OXB OP n.En's K\TIIIPUISIS. : :
J. D. Her , formerly of Omaha nnd now of
Kansas City , bus been hero several days in
consultation with capitalists interested in
the uUtillcry business In relation to the
establishment of a big iilatit. The Chicago
cage mon are enthusiastic for the
project , but on the mlvlco of llor
no immediate action will probably bo taken.
Speaking about the enterprise , Mr. Her
aid :
"It Is no nso to start a big distillery now ,
for corn is too nigh nnd it Is going up higher
than a kite. AV'lion corn finally locales on a
fair price tlio now distillery may bo formed.
As matters are now it is assured of success.
Within n week or so a plant will bo started
In St. Louis which will Use 5,000 bushels of
corn n clay. This , with the other non-trust
distilleries , bring up the total to within 10-
1000 bushels u day of what the trust , uses.
( Our plant would make up this balance. Then
I there would bo n crash some where. Certain
ly the trust could not control
nil the whisky if a rival concern
turned out mi equal amount of goodi. If the
now enterprise is started the big trust will
noon bo gasping for breath. "
Mr. Her doesn't talk quito as enthusiasti
cally about Kansas City as ho did when ho
went there from Omaha n couple of years
ngo. "Wo nro experiencing the effects of the
boom wo had several years ago. People
'overreached' Ibomsolvos , so to spenk , and
nro now undergoing the convalescing pro
cess. The corn fields which were thrown
on the market during the excitement are
corn ilclds still and Inside property hns been
affected by the depression in these insidolots ,
but on the Intter , lorthe mostpirt , the prices
nro linn. I Imvo no doubt that In u few
years wo shall begin to move forward at ns
lively a papo ns wo enjoyed some years neo ,
nlthough not In just the same way. The
days of wild cat land speculation nro over. "
TO MOVE ON OHIO.
It Is said the now people's party has do-
cldod to concentrate nil Its power of organ
ization this year m Ohio and Kentucky. The
fight in Ohio promises to bo the most inter
esting one. The first real struggle will take
place at the state convention of the farmers'
union nt Columbus next Tuesday , when an
effort will bo rondo to commit the union to
the third party. It has heretofore boon n
strong republican organization , but many of
its loaders nro now training with the new
Sarty. The republicans nro nwnro of the
anger nnd some of the best politicians In the
stuto will go there to try nnd prevent
nny endorsement of the people's party.
It is understood that .Mclvinloy
himself lias been urged to nttcnu.
If the union should declare for the third party
the defeat of McKinley for governor would
bo a foregone conclusion , ns the now pnrty ,
with the endorsement of the union , could poll
at least sovonty-llvo thousand votes in the
country districts ,
x DiminENcts or OPINION.
Mnvor Wnshburno and the directors of the
world's fair are diametrically opposed In
their opinions ns to who should boar the ex
pense of extra lire and pollco protection for
the exposition grounds. The world's ' fnlr
people Uilnk the city should pay out the
money , anil the mayor is equallv certain the
exposition ought to do it. The directors
ore mukini ; strenuous efforts to convert the
mayor to their way of thinking , but so far
Imvo met with no success.
AN OLD Hny'8 SUGGESTION.
An old Indy who has attained the ngo of 103
years and who belongs to a very respectable
family , called on the promoters of the world's
fair and suggested that they could not do bet
tor than make a collection of American's over
n hundred years old and show visitors to the
world's fnlr what this country can do In the
way of longevity.
ANOTHER WOltMl'S r.Ull MB.
Secretary Buttorworth today received a
telegram from the Austrlnn consul nt New
York saying that a statement was published
there to the effect that the world's fair would
liavo to bo postponed till ISOt , and asking if
the report was true. In reply President
Jiakor nnd Secretary Buttorworth sent a
dispatch denying that n postponement is
nocussarv and characterizing the report ns
false nnd probably malicious. , H Is supposed
that the publication grow out of an Interview
with ox-Mayor Cregier published In St.
Paul , In which ho expressed the opinion that
the fair could not got in shape for opening
in 1SVJ.
C1IICAC1O AGAINST TltH (1OVKKNMKNT.
In regard to n dispatch from Washington
that the war department will notify the city
to lomovo the center pier under the Canal
Rtreot bridge , said to bo an obstruction to
navigation , under penalty of $ tlT,000 every
month , Corporation Council Miller said : "No
eucb notice has yet been received by the city ,
mid if it should bo. Its authority would not
bo recognized. The city has too much nt
atnko to quietly submit to the claim of the
general government to n control of the river.
The attorney general's opinion is entitled to
much respect , but is not ndjudlciatlon and In
B matter of this great Importance the city
will recognize no authority but a Judicial
decree. "

