TC . -
Ono of tbo neatest lobs of professional safe
blowing over done In tbls city was revealed
yesterday morning at the Prize moat market ,
run by H H. Howard , at 1210 North Twenty-
fourth street. Not only were the cracksmen
exports but tlioy secured about $ U3 In
money , and a lot or prlvato papers belonging
to Mr. Howard to reward their labors.
They effected n.n entrance iby forcing a
roar window , tbo instrument used being evi
dently n heavy men ana a ball chisel , by
means of which they pulled out tbo hook
with which the window was fastened
at thu bottom. Once inside they
directed tholr attention to the safe ,
which was in the oftlco , a
BxlO apartment shut oft from the market
proper by a colling and glass partition.
Two iiuartor-lnch holes were drilled in the
lower lult-bana corner of the door , about four
" Inches from the edge and live Inches from the
bottom. The explosive used was nitro
glycerine , nnd it won't require a post-mortem
to tell what Is the matter with that safe door.
U was a beautiful job of dissection , oven if
it was done In a hurry.
Tbo entire Inner portion of the safe door
viia blown from the outer stool plate Just ns
Bhok .is a whistle , and It couldn't have been
done any smoother if the whole thing had
boon cheese and the cracksmen had gonn at
it with a knlfo. The eighteen hoary rivets
that held the door proper to the lining were
out oft as neatly as you please , and the lock
was completely demoralized.
So far as snfo-blowlngs are concerned It wai
an elaborate success , nuu the contents of tbo
safe were at the mcroy of the marauders.
They helped themselves with tbo greatest
liberality.
The ohlsol was ngntn called Into play ,
nd the drawers and tholr contents
' wore soon lu tholr possession. They
pried out the steel money chest ,
nd took It away bodily , together with n
drawer containing Mr. Howard's prlvato
papers , although the latter receptacle WAS
lound empty this morning In the back yard
of a residence across the alloy , whorb It had
boon thrown by the cracksmen , who had
apparently departed by way of the alloy to
Twonty-llfth street.
. , T < ' uj ° * n < wll ° ls Howard's employer ,
lives in the rooms over the market , and was
awakened about 3 o'clock In the morning by
omo noise , probably the explosion , but could
not locate it. His wife also hoard It and
called his attention to It , Ho raaje un his *
mind that It was caused by the shifting of
ice In tbo lee box on the lloor below
Ho had gotten twice
up on previous occa
sions to Investigate ' noises coming from this
source , so did not 'pav any moro attention to
it ether than to listen for some tlmo , but
heanl nothing except n man who sootnod to
bo ixusing along tbo sklownllc whittling. Ho
now believes that the whistler was one of the
burglars , who was stationed outside for the
very purpose thnt ho served so well.
A two-monthi'-old bull pup wan chained In
onu t'nriior of the market , and Drown says ho
listened fora IO.IR tlmo to hoar the pup whine ,
which he was certain It would do if there was
anyone In the market. Ho can only account
tor the dog's quietness on the theory that ono
of tbo burglars potted it while another did
the work.
It Is perhaps Just as well for Drown that ho
did not go down and Interrupt tbo proceed
ings , as n largo sloak-knlfo was found lying
n a shelf near tbo safe , where it had un
doubtedly boon placed for use lu case of uu
buexpocted Intrusion. It bad bcon taken
from tbo ether sldo of the room where it
ad been loft the night before with all the
other Uulvos and cleavers , and had not boon
used lu any way by the burglars.
A tfai jot wo * loft burning whau the mar-
ket was closed up , but the visitors had turned
it out.
The police are looking for an ox-convict who
was released from the uonltentlary Friday and
was soou banging about tbo market Tues
day.It .
It was only by tno merest accident that the
cracksmen aid not make a haul of over $200.
Mr. Howard Is also engaged in the wholesale
meat business with Mr. Porrin of
South Omaha , mid sold several bcovos
yesterday. About 0 o'clock last
evening Mr. Pcrrln happened to
drlvo by the marlcot and stopped to got some
money to pay for another bunch of cattle
this morning. This loft only about ono-
fourtb as much money In the safe as would
otherwise have been the caso.
