CIIHCH Scttlud.
Tno affairs of the defunct Nebraska flro
Insurance company worn aired In the district
court yesterday afternoon. The cao came
up before Judge Wnfcoley on nn application
for the appointment of a receiver.
Kccelver Albright , who wai appointed
hortly after the company went to the wall ,
vrns tired of bis Job and lia-l threatened to
resign.
Attorucy General Hastings appeared for
the state , Attorney Erwln for the company
ona Attorney Smytho for Albright. Knvln
opened the case by stating that Mr. Madden
wants the affairs of the company closed up
and the assets distributed among ; ibo stock
holders.
The attorney general was with him upon
the question of closing , but wanted to see
the money paid to the policy holders.
Judge Wukeicv stated that the Ipclslnturo
bas designated who shall look alter the Inter
ests of the policy holders and that the com
mencement of the Madden suit was brought
In the Interest of tno stockholders.
Krwln Insisted that the attorney general
had > right to Intervene , us the company
was ' . < .n cured for.
The attorney general then rovlowod the
case , referring to the condition of the com
pany , stating that at the tltuo of the pretended
tended sale the company hold $50,000 of good
notes , t i.OOO of cash and JW.OOO of bonds.
Durinir the month that the now man
agement had control of the com
pany $1,000 In premiums was received
and no losses paid. A mouth later
when Madden asked for a receiver , the cash
and bonds had disappeared and only $30.000
of worthless notes remained to pay liabilities
amounting to $12,000,000.
Erwln insisted that MiulJon had exceeded
his authority In bringing suit against the
company , and that Hastings , the attorney
general , was out of his plnco when ho inter
vened. After this , ho argued a motion , ask
ing that the attorney general bo ousted , The
motion was overruled.
Krwin urged that Hastings had not made
a showing tending to provu tlio Insolvency of
tbo company. Judge Wakolcy held that the
showing was suQIclont.
At this point Keceivcr Albriirht Insisted
that ho bo relieved. Mr. Krwtn favored the
move , but stated that it may not be necessary
to dissolve the company , "us ho expects to
show that all the allegations regarding the
affairs of the company nro false and that It is
in good shape financially.
Hastings thought differently and proposed
the nnmo of Douglas B. Welpton for the
receivership.Volpton was formerly the ad
juster for the company , and his appointment
tvas opposed by Erwln , who stated that ho is
n party iu interest , and that the company
will bring suit against him ere many days.
In behalf of the company ho named S. J.
Hoircll , a coal dealer.
Both sines Insisted upon thrlr men and
Judge Wakeloy took the matter under nu-
vlsoraent. Ho will hand down his decision
tomorrow uiornlng.

Edward C. Games , the state oil inspector ,
.X appointed by Governor Thnyer , will appear
In the district- court before Judge Doano at
. 10 O'clock this morning and ask to hnvo the
court vacate the restraining order that was
Issued at the Instance of Louis Hclmrud ,
state oil inspector under Hon. Jumes B.
Boyd's short reign as governor of Nebraska.
Lost Saturday Louis Heimrod Hied his
petition and a restraining order preventing
Carnoa from performing the duties of tbo of
fice , wo3 made. At a late hour yesterday
afternoon Games filed nn answer and
seta up the statement that on April 7
the oCL'co of state oil inspector
was vacant. Ho denies that Hoimrod
on April 10 , filed a bond of I'JO.OOO and then
entered upon the discharge of the duties of
the office. In addition to this bo denies that
Hoimrod has possession of , or has any inter
est in the affairs of the ofllce , as bo has been
removed therefrom on.or . about May 0 , 1S91.
The answer charges that on May 0 he ,
Carnes , with Governor Thnyer , wcut to the
offlco of the oil inspector , and finding It In
possession of ono John S. IClttlo , Governor
Tbnyor demanded possession of the keys ,
which wcro turned over , by the said Kittle ,
\vheronpon ho , tno snld'Carnes , having pro-
vlously filed his bond in the sum of fiO.OOO ,
entered upon the dUuhargo of his duties as a
ate ofilccr.
The answer states that Holmrod's petition
contains no equity ; states no cause of action ,
and should not bo considered by the court.
In another paragraph Carncs swears that the
petition filed by Heimrod should be dismissed
as the fuels stated therein are untrue , and
that the court has no Jurisdiction to hear ana
determine tbo caso.
Governor Tlmycr comes to the relief
of Carnes , and In n lengthy aQldavit
.cites the time and manner by
which ho secured his office , and
that the same day Hoiinnrl was duly and
legally removed from the olllco to which no
had boon appointed. Ho then in company
with Carnes went to Heimrod's ofllca in the
ptato l-.ouso and not finding him in. demanded
tbo keys and possession from Kittle , The
papers and everything contained In tbo ofilco
voro turned over to Cornea , after which bo
was put in possession.
These nnidavitn nro supported by all the
deputies and clerks who nro now In tbo em
ploy of Games.