Postoulco Inspector Stewart rocotved.'n detailed -
tailed report from Inspector Christian , In. ,
today regarding the arrest and Indictment of
John C. Newton , president of the DCS
Moincs it ICansat City railway for endeavor
ing to defraud tlio government In sending
bogus mall matter over his line in order to
got extra componsationfrom the government
on mall contracts. "It's one of the biggest
schemes to defraud the government over
wo unearthed , " sold Captain Stew nrt today ,
"nnd it is nil the more surprising because
Now ton is very wealthy and president of n
road down east as well M the head of the
Dos Momes lino. I've ' had Inspector Christ-
inn 6ut thcro for forty days and received
dally reports from him and It was dis
covered that the mail being sent over
the line consisted of packages of Now York
papers over a ycnr old. Newton's scheme
was to write to some of his friends along the
road that largo amounts of newspaper mall
would bo received by thorn , and hn asked
that they bo held. Tnls extra mall of course
allowed nn Incrcaro In the amount sent over
his line , and ns the government wns about to
weigh malls to strike an average for the pur
pose of making contracts for the next four
years , it is easy to see how the government
would have b'ccn cheated had the scheme
got through. Nou-toii had n friend at
Carnosvlllo , Mo. , to whom these papers were
Hont , and when ho received thorn ho redi
rected them over the line. If the plan had
gene through the government would have
been compelled to pay out nbout $ (0,000 ( , extra
in the four years of the contract.
HE MISTOOK HIS FATE.
Carter Harrison's love story , "Tho Secret
of the Ulg Hock , " will bo out In a few days.
It Is not surprising to find that dlvorco cuts
nn important figure In the story. The novel
advances the theory that n man cannot bo
happy until ho has found his "fate , " nnd
that for every man there Is a fate somewhere
In the world. The hero Is a rich southerner
named Foldcn , who marries a beautiful noico
to fulfill his father's dying request , but lives
unhappily with her nnd they separate. In ' .ho
meantime ho meets his fnto at u llower show
In London , nnd after n dlvorco from his wlfo
ilnds a woman whom ho mistakes for his
" /nto , " but who proves to bo the "fate's"
youncor sister. They are married nnd come
to Chiongo. Whllo spending the summer
near the straits of Mackinaw ho is accident
ally drowned , nnd with the assistance of a
negro servant his wife commits suicide , nnd
is buried beside him at Bli : Hook. Later tlio
negro dies and also reposes near the same
monument. Ilig Kock , with Its double

