Southern Jlcthods in South Omaha. "
"Conspiracy" ( In Omaha. )
"A stuffed ballot box Omaha has 10,000 ,
loss votes in December. 1800 , than on Novem
ber 4 , 1800. "
The brief cloaca with this argument :
"The elections In the Omaha cities are so
tainted with intimidation , fraud , corruption
nnd ballot box sinning that It is an absolutely
hopeless task to separate the honest vote
from the dishonest. There Is but ono way to
declare nn honest result of the election in
this state , and that is by leaving out the vote
of the two Omaha cities. "

Neb. , Jan. 15. ( "Special to THE
BKE. ] Senator Ham's ' bill providing for de
positories for state nnd county funds Is likely
to provoke a lively though possibly a quiet
struggle. It provides that funds belonging :
to the stnto shall bo deposited in banks at the
Capital city to bo selected by the treasurer.
The bauks must give a bond satisfactory to
the treasurer , governor , secrot.iry of state and
attorney nenei-.il in double the amount of the
< lespoit , and guaranteed by lirosureties , but
such bond will not release the treasurer or
his bondsmen from liability. The selected
banks must pay to the state "such fair and
equitable interest on all dally balances * * *
as may bo agreed upon between such banker
or banks and the treasurer , which interest
shall in 110 case bo at less rate than 4 per
cunt. "
In the case of county funds a banker banks
within the comity must bo selected by a
board consisting of the county clerk , clerk of
the district court and the chairinan of the
board of county commissioners , or in counties
having townstiln organization by three super
visors appointed by the chairman , nfter ad
vertising for bids for such deposits. Such
funds nro to bo subject to check , nro not to
oxccd the capital stock of the banks , anatho
banks must givoa suitable bond. The depos
itories must pay a rate of interest agreed on ,
but not less than 4 per cent. In counties
without sultablo banks the law is not com
pulsory-upon the commissioners.

Tlio Concurrent HoHolutlon.
LINCOLN' , Nob. , Jan. 15. [ Special to TIIK
Bun. ] A gentleman who-stands very near
to Governor Boyd says ho will not intcrposo
a captious veto on tho' concurrent resolution
fixing the time of the joint convention , but
ho will insist that everything bo regular.
A half dc/en bills have been Introduced to
repeal the law creating the ofllco of oil In
spector.
Among -today's ' visitors wcro ex-Hopro-
rcscutativo Snyder of Omaha nnd Senators
Burton of Orleans aud. Lindsay of Bcavei
City.Walt
Walt Seoley has been chosen as private
secretary to Lieutenant Governor Mclklojohn
because of his splendid knowledge of parlia
mentary rules.
Every Independent member of the house
except Gale put himself on record in favor of
the wild scheme of- Senator Stanford to loan
money direct to the people.
Mr. Brcdoson of Polk has Introduced a
bill which limits the ownership of land to MO
acres , and provides that on J"onuary 1 , 189(1 ( ,
all lands in excess of this amount held by
any ono person shall escheat to the stato.
When the resolution came up to place or
ders for supplies for the drouth stricken suf
ferers with St. Louis and Kansas City mer
chants. Mr. Stcrnsdorff remarked that ho
thought Nebraska had been advertised
enough in the last ten days.
Senator Shea of Omaha was prevented
from taking : part in the contest over the
journal of the joint convention by the In
struction of his physician , who ordered him
not to tax his volco for fear of injuring It
permanently. The senator has recovered
and is now taking an active part in the busi
ness of the senate.
The chief engrossing clerk of the house ,
who draw his little resolution allowing him
to got his lingers Into the public treasury aud
draw his dailysuuply of stamps , is wonder
ing what struclc him. On motion of the
vigilant White , aided by a largo number of
Independents , his scheme was knocked out
by a decisive majority.
Frank White of COSH Is fast earning the
title ot "watchdog of the treasury. " Today ,
when .Tohnson introduced n resolution ex
tending the privilege of drawing stamps nnd
dally papers to the chief enrolling mid chief
engrossing clerks , White was ou his feet In ,
a moment , with the remark that if It would
bo lu order he wanted to amend by Including
all persons who might apply for the same.
As this is not hi order , I move to table the
motion.
Governor 1'cuk'n
Minisox , "Wis. , Jan , 13. Both houses of
the Wisconsin legUlaturo assembled today