Divorced Uugpiio Cowlos AVrilH Miss
Clnlre Hentrluc liiicimclilnni.
NBW YOIIK , May ! . The Hurald says :
There was a rather remarkable wedding In
this town last Saturday nlghtand ono wblcb
recalls post events nnd n record of marital
felicity very vividly. The bridegroom was
Eugene H. Cowles , son of the late owner
and editor of the Cleveland Leader , who became -
came notorious about a year .igo t > y abduct
ing his llttlo daughter from his wife's homo
after she had refused to llvo with him. This
occurrence was followed by other sensational
developments , which ended In Cowles being
shot by his wife's brother at Montreal.
Airs. Cowles was the beautiful Miss Allco
Halo of Euclid avenue , Cleveland , nnd the
object of her husband's adoration was a
young woman with the Frnueo-ljerman
nnmo of Clalro Beatrice Luonsuhlass. Last
Thursday Cowlos whoso troubles with his
wife began years ago , learned from bis law-
jors In the west that she had obtained nn
ulttoluto divorce from him ana tbat ho was
free to marry again. As a result of this
news Cowles Immediately had a conference
with his friends , among whom was Judge
Murat Mastorson , who Happened to be stay
ing with his wife at the Sturtcvant house ,
and E. K. Wlllnrd the stock broker.
Mr. Willard agreed to do what ho could
for his friend Co'.vles , nnd Saturday evening
ho called at the Manhattan club iuul asked
Judge Beach If ho had any objections to
marrying Mr. Eugene II. Cowles to Miss
Clalro Beatrice Luonscbloss. Judco Beach
replied that ho had very serious objections
to performing such a ceremony and referred
Mr.Vlllnrd and his friends to Dr. Iloughton
of "tho Little Church Around the Corner , "
nnd to a number of civil Justices. Mr Mas-
turson then went back to his hotel and en
gaged a carrlngo to go to the church men-
tioi.cfl. The wedding party consisted of Mr.
and Mr ? . Mastorson , nnotucr lady and three
gentlemen , beside * the bridal couple. The
drive to Dr. Houghton's was a very short
ono , and that gentleman had no objection to
performing the corcmony until ho learned
that Mr. Cowlos had been divoiced from his
ilrstwlfe. Then the doctor gently refused
to perform the ceremony.
At this point some ono suggested trying
Justice Alfred Stockier , and the llttlo proces
sion wended Its way to the Stecklor mansion
on Second avenue , near Seventh street. The
llrst intimation that Mr. Alfred Sleekier had
of the tribulations of thU couple who wcro
having such hard work to got married was
when ho was told two gentlemen wished to
see him In the reception room. The strangers
were well dressed , but as soon us thuy had
stated their business Justice Sleekier po
litely informed thcmtnat ho could do nothing
for them ns ho believed the performance of
the murriago ceremony and the incidental
perquisites belonged to the clergy. Ho
thereupon directed them to the Kev. Francis
J. Schneider , who lived close by , at No. 100
Second avenue.
Mr. Schneider thought nt first ho would
have to refuse their request , owing to his
duties ut the church , but finally co' ented to
perform tbo ceremony there in his llttlo par.
lor , nnd In n few moments Mr. Eugene II ,
Cowles and Miss Clalro Beatrice Uucno-
srhlass wcro man and wife. In tilling out
the marrlago certificate tno brldn.gavo her
age as twenty-four , her place of birth New
Orleans , nnd nor place of residence ns Bollo-
vlllo , N. J. , Mr. Cowles gave his age ns
thirty-seven , his occupation as an engineer
and his place of residence ns Lockport , N.
V. Ho said his mother's name was Elizabeth
Hutchlns and that ho was born In Cleveland
As soon ns the ceremony was performed th
wedding party went to the St. James hotel
and partook of a champagne supper and latci
returned to their apartments at the Oriental
hotel.

