The fire department was called out yester

fore the lire was extinguished , and in the
meantime all the furniture in the room had
been moro or less injured by the llamas ana
the water. The damage will amount to about
1100 , which Is fully covered by Insurance.
The lower part of the house was vacant , the
funilly who had been living there having

\\hatwlllprobablyprovo to be one of the
richest catches of the season , so far as crooks
are concerned , was made yesterday after
noon. Ohlccr Kelley spotted a dlircnutable
looking character early In the afternoon as
he was trying to dispose of a flno gold ring
at a second hand store. The policeman did
not arrest him nt the time , but shadowed
him In order to capture , If possible , a pal
whom he suspected ho had. He at last fol
lowed the supposed crook as far as the cor
ner of Bnndway nnd Fourth street , and
there. In company with Oillcor Murphy , ho
arrested the parties.
At the police station they gave the names of
Frank Kelscy and Fred Fink. Kolscy bad
In his jiockcu , two revolvers , a powder llask
and seven Mexican coins of anelcnt date.
Fink had two revolvers , n can of powder ,
two drills , a fuse and a blow pipe. The
whole tbing was as neat a kit of tools as the
most enthusiastic of safe blowers could wUh
fnr.
Jt is supposed that the two men are
the ones who did the Job at L. Harris'
bottling works on lower Broadway Satur
day night , although there Is nothing on their
persons that will assist In fastening the
crime on them. It Is not likely that they will
be allowed to go free , however , for If noth
ing can be proved against them here , there Is
a job In Omaha which will in all prob.ibllity
be laid nt their door. Last Saturday nleht
there was n safn blown open on Sherman
avenue In Omaha , nnd a lot of curious coins
were taken. Detective Hays of Omaha wa *
in the city yesterday nnd stated
that ho was not sure whether the coins that
were taken were Mexican or not , but if they
turn out to huvo oeen coins of that kind the
guilt of the two men will bo pretty thorough
ly established. The uarties who lost the
coins nro to be notified of the capture of the
suspects and will bo over In a day or two to
Investigate.
Another article that Is stipnosed to have
been stolen is a fine , large gold ring , with a
heavy seal , bearing the Initial "D. , " set with
chipped diamonds. This is also thought to
bo a relic of tno Sherman avenue expedition.
The pollco are well satisfied that they huvo
cotton hold of two desperate crooks , and
every effort will bo made to prove that they
are the parties wanted.

Masters on ISlufT Street Uncover
Indian Skeleton" .
r'or several weeks past workmen have been
jlasttng ou the hill just behind the residence
of Mr.V. . \V. Wallace on Bluff street. In
the course of the last three weeks no less
: han eight skeletons have been unearthed.
Six of them were of adults , while the other
two had belonged to small children.
The skeletons show unraistakiblo signs of
raving been those of Indians. With each
ono were found pieces of Indian blankets ,
some of which had been gaily decorated with
such ornaments as wcro dear to the Indian-
heart.
Ono ot the oodles had been burled in a
sitting posture , while the other had been lain
away to rest in the most approved modern
fashion , excepting that but ono had n coftln.
One of thosKoletons had evidently belonged to
one of the four hundred In Indian circles , as
his body hud boon honored oy being encased
in a rough onk box. With the bones was a
tomahawk and B large number of strings of
beads. All the bones were In a good state of
preservation. As fast as they were ex
humed they were made off with by
the workmen and by some small boys.
Sams of the.bonos , however , were kept out
sight and nre now lying In one corner of the
yard.
The Wallace hill has had something of a
record already as an ancient burial nlaco
About sixteen years ago u skeleton
of a whllu man was unearthed. It was
taken to a physician In the city who has i
something of a reputation aa a archaeologist
for examination. Ho said that the owner of
It had met his death by hanging. It was
supposed to have been the romiins ot ono of
the horse thieves who did so much to make
life In Potuwatturalo county interesting
during the early days , and who In all proba
bility caught his last view of the earth from
tbo summit of a long rope stretched taut.

General Manager Whitman States the
Position of the Company.
CHICAGO , May IS. The situation between
the Northwestern railroad company and Its
discharged switchmen remains unchanged.
The officials of the road say they will reemploy -
ploy such of the discharged men as they lire
satisfied will provo faitbful and oftlcieiit em
ployes , provided they make application for
reinstatement at once. The business of the
road continues to run as usual.
Gjneral Manager Whitman states the posi
tion of the companv as follows : "Such ex-
employes ol the company as are capable and
acceptable will be given preference In filling
all vacancies tbat occur In our switching
service. So long as those at present em
ployed are capable nnd are desirous of con
tinuing In our service they will be retained.
Those old discharged men who have engngot
the company in incessant troubles by foment
ing strikes will never again be employed b.\
this company. Hereafter the company's of
ficials and not the Switchmen's Mutual Aid
association will run the company's affairs. '
Many of the discharged men recognize the
fact that they will not bo taken back and are
seeking employment elsewhere.
Coal Operators Trj
L-nn , Pa. , May 18. A special from
Scottdale , Pa. , says : Operators are making
a most determined effort to force the men a
the minors' convention tomorrow to vote to
abandon the strike , while labor leaders on
tbo other hand luvo been among the men am
say they are practically unanimous In their
desire to continue out. The Frick and - McClure -
Cluro companies started the Kcdstono
Youneston , Hawkeye Valley and Ollphan
plants with a few men and say they wil
start five other plants this week. Men are
coming Into the region in carloads , and it Is
doubtful If the strikers cau stand the pressure
much longer. They are suffering for toe
necessities of life und hundreds have no roe
to call their own. Altogether if the men do
not vote to go back tomorrow it will bo
because ovcrpcrsnaded by the leaders or because
cause independent operators or some power