amendments to the election laws ; npprcpro-
priatlon for the world's fair exhibit ; repeal
of the Bennett compulsory school law. Oov-
ornor Peck strongly characterized the latter
as an arbitrary and unjustifiable Interference
with pnrcntial rights , individual freedom and
liberty of conscience. Its real principle , bays
he , ls not compulsory attendance , nor a wlso
advancement of popular education , but nn as
sertion of "strong government" theory ns op

rutrolmnn Norrl * was also shot and seriously
wounded by J. II Koblnson.
The bloody cnltray is incldentnlly connected -

progress. HawlcJ * and Norris had heard of
some trouble at tha legislative hall nnd were
on tnclr way to Investigate it. At the cor
ner of Klghth and Larimer , near the hull
and opposite the Windsor , they met

who had been appointed deputy sher
iffs. Some uncomplimentary words ensued ,
when McCoy and Robinson fired with the

Hawley wes taken to the Windsor and
physicians summoned. The bullet entered
his loft side , under the lower rib , passing
trunsrcrsly' through the spinal column and
lodging in the muscles of the back. lie is
still alive , but slaking , nnd his death is ex
pected nt any hour.
Patrolman Norris has a wound in the
shoulder blade , painful but not serious.
Tlio nifidr is regarded hero ns a cold

was arrested and McCoy went to the county
jail and gave himself up.
A ItKMH.OCK ,
It is AHRiircd by a Caucus Hulo of
TOPEKA , Kos. , Jan. 15. [ Special Telegram
to THE BKE. ] The Jealousies existing among
the senatorial aspirants before the people's
party lias resulted in the adoption of a now
caucus rule , which will nmko it impossible
to agree on a candidate nnd assure a dead
lock. It has been agreed that no senatorial
candidate will bo considered ns the caucus
nominee until eighty-three legislators or a
joint ballot majority unite on him. Unless
the rule is broken , It will do away with cau
cus dictation. When the nlllaucomembers de
cided at their llrst conference to abldo by the
decision of the majority , raauy of the repub
lican leadersadmltted that Ingalh' chances had
gone glimmering. The now rule has , In n
measure , restored confidence , and hope is
entertained that a deadlock will ensue , which
will result in the election of a republican.
Every member of th legislature received
an anonymous circular tills mornlug calling
attention to the caucus rule and protesting
against it. The various alliance candidates
have evidently formed a combination ngaln t
Judge W. A. Pfeffer , editor of the Kansas
Farmer , nnd the defeat of tbo agreement to
have a majority rule was for tlio purpose -
pose of shelving ; him. Pfcller had llfty
votes pledged to him on first
ballot and would have been nn easy winner ,
if the politicians in the party had not con
spired to defeat him. None of the members
of the allhuicc , uuiler tlio now rule , will bo
bound by the caucus ai It is Intended simply
to confer until a lenMatlvo majority unites
on some ono. Judge Prank Dostor , Marion