The market was burclarizcd some time ago
when the callers got through the same win
dow , but they did not make such a success-
tut haul as in tbls case.
Burglars also attempted to outer the
grocery store of Hotzel Brothers , un Cum-
ing uoar Twenty-fourth , but wro frightened
away by the family living upstairs who heard
them as they were at work ni a roar window.
There wore three of the men , and it is sup
posed to bo the same gang that later visited
Howard's place.
Mot a Footpul.
Simplv because ho Is the possessor of a
pair of good trusty logs. Ed J. Parratt Is
alive and Is enabled to toll of an oxporleuco
that bo had with a footpud Tuesday night.
Parratt resides at SOS I Farnam street and
just before midnight ho was on his way home
from the council mealing , where ho attended
as a spectator.
Ho was walking along the north side of
Farnntn street and was just passing the
Hltohcock flats , between Twentieth and
Twenty-second streets , when a heavy-sot ,
masked man jumped from a doorway , and ,
with an oath exclaimed : "Thoro ho Is. "
Parratt turned nrouud and faced the follow
and a * ho did so , the masked man struck at
him with a knifo. Pitrnitt lot out an un
earthly yell , dashed Into the middle of the
street and started for homo at a breakneck
speed without waiting for a formal introduc
tion to his assailant.
When once safely locked In bis room Par
ratt made an Inventory of bis injuries and
found that they consisted of a deep cut In the
loft shoulder of his coat. While the blade of
tbo knlfo did not ponotrnto the skin , Parrott
states that for several hours ho imagined
that bo had been stabbed to the heart.
Another job was done br omo "strong
arm" man. who hold up J. C. Williamson at
Fourteenth street and the Union Pacific
tracks and relieved him of a watch and W7 In
nionoy.
All of tbeso cases wcro reported to the po
lice , but the chief donlod all knowledge of
thorn , while his underlings protected that no
such work bud boon dono.

Removal of the HodlcH From the Old
Cemetery.
Under n recent order of the war depart
ment the remains of soldiers buried in thu
cemeteries at abandoned poiU nro being re
moved to the government cometorios.
In the department of the Plntto the bodies
burled at Forts Bridget- and Laramlo are
being removed to the national cemetery at
McPherson , Nob. , one of tbo prettiest , places
on the continent.
The contractor who is doing the work H
just now engaged In removing from the
special cemetery , eight miles east of Fort
Laramlo , the remains of thirty soldiers mas
sacred by the Indians , on the spot nearly
forty years ago.
This slaughtered squad was the command
of the bravo but reckless Lieutenant Oration.
Ho was sent with twenty-ulna mon to re
cover from the Sioux a herd of cattle driven
east from Salt Lalto valley , tbo property of
Mormons. While the parties were parleying
Grattou thought ho detected an Indian about
to commit a treacherous act mid ran tbo redskin -
skin through with his sword. The enrugod
Sluux fell upon the llttlo command and killed
every motnbor. As the Indians told the
story Gratton was entirely to blame. An In
vestigation < was tuado by the Government and
the same conclusion reached.
When u scouting party reached thu scene
there were still frostiovldoncosofa most des
perate struggle. Gratton and his mon fought
for tholr lives like demons , and sent many a
warrior to the happy hunting grounds , The
lunlan loss was never learned , but wai cer
tainly heavy. Tholr party , numbering ittO
lighting men , crossed the Laramlo plains and
wont into the mountains. The chief at the'
head did not appear at a wblto settlement for
some years , fearing a trial and execution.
But , the story was known to the western In-
dlans and was told all over the country by
them.
In only a few cases were the bodies ot
soldiers mutilated , though many were
stripped. The reds admired the valor of the
whites and refrained from desecration ,

MUIIDKKRD TO 1'IIBVBXT PUnUOATIOX OF FACTS.
Tbo murder of Editor W. J. Ponroso of the
Dally journal at Butte , Mont. , is still en
veloped in a mystery which seems no nearer
solution than It did on the morning after the
tragedy occurred. And this notwithstanding
tbo intense public interest taiccn in the case
and tbo widespread determination to bring
tbo guilty parties to justice.