DUN'S ' REVIEW OF THE WEEK ,
Continued Outgo of Gold Has a Depressing
Influence on Business ,
IRON MARKET WEAK AT PITTSBURG ,
Trade nt Western Cities Quiet Hut
Very Hopeful Satisfactory lie-
ports front the South In
crease In Failures.
NDW YOUK , May 23. K. G , Dun St Co.'a
Weekly Itovlcw of Trade says :
The continued outgo uf gold has n depress
ing Influence. The fall In the prices of all
commodities has been about 3.S per cent In
two weeks. The local money market' Is
fairly supplied nt moderate rates , as are
other eastern and western markets almost
without exception , but at n few southern
points money Is clcwo or tight ana much cau
tion in extending credits prevails. The
treasury has paid out during the week but
fOOOOOOmorothan it has taKen in of ordinary
currency , but bas also put out $200,000 moro
fractional silver. At niostplacos trndo seems
healthy and there is not more than the usual
complaint about collections.
The iron business is rather weakened at
Pittsburg by the prospect of increased sup
plies and is very dull nt Cleveland , but soino-
what more demand is seen nt New York nnd
Philadelphia for various forms of manufac
tured iron. Steel rails do not share the im
provement nnd nro flat , nor is structural iron
active , nor , in fact , the ron Of building ma
terials , but thcro is more demand for plates ,
and bar , which hns been sold ut { l.tio , now
commands fl.TSif.
The coal business Is still threatened by pro
duction far beyond agreements nnd the price
does not seem to warrant the advance pro
posed for Juno 1.
The woolen industry is waiting without
nny improvement In goods to Justify the de
mand for higher prices on now wool , though
thcro is cheering activity in llannols.
At Boston trade In leather was Improving
until the Davis failure was announced , but
wns then checked , thouch it is not believed
that prices or credit will uo affected beyond a
few days.
Hides are dull with some concessions , and
the boot nnd shoo trade Is generally dull.
At Philadelphia collections uro very bad in
groceries.
Pittsburg notes that railroad orders are
held back waiting for crop results , and , while
window glass duoi well , illnt glass has slack
business.
At Cleveland dry poods , groceries , hard
ware nud shoes Improve fairly , but machin
ery. hiniDor , iron oronnd clothing nro dull.
At Cincinnati the tobacco trade is brisk ,
but the carriage trade is not quite up to lost
year's.
Detroit notoi good prospects , though mar
gins nro close.
At Chicago dry poods.sales exceed last year
considerably , as do sales of clothing , and
there are very fair country orders for shoos ;
wool receipts grtln over last year 50 per cent ;
dressed ) beef , cheese , butter and hides gain ,
but in cured moats there Is a decline of r > 0
per cent and in lard , Hour and barley of 33
jj
per cent. Corn gains 3.J per cunt.
Corn reports at Chicago are very satisfac
tory , and the same Is true at St. Paul. Omaha
and many other points where the recent
rnlns have mndo wonderful Improvements.
Indeed the r.iln of Saturday was probably
worth some hundreds of millions to the coun
try , for an extended drouth seemed near.
Trade at western cities Is quiet , but very
hopeful. At the south also crop reports nro
highly satisfactory , and trade , althoush only
fair or oven sluggish now , and at Memphis
generally depressed , is expected to bo excel
lent hereafter. No material Injury has boon
sustained from drouth tn the region tributary
to Now Orleans by cotton , sugar or rlco , but
the heavy rains have done great good. In
general It may bo said that the crop outlook
has rarely boon brighter than It is now , nnd
this gives the strongest reason for hope that
any present depression in trade will bo tem
porary.
The business failures that occurred
throughout the country during the last seven
days numbir2")4 failures , as compared \vlth
U3T Inst week. For the corresponding week
of last voar the llguros were 'JJJ.

ISmlowmoiit FiintlH of the Episcopal
Dloecse Secured by HUhopClnrkflon.
Speaking .of the difference ot opinion
among lending Episcopal church pcoplo with
regard to a division of the endowment funds
now in the treasury of the Nebraska diocese ,
a prominent member of the diocese said yes
terday to Tin : BF.B :
"I can't see how nny man who claims to bo
a member of the Episcopal church in Ne
braska can bo' so ignorant as to sav that a
part of the endowment fund over which the
difference of opinion has arisen wns contrib
uted by people who reside in the torritorv
now In the diocese of the Pintle. It is a fact ,
known to every well Informed member of the
church , that only n very small portion of the
endowment fund was contributed by any
body in Nebraska or the west. This fund
was almost entirely the gift of the Into
Bishop Clnrkson's friends in the cast. The
income of iho fund was to bo devoted to the
salary of the bishop nnd it is scarcely sulll-
don * to pay Bishop Worthinpton's salary.
Tho'salary of Bishop Graves , who is malting
an effort to have this fund divided , is paid
from the general missionary funds from out
side of the state.
"I understand that Bishop Graves will hold
that a part of the Trinity Cathedral fund
ought to go to the dlocoso of iho Plntto ulso ,
nnd that would bo very little more unreason
able than to claim a share of the endowment
fund , The now dlocoso is n missionary di
vision , nnd will bo assisted by general mis
sionary funds. It has no just claims upon
the endowment fund of tbo original dioceso. "