It is n. 1'Yoe Ooinnio Measure , Pure
and Slinp'o.
"WASHINGTON , Jan. 15. The silver bill , n
passed by the senate last night , Is a frco
coinage measure pure and simple , free from
all national bank nnd bond legislation con
tnincd in the financial bill , It repeals tha
section of tlio act of July 1(5,1890 ( , ropuirint ,
the purchase of & 1MO,000 ounces of sllvei
bullion. With the exception of slight technical
cal amendments and the omission of the pro
vision for covering into the treasury the na
tional bank redemption fund the bill is like
that passed by the scuato hist session , which
was the basis of the compromise era
bodied in the present law. The sliver
bill has been , under the rules of the house
referred to the comniltteeon coinage , weights
and measures , of which "Wichham of Ohio Is
chairman. Thnsilvcr men.in the house have
been actively engaged in missionary worn iu
the interest of free coinage. They are san
gulno of ultlmato success and are certain that
the bill cannot bo kept indefinitely in com
mittee nnd that within a reasonable time the
coinage committee will order a report made
notwlthstandlng'nll efforts to prevent the bll
having an opportunity forconsiderntloii.
Bartlno of Nevada , ono of the outspoken
republican advocates of frco coinage on the
committee , said today thnt ho was confident
of getting the silver bill back to the house
He thought the soutlmcnt towards silver hai
grown more favorable than it was hutsessioi
and that n good many republicans were no
Inclined ; lo underrate tbo intlucnce sliver bac
on tlio recent elections.
The Star says : "From the general tenor
of conversation among the silver majority i
was apparent that they resrurdca their vie
lory as merely duo to the force of nu Irresist
ible popular demand , which they bcllovo wil
muko itself felt in a similar manner in tin
house aud ultimately iu the executive man
sion ,
Moro cautious nnd conservative friends o
silver are inclined to think the action of yesterday
torday will prove to be nu unfortunate thing
for the country. It may servo to satisfy th
strong craving of the woat nud south for
llnnncial relief , and thus prevent recourse to
moro extreme measures in the way of sub-
treasury schemes , Hat money , etc. , which are
agitated so seriously ny the farmers' ' nil I unco
nnd rural political agitators in the interior of
the country. Tlio defeated party takes the
matter calmly , but. rather gloomily.

ays : "So fnrns I have been able to review ,
.iy indications are fully and completely con-
rmcd. Iteganllngthe curative effects of tbo

ho comparatively short duration of its np-

hat In not n lew eases a euro has boon estnb-
Ished. During the past six weeks I had the
pportunlty to bring together farther ox-

incnostlc application of the remedy In the

Ifty sufferers from tuberculosis of the

xtcnd my study of the remedy beyond the
leid where it has hitherto been applied , and
f po siblo to apply the principle underlying
ho discovery to other discuses. " Then fol-
ows a lengthy description of the way In

"Tills task naturally demands a full knowl-
idgo of the remedy. I therefore consider
hut the time has arrived when the requisite