you'll hear : "That beats anything I , ever saw. " "That's " "
good enough to wear anywhere. "Say ! Jiml that suit is just
exactly as good as the one John paid fifteen dollars for. " Once in a while some doubting fellow comes in expecting to
find about an eight dollar suit for s"eVen fifty. He picks up one worth fifteen dollars , examines it carefully , says con

Another big sensation In connection wtth
the administration of county affairs Is not Im
probable. Every member of the county
board has been served with a subpoena to
appear before the grand jury today. The
subpoenas wore made out In blank so far as
the subject of the Investigation was con
cerned.
"It Is all splto work , " said ono commis
sioner , "and Is the culmination ot tbo bad
blood that exists between the members of the
board. "
Ono of the most prevalent opinions was
that County Architect Wcgrann was to bo
Investigated , threats of which have boon
recently made.
Tliero is much speculation as to tbo ulti
mate object ot the Inquiry. It is known that
there are two factious lit the board and the
supposition is that ouo faction has Insti
gated the investigation into the doings of tbo
other in the letting of certain contracts
which have been the subject of public criti
cism. So far the examination has boon con -
tliied to inquiries as to alleged Incompetence
and favoritism ou the part of the county ar
chitect.

The Appointment of A merlunii Ulshopy
May Lead to Trouble.
NEW YoRK.May SO. The attempt of a com-
mltteo of Catholics of Germany , Belgium ,
Austria , Italy and Switzerland to influence
tbepopo to appoint for the United States
bishops of the same nationality as the Catho
lic immigrants who settle In this countryhas
stirred up leading Catholics here , and there
promises to bo a lively time before the mat
ter is settled. The first intimation of the
scticmo cume to this country in tbo form of n
cablegram published on May U. It told that
M. Cohensloy had presented a memorial to
the pope , signed by the members of the com
mittee. The memorialists claimed that only
Irish priests wore made bishops In this coun
try , and that they paid llttlo attention to the
spiritual wants of the Catholic immigrants of
other nations. The petition was prepared at
a conference at Luzcrno. Ouo of the signers
was said to bo a Canadian priest , ouo father
Villcnouve.
It was seen at once by lending Catholics
hero that if the petition of tbo memorialists
was granted the progress of the Catholic
church In tnls country might tin retarded ,
tattler Smith is of tbo opinion that our In-
differcnco In Uio matter of immigration is ro-
sponslblo in a measure for tlio attempt to
force foreign bishops on this country. "Tno
different natlonaltles , " ho says , "havo boon
allowed such privileges that they have como
to think tuo transplanting of Quebec , Ger
many , Poland , Hungary and Syria , wltb tbolr
languages , traditions , and hoirurchiea , n very
feasible scticmo so feasible that they are not
learning a single point in the Knglisb
language , are strong upholders of mouarchlal
institutions nnd utterly Ignorant of American
opinion. An Idea luu taken root among the
different races on our soil that thu entire
stock , native nnd foreign , can use tholr race
tongue as the common language and still bo
Americans. "