An Ordinance Favoring Thoni

The ordinance that was introduced Into the
council had u first nnd second reading and is
now In the hands of Mr. Moreurty , chairman
ot the judiciary committee , is an innocent
looldtiR nlTntr. It contains half n dozen lines
and provides that section 21 , chapter ? ' . ) of
ConuoH's compiled ordinances of the city of
Omahn bo reuealeil.
Yostordnv morning the members who are
not on the "insldo" discovered tbo true moan-
In i ; of the proposed low.
The section that this ordinance proposes to
repeal Is the ono that provides that saloons
shall bo closed between the hour of midnight
and 4 o'clock In the morning. When this
was discovered there was a hustling to unite
the forces , but the mori who favor the passage -
sago simply stood bjtmnd laughed nt the
others. t *
The ordinance will bo reported buck next
Tucsdav night with thoYccommondnllon that
It do pass. The friend ) of the measure claim
that they will not only puss It , but will put It
over the major's vptOjjirovldlng that gentleman -
man withholds bis approval.
Mayor Gushing. In ponklng upon the sub
ject , said : "It U not my custom to talk of
things that may happen , but I have no hesi
tancy In .spcaklngor this. It Is only by hearsay
that I know anything nbout n movement
being on foot to repeal the midnight closing
ordinance. However , If such nn ordinance
should pass 1 would tilM certainly veto It ,
oven If I knew that eighteen coundlmcn
would ride It over my objections.
"I not only think such tin ordinance would
bo In opposition to the provisions of the state
law , but I certainly know that it would re
sult In an injuty to good government.
"At the present time the saloon men are
allowed to keep their places of business open
twenty out of every twenty-four hours , end 1
think that is sufficient. "

STIMj TlIKY'llK NOT HAPPY. B
Hoard of Public .Works Not Slnglo
Minded Over Street Sweeping.
The board of public works field ono of the
old tlmo sessions yesterday and as on pre
vious occasions , the chairman allowed his
temper to got the bettor of his Judgment.
Monday night the street -
swooping- con
tractor cleaned the paved streets in the
t'lclnlty of Sixth and Plorco. Tuesday
morning the Inspector refused to
ncccpt . the work nnd ordered the
streets roswopt. Tuesday night the
swcopors wont over the ground nsaln ,
cleaned up n portion of the sweepings when
the heavy rain of Wednesday morinntr came
on , drove them off and washed onto tha
pavement n quantity of mud from the sur
rounding hills. The contractor nskod to bo
allowed ono estimate for the two sweepings.
The chairman insisted that the contractor's
word was the only evidence that the street
had been swept.
Major Furay and Egbert favored allowing
ono estimate.
Tlio chairman Insisted that the dirt that
ind accumulated on the streets last winter
ins not bcon removed.
Major Furay rotorteJ by saying : "If that
Is the case the blame should bo attached to
the board of public works. "
This was denied by tbo chairman. The
motion was put and carried , Furay and Eg
bert voting to allow ono estimate for the two
sweepings.
The chairman voted "no" and explained
that the street Is not clean.
For grading Davenport street from For
tieth street to the Belt line there were nlno
bids , none of them being above 13 cents per
cubic yard.
The contract was awarded to Knight
Brothers & Barnes nt 10 2-5 cents.
The plumblcg Inspector reported a number
of leaks in water mains.
By resolution C. E. Fanning & Co. wcro
ordered to commence work nnd continue the
construction of the North Omaha sewer , as
the Injunction has been dissolved.
The usual number of reserves wcro pre
sented and allowed.
The matter of Fanning & Slavln , partnln
ing to the giado on Soutli Tenth street , was
referred back to the city council , the board
deciding that it has no authority to allow the
claim. >
Last season Fanning & Slavln took the
contract to grade the street. There was not
enough earth along thostreet , to nmko the
necessary 1111. They hauled the dirt from an
adjoining lot and now ask for $ . > in. The

a radius of liftoon miles from the center
of the city of Now York there is u popu
lation considerably in excess of 3,000,000
people , or more than two-thirds that ol
the city of London.
In the olllcial language of the report ,
"next to London , Now York nnd its
suburbs form the largest city of the
globo. "
Says Mr. Porter : "Tho people within
this llftcon-milo radius , are in effect cit
izens of Now York , so far na business
and social interests go , although polit
ically they live in different cities , coun
ties nnd states. "
These figures are conclusive ; there can
no lontror bo a doubt that Now York is ,
and must over remain , the financial and
commercial metropolis of the western
world.