This Is done in what folknvs. Before going

"If a healthy guinea pig bo Inoculated with
, ho pure cultivation of German kultur of
'uberculobaecilli , the wound caused by the
uoculatlon mostly closes over with a sticky
natter and appears la Its early days to heal.
Only after tea or fourteen days a hnrd
lodulc presents Itself , which , soon breaking ,
'orms an ulceratinasore which continues until
the animal dies. Qjlto n different condition
of things occurs when a guinea nig , already
suffering from tuberculosis is inoculated.
iVn animal successfully inoculated from four
to six weeks before is best adapted for this
mrposo. In such an animal the small in-
dentcntlon assumes the same sticky covering
nt the beginning , but no nodule forms. On
ho contrary , on the day following or the second
end day after the inoculation , the place
where tbo lymph was injected shows a strange
change. It becomes hard and assumes a
darker coloring which is not con lined to the
Inoculation spot , but spreads to the neighbor
ing parts until it attains a diameter of from
.OS to 1 centimeter. In a few dajs it
jccomcs moro and moro manifest that the
skin thus changed is nccrotic , finally falling
> 1T , leaving a Hat ulccration which usually
heals rapidly and permanently without any
cutting into the adjacent lymphaticglands. .
Thus the Injfcted tubercular bacilli quite
differently affet the skin of a healthy guinea
pig from ono alTocted with tuberculosis. This
effect is not exclusively produced with living
mcillll , but is also observed with the d ad
mdllii , being thu , same whether , as I discov
ered by experiments at the outset , the bacilli
nro killed by a somewhat prolonged
application of a low temperature , or
boilinghuat , or by moans of
certain chemicals. This peculiar fact , fol-
.owed up in all directions , and tbh f urtlier
result wns obtained ; that killed pure cultiva
tions of pure bacilli after rinsing in water
night bo injected jn great quntitics under a
loalthy guinea pig's skin without anything
occurring beyond local snpperatlon. "
1'rof. Koch horo' ' interpolates a note that
such Injections ibolotif * to the simplest and
surest means of producing suppuration , free
from livliiR bacteria.
'Tuberculosis guinea pigs , on the other
hand , are killed by the injection ot very
small quantities of such diluted cultiva
tions. In fact , within six to forty-
eicht hours , according to the strength
of the dose. An injection which is
notsutlicient to produce tlio death of tncfi
mal may cause extended necrosis to the skin
in the vicinity of the place of injection. If
the dilution is still further dilntcduntil it is
scarcely visibly clouded , the animals inocu
lated remain alive and a noticeable improve
ment in their condition soon supervancsIf
the injections nro continued at intervals of
from ono to two days , the ulccratingMnocu-
latlon wound becomes smaller and linally
sc.irs over , which otherwise it never does.
The size of the swolen , lymphatic glands is
reduced ; the body becomes bettor nourished
aud the morbid process ceases unless it bos
gone too far , in which case tbo animal per
ishes from exhaustion. By this means the
basis of a curative process against tuberculosis
losis was established.
Against the practical application of such
dilutions of dead tubercle bacclll , lucre pre
sented itself the fact that the tubercle bac-
cllll are not absorbed at the inoculation
point- ; , nor do they disappear in another way ,
but for along time remain unchanged and
engender greater or smnllci' sumiuratlvo
fnci. Anything , therefore , intended to exer
cise n hoaiing effect on thn tuberculous pro
cess must bo a soluble sub > tance which would
bo lixiviated to a certain extent by tho. Jiuids
of the body floating around the tubercle bac-
cilliand be transferred , in a fairly rapid man
ner , to tlio luico of the body while the sub
stance producing suppuration apparently ro-
mulns behind in thotubcrculurboccilll ordis-
solves , but very slowly. The only important
point was therefore to induce , outside the
body , the process going on Inside , if possible ,
and to extract from the tubercular
bacilli nlone the ciirativo substance. This
demanded time and toil until I linally suc
ceeded with the aid of a 10 to SO per cent so
lution of glycerine in obtaining an effective
substance from the tubercular bacilli. With
the lluid so obtained 1 made further experi
ments on animals and linally on human bo-
Ings. These fluids were given to other phy
sicians to enable them to repeat the experi
ments. The remedy which is used in the
new treatment consists of n glycerine extract -
tract derived from the pure cultivation ot
tuborculo bacilli. Into the simple
extract there naturally passes from
the tubercular Dacilli , besides the
effectivesubslancos , all the other matter
soluble in CO percent of glycerine. Consequently
quently it contained u certain quantity ol
mineral salts , coloring substancc-i nud other
unknown extr.ictlvo matter. Some of these
substances can bp removed from it tolerably
easy. The effectvo ! substance is Insoluble li
absolute alcohdr. It can bo precipitated b }
It , though not mtftibd in a pure condition , bu
still combined with tlio other extractive matter
tor which is liuCwiso Insoluble In alcohol
The coloring matter may also bo removed
rendering it possible to obtain from the extract
tract u colorless.dry substance containing th <
effective princploJ.n ! n much more coucen
t rated form than the original glycerine sotu
tions. For application In practice this purili
cation of the glycerine extract offers no ad
vantage because the substances so eliminated
nrounesscntlali&jrthe human organism. The
process of imijUcjjtlon would make the cost
of the remedy ynnecessarlly high.

added Mr. Harrison , "In my view ,
thcro Is very tittle uhanco for the election of

Homo republican votes lu 1S31 nnd perhaps
Uoaernl Palmer can get some. I don't think
the republicans will over vote fora Farmers'

the suicidal policy of abandoning their own

let the matter remain undecided until the

General Miles received Colby nt the agency
yesterday In a very hearty manner , warmly
th.wklnB him for tlio services rendered by
tlio Nebraska national puard , during rei-ont
perilous situation. The presence of the state

needed nnd appreciated by the settlers but
had relieved him of great mental anxiety , be
cause ho had realUed the danger to the set
tlers bcforo the Indians were hemmed
lu at close quarters as ut pres
ent. Ho was willing , further , to
concede that the presence of the militia
dad exercised a good inlluonco toward n peace-
fill settlement of. tlio difllculty with the In
dians , knowing as they must that tholr
source of supplies amongst the settlements
was thereby shut off.
General Colby returned hero from this
conference with a most positlvo opinion that
nil danger to the settlement * was ever for
Lho present , at least , and probably , for all