Mr. Joseph D. Yonart , for some tlmo man
aging editor of the Helena Journal , and later
connected with papers in Butte , says thnt of
all the theories so far advanced the most rea
sonable Is that the editor was assassinated to
prevent the threatened publication ot facts
which would have ruined the reputations of
some prominent people.
"Several people who stood qulto high In
business and political circles were personally
Interested in keeping from the public the
facts about certain Umber transactions out
there , " said Mr. Yonurt. "Ponroso investi
gated the subject , and It was to prevent the
publication of the story about the steal that
ho was shot down. Of course this Is only a
theory , but these who are host acquainted
with the real condition of affairs out there
are of the opinion fhat It is thotruo ono. "
roi.iTiOAL roaiTio.v OF TIIK MOIIMONS.
"Tho Mormons are noitlior ( lend nor sleeping -
ing , and the talk about tbo dlsbanamont of
the people's party is nil humbug. "
This is from Manager P. H. Lannan , of
the Salt Lake Tribune , who has been attend
ing a meeting of the world's fair board of
control , of which no Is a mombor. "Tho
Mormons are the same pooplo-thoy were
when they canro to Utah In 1847 , so far as
ideas and purposes are concerned , " bo con
tinued , "and this talk about the dissolution
of this party Is only a now subterfuge. They
are after statehood , and have hit upon this
dtsDRiidmont scbomo to secure it.
"Mlna you , they don't want statehood any
longer , so they say ; the petition must coma
from tiio outside. Tbo sohonio Is like this :
The people's party will apparently go to
pieces , and if the liberals also separate and
form the old party lines , part of thu
saints will co Into the repub
lican camp and part , of them
will swear fealty to the democratic cause.
Then each party will bo confidentially informed -
formed that it may have Utah's three elec
toral votes In caso.statehood Is socurod. Then
probably Judge Jndd and Parley Williams
and some ether good democrats will carry
the petition for statehood to the democratic
house and Judge Bennett might load n simi
lar delegation to the republican senate.
Statehood once secured , the Mormons would
have things In tholr own nands , for they
have a majority In the neighborhood of "O.OOU ,
and although the old party distinctions ot re
publicans and democrats might bo kept up ,
hnlf the republicans would be Mormons and
half tbo democrats of the same faith , und
everything from the governor's ofllco down
would bo controlled and operated by the saints.
You can Imagine what a pleasant plnco Utah
would bo for the gentiles. Wo should sim
ply have the old conditions of things back
again with the very sorlous difference that
there would bo no longer the veto of a gov
ernment appointee to chock any contemplated
outrage In tno alia no of legislation ,
"U Is hard to believe that men , who forever
over forty years have never dared disobey
the loaders of the church , have suddenly bo-
coino Independent , or thai these leaders who
have ox-communicated Mormons for daring
to think for themselves , bavo voluntarily re
leased control. It Is not common Henso or
common experience , and no sane man In
Utah believes It , Some few may bo led away
by un Itch for ofllco , but the great body of
thu liberal party will see its true Interest in
sticking togotbor and disregarding party
lined. "

Parties on the ether sldo of the fight are
up In arms and claim that the petitioners are
obstructionists. They claim that when the
grade is completed as established it will boone
ono of tbo finest streets lu the city and that
the hill will bo but live foot to the 100.
There was another object In having the
street graded. A number of the property
owners had completed a deal with the nlroet
car comp.iny. An electric line was to have
boon built down Eighteenth street , from
Loavcnwortu to Plorcn , thence west to
Twenty-fourth and south to Shooly station ,
on the condition that the Leaven worth street
hill wan cut to the present established grado.
Should the Injunction hold or the gr.ido
changed from 5 foot to the 100 the line will
not bo built.
Since the issuance of the Injunction John
A. Wakelleld has been busy trying to work
n compromise. Ho proposes to cut three fuel
less on the point of tbo hill and ralso the full
three feet In the vicinity ot Miuon strcot ,
The proposition is received with favor bv

thu object Is accomplished the suit will bo
dismissed and the grading continued.
